Item 1-Business

VOXX International Corporation ("Voxx," "We," "Our," "Us," or the "Company") is a leading international manufacturer and distributor in the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories industries. The Company has widely diversified interests, with more than 30 global brands that it has acquired and grown throughout the years, achieving a powerful international corporate image and creating a vehicle for each of these respective brands to emerge with its own identity. We conduct our business through sixteen wholly-owned subsidiaries: Audiovox Atlanta Corp., VOXX Electronics Corporation, VOXX Accessories Corp., VOXX German Holdings GmbH ("Voxx Germany"), Audiovox Canada Limited, Voxx Hong Kong Ltd., Audiovox International Corp., Audiovox Mexico, S. de R.L. de C.V.

VOXX International Corporation was incorporated in Delaware on April 10, 1987 under its former name, Audiovox Corp., as successor to a business founded in 1960 by John J. Shalam, our Chairman and controlling stockholder. Our extensive distribution network and long-standing industry relationships have allowed us to benefit from growing market opportunities and emerging niches in the electronics business.

The Company operates in three segments based upon the Company's products and internal organizational structure. The operating segments consist of the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories segments. The Automotive segment designs, manufactures, distributes and markets rear-seat entertainment devices, satellite radio products, automotive security, remote start systems, mobile multimedia devices, aftermarket/OE-styled radios, car-link smartphone telematics applications, collision avoidance systems and location-based services. The Premium Audio segment designs, manufactures, distributes and markets home theater systems, high-end loudspeakers, outdoor speakers, business music systems, cinema speakers, flat panel speakers, Bluetooth speakers, soundbars, headphones and DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) compatible devices. The Consumer Accessories segment designs, manufactures, markets and distributes remote controls; wireless and Bluetooth speakers; karaoke products; iris identification and biometric security related products; personal sound amplifiers; smart-home security and safety products; infant and nursery products; activity tracking bands; healthcare wearables; and A/V connectivity, portable/home charging, reception and digital consumer products.

Acquisitions and Dispositions

Our most recent acquisition and disposition transactions are discussed below:

On April 18, 2017, Voxx acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Rosen Electronics LLC for cash consideration of $1,814. In addition, the Company agreed to pay a 2% fee related to future net sales of Rosen products for three years. The purpose of this acquisition was to increase the Company's market share and strengthen its intellectual property related to the rear seat entertainment market. Details of the tangible and intangible assets acquired are outlined in Note 2 "Business Acquisitions and Dispositions" of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

On August 31, 2017 (the "Closing Date"), the Company completed its sale of Hirschmann Car Communication GmbH and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Hirschmann”) to a subsidiary of TE Connectivity Ltd ("TE"). The consideration received by the Company was €148,500. The purchase price, at the exchange rate as of the close of business on the Closing Date approximated $177,000 and is subject to adjustment based upon the final working capital. The Hirschmann subsidiary group, which was included within the Automotive segment, qualified to be presented as a discontinued operation in accordance with ASC 205-20 beginning in the Company's Fiscal 2018 second quarter ending August 31, 2017. Refer to Note 2 "Business Acquisitions and Dispositions" of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the sale of Hirschmann.

Strategy

Our objective is to grow our business both organically and through strategic acquisitions. We will drive the business organically by continued product development in new and emerging technologies that should increase gross margins and improve operating income. We are focused on expanding sales both domestically and internationally and broadening our customer and partner base as we bring these new products to our target markets. In addition, we plan to continue to acquire synergistic companies that would allow us to leverage our overhead, penetrate new markets and expand existing product categories. Notwithstanding the above, if the appropriate opportunity arises, the Company will explore the potential divestiture of a product line or business.

The key elements of our strategy are as follows:

Continue to build and capitalize on the VOXX family of brands. We believe the "VOXX" portfolio of brands is one of our greatest strengths and offers us significant opportunity for increased market penetration. Today, VOXX International has over 30 global brands in its portfolio, which provides the Company with the ability to bring to market products under brands that consumers know to be quality. In addition, with such a wide brand portfolio, we can manage channels and sell into multiple outlets as well as leverage relationships with distributors, retailers, aftermarket car dealers and expeditors, and to global OEMs. Finally, we are open to opportunities to license some of the brands as an additional use of the brands and as a growth strategy.

Continue to maintain diversified, blue chip customer base. Voxx distributes products through a wide range of specialty and mass merchandise channels and has arrangements with tier-1 and tier-2 auto OEMs. OEM products account for approximately 20% of Fiscal 2019 sales from continuing operations. The top-five customers of the Company represented 25% of sales from continuing operations, and no single customer accounted for over 10% of Fiscal 2019 sales.

Capitalize on niche product and distribution opportunities in our target markets. Throughout our history, we have used our extensive distribution and supply networks to capitalize on niche product and distribution opportunities in the automotive, premium audio and consumer accessories categories. We will continue that focus as we remain committed to innovation, developing products internally and through our outsourced technology and manufacturing partners to provide our customers with products that are in demand by consumers.

Combine new, internal manufacturing capabilities with our proven outsourced manufacturing with industry partners. For years, VOXX International employed an outsourced manufacturing strategy that enabled the Company to deliver the latest technological advances without the fixed costs associated with manufacturing. In recent years, the Company has added manufacturing capabilities to produce select product lines, such as rear-seat entertainment systems, security related products, and high-end speakers. This

5

blend of internal and outsourced manufacturing enables the Company to drive innovation, control product quality and speed time-to-market.

Use innovative technology generation capabilities to enable us to build a robust pipeline of new products. Voxx has invested significantly in R&D. The Company uses a mix of internal and external R&D, internal and external manufacturing, and has a number of valuable trademarks, copyrights, patents, domain names and other intellectual property. Through Voxx's focus on R&D, the Company has built a pipeline of new products across all three segments.

Leverage our domestic and international distribution network. VOXX International Corporation has a highly expansive distribution network. Our distribution network, which includes OEM's, car dealers, automotive manufacturers, various types of retailers and chain stores, mass merchandisers, distributors, e-commerce platforms, system integrators, communication network providers, smart grid manufacturers, banks, cinema operators, healthcare providers and equipment manufacturers, the U.S. military, and private security providers should allow us to increase our market penetration. We intend to capitalize on new and existing distribution outlets to further grow our business across our three operating segments, both domestically and abroad.

Grow our international presence. We have an international presence through our local subsidiaries in Europe, as well as operations in Canada and China. We also continue to export from our domestic operations in the United States. Our strategy remains to diversify our exposure to any particular geography, while expanding our product offerings and distribution touch points across the world.

Pursue strategic and complementary acquisitions. We continue to monitor economic and industry conditions in order to evaluate potential strategic and synergistic business acquisitions that are expected to allow us to leverage overhead, penetrate new markets and expand our existing business distribution. Over the past several years, the Company has employed an M&A strategy to build its brand portfolio and enhance its product offering in higher margin product categories, while at the same time, exiting lower margin and commoditized product lines, resulting in improved bottom-line performance. The Company is focused on continuing to grow organically, but may pursue opportunistic acquisitions to augment our automotive (primarily with OEM accounts), Consumer Accessories and Premium Audio segments.

Maintain disciplined acquisition criteria. Virtually all of our acquisitions have been made to strengthen our product offerings, customer reach and growth potential across our operating business segments. Our strategy remains to acquire complimentary businesses, products and/or assets in our Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories operating segments. Additionally, acquisitions should have a gross margin structure equal to or higher than our consolidated gross margins, and we will continue to look for acquisitions where we can leverage our corporate overhead and resources. Furthermore, it is important that management remains with Voxx as part of the acquisition, as their legacy expertise, knowledge of both the inner workings of their respective companies and the end-markets they serve are paramount to successfully running operations and achieving growth. We also pursue acquisitions that will be accretive for the Company and its shareholders in the first year such acquisitions are made.

Rapidly integrate acquired businesses. One of the more compelling factors as to why acquired businesses choose VOXX International Corporation is that we are perceived as both a financial and strategic partner. We are operators, and companies view their association with us as a positive for the future of their businesses in that we can provide resources and support that others in our sector, or in the Private Equity community, cannot. Our strategy upon acquisition, and in the years that follow, is to leverage our corporate strengths and integrate acquisitions into our operations. We provide accounting, MIS, warehouse and logistics support, as well as a host of value-added services that enable acquired companies to lower their cost basis and improve profitability. In recent years, we have consolidated facilities in our German operations and in Indiana, where we brought our RCA® and Klipsch operating groups together.

Improve bottom-line performance and generate sustainable shareholder returns. The Company has instituted an aggressive strategy in recent years to shift its product mix to higher-margin product categories, while controlling costs and strategically investing in its infrastructure. Additionally, during Fiscal 2019, the Company began a comprehensive SKU rationalization program to discontinue certain product lines and streamline the Company’s consumer accessory product lines to focus on offerings with longer life cycles, more sustainable gross margins, and better growth potential. The Company remains focused on growing its business organically, continuing to enhance its gross profit margins and leveraging its fixed overhead structure to generate sustainable returns for its stockholders.

Industry

We participate in selected product categories in the automotive, premium audio and consumer accessories markets within the electronics industry. These markets are large and diverse, encompass a broad range of products and offer the ability to specialize in niche product groups. The introduction of new products and technological advancements are the major growth drivers in these

6

markets.  Based on this, we continue to introduce new products across all segments, with an increased focus on niche product offerings.

We believe our segments have expanding market opportunities with certain levels of volatility related to domestic and international markets, new car sales, increased competition by manufacturers, private labels, technological advancements, discretionary consumer spending and general economic conditions.  Also, all of our products are subject to price fluctuations, which could affect the carrying value of inventories and gross margins in the future.

Patents, Trademarks/Tradenames, Licensing and Royalties

The Company regards its trademarks, copyrights, patents, domain names, and similar intellectual property as important to its operations. It relies on trademark, copyright and patent law, domain name regulations, and confidentiality or license agreements to protect its proprietary rights. The Company has registered, or applied for the registration of, a number of patents, trademarks, domain names and copyrights by U.S. and foreign governmental authorities. Additionally, the Company has filed U.S. and international patent applications covering certain of its proprietary technology. The Company renews its registrations, which vary in duration, as it deems appropriate from time to time.

The Company has licensed in the past, and expects that it may license in the future, certain of its proprietary rights to third parties. Some of the Company's products are designed to include intellectual property, licensed or otherwise obtained from third parties. While it may be necessary in the future to seek or renew licenses relating to various aspects of the Company's products, the Company believes, based upon past experience and industry practice, such licenses generally could be obtained on commercially reasonable terms; however, there is no guarantee such licenses could be obtained at all. We intend to operate in a way that does not result in willful infringement of the patents, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights of other parties. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that a claim of infringement will not be asserted against us or that any such assertion will not result in a judgment or order requiring us to obtain a license in order to make, use, or sell our products.

License and royalty programs offered to our manufacturers, customers and other electronic suppliers are structured using a fixed amount per unit or a percentage of net sales, depending on the terms of the agreement. Current license and royalty agreements have duration periods which range from 1 to 12 years or continue in perpetuity. Certain agreements may be renewed at termination of the agreement. The Company's license and royalty income is recorded upon sale and amounted to $1,382, $1,538 and $1,669 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

We sell our products under OEM arrangements with domestic and/or international subsidiaries of automobile manufacturers such as Ford, Chrysler, General Motors, Toyota, Kia, Mazda, Subaru and Nissan. These arrangements require a close partnership with the customer as we develop products to meet specific requirements.  OEM products accounted for approximately 20% of net sales from continuing operations for the year ended February 28, 2019, 15% for the year ended February 28, 2018, and 17% for the year ended February 28, 2017.

No one customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's sales for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 or February 28, 2017.

We also provide value-added management services, which include:

• sales training and customer packaging,

• in-store display design,

• installation training and technical support,

• product repair services and warranty,

• consignment,

• specialized manufacturing.

We have flexible shipping policies designed to meet customer needs. In the absence of specific customer instructions, we ship products within 24 to 48 hours from the receipt of an order from public warehouses, as well as owned and leased facilities throughout the United States, Canada, China, Hong Kong, the Netherlands, and Germany. The Company also employs a direct ship model from our suppliers for select customers upon their request.

Product Development, Warranty and Customer Service

Our product development cycle includes:

• identifying consumer trends and potential demand,

9

• responding to those trends through product design and feature integration, which includes software design, electrical engineering, industrial design and pre-production testing. In the case of OEM customers, the product development cycle may also include product validation to customer quality standards, and

• evaluating and testing new products in our own facilities to ensure compliance with our design specifications and standards.

Utilizing our company-owned and third-party facilities in the United States, Europe and Asia, we work closely with our suppliers throughout the product design, testing and development process in an effort to meet the expectations of consumer demand for technologically-advanced and high-quality products. Our Auburn Hills, Michigan and Orlando, Florida facilities are both IATF 16949:2016 certified, and our Orlando, Florida facility is ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 9001:2008 certified, all of which require the monitoring of quality standards in all facets of business. The Orlando, Florida facility is also Ford Q1 certified, which is a certification awarded to Ford suppliers who demonstrate excellence beyond the ISO certifications in certain critical areas.

We provide product warranties for all of our product lines, which primarily range from 30 days to three years. The Company also provides limited lifetime warranties for certain products, which limit the end-user's remedy to the repair or replacement of the defective product during its lifetime, as well as warranties for certain vehicle security products for the life of the vehicle for the original owner. To support our warranties, we have independent warranty centers in the United States and Europe.  Our customer service group, along with our Company websites, provide product information, answer questions and serve as a technical hotline for installation help for end-users and customers.

Suppliers

We work directly with our suppliers on industrial design, feature sets, product development and testing in order to ensure that our products and component parts meet our design specifications.

We purchase our products and component parts from manufacturers principally located in several Pacific Rim countries, including China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore, as well as the United States, Canada, Mexico and Europe. In selecting our manufacturers, we consider quality, price, service, reputation, financial stability, as well as labor practices, disruptions, or shortages. In order to provide coordination and supervision of supplier performance such as price negotiations, delivery and quality control, we maintain buying and inspection offices in China and Hong Kong.  We consider relations with our suppliers to be good and alternative sources of supply are generally available within 120 days.  We have few long-term contracts with our suppliers and we generally purchase our products under short-term purchase orders.  Although we believe that alternative sources of supply are currently available, an unplanned shift to a new supplier could result in product delays and increased cost, which may have a material impact on our operations.

Competition

The electronics industry is highly competitive across all product categories, and we compete with a number of well-established companies that manufacture and sell similar products. Brand name, design, advancement of technology and features as well as price are the major competitive factors within the electronics industry.  Our Automotive products compete against factory-supplied products, including those provided by, among others, General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler; large Tier 1's, such as Denso, Panasonic, LG, Continental, Lear, and Bosch; as well as against major companies in the automotive aftermarket, such as Sony, Panasonic, Kenwood, Directed Electronics, Autopage, Myron and Davis, Phillips, Insignia, and Pioneer.  Our Premium Audio products compete against major companies such as Polk, Definitive, Bose, Sonos, Sonance, and Bowers and Wilkins. Our Consumer Accessories product lines compete against major companies such as Sony, Phillips, Emerson Radio, Jasco, Belkin and Private Label Brands.

Financial Information about Foreign and Domestic Operations

The amounts of net sales and long-lived assets attributable to foreign and domestic operations for all periods presented are set forth in Note 13 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included herein.

Equity Investment

We have a 50% non-controlling ownership interest in ASA Electronics, LLC ("ASA") which acts as a distributor of mobile electronics specifically designed for niche markets within the automotive industry, including: RV's; buses; and commercial, heavy duty, agricultural, construction, powersport, and marine vehicles.

Employees

10

As of February 28, 2019, we employed 885 people worldwide, of which 36 were covered under collective bargaining agreements.  We consider our relations with employees to be good as of February 28, 2019.

Item 1A-Risk Factors

We have identified certain risk factors that apply to us. Each of the following risk factors should be carefully considered, as well as all of the other information included or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-K. If any of these risks, or other risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe not to be significant, develop into actual events, then our business, financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations could be adversely affected. If that happens, the market price of our common stock would likely decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Our businesses are highly competitive and face significant competition from Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and direct imports by our retail customers.

The market for mobile electronics, premium audio products and consumer accessories is highly competitive across all product lines. We compete against many established companies, some of whom have substantially greater financial and engineering resources than we do. We compete directly with OEMs, including divisions of well-known automobile manufacturers, in the auto security, mobile video and accessories markets. We believe that OEMs have diversified and improved their product offerings and place increased sales pressure on new car dealers with whom they have close business relationships to purchase OEM-supplied equipment and accessories.  To the extent that OEMs succeed in their efforts, this success would have a material adverse effect on our sales of automotive entertainment and security products to new car dealers.  In addition, we compete with major retailers who may at any time choose to direct import products that we may currently supply.

OEM sales are dependent on the economic success of the automotive industry.

A portion of our OEM sales are to automobile manufacturers. In the past, some domestic OEM manufacturers have reorganized their operations as a result of general economic conditions. There is no guarantee that additional automobile manufacturers will not face similar reorganizations in the future. If additional reorganizations do take place and are not successful, it could have a material adverse effect on a portion of our OEM business.

Sales in our businesses are dependent on new products, product development and consumer acceptance.

Our businesses depend, to a large extent, on the introduction and availability of innovative products and technologies. If we are not able to continually introduce new products that achieve consumer acceptance, our sales and profit margins may decline.

The impact of future selling prices and technological advancements may cause price erosion and adversely impact our profitability and inventory value.

Since we do not manufacture all of our products and do not conduct a majority of our own research, we cannot assure you that we will be able to source technologically advanced products in order to remain competitive. Furthermore, the introduction or expected introduction of new products or technologies may depress sales of existing products and technologies. This may result in declining prices and inventory obsolescence. Since we maintain a substantial investment in product inventory, declining prices and inventory obsolescence could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.

Our estimates of excess and obsolete inventory may prove to be inaccurate, in which case the provision required for excess and obsolete inventory may be understated or overstated.  Although we make every effort to ensure the accuracy of our forecasts of future product demand, any significant unanticipated changes in demand or technological developments could have a significant impact on the value of our inventory and operating results.

We purchase a significant amount of our products from suppliers in Pacific Rim countries and we are subject to the economic risks associated with inherent changes in the social, political, regulatory and economic conditions not only in these countries, but also in other countries we do business in, including our own.

We import most of our products from suppliers in the Pacific Rim. Countries in the Pacific Rim have, in the past, experienced significant social, political and economic upheaval and are also near known earthquake fault zones, which are vulnerable to damage from earthquakes and tsunamis. Due to the large concentrations of our purchases in Pacific Rim countries, particularly China, Hong Kong, South Korea, Vietnam, Malaysia and Taiwan, any adverse changes in the social, political, regulatory, or economic conditions in these countries may materially increase the cost of the products that we buy from our foreign suppliers or delay shipments of products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, our dependence on foreign suppliers

11

forces us to order products further in advance than we would if our products were manufactured domestically. This increases the risk that our products will become obsolete or face selling price reductions before we can sell our inventory.

The United States, Mexico, and Canada have entered into a signed, but unratified trade agreement called The United States- Mexico - Canada Agreement (“USMCA”) that will govern trade in North America and replace the North American Free Trade Agreement ("NAFTA"). Compared to the previous NAFTA trade agreement, USMCA will increase environmental and labor regulations and will create incentives for more U.S. production of cars and trucks and impose a quota for Canadian and Mexico automotive production. Although we have determined that there have been no current immediate effects on our operations with respect to USMCA, we cannot predict future potentially adverse developments in the political climate involving the United States, Mexico and Canada and thus these may have an adverse and material impact on our operations and financial growth.

President Donald J. Trump and his administration have also introduced tariffs on China, with China imposing retaliatory tariffs on certain products from the United States. On May 9, 2019 President Trump imposed additional tariffs on China and expanded the products affected by these tariffs, with China threatening to retaliate with additional tariffs against the U.S. In addition, on January 23, 2017, President Trump signed a presidential memorandum to withdraw the U.S. from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a global trade agreement intended to include the United States, Canada, Mexico, Peru and a number of Asian countries. Such tariffs, duties, border taxes or other assessments imposed on the products we import into the United States will increase the total cost of these products and may decrease demand for such products. In addition, we may not be able to fully pass the added cost of such tariffs, taxes, duties or assessments on to our customers, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

A commercial market for biometrics technology is still developing. There can be no assurance our iris-based identity authentication technology will be successful or achieve market acceptance.

A component of our strategy to grow revenue includes expansion of our iris-based identity authentication solutions into commercial markets. To date, biometrics technology has received only limited acceptance in such markets. Although the recent appearance of biometric readers on popular consumer products, such as smartphones, has increased interest in biometrics as a means of authenticating and/or identifying individuals, commercial markets for biometrics technology are still developing and evolving. Biometrics-based solutions compete with more traditional security methods including keys, cards, personal identification numbers and security personnel. Acceptance of biometrics as an alternative to such traditional methods depends upon a number of factors including:

• the cost, performance and reliability of our products and services and the products and services offered by our competitors;

• the continued growth in demand for biometrics solutions within the government and law enforcement markets as well as the development and growth of demand for biometric solutions in markets outside of government and law enforcement;

• customers’ perceptions regarding the benefits of biometrics solutions;

• public perceptions regarding the intrusiveness of these solutions and the manner in which organizations use the biometric information collected;

• public perceptions regarding the confidentiality of private information;

• proposed or enacted legislation related to privacy of information;

• customers’ satisfaction with biometrics solutions; and

• marketing efforts and publicity regarding biometrics solutions.

We face intense competition from other biometrics solutions providers.

A significant number of established companies have developed or are developing and marketing software and hardware for biometrics products and applications, including facial recognition and fingerprint biometrics, that currently compete with or will compete directly with our iris-based identity authentication solutions. We believe that additional competitors will enter the biometrics market and become significant long-term competitors, and that as a result, competition will increase. Companies competing with us may introduce solutions that are competitively priced, have increased performance or functionality or incorporate technological advances we have not yet developed or implemented.

There is no guarantee that patent/royalty rights will be renewed, or licensing agreements will be maintained.

Certain product development and revenues are dependent on the ownership and or use of various patents, licenses and license agreements. If the Company is not able to successfully renew or renegotiate these rights, we may suffer from a loss of product sales or royalty revenue associated with these rights or incur additional expense to pursue alternative arrangements.

12

A portion of our workforce is represented by labor unions. Collective bargaining agreements can increase our expenses. Labor disruptions could adversely affect our operations.

As of February 28, 2019, 36 of our full-time employees were covered by collective bargaining agreements. We cannot predict whether labor unions may be successful in organizing other portions of our workforce or what additional costs we could incur as a result.

We depend on our suppliers to provide us with adequate quantities of high-quality competitive products and/or component parts on a timely basis.

We have few long-term contracts with our suppliers. Most of our products and component parts are imported from suppliers under short-term purchase orders. Accordingly, we can give no assurance that:

• our supplier relationships will continue as presently in effect;

• our suppliers will be able to obtain the components necessary to produce high-quality, technologically-advanced products for us;

• we will be able to obtain adequate alternatives to our supply sources, should they be interrupted;

• if obtained, alternatively sourced products of satisfactory quality would be delivered on a timely basis, competitively priced, comparably featured or acceptable to our customers;

• our suppliers have sufficient financial resources to fulfill their obligations;

• our suppliers will be able to obtain raw materials and labor necessary for production;

• shipments from our suppliers will not be affected by labor disputes within the shipping and transportation industries;

• our suppliers would not be impacted by natural disasters directly or via their supply chains; and

• as it relates to products we do not manufacture, our suppliers will not become our competitors.

On occasion, our suppliers have not been able to produce the quantities of products or component parts that we desire. Our inability to manufacture and/or supply sufficient quantities of products that are in demand could reduce our profitability and have a material adverse effect on our relationships with our customers. If any of our supplier relationships were terminated or interrupted, we could experience an immediate or long-term supply shortage, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We have few long-term sales contracts with our customers that contain guaranteed customer purchase commitments.

Sales of many of our products are made by purchase orders and are terminable at will by either party. We do have long-term sales contracts with certain customers; however, these contracts do not require the customers to guarantee specific levels of product purchases over the term of the contracts. The unexpected loss of all or a significant portion of sales to any one of our large customers could have a material adverse effect on our performance.

Our success will depend on a less diversified line of business.

Currently, we generate substantially all of our sales from the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories segments.  We cannot assure you that we can grow the revenues of our Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories segments or maintain profitability. As a result, the Company's revenues and profitability will depend on our ability to maintain and generate additional customers and develop new products.  A reduction in demand for our existing products and services would have a material adverse effect on our business. The sustainability of current levels of our Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories segments and the future growth of such revenues, if any, will depend on, among other factors:

• the overall performance of the economy and discretionary consumer spending,

• competition within key markets,

• customer acceptance of newly developed products and services, and

• the demand for other products and services.

We cannot assure you that we will maintain or increase our current level of revenues or profits from the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories businesses in future periods.

We depend on a small number of key customers for a large percentage of our sales.

The electronics industry is characterized by a number of key customers. Specifically, 25% of our sales from continuing operations were to five customers in Fiscal 2019, 26% in Fiscal 2018, and 28% in Fiscal 2017. The loss of one or more of these customers could have a material adverse impact on our business.

13

We plan to continue to expand the international marketing and distribution of our products, which will subject us to risks associated with international operations, including exposure to foreign currency fluctuations.

As part of our business strategy, we intend to continue to increase our sales, including our international sales, although we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so. Approximately 12% of our net sales from continuing operations currently originate in markets outside the U.S. While geographic diversity helps to reduce the Company's exposure to risk in any one country or part of the world, it also means that we are subject to the full range of risks associated with significant international operations, including, but not limited to:

• changes in exchange rates for foreign countries, which may reduce the U.S. dollar value of revenues, profits and cash flows we receive from non-U.S. markets or increase our supply costs, as measured in U.S. dollars, in those markets;

• exchange controls and other limits on our ability to import raw materials or finished product or to repatriate earnings from overseas;

• political and economic instability, social or labor unrest or changing macroeconomic conditions in our markets;

• foreign ownership restrictions and the potential for nationalization or expropriation of property or other resources; and

• other foreign or domestic legal and regulatory requirements, including those resulting in potentially adverse tax consequences or other imposition of onerous trade restrictions, price controls or other government controls.

These risks could have a significant impact on our ability to sell our products on a competitive basis in international markets and may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

In an effort to reduce the impact on earnings of foreign currency rate movements, we engage in a combination of cost-containment measures and selective hedging of foreign currency transactions. However, these measures may not succeed in offsetting any negative impact of foreign currency rate movements on our business and results of operations. For example, since 2010, Venezuela has been designated as hyperinflationary and the resulting currency devaluations in Venezuela in that initial year affected our business and results of operations. The government of Venezuela has also devalued its currency several times since 2013, which, as discussed in the next section, has also affected our business and results of operations.

Substantial political and economic uncertainty in Venezuela puts our local assets at risk.

We have a subsidiary in Venezuela, whose operations are currently suspended due to the economic and political climate in that country. We hold fixed assets at this subsidiary and have incurred impairment related to our long-lived assets in Venezuela in the past, as well as charges totaling $3,473 during Fiscal 2019, bringing the net book value of these assets to $0 as of February 28, 2019. The Company intends to continue to hold these assets with the hope of recovering value from them in the future; however, if conditions continue to deteriorate, we may be at risk of government confiscation of these assets.

A decline in general economic conditions could lead to reduced consumer demand for the discretionary products we sell.

Consumer spending patterns, especially discretionary spending for products such as mobile, consumer and accessory electronics, are affected by, among other things, prevailing economic conditions, energy costs, raw material costs, wage rates, inflation, consumer confidence and consumer perception of economic conditions. A general slowdown in the U.S. and certain international economies or an uncertain economic outlook could have a material adverse effect on our sales and operating results.

Conditions in the global economy, the geographic markets we serve, and the financial markets may adversely affect us.

Concerns persist regarding the lingering effects of the European debt crisis and the ability of certain Eurozone countries to meet future financial obligations; the overall stability of the Euro and the suitability of the Euro as a single currency, given the diverse economic and political circumstances within individual Eurozone countries; and the considerable uncertainty relating to the economic and regulatory effects of the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union (commonly referred to as "Brexit"), which could lead to long-term volatility in the currency markets and could result in long-term detrimental effects on the value of the British Pound Sterling. There have also been concerns regarding slower growth in the Chinese economy and other Asian economies, as well as the economic effect of tensions in the relationship between China and surrounding Asian countries. These concerns or market perceptions regarding these and related issues could adversely affect the value of the Company's Euro-denominated assets and obligations. In addition, concerns over the effect of these financial issues on financial institutions in Europe, China and globally could have an adverse impact on the economy generally, and more specifically on the consumers' demand for our products.

Changes in the retail industry could have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition.

14

In recent years, the retail industry has experienced consolidation, store closures, bankruptcies and other ownership changes. In the future, retailers in the United States and in foreign markets may further consolidate, undergo restructurings or reorganizations, or realign their affiliations, any of which could decrease the number of stores that carry our products. Changing shopping patterns, including the rapid expansion of online retail shopping, have adversely affected customer traffic in mall and outlet centers. We expect competition in the e-commerce market will intensify. As a greater portion of consumer expenditures with retailers occurs online and through mobile commerce applications, our brick-and-mortar wholesale customers who fail to successfully integrate their physical retail stores and digital retail may experience financial difficulties, including store closures, bankruptcies or liquidations. We cannot control the success of individual malls, and an increase in store closures by other retailers may lead to store vacancies and reduced foot traffic. A continuation or worsening of these trends could have a material adverse effect on our sales, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Our stock price could fluctuate significantly.

The market price of our common stock could fluctuate significantly in response to various factors and events, including:

• operating results being below market expectations,

• announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors,

• loss of a major customer or supplier,

• changes in, or our failure to meet, financial estimates by securities analysts,

• industry developments,

• economic and other external factors,

• general downgrading of our industry sector by securities analysts,

• inventory write-downs, and

• ability to integrate acquisitions.

In addition, the securities markets have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations over the past several years that have often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

We invest, from time to time, in marketable securities and other investments as part of our investing activities. These investments fluctuate in value based on economic, operational, competitive, political and technological factors. These investments could be subject to loss or impairment based on their performance.

The Company has incurred other-than-temporary impairments on its investments in the past, and continues to monitor investments in non-controlled corporations, as applicable, for potential future impairments. In addition, there is no guarantee that the fair values recorded for other investments will be sustained in the future. During the year ended February 28, 2019, the Company incurred impairment charges related to its investment held at cost, less impairment. See Note 1(f) for impairment charges recorded and related disclosure.

From time to time, we provide funding to certain entities in the form of loans. Based on the performance of these entities, these loans may become partially or entirely uncollectible.

The Company has, from time to time, provided funding to certain entities that it does not own or control, in the form of collateralized loans. Should the borrowers default on the loans and should the collateral be insufficient to satisfy the total outstanding balance owed to Voxx, we may not be able to recover 100% of these loan balances. During the year ended February 28, 2019, certain notes receivable held by the Company became uncollectible, resulting in an impairment charge related to these notes. See Note 1(f) for impairment charges recorded and related disclosure.

We are subject to governmental regulations.

We always face the possibility of new governmental regulations which could have a substantial effect on our operations and profitability. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act contains provisions to improve transparency and accountability concerning the supply of certain minerals, known as “conflict minerals,” originating from the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjoining countries. There are costs associated with complying with these disclosure requirements, including for due diligence to determine the sources of conflict minerals used in our products and other potential changes to products, processes or sources of supply as a consequence of such verification activities. These rules could adversely affect the sourcing, supply and pricing of materials used in our products. As there may be only a limited number of suppliers offering "conflict free" conflict minerals, we cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain necessary conflict minerals from such suppliers in sufficient quantities or at competitive prices. Also, we may face reputational challenges if we determine that certain of our products contain minerals

15

not determined to be conflict free or if we are unable to sufficiently verify the origins for all conflict minerals used in our products through the procedures we implement.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act could adversely affect our business and financial condition.

On December 22, 2017, President Trump signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA"). The TCJA contains significant changes to corporate taxation, including reduction of the corporate tax rate from a top marginal rate of 35% to a flat rate of 21%, additional limitation on the tax deduction for interest expense and executive compensation, accelerates business asset expensing, eliminates net operating loss carrybacks, and makes significant changes to the taxation of foreign earnings including the imposition of a one-time repatriation tax on accumulated foreign earnings at reduced rates regardless of whether they are repatriated and imposes a minimum tax on global intangible low tax income (“GILTI”). The IRS is continuing to issue regulatory guidance and many U.S. states are still determining how to incorporate these federal tax law changes or portions thereof into their tax codes. Further, our effective tax rate may fluctuate as a result of the TCJA in future reporting periods.

We continue to examine the impact these changes may have on our business. Notwithstanding the reduction in the corporate income tax rate, the overall impact of the TCJA is uncertain, and our results of operations, cash flows and financial conditions, as well as the trading price of our Common Stock, could be adversely affected.

We are increasingly dependent on the continuous and reliable operation of our information technology systems, and a disruption of these systems, resulting from cybersecurity attacks or other events, could adversely affect our business.

We increasingly depend on our information technology, or IT, infrastructure in order to achieve our business objectives. If we experience a problem that impairs this infrastructure, such as a computer virus, a problem with the functioning of an important IT application, or an intentional disruption of our IT systems by a third party, the resulting disruptions could impede our ability to record or process orders, manufacture and ship in a timely manner, or otherwise carry on our business in the ordinary course. Any such events could cause us to lose customers or revenue and could require us to incur significant expense to eliminate these problems and address related security concerns.

Computer viruses, malware, and other “hacking” programs and devices may cause significant damage, delays or interruptions to our systems and operations or to certain of the products we sell, resulting in damage to our reputation and brand names. They may also attack our infrastructure, industrial machinery, software or hardware causing significant damage, delays or other service interruptions to our systems and operations. “Hacking” involves efforts to gain unauthorized access to information or systems or to cause intentional malfunctions, loss or corruption of data, software, hardware or other computer equipment. In addition, increasingly sophisticated malware may target real-world infrastructure or product components, including certain of the products that we currently or may in the future sell by attacking, disrupting, reconfiguring and/or reprogramming industrial control software.Although the Company has business continuity plans in place, if these plans do not provide effective alternative processes on a timely basis, the Company may suffer interruptions in its ability to manage or conduct its operations, which may adversely affect its business.  The Company may need to expend additional resources in the future to continue to protect against, or to address problems caused by, any business interruptions or security breaches.  Any business interruptions or data security breaches, including cybersecurity breaches resulting in private data disclosure, could result in lawsuits or regulatory proceedings, damage the Company’s reputation or adversely impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

A data privacy breach or failure to comply with data privacy laws could damage our reputation and customer relationships, expose us to litigation risk and potential fines and adversely affect our business.

As part of our normal operations, we collect, process, transmit and where appropriate, retain certain confidential employee and customer information, including credit card information. There is significant concern by consumers and employees over the security of personal information, consumer identity theft and user privacy. Despite the security measures we have in place, our facilities and systems, and those of our third-party service providers, may be vulnerable to security breaches, cyber-attacks, acts of vandalism, computer viruses, misplaced or lost data, programming and/or human error, or other similar events. As a result of security breaches at a number of prominent companies, the media and public scrutiny of information security and privacy has become more intense and the regulatory environment has become more uncertain. Any security breach involving the misappropriation, loss or other unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, whether by us or our vendors, could result in significant legal and remediation expenses, severely damage our reputation and our customer relationships, harm sales, expose us to risks of litigation and liability and result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, changing privacy laws in the United States, Europe and elsewhere, including the adoption by the European Union of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), create new individual privacy rights and impose increased obligations on companies handling personal data. The federal privacy and security regulations issued under HIPAA require our facilities to comply with extensive requirements on the use and disclosure of protected health information and to implement and maintain administrative, physical, and technical

16

safeguards to protect the security of such information. Consequently, we may incur significant costs related to prevention and to comply with laws regarding the protection and unauthorized disclosure of personal information, or significant penalties for the violation of these laws and regulations.

We are responsible for product warranties and defects.

Whether we outsource manufacturing or manufacture products directly for our customers, we provide warranties for all of our products for which we have provided an estimated liability. Therefore, we are highly dependent on the quality of our suppliers’ products.

If we experience an increase in warranty claims, or if our costs associated with such warranty claims increase significantly, we will begin to incur liabilities for potential warranty claims after the sale of our products at levels that we have not previously incurred or anticipated. In addition, an increase in the frequency of our warranty claims or amount of warranty costs may harm our reputation and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We must comply with restrictive covenants in our debt agreements.

Our existing debt agreements contain a number of covenants, which limit our ability to, among other things, borrow additional money, pay dividends, dispose of assets and acquire new businesses. These covenants also require us to maintain a specified fixed charge coverage ratio. If the Company is unable to comply with these covenants, there would be a default under these debt agreements, should we have debt outstanding. Changes in economic or business conditions, results of operations or other factors could cause the Company to default under its debt agreements. A default, if not waived by our lenders, could result in acceleration of our debt and possible bankruptcy.

We may be unable to collect amounts owed to us by our customers.

We typically grant our customers credit on a short-term basis. Related credit risks are inherent as we do not typically collateralize receivables due from customers. We provide estimates for uncollectible accounts based primarily on our judgment using historical losses, current economic conditions and individual evaluations of each customer as evidence supporting the receivables valuations stated on our financial statements. However, our receivables valuation estimates may not be accurate and receivables due from customers reflected in our financial statements may not be collectible. Our inability to perform under our contractual obligations, or our customers’ inability or unwillingness to fulfill their contractual commitments to us, may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We provide financial support to one of our subsidiaries through an intercompany loan agreement and may need to secure additional financing for our own operations, but we cannot be sure that additional financing will be available.

We have an intercompany loan agreement with our majority owned subsidiary, EyeLock LLC, which is expected to continue to require additional funding beyond one year. In funding the loan to EyeLock LLC, we have less cash flow available to support our domestic operations and other activities. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows in the future to support our operations and service our debt as a result of funding EyeLock LLC, we may be required to refinance all or a portion of our existing debt, as applicable, or to obtain additional financing. There can be no assurance that any refinancing will be possible or that any additional financing could be obtained on acceptable terms. The inability to service or refinance our existing debt or to obtain additional financing would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity, and results of operations.

Our capital resources may not be sufficient to meet our future capital and liquidity requirements.

We believe our current funds and available credit lines would provide sufficient resources to fund our existing operations for the foreseeable future. However, we may need additional capital to operate our business if:

• market conditions change,

• our business plans or assumptions change,

• we make significant acquisitions,

• we need to make significant increases in capital expenditures or working capital,

• our restrictive covenants do not provide sufficient credit, or

• we need to continue to provide financial support to EyeLock LLC for an extended period of time.

17

We have recorded, and may record in the future, goodwill and other intangible assets as a result of acquisitions, and changes in future business conditions could cause these investments to become impaired, requiring substantial write-downs that would reduce our operating income.

We evaluate the recoverability of recorded goodwill and other intangible asset amounts annually, or when evidence of potential impairment exists.  The annual impairment test is based on several factors requiring judgment. We have experienced significant impairment charges in past years and in the current fiscal year (see Note 1(k)). Additional future impairment may result from, among other things, deterioration in the performance of our business or product lines, adverse market conditions and changes in the competitive landscape, and a variety of other circumstances. The amount of any impairment is recorded as a charge to our statement of operations. We may never realize the full value of our goodwill and intangible assets, and any determination requiring the write-off of a significant portion of these assets may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our cash and cash equivalents could be adversely affected if the financial institutions in which we hold our cash and cash equivalents fail.

Our cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and highly liquid money market funds with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. We maintain the cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions. Some deposits with these banks exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance limits or similar limits in foreign jurisdictions. While we monitor daily the cash balances in the operating accounts and adjust the balances as appropriate, these balances could be impacted if one or more of the financial institutions with which we deposit fails or is subject to other adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets. To date, we have experienced no loss or lack of access to our invested cash or cash equivalents; however, we can provide no assurance that access to our invested cash and cash equivalents will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the financial and credit markets.

If our sales during the holiday season fall below our expectations, our annual results could also fall below expectations.

Seasonal consumer shopping patterns significantly affect our business. We generally make a substantial amount of our sales and net income during September, October and November. We expect this trend to continue. December is also a key month for us, due largely to the increase in promotional activities by our customers during the holiday season. If the economy faltered in these periods, if our customers altered the timing or frequency of their promotional activities or if the effectiveness of these promotional activities declined, particularly around the holiday season, it could have a material adverse effect on our annual financial results.

Our business could be affected by unseasonal or severe weather-related factors.

Our results of operations may be adversely affected by weather-related factors. Adverse weather conditions and extreme seasonal fluctuations may deter or prevent patrons from reaching facilities where our products are sold, or negatively affect customer demand for certain products. Although our budget assumes certain seasonal fluctuations in our revenues to ensure adequate cash flow during expected periods of lower revenues, we cannot ensure that weather-related factors will not have a material adverse effect on our operations.

Our products could infringe the intellectual property rights of others and we may be exposed to costly litigation.

The products we sell are continually changing as a result of improved technology.  Although we and our suppliers attempt to avoid infringing known proprietary rights of third parties in our products, we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims for alleged infringement by us, our suppliers or our distributors, or of a third party’s patents, trade secrets, trademarks or copyrights.

Any claims relating to the infringement of third-party proprietary rights, even if not meritorious, could result in costly litigation, divert management’s attention and resources, or require us to either enter into royalty or license agreements which are not advantageous to us or pay material amounts of damages.  In addition, parties making these claims may be able to obtain an injunction, which could prevent us from selling our products.  We may increasingly be subject to infringement claims as we expand our product offerings.

Acquisitions and strategic investments may divert our resources and management attention; results may fall short of expectations.

We intend to continue pursuing selected acquisitions of and investments in businesses, technologies and product lines as a component of our growth strategy.  Any future acquisition or investment may result in the use of significant amounts of cash, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, or the incurrence of debt and amortization expenses related to intangible assets.  Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including:

18

• difficulties in the integration and assimilation of the operations, technologies, products and personnel of an acquired business;

• diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns;

• increased expenses associated with the acquisition, and

• potential loss of key employees or customers of any acquired business.

We cannot assure you that our acquisitions will be successful and will not adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We depend heavily on existing directors, management and key personnel and our ability to recruit and retain qualified personnel.

Our success depends on the continued efforts of our directors, executives and senior vice presidents, many of whom have worked with VOXX International Corporation for several decades, as well as our other executive officers and key employees. We have employment contracts with most of our executive officers. The loss or interruption of the continued full-time service of certain of our executive officers and key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business.

In addition, to support our continued growth, we must effectively recruit, develop and retain additional qualified personnel both domestically and internationally. Our inability to attract and retain necessary qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business.

John J. Shalam, our Chairman, controls a significant portion of the voting power of our common stock and can exercise control over our affairs.

Mr. Shalam beneficially owns approximately 52.5% of the combined voting power of both classes of common stock. This will allow him to elect the majority of our Board of Directors and, in general, determine the outcome of any other matter submitted to the stockholders for approval. Mr. Shalam's voting power may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company.

We have two classes of common stock: Class A common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol VOXX and Class B common stock, which is not publicly traded and substantially all of which is beneficially owned by Mr. Shalam. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share and each share of Class B common stock is entitled to ten votes per share. Class A shareholders vote separately for the election/removal of the Class A directors, while both classes vote together as a single class on all other matters and as otherwise may be required by Delaware law. Since our charter permits shareholder action by written consent, Mr. Shalam may be able to take significant corporate actions without prior notice and a shareholder meeting.

We exercise our option for the "controlled company" exemption under NASDAQ rules.

The Company has exercised its right to the "controlled company" exemption under NASDAQ rules which enables us to forego certain NASDAQ requirements which include: (i) maintaining a majority of independent directors; (ii) electing a nominating committee composed solely of independent directors; (iii) ensuring the compensation of our executive officers is determined by a majority of independent directors or a compensation committee composed solely of independent directors; and (iv) selecting, or recommending for the Board's selection, director nominees, either by a majority of the independent directors or a nominating committee composed solely of independent directors. Although we do not maintain a nominating committee and do not have a majority of independent directors, the Company notes that at the present time we do maintain a compensation committee comprised solely of independent directors who approve executive compensation, and the recommendations for director nominees are governed by a majority of independent directors. However, election of the "controlled company" exemption under NASDAQ rules allows us to modify our position at any time.

Other Risks

Other risks and uncertainties include:

• additional changes in U.S. federal, state and local law,

• our ability to implement operating cost structures that align with revenue growth,

• additional trade sanctions against or for foreign countries,

• successful integration of business acquisitions and new brands in our distribution network,

• compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and

19

• compliance with complex financial accounting and tax standards, both foreign and domestic.

As of the filing of this annual report on Form 10-K, there were no unresolved comments from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 2-Properties

Our Corporate headquarters is located at 2351 J. Lawson Blvd. in Orlando, Florida.  In addition, as of February 28, 2019, the Company leased a total of 13 operating facilities or offices located in 5 states as well as China, Canada, Mexico, France, and Hong Kong. The leases have been classified as operating leases.  Within the United States, these facilities are located in Georgia, New York, Ohio, Texas, and Arkansas. The Company also owns 9 of its operating facilities or offices located in New York, Indiana, Florida, Michigan, and Arkansas in the United States, as well as in Germany and Venezuela. These facilities serve as offices, warehouses, manufacturing facilities and distribution centers. Additionally, we utilize public warehouse facilities located in Virginia, Nevada, Indiana, Florida, China, the Netherlands, Germany and Canada.

Item 3-Legal Proceedings

The Company is currently, and has in the past, been a party to various routine legal proceedings incident to the ordinary course of business. If management determines, based on the underlying facts and circumstances, that it is probable a loss will result from a litigation contingency and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the estimated loss is accrued for. The Company does not believe that any of its outstanding litigation matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements, individually or in the aggregate.

The products the Company sells are continually changing as a result of improved technology.  As a result, although the Company and its suppliers attempt to avoid infringing known proprietary rights, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims for alleged infringement by patent, trademark or other intellectual property owners.  Any claims relating to the infringement of third-party proprietary rights, even if not meritorious, could result in costly litigation, divert management’s attention and resources, or require the Company to either enter into royalty or license agreements which are not advantageous to the Company, or pay material amounts of damages.

Item 4-Mine Safety Disclosure

Not applicable.

Item 7-Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A")

This section should be read in conjunction with the "Cautionary Statements" and "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of Part I, and Item 8 of Part II, "Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

We begin Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations with an overview of the business, including our strategy to give the reader a summary of the goals of our business and the direction in which our business is moving.  This is followed by a discussion of the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates that we believe are important to understanding the assumptions and judgments incorporated in our reported financial results. In the next section, we discuss our Results of Operations for the year ended February 28, 2019 compared to the years ended February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017. Next, we present Adjusted EBITDA and Diluted Adjusted EBITDA per common share for the year ended February 28, 2019 compared to the years ended February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 in order to provide a useful and appropriate supplemental measure of our performance. We then provide an analysis of changes in our balance sheet and cash flows and discuss our financial commitments in the sections entitled "Liquidity and Capital Resources." We conclude this MD&A with a discussion of "Related Party Transactions" and "Recent Accounting Pronouncements."

Business Overview and Strategy

VOXX International Corporation ("Voxx," "We," "Our," "Us," or the "Company") is a leading international distributor, manufacturer and value-added service provider in the automotive, premium audio and consumer accessory industries.  We conduct our business through sixteen wholly-owned subsidiaries and one majority owned subsidiary. Voxx has a broad portfolio of brand names used to market our products as well as private labels through a large domestic and international distribution network. We also function as an OEM ("Original Equipment Manufacturer") supplier to several customers, as well as market a number of products under exclusive distribution agreements.

In recent years, we have focused on our intention to acquire synergistic businesses with the addition of several new subsidiaries.  These subsidiaries have helped us to expand our core business and broaden our presence in the accessory and OEM markets. Our acquisitions of Klipsch and Invision provided the opportunity to enter the manufacturing arena, and our acquisition of a controlling interest in EyeLock Inc. and EyeLock Corporation has allowed us to enter the growing and innovative biometrics market. Our intention is to continue to pursue business opportunities which will allow us to further expand our business model while leveraging overhead and exploring specialized niche markets in the electronics industry. Notwithstanding the above acquisitions, if the appropriate opportunity arises, the Company has been willing to explore the potential divestiture of a product line or business, such as with the sale of the Company's Hirschmann subsidiary on August 31, 2017.

The Company aligns its subsidiaries in three operating and reporting segments, based upon our products and internal organizational structure. The operating and reporting segments consist of the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories segments. The characteristics of our operations that are relied on in making and reviewing business decisions within these segments include the similarities in our products, the commonality of our customers, suppliers and product developers across multiple brands, our unified marketing and distribution strategy, our centralized inventory management and logistics, and the nature of the financial information used by our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The CODM reviews the financial results of the Company based on the performance of the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories segments.

The Company’s domestic and international business is subject to retail industry trends and conditions and the sales of new and used vehicles. In recent years, worldwide economic conditions have had an adverse impact on consumer spending. If the global macroeconomic environment does not continue to improve or if it deteriorates further, this could have a negative effect on the Company’s revenues and earnings. In an attempt to offset negative market conditions, the Company continues to explore strategies and alternatives to reduce its operating expenses, such as the consolidation of facilities and IT systems, and has been introducing new products to obtain a greater market share. The Company continues to focus on cash flow and anticipates having sufficient resources to operate during Fiscal 2020.

24

Although we believe our product groups have expanding market opportunities, there are certain levels of volatility related to domestic and international markets, new car sales, increased competition by manufacturers, private labels, technological advancements, discretionary consumer spending and general economic conditions.  Also, all of our products are subject to price fluctuations which could affect the carrying value of inventories and gross margins in the future.

Acquisitions and Dispositions

We have acquired and integrated several businesses, as well as divested certain businesses, the most recent of which are outlined in the Acquisitions and Dispositions section of Part I and presented in detail in Note 2 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net Sales Decline

Net sales from continuing operations over a five-year period have decreased(23.7)% from $585,360 for the year ended February 28, 2015 to $446,816 for the year ended February 28, 2019.  During this period, our sales were adversely impacted by the following items:

• Volatility in core Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories sales due to increased competition, lower selling prices, changes in technology and demand, and the volatility of the national and global economy;

• the discontinuance and reduction of various high volume/low margin product lines such as clock radios, digital players, digital voice recorders, and portable DVD players;

• decreased box office sales affecting the Company's cinema audio products;

• weather factors resulting in a change in demand for aftermarket remote start products;

• the transition of one of the Company's subsidiaries to a distributor model;

• the sale of certain branded product inventory of the Company to a third party in order to license the brand name for a commission; and

• Euro devaluation against the U.S. Dollar.

These items were partially offset by:

• the introduction of new products and lines across the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories segments, such as: OEM rear seat entertainment; various Bluetooth and wireless speakers; multi-room streaming audio solutions; neckband, on-ear, in-ear and over-ear headphones; nursery products; and karaoke products,

• the introduction of activity tracking band fulfillment programs,

• international digital broadcasting upgrades necessitating the purchase of updated consumer accessory products,

• successful marketing and promotional activity, and

• the acquisition of Rosen Electronics LLC.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates (see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements)

General

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information available. These estimates and assumptions can be subjective and complex and may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses reported in those financial statements. As a result, actual results could differ from such estimates and assumptions. The significant accounting policies and estimates which we believe are the most critical in fully understanding and evaluating the reported consolidated financial results include the following:

Revenue Recognition

On March 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all the related amendments (“ASC 606”), using the modified retrospective method. Results for reporting periods beginning March 1, 2018 are presented under the new guidance, while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previous guidance without revision. Most of the changes resulting from the adoption of ASC Topic 606 on March 1, 2018 were changes in presentation within the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Therefore, while we made adjustments to certain opening balances on our March 1, 2018 Consolidated Balance Sheet, we made no changes to opening Retained Earnings. The impact of the adoption of ASC Topic 606 has been immaterial to our net income; however, the adoption did increase the level of disclosure concerning our net sales.

25

The core principle of ASC 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. We apply the FASB’s guidance on revenue recognition, which requires us to recognize the amount of revenue and consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for goods and services transferred to our customers. To do this, the Company applies the five-step model prescribed by the FASB, which requires us to: (i) identify the contract with the customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

We account for a contract or purchase order when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. Revenue is recognized when control of the product passes to the customer, which is upon shipment, unless otherwise specified within the customer contract or on the purchase order as delivery, and is recognized at the amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive for the products sold, including various forms of discounts. When revenue is recorded, estimates of returns are made and recorded as a reduction of revenue.

Sales Incentives

Sales incentives are accounted for in accordance with ASC 606. We offer sales incentives to our customers in the form of (1) co-operative advertising allowances; (2) market development funds; (3) volume incentive rebates; and (4) other trade allowances. We accrue the cost of co-operative advertising allowances, volume incentive rebates, and market development funds at the latter of when the customer purchases our products or when the sales incentive is offered to the customer. We record the provision for other trade allowances at the latter of when the sales incentive is offered or when the related revenue is recognized. Except for other trade allowances, all sales incentives require the customer to purchase our products during a specified period of time. All sales incentives require customers to claim the sales incentive within a certain time period (referred to as the "claim period").  All costs associated with sales incentives are classified as a reduction of net sales.

We utilize the most likely amount consistently to estimate the effect of uncertainty on the amount of variable consideration to which we would be entitled. The most likely amount method considers the single most likely amount from a range of possible consideration amounts. The most likely amounts are based upon the contractual terms of the incentives and historical experience with each customer. Although we make our best estimate of sales incentive liabilities, many factors, including significant unanticipated changes in the purchasing volume and the lack of claims from customers could have a significant impact on the liability for sales incentives and reported operating results. We record estimates for cash discounts, promotional rebates, and other promotional allowances in the period the related revenue is recognized (“Customer Credits”). The provision for Customer Credits is recorded as a reduction from gross sales and reserves for Customer Credits are presented within accrued sales incentives on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Unearned sales incentives are volume incentive rebates where the customer did not purchase the required minimum quantities of product during the specified time. Volume incentive rebates are reversed into income in the period when the customer did not reach the required minimum purchases of product during the specified time. Unclaimed sales incentives are sales incentives earned by the customer, but the customer has not claimed payment within the claim period (period after program has ended). Unclaimed sales incentives are investigated in a timely manner after the end of the program and reversed if deemed appropriate. 

Accounts Receivable

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based upon payment history and current credit worthiness, as determined by a review of current credit information. We continuously monitor collections from our customers and maintain a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified.  While such credit losses have historically been within management's expectations and the provisions established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that have been experienced in the past. Our five largest customer balances comprise 24% of our accounts receivable balance as of February 28, 2019. A significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any one of these customers could have a material adverse impact on the collectability of accounts receivable and our results of operations.

Inventory

We value our inventory at the lower of the actual cost to purchase or the net realizable value of the inventory. Net realizable value is defined as estimated selling prices, less cost of completion, disposal, and transportation. We regularly review inventory quantities on-hand and record a provision in cost of sales for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on selling prices, indications from customers based upon current price negotiations, and purchase orders. The cost of the inventory is determined primarily on

26

a weighted moving average basis, with a portion valued at standard cost, which approximates actual costs on the first in, first out basis. Our industry is characterized by rapid technological change and frequent new product introductions that could result in an increase in the amount of obsolete inventory quantities on-hand.  In addition, and as necessary, specific reserves for future known or anticipated events may be established.

Estimates of excess and obsolete inventory may prove to be inaccurate, in which case we may have understated or overstated the provision required for excess and obsolete inventory.  Although we make every effort to ensure the accuracy of our forecasts of future product demand, any significant unanticipated changes in demand or technological developments could have a significant impact on the carrying value of inventory and our results of operations.

Long-Lived and Intangible Asset Impairments

As of February 28, 2019, intangible assets totaled $119,449 and property, plant and equipment totaled $60,493. Management makes estimates and assumptions in preparing the consolidated financial statements for which actual results will emerge over long periods of time. This includes the recoverability of long-lived assets employed in the business, including assets of acquired businesses. These estimates and assumptions are closely monitored by management and periodically adjusted as circumstances warrant. For instance, expected asset lives may be shortened or an impairment recorded based upon a change in the expected use of the asset or performance of the related asset group. At the present time, management intends to continue the development, marketing and selling of products associated with its intangible assets, and there are no known restrictions on the continuation of their use.

During the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company re-evaluated its projections for several brands in its Consumer Accessories and Automotive segments based on lower than anticipated results. Specifically, during the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the lower than anticipated results were due to reduced product load-ins, increased competition for certain product lines, a streamlining of SKU’s, and a change in market strategy for one of its brands. Accordingly, these were considered indicators of impairment requiring the Company to test the related indefinite-lived tradenames for impairment as of August 31, 2018. The Company also tested its indefinite-lived intangible assets as of February 28, 2019 as part of its annual impairment testing. During the fourth quarter, the Company further streamlined its SKU’s in conjunction with its corporate realignment and transformation initiatives, and adjusted expectations for select customer demand, and the anticipated results from alternative sales channels for one of its brands. As a result of these analyses, it was determined that several of the Company’s Consumer Accessory trademarks and one of the Company's Automotive trademarks were impaired with total impairment charges of $25,789 recorded for the year ended February 28, 2019 (see Note 1(k)). No impairment losses were recorded related to indefinite lived intangible assets during Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2017.

Approximately 46% of our indefinite-lived trademarks ($34,662) are at risk of impairment as of February 28, 2019. The Company uses an income approach, based on the relief from royalty method, to value the indefinite-lived trademarks as part of its impairment test. This impairment test involves the use of accounting estimates and assumptions, changes in which could materially impact our financial condition or operating performance if actual results differ from such estimates and assumptions. The critical assumptions in the discounted cash flow model include revenues, long-term growth rates, royalty rates, and discount rates. Management exercises judgment in developing these assumptions. Certain of these assumptions are based upon industry projections, facts specific to the trademarks and consideration of our long-term view for the trademark and the markets we operate in. If we were to experience sales declines, a significant change in operating margins which may impact estimated royalty rates, an increase in our discount rates, and/or a decrease in our projected long-term growth rates, there would be an increased risk of impairment of these indefinite-lived trademarks.

The cost of other intangible assets with definite lives and long-lived assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their respective lives.  Management has determined that the current lives of these assets are appropriate. Management has determined that there were no indicators of impairment that would cause the carrying values related to intangible assets with definite lives to exceed their expected future cash flows at February 28, 2019.  

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 360 whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to their estimated fair market value. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

The Company holds certain long-lived assets in Venezuela, which are held for investment purposes. During the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company made an assessment of the recoverability of these properties as a result of the country's continued

27

economic deterioration, which included a significant currency devaluation in August of 2018. The Company estimated the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be received from these properties. The estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows considered the Company’s financial condition and its intent and ability to retain its investments for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of the carrying value. The future undiscounted cash flows did not exceed the net carrying value for the long-lived assets. The estimated fair value of the properties, which also considered the current conditions of the economy in Venezuela, the volatility of the real estate market, and the significant political unrest, resulted in a full non-cash impairment charge of $3,473 for the year ended February 28, 2019. The non-cash impairment charge is included in Other Income (Expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The value of the Company's properties held for investment purposes in Venezuela is $0 as of February 28, 2019.

Voxx’s goodwill totaled $54,785 as of February 28, 2019. Goodwill is tested for impairment as of the last day of each fiscal year at the reporting unit level. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities to reporting units, assignment of goodwill to reporting units, and estimation of the fair value of each reporting unit. Based on the Company's goodwill impairment assessment, all the reporting units with goodwill had estimated fair values as of February 28, 2019 that exceeded their carrying values. As a result of the annual assessment, no impairment charges were recorded related to goodwill during Fiscal 2019, Fiscal 2018 or Fiscal 2017.

Goodwill allocated to our Klipsch, Invision, and Rosen reporting units was 84.9% ($46,533), 13.5% ($7,372), and 1.6% ($880), respectively. The fair values of the Klipsch and Invision reporting units are greater than their carrying values by approximately 269% ($26,533) and 35% ($9,933), respectively, as of February 28, 2019. The Company uses a discounted cash flow model to value the reporting unit as part of its impairment test. This impairment test involves the use of accounting estimates and assumptions, changes in which could materially impact our financial condition or operating performance if actual results differ from such estimates and assumptions. The critical assumptions in the discounted cash flow model are revenues, operating margins, working capital and a discount rate (developed using a weighted average cost of capital analysis). Management exercises judgment in developing these assumptions. Certain of these assumptions are based upon industry projections, facts specific to the reporting unit, market participant assumptions and data, and consideration of our long-term view for the reporting unit and the markets we operate in. If the Klipsch reporting unit were to experience sales declines, sustained pricing pressures, unfavorable operating margins, lack of new product acceptance by consumers, changes in consumer trends and preferred shopping channels, less than anticipated results for the holiday season, an increase to the discount rate, and/or a decrease in our projected long-term growth rates used in the discounted cash flow model, there would be an increased risk of goodwill impairment for the Klipsch reporting unit. If the Invision reporting unit experienced an increase to the discount rate, a lack or delay in new product acceptance, or a change in our projected long-term growth rates used in the discounted cash flow model, there would be an increased risk of goodwill impairment for the Invision reporting unit. If the Rosen reporting unit experienced an increase to the discount rate, sales declines, changes in consumer trends, or a decrease in our projected long-term growth rates used in the discounted cash flow model, there would be an increased risk of goodwill impairment for the Rosen reporting unit.

Warranties

We offer warranties of various lengths depending upon the specific product.  Our standard warranties require us to repair or replace defective product returned by both end users and customers during such warranty period at no cost. We do not sell extended warranties. We record an estimate for warranty related costs in cost of sales, based upon historical experience of actual warranty claims and current information on repair costs and contract terms with certain manufacturers. While warranty costs have historically been within expectations and the provisions established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same warranty return rates or repair costs that have been experienced in the past. A significant increase in product return rates, or a significant increase in the costs to repair products, could have a material adverse impact on our operating results.

Stock-Based Compensation

We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to compute the estimated fair value of stock-based awards. The Black-Scholes option pricing model includes assumptions regarding dividend yields, expected volatility, expected option term and risk-free interest rates. The assumptions used in computing the fair value of stock-based awards reflect our best estimates, but involve uncertainties relating to market and other conditions, many of which are outside of our control.  We estimate expected volatility by considering the historical volatility of our stock, the implied volatility of publicly traded stock options in our stock and our expectations of volatility for the expected term of stock-based compensation awards. For restricted stock awards, the fair value of the award is the price on the date of grant. As a result, if other assumptions or estimates had been used for options or restricted stock awards granted in the current and prior periods, the total stock-based compensation expense for the current fiscal year of $551 could have been materially different.  Furthermore, if different assumptions are used in future periods, stock-based compensation expense could be materially impacted in the future.

28

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with the guidance issued under Statement ASC 740, "Income Taxes" with consideration for uncertain tax positions.  We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount of future tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized.

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, we consider all positive and negative evidence including the results of recent operations, scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, future taxable income and tax planning strategies. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled (see Note 8). The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the authoritative guidance issued under ASC 740, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements.  The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only 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 position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  The Company provides loss contingencies for federal, state and international tax matters relating to potential tax examination issues, planning initiatives and compliance responsibilities. The development of these reserves requires judgments about tax issues, potential outcomes and timing, which if different, may materially impact the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The Company classifies interest and penalties associated with income taxes as a component of Income Tax Expense (Benefit) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. See Note 8 for discussion of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Job Acts on December 22, 2017.

Fiscal 2019 compared to Fiscal 2018

29

Automotive sales, which include both OEM and aftermarket automotive electronics, represented 36.2% of the net sales for the year ended February 28, 2019, compared to 30.7% in the prior year. Sales in this segment increased during the year ended February 28, 2019 as compared to the prior year primarily due to a full year of sales of its EVO headrest product within the OEM manufacturing line. Sales were also positively impacted by the Company's Subaru remote start program and the launch of new CarLink products. Offsetting these sales increases were declines in our aftermarket headrest and remote start products, as well as a decline in satellite radio sales for the year ended February 28, 2019. The declines in both satellite radio sales and aftermarket headrests are the result of an increase in standard factory equipped vehicles with these options. Sales declines in aftermarket remote start products were caused primarily by an inventory shortage of the certain digital platform remote start products that were in higher demand during the fiscal year as compared to analog systems.

Premium Audio sales represented 35.5% of net sales for the year ended February 28, 2019 as compared to 34.0% in the prior year.  Sales in Premium Audio decreased for the year ended February 28, 2019 partially as a result of lower sales of certain discontinued products including powered towers, digital speakers, and digital systems; elimination of overstock in certain inventory levels; as well as a shift in demand from traditional wired mobility products to Bluetooth/wireless solutions. Closeout promotions for many of these products led to increased sales in the prior fiscal year and did not repeat during the year ended February 28, 2019. New products for Bluetooth/wireless solutions have not yet launched and are planned for the first half of Fiscal 2020. Additionally, the Company has limited product distribution within the segment in Fiscal 2019 in order to improve its margins. The Company also experienced a decrease in sales in its European market as a result of the timing of certain customer orders, and a shift in sales strategy related to our e-commerce channel that has had temporarily delayed sales. Partially offsetting the sales decline in Premium Audio for the year ended February 28, 2019 has been the successful launch of new home entertainment product lines during Fiscal 2019 and an increase in in-wall and in-ceiling architectural speaker product sales that launched during the second half of Fiscal 2018.

Consumer Accessories represented 28.2% of our net sales for the year ended February 28, 2019, compared to 35.3% in the prior year. The Company experienced decreases in sales during the year ended February 28, 2019 due in part to the timing of customer orders for wireless and Bluetooth speakers, including large load-in orders of new wireless speaker product during the year ended February 28, 2018 that did not repeat in the current year, and a streamlining of products and reduced store counts for certain retailers. Additionally, during Fiscal 2018, the Company launched its Striiv activity tracking bands. Significant load-in orders for this product during the year ended February 28, 2018 did not repeat in the current year. Sales were also impacted during the year ended February 28, 2019 by lower sales in reception, remotes, hookup, headphones and power categories due to retail distribution changes, price competition and changes in demand. Within the European market, the Company experienced a decrease in sales during the year ended February 28, 2019 primarily as a result of a shift in sales strategy related to our e-commerce channel that has temporarily delayed sales, as well as sales of equipment and set top boxes related to a digital broadcasting upgrade in the prior year that did not repeat in the current year. Offsetting these decreases were higher sales of karaoke products, specifically the new Singsation line, as well as increases in sales from additional placements and higher direct import sales of our Project Nursery products and the introduction of our new smart home line during the year ended February 28, 2019. Due to the ongoing sales declines in this segment as a result of technology advancements and changes in retail distribution, during the year ended February 28, 2019, the Company restructured its Consumer Accessories segment, which included an aggressive SKU rationalization program to limit sales of lower margin products.

Fiscal 2018 compared to Fiscal 2017

Automotive sales, which include both OEM and aftermarket automotive electronics, represented 30.7% of the net sales for the year ended February 28, 2018, compared to 33.2% in the prior year. The Company experienced a decrease in automotive sales during the year ended February 28, 2018 partially due to the continued decline in satellite radio sales, as a result of most vehicles being built equipped with these products as standard vehicle options. Additionally, the Company had a decrease in sales during the year ended February 28, 2018 related to its international OEM manufacturing line as a result of the completion of a program with Bentley during the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, with final spare parts shipments during the first half of the fiscal year. Within the Company's domestic OEM manufacturing lines, there was a slight decrease in sales during the year ended February 28, 2018 related to the winding down of certain headrest programs with General Motors and Ford in preparation for new programs which experienced delayed launches. These programs began at the end of the third quarter of Fiscal 2018. The decreases in sales were partially offset by a net increase in aftermarket product sales primarily due to overhead and headrest DVD player sales resulting from the Company's acquisition of Rosen Electronics LLC during the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, as well as increases to domestic OEM sales during the year ended February 28, 2018 due to additional vehicle models added to existing programs with Subaru.

Premium Audio sales represented 34.0% of net sales for the year ended February 28, 2018 as compared to 32.4% in the prior year. Sales in Premium Audio increased for the year ended February 28, 2018 partially as a result of an increase in sales of several of its existing lines of home entertainment speakers due to successful marketing and promotional activity. Additionally, sales have increased in this segment as a result of the introduction of several new products, including various lines of HD wireless speakers,

30

wireless soundbars, Klipsch Heritage products, and wireless and multi-room streaming audio systems, including Capital Records branded products, which launched throughout Fiscal 2018. The Company also offered several close out promotions on certain soundbar models that have been phased out to make room for newer product lines, which resulted in further sales increases during the fiscal year. Finally, within the Company's European market, a modest increase in the Euro also resulted in a positive impact on sales revenue. These increases were partially offset by decreases in sales of mobility products during the year ended February 28, 2018, such as wireless headphones and portable bluetooth speakers, as a result of certain vendor delays on some of the Company's new headphone and neckband lines, as well as decreases in wired headphone products due to changes in technology and the migration toward wireless products. The segment also experienced a decrease in commercial speaker sales due to the delay of certain projects and programs, which is primarily a result of slower box office sales that have affected many of the Company's cinema customers.

Consumer Accessories represented 35.3% of our net sales for the year ended February 28, 2018, compared to 34.2% in the prior year. The Company experienced increases in sales during the year ended February 28, 2018 related to its new Striiv activity tracking bands, which launched during the second quarter of Fiscal 2018, as well as an increase in sales of the Company's new Project Nursery line, which includes baby monitors, and launched in the second quarter of Fiscal 2017. The Company also experienced an increase in sales of wireless speakers as a result of new orders and placements at retailers, and the launch of new product lines. Additionally, during the year ended February 28, 2018, the Company experienced an increase in international sales, primarily due to the roll out of an upgrade to the digital broadcasting platform in Europe during Fiscal 2017, which has required consumers to purchase new equipment, such as set top boxes, as well as due to a modest increase in the Euro, which contributed positively to the Company's revenues for the year. As an offset to these increases, the Company experienced decreases in consumer accessory sales during the year ended February 28, 2018 due to factors including the decline in sales of the 360Fly action camera product and Singtrix product. There was also a decrease in sales of hook-up products; remotes; clock radios; docking stations; digital audio products; and power products, such as cables and surge protectors, due primarily to competition, changes in demand and changes in technology during the year ended February 28, 2018.

Fiscal 2019 compared to Fiscal 2018

Gross margins in the Automotive segment decreased 50 basis points for the year ended February 28, 2019. Gross profits decreased during the fiscal year primarily as a result of decreases in sales of certain higher margin products, such as aftermarket headrest products and remote start systems. As an offset, the segment experienced increases in gross profits for the year ended February 28, 2019 as a result of the sales of our new EVO product, as well as due to decreases in sales of low margin products such as satellite radios and due to certain production related cost-cutting measures, lower tooling costs, and lower inventory reserve requirements.

Gross margins in the Premium Audio segment increased 360 basis points for the year ended February 28, 2019 compared to the prior year. The segment margins were positively impacted by a shift in product mix including the introduction of our new Reference and Reference Premier lines during Fiscal 2019, a decline in sales of lower margined mobility products, and a decline in sales of certain sound system, sound bar, and Bluetooth speaker products that were being phased out during the prior fiscal year with heavy close out promotions. As an offset to these increases, the segment experienced lower sales in its European market during the year ended February 28, 2019, for which the product mix generally contributes a higher profit margin for the segment.

Gross margins in the Consumer Accessories segment decreased 80 basis points for the year ended February 28, 2019 compared to the prior year. For the year ended February 28, 2019, gross margins were negatively impacted for the segment as a result of

31

decreased sales of certain higher margin products, such as wireless speakers and reception products, as well as increases in inventory write-downs related to certain slow moving products, and higher warehousing expenses related to the consolidation of our Consumer Accessory operations in Germany. Gross margins were positively impacted during the year ended February 28, 2019 by a stronger mix of higher margined product including the recent introduction of our new karaoke line, improved margins and profits for our Project Nursery line, and declines in sales of lower margin project lines, such as the Striiv activity tracking bands and the absence of lower margined digital reception product sales in the European market.

Fiscal 2018 compared to Fiscal 2017

Gross margins in the Automotive segment decreased 180 basis points for the year ended February 28, 2018. The main driver of this decline in margins was related to the delays in the launch of new headrest programs that were scheduled for early in the fiscal year, but did not begin until the end of the Company's third quarter. During these delays, the Company continued to employ certain warehouse and assembly personnel specializing in the programs, rather than reduce headcount and re-train new employees at a later date. As a result, these additional warehouse and assembly expenditures contributed to an overall reduction in margins on these OEM sales within the Company's Automotive segment for the year ended February 28, 2018. This was partially offset by an increase in sales of certain higher margin products, such as the Company's aftermarket overhead and headrest DVD players, due to the acquisition of Rosen in the first quarter of Fiscal 2018, as well as decreased sales of lower margin products, such as satellite radio fulfillments during the year ended February 28, 2018.

Gross margins in the Premium Audio segment decreased 200 basis points for the year ended February 28, 2018 compared to the prior year. During the year ended February 28, 2018, the segment experienced lower sales of its higher margin commercial speakers. Additionally, certain portable mobile devices, such as headphones and neckbands, experienced higher sales at higher margins in the prior year, as compared to lower sales with close-out promotions in the current year to make way for newer models, which also experienced delays coming to market. The combination of these factors negatively impacted the blended margin of these portable mobile devices. During the year ended February 28, 2018, the Company also offered heavy promotions of older soundbar models that have now been phased out in order to make way for a newer line of products. As an offset to these decreases, the segment experienced an increase in sales of its higher margin home entertainment speakers and systems, which contributed positively to overall margins.

Gross margins in the Consumer Accessories segment decreased 190 basis points for the year ended February 28, 2018 compared to the prior year. For the year ended February 28, 2018, margins were negatively impacted by decreased sales of certain higher margin products, including hookup products, clock radios, docking stations, digital audio products, and power products, as well as by the increase in sales of the Company's new Striiv activity band, which contributed significant sales during the year ended February 28, 2018, but generated lower margins for the segment. The Company also offered significant promotions on certain products within its Project Nursery line, which caused a reduction in margins for these products during the current fiscal year. Additionally, the Company incurred increased freight charges due to significant demand for certain remote products, thus driving down margins and also incurred a one-time settlement charge related to a contract shortfall with a vendor for the purchase of certain products, which caused margins to be negatively impacted for the year. These decreases were offset by an increase in sales of higher margin products, such as the segment's wireless speakers, as well as an increase in sales of set top boxes and other high margin products within the European market related to an upgrade to the digital broadcasting platform in Europe. There was also a decrease in sales of action cameras and the Company's Singtrix product during the year ended February 28, 2018. As the sales of these products generally produce lower margins for the Company, the decrease in these sales partially offset the overall decline in margins for the year ended February 28, 2018.

Fiscal 2019 compared to Fiscal 2018

The Company experienced an overall increase in operating expenses of $11,218 for Fiscal 2019 as compared to Fiscal 2018. Excluding intangible asset impairment charges and restructuring expenses, operating expenses decreased $19,159 in Fiscal 2019.

Selling expenses have decreased for the year ended February 28, 2019 primarily due to various cost-cutting measures including lower advertising costs related to printed media and sales promotions, headcount reductions, adjustments to our trade show participation, and lower travel and entertainment expenses. There were also lower commissions for the year as a result of lower sales. Offsetting these declines was an increase in online platform fees, which includes a termination charge for a discontinued platform, as well as higher online advertising.

General and administrative expenses decreased during the year ended February 28, 2019 primarily due to lower professional fees, bonus accruals and incentives. Professional fees were down for the year due to the reimbursement of legal fees associated with a favorable judgment in a counterfeit lawsuit. Executive bonus accruals were lower as a result of lower profitability in Fiscal 2019, as well as due to the fact that executive bonuses for the year ended February 28, 2018 included a bonus related to the sale of Hirschmann. In addition, expenses are down for the year ended February 28, 2019 due to cost cutting efforts related to headcount reductions, travel and entertainment, and various other general office expenses. Partially offsetting these expense decreases were higher professional fees related to assessing the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

Engineering and technical support expenses for the year ended February 28, 2019 declined as compared to the prior year primarily as a result of lower net research and development costs. These costs are driven by the timing of the start and completion of the Company's product development projects, such as the Company's new EVO headrest product, which was completed and launched in the second half of Fiscal 2018. Engineering and technical expenses also decreased as a result of headcount reductions made in the prior year and due to cost cutting measures related to travel and entertainment in the current year. These declines were partially offset by an increase in healthcare costs, as well as research and development expense incurred by EyeLock LLC.

During the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company re-evaluated its projections for several brands in its Consumer Accessories and Automotive segments based on lower than anticipated results, such as reduced product load-ins, increased competition for certain product lines, a streamlining of SKU’s, and a change in market strategy for one of its brands. During the fourth quarter, the Company further streamlined its SKU’s in conjunction with its corporate realignment and transformation initiatives, and adjusted expectations for select customer demand, and the anticipated results from alternative sales channels for one of its brands. As a result of these analyses, it was determined that certain trademarks in Consumer Accessory and Automotive segments were impaired. The Company recorded total impairment charges of $25,789 during the the year ended February 28, 2019 related to these impairments.

During the year ended February 28, 2019, the Company began to realign certain businesses within the Consumer Accessories and Premium Audio segments to lower and contain fixed costs, generate efficiencies and better leverage resources. In Germany, the Company's Schwaiger and Oehlbach businesses were combined into one entity operating in one physical location and the Company's Magnat business was realigned with its Klipsch European operation. Domestically, the Company conducted an aggressive SKU rationalization program in order to discontinue certain consumer accessory product lines and focus on offerings with longer product life cycles, sustainable gross margins, and better growth potential. Certain restructuring initiatives are expected to continue in to Fiscal 2020. Total restructuring expense incurred for the year ended February 28, 2019 were $4,588, primarily consisting of severance charges.

Fiscal 2018 compared to Fiscal 2017

The Company experienced an overall increase in operating expenses of $802 for Fiscal 2018 as compared to Fiscal 2017.

Selling expenses increased during the year ended February 28, 2018 due primarily to advertising and marketing related expenses. This was driven mainly as a result of increased web advertising and promotion expenses due to higher online sales, as well as an increase in store displays and in-store vignettes for product promotion. These increases were offset by decreases in selling commissions for the fiscal year, as a result of an overall decrease in sales.

Within general and administrative expenses, the Company experienced a net decrease in expenses for the year ended February 28, 2018. Decreases in general and administrative expenses were due to a decline in professional expenses as a result of lower legal services for the year; lower occupancy expenses related to the consolidation of the Company's shared services into one location, which was completed during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2017; the consolidation of the Company's phone system; a decline in licensing fees related to MIS; and lower insurance expenditures related to fewer workers' compensation claims for the year ended

33

February 28, 2018 as compared to the prior year. In addition, during the prior year, the Company incurred significant bad debt expense related to one of the Company's larger customers who filed bankruptcy during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2017, which did not repeat in the current year, thus contributing to lower G&A expense for the year ended February 28, 2018. These decreases were offset by higher salary and benefits expenses due both to severance expense at certain business units related to headcount reductions during the year, as well as higher executive bonus accruals resulting from Company profitability. Additionally, an employee furlough program was provided at one of the Company's foreign subsidiaries in Fiscal 2017 that resulted in lower salary expenditures for the Company in the prior year and was no longer in effect for Fiscal 2018.

Engineering and technical support expenses decreased during the year ended February 28, 2018 primarily due to certain development delays, the timing of new projects, as well as due to headcount reductions and cost cutting measures.

Fiscal 2019 compared to Fiscal 2018

Interest and bank charges represent expenses for the Company's bank obligations, interest related to capital leases, and amortization of deferred financing costs. These charges decreased for the year ended February 28, 2019 as compared to the prior year due primarily to the fact that the Company did not carry an outstanding balance on its Credit Facility during Fiscal 2019. The Company repaid the entire outstanding balance of the Credit Facility following the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017. This was partially offset by an increase in the LIBOR rate, which has caused an increase in factoring fees incurred by the Company, as well as an increase in bank charges related to the unused portion of the Credit Facility.

Equity in income of equity investee represents the Company's share of income from its 50% non-controlling ownership interest in ASA Electronics, LLC ("ASA"). The decrease in income for the year ended February 28, 2019 was due to higher tooling costs for certain R&D projects, higher legal expenses, and a change in product amortization expense, as well as due to the liquidation and sell through of certain slow-moving inventory stock.

The Company has certain long-lived assets in Venezuela, which are held for investment purposes. During the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company made an assessment of the recoverability of these properties as a result of the country's continued economic deterioration, which included a significant currency devaluation in August of 2018. The Company recorded an impairment charge for the year ended February 28, 2019 representing the remaining balance of these properties.

During Fiscal 2018 and Fiscal 2019, the Company held various notes receivable from 360fly, Inc., designers and creators of 360° cameras and technology. The notes were due on January 19, 2019. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, the credit quality of the debtor deteriorated and the notes were deemed uncollectible by Voxx, resulting in an impairment charge of $16,509, representing the entire outstanding balance of these notes at February 28, 2019.

During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, all of the outstanding common stock Fathom Systems Inc., a non-controlled corporation in which Voxx was invested, were repurchased by the investee for a price per share significantly below the value when issued. This resulted in a loss on Voxx's investment in Fathom of $530 for the year ended February 28, 2019. Voxx has no remaining investment or ownership in this company as of February 28, 2019. During Fiscal 2018, one of the Company's cost method investments, Rx Networks, was sold to a third party, resulting in a gain recognized by the Company for the year ended February 28, 2018 representing the excess of the consideration for the investment held by the Company on the date of the transaction.

Other, net, for the year ended February 28, 2019 includes net gains on foreign currency of $220, interest income of $994, and rental income of $517. Interest income for the year ended February 28, 2019 includes interest earned from money market investments

34

for which the Company increased its investment in during the fiscal year. Other, net, for the year ended February 28, 2018 included net losses on foreign currency of $(8,769), interest income of $210, and rental income of $553. Included in the foreign currency losses for the year ended February 28, 2018 are losses on forward contracts totaling $(6,618) incurred in conjunction with the sale of Hirschmann.

Fiscal 2018 compared to Fiscal 2017

Interest and bank charges represent expenses for the Company's bank obligations, interest related to capital leases, and amortization of deferred financing costs. These charges decreased for the year ended February 28, 2018 as compared to the prior year as a result of a lower average outstanding balance on the Company's Credit Facility due to the repayment of the entire outstanding balance following the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017.

Equity in income of equity investee represents the Company's share of income from its 50% non-controlling ownership interest in ASA Electronics, LLC ("ASA"). The increase in income for the year ended February 28, 2018 was due to favorable product mix and new product offerings, resulting in higher sales for several of the investee's existing customers, as well as a special project performed for one of their customers during the year.

During July 2017, one of the Company's cost method investments, Rx Networks, was sold to a third party, resulting in a gain recognized by the Company for the year ended February 28, 2018 representing the excess of the consideration for the investment held by the Company on the date of the transaction.

Other, net, for the year ended February 28, 2018 includes net losses on foreign currency of $(8,769), interest income of $210 and rental income of 553. Other, net, for the year ended February 28, 2017 included net losses on foreign currency of $(509), interest income of $137, and rental income of $646. Included in the foreign currency losses for the year ended February 28, 2018 are losses on forward contracts totaling $(6,618) incurred in conjunction with the sale of Hirschmann.

Income from Discontinued Operations

On August 31, 2017 (the "Closing Date"), the Company completed its sale of Hirschmann to a subsidiary of TE. The consideration received by the Company was €148,500. The purchase price, at the exchange rate as of the close of business on the Closing Date approximated $177,000 and is subject to adjustment based upon the final working capital. For the year ended February 28, 2018, income from discontinued operations consisted primarily of a gain on sale of $36,118, as well as operating income of $2,817. For the year ended February 28, 2017, income from discontinued operations consisted primarily of operating income of $7,996. Operating income for the Company's discontinued operation in both periods was comprised primarily of tuner and antenna sales, which ceased following the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017. For the year ended February 28, 2019, there was no income from discontinued operations, as all sales and operations relating to the discontinued operation ceased following the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017.

Income Tax Provision

During Fiscal 2019, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $(6,131) related to federal, state and foreign taxes from continuing operations. The effective tax rate in Fiscal 2019 was 10.4% for continuing operations. The Company's effective tax rate of 10.4% differs from the statutory rate of 21% primarily related to current year losses for which limited tax benefit was provided. During Fiscal 2019, the Company maintained a partial valuation allowance against certain U.S. and foreign deferred tax assets as the Company could not conclude that such assets will be realized on a more-likely-than-not basis. Any decline in the valuation allowance could have a favorable impact on our income tax provision and net income in the period in which such determination is made.

The effective tax rate of 72.4% in Fiscal 2018 differs from the statutory rate of 32.7% primarily due to the impact of TCJA, the partial reversal of the Company’s valuation allowance as certain deferred tax assets became realizable on a more-likely-than-not basis and the reversal of uncertain tax positions under ASC 740 related to the expiration of the statute of limitations. During Fiscal 2018, the Company maintained a partial valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets and certain foreign jurisdictions. Any decline in the valuation allowance could have a favorable impact on our income tax provision and net income in the period in which such determination is made.

The effective tax rate of (3.8)% in Fiscal 2017 differs from the statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the impact of uncertain tax positions under ASC 740 related to settlement of an income tax examination, non-controlling interest, an income tax provision resulting from the increase in deferred tax liabilities related to indefinite-lived intangible assets, and tax rate differences due to the mix of domestic and foreign earnings. During Fiscal 2017, the Company maintained a valuation allowance against its U.S.

deferred tax assets and certain foreign jurisdictions. Any decline in the valuation allowance could have a favorable impact on our income tax provision and net income in the period in which such determination is made.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax reform commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”). Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, the effects of changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period which the new legislation is enacted. The TCJA made broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, including, but not limited to: (1) a reduction in the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%; (2) changed the rules related to uses and limitations of net operating loss carryforwards created in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017; (3) permits acceleration of expensing on certain qualified property; (4) created a new limitation on deductible interest expense to 30% of tax adjusted EBITDA through 2021 and then 30% of tax adjusted EBIT thereafter; (5) eliminated the corporate alternative minimum tax; (6) provides further limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation under IRC §162(m) for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017; (7) required a one-time transition tax related to the transition of U.S. international tax from a worldwide tax system to a territorial tax system; and (8) made additional changes to the U.S. international tax rules including imposing a minimum tax on global intangible low taxed income (“GILTI”) and other base erosion anti-abuse provisions.

In response to the TCJA, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of TCJA. The purpose of SAB 118 was to address any uncertainty or diversity of view in applying ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes in the reporting period in which the TCJA was enacted. Additionally, SAB 118 allowed for a measurement period to finalize the impacts of the TCJA, not to extend beyond one year from the date of enactment.

In connection with the Company’s initial analysis of the impact of the TCJA, the Company has recorded a provisional decrease in its deferred tax assets and liabilities of $4,706 related to the remeasurement of the deferred tax assets and liabilities at the reduced U.S. federal tax rate of 21%. The Company was subject to a one-time transition tax based on the total post-1986 earnings and profits which was principally offset by the Company’s tax attributes. During the year ended February 28, 2019, the Company finalized its accounting for the tax effects of the TCJA with no material changes to the provisional estimate recorded in prior periods.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Diluted EBITDA per Common Share

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Diluted Adjusted EBITDA per common share are not financial measures recognized by GAAP. EBITDA represents net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, before interest expense and bank charges, taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, gains on the sale of discontinued operations, losses on forward contracts, impairment charges, investment gains and losses, restructuring charges, and environmental remediation charges. Depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and impairment charges are non-cash items. Diluted Adjusted EBITDA per common share represents the Company's diluted earnings per common share based on Adjusted EBITDA.

We present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Diluted Adjusted EBITDA per common share in this Form 10-K because we consider them to be useful and appropriate supplemental measures of our performance. Adjusted EBITDA and diluted adjusted earnings per common share help us to evaluate our performance without the effects of certain GAAP calculations that may not have a direct cash impact on our current operating performance. In addition, the exclusion of certain costs or gains relating to certain events that occurred during the periods presented allows for a more meaningful comparison of our results from period-to-period. These non-GAAP measures, as we define them, are not necessarily comparable to similarly entitled measures of other companies and may not be an appropriate measure for performance relative to other companies. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Diluted Adjusted EBITDA per common share should not be assessed in isolation from, are not intended to represent, and should not be considered to be more meaningful measures than, or alternatives to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows, Commitments and Obligations

As of February 28, 2019, we had working capital of $151,169 which includes cash and cash equivalents of $58,236 compared with working capital of $170,472 at February 28, 2018, which included cash and cash equivalents of $51,740. We plan to utilize our current cash position as well as collections from accounts receivable, the cash generated from our operations, when applicable, and the income on our investments to fund the current operations of the business.  However, we may utilize all or a portion of current capital resources to pursue other business opportunities, including acquisitions, or to further pay down our debt.   The following table summarizes our cash flow activity for all periods presented:

37

	Year Ended			Year Ended			Year Ended
	February 28, 2019			February 28, 2018			February 28, 2017
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	22,562		$	(25,539	)	$	(1,790	)

Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	6,496		$	43,940		$	(3,967	)

Net cash used in/provided by operating activities:

Operating activities provided cash of $22,562 for Fiscal 2019, partially due to a decrease in inventory, as the Company purchases its inventory in line with sales levels, which have declined in the current fiscal year, as well as a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets. This was offset by lower earnings achieved by the Company in Fiscal 2019, driven in part by sales declines and losses incurred by EyeLock LLC. The Company also had a decrease in accounts receivable, directly resulting from lower sales in the fiscal year.  

During Fiscal 2018, operating activities used cash of $25,539 principally due to net losses incurred by EyeLock LLC, an increase in the Company's prepaid expenses and other assets, as well as a net decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses. This was offset by a decrease in inventory. 

During Fiscal 2017, operating activities used cash of $1,790 primarily as a result of an increase in inventory, as well as accounts receivable, partially offset by a decrease in vendor receivables.   

Net cash used in/provided by investing activities:

Investing activities used cash of $11,037 during Fiscal 2019, primarily as a result of the issuance of notes receivable to 360fly, Inc. (see Note 1(f)), as well as capital additions made by the Company.

During Fiscal 2018, investing activities provided cash of $161,360 primarily as a result of the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017 (see Note 2), which was offset by capital additions, as well as the acquisition of Rosen Electronics LLC (see Note 2) and the issuance of notes receivable to 360fly, Inc. (see Note 1(f)).

During Fiscal 2017, investing activities used cash of $12,130, primarily due to capital additions related to new computer equipment, as well as the in-progress additions to the Company's shared service facility in Hauppauge, NY.

Net cash used in/provided by financing activities:

Financing activities used cash of $924 during Fiscal 2019, primarily due to the repayment of outstanding bank obligations, which include mortgages, capital leases, and an asset based lending facility in Germany; offset by borrowings related to the German asset based lending facility.

During Fiscal 2018, financing activities used cash of $92,247, primarily due to the repayment of balances outstanding on the Company's Credit Facility following the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017.

During Fiscal 2017, financing activities provided cash of $9,695, due to borrowings of bank obligations net of repayments, primarily in relation to the Company's Credit Facility.

The Company has a senior secured credit facility (the "Credit Facility") that provides for a revolving credit facility with committed availability of up to $140,000, which may be increased, at the option of the Company, up to a maximum of $175,000, and a term loan in the amount of $15,000. The Credit Facility also includes a $15,000 sublimit for letters of credit and a $15,000 sublimit for swingline loans. The availability under the revolving credit line within the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based on eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory and certain real estate, subject to reserves as determined by the lender, and is also limited by amounts outstanding under the Florida Mortgage (see Note 7(b)). As of February 28, 2019, there was no balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility. The remaining availability under the revolving credit line of the Credit Facility was $86,685 as of February 28, 2019.

38

All amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility will mature and become due on April 26, 2021; however, it is subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Company may prepay any amounts outstanding at any time, subject to payment of certain breakage and redeployment costs relating to LIBOR Rate Loans. The commitments under the Credit Facility may be irrevocably reduced at any time, without premium or penalty as set forth in the agreement.

Generally, the Company may designate specific borrowings under the Credit Facility as either Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans, except that swingline loans may only be designated as Base Rate Loans. Loans under the Credit Facility designated as LIBOR Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate equal to the then-applicable LIBOR Rate plus a range of 1.75% - 2.25%. Loans under the Credit Facility designated as Base Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate equal to the applicable margin for Base Rate Loans of 0.75% - 1.25%, as defined in the agreement.

The Credit Facility requires compliance with a financial covenant calculated as of the last day of each month, consisting of a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Credit Facility also contains covenants, subject to defined carveouts, that limit the ability of the loan parties and certain of their subsidiaries which are not loan parties to, among other things: (i) incur additional indebtedness; (ii) incur liens; (iii) merge, consolidate or dispose of a substantial portion of their business; (iv) transfer or dispose of assets; (v) change their name, organizational identification number, state or province of organization or organizational identity; (vi) make any material change in their nature of business; (vii) prepay or otherwise acquire indebtedness; (viii) cause any Change of Control; (ix) make any Restricted Junior Payment; (x) change their fiscal year or method of accounting; (xi) make advances, loans or investments; (xii) enter into or permit any transaction with an Affiliate of any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries; (xiii) use proceeds for certain items; (xiv) issue or sell any of their stock; or (xv) consign or sell any of their inventory on certain terms. In addition, if excess availability under the Credit Facility were to fall below certain specified levels, as defined in the agreement, the lenders would have the right to assume dominion and control over the Company's cash. As of February 28, 2019, the Company was in compliance with this cash dominion covenant.

The obligations under the loan documents are secured by a general lien on and security interest in substantially all of the assets of the borrowers and certain of the guarantors, including accounts receivable, equipment, real estate, general intangibles and inventory. The Company has guaranteed the obligations of the borrowers under the Credit Facility.

The Company has a Euro asset-based loan facility in Germany with a credit limit of €8,000 that expires on July 31, 2020. The Company's subsidiaries Voxx German Holdings GmbH, Oehlbach Kabel GmbH, and Schwaiger GmbH are authorized to borrow funds under this facility for working capital purposes.

The Company also utilizes supply chain financing arrangements and factoring agreements as a component of our financing for working capital, which accelerates receivable collection and helps to better manage cash flow. Under the agreements, the Company has agreed to sell certain of its accounts receivable balances to banking institutions who have agreed to advance amounts equal to the net accounts receivable balances due, less a discount as set forth in the respective agreements (see Note 1(h)). The balances under these agreements are accounted for as sales of accounts receivable, as they are sold without recourse. Cash proceeds from these agreements are reflected as operating activities included in the change in accounts receivable in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Fees incurred in connection with the agreements are recorded as interest expense by the Company.

Certain contractual cash obligations and other commitments will impact our short and long-term liquidity.  At February 28, 2019, such obligations and commitments are as follows:

	Amount of Commitment Expiration per Period
			Less than		1-3		4-5		After

Total Commitments	$	79,437	$	69,529	$	2,572	$	1,164	$	6,172

(1) Represents total principal payments due under capital lease obligations which have a current (included in other current liabilities) and long-term principal balance totaling $442 and $516, respectively at February 28, 2019.

(2) We enter into operating leases in the normal course of business.

(3) Represents amounts outstanding under the Voxx Germany Euro asset-based lending facility at February 28, 2019.

(4) We issue standby letters of credit to secure certain purchases and insurance requirements. These letters of credit are issued during the ordinary course of business through major domestic banks as requested by certain suppliers.  

(5) This amount includes balances outstanding under loans and mortgages for the construction of our manufacturing facility in Florida and for facilities purchased at Schwaiger and Voxx Germany. 

(6) Represents contingent consideration payments due in connection with the Rosen acquisition, as well as profit-sharing payments related to Invision.

(7) Represents the liability for an employer defined benefit pension plan covering certain eligible employees of Voxx Germany.

(8) Open purchase obligations represent inventory commitments.  These obligations are not recorded in the consolidated financial statements until commitments are fulfilled and such obligations are subject to change based on negotiations with manufacturers.

We regularly review our cash funding requirements and attempt to meet those requirements through a combination of cash on hand, cash provided by operations, available borrowings under bank lines of credit and possible future public or private debt and/or equity offerings.  At times, we evaluate possible acquisitions of, or investments in, businesses that are complementary to ours, which transactions may require the use of cash.  We believe that our cash, other liquid assets, operating cash flows, credit arrangements, access to equity capital markets, taken together, provides adequate resources to fund ongoing operating expenditures, including the intercompany loan funding we provide to our majority owned subsidiary, EyeLock LLC. In the event that they do not, we may require additional funds in the future to support our working capital requirements or for other purposes and may seek to raise such additional funds through the sale of public or private equity and/or debt financings as well as from other sources.  No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available in the future or that if available, such financing will be obtainable on terms favorable when required.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not maintain any off-balance sheet arrangements, transactions, obligations or other relationships with unconsolidated entities that would be expected to have a material current or future effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

Impact of Inflation and Currency Fluctuation

Inflation did not have a material impact on our operations for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 or February 28, 2017. Severe increases in inflation; however, could affect the global and U.S. economies and could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Discussion of the impact of foreign currency fluctuations is included in Item 7A.

Effective January 1, 2010, according to the guidelines in ASC 830, Venezuela was designated as a hyper-inflationary economy.  A hyper-inflationary economy designation occurs when a country has experienced cumulative inflation of approximately 100 percent or more over a 3-year period.  The hyper-inflationary designation requires the local subsidiary in Venezuela to record all transactions as if they were denominated in U.S. dollars.  The Company transitioned to hyper-inflationary accounting on March 1, 2010 for Venezuela and continues to account for the subsidiary under this method.

Since January 2014, the Venezuelan government has created multiple alternative exchange rates designated to be used for the purchase of goods and services deemed non-essential. In March 2016, the government re-named its Marginal Currency System the DICOM exchange rate, which the Venezuelan government reported would be allowed to float to meet market needs. On August 20, 2018, the government further devalued the Bolivar Fuerte in an attempt to address continuing hyperinflation, also renaming it the Sovereign Bolivar. As of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, the DICOM rate was deemed to be the appropriate rate to use for remeasuring its Venezuelan subsidiary’s financial statements and the published rates offered were approximately 3,290 and 35,280 Bolivar Fuerte/$1, respectively. Net currency exchange losses of $6 and $148 were recorded for the years ended February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. All currency exchange gains and losses are included in Other (Expense) Income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

The Company has certain U. S. dollar denominated assets and liabilities in its Venezuelan subsidiary, including our U.S. dollar denominated intercompany debt, which has been subject to currency fluctuations associated with the devaluation of the VBF. The Company also has certain long-lived assets in Venezuela, which are held for investment purposes. During the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company made an assessment of the recoverability of these properties as a result of the country's continued economic deterioration, which included the significant currency devaluation in August of 2018. The Company estimated the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be received from these properties. The estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows considered the Company’s financial condition and its intent and ability to retain its investments for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of the carrying value. The future undiscounted cash flows did not exceed the net carrying value for the long-lived assets. The estimated fair value of the properties, which also considered the current conditions of the economy in Venezuela, the volatility of the real estate market, and the significant political unrest, resulted in a full non-cash impairment charge of $3,473 for the year ended February 28, 2019. The non-cash impairment charge is included in Other (Expense) Income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

Seasonality

We typically experience seasonality in our operations. We generally sell a substantial amount of our products during September, October and November due to increased promotional and advertising activities during the holiday season. Our business is also significantly impacted by the holiday season.

Item 7A-Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The market risk inherent in our financial instruments and positions is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in marketable equity security prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

Marketable Securities

41

Marketable securities at February 28, 2019, which are related to the Company's deferred compensation plan, are recorded at fair value of $2,858 and have exposure to price fluctuations. This risk is estimated as the potential loss in fair value resulting from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in prices quoted by stock exchanges and amounts to $286 as of February 28, 2019. Actual results may differ.

Interest Rate Risk

Our earnings and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in interest rates on investment of available cash balances in money market funds and investment grade corporate and U.S. government securities. In addition, our bank loans expose us to changes in short-term interest rates since interest rates on the underlying obligations are either variable or fixed. In connection with our Florida Mortgage, we have debt outstanding in the amount of $8,112 at February 28, 2019. Interest on the Florida Mortgage is charged at 70% of 1-month LIBOR plus 1.54%. We have an interest rate swap for the Florida Mortgage with a notional amount of $8,112 at February 28, 2019 which locks the interest rate at 3.48% (inclusive of credit spread) through the mortgage end date of March 2026.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Voxx conducts business in various non-U.S. countries including Germany, Canada, Mexico, China, Denmark, the Netherlands and France and thus is exposed to market risk for changes in foreign currency exchange rates. As a result, we have exposure to various foreign currency exchange rates fluctuations for revenues generated by our operations outside of the U.S., which can adversely impact our net income and cash flows. A hypothetical 10% adverse change in the foreign currency rates for our international operations would have resulted in a negative impact on sales and net income of approximately $8,200 and $400, respectively, for the year ended February 28, 2019.

While the prices we pay for products purchased from our suppliers are principally denominated in United States dollars, price negotiations depend in part on the foreign currency of foreign manufacturers, as well as market, trade and political factors. The Company also has exposure related to transactions in which the currency collected from customers is different from the currency utilized to purchase the product sold in its foreign operations, and U. S. dollar denominated purchases in its foreign subsidiaries. The Company enters forward contracts to hedge certain euro-related transactions. The Company minimizes the risk of nonperformance on the forward contracts by transacting with major financial institutions. During Fiscal 2019, 2018, and 2017, the Company held forward contracts specifically designated for hedging (see Note 1(e) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). As of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, unrealized gains (losses) of $708 and $(1,635), respectively, were recorded in other comprehensive income associated with these contracts. A hypothetical 10% adverse change in the fair value of our forward exchange contracts would result in a negative impact of $17 on the fair value of our forward exchange contracts at February 28, 2019.

We are also subject to risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates from the translation of financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries and for long-term intercompany loans with the foreign subsidiaries. These changes result in cumulative translation adjustments, which are included in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. At February 28, 2019, we had translation exposure to various foreign currencies with the most significant being the Euro, Canadian Dollar, and Mexican Peso. A hypothetical 10% adverse change in the foreign currency exchange rates would result in a negative impact of $106 on Other comprehensive (loss) income for the year ended February 28, 2019.

The Company continues to monitor the political and economic climate in Venezuela. Venezuela did not have any sales for the year ended February 28, 2019 and had no significant cash related assets subject to government foreign exchange controls. The Company has certain long-lived assets in Venezuela, which are held for investment purposes. During the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company made an assessment of the recoverability of these properties as a result of the country's continued economic deterioration, which included a significant currency devaluation in August of 2018. The Company concluded that these properties were fully impaired as of its second quarter ended August 31, 2018 and recorded an impairment charge of $3,473 for the year ended February 28, 2019. The non-cash impairment charge is included in Other (Expense) Income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The value of the Company's properties held for investment purposes in Venezuela is $0 as of February 28, 2019.

Item 9A-Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

VOXX International Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities and Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in accordance with the SEC's rules and regulations, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial disclosures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon this evaluation as of February 28, 2019, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were deemed to be effective and adequately designed.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting; as such term is defined in the Securities and Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

• Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

• Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and

• Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders

VOXX International Corporation

Opinion on internal control over financial reporting

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of VOXX International Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of February 28, 2019, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2019, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidatedfinancial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended February 28, 2019 and our report dated May 14, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Basis for opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanyingManagement’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and limitations of internal control over financial reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

VOXX International Corporation

Opinion on the financial statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of VOXX International Corporation (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of February 28, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended February 28, 2019 and the related notes and schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15 (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 February 28, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended February 28, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2019, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), and our report dated May 14, 2019expressed an unqualified opinion.

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 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. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. 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 supporting 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.

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

1) Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

a)Description of Business

VOXX International Corporation ("Voxx," "We," "Our," "Us" or "the Company") is a leading international manufacturer and distributor in the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories industries. The Company has widely diversified interests, with more than 30 global brands that it has acquired and grown throughout the years, achieving a powerful international corporate image and creating a vehicle for each of these respective brands to emerge with its own identity. We conduct our business through sixteen wholly-owned subsidiaries: Audiovox Atlanta Corp., VOXX Electronics Corporation, VOXX Accessories Corp., VOXX German Holdings GmbH ("Voxx Germany"), Audiovox Canada Limited, Voxx Hong Kong Ltd., Audiovox International Corp., Audiovox Mexico, S. de R.L. de C.V. ("Voxx Mexico"), Code Systems, Inc., Oehlbach Kabel GmbH ("Oehlbach"), Schwaiger GmbH ("Schwaiger"), Invision Automotive Systems, Inc. ("Invision"), Klipsch Holding LLC ("Klipsch"), Omega Research and Development, LLC ("Omega"), Voxx Automotive Corp., and Audiovox Websales LLC, as well as one majority-owned subsidiary, EyeLock LLC ("EyeLock"). We market our products under the Audiovox® brand name, other brand names and licensed brands, such as 808®, Acoustic Research®, Advent®, Car Link®, Chapman®, Code-Alarm®, Discwasher®, Energy®, Heco®, Invision®, Jamo®, Klipsch®, Mac Audio^™, Magnat®, Mirage®, myris®, Oehlbach®, Omega®, Prestige®, Project Nursery®, RCA®, RCA Accessories®, Rosen®, Schwaiger®, Terk® and Voxx Automotive, as well as private labels through a large domestic and international distribution network.  We also function as an OEM ("Original Equipment Manufacturer") supplier to several customers, as well as market a number of products under exclusive distribution agreements, such as SiriusXM satellite radio products. 

On August 31, 2017, the Company completed its sale of Hirschmann Car Communication GmbH and its subsidiaries. See Note 2 for more details of this transaction. 

The Company's fiscal year ends on the last day of February. Fiscal 2017 represents the twelve months ended February 28, 2017. Fiscal 2018 represents the twelve months ended February 28, 2018. Fiscal 2019 represents the twelve months ended February 28, 2019.

b)Principles of Consolidation, Reclassifications and Accounting Principles

The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes include the financial statements of VOXX International Corporation and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company follows FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 810-10-45-21 to report a non-controlling interest in the consolidated balance sheets within the equity section, separately from the Company’s retained earnings. Non-controlling interest represents the non-controlling interest holder’s proportionate share of the equity of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary, EyeLock. Non-controlling interest is adjusted for the non-controlling interest holder’s proportionate share of the earnings or losses and other comprehensive income (loss), if any, and the non-controlling interest continues to be attributed its share of losses even if that attribution results in a deficit non-controlling interest balance.

Equity investments in which the Company exercises significant influence but does not control and is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for using the equity method.  The Company's share of its equity method investee's earnings or losses is included in Other (Expense) Income in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The Company eliminates its pro rata share of gross profit on sales to its equity method investee for inventory on hand at the investee at the end of the year. Investments in which the Company does not exercise significant influence over the investee, and which do not have readily determinable fair values, are accounted for under the cost method.

53

The Company's consolidated financial statements for Fiscal 2017 were recast to reflect a certain business that was classified as discontinued operations during the second quarter of Fiscal 2018. See Note 2 for additional information. Earnings per share amounts for continuing and discontinued operations are computed independently. As a result, the sum of the per share amounts may not equal the total.

c)Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses.  Such estimates include revenue recognition; accrued sales incentives; the allowance for doubtful accounts; inventory valuation; valuation of long-lived assets; valuation and impairment assessment of goodwill, trademarks and other intangible assets; warranty reserves; stock-based compensation; recoverability of deferred tax assets; and the reserve for uncertain tax positions at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

d)Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits with banks and highly liquid money market funds with original maturities of three months or less when purchased.  Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $58,236 and $51,740 at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in institutions and funds of high credit quality. Many of its balances are in excess of government insurance. We perform periodic evaluations of these institutions and funds. Cash amounts held in foreign bank accounts amounted to $325 and $303 at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively, none of which would be subject to United States federal income taxes if made available for use in the United States. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provides a 100% participation exemption on dividends received from foreign corporations after January 1, 2018 as the United States has moved away from a worldwide tax system and closer to a territorial system for earnings of foreign corporations.

e)Fair Value Measurements and Derivatives

The Company applies the authoritative guidance on "Fair Value Measurements," which among other things, requires enhanced disclosures about investments that are measured and reported at fair value. This guidance establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1 - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs developed using the Company's estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use.

The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at February 28, 2019:

54

			Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using
	Carrying Value		Level 1		Level 2
Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash and money market funds	$	58,236	$	58,236	$	—

The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at February 28, 2018:

				Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using
	Carrying Value			Level 1		Level 2
Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash and money market funds	$	51,740		$	51,740	$	—

Other investments at amortized cost (a)	547			—		—
Total investment securities	$	4,167		$	3,620	$	—

(a) This balance represents an investment in a non-controlled corporation held at cost at February 28, 2018 (See Note 1(f)). The fair value of this investment would be based upon Level 3 inputs and was not considered material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The carrying amount of the Company's accounts receivable, short-term debt, accounts payable, accrued expenses, bank obligations and long-term debt approximates fair value because of (i) the short-term nature of the financial instrument; (ii) the interest rate on the financial instrument being reset every quarter to reflect current market rates, or (iii) the stated or implicit interest rate approximates the current market rates or are not materially different than market rates.

Non-financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain long-lived non-financial assets and liabilities may be required to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in certain circumstances, including when there is evidence of impairment. These non-financial assets and liabilities may include assets acquired in a business combination or property and equipment that are determined to be impaired. As of February 28, 2019, certain non-financial assets have been measured at fair value subsequent to their initial recognition. See Note 1(p) for the discussion of the impairment of Venezuela investment properties, Note 1(k) for the discussion of the impairment of certain intangible assets, as well as Note 1(f) for the discussion of the impairment of notes receivable.

Derivative Instruments

The Company's derivative instruments include forward foreign currency contracts utilized to hedge a portion of its foreign currency inventory purchases. The Company also has an interest rate swap agreement as of February 28, 2019 that hedges interest rate exposure related to the forecasted outstanding balance of its Florida

55

Mortgage with monthly payments due through March 2026. The forward foreign currency derivatives qualifying for hedge accounting are designated as cash flow hedges and valued using observable forward rates for the same or similar instruments (Level 2). The duration of open forward foreign currency contracts ranges from 1 month - 12 months and are classified in the balance sheet according to their terms. Interest rate swap agreements qualifying for hedge accounting are designated as cash flow hedges and valued based on a comparison of the change in fair value of the actual swap contracts designated as the hedging instruments and the change in fair value of a hypothetical swap contract (Level 2). We calculate the fair value of interest rate swap agreements quarterly based on the quoted market price for the same or similar financial instruments. Interest rate swaps are classified in the balance sheet as either non-current assets or non-current liabilities based on the fair value of the instruments at the end of the period. The swap agreement related to the Company's Florida Mortgage locks the interest rate on the debt at 3.48% (inclusive of credit spread) through the maturity date of the mortgage.

It is the Company's policy to enter into derivative instrument contracts with terms that coincide with the underlying exposure being hedged. As such, the Company's derivative instruments are expected to be highly effective. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, is recognized as incurred through Other (Expense) Income in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income and amounted to $46, $(48) and $130 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

Financial Statement Classification

The Company holds derivative instruments that are designated as hedging instruments. The following table discloses the fair value as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 for derivative instruments:

	Derivative Assets and Liabilities
		Fair Value
	Account	February 28, 2019			February 28, 2018
Designated derivative instruments
Foreign currency contracts	Accrued expenses and other current liabilities	$	—		$	(227	)
	Prepaid expenses and other current assets	172			—
Interest rate swap	Other long-term liabilities	(84		)	(35		)
Total derivatives		$	88		$	(262	)

Cash flow hedges

During Fiscal 2019, the Company entered into forward foreign currency contracts, which have a current outstanding notional value of $9,600 at February 28, 2019 and are designated as cash flow hedges. The current outstanding notional value of the Company's interest rate swap at February 28, 2019 was $8,112. For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss is reported as a component of Other comprehensive (loss) income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

Activity related to cash flow hedges from continuing operations recorded during the twelve months ended February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 was as follows:

56

	February 28, 2019								February 28, 2018
	Gain (Loss) Recognized in Other Comprehensive Income			Gain (Loss) Reclassified into Cost of Sales			Gain (Loss) for Ineffectiveness in Other Income		Gain (Loss) Recognized in Other Comprehensive Income			Gain (Loss) Reclassified into Cost of Sales			Gain (Loss) for Ineffectiveness in Other Income
Cash flow hedges
Foreign currency contracts	$	708		$	(13	)	$	46	$	(1,635	)	$	(297	)	$	(48	)
Interest rate swaps	$	(49	)	$	—		$	—	$	263		$	—		$	—

The net gain recognized in Other comprehensive (loss) income for foreign currency contracts is expected to be recognized in cost of sales within the next fifteen months. No amounts were excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness during the respective periods. During the years ended February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, no contracts originally designated for hedge accounting were de-designated. As of February 28, 2019, no contracts originally designated for hedge accounting were terminated. See Note 1(v) for information regarding activity related to cash flow hedges pertaining to discontinued operations and assets and liabilities held for sale.

f)Investment Securities

Long-Term Investments

Equity Securities

As required, in the first quarter of Fiscal 2019 the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” ("ASU 2016-01"), which requires changes to the

57

accounting for financial instruments that affect the Company’s equity investments and the presentation and disclosure for such instruments. Marketable equity securities previously classified as available-for-sale equity investments are now measured and recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The impact of adopting ASU 2016-01 resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment of $24, which was recorded in Other (expense) income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income for the year ended February 28, 2019, rather than in retained earnings, as it was not considered material to the Company's consolidated financial statements for the period.

Mutual Funds

The Company’s mutual funds are held in connection with its deferred compensation plan. Changes in the carrying value of these securities are offset by changes in the corresponding deferred compensation liability.

Upon the adoption of ASU 2016-01, changes in fair value of equity securities are now recorded within the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income, and as such, other than temporary impairment ("OTTI") considerations are no longer made with respect to equity securities. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-01, in determining whether equity securities were other than temporarily impaired, the Company considered its intent and ability to hold a security for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of cost, along with factors including the length of time each security had been in an unrealized loss position, the extent of the decline and the near-term prospect for recovery. Additionally, on a quarterly basis, the Company was required to make a qualitative assessment of whether the investment was impaired. No other-than-temporary losses were incurred for the years ended February 28, 2018 or February 28, 2017.

Investments Held at Cost, Less Impairment

At February 28, 2018, other long-term investments consisted of investment in a non-controlled corporation accounted for by the cost method. On July 31, 2017, RxNetworks, a Canadian company in which Voxx held a cost method investment consisting of shares of the investee's preferred stock, was sold to a third party. In consideration for its holdings in RxNetworks on July 31, 2017, Voxx received cash, as well as a proportionate share of the value (consisting of common stock) in a newly formed subsidiary of RxNetworks, called Fathom Systems Inc. ("Fathom"), a start-up company. As a result of this transaction, Voxx recognized a gain of $1,416 for the year ended February 28, 2018. The cash proceeds were subject to a hold-back provision, which was not included in the calculation of the gain recognized. The Company's investment in Fathom totaled $547 or 8.1% of the outstanding common shares of Fathom at February 28, 2018. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, Fathom repurchased all of the outstanding common stock of its shareholders for a price per share significantly below the value when issued. This resulted in a loss on Voxx's investment in Fathom of $530 for the year ended February 28, 2019. Voxx has no remaining investment or ownership in Fathom Systems Inc. as of February 28, 2019.

The Company holds various notes receivable from 360fly, Inc. ("360fly"), designers and creators of 360° cameras and technology. These notes receivable, which aggregated $17,242 principal amount at February 28, 2019. Of the $17,242 notes receivable, $14,107 were convertible into preferred stock of 360fly, Inc. At November 30, 2018, these notes aggregated $15,588 principal amount, were recorded in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet under the caption Prepaid expenses and other current assets.

On December 12, 2018, one of the notes was amended to increase the available amount under the note by $1,000 and amend the due date to January 7, 2019. Of the notes receivable then outstanding, a $5,271 aggregate principal balance, which included a previous cash advance of $231 secured by the amendment, became payable on January 7, 2019, and the aggregate principal balance of $10,588 was payable on August 31, 2019. These notes receivable are senior secured notes and were collateralized by the intangible and tangible assets of 360fly, Inc. The notes bear interest at 8% per annum. Prior to close of business on January 7, 2019, the Company amended the note receivable that was due on January 7, 2019 increasing the amount available under the note by an additional $500 and extending the payment terms to January 19, 2019.

58

As all of the notes receivable are due from the same debtor, all the notes are deemed to have the same credit quality. The notes receivable were on a non-accrual status during the three and twelve months ended February 28, 2019, and during the year ended February 28, 2018, as payment of interest was not reasonably assured. The credit quality of the notes receivable was previously deemed to not present a significant risk of loss or default of the principal payments based upon on-going business developments. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, the credit quality of the debtor deteriorated.

On January 23, 2019, the Company, as Collateral Agent for the senior secured lenders, and for itself, provided a Notice of Maturity, Default and Acceleration to 360fly, Inc., indicating that: (i) all the unpaid principal of $16,818 and accrued interest owed under all the outstanding notes with the Company became due as a result of uncured defaults in payment under the notes; and (ii) the Company, as Collateral Agent, would proceed with foreclosure of collateral, securing the notes, with a scheduled auction date of March 5, 2019. Notice of the auction was provided through public advertisement and online posting during the month of February 2019.

Prior to February 28, 2019, the Company was in negotiations with other senior secured lenders of 360fly, seeking to establish a new company with the senior secured lenders ("Newco") for the purposes of acquiring 360fly's assets through a credit bid at the foreclosure sale. If the credit bid was successful, the Company planned to provide funding to Newco to maintain sufficient staff and related expenses to continue to develop products and associated technology for anticipated sales to prospective customers. 360fly was not able to secure any additional funding, meet its projections for January or February 2019, provide any assurances that the missed projections would be achieved or of further development with prospective customers, and ultimately ceased normal business operations. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company lent additional funds totaling $1,423 to 360fly, a portion of which was provided subsequent to the due date of the notes to secure the collateral. In addition, negotiations with other potential investors to purchase a portion of the Company's notes ceased.

Based on the above events and conditions present at February 28, 2019, the Company determined that the notes receivable were uncollectible. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge for the three and twelve months ended February 28, 2019 of $16,509 (net of reserves) as it was probable that the Company would not be, and was not, paid in accordance with the contractual terms of the notes, as all amounts were due on January 19, 2019. As the notes are collateral dependent notes, the estimated fair value of the collateral was compared to the carrying value of the notes. The fair value of the collateral, less cost to sell, was deemed to be zero at February 28, 2019, after consideration of the absence of potential bidders in the auction process, costs to sell the collateral at a future date, prospects for future revenue streams related to the collateral barring additional development expenditures, and the speculative nature of proceeds from a future sale.

On March 5, 2019, the Company, as Collateral Agent, was the only bidder at the auction with a credit bid of $1,000 and was awarded the collateral. In late March 2019, the Company and the other secured lenders determined they would not attempt to continue the development of 360fly with the intangible assets acquired at auction.

g)Revenue Recognition

On March 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all the related amendments (“ASC Topic 606”), using the modified retrospective method. In addition, we elected to apply certain of the permitted practical expedients within the revenue recognition guidance and make certain accounting policy elections, including those related to significant financing components, sales taxes and shipping and handling activities. Most of the changes resulting from the adoption of ASC Topic 606 on March 1, 2018 were changes in presentation within the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Therefore, while we made adjustments to certain opening balances on our March 1, 2018 Consolidated Balance Sheet, we made no adjustment to opening Retained Earnings. We expect the impact of the adoption of ASC Topic 606 to be immaterial to our net income on an ongoing basis; however, adoption did increase the level of disclosures concerning our net sales. Results for reporting periods beginning March 1, 2018 are presented under the new guidance, while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previous guidance without revision.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The core principle of ASC Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled

59

in exchange for those goods and services. We apply the FASB’s guidance on revenue recognition, which requires us to recognize the amount of revenue and consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for goods and services transferred to our customers. To do this, the Company applies the five-step model prescribed by the FASB, which requires us to: (i) identify the contract with the customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

We account for a contract or purchase order when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. Revenue is recognized when control of the product passes to the customer, which is upon shipment, unless otherwise specified within the customer contract or on the purchase order as delivery, and is recognized at the amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive for the products sold, including various forms of discounts. When revenue is recorded, estimates of returns are made and recorded as a reduction of revenue. Contracts with customers are evaluated to determine if there are separate performance obligations related to timing of product shipment that will be satisfied in different accounting periods. When that is the case, revenue is deferred until each performance obligation is met. Within our Automotive segment, while the majority of the contracts we enter into with Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEM”) are long-term supply arrangements, the performance obligations are established by the enforceable contract, which is generally considered to be the purchase order. The purchase orders are of durations less than one year. As such, the Company applies the practical expedient in ASC paragraph 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less, for which work has not yet been performed. The Company has also elected the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4, whereby the Company recognizes incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the assets the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less.

Certain taxes assessed by governmental authorities on revenue producing transactions, such as value added taxes, are excluded from revenue and recorded on a net basis.

Performance Obligations

The Company’s primary source of revenue is derived from the manufacture and distribution of premium audio, consumer accessories, and automotive products. Our consumer accessories products primarily consist of finished goods sold to retail customers, while our premium audio products primarily consist of finished goods sold to both retail and commercial customers. Our automotive products are sold both to OEM and aftermarket customers. Over fifty percent of the products sold to our automotive customers are manufactured by the Company. We recognize revenue for sales to our customers when transfer of control of the related good or service has occurred. All of our revenue was recognized under the point in time approach for the year ended February 28, 2019. Contract terms with certain of our OEM customers could result in products and services being transferred over time as a result of the customized nature of some of our products, together with contractual provisions in the customer contracts that provide us with an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date; however, under typical terms, we do not have the right to consideration until the time of shipment from our manufacturing facilities or distribution centers, or until the time of delivery to our customers. If certain contracts in the future provide the Company with this enforceable right of payment, the timing of revenue recognition from products transferred to customers over time may be slightly accelerated compared to our right to consideration at the time of shipment or delivery.

Our typical payment terms vary based on thecustomer and the type of goods and services in the contract or purchase order. The period of time between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. Amounts billed and due from our customers are classified as receivables on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. As our standard payment terms are less than one year, we have elected the practical expedient under ASC paragraph 606-10-32-18 to not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component.

Our customers take delivery of goods, and they are recognized as revenue at the time of transfer of control to the customer, which is usually at the time of shipment, unless otherwise specified in the customer contract or purchase order. This determination is based on applicable shipping terms, as well as the consideration of other indicators, including timing of when the Company has a present right to payment, when physical possession of products is transferred to customers, when the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset, and any provisions in contracts regarding customer acceptance.

60

While unit prices are generally fixed, we provide variable consideration for certain of our customers, typically in the form of promotional incentives at the time of sale. We utilize the most likely amount consistently to estimate the effect of uncertainty on the amount of variable consideration to which we would be entitled. The most likely amount method considers the single most likely amount from a range of possible consideration amounts. The most likely amounts are based upon the contractual terms of the incentives and historical experience with each customer. We record estimates for cash discounts, promotional rebates, and other promotional allowances in the period the related revenue is recognized (“Customer Credits”). The provision for Customer Credits is recorded as a reduction from gross sales and reserves for Customer Credits are presented within accrued sales incentives on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Actual Customer Credits have not differed materially from estimated amounts for each period presented. Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling are included in net sales and costs associated with shipping and handling are included in cost of sales. We have concluded that our estimates of variable consideration are not constrained according to the definition within the standard. Additionally, the Company applies the practical expedient in ASC paragraph 606-10-25-18B and accounts for shipping and handling activities that occur after the customer has obtained control of a good as a fulfillment activity, rather than a separate performance obligation.

With the adoption of ASC Topic 606, we reclassified certain amounts related to variable consideration. Under ASC Topic 606, we are required to present a refund liability and a return asset within the Consolidated Balance Sheet, whereas in periods prior to adoption, we presented the estimated margin impact of expected returns as a contra-asset within accounts receivable. The changes in the refund liability are reported in net sales, and the changes in the return asset are reported in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. As a result, the balance sheet presentation was adjusted beginning in Fiscal 2019. See Note 14 for return asset and refund liability balances as of February 28, 2019.

We warrant our products against certain defects in material and workmanship when used as designed, which primarily range from 30 days to 3 years. We offer limited lifetime warranties on certain products, which limit the customer’s remedy to the repair or replacement of the defective product or part for the designated lifetime of the product, or for the life of the vehicle for the original owner, if it is an automotive product. We do not sell extended warranties.

Contract Balances

Contract assets primarily relate to the Company’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date on contracts with customers. Contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional. Contract liabilities primarily relate to contracts where advance payments or deposits have been received, but performance obligations have not yet been met, and therefore, revenue has not been recognized.

h)Accounts Receivable

The majority of the Company's accounts receivable are due from companies in the retail, mass merchant and OEM industries. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer's financial condition. Accounts receivable are generally due within 30 days - 60 days and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the contracted payment terms are considered past due.

Accounts receivable is comprised of the following:

	February 28, 2019		February 28, 2018
Trade accounts receivable	$	77,064	$	84,517
Less:
Allowance for doubtful accounts	2,548		2,196
Allowance for cash discounts	1,125		1,205
	$	73,391	$	81,116

61

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customers' current credit worthiness, as determined by a review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. While such credit losses have historically been within management's expectations and the provisions established, the Company cannot guarantee it will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that have been experienced in the past. The Company writes off accounts receivable balances when collection efforts have been exhausted and deemed uncollectible. Our five largest customer balances comprise 24% of our accounts receivable balance as of February 28, 2019. A significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any one of these customers could have a material adverse impact on the collectability of accounts receivable and our results of operations.

The Company has three supply chain financing agreements and factoring agreements with certain financial institutions to accelerate receivable collection and better manage cash flow. Under the agreements, the Company has agreed to sell these institutions certain of its accounts receivable balances. For those accounts receivables tendered to the banks and that the banks choose to purchase, the banks have agreed to advance an amount equal to the net accounts receivable balances due, less a discount as set forth in the respective agreements. The balances under these agreements are sold without recourse and are accounted for as sales of accounts receivable. Cash proceeds from these agreements are reflected as operating activities included in the change in accounts receivable in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Total balances from continuing operations sold under the agreements, net of discounts, for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 were approximately $105,000, $142,000 and $141,000, respectively. Fees incurred in connection with the agreements totaled $929, $957 and $877 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively, and are recorded within Interest and Bank Charges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

i)Inventory

The Company values its inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value ("NRV"). NRV is defined as estimated selling prices less costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The cost of the inventory is determined primarily on an average basis with a portion valued at standard cost, which approximates actual costs on the first-in, first-out basis. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on-hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on selling prices, indications from customers based upon current price negotiations and purchase orders.  The Company's industry is characterized by rapid technological change and frequent new product introductions that could result in an increase in the amount of obsolete inventory quantities on-hand. In addition, and as necessary, specific reserves for future known or anticipated events may be established.  The Company recorded inventory write-downs from continuing operations of $4,580, $2,733 and $1,987 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

Inventories by major category are as follows:

	February 28, 2019		February 28, 2018
Raw materials	$	27,518	$	28,071
Work in process	2,622		2,485
Finished goods	72,239		87,436
Inventory, net	$	102,379	$	117,992

j)Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Property under a capital lease is stated at the present value of minimum lease payments. Major improvements and replacements that extend service lives of the assets are capitalized. Minor replacements, and routine maintenance and repairs are charged

62

to expense as incurred. Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

A summary of property, plant and equipment, net, is as follows:

	February 28, 2019		February 28, 2018
Land	$	10,110	$	9,522
Buildings	49,301		51,375
Property under capital lease	1,907		1,578
Furniture and fixtures	3,878		4,262
Machinery and equipment	8,618		10,373
Construction-in-progress	155		148
Computer hardware and software	37,591		37,408
Automobiles	808		921
Leasehold improvements	2,682		2,713
	115,050		118,300
Less accumulated depreciation and amortization	54,557		53,041
	$	60,493	$	65,259

Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Buildings and improvements	20	-	40 years
Furniture and fixtures	5	-	15 years
Machinery and equipment	5	-	10 years
Computer hardware and software	3	-	5 years
Automobiles			3 years

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or estimated useful life of the asset. Assets acquired under capital leases are amortized over the term of the respective lease. Accumulated amortization of assets under capital lease totaled $979 and $669 at February 28, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment from continuing operations amounted to $5,360, $5,658 and $5,907 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively. Included in depreciation and amortization expense is amortization of computer software costs of $1,537, $1,611 and $1,473 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively. Also included in depreciation and amortization expense is $491, $372 and $153 of amortization expense related to property under capital leases for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

See Note 1(p) for discussion of long-lived asset impairment charges recorded for the year ended February 28, 2019 related to real estate properties held by the Company's Venezuela subsidiary.

k)Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and other intangible assets consist of the excess over the fair value of assets acquired (goodwill), and other intangible assets (patents, contracts, trademarks/tradenames, developed technology and customer relationships).  Values assigned to the respective assets are determined in accordance with ASC 805 "Business Combinations" ("ASC 805") and ASC 350 "Intangibles – Goodwill and Other" ("ASC 350").

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the cost of purchased businesses over the value of their underlying net assets. Generally, the primary valuation method used to determine the fair value ("FV") of acquired businesses

63

is the Discounted Future Cash Flow Method ("DCF").  A five-year period is analyzed using a risk adjusted discount rate.

The value of potential intangible assets separate from goodwill are independently evaluated and assigned to the respective categories.  The largest categories from our recently acquired businesses are Developed Technology, Trademarks, and Customer Relationships. The FV’s of trademarks acquired are determined using the Relief from Royalty Method based on projected sales of the trademarked products.  The FV’s of customer relationships and developed technology are determined using the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method which includes a DCF analysis, adjusted for a required return on tangible and intangible assets. The Company categorizes this fair value determination as Level 3 (unobservable) in the fair value hierarchy, as described in Note 1(e).

The guidance in ASC 350, including management’s business intent for its use; ongoing market demand for products relevant to the category and their ability to generate future cash flows; legal, regulatory or contractual provisions on its use or subsequent renewal, as applicable; and the cost to maintain or renew the rights to the assets, are considered in determining the useful life of all intangible assets.  If the Company determines that there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors which limit the useful life of the asset, an indefinite life will be assigned and evaluated for impairment as indicated below.  Goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not amortized.  Intangible assets that have a definite useful life are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life.

ASC 350 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives be tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that could more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.  Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are required to be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment if indicators of impairment exist. To determine the fair value of goodwill and intangible assets, there are many assumptions and estimates used that directly impact the results of the testing. Management has the ability to influence the outcome and ultimate results based on the assumptions and estimates chosen. If a significant change in these assumptions and/or estimates occurs, the Company could experience impairment charges, in addition to those noted below, in future periods.

Goodwill is tested using a two-step process. The first step is to identify a potential impairment, and the second step measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying amount of the reporting unit's goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value. For intangible assets with indefinite lives, primarily trademarks, the Company compared the fair value of each intangible asset with its carrying amount. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are considered impaired if the carrying value exceeds the fair value.  

Voxx's reporting units that carry goodwill are Invision, Rosen, and Klipsch. The Company has three operating segments based upon its products and internal organizational structure (see Note 13). These operating segments are the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories segments. The Invision and Rosen reporting units are located within the Automotive segment and the Klipsch reporting unit is located within the Premium Audio segment.

The Company performed its annual impairment test for goodwill as of February 28, 2019. The discount rates (developed using a weighted average cost of capital analysis) used in the goodwill test ranged from 13.0% to 13.1%. Based on the Company's goodwill impairment assessment, all reporting units with goodwill had estimated fair values as of February 28, 2019 that exceeded their carrying values. No goodwill impairment charges were recorded during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017. The goodwill balances of Invision, Klipsch and Rosen at February 28, 2019 are $7,372, $46,533, and $880, respectively.

During the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company re-evaluated its projections for several brands in its Consumer Accessories and Automotive segments based on lower than anticipated results. Specifically, during the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the lower than anticipated results were due to reduced product load-ins, increased competition for certain product lines, a streamlining of SKU’s, and a change in market strategy for one of its brands. Accordingly, these were considered indicators of impairment requiring the Company to test the related indefinite-lived tradenames for impairment as of August 31, 2018. As a result of this analysis, it was determined that several of the Company’s Consumer Accessory trademarks and one Automotive trademark were

64

impaired. The Company recorded impairment charges of $9,654 and $160 during the quarter ended August 31, 2018 for the Consumer Accessories and Automotive segments, respectively.

The Company also tested its indefinite-lived intangible assets as of February 28, 2019 as part of its annual impairment testing. During the fourth quarter, the Company further streamlined its SKU’s in conjunction with its corporate realignment and transformation initiatives, and adjusted expectations for select customer demand, and the anticipated results from alternative sales channels for one of its brands. As a result of this analysis, it was determined that two of the Company’s Consumer Accessory trademarks were impaired. The Company recorded additional impairment charges of $15,975 during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019 related to the Consumer Accessories segment.

To perform these impairment analyses, the respective fair values were estimated using a Relief-from-Royalty Method, applying royalty rates of 0.5% to 7.0% for the trademarks after reviewing comparable market rates, the profitability of the products associated with relative intangible assets, and other qualitative factors. We determined that risk-adjusted discount rates ranging from 12.4% to 25.0% were appropriately developed using a weighted average cost of capital analysis. The long-term growth rates ranged from 0% to 3.0%.

The Fiscal 2019 impairment charges recorded during the second and fourth quarters were the result of various considerations and initiatives that occurred during the fiscal year. These factors led to the Fiscal 2019 impairment charges for indefinite lived intangibles of $25,789 outlined above. No impairment charges were recorded related to indefinite-lived intangible assets for the years ended February 28, 2018 or February 28, 2017.

As a result of the Fiscal 2019 impairments, the Company evaluated the related long-lived assets at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows. No additional impairments of the related long-lived assets were recorded as a result of these analyses. Management has determined that the current lives of its long-lived assets are appropriate. Management has determined that there were no other indicators of impairment that would cause the carrying values related to intangible assets with definite lives to exceed their expected future cash flows at February 28, 2019. Additionally, no impairment charges were recorded related to definite-lived intangible assets for the years ended February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017.

Approximately 46% ($34,662) of the carrying value of the Company's indefinite lived tradenames are at risk of impairment and sensitive to changes and assumptions as of February 28, 2019. There can be no assurance that our estimates and assumptions made for purposes of impairment testing as of February 28, 2019 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. Reduced demand for our existing product offerings, less than anticipated results for the holiday season, lack of acceptance of our new products, elimination of additional SKU's, the inability to successfully develop our brands, or unfavorable changes in assumptions used in the discounted cash flow model such as discount rates, royalty rates or projected long-term growth rates could result in additional impairment charges in the future.

During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a third party in which Voxx acquired a patent portfolio relating to rear seat entertainment (see Note 15). In consideration of this patent purchase, Voxx previously advanced $2,600 in connection with this matter and the patents are recorded within Intangible assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company performed a valuation of these intangible assets during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, concluding that the value of the patents approximated the amount paid for these assets.

The weighted-average remaining amortization period for amortizing intangibles as of February 28, 2019 is approximately 3 years. The Company expenses the renewal costs of patents as incurred. The weighted-average period before the renewal of our patents is approximately 3 years.

Amortization expense for intangible assets amounted to $6,984, $6,516 and $6,479 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.  At February 28, 2019, the estimated aggregate amortization expense for all amortizable intangibles for each of the succeeding five fiscal years is as follows:

Fiscal Year	Amount
2020	$	6,931
2021	6,724
2022	6,596
2023	5,650

l)Sales Incentives

67

The Company offers sales incentives to its customers in the form of (1) co-operative advertising allowances; (2) market development funds; (3) volume incentive rebates; and (4) other trade allowances.  The Company accounts for sales incentives in accordance with ASC 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606").  These sales incentives represent variable consideration provided to customers. We utilize the most likely amount consistently to estimate the effect of uncertainty on the amount of variable consideration to which we would be entitled. The most likely amount method considers the single most likely amount from a range of possible consideration amounts. The most likely amounts are based upon the contractual terms of the incentives and historical experience with each customer. Except for other trade allowances, all sales incentives require the customer to purchase the Company's products during a specified period of time. All sales incentives require customers to claim the sales incentive within a certain time period (referred to as the "claim period") and claims are settled either by the customer claiming a deduction against an outstanding account receivable or by the customer requesting a cash payout.  All costs associated with sales incentives are classified as a reduction of net sales. The following is a summary of the various sales incentive programs:

Co-operative advertising allowances are offered to customers as reimbursement towards their costs for print or media advertising in which the Company’s product is featured on its own or in conjunction with other companies' products. The amount offered is either a fixed amount or is based upon a fixed percentage of sales revenue or a fixed amount per unit sold to the customer during a specified time period.

Market development funds are offered to customers in connection with new product launches or entrance into new markets. The amount offered for new product launches is based upon a fixed amount, or percentage of sales revenue to the customer or a fixed amount per unit sold to the customer during a specified time period.

Volume incentive rebates offered to customers require minimum quantities of product to be purchased during a specified period of time. The amount offered is either based upon a fixed percentage of sales revenue to the customer or a fixed amount per unit sold to the customer. The Company makes an estimate of the ultimate amount of the rebate their customers will earn based upon past history with the customers and other facts and circumstances. The Company has the ability to estimate these volume incentive rebates, as the period of time for a particular rebate to be claimed is relatively short.  Any changes in the estimated amount of volume incentive rebates are recognized immediately using a cumulative catch-up adjustment. The Company accrues the cost of co-operative advertising allowances, volume incentive rebates and market development funds at the latter of when the customer purchases our products or when the sales incentive is offered to the customer.

Unearned sales incentives are volume incentive rebates where the customer did not purchase the required minimum quantities of product during the specified time. Volume incentive rebates are reversed into income in the period when the customer did not reach the required minimum purchases of product during the specified time. Unclaimed sales incentives are sales incentives earned by the customer, but the customer has not claimed payment within the claim period (period after program has ended). Unclaimed sales incentives are investigated in a timely manner after the end of the program and reversed if deemed appropriate. The Company believes the reversal of earned but unclaimed sales incentives upon the expiration of the claim period is a systematic, rational, consistent and conservative method of reversing unclaimed sales incentives.

Other trade allowances are additional sales incentives the Company provides to customers subsequent to the related revenue being recognized. The Company records the provision for these additional sales incentives at the latter of when the sales incentive is offered or when the related revenue is recognized. Such additional sales incentives are based upon a fixed percentage of the selling price to the customer, a fixed amount per unit, or a lump-sum amount.

The accrual balance for sales incentives at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 was $13,574 and $14,020, respectively.  Although the Company makes its best estimate of its sales incentive liability, many factors, including significant unanticipated changes in the purchasing volume of its customers and the lack of claims made by customers, could have a significant impact on the sales incentives liability and reported operating results.

A summary of the activity with respect to accrued sales incentives is provided below:

68

	Year Ended			Year Ended			Year Ended
	February 28, 2019			February 28, 2018			February 28, 2017
Opening balance	$	14,020		$	13,154		$	12,439
Accruals	37,272			42,722			36,413
Payments and credits	(37,516		)	(41,811		)	(35,590		)
Reversals for unearned sales incentives	(202		)	(45		)	(108		)
Ending balance	$	13,574		$	14,020		$	13,154

The majority of the reversals of previously established sales incentive liabilities pertain to sales recorded in prior periods.

m)Advertising

Excluding co-operative advertising, the Company expensed the cost of advertising, as incurred, of $5,417, $11,753 and $8,597 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

n)Research and Development

Expenditures for research and development are charged to expense as incurred. Such expenditures amounted to $9,169, $10,954 and $13,202 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively, net of customer reimbursement, of $375, $106 and $0, respectively, and are included within Engineering and Technical Support expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. Reimbursements from OEM customers for development services are reflected as a reduction of research and development expense because the performance of contract development services is not central to the Company's operations.

o)Product Warranties and Product Repair Costs

The Company generally warranties its products against certain manufacturing and other defects. This warranty does not provide a service beyond assuring that the products comply with agreed-upon specifications and is not sold separately. The Company provides warranties for all of its products ranging primarily from 30 days to three years. The Company also provides limited lifetime warranties for certain products, which limit the end user's remedy to the repair or replacement of the defective product during its lifetime, as well as for certain vehicle security products for the life of the vehicle for the original owner. Warranty expenses are accrued at the time the related revenue is recognized, based on the Company's estimated cost to repair expected product returns for warranty matters. This liability is based primarily on historical experiences of actual warranty claims as well as current information on repair costs and contract terms with certain manufacturers. The warranty liability of $3,090 and $4,261 is recorded in Accrued Expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. In addition, the Company records a reserve for product repair costs which is based upon the quantities of defective inventory on hand and an estimate of the cost to repair such defective inventory. The reserve for product repair costs of $1,379 and $1,972 is recorded as a reduction to inventory in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. Warranty claims and product repair costs expense relating to continuing operations for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 were $6,091, $7,428 and $5,843, respectively.

Changes in the Company's accrued product warranties and product repair costs are as follows:

69

	Year Ended			Year Ended			Year Ended
	February 28, 2019			February 28, 2018			February 28, 2017
Beginning balance	$	6,233		$	5,608		$	7,608
Liabilities acquired during acquisitions	—			500			—
Accrual for warranties issued during the year and repair cost	6,091			7,428			5,843
Balances transferred (a)	(832		)	—			—
Warranty claims settled during the year	(7,023		)	(7,303		)	(7,843		)
Ending balance	$	4,469		$	6,233		$	5,608

(a) In conjunction with the implementation of ASC Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (see Note 1(g)), the Company recorded a refund liability, representing the amount of consideration received for products sold that the Company expects to refund to customers, as well as a corresponding return asset that reflects the Company's right to receive goods back from customers. The return asset is calculated as the carrying amount of goods at the time of sale, less any expected costs to recover the goods and any expected reduction in value and is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at February 28, 2019. The balance above represents amounts that would reduce the value of inventory returned to the Company and has been reclassified to the return asset in order to properly reflect the value of the inventory the Company expects to receive back from customers.

p)Foreign Currency

Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries located outside the United States whose cash flows are primarily in local currencies have been translated at rates of exchange at the end of the period or historical exchange rates, as appropriate in accordance with ASC 830, "Foreign Currency Matters" ("ASC 830"). Revenues and expenses have been translated at the weighted-average rates of exchange in effect during the period.  Gains and losses resulting from translation are recorded in the cumulative foreign currency translation account in Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income. For the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the Company recorded total net foreign currency transaction gains (losses) in the amount of $220, $(8,769) and $(509), respectively. Included within the losses recorded for the year ended February 28, 2018 is the loss on forward contracts totaling $(6,618) incurred in conjunction with the sale of Hirschmann (see Note 2).

The Company has a subsidiary in Venezuela. Venezuela is currently experiencing significant political and civil unrest and economic instability and has been troubled with various foreign currency and price controls. The country has experienced high rates of inflation over the last several years. The President of Venezuela has the authority to legislate certain areas by decree, which allows the government to nationalize certain industries or expropriate certain companies and property. These factors have had a negative impact on our business and financial condition. On March 1, 2010, the Company transitioned to hyper-inflationary accounting for Venezuela in accordance with the guidelines in ASC 830, "Foreign Currency." A hyper-inflationary economy designation occurs when a country has experienced cumulative inflation of approximately 100 percent or more over a 3-year period.  The hyper-inflationary designation requires the local subsidiary in Venezuela to record all transactions as if they were denominated in U.S. dollars.  

Since January 2014, the Venezuelan government has created multiple alternative exchange rates designated to be used for the purchase of goods and services deemed non-essential. In March 2016, the government re-named its Marginal Currency System the DICOM exchange rate, which the Venezuelan government reported would be allowed to float to meet market needs. On August 20, 2018, the government further devalued the Bolivar Fuerte in an attempt to address continuing hyperinflation, also renaming it the Sovereign Bolivar. As of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, the Bolivars to U.S. dollar exchange rate was approximately 3,290 and 35,280, respectively. The Company evaluated all of the facts and circumstances surrounding its Venezuelan operations and determined that as of February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the DICOM/Sovereign Bolivar rate was the appropriate rate to use for remeasuring the subsidiary’s financial statements. For

70

the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, total net currency exchange losses of $6, $148 of $8 were recorded, respectively, related to Venezuela. All currency exchange gains and losses are included in Other Income (Expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

The Company holds certain long-lived assets in Venezuela, which includes an office location the subsidiary uses for its local personnel, as its automotive operations are currently suspended, as well as other rental properties. All of these properties are held for investment purposes as of February 28, 2019. During the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company made an assessment of the recoverability of these properties as a result of the country's continued economic deterioration, which included the significant currency devaluation in August of 2018. The Company estimated the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be received from these properties. The estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows considered the Company’s financial condition and its intent and ability to retain its investments for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of the carrying value. The future undiscounted cash flows did not exceed the net carrying value for the long-lived assets. The estimated fair value of the properties, which also considered the current conditions of the economy in Venezuela, the volatility of the real estate market, and the significant political unrest, resulted in a full non-cash impairment charge of $3,473 for the year ended February 28, 2019, which wrote off the remaining balance of the Company's property, plant, and equipment in Venezuela. The non-cash impairment charge is included in Other Income (Expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

q)Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, we consider all positive and negative evidence including the results of recent operations, scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, future taxable income and tax planning strategies. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled (see Note 8). The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Uncertain Tax Positions

The Company adopted guidance included in ASC 740 "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740") as it relates to uncertain tax positions.  The guidance addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements.  Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only 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 position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements.

Tax interest and penalties

The Company classifies interest and penalties associated with income taxes as a component of Income Tax Expense (Benefit) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

r)Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share from continuing operations, net of non-controlling interest, is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share from continuing operations reflects the potential dilution that would occur if common stock equivalent securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

71

There are no reconciling items which impact the numerator of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share.  A reconciliation between the denominator of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share is as follows:

	Year Ended	Year Ended	Year Ended
	February 28, 2019	February 28, 2018	February 28, 2017
Weighted-average common shares outstanding (basic)	24,355,791	24,290,563	24,160,324
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options, warrants and restricted stock	—	256,683	—
Weighted-average common and potential common shares outstanding (diluted)	24,355,791	24,547,246	24,160,324

Restricted stock, stock options and warrants totaling 618,155, 534,327 and 237,930 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively, were not included in the net (loss) income per common share calculation because the exercise price of these options and warrants was greater than the average market price of the Company's common stock during these periods, or the inclusion of these components would have been anti-dilutive.

s)Other (Expense) Income

Other (expense) income is comprised of the following:

	Year Ended			Year Ended			Year Ended
	February 28, 2019			February 28, 2018			February 28, 2017
Foreign currency gain (loss)	$	220		$	(8,769	)	$	(509	)
Interest income	994			210			137
Rental income	517			553			646
Miscellaneous	(1,154		)	416			(728		)
Total other, net	$	577		$	(7,590	)	$	(454	)

Interest income for the year ended February 28, 2019 includes interest earned from money market investments, which the Company increased following the sale of Hirschmann in the second quarter of Fiscal 2018. Included within the foreign currency loss for the year ended February 28, 2018 is a loss on forward contracts totaling $(6,618) incurred in conjunction with the sale of Hirschmann (see Note 2).

t)Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 360 whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to their estimated fair market value. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. See Note 1(p) for the discussion of the impairment of long-lived assets held in Venezuela for the year ended February 28, 2019. There were no impairments of long-lived assets recorded during the years ended February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017.

u)Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

72

The Company has a stock-based compensation plan under which employees and non-employee directors may be granted incentive stock options ("ISO's") and non-qualified stock options ("NQSO's") to purchase shares of Class A common stock. Under the plan, the exercise price of the ISO's granted to a ten percent stockholder cannot be less than 110% of the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock or greater than 110% of the market value of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of all other Options and Stock Appreciation Right ("SAR") awards may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant. If an option or SAR is granted pursuant to an assumption of, or substitution for, another option or SAR pursuant to a Corporate Transaction, and in a manner consistent with Section 409A of the Code, the exercise or strike price may be less than 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant. The plan permits for options to be exercised at various intervals as determined by the Board of Directors. However, the maximum expiration period is ten years from date of grant. The vesting requirements are determined by the Board of Directors at the time of grant.  Exercised options are issued from authorized Class A common stock.  As of February 28, 2019, approximately 1,113,000 shares were available for future grants under the terms of these plans.

Options are measured at the fair value of the award at the date of grant and are recognized as an expense over the requisite service period. Compensation expense related to stock-based awards with vesting terms are amortized using the straight-line attribution method.  

The Company granted 125,000 options in October 2014, which vested on October 16, 2015, had an exercise price equal to $7.76, $0.25 above the sales price of the Company’s stock on the day prior to the date of grant, a contractual term of 3.0 years and a grant date fair value of $2.78 per share determined based upon a Black-Scholes valuation model. In addition, the Company issued 15,000 warrants in October 2014 to purchase the Company’s common stock with the same terms as those of the options above as consideration for future legal and professional services. All unexercised options and warrants from this grant expired on October 16, 2017.

There were no stock options granted during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018, or February 28, 2017.

During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 there were no stock-based compensation costs or professional fees recorded by the Company and the Company had no unrecognized compensation costs at February 28, 2019 related to stock options and warrants.

Information regarding the Company's stock options and warrants are summarized below:

	Number of Shares		Weighted- Average Exercise Price
Outstanding and exercisable at February 28, 2017	116,250		$	7.76
Granted	—		—
Exercised	(38,750	)	7.76
Forfeited/expired	(77,500	)	7.76
Outstanding and exercisable at February 28, 2018	—		—

A restricted stock award is an award of common stock that is subject to certain restrictions during a specified period. Restricted stock awards are independent of option grants and are subject to forfeiture if employment terminates for a reason other than death, disability or retirement, prior to the release of the restrictions. Shares under restricted stock grants are not issued to the grantees before they vest. In Fiscal 2014, the Company established the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") (see Note 10(a)). During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, an additional 188,245, 74,156, and 165,619 shares of restricted stock were granted under the SERP, respectively. These shares were granted based on certain performance criteria and vest on the later of three years from the date of grant, or the grantee reaching the age of 65 years. The shares will also vest upon termination of the grantee's employment by the Company without

73

cause, provided that the grantee, at the time of termination, has been employed by the Company for at least 10 years, or as a result of the sale of all of the issued and outstanding stock, or all, or substantially all, of the assets of the subsidiary of which the grantee serves as CEO and/or President. When vested shares are issued to the grantee, the awards will be settled in shares or in cash, at the Company's sole option. The grantees cannot transfer the rights to receive shares before the restricted shares vest. There are no market conditions inherent in the award, only an employee performance requirement, and the service requirement that the respective employee continues employment with the Company through the vesting date. The Company expenses the cost of the restricted stock awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of each employee. For these purposes, the fair market value of the restricted stock awards, $5.50, $6.52, and $2.69 for Fiscal 2019, Fiscal 2018, and Fiscal 2017, respectively, were determined based on the mean of the high and low price of the Company's common stock on the grant dates.

In conjunction with the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017 (see Note 2), all restricted shares granted to the CEO and President of Hirschmann, totaling 72,300 shares immediately vested in accordance with the SERP and were settled in cash in the amount of $582. The remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to this individual's restricted stock awards was recognized as a reduction of the gain on sale of discontinued operations in the amount of $373.

The following table summarizes the Company's restricted stock activity:

	Number of shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding at February 29, 2016	271,824		$	9.61
Granted	165,619		2.69
Forfeited	—		—
Outstanding at February 28, 2017	437,443		$	6.99
Granted	74,156		6.52
Vested and settled	(72,300	)	5.98
Forfeited	—		—
Outstanding at February 28, 2018	439,299		$	7.08
Granted	188,245		5.50
Vested and settled	—		—
Forfeited	—		—
Outstanding at February 28, 2019	627,544		$	6.60
Vested and unissued at February 28, 2019	156,737		$	9.96

During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 the Company recorded $551, $502 and $669, respectively, in stock-based compensation related to restricted stock awards for continuing operations. As of February 28, 2019, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock awards was approximately $1,526 and will be recognized over the requisite service period of each employee.

(a) Pursuant to ASU 2016-01, adopted by the Company beginning on March 1, 2018 (see Note 1(f)), changes in fair value of the Company's investments in equity securities are recorded in earnings.

In the above table, all reclassifications of other comprehensive income (loss) for the year ended February 28, 2018 for foreign currency translation, investments and pension plan adjustments are related to the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017 (see Note 2). Within reclassifications for derivatives designated in a hedging relationship, gains totaling $71 are related to cash flow hedge activity of discontinued operations for the year ended February 28, 2018, and $384 is related to the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017. Within other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications for derivatives designated in a hedging relationship, $(501) is related to cash flow hedge activity of discontinued operations for the year ended February 28, 2018.

During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the Company recorded tax related to unrealized losses on investments of $0, pension plan adjustments of $21, $0 and $(106), respectively and derivatives designated in a hedging relationship of $(152), $(645) and $(97), respectively.

The other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassification of $(3,195), $18,065, $(3,194), respectively, includes the remeasurement of intercompany transactions of a long term investment nature of $(1,064), $12,488 and $(2,320), respectively, with certain subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, and $(2,131), $5,577 and $(874), respectively, from translating the financial statements of the Company's non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries into our reporting currency, which is the U.S. dollar. Intercompany loans and transactions that are of a long-term investment nature are remeasured and resulting gains and losses shall be reported in the same manner as translation adjustments. Foreign currency translation losses reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) of $10,739 for the year ended February 28, 2018 included $9,911 due to the settlement of a Euro-based loan and the recognition of the cumulative translation adjustment

75

of $828 due to the sale of Hirschmann. Within foreign exchange losses in other comprehensive (loss) income for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the Company recorded total gains (losses) of $(2,876), $17,559, and $(3,200), respectively, related to the Euro; $(240), $250, and $176, respectively, related to the Canadian Dollar; $(18), $71 and $(142), respectively, for the Mexican Peso, as well as $(61), $185 and $(28), respectively, for various other currencies. These adjustments were caused by the strengthening/(weakening) of the U.S. Dollar against the Euro, Canadian Dollar and the Mexican Peso between 2% and 7% in Fiscal 2019, (13)% and (3)% in Fiscal 2018, and (2)% and 10% in Fiscal 2017.

w)New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. This amendment will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10 “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases” and ASU No. 2018-11 “Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements" in July 2018, ASU No. 2018-20 "Leases (Topic 842) - Narrow Scope Improvements for Lessors" in December 2018, and ASU 2019-01 "Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements" in March 2019. ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-20, and ASU 2019-01 provide certain amendments that affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2016-02. ASU 2018-11 allows all entities adopting ASU 2016-02 to choose an additional (and optional) transition method of adoption, under which an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company will adopt this guidance beginning with its first quarter ended May 31, 2019 using the modified retrospective method without the recasting of comparative periods' financial information, as permitted by the transition guidance.

The Company established a task force, comprised of multiple functional groups inside the Company, and is finalizing its implementation efforts, including final review of lease arrangements, completion of its system implementation, and updating its processes in preparation for the adoption of the new standard. Based on the preliminary work completed, the Company is considering the potential implications of the new standard in determining the discount rate to be used in valuing new and existing leases. The Company will elect the package of practical expedients, allowing no reassessment under the new standard of prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial indirect costs, and will not elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements, the latter not being applicable to the Company. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” The standard significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren’t measured at fair value through net income. The standard will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. For available-for-sale debt securities, entities will be required to record allowances rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the other-than-temporary impairment model. It also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. The amendment will affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. The amendments should be applied on either a prospective transition or modified-retrospective approach depending on the subtopic. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

76

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." Under the new guidance, if a reporting unit's carrying value amount exceeds its fair value, an entity will record an impairment charge based on that difference. The impairment charge will be limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The standard eliminates today's requirement to calculate goodwill impairment using Step 2, which calculates an impairment charge by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount. The standard does not change the guidance on completing Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairments tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities," which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better align risk management activities in financial statements and make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance in current GAAP. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for any interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this new pronouncement on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income." ASU 2018-02 was issued to address the income tax accounting treatment of the stranded tax effects within other comprehensive income due to the prohibition of backward tracing due to an income tax rate change that was initially recorded in other comprehensive income due to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") on December 22, 2017, which changed the Company's income tax rate from 35% to 21%. The amendments to the ASU changed US GAAP whereby an entity may elect to reclassify the stranded tax effect from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The amendments of the ASU may be adopted in total or in part using a full retrospective or modified retrospective method. The amendments of the ASU are effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is assessing the effect of ASU 2018-02 on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement ('Topic 820'): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement." The ASU modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, by removing certain disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy, modifying existing disclosure requirements related to measurement uncertainty and adding new disclosure requirements, such as disclosing the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and disclosing the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, "Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans."  ASU 2018-14 removes certain disclosures that are not considered cost beneficial, clarifies certain required disclosures and added additional disclosures. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The amendments in ASU 2018-14 must be applied on a retrospective basis.  The Company is currently assessing the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-14 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17: "Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities." This ASU requires entities to consider indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis, rather than as the equivalent of a direct interest in its entirety when determining whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods therein, with early adoption

77

permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-17 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-18, "Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606." The ASU clarifies that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for as revenue when the collaborative arrangement participant is a customer in the context of a unit of account and precludes recognizing as revenue consideration received from a collaborative arrangement participant if the participant is not a customer. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-18 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

2)          Acquisitions and Dispositions

Acquisitions:

Rosen Electronics LLC

On April 18, 2017, Voxx acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Rosen Electronics LLC for cash consideration of $1,814. In addition, the Company agreed to pay a 2% fee related to future net sales of Rosen products for three years, which resulted in a contingent consideration of $530.

Rosen's results of operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purpose of this acquisition was to increase the Company's market share and strengthen its intellectual property related to the rear seat entertainment market.

The following summarizes the allocation of the purchase price for the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:

	April 18, 2017 (as originally reported)		Measurement Period Adjustments			April 18, 2017 (as adjusted)
Assets acquired:
Inventory	$	2,314	(870		)	1,444
Goodwill	10		870			880
Intangible assets including trademarks and customer relationships	520		—			520
Total assets acquired	$	2,844	$	—		$	2,844
Liabilities assumed:
Warranty accrual	500		—			500
Total	$	500	$	—		$	500
Total purchase price	$	2,344	$	—		$	2,344

Dispositions:

Hirschmann Car Communication GmbH

On August 31, 2017 (the "Closing Date"), the Company completed its sale of Hirschmann Car Communication GmbH and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Hirschmann”) to a subsidiary of TE Connectivity Ltd ("TE"). The consideration received by the Company was €148,500. The purchase price, at the exchange rate as of the close of business on the Closing Date approximated $177,000 and is subject to adjustment based upon the final working capital. VOXX International (Germany) GmbH, the Company's German wholly-owned subsidiary, was the selling entity in this transaction.

78

The Hirschmann subsidiary group, which was included within the Automotive segment, qualified to be presented as a discontinued operation in accordance with ASC 205-20 beginning in the Company's second quarter ending August 31, 2017. Voxx has not had any continuing involvement in the Hirschmann business subsequent to the Closing Date. Hirschmann and TE are not related parties of the Company subsequent to the deconsolidation of Hirschmann.

In order to hedge the fluctuation in the exchange rate before closing, the Company entered into forward contracts totaling €148,500, which could be settled on dates ranging from August 31, 2017 through September 6, 2017. As the sale of Hirschmann closed on August 31, 2017, the Company settled all of the forward contracts on this date. The forward contracts were not designated for hedging and a total foreign currency loss of $(6,618) was recorded when the contracts were settled, within continuing operations for the year ended February 28, 2018.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the major financial lines constituting the results of operations for discontinued operations to the net income from discontinued operations, net of tax, presented separately in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income:

	Year ended February 28, 2018			Year ended February 28, 2017
Net sales	$	91,824		$	166,512
Cost of sales	63,610			109,027
Gross profit	28,214			57,485
Operating expenses:
Selling	2,778			5,097
General and administrative	14,699			28,309
Engineering and technical support	7,920			16,083
Total operating expenses	25,397			49,489
Operating income from discontinued operations	2,817			7,996
Other (expense) income:
Interest and bank charges (a)	(279		)	(383		)
Other, net	145			(126		)
Total other expense of discontinued operations, net	(134		)	(509		)
Gain on sale of discontinued operations before taxes	36,118			—
Total income from discontinued operations before taxes	38,801			7,487
Income tax expense on discontinued operations (b)	4,183			1,421
Income from discontinued operations, net of taxes	$	34,618		$	6,066
Income per share - basic	$	1.43		$	0.25
Income per share - diluted	$	1.41		$	0.25

(a) Includes an allocation of consolidated interest expense and interest expense directly related to debt assumed by the buyer. The allocation of consolidated interest expense was based upon the ratio of net assets of the discontinued operations to that of the Consolidated Company.

79

(b) The income tax expense on discontinued operations for the year ended February 28, 2018 was positively impacted by an income tax benefit related to the partial reversal of the Company’s valuation allowance as the Company utilized a significant portion of its tax attributes to offset the U.S. tax gain related to the sale of Hirschmann.

The following table presents supplemental cash flow information of the discontinued operations:

	Year ended February 28, 2018		Year ended February 28, 2017

3) Variable Interest Entities

A variable interest entity ("VIE") is an entity that either (i) has insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (ii) has equity investors who lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. Under ASC 810, an entity that holds a variable interest in a VIE and meets certain requirements would be considered to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and required to consolidate the VIE in its consolidated financial statements. In order to be considered the primary beneficiary of a VIE, an entity must hold a variable interest in the VIE and have both:

•the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE; and

•the right to receive benefits from, or the obligation to absorb losses of, the VIE that could be potentially significant to the VIE.

Effective September 1, 2015, Voxx acquired a majority voting interest in substantially all of the assets and certain specified liabilities of Eyelock, Inc. and Eyelock Corporation, a market leader of iris-based identity authentication solutions, through a newly-formed entity, Eyelock LLC. The Company has issued EyeLock LLC a promissory note for the purposes of repaying protective advances and funding working capital requirements of the company. The promissory note bears interest at 10% and was due on February 28, 2019. On March 19, 2019, this promissory note was amended and restated to allow EyeLock LLC to borrow up to a maximum of $49,000 and the due date was extended to August 31, 2019. The outstanding principal balance of this promissory note is convertible at the sole option of Voxx into units of EyeLock LLC. If Voxx chooses not to convert into equity, the outstanding loan principal of the amended and restated promissory note will be repaid at a multiple of 1.50 based on the repayment date. The agreement includes customary events of default and is collateralized by all of the property of EyeLock LLC.

We have determined that we hold a variable interest in EyeLock LLC as a result of:

•our majority voting interest and ownership of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of the entity; and

80

•the loan agreement with EyeLock LLC, which has a total outstanding balance of $44,937 as of February 28, 2019.

We concluded that we became the primary beneficiary of EyeLock LLC on September 1, 2015 in conjunction with the acquisition. This was the first date that we had the power to direct the activities of EyeLock LLC that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entity because we acquired a majority interest in substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of EyeLock Inc. and EyeLock Corporation on this date, as well as obtained a majority voting interest as a result of this transaction. Although we are considered to have control over EyeLock LLC under ASC 810, as a result of our majority ownership interest, the assets of EyeLock LLC can only be used to satisfy the obligations of EyeLock LLC. As a result of our majority ownership interest in the entity and our primary beneficiary conclusion, we consolidated EyeLock LLC in our consolidated financial statements beginning on September 1, 2015. Prior to September 1, 2015, EyeLock Inc. and EyeLock Corporation were not required to be consolidated in our consolidated financial statements, as we concluded that we were not the primary beneficiary of these entities prior to that time.

The Company has recorded receivables from vendors in the amount of $1,009 and $493 as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. Receivables from vendors primarily represent prepayments on product shipments and product reimbursements.

5) Equity Investment

The Company has a 50% non-controlling ownership interest in ASA Electronics, LLC and Subsidiary ("ASA"), which acts as a distributor of mobile electronics specifically designed for niche markets within the Automotive industry, including RV’s; buses; and commercial, heavy duty, agricultural, construction, powersport, and marine vehicles. ASC 810 requires the Company to evaluate non-consolidated entities periodically, and as circumstances change, to determine if an implied controlling interest exists. During Fiscal 2019, the Company evaluated this equity investment and concluded that ASA is not a variable interest entity.  ASA’s fiscal year end is November 30, 2018; however, the results of ASA as of and through February 28, 2019 have been recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

The Company's share of income from ASA for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 was $6,618, $7,178 and $6,797, respectively. In addition, the Company received cash distributions from ASA totaling $6,594, $7,247 and $6,820 during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

Undistributed earnings from equity investments amounted to $16,559 and $16,531 at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively.

Net sales transactions between the Company and ASA were $390, $315 and $611 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively. Accounts receivable balances from ASA were $71 and $65 as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively.

During the year ended February 28, 2019, the Company realigned certain businesses within its Consumer Accessories and Premium Audio segments to lower and contain overhead costs, as well as conducted an aggressive SKU rationalization program to streamline its consumer accessory product offerings, which resulted in total restructuring expenses of $4,588 for the year ended February 28, 2019. As of February 28, 2019, $3,883 of the Company's restructuring charges incurred were not yet settled and are included within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities. The accrued restructuring balance at February 28, 2019 consists primarily of employee severance, which is located within the employee compensation line item in the above table. These liabilities are expected to be settled during Fiscal 2020.

Included in royalties, advertising, and other in the table above are accrued environmental charges of $454 related to soil contamination at one of the Company's operating facilities in Germany that is in the process of being remediated at February 28, 2019. Charges for the year ended February 28, 2019 have been estimated based on assessments asserted by a local government authority and preliminary estimates provided by a third party engineering firm.

Through the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company had a call/put option agreement with certain employees of Voxx Germany, whereby these employees could acquire up to a maximum of 20% of the Company's stated share capital in Voxx Germany at a call price equal to the same proportion of the actual price paid by the Company for Voxx Germany. The put and call prices were fixed at €3,000 and €0, respectively, with the put subject only to downward adjustments for losses incurred by Voxx Germany. For each fiscal year, the employees also received an annual dividend equal to 20% of Voxx Germany's net after tax profits. Accordingly, the Company recognized compensation expense based on 20% of the after-tax net profits of Voxx Germany, subject to certain tax treatment adjustments as defined in the agreement, representing the annual dividend. During the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, the employees of Voxx Germany called the option, resulting in a total payment of $3,786, which was included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at February 28, 2018 within employee compensation in the table above. Compensation expense for annual dividends amounted to $285 and $405 for the years ended February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

a)Domestic Bank Obligations

The Company has a senior secured credit facility ("the Credit Facility") that provides for a revolving credit facility with committed availability of up to $140,000, which may be increased, at the option of the Company, up to a maximum of $175,000, and a term loan in the amount of $15,000. The Credit Facility also includes a $15,000 sublimit for letters of credit and a $15,000 sublimit for swingline loans. The availability under the revolving credit line within the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based on eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory and certain real estate, subject to reserves as determined by the lender, and is also limited by amounts outstanding under the Florida Mortgage (see Note 7(b)). In conjunction with the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017 (see Note 2), the Company paid down substantially all of the outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility, as well as the entire outstanding balance of the term loan, which is not renewable. As of February 28, 2019, there was no balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility. The remaining availability under the revolving credit line of the Credit Facility was $86,685 as of February 28, 2019.

All amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility will mature and become due on April 26, 2021; however, it is subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Company may prepay any amounts outstanding at any time, subject to payment of certain breakage and redeployment costs relating to LIBOR Rate Loans. The commitments under the Credit Facility may be irrevocably reduced at any time, without premium or penalty as set forth in the agreement.

Generally, the Company may designate specific borrowings under the Credit Facility as either Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans, except that swingline loans may only be designated as Base Rate Loans. Loans under the Credit Facility designated as LIBOR Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate equal to the then-applicable LIBOR Rate plus a range of 1.75% - 2.25%. Loans under the Credit Facility designated as Base Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate equal to the applicable margin for Base Rate Loans of 0.75% - 1.25%, as defined in the agreement. As of February 28, 2019, the weighted average interest rate on the Credit Facility was 6.25%.

The Credit Facility requires compliance with a financial covenant calculated as of the last day of each month consisting of a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Credit Facility also contains covenants, subject to defined carveouts, that limit the ability of the loan parties and certain of their subsidiaries which are not loan parties to, among other things: (i) incur additional indebtedness; (ii) incur liens; (iii) merge, consolidate or dispose of a substantial portion of their business; (iv) transfer or dispose of assets; (v) change their name, organizational identification number, state or province of organization or organizational identity; (vi) make any material change in their nature of business; (vii) prepay or otherwise acquire indebtedness; (viii) cause any change of control; (ix) make any restricted junior payment; (x) change their fiscal year or method of accounting; (xi) make advances, loans or investments; (xii) enter into or permit any transaction with an affiliate of any borrower or any of their subsidiaries; (xiii) use proceeds for certain items; (xiv) issue or sell any of their stock; (xv) consign or sell any of their inventory on certain terms. In addition, if excess availability under the Credit Facility were to fall below certain specified levels, as defined in the agreement, the lenders would have the right to assume dominion and control over the Company's cash. As of February 28, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants included within the Credit Facility.

84

The obligations under the loan documents are secured by a general lien on, and security interest in, substantially all of the assets of the borrowers and certain of the guarantors, including accounts receivable, equipment, real estate, general intangibles and inventory. The Company has guaranteed the obligations of the borrowers under the Credit Facility.

The Company has deferred financing costs related to the Credit Facility and a previous amendment and modification of the Credit Facility. These deferred financing costs are included in Long-term debt on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as a contra-liability balance and are amortized through Interest and bank charges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income over the five-year term of the Credit Facility. The Company amortized $791 during both of the years ended February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 and $789 during the year ended February 28, 2017.

Charges incurred on the unused portion of the Credit Facility and its predecessor revolving credit facility during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 totaled $519, $404 and $241, respectively, and are included within Interest and Bank Charges on the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

b)Florida Mortgage

On July 6, 2015, VOXX HQ LLC, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, closed on a $9,995 industrial development revenue tax exempt bond under a loan agreement in favor of the Orange County Industrial Development Authority (the “Authority”) to finance the construction of the Company's manufacturing facility and executive offices in Lake Nona, Florida (the “Construction Loan”).  Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. ("Wells Fargo") was the purchaser of the bond and U.S. Bank National Association is the trustee under an Indenture of Trust with the Authority. Voxx borrowed the proceeds of the bond purchase from the Authority during construction as a revolving loan, which converted to a permanent mortgage upon completion of the facility in January 2016 (the "Florida Mortgage"). The Company makes principal and interest payments to Wells Fargo, which began March 1, 2016 and will continue through March of 2026. The Florida Mortgage bears interest at 70% of 1-month LIBOR plus 1.54% (4.03% at February 28, 2019) and is secured by a first mortgage on the property, a collateral assignment of leases and rents and a guaranty by the Company. The Company is in compliance with the financial covenants of the Florida Mortgage, which are as defined in the Company’s Credit Facility with Wells Fargo dated April 26, 2016.

The Company incurred debt financing costs totaling approximately $332 as a result of obtaining the Florida Mortgage, which are recorded as deferred financing costs and included in Long-term debt as a contra-liability balance on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and are being amortized through Interest and bank charges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) over the ten-year term of the Florida Mortgage. The Company amortized $31 of these costs during each of the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018, and February 28, 2017.

On July 20, 2015, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement in order to hedge interest rate exposure related to the Florida Mortgage and pays a fixed rate of 3.48% under the swap agreement (see Note 1(e)).

c)Euro Asset-Based Lending Obligation

Foreign bank obligations include a Euro Asset-Based Lending ("ABL") credit facility, which has a credit limit of €8,000, for the Company's subsidiary, VOXX Germany, which expires on July 31, 2020. The rate of interest for the ABL is the three-month Euribor plus 2.3% (1.96% at February 28, 2019). As of February 28, 2019, the amount outstanding under this facility, which is payable on demand, does not exceed the credit limit.

d)Schwaiger Mortgage

In January 2012, the Company's Schwaiger subsidiary purchased a building, entering into a mortgage note payable. The mortgage note bears interest at 3.75% and will be fully paid by December 2019. 

85

e)    VOXX Germany Mortgage

Included in this balance is a mortgage on the land and building housing VOXX Germany's headquarters in Pulheim, Germany, which was entered into in January 2013. The mortgage bears interest at 2.85%, payable in twenty-six quarterly installments through September 2019.

The following is a maturity table for debt and bank obligations outstanding at February 28, 2019 for each of the following fiscal years:

The U.S. effects of foreign operations include differences in the statutory tax rate of the foreign countries as compared to the statutory tax rate in the U.S.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax reform commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”). Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, the effects of changes in tax rates and

87

laws are recognized in the period which the new legislation is enacted. The TCJA makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, including, but not limited to: (1) a reduction in the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%; (2) changed the rules related to uses and limitations of net operating loss carryforwards created in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017; (3) permits acceleration of expensing on certain qualified property; (4) created a new limitation on deductible interest expense to 30% of tax adjusted EBITDA through 2021 and then 30% of tax adjusted EBIT thereafter; (5) eliminated the corporate alternative minimum tax; (6) provided further limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation under IRC §162(m) for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 ; (7) required a one-time transition tax related to the transition of U.S. international tax from a worldwide tax system to a territorial tax system; and (8) made additional changes to the U.S. international tax rules including imposing a minimum tax on global intangible low taxed income (“GILTI”) and other base erosion anti-abuse provisions.

In response to the TCJA, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of TCJA. The purpose of SAB 118 was to address any uncertainty or diversity of view in applying ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes in the reporting period in which the TCJA was enacted. Additionally, SAB 118 allowed for a measurement period to finalize the impacts of the TCJA, not to extend beyond one year from the date of enactment.

In connection with the Company’s initial analysis of the impact of the TCJA during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2018, the Company recorded a provisional decrease in its deferred tax assets and liabilities of $4,706 related to the remeasurement of the deferred tax assets and liabilities at the reduced U.S. federal tax rate of 21%. The Company was subject to a one-time transition tax based on the total post-1986 earnings and profits which was principally offset by the Company's tax attributes.

The Company made a policy election to treat the income tax due on U.S. inclusion of the new GILTI provisions as a period expense when incurred.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those periods in which temporary differences become deductible and/or net operating loss carryforwards can be utilized. We consider the level of historical taxable income, scheduled reversal of temporary differences, tax planning strategies and projected future taxable income in determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted.

During Fiscal 2019, the Company maintained a valuation allowance against certain U.S. deferred tax assets including tax attributes with limited carryforward periods, capital loss attributes and certain deferred tax assets in foreign jurisdictions. The Company's valuation allowance increased by $6,164 during the year ended February 28, 2019. Any further increase or decrease in the valuation allowance could have a favorable or unfavorable impact on our income tax provision and net income in the period in which such determination is made.

Notwithstanding the U.S. taxation of the deemed repatriated foreign earnings as a result of the one-time transition tax, the Company intends to continue to invest these earnings indefinitely outside the U.S. If these future earnings are repatriated to the U.S., or if the Company determines that such earnings will be remitted in the foreseeable future, the Company may be required to accrue U.S. deferred taxes (if any) and applicable withholding taxes. It is not practicable to estimate the tax impact of the reversal of the outside basis difference, or the repatriation of cash due to the complexity of its hypothetical calculation.

The Company has U.S. federal net operating losses of $40,777, of which $17,703 expire in Fiscal 2035 through 2037 if not utilized, and $22,955 that have an indefinite carryforward period. These net operating loss carryforwards are available to offset 100% of future taxable income. The remaining $119 of U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards have an indefinite carryforward period, but are only available to offset 80% of future taxable income. The Company has capital loss carryforwards of approximately $14,904 which expire in 2024 and are only available to offset capital gain income. The Company has foreign tax credits of $3,804 which expire in tax years 2025 through 2028. The Company has research and development tax credits of $2,742, which expire in tax years 2035 through 2039. The Company has various foreign

89

net operating loss carryforwards, state net operating loss carryforwards, and state tax credits that expire in various years and amounts through tax year 2039.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, is as follows:

Balance at February 29, 2016	$	14,472
Additions based on tax positions taken in the current and prior years	3,147
Settlements	—
Decreases based on tax positions taken in the prior years	(6,470		)
Other	(305		)
Balance at February 28, 2017	$	10,844
Additions based on tax positions taken in the current and prior years	630
Settlements	—
Decreases based on tax positions taken in the prior years	(2,945		)
Other	578
Balance at February 28, 2018	$	9,107
Additions based on tax positions taken in the current and prior years	2,125
Settlements	—
Decreases based on tax positions taken in prior years	(1,923		)
Other	(227		)
Balance at February 28, 2019	$	9,082

Of the amounts reflected in the table above at February 28, 2019, $9,082, if recognized, would reduce our effective tax rate. If recognized, $7,959 of the unrecognized tax benefits are likely to attract a full valuation allowance, thereby offsetting the favorable impact to the effective tax rate. Our unrecognized tax benefit non-current consolidated balance sheet liability, including interest and penalties, is $1,332. The Company records accrued interest and penalties related to income tax matters in the provision for income taxes in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. For the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits were $(389), $(145) and $98, respectively. The balance as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 was $210 and $602, respectively. It is reasonably possible that unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by approximately $1,500 to $2,000 within the next 12 months.

The Company, or one of its subsidiaries, files its tax returns in the U.S. and certain state and foreign income tax jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations.  The earliest years' tax returns filed by the Company that are still subject to examination by the tax authorities in the major jurisdictions are as follows:

Jurisdiction	Tax Year
U.S.	2015
Netherlands	2015
Germany	2015

9) Capital Structure

The Company's capital structure is as follows:

90

			Shares Authorized		Shares Outstanding
Security	Par Value		February 28, 2019	February 28, 2018	February 28, 2019	February 28, 2018	Voting Rights per Share	Liquidation Rights
Preferred Stock	$	50.00	50,000	50,000	—	—	—	$50 per share
Series Preferred Stock	$	0.01	1,500,000	1,500,000	—	—	—
Class A Common Stock	$	0.01	60,000,000	60,000,000	21,938,100	21,938,100	one	Ratably with Class B
Class B Common Stock	$	0.01	10,000,000	10,000,000	2,260,954	2,260,954	ten	Ratably with Class A

The holders of Class A and Class B common stock are entitled to receive cash or property dividends declared by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors can declare cash dividends for Class A common stock in amounts equal to or greater than the cash dividends for Class B common stock. Dividends other than cash must be declared equally for both classes. Each share of Class B common stock may, at any time, be converted into one share of Class A common stock.

Stock held in treasury by the Company is accounted for using the cost method which treats stock held in treasury as a reduction to total stockholders' equity and amounted to 2,168,094 shares at both February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. The cost basis for subsequent sales of treasury shares is determined using an average cost method. During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the Company repurchased no shares. As of February 28, 2019, 1,383,271 shares of the Company's Class A common stock are authorized to be repurchased in the open market. In April 2019, the Company was authorized by the Board of Directors to increase the number of Class A Common Stock available for repurchase in the open market to 3,000,000.

10) Other Stock and Retirement Plans

a)Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

During Fiscal 2014, the Company established a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") to provide additional retirement income to its Chairman and select executive officers. Subject to certain performance criteria, service requirements and age restrictions, employees who participate in the SERP will receive restricted stock awards. The restricted stock awards vest on the later of three years from the date of grant, or the grantee reaching the age of 65 years (see Note 1(u)).

As of February 28, 2019, approximately 1,113,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock are reserved for issuance under the Company's Restricted and Stock Option Plans.

b)Profit Sharing Plans

The Company has established two non-contributory employee profit sharing plans for the benefit of its eligible employees in the United States and Canada. The plans are administered by trustees appointed by the Company. No discretionary contributions were made during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017. Contributions required by law to be made for eligible employees in Canada were not material for all periods presented. 

c)401(k) Plans

The VOXX International Corporation 401(k) plan is for all eligible domestic employees. The Company matches a portion of the participant's contributions after three months of service under a predetermined formula based on the participant's contribution level. Shares of the Company's Common Stock are not an investment option in the 401(k) plan and the Company does not use such shares to match participants' contributions. During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the Company contributed, net of forfeitures, $378, $388 and $408 to the 401(k) Plan.

91

d)Cash Bonus Profit Sharing Plan

The Company has a Cash Bonus Profit Sharing Plan that allows it to make profit sharing contributions for the benefit of eligible employees, for any fiscal year based on a pre-determined formula on the Company's pre-tax profits. The size of the contribution is dependent upon the performance of the Company. A participant’s share of the contribution is determined pursuant to the participant’s eligible wages for the fiscal year as a percentage of total eligible wages for all participants. There were no contributions made to the plan for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017.

e)Deferred Compensation Plan

A Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) was adopted by the Company in 1999 for Vice Presidents and above. The Plan is intended to provide certain executives with supplemental retirement benefits as well as to permit the deferral of more of their compensation than they are permitted to defer under the Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plans. The Plan provides for a matching contribution equal to 25% of the employee deferrals up to $20. In Fiscal 2008, the Company suspended all matching contributions to contain operating expenses. The matching contributions have remained suspended for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017. The Plan is not intended to be a qualified plan under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. All compensation deferred under the Plan is held by the Company in an investment trust which is considered an asset of the Company.  The Company has the option of amending or terminating the Plan at any time.

The investments, which amounted to $2,858 and $3,620 at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively, are classified as long-term marketable equity securities and are included in investment securities on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and a corresponding liability is recorded, with $250 recorded in Accrued expenses, and the balance in deferred compensation which is classified as a long-term liability. Unrealized gains and losses on the marketable securities and corresponding deferred compensation liability net to zero in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

11) Lease Obligations

At February 28, 2019, the Company was obligated under non-cancellable operating leases for equipment and warehouse facilities related to continuing operations for minimum annual rental payments for each of the succeeding fiscal years:

	Operating Leases
2020	$	946
2021	604
2022	391
2023	154
2024	10
Thereafter	—
Total minimum lease payments	$	2,105

Rental expense for the above-mentioned operating lease agreements and other rental agreements on a month-to-month basis was $883, $1,163 and $1,898 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

The Company has no related party leases as of February 28, 2019.

The Company has capital leases with a total lease liability of $958 at February 28, 2019. These leases have maturities through Fiscal 2022.

12) Financial Instruments

92

a)Off-Balance Sheet Risk

Commercial letters of credit are issued by the Company during the ordinary course of business through major domestic banks as requested by certain suppliers. The Company also issues standby letters of credit principally to secure certain bank obligations and insurance policies. The Company had no open commercial letters of credit at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018. Standby letters of credit amounted to $892 and $1,161 at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively.  The terms of these letters of credit are all less than one year. No material loss is anticipated due to nonperformance by the counter parties to these agreements. The fair value of the standby letters of credit is estimated to be the same as the contract values based on the short-term nature of the fee arrangements with the issuing banks.

At February 28, 2019, the Company had unconditional purchase obligations for inventory commitments of $56,900. These obligations are not recorded in the consolidated financial statements until commitments are fulfilled and such obligations are subject to change based on negotiations with manufacturers.

b)Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of trade receivables. The Company's customers are located principally in the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia Pacific and consist of, among others, distributors, mass merchandisers, warehouse clubs, major automobile manufacturers, and independent retailers.  The Company generally grants credit based upon analyses of customers' financial conditions and previously established buying and payment patterns. For certain customers, the Company establishes collateral rights in accounts receivable and inventory and obtains personal guarantees from certain customers based upon management's credit evaluation. Certain customers in Europe and Latin America have credit insurance equaling their credit limits.

At February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, the Company's five largest customer balances accounted for approximately 24% and 22% of accounts receivable, respectively.  No customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales from continuing operations during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 or February 28, 2017. The Company's five largest customers represented 25%, 26%, and 28% of net sales from continuing operations during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018, and February 28, 2017, respectively.

A portion of the Company's customer base may be susceptible to downturns in the retail economy, particularly in the consumer electronics industry. Additionally, customers specializing in certain automotive sound, security and accessory products may be impacted by fluctuations in automotive sales.

13) Financial and Product Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations

Segment

The Company operates in three distinct segments based upon our products and our internal organizational structure. The three operating segments, which are also the Company's reportable segments, are Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories.

Our Automotive segment designs, manufactures, distributesand markets rear-seat entertainment devices, satellite radio products, automotive security, vehicle access systems, remote start systems, mobile multimedia devices, aftermarket/OE-styled radios, car link-smartphone telematics application, driver distraction products, collision avoidance systems and location-based services.

Our Premium Audio segment designs, manufactures, distributesand markets home theater systems, high-end loudspeakers, outdoor speakers, business music systems, cinema speakers, flat panel speakers, Bluetooth speakers, soundbars, headphones and DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) compatible devices.

93

Our Consumer Accessories segment designs, markets and distributes remote controls; wireless and Bluetooth speakers; wired and wireless headphones and ear buds; and karaoke products; action cameras; iris identification and biometric security related products; public safety solutions; infant/nursery products; activity tracking bands; healthcare wearables; smart-home products; security and monitoring products, infant and nursery products; personal sound amplifiers; and A/V connectivity, portable/home charging, reception and digital consumer products.

Each operating segment is individually reviewed and evaluated by our Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), who allocates resources and assesses performance of each segment individually. The Company's Chief Executive Officer has been identified as the CODM. The CODM evaluates performance and allocates resources based upon a number of factors, the primary profit measure being income before income taxesof each segment. Certain costs and royalty income are not allocated to the segments and are reported as Corporate/Eliminations. Costs not allocated to the segments include professional fees, public relations costs, acquisition costs and costs associated with executive and corporate management departments including salaries, benefits, depreciation, rent and insurance.

The segments share many common resources, infrastructures and assets in the normal course of business. Thus, the Company does not report assets or capital expenditures by segment to the CODM.

The accounting principles applied at the consolidated financial statement level are generally the same as those applied at the operating segment level and there are no material intersegment sales. The segments are allocated interest expense, based upon a pre-determined formula, which utilizes a percentage of each operating segment's intercompany balance, which is offset in corporate/eliminations.

Segment data from continuing operations for each of the Company's segments are presented below:

The Company has no contract asset or contract liability balances at February 28, 2019. No performance obligation related amounts were deferred as of February 28, 2019.

15) Contingencies

The Company is currently, and has in the past, been a party to various routine legal proceedings incident to the ordinary course of business. If management determines, based on the underlying facts and circumstances, that it is probable a loss will result from a litigation contingency and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the estimated loss is accrued for. The Company does not believe that any of its current outstanding litigation matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements, individually or in the aggregate.

The products the Company sells are continually changing as a result of improved technology.  As a result, although the Company and its suppliers attempt to avoid infringing known proprietary rights, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims for alleged infringement by patent, trademark or other intellectual property owners.  Any claims relating to the infringement of third-party proprietary rights, even if not meritorious, could result in costly litigation, divert management’s attention and resources, or require the Company to either enter into royalty or license agreements which are not advantageous to the Company, or pay material amounts of damages.

On December 19, 2018, Johnson Safety Inc. (“JSI”) and Voxx International Corporation and certain subsidiaries (collectively, “Voxx”) entered into a Settlement and License Agreement (with an effective date of March 1, 2018) in which JSI sold, transferred and assigned to Voxx its patent portfolio relating to rear seat entertainment. In addition, Voxx granted JSI a royalty-free non-exclusive license, without the right to sub-license, in and to the JSI patent portfolio sold and transferred to Voxx.  In consideration of the foregoing patent purchase, Voxx previously advanced $2,600 in connection with this matter. These patents are recorded within Intangible Assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company performed a valuation of these intangible assets during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, concluding that the value of the patents approximated the amount paid for these assets.

17) Subsequent Events

Segment Information

Effective in the first quarter of Fiscal 2020, the Company revised its reportable segments to better reflect the way the Company now manages its business. As a result of the Company’s efforts to re-align its businesses, streamline operations, better leverage resources, management's analysis of its business results and the decisions on resource allocations to its business segments has also changed. These changes necessitated a change in the Company's segment reporting to align with management's operational view. To reflect management's revised perspective, effective on March 1, 2019, the Company will classify its operations in the following three reportable segments: Automotive Electronics, Consumer Electronics, and Biometrics. The Consumer Electronics segment will be comprised of the Company's former Consumer Accessories and Premium Audio segments, with the exception of EyeLock LLC. The Biometrics segment consists of the Company's majority owned subsidiary, EyeLock LLC, which was previously included in the Consumer Accessories segment. This new segment was created in order to provide greater visibility regarding the operational and financial performance of EyeLock LLC and of the Company as a whole. The Company’s Automotive Electronics segment will remain unchanged.

Authorization of Stock Repurchase

In May 1999 and July 2006, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 1,563,000 and 2,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, respectively. At February 28, 2019, the remaining authorized share repurchase was 1,383,271 shares. In April 2019, the Company was authorized by the Board of Directors to increase the number of Class A Common Stock available for repurchase in the open market to 3,000,000.

360fly, Inc.

On January 23, 2019, the Company, as Collateral Agent for the senior secured lenders of 360fly, Inc., and for itself, provided a Notice of Maturity, Default and Acceleration to 360fly, Inc., indicating that: (i) all the unpaid principal and accrued interest owed under all the outstanding notes with the Company on this date became due as a result of uncured defaults in payment under the notes; and (ii) the Company, as Collateral Agent, would proceed with foreclosure of collateral, securing the notes, with a scheduled auction date of March 5, 2019. Notice of the auction was provided through public advertisement and online posting during the month of February 2019.

On March 5, 2019, Voxx, as Collateral Agent, was the only bidder at the auction with a credit bid of $1,000 and was awarded the collateral. In late March 2019, the Company and the other secured lenders determined they would not attempt to continue the development of 360fly with the intangible assets acquired at auction. Refer to Note 1(f) for additional details.

(a) For the allowance for doubtful accounts, cash discount allowances, and accrued sales incentives, deductions represent currency effects, chargebacks and payments made or credits issued to customers.  For the reserve for warranties and product repair costs, deductions represent currency effects and payments for labor and parts made to service centers and vendors for the repair of units returned under warranty.

(b) Within the reserve for warranties and product repair costs, Column D includes $500 of liabilities acquired during our Rosen acquisition in Fiscal 2018 and $832 that was reclassified to the return asset established in conjunction with the implementation of ASC Topic 606 in Fiscal 2019.

(c) As a result of the implementation of ASC 606 on March 1, 2018, the accounting treatment for the reserve for sales returns was changed from a net to a gross basis. Under the previous revenue guidance, we recorded a net return reserve. Under the new guidance, we record estimated sales returns at the gross sales price with a corresponding adjustment to inventory for the estimated cost of the product. The difference between the balance at the end of the fiscal year ended February 28, 2018 and the beginning of the year ended February 28, 2019 reflects this change in accounting policy.

Independent Auditor's Report

ASA Electronics, LLC and Subsidiaries

Elkhart, Indiana

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of ASA Electronics, LLC and Subsidiaries which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of November 30, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income, consolidated members’ equity and consolidated cash flows as of November 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016 and the related notes to the financial statements (collectively, the financial statements).

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

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

Auditor’s Responsibility

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

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

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

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ASA Electronics LLC and Subsidiaries, as of November 30, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and

its cash flows as of November 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Note 1 - Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of business: Since 1977, ASA Electronics, LLC (ASA or the Company) has built a reputation for developing mobile electronics specifically designed and tested to withstand the rigors of niche markets in the Automotive Industry including: Marine, Commercial Vehicle, Agricultural, Construction, Retail and Recreational Vehicles industries. Its proprietary line of products include: Jensen 12 Volt LCD and LED flat panel televisions, stereos, and speakers, Voyager Observation Systems, and Advent rooftop air conditioners. In 2015, ASA designed the Jensen In-Command system that replaces the control panel in the RV that historically was made up of rocker switches and buttons to a touch pad system that can be operated remotely using an app on a smart phone or tablet. These high quality mobile electronics and appliances are designed and tested in a research and development lab located at the Company’s corporate offices. ASA’s engineering team works in conjunction with its customers’ designers, engineers and sales team to develop customized solutions. ASA expanded its product to distribute Polk Audio products as well as license the Polk Audio brand for manufacturing. Polk Audio, also established in the 1970’s, is an award-winning designer and manufacturer of high performance audio products, who has become the market share leader in premium home and marine speakers, sound bars, amplifiers, and other high end audio products. In 2017, Klipsch, Bongiovi and ASA partnered and created a superior sound system for the Marine market. The addition of Polk and Klipsch brands compliments ASA’s existing product lineup and provides a full spectrum of audio and video options for our customers. The various products offered by ASA are sold throughout the world to Original Equipment Manufacturers as well as the respective Aftermarket segments. In addition to the headquarters in Elkhart, Indiana, ASA also has a public distribution center in California, and a trading office in Shenzhen, China.

Significant accounting policies:

Recent accounting pronouncements: In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The guidance in this ASU supersedes the leasing guidance in Topic 840, Leases. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). In May 2014, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that requires recognition of revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The FASB has also issued several updates to ASU 2014-09. The new standard supersedes U.S. GAAP guidance on revenue recognition and requires the use of more estimates and judgments than the present standards. It also requires additional disclosures. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 one year making it effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018.

Use of estimates: 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 as of 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.

Principles of consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue recognition: The Company recognizes revenue from product sales at the time of passage of title and risk of loss to the customer either at F.O.B. Shipping Point or F.O.B. Destination, based upon terms established with the customer. The Company’s selling price is fixed and determined at the time of shipment and collectability isreasonably assured and not contingent upon the customer’s resale of the product. The customers are generally not

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

given rights of return. In the event customers are granted rights of return, the Company estimates and records an allowance for future returns. At November 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016, no such allowance was deemed necessary. Product sales are generally not subject to acceptance or installation by Company or customer personnel.

All revenue transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars.

Shipping and delivery: The Company recognizes shipping and delivery costs in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. These costs for the years ended November 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016 were approximately $539,000, $455,000 and $382,000, respectively.

Sales incentives: The Company offers sales incentives to its customers primarily in the form of cooperative advertising allowances and rebates. All significant sales incentives require the customer to purchase the Company’s products during a specified period of time, and are based on either a fixed dollar amount or set percentage of sales. Claims are settled either by the customer claiming a deduction against an outstanding account receivable or by the customer requesting a check. Since the incentive percentage or amount can be reasonably estimated, the Company records the related incentive at the time of sale. The Company has also entered into the RV Aftermarket segment, with several of those customer’s having dollar specific co-op advertising programs for participation in trade shows, placement in catalogues, countertop display units, and other marketing programs. These co-op advertising programs are reviewed and adjusted, as necessary, on a quarterly basis. As of November 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016, sales incentive accruals reflected as a liability on the consolidated balance sheets was approximately $1,244,000, $709,000 and $643,000, respectively. The Company records all sales incentive as an offset to sales on the consolidated statements of income.

Members’ equity and subsequent event: In accordance with the generally accepted method of presenting limited liability company financial statements, the accompanying financial statements do not include other corporate assets and liabilities of the members, including their obligation for income taxes on the net income of the limited liability company nor any provision for income tax expenses.

The company’s intent is to reinvest its earnings into the business to support growth and capital expenditures. The company distributes funds to members to cover their income tax liability and distribute excess earnings. Subsequent to November 30, 2018, the Company paid approximately $3,390,000 of member distributions relating to the fourth quarter.

The LLC operating agreement does not provide for separate classes of ownership. VOXX International (VOXX) and ASA Electronics Corporation share equally in all LLC events and the related member accounts are considered equal on a fair value basis.

Cash and cash equivalents: For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers investments in various repurchase agreements with its bank, money market accounts and treasury bills with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents amounted to, approximately $5,000 and $770,000 at November 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Company maintains its cash accounts which, at times, may be in excess of insurance limits provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Trade receivables: Trade receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. Trade receivables in the accompanying balance sheets at November 30, 2018 and 2017 are stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $15,000 and $40,000, respectively. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received. Generally, a trade receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding for more than 30 days from its date.

Inventories: The Company values its inventory at the lower of the actual cost to purchase (primarily on a weighted moving average basis) and/or the current estimated market value of the inventory less expected costs to sell the inventory. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on-hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily from selling prices, indications from customers based upon current price

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

negotiations and lower market prices. The Company’s industry is characterized by rapid technological change and frequent new product introductions that could result in an increase in the amount of obsolete inventory quantities on-hand.

During the years ended November 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded write downs of inventory of approximately $601,000, $259,000 and $251,000, respectively, related to lower of cost or market adjustments. These charges to income are included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. As of November 30, 2018 and 2017 the Company maintained an inventory write down reserve of approximately $107,000 and $3,000, respectively.

Depreciation: Depreciation of leasehold improvements is computed over the lesser of the underlying lease term or the estimated useful lives and equipment is computed principally by the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

	Years
Leasehold improvements	5-9
Machinery and equipment	5-10
Tooling and molding	1-3
Transportation equipment	5
Office furniture and fixtures	10
Computer equipment	3
Booth displays	7

Tooling was amortized on a per unit basis. The Company estimated annual sales volume produced and life expectancy of the tooling to determine the per unit amortization amount. This per unit amount increased inventory cost upon receipt into a U.S. warehouse and was subsequently charged to cost of goods sold upon sale of the related product. As of September 1, 2017, the Company no longer increased the inventory cost upon receipt into the U.S. warehouse. As of December 1, 2017, the Company no longer charged the cost of goods sold upon sale of the related product. As of December 1, 2017, the Company will record tooling as straight line depreciation over 3 years.

Warranties: The Company provides a limited warranty primarily for a period of up to two years for its products. The Company’s standard warranties require the original equipment manufacturer, its dealers or the end user to repair or replace defective products during such warranty periods at no cost to the consumer. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its basic limited warranty and records a liability in the amount of such costs at the time product revenue is recognized. The related expense is included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, the historical lag time between product sales and product claims, and cost per claim. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary. The Company utilizes historical trends and analytical tools to assist in determining the appropriate loss reserve levels.

Changes in the Company’s warranty liability during the years ended November 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016 are as follows:

	2018			2017			2016
Balance, beginning of year	$	2,503,747		$	2,416,881		$	2,323,747

Income taxes: As a limited liability company, the Company’s taxable income is allocated to members in accordance with their respective percentage ownership. However, a provision for Hong Kong profit tax, China enterprise income tax, China value added tax, and U.S. state income tax for the years ended November 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016, in the amounts of approximately $40,000, $44,000 and $33,400, respectively, has been recorded.

Management evaluated the Company’s tax positions and concluded that the Company had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements to comply with the provisions of this guidance. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to tax examinations by the U.S. federal, state, or local tax authorities for years before 2015.

Long-lived assets and other intangible assets: The Company acquired certain trademark rights from VOXX in August 2003. In connection with the acquisition, VOXX sublicensed its rights in relation to the trademark to the Company and cannot terminate these rights under the terms of the acquisition agreement. The Company has accounted for trademark rights as an indefinite lived intangible asset. Accounting standards require that intangible assets with indefinite useful lives be tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that could more likely than not reduce the fair value below its carrying amount. When determining the fair value of trademark rights, the Company uses the relief from royalty method which requires the determination of fair value based on if the Company was licensing the right to the trademark in exchange for a royalty fee. The Company utilizes the income approach to determine future revenues to which to apply a royalty rate. The royalty rate is based on market approach concepts. In considering the value of trademark rights, the Company looks to relative age, consistent use, quality, expansion possibilities, relative profitability and relative market potential. The Company has performed its annual impairment test for the years ended November 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016 and no impairment was identified.

In accordance with accounting standards, the Company reviews its long-lived assets periodically to determine potential impairment. If indicators are present, the Company compares the carrying value of the long-lived assets with the estimated future net undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets, including cash flows from disposition. Should the sum of the expected future net cash flows be less that the carrying value, the Company would recognize an impairment loss at that date. An impairment loss would be measured by comparing the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets. There was no impairment of long-lived assets for the years ended November 30, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

Subsequent events: The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure through January 31, 2019, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

Note 2 - Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements: Accounting standards specify a hierarchy of valuation techniques based upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect assumptions other market participants would use based upon market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs), or reflect the Company’s own assumptions of market participant valuation (unobservable inputs). In accordance with the accounting standards, these two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets that are unadjusted and accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2 Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

10

ASA Electronics, LLC And Subsidiaries

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

The standard requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort. For the years ended November 30, 2018 and 2017, the application of valuation techniques applied to similar assets and liabilities has been consistent.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value.

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable: The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.

Available-for-sale securities: Available-for-sale securities consist of investments in marketable debt securities and United States Treasury Bills. Debt securities consist primarily of obligations of municipalities and corporate industrial revenue bonds, which are not subject to significant risk or fluctuation. The Companies who issue the bond are the first line of defense, secondly the principal of the bond is backed by a bank line of credit, and lastly the investment brokerage company conducts due diligence on the financial ability of issuer and bank to repay at the bond’s maturity.

Management determines the appropriate classification of securities at the date individual investment securities are acquired and the appropriateness of such classification is reassessed at each consolidated balance sheet date. Since the Company neither buys investment securities in anticipation of short-term fluctuation in market prices nor commits to holding debt securities to their maturities, the investments have been classified as available-for-sale in accordance with accounting standards. Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value, and unrealized holding gains and losses, if material, are reported as a separate component of members' equity.

The amount classified as current assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets represents the amount of marketable debt securities and United States Treasury Bills expected to be sold during the next year.

A decline in the market value of any available-for-sale security below cost that is deemed other than temporary results in a reduction in carrying amount to fair value. The impairment is charged to earnings and a new cost basis for the security is established. The Company considers numerous factors, on a case by case basis, in evaluating whether the decline in market value of an available-for-sale security below cost is other-than-temporary. Such factors include, but are not limited to, (i) the length of time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost, (ii) the financial condition and the near-term prospects of the issuer or the investment and, (iii) whether the Company’s intent to retain the investment for the period of time is sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. During the year ended November 30, 2018, the Company did not hold any investments that had such a decline in value.

The marketable debt securities contain a put feature that allows the Company to periodically sell the bonds to a brokerage house at par value. The bonds also have a floating interest rate which is reset on a periodic basis and are backed by third party letters of credit. As of November 30, 2018, the bonds had a weighted-average yield of 1.57 percent. To estimate their fair value, the Company considered the par value of the bonds, potential default probabilities, market yield curves and the seven day put feature.

The following is a summary of the Company’s investment as of November 30, 2018 and 2017:

Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

a)Description of Business

VOXX International Corporation ("Voxx," "We," "Our," "Us" or "the Company") is a leading international manufacturer and distributor in the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories industries. The Company has widely diversified interests, with more than 30 global brands that it has acquired and grown throughout the years, achieving a powerful international corporate image and creating a vehicle for each of these respective brands to emerge with its own identity. We conduct our business through sixteen wholly-owned subsidiaries: Audiovox Atlanta Corp., VOXX Electronics Corporation, VOXX Accessories Corp., VOXX German Holdings GmbH ("Voxx Germany"), Audiovox Canada Limited, Voxx Hong Kong Ltd., Audiovox International Corp., Audiovox Mexico, S. de R.L. de C.V. ("Voxx Mexico"), Code Systems, Inc., Oehlbach Kabel GmbH ("Oehlbach"), Schwaiger GmbH ("Schwaiger"), Invision Automotive Systems, Inc. ("Invision"), Klipsch Holding LLC ("Klipsch"), Omega Research and Development, LLC ("Omega"), Voxx Automotive Corp., and Audiovox Websales LLC, as well as one majority-owned subsidiary, EyeLock LLC ("EyeLock"). We market our products under the Audiovox® brand name, other brand names and licensed brands, such as 808®, Acoustic Research®, Advent®, Car Link®, Chapman®, Code-Alarm®, Discwasher®, Energy®, Heco®, Invision®, Jamo®, Klipsch®, Mac Audio^™, Magnat®, Mirage®, myris®, Oehlbach®, Omega®, Prestige®, Project Nursery®, RCA®, RCA Accessories®, Rosen®, Schwaiger®, Terk® and Voxx Automotive, as well as private labels through a large domestic and international distribution network.  We also function as an OEM ("Original Equipment Manufacturer") supplier to several customers, as well as market a number of products under exclusive distribution agreements, such as SiriusXM satellite radio products. 

On August 31, 2017, the Company completed its sale of Hirschmann Car Communication GmbH and its subsidiaries. See Note 2 for more details of this transaction. 

The Company's fiscal year ends on the last day of February. Fiscal 2017 represents the twelve months ended February 28, 2017. Fiscal 2018 represents the twelve months ended February 28, 2018. Fiscal 2019 represents the twelve months ended February 28, 2019.

b)Principles of Consolidation, Reclassifications and Accounting Principles

The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes include the financial statements of VOXX International Corporation and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company follows FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 810-10-45-21 to report a non-controlling interest in the consolidated balance sheets within the equity section, separately from the Company’s retained earnings. Non-controlling interest represents the non-controlling interest holder’s proportionate share of the equity of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary, EyeLock. Non-controlling interest is adjusted for the non-controlling interest holder’s proportionate share of the earnings or losses and other comprehensive income (loss), if any, and the non-controlling interest continues to be attributed its share of losses even if that attribution results in a deficit non-controlling interest balance.

Equity investments in which the Company exercises significant influence but does not control and is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for using the equity method.  The Company's share of its equity method investee's earnings or losses is included in Other (Expense) Income in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The Company eliminates its pro rata share of gross profit on sales to its equity method investee for inventory on hand at the investee at the end of the year. Investments in which the Company does not exercise significant influence over the investee, and which do not have readily determinable fair values, are accounted for under the cost method.

The Company's consolidated financial statements for Fiscal 2017 were recast to reflect a certain business that was classified as discontinued operations during the second quarter of Fiscal 2018. See Note 2 for additional information. Earnings per share amounts for continuing and discontinued operations are computed independently. As a result, the sum of the per share amounts may not equal the total.

c)Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses.  Such estimates include revenue recognition; accrued sales incentives; the allowance for doubtful accounts; inventory valuation; valuation of long-lived assets; valuation and impairment assessment of goodwill, trademarks and other intangible assets; warranty reserves; stock-based compensation; recoverability of deferred tax assets; and the reserve for uncertain tax positions at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

d)Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits with banks and highly liquid money market funds with original maturities of three months or less when purchased.  Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $58,236 and $51,740 at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in institutions and funds of high credit quality. Many of its balances are in excess of government insurance. We perform periodic evaluations of these institutions and funds. Cash amounts held in foreign bank accounts amounted to $325 and $303 at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively, none of which would be subject to United States federal income taxes if made available for use in the United States. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provides a 100% participation exemption on dividends received from foreign corporations after January 1, 2018 as the United States has moved away from a worldwide tax system and closer to a territorial system for earnings of foreign corporations.

e)Fair Value Measurements and Derivatives

The Company applies the authoritative guidance on "Fair Value Measurements," which among other things, requires enhanced disclosures about investments that are measured and reported at fair value. This guidance establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1 - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs developed using the Company's estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use.

The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at February 28, 2019:

			Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using
	Carrying Value		Level 1		Level 2
Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash and money market funds	$	58,236	$	58,236	$	—
Derivatives
Designated for hedging	$	88	$	—	$	88
Investment securities:
Mutual funds	$	2,858	$	2,858	$	—
Total investment securities	$	2,858	$	2,858	$	—

The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at February 28, 2018:

				Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using
	Carrying Value			Level 1		Level 2
Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash and money market funds	$	51,740		$	51,740	$	—
Derivatives
Designated for hedging	$	(262	)	$	—	$	(262	)
Investment securities:
Trading securities	$	3,620		$	3,620	$	—
Other investments at amortized cost (a)	547			—		—
Total investment securities	$	4,167		$	3,620	$	—

(a) This balance represents an investment in a non-controlled corporation held at cost at February 28, 2018 (See Note 1(f)). The fair value of this investment would be based upon Level 3 inputs and was not considered material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The carrying amount of the Company's accounts receivable, short-term debt, accounts payable, accrued expenses, bank obligations and long-term debt approximates fair value because of (i) the short-term nature of the financial instrument; (ii) the interest rate on the financial instrument being reset every quarter to reflect current market rates, or (iii) the stated or implicit interest rate approximates the current market rates or are not materially different than market rates.

Non-financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain long-lived non-financial assets and liabilities may be required to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in certain circumstances, including when there is evidence of impairment. These non-financial assets and liabilities may include assets acquired in a business combination or property and equipment that are determined to be impaired. As of February 28, 2019, certain non-financial assets have been measured at fair value subsequent to their initial recognition. See Note 1(p) for the discussion of the impairment of Venezuela investment properties, Note 1(k) for the discussion of the impairment of certain intangible assets, as well as Note 1(f) for the discussion of the impairment of notes receivable.

Derivative Instruments

The Company's derivative instruments include forward foreign currency contracts utilized to hedge a portion of its foreign currency inventory purchases. The Company also has an interest rate swap agreement as of February 28, 2019 that hedges interest rate exposure related to the forecasted outstanding balance of its Florida Mortgage with monthly payments due through March 2026. The forward foreign currency derivatives qualifying for hedge accounting are designated as cash flow hedges and valued using observable forward rates for the same or similar instruments (Level 2). The duration of open forward foreign currency contracts ranges from 1 month - 12 months and are classified in the balance sheet according to their terms. Interest rate swap agreements qualifying for hedge accounting are designated as cash flow hedges and valued based on a comparison of the change in fair value of the actual swap contracts designated as the hedging instruments and the change in fair value of a hypothetical swap contract (Level 2). We calculate the fair value of interest rate swap agreements quarterly based on the quoted market price for the same or similar financial instruments. Interest rate swaps are classified in the balance sheet as either non-current assets or non-current liabilities based on the fair value of the instruments at the end of the period. The swap agreement related to the Company's Florida Mortgage locks the interest rate on the debt at 3.48% (inclusive of credit spread) through the maturity date of the mortgage.

It is the Company's policy to enter into derivative instrument contracts with terms that coincide with the underlying exposure being hedged. As such, the Company's derivative instruments are expected to be highly effective. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, is recognized as incurred through Other (Expense) Income in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income and amounted to $46, $(48) and $130 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

Financial Statement Classification

The Company holds derivative instruments that are designated as hedging instruments. The following table discloses the fair value as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 for derivative instruments:

	Derivative Assets and Liabilities
		Fair Value
	Account	February 28, 2019			February 28, 2018
Designated derivative instruments
Foreign currency contracts	Accrued expenses and other current liabilities	$	—		$	(227	)
	Prepaid expenses and other current assets	172			—
Interest rate swap	Other long-term liabilities	(84		)	(35		)
Total derivatives		$	88		$	(262	)

Cash flow hedges

During Fiscal 2019, the Company entered into forward foreign currency contracts, which have a current outstanding notional value of $9,600 at February 28, 2019 and are designated as cash flow hedges. The current outstanding notional value of the Company's interest rate swap at February 28, 2019 was $8,112. For cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss is reported as a component of Other comprehensive (loss) income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

Activity related to cash flow hedges from continuing operations recorded during the twelve months ended February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 was as follows:

	February 28, 2019								February 28, 2018
	Gain (Loss) Recognized in Other Comprehensive Income			Gain (Loss) Reclassified into Cost of Sales			Gain (Loss) for Ineffectiveness in Other Income		Gain (Loss) Recognized in Other Comprehensive Income			Gain (Loss) Reclassified into Cost of Sales			Gain (Loss) for Ineffectiveness in Other Income
Cash flow hedges
Foreign currency contracts	$	708		$	(13	)	$	46	$	(1,635	)	$	(297	)	$	(48	)
Interest rate swaps	$	(49	)	$	—		$	—	$	263		$	—		$	—

The net gain recognized in Other comprehensive (loss) income for foreign currency contracts is expected to be recognized in cost of sales within the next fifteen months. No amounts were excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness during the respective periods. During the years ended February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, no contracts originally designated for hedge accounting were de-designated. As of February 28, 2019, no contracts originally designated for hedge accounting were terminated. See Note 1(v) for information regarding activity related to cash flow hedges pertaining to discontinued operations and assets and liabilities held for sale.

f)Investment Securities

Long-Term Investments

Equity Securities

As required, in the first quarter of Fiscal 2019 the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” ("ASU 2016-01"), which requires changes to the accounting for financial instruments that affect the Company’s equity investments and the presentation and disclosure for such instruments. Marketable equity securities previously classified as available-for-sale equity investments are now measured and recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The impact of adopting ASU 2016-01 resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment of $24, which was recorded in Other (expense) income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income for the year ended February 28, 2019, rather than in retained earnings, as it was not considered material to the Company's consolidated financial statements for the period.

Mutual Funds

The Company’s mutual funds are held in connection with its deferred compensation plan. Changes in the carrying value of these securities are offset by changes in the corresponding deferred compensation liability.

Upon the adoption of ASU 2016-01, changes in fair value of equity securities are now recorded within the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income, and as such, other than temporary impairment ("OTTI") considerations are no longer made with respect to equity securities. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-01, in determining whether equity securities were other than temporarily impaired, the Company considered its intent and ability to hold a security for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of cost, along with factors including the length of time each security had been in an unrealized loss position, the extent of the decline and the near-term prospect for recovery. Additionally, on a quarterly basis, the Company was required to make a qualitative assessment of whether the investment was impaired. No other-than-temporary losses were incurred for the years ended February 28, 2018 or February 28, 2017.

Investments Held at Cost, Less Impairment

At February 28, 2018, other long-term investments consisted of investment in a non-controlled corporation accounted for by the cost method. On July 31, 2017, RxNetworks, a Canadian company in which Voxx held a cost method investment consisting of shares of the investee's preferred stock, was sold to a third party. In consideration for its holdings in RxNetworks on July 31, 2017, Voxx received cash, as well as a proportionate share of the value (consisting of common stock) in a newly formed subsidiary of RxNetworks, called Fathom Systems Inc. ("Fathom"), a start-up company. As a result of this transaction, Voxx recognized a gain of $1,416 for the year ended February 28, 2018. The cash proceeds were subject to a hold-back provision, which was not included in the calculation of the gain recognized. The Company's investment in Fathom totaled $547 or 8.1% of the outstanding common shares of Fathom at February 28, 2018. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, Fathom repurchased all of the outstanding common stock of its shareholders for a price per share significantly below the value when issued. This resulted in a loss on Voxx's investment in Fathom of $530 for the year ended February 28, 2019. Voxx has no remaining investment or ownership in Fathom Systems Inc. as of February 28, 2019.

The Company holds various notes receivable from 360fly, Inc. ("360fly"), designers and creators of 360° cameras and technology. These notes receivable, which aggregated $17,242 principal amount at February 28, 2019. Of the $17,242 notes receivable, $14,107 were convertible into preferred stock of 360fly, Inc. At November 30, 2018, these notes aggregated $15,588 principal amount, were recorded in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet under the caption Prepaid expenses and other current assets.

On December 12, 2018, one of the notes was amended to increase the available amount under the note by $1,000 and amend the due date to January 7, 2019. Of the notes receivable then outstanding, a $5,271 aggregate principal balance, which included a previous cash advance of $231 secured by the amendment, became payable on January 7, 2019, and the aggregate principal balance of $10,588 was payable on August 31, 2019. These notes receivable are senior secured notes and were collateralized by the intangible and tangible assets of 360fly, Inc. The notes bear interest at 8% per annum. Prior to close of business on January 7, 2019, the Company amended the note receivable that was due on January 7, 2019 increasing the amount available under the note by an additional $500 and extending the payment terms to January 19, 2019.

As all of the notes receivable are due from the same debtor, all the notes are deemed to have the same credit quality. The notes receivable were on a non-accrual status during the three and twelve months ended February 28, 2019, and during the year ended February 28, 2018, as payment of interest was not reasonably assured. The credit quality of the notes receivable was previously deemed to not present a significant risk of loss or default of the principal payments based upon on-going business developments. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, the credit quality of the debtor deteriorated.

On January 23, 2019, the Company, as Collateral Agent for the senior secured lenders, and for itself, provided a Notice of Maturity, Default and Acceleration to 360fly, Inc., indicating that: (i) all the unpaid principal of $16,818 and accrued interest owed under all the outstanding notes with the Company became due as a result of uncured defaults in payment under the notes; and (ii) the Company, as Collateral Agent, would proceed with foreclosure of collateral, securing the notes, with a scheduled auction date of March 5, 2019. Notice of the auction was provided through public advertisement and online posting during the month of February 2019.

Prior to February 28, 2019, the Company was in negotiations with other senior secured lenders of 360fly, seeking to establish a new company with the senior secured lenders ("Newco") for the purposes of acquiring 360fly's assets through a credit bid at the foreclosure sale. If the credit bid was successful, the Company planned to provide funding to Newco to maintain sufficient staff and related expenses to continue to develop products and associated technology for anticipated sales to prospective customers. 360fly was not able to secure any additional funding, meet its projections for January or February 2019, provide any assurances that the missed projections would be achieved or of further development with prospective customers, and ultimately ceased normal business operations. During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company lent additional funds totaling $1,423 to 360fly, a portion of which was provided subsequent to the due date of the notes to secure the collateral. In addition, negotiations with other potential investors to purchase a portion of the Company's notes ceased.

Based on the above events and conditions present at February 28, 2019, the Company determined that the notes receivable were uncollectible. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge for the three and twelve months ended February 28, 2019 of $16,509 (net of reserves) as it was probable that the Company would not be, and was not, paid in accordance with the contractual terms of the notes, as all amounts were due on January 19, 2019. As the notes are collateral dependent notes, the estimated fair value of the collateral was compared to the carrying value of the notes. The fair value of the collateral, less cost to sell, was deemed to be zero at February 28, 2019, after consideration of the absence of potential bidders in the auction process, costs to sell the collateral at a future date, prospects for future revenue streams related to the collateral barring additional development expenditures, and the speculative nature of proceeds from a future sale.

On March 5, 2019, the Company, as Collateral Agent, was the only bidder at the auction with a credit bid of $1,000 and was awarded the collateral. In late March 2019, the Company and the other secured lenders determined they would not attempt to continue the development of 360fly with the intangible assets acquired at auction.

g)Revenue Recognition

On March 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all the related amendments (“ASC Topic 606”), using the modified retrospective method. In addition, we elected to apply certain of the permitted practical expedients within the revenue recognition guidance and make certain accounting policy elections, including those related to significant financing components, sales taxes and shipping and handling activities. Most of the changes resulting from the adoption of ASC Topic 606 on March 1, 2018 were changes in presentation within the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Therefore, while we made adjustments to certain opening balances on our March 1, 2018 Consolidated Balance Sheet, we made no adjustment to opening Retained Earnings. We expect the impact of the adoption of ASC Topic 606 to be immaterial to our net income on an ongoing basis; however, adoption did increase the level of disclosures concerning our net sales. Results for reporting periods beginning March 1, 2018 are presented under the new guidance, while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previous guidance without revision.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The core principle of ASC Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. We apply the FASB’s guidance on revenue recognition, which requires us to recognize the amount of revenue and consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for goods and services transferred to our customers. To do this, the Company applies the five-step model prescribed by the FASB, which requires us to: (i) identify the contract with the customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

We account for a contract or purchase order when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. Revenue is recognized when control of the product passes to the customer, which is upon shipment, unless otherwise specified within the customer contract or on the purchase order as delivery, and is recognized at the amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive for the products sold, including various forms of discounts. When revenue is recorded, estimates of returns are made and recorded as a reduction of revenue. Contracts with customers are evaluated to determine if there are separate performance obligations related to timing of product shipment that will be satisfied in different accounting periods. When that is the case, revenue is deferred until each performance obligation is met. Within our Automotive segment, while the majority of the contracts we enter into with Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEM”) are long-term supply arrangements, the performance obligations are established by the enforceable contract, which is generally considered to be the purchase order. The purchase orders are of durations less than one year. As such, the Company applies the practical expedient in ASC paragraph 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less, for which work has not yet been performed. The Company has also elected the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4, whereby the Company recognizes incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the assets the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less.

Certain taxes assessed by governmental authorities on revenue producing transactions, such as value added taxes, are excluded from revenue and recorded on a net basis.

Performance Obligations

The Company’s primary source of revenue is derived from the manufacture and distribution of premium audio, consumer accessories, and automotive products. Our consumer accessories products primarily consist of finished goods sold to retail customers, while our premium audio products primarily consist of finished goods sold to both retail and commercial customers. Our automotive products are sold both to OEM and aftermarket customers. Over fifty percent of the products sold to our automotive customers are manufactured by the Company. We recognize revenue for sales to our customers when transfer of control of the related good or service has occurred. All of our revenue was recognized under the point in time approach for the year ended February 28, 2019. Contract terms with certain of our OEM customers could result in products and services being transferred over time as a result of the customized nature of some of our products, together with contractual provisions in the customer contracts that provide us with an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date; however, under typical terms, we do not have the right to consideration until the time of shipment from our manufacturing facilities or distribution centers, or until the time of delivery to our customers. If certain contracts in the future provide the Company with this enforceable right of payment, the timing of revenue recognition from products transferred to customers over time may be slightly accelerated compared to our right to consideration at the time of shipment or delivery.

Our typical payment terms vary based on thecustomer and the type of goods and services in the contract or purchase order. The period of time between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. Amounts billed and due from our customers are classified as receivables on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. As our standard payment terms are less than one year, we have elected the practical expedient under ASC paragraph 606-10-32-18 to not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component.

Our customers take delivery of goods, and they are recognized as revenue at the time of transfer of control to the customer, which is usually at the time of shipment, unless otherwise specified in the customer contract or purchase order. This determination is based on applicable shipping terms, as well as the consideration of other indicators, including timing of when the Company has a present right to payment, when physical possession of products is transferred to customers, when the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset, and any provisions in contracts regarding customer acceptance.

While unit prices are generally fixed, we provide variable consideration for certain of our customers, typically in the form of promotional incentives at the time of sale. We utilize the most likely amount consistently to estimate the effect of uncertainty on the amount of variable consideration to which we would be entitled. The most likely amount method considers the single most likely amount from a range of possible consideration amounts. The most likely amounts are based upon the contractual terms of the incentives and historical experience with each customer. We record estimates for cash discounts, promotional rebates, and other promotional allowances in the period the related revenue is recognized (“Customer Credits”). The provision for Customer Credits is recorded as a reduction from gross sales and reserves for Customer Credits are presented within accrued sales incentives on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Actual Customer Credits have not differed materially from estimated amounts for each period presented. Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling are included in net sales and costs associated with shipping and handling are included in cost of sales. We have concluded that our estimates of variable consideration are not constrained according to the definition within the standard. Additionally, the Company applies the practical expedient in ASC paragraph 606-10-25-18B and accounts for shipping and handling activities that occur after the customer has obtained control of a good as a fulfillment activity, rather than a separate performance obligation.

With the adoption of ASC Topic 606, we reclassified certain amounts related to variable consideration. Under ASC Topic 606, we are required to present a refund liability and a return asset within the Consolidated Balance Sheet, whereas in periods prior to adoption, we presented the estimated margin impact of expected returns as a contra-asset within accounts receivable. The changes in the refund liability are reported in net sales, and the changes in the return asset are reported in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. As a result, the balance sheet presentation was adjusted beginning in Fiscal 2019. See Note 14 for return asset and refund liability balances as of February 28, 2019.

We warrant our products against certain defects in material and workmanship when used as designed, which primarily range from 30 days to 3 years. We offer limited lifetime warranties on certain products, which limit the customer’s remedy to the repair or replacement of the defective product or part for the designated lifetime of the product, or for the life of the vehicle for the original owner, if it is an automotive product. We do not sell extended warranties.

Contract Balances

Contract assets primarily relate to the Company’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date on contracts with customers. Contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional. Contract liabilities primarily relate to contracts where advance payments or deposits have been received, but performance obligations have not yet been met, and therefore, revenue has not been recognized.

h)Accounts Receivable

The majority of the Company's accounts receivable are due from companies in the retail, mass merchant and OEM industries. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer's financial condition. Accounts receivable are generally due within 30 days - 60 days and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the contracted payment terms are considered past due.

Accounts receivable is comprised of the following:

	February 28, 2019		February 28, 2018
Trade accounts receivable	$	77,064	$	84,517
Less:
Allowance for doubtful accounts	2,548		2,196
Allowance for cash discounts	1,125		1,205
	$	73,391	$	81,116

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customers' current credit worthiness, as determined by a review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. While such credit losses have historically been within management's expectations and the provisions established, the Company cannot guarantee it will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that have been experienced in the past. The Company writes off accounts receivable balances when collection efforts have been exhausted and deemed uncollectible. Our five largest customer balances comprise 24% of our accounts receivable balance as of February 28, 2019. A significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any one of these customers could have a material adverse impact on the collectability of accounts receivable and our results of operations.

The Company has three supply chain financing agreements and factoring agreements with certain financial institutions to accelerate receivable collection and better manage cash flow. Under the agreements, the Company has agreed to sell these institutions certain of its accounts receivable balances. For those accounts receivables tendered to the banks and that the banks choose to purchase, the banks have agreed to advance an amount equal to the net accounts receivable balances due, less a discount as set forth in the respective agreements. The balances under these agreements are sold without recourse and are accounted for as sales of accounts receivable. Cash proceeds from these agreements are reflected as operating activities included in the change in accounts receivable in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Total balances from continuing operations sold under the agreements, net of discounts, for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 were approximately $105,000, $142,000 and $141,000, respectively. Fees incurred in connection with the agreements totaled $929, $957 and $877 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively, and are recorded within Interest and Bank Charges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

i)Inventory

The Company values its inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value ("NRV"). NRV is defined as estimated selling prices less costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The cost of the inventory is determined primarily on an average basis with a portion valued at standard cost, which approximates actual costs on the first-in, first-out basis. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on-hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on selling prices, indications from customers based upon current price negotiations and purchase orders.  The Company's industry is characterized by rapid technological change and frequent new product introductions that could result in an increase in the amount of obsolete inventory quantities on-hand. In addition, and as necessary, specific reserves for future known or anticipated events may be established.  The Company recorded inventory write-downs from continuing operations of $4,580, $2,733 and $1,987 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

Inventories by major category are as follows:

	February 28, 2019		February 28, 2018
Raw materials	$	27,518	$	28,071
Work in process	2,622		2,485
Finished goods	72,239		87,436
Inventory, net	$	102,379	$	117,992

j)Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Property under a capital lease is stated at the present value of minimum lease payments. Major improvements and replacements that extend service lives of the assets are capitalized. Minor replacements, and routine maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

A summary of property, plant and equipment, net, is as follows:

	February 28, 2019		February 28, 2018
Land	$	10,110	$	9,522
Buildings	49,301		51,375
Property under capital lease	1,907		1,578
Furniture and fixtures	3,878		4,262
Machinery and equipment	8,618		10,373
Construction-in-progress	155		148
Computer hardware and software	37,591		37,408
Automobiles	808		921
Leasehold improvements	2,682		2,713
	115,050		118,300
Less accumulated depreciation and amortization	54,557		53,041
	$	60,493	$	65,259

Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or estimated useful life of the asset. Assets acquired under capital leases are amortized over the term of the respective lease. Accumulated amortization of assets under capital lease totaled $979 and $669 at February 28, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment from continuing operations amounted to $5,360, $5,658 and $5,907 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively. Included in depreciation and amortization expense is amortization of computer software costs of $1,537, $1,611 and $1,473 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively. Also included in depreciation and amortization expense is $491, $372 and $153 of amortization expense related to property under capital leases for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

See Note 1(p) for discussion of long-lived asset impairment charges recorded for the year ended February 28, 2019 related to real estate properties held by the Company's Venezuela subsidiary.

k)Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and other intangible assets consist of the excess over the fair value of assets acquired (goodwill), and other intangible assets (patents, contracts, trademarks/tradenames, developed technology and customer relationships).  Values assigned to the respective assets are determined in accordance with ASC 805 "Business Combinations" ("ASC 805") and ASC 350 "Intangibles – Goodwill and Other" ("ASC 350").

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the cost of purchased businesses over the value of their underlying net assets. Generally, the primary valuation method used to determine the fair value ("FV") of acquired businesses is the Discounted Future Cash Flow Method ("DCF").  A five-year period is analyzed using a risk adjusted discount rate.

The value of potential intangible assets separate from goodwill are independently evaluated and assigned to the respective categories.  The largest categories from our recently acquired businesses are Developed Technology, Trademarks, and Customer Relationships. The FV’s of trademarks acquired are determined using the Relief from Royalty Method based on projected sales of the trademarked products.  The FV’s of customer relationships and developed technology are determined using the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method which includes a DCF analysis, adjusted for a required return on tangible and intangible assets. The Company categorizes this fair value determination as Level 3 (unobservable) in the fair value hierarchy, as described in Note 1(e).

The guidance in ASC 350, including management’s business intent for its use; ongoing market demand for products relevant to the category and their ability to generate future cash flows; legal, regulatory or contractual provisions on its use or subsequent renewal, as applicable; and the cost to maintain or renew the rights to the assets, are considered in determining the useful life of all intangible assets.  If the Company determines that there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors which limit the useful life of the asset, an indefinite life will be assigned and evaluated for impairment as indicated below.  Goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not amortized.  Intangible assets that have a definite useful life are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life.

ASC 350 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives be tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that could more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.  Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are required to be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment if indicators of impairment exist. To determine the fair value of goodwill and intangible assets, there are many assumptions and estimates used that directly impact the results of the testing. Management has the ability to influence the outcome and ultimate results based on the assumptions and estimates chosen. If a significant change in these assumptions and/or estimates occurs, the Company could experience impairment charges, in addition to those noted below, in future periods.

Goodwill is tested using a two-step process. The first step is to identify a potential impairment, and the second step measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying amount of the reporting unit's goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value. For intangible assets with indefinite lives, primarily trademarks, the Company compared the fair value of each intangible asset with its carrying amount. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are considered impaired if the carrying value exceeds the fair value.  

Voxx's reporting units that carry goodwill are Invision, Rosen, and Klipsch. The Company has three operating segments based upon its products and internal organizational structure (see Note 13). These operating segments are the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories segments. The Invision and Rosen reporting units are located within the Automotive segment and the Klipsch reporting unit is located within the Premium Audio segment.

The Company performed its annual impairment test for goodwill as of February 28, 2019. The discount rates (developed using a weighted average cost of capital analysis) used in the goodwill test ranged from 13.0% to 13.1%. Based on the Company's goodwill impairment assessment, all reporting units with goodwill had estimated fair values as of February 28, 2019 that exceeded their carrying values. No goodwill impairment charges were recorded during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017. The goodwill balances of Invision, Klipsch and Rosen at February 28, 2019 are $7,372, $46,533, and $880, respectively.

During the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company re-evaluated its projections for several brands in its Consumer Accessories and Automotive segments based on lower than anticipated results. Specifically, during the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the lower than anticipated results were due to reduced product load-ins, increased competition for certain product lines, a streamlining of SKU’s, and a change in market strategy for one of its brands. Accordingly, these were considered indicators of impairment requiring the Company to test the related indefinite-lived tradenames for impairment as of August 31, 2018. As a result of this analysis, it was determined that several of the Company’s Consumer Accessory trademarks and one Automotive trademark were impaired. The Company recorded impairment charges of $9,654 and $160 during the quarter ended August 31, 2018 for the Consumer Accessories and Automotive segments, respectively.

The Company also tested its indefinite-lived intangible assets as of February 28, 2019 as part of its annual impairment testing. During the fourth quarter, the Company further streamlined its SKU’s in conjunction with its corporate realignment and transformation initiatives, and adjusted expectations for select customer demand, and the anticipated results from alternative sales channels for one of its brands. As a result of this analysis, it was determined that two of the Company’s Consumer Accessory trademarks were impaired. The Company recorded additional impairment charges of $15,975 during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019 related to the Consumer Accessories segment.

To perform these impairment analyses, the respective fair values were estimated using a Relief-from-Royalty Method, applying royalty rates of 0.5% to 7.0% for the trademarks after reviewing comparable market rates, the profitability of the products associated with relative intangible assets, and other qualitative factors. We determined that risk-adjusted discount rates ranging from 12.4% to 25.0% were appropriately developed using a weighted average cost of capital analysis. The long-term growth rates ranged from 0% to 3.0%.

The Fiscal 2019 impairment charges recorded during the second and fourth quarters were the result of various considerations and initiatives that occurred during the fiscal year. These factors led to the Fiscal 2019 impairment charges for indefinite lived intangibles of $25,789 outlined above. No impairment charges were recorded related to indefinite-lived intangible assets for the years ended February 28, 2018 or February 28, 2017.

As a result of the Fiscal 2019 impairments, the Company evaluated the related long-lived assets at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows. No additional impairments of the related long-lived assets were recorded as a result of these analyses. Management has determined that the current lives of its long-lived assets are appropriate. Management has determined that there were no other indicators of impairment that would cause the carrying values related to intangible assets with definite lives to exceed their expected future cash flows at February 28, 2019. Additionally, no impairment charges were recorded related to definite-lived intangible assets for the years ended February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017.

Approximately 46% ($34,662) of the carrying value of the Company's indefinite lived tradenames are at risk of impairment and sensitive to changes and assumptions as of February 28, 2019. There can be no assurance that our estimates and assumptions made for purposes of impairment testing as of February 28, 2019 will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. Reduced demand for our existing product offerings, less than anticipated results for the holiday season, lack of acceptance of our new products, elimination of additional SKU's, the inability to successfully develop our brands, or unfavorable changes in assumptions used in the discounted cash flow model such as discount rates, royalty rates or projected long-term growth rates could result in additional impairment charges in the future.

During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a third party in which Voxx acquired a patent portfolio relating to rear seat entertainment (see Note 15). In consideration of this patent purchase, Voxx previously advanced $2,600 in connection with this matter and the patents are recorded within Intangible assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company performed a valuation of these intangible assets during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, concluding that the value of the patents approximated the amount paid for these assets.

The weighted-average remaining amortization period for amortizing intangibles as of February 28, 2019 is approximately 3 years. The Company expenses the renewal costs of patents as incurred. The weighted-average period before the renewal of our patents is approximately 3 years.

Amortization expense for intangible assets amounted to $6,984, $6,516 and $6,479 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.  At February 28, 2019, the estimated aggregate amortization expense for all amortizable intangibles for each of the succeeding five fiscal years is as follows:

Fiscal Year	Amount
2020	$	6,931
2021	6,724
2022	6,596
2023	5,650

l)Sales Incentives

The Company offers sales incentives to its customers in the form of (1) co-operative advertising allowances; (2) market development funds; (3) volume incentive rebates; and (4) other trade allowances.  The Company accounts for sales incentives in accordance with ASC 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606").  These sales incentives represent variable consideration provided to customers. We utilize the most likely amount consistently to estimate the effect of uncertainty on the amount of variable consideration to which we would be entitled. The most likely amount method considers the single most likely amount from a range of possible consideration amounts. The most likely amounts are based upon the contractual terms of the incentives and historical experience with each customer. Except for other trade allowances, all sales incentives require the customer to purchase the Company's products during a specified period of time. All sales incentives require customers to claim the sales incentive within a certain time period (referred to as the "claim period") and claims are settled either by the customer claiming a deduction against an outstanding account receivable or by the customer requesting a cash payout.  All costs associated with sales incentives are classified as a reduction of net sales. The following is a summary of the various sales incentive programs:

Co-operative advertising allowances are offered to customers as reimbursement towards their costs for print or media advertising in which the Company’s product is featured on its own or in conjunction with other companies' products. The amount offered is either a fixed amount or is based upon a fixed percentage of sales revenue or a fixed amount per unit sold to the customer during a specified time period.

Market development funds are offered to customers in connection with new product launches or entrance into new markets. The amount offered for new product launches is based upon a fixed amount, or percentage of sales revenue to the customer or a fixed amount per unit sold to the customer during a specified time period.

Volume incentive rebates offered to customers require minimum quantities of product to be purchased during a specified period of time. The amount offered is either based upon a fixed percentage of sales revenue to the customer or a fixed amount per unit sold to the customer. The Company makes an estimate of the ultimate amount of the rebate their customers will earn based upon past history with the customers and other facts and circumstances. The Company has the ability to estimate these volume incentive rebates, as the period of time for a particular rebate to be claimed is relatively short.  Any changes in the estimated amount of volume incentive rebates are recognized immediately using a cumulative catch-up adjustment. The Company accrues the cost of co-operative advertising allowances, volume incentive rebates and market development funds at the latter of when the customer purchases our products or when the sales incentive is offered to the customer.

Unearned sales incentives are volume incentive rebates where the customer did not purchase the required minimum quantities of product during the specified time. Volume incentive rebates are reversed into income in the period when the customer did not reach the required minimum purchases of product during the specified time. Unclaimed sales incentives are sales incentives earned by the customer, but the customer has not claimed payment within the claim period (period after program has ended). Unclaimed sales incentives are investigated in a timely manner after the end of the program and reversed if deemed appropriate. The Company believes the reversal of earned but unclaimed sales incentives upon the expiration of the claim period is a systematic, rational, consistent and conservative method of reversing unclaimed sales incentives.

Other trade allowances are additional sales incentives the Company provides to customers subsequent to the related revenue being recognized. The Company records the provision for these additional sales incentives at the latter of when the sales incentive is offered or when the related revenue is recognized. Such additional sales incentives are based upon a fixed percentage of the selling price to the customer, a fixed amount per unit, or a lump-sum amount.

The accrual balance for sales incentives at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 was $13,574 and $14,020, respectively.  Although the Company makes its best estimate of its sales incentive liability, many factors, including significant unanticipated changes in the purchasing volume of its customers and the lack of claims made by customers, could have a significant impact on the sales incentives liability and reported operating results.

A summary of the activity with respect to accrued sales incentives is provided below:

	Year Ended			Year Ended			Year Ended
	February 28, 2019			February 28, 2018			February 28, 2017
Opening balance	$	14,020		$	13,154		$	12,439
Accruals	37,272			42,722			36,413
Payments and credits	(37,516		)	(41,811		)	(35,590		)
Reversals for unearned sales incentives	(202		)	(45		)	(108		)
Ending balance	$	13,574		$	14,020		$	13,154

The majority of the reversals of previously established sales incentive liabilities pertain to sales recorded in prior periods.

m)Advertising

Excluding co-operative advertising, the Company expensed the cost of advertising, as incurred, of $5,417, $11,753 and $8,597 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

n)Research and Development

Expenditures for research and development are charged to expense as incurred. Such expenditures amounted to $9,169, $10,954 and $13,202 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively, net of customer reimbursement, of $375, $106 and $0, respectively, and are included within Engineering and Technical Support expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. Reimbursements from OEM customers for development services are reflected as a reduction of research and development expense because the performance of contract development services is not central to the Company's operations.

o)Product Warranties and Product Repair Costs

The Company generally warranties its products against certain manufacturing and other defects. This warranty does not provide a service beyond assuring that the products comply with agreed-upon specifications and is not sold separately. The Company provides warranties for all of its products ranging primarily from 30 days to three years. The Company also provides limited lifetime warranties for certain products, which limit the end user's remedy to the repair or replacement of the defective product during its lifetime, as well as for certain vehicle security products for the life of the vehicle for the original owner. Warranty expenses are accrued at the time the related revenue is recognized, based on the Company's estimated cost to repair expected product returns for warranty matters. This liability is based primarily on historical experiences of actual warranty claims as well as current information on repair costs and contract terms with certain manufacturers. The warranty liability of $3,090 and $4,261 is recorded in Accrued Expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. In addition, the Company records a reserve for product repair costs which is based upon the quantities of defective inventory on hand and an estimate of the cost to repair such defective inventory. The reserve for product repair costs of $1,379 and $1,972 is recorded as a reduction to inventory in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. Warranty claims and product repair costs expense relating to continuing operations for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 were $6,091, $7,428 and $5,843, respectively.

Changes in the Company's accrued product warranties and product repair costs are as follows:

	Year Ended			Year Ended			Year Ended
	February 28, 2019			February 28, 2018			February 28, 2017
Beginning balance	$	6,233		$	5,608		$	7,608
Liabilities acquired during acquisitions	—			500			—
Accrual for warranties issued during the year and repair cost	6,091			7,428			5,843
Balances transferred (a)	(832		)	—			—
Warranty claims settled during the year	(7,023		)	(7,303		)	(7,843		)
Ending balance	$	4,469		$	6,233		$	5,608

(a) In conjunction with the implementation of ASC Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (see Note 1(g)), the Company recorded a refund liability, representing the amount of consideration received for products sold that the Company expects to refund to customers, as well as a corresponding return asset that reflects the Company's right to receive goods back from customers. The return asset is calculated as the carrying amount of goods at the time of sale, less any expected costs to recover the goods and any expected reduction in value and is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at February 28, 2019. The balance above represents amounts that would reduce the value of inventory returned to the Company and has been reclassified to the return asset in order to properly reflect the value of the inventory the Company expects to receive back from customers.

p)Foreign Currency

Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries located outside the United States whose cash flows are primarily in local currencies have been translated at rates of exchange at the end of the period or historical exchange rates, as appropriate in accordance with ASC 830, "Foreign Currency Matters" ("ASC 830"). Revenues and expenses have been translated at the weighted-average rates of exchange in effect during the period.  Gains and losses resulting from translation are recorded in the cumulative foreign currency translation account in Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income. For the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the Company recorded total net foreign currency transaction gains (losses) in the amount of $220, $(8,769) and $(509), respectively. Included within the losses recorded for the year ended February 28, 2018 is the loss on forward contracts totaling $(6,618) incurred in conjunction with the sale of Hirschmann (see Note 2).

The Company has a subsidiary in Venezuela. Venezuela is currently experiencing significant political and civil unrest and economic instability and has been troubled with various foreign currency and price controls. The country has experienced high rates of inflation over the last several years. The President of Venezuela has the authority to legislate certain areas by decree, which allows the government to nationalize certain industries or expropriate certain companies and property. These factors have had a negative impact on our business and financial condition. On March 1, 2010, the Company transitioned to hyper-inflationary accounting for Venezuela in accordance with the guidelines in ASC 830, "Foreign Currency." A hyper-inflationary economy designation occurs when a country has experienced cumulative inflation of approximately 100 percent or more over a 3-year period.  The hyper-inflationary designation requires the local subsidiary in Venezuela to record all transactions as if they were denominated in U.S. dollars.  

Since January 2014, the Venezuelan government has created multiple alternative exchange rates designated to be used for the purchase of goods and services deemed non-essential. In March 2016, the government re-named its Marginal Currency System the DICOM exchange rate, which the Venezuelan government reported would be allowed to float to meet market needs. On August 20, 2018, the government further devalued the Bolivar Fuerte in an attempt to address continuing hyperinflation, also renaming it the Sovereign Bolivar. As of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, the Bolivars to U.S. dollar exchange rate was approximately 3,290 and 35,280, respectively. The Company evaluated all of the facts and circumstances surrounding its Venezuelan operations and determined that as of February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the DICOM/Sovereign Bolivar rate was the appropriate rate to use for remeasuring the subsidiary’s financial statements. For the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, total net currency exchange losses of $6, $148 of $8 were recorded, respectively, related to Venezuela. All currency exchange gains and losses are included in Other Income (Expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

The Company holds certain long-lived assets in Venezuela, which includes an office location the subsidiary uses for its local personnel, as its automotive operations are currently suspended, as well as other rental properties. All of these properties are held for investment purposes as of February 28, 2019. During the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company made an assessment of the recoverability of these properties as a result of the country's continued economic deterioration, which included the significant currency devaluation in August of 2018. The Company estimated the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be received from these properties. The estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows considered the Company’s financial condition and its intent and ability to retain its investments for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of the carrying value. The future undiscounted cash flows did not exceed the net carrying value for the long-lived assets. The estimated fair value of the properties, which also considered the current conditions of the economy in Venezuela, the volatility of the real estate market, and the significant political unrest, resulted in a full non-cash impairment charge of $3,473 for the year ended February 28, 2019, which wrote off the remaining balance of the Company's property, plant, and equipment in Venezuela. The non-cash impairment charge is included in Other Income (Expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

q)Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, we consider all positive and negative evidence including the results of recent operations, scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, future taxable income and tax planning strategies. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled (see Note 8). The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Uncertain Tax Positions

The Company adopted guidance included in ASC 740 "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740") as it relates to uncertain tax positions.  The guidance addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements.  Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only 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 position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements.

Tax interest and penalties

The Company classifies interest and penalties associated with income taxes as a component of Income Tax Expense (Benefit) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

r)Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share from continuing operations, net of non-controlling interest, is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share from continuing operations reflects the potential dilution that would occur if common stock equivalent securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

There are no reconciling items which impact the numerator of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share.  A reconciliation between the denominator of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share is as follows:

	Year Ended	Year Ended	Year Ended
	February 28, 2019	February 28, 2018	February 28, 2017
Weighted-average common shares outstanding (basic)	24,355,791	24,290,563	24,160,324
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options, warrants and restricted stock	—	256,683	—
Weighted-average common and potential common shares outstanding (diluted)	24,355,791	24,547,246	24,160,324

Restricted stock, stock options and warrants totaling 618,155, 534,327 and 237,930 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively, were not included in the net (loss) income per common share calculation because the exercise price of these options and warrants was greater than the average market price of the Company's common stock during these periods, or the inclusion of these components would have been anti-dilutive.

s)Other (Expense) Income

Other (expense) income is comprised of the following:

	Year Ended			Year Ended			Year Ended
	February 28, 2019			February 28, 2018			February 28, 2017
Foreign currency gain (loss)	$	220		$	(8,769	)	$	(509	)
Interest income	994			210			137
Rental income	517			553			646
Miscellaneous	(1,154		)	416			(728		)
Total other, net	$	577		$	(7,590	)	$	(454	)

Interest income for the year ended February 28, 2019 includes interest earned from money market investments, which the Company increased following the sale of Hirschmann in the second quarter of Fiscal 2018. Included within the foreign currency loss for the year ended February 28, 2018 is a loss on forward contracts totaling $(6,618) incurred in conjunction with the sale of Hirschmann (see Note 2).

t)Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 360 whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to their estimated fair market value. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. See Note 1(p) for the discussion of the impairment of long-lived assets held in Venezuela for the year ended February 28, 2019. There were no impairments of long-lived assets recorded during the years ended February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017.

u)Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has a stock-based compensation plan under which employees and non-employee directors may be granted incentive stock options ("ISO's") and non-qualified stock options ("NQSO's") to purchase shares of Class A common stock. Under the plan, the exercise price of the ISO's granted to a ten percent stockholder cannot be less than 110% of the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock or greater than 110% of the market value of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of all other Options and Stock Appreciation Right ("SAR") awards may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant. If an option or SAR is granted pursuant to an assumption of, or substitution for, another option or SAR pursuant to a Corporate Transaction, and in a manner consistent with Section 409A of the Code, the exercise or strike price may be less than 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant. The plan permits for options to be exercised at various intervals as determined by the Board of Directors. However, the maximum expiration period is ten years from date of grant. The vesting requirements are determined by the Board of Directors at the time of grant.  Exercised options are issued from authorized Class A common stock.  As of February 28, 2019, approximately 1,113,000 shares were available for future grants under the terms of these plans.

Options are measured at the fair value of the award at the date of grant and are recognized as an expense over the requisite service period. Compensation expense related to stock-based awards with vesting terms are amortized using the straight-line attribution method.  

The Company granted 125,000 options in October 2014, which vested on October 16, 2015, had an exercise price equal to $7.76, $0.25 above the sales price of the Company’s stock on the day prior to the date of grant, a contractual term of 3.0 years and a grant date fair value of $2.78 per share determined based upon a Black-Scholes valuation model. In addition, the Company issued 15,000 warrants in October 2014 to purchase the Company’s common stock with the same terms as those of the options above as consideration for future legal and professional services. All unexercised options and warrants from this grant expired on October 16, 2017.

There were no stock options granted during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018, or February 28, 2017.

During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 there were no stock-based compensation costs or professional fees recorded by the Company and the Company had no unrecognized compensation costs at February 28, 2019 related to stock options and warrants.

Information regarding the Company's stock options and warrants are summarized below:

	Number of Shares		Weighted- Average Exercise Price
Outstanding and exercisable at February 28, 2017	116,250		$	7.76
Granted	—		—
Exercised	(38,750	)	7.76
Forfeited/expired	(77,500	)	7.76
Outstanding and exercisable at February 28, 2018	—		—

A restricted stock award is an award of common stock that is subject to certain restrictions during a specified period. Restricted stock awards are independent of option grants and are subject to forfeiture if employment terminates for a reason other than death, disability or retirement, prior to the release of the restrictions. Shares under restricted stock grants are not issued to the grantees before they vest. In Fiscal 2014, the Company established the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") (see Note 10(a)). During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, an additional 188,245, 74,156, and 165,619 shares of restricted stock were granted under the SERP, respectively. These shares were granted based on certain performance criteria and vest on the later of three years from the date of grant, or the grantee reaching the age of 65 years. The shares will also vest upon termination of the grantee's employment by the Company without cause, provided that the grantee, at the time of termination, has been employed by the Company for at least 10 years, or as a result of the sale of all of the issued and outstanding stock, or all, or substantially all, of the assets of the subsidiary of which the grantee serves as CEO and/or President. When vested shares are issued to the grantee, the awards will be settled in shares or in cash, at the Company's sole option. The grantees cannot transfer the rights to receive shares before the restricted shares vest. There are no market conditions inherent in the award, only an employee performance requirement, and the service requirement that the respective employee continues employment with the Company through the vesting date. The Company expenses the cost of the restricted stock awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of each employee. For these purposes, the fair market value of the restricted stock awards, $5.50, $6.52, and $2.69 for Fiscal 2019, Fiscal 2018, and Fiscal 2017, respectively, were determined based on the mean of the high and low price of the Company's common stock on the grant dates.

In conjunction with the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017 (see Note 2), all restricted shares granted to the CEO and President of Hirschmann, totaling 72,300 shares immediately vested in accordance with the SERP and were settled in cash in the amount of $582. The remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to this individual's restricted stock awards was recognized as a reduction of the gain on sale of discontinued operations in the amount of $373.

The following table summarizes the Company's restricted stock activity:

	Number of shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding at February 29, 2016	271,824		$	9.61
Granted	165,619		2.69
Forfeited	—		—
Outstanding at February 28, 2017	437,443		$	6.99
Granted	74,156		6.52
Vested and settled	(72,300	)	5.98

Outstanding at February 28, 2019	627,544		$	6.60
Vested and unissued at February 28, 2019	156,737		$	9.96

During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 the Company recorded $551, $502 and $669, respectively, in stock-based compensation related to restricted stock awards for continuing operations. As of February 28, 2019, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock awards was approximately $1,526 and will be recognized over the requisite service period of each employee.

(a) Pursuant to ASU 2016-01, adopted by the Company beginning on March 1, 2018 (see Note 1(f)), changes in fair value of the Company's investments in equity securities are recorded in earnings.

In the above table, all reclassifications of other comprehensive income (loss) for the year ended February 28, 2018 for foreign currency translation, investments and pension plan adjustments are related to the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017 (see Note 2). Within reclassifications for derivatives designated in a hedging relationship, gains totaling $71 are related to cash flow hedge activity of discontinued operations for the year ended February 28, 2018, and $384 is related to the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017. Within other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassifications for derivatives designated in a hedging relationship, $(501) is related to cash flow hedge activity of discontinued operations for the year ended February 28, 2018.

During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the Company recorded tax related to unrealized losses on investments of $0, pension plan adjustments of $21, $0 and $(106), respectively and derivatives designated in a hedging relationship of $(152), $(645) and $(97), respectively.

The other comprehensive income (loss) before reclassification of $(3,195), $18,065, $(3,194), respectively, includes the remeasurement of intercompany transactions of a long term investment nature of $(1,064), $12,488 and $(2,320), respectively, with certain subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, and $(2,131), $5,577 and $(874), respectively, from translating the financial statements of the Company's non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries into our reporting currency, which is the U.S. dollar. Intercompany loans and transactions that are of a long-term investment nature are remeasured and resulting gains and losses shall be reported in the same manner as translation adjustments. Foreign currency translation losses reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) of $10,739 for the year ended February 28, 2018 included $9,911 due to the settlement of a Euro-based loan and the recognition of the cumulative translation adjustment of $828 due to the sale of Hirschmann. Within foreign exchange losses in other comprehensive (loss) income for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the Company recorded total gains (losses) of $(2,876), $17,559, and $(3,200), respectively, related to the Euro; $(240), $250, and $176, respectively, related to the Canadian Dollar; $(18), $71 and $(142), respectively, for the Mexican Peso, as well as $(61), $185 and $(28), respectively, for various other currencies. These adjustments were caused by the strengthening/(weakening) of the U.S. Dollar against the Euro, Canadian Dollar and the Mexican Peso between 2% and 7% in Fiscal 2019, (13)% and (3)% in Fiscal 2018, and (2)% and 10% in Fiscal 2017.

w)New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. This amendment will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10 “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases” and ASU No. 2018-11 “Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements" in July 2018, ASU No. 2018-20 "Leases (Topic 842) - Narrow Scope Improvements for Lessors" in December 2018, and ASU 2019-01 "Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements" in March 2019. ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-20, and ASU 2019-01 provide certain amendments that affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2016-02. ASU 2018-11 allows all entities adopting ASU 2016-02 to choose an additional (and optional) transition method of adoption, under which an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company will adopt this guidance beginning with its first quarter ended May 31, 2019 using the modified retrospective method without the recasting of comparative periods' financial information, as permitted by the transition guidance.

The Company established a task force, comprised of multiple functional groups inside the Company, and is finalizing its implementation efforts, including final review of lease arrangements, completion of its system implementation, and updating its processes in preparation for the adoption of the new standard. Based on the preliminary work completed, the Company is considering the potential implications of the new standard in determining the discount rate to be used in valuing new and existing leases. The Company will elect the package of practical expedients, allowing no reassessment under the new standard of prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial indirect costs, and will not elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements, the latter not being applicable to the Company. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” The standard significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren’t measured at fair value through net income. The standard will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. For available-for-sale debt securities, entities will be required to record allowances rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the other-than-temporary impairment model. It also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. The amendment will affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. The amendments should be applied on either a prospective transition or modified-retrospective approach depending on the subtopic. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." Under the new guidance, if a reporting unit's carrying value amount exceeds its fair value, an entity will record an impairment charge based on that difference. The impairment charge will be limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The standard eliminates today's requirement to calculate goodwill impairment using Step 2, which calculates an impairment charge by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount. The standard does not change the guidance on completing Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairments tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities," which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better align risk management activities in financial statements and make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance in current GAAP. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for any interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this new pronouncement on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income." ASU 2018-02 was issued to address the income tax accounting treatment of the stranded tax effects within other comprehensive income due to the prohibition of backward tracing due to an income tax rate change that was initially recorded in other comprehensive income due to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") on December 22, 2017, which changed the Company's income tax rate from 35% to 21%. The amendments to the ASU changed US GAAP whereby an entity may elect to reclassify the stranded tax effect from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The amendments of the ASU may be adopted in total or in part using a full retrospective or modified retrospective method. The amendments of the ASU are effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is assessing the effect of ASU 2018-02 on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement ('Topic 820'): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement." The ASU modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, by removing certain disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy, modifying existing disclosure requirements related to measurement uncertainty and adding new disclosure requirements, such as disclosing the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and disclosing the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, "Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans."  ASU 2018-14 removes certain disclosures that are not considered cost beneficial, clarifies certain required disclosures and added additional disclosures. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The amendments in ASU 2018-14 must be applied on a retrospective basis.  The Company is currently assessing the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-14 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17: "Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities." This ASU requires entities to consider indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis, rather than as the equivalent of a direct interest in its entirety when determining whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods therein, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-17 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-18, "Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606." The ASU clarifies that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for as revenue when the collaborative arrangement participant is a customer in the context of a unit of account and precludes recognizing as revenue consideration received from a collaborative arrangement participant if the participant is not a customer. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-18 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Text Block]

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. This amendment will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10 “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases” and ASU No. 2018-11 “Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements" in July 2018, ASU No. 2018-20 "Leases (Topic 842) - Narrow Scope Improvements for Lessors" in December 2018, and ASU 2019-01 "Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements" in March 2019. ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-20, and ASU 2019-01 provide certain amendments that affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2016-02. ASU 2018-11 allows all entities adopting ASU 2016-02 to choose an additional (and optional) transition method of adoption, under which an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company will adopt this guidance beginning with its first quarter ended May 31, 2019 using the modified retrospective method without the recasting of comparative periods' financial information, as permitted by the transition guidance.

Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." Under the new guidance, if a reporting unit's carrying value amount exceeds its fair value, an entity will record an impairment charge based on that difference.

The standard does not change the guidance on completing Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairments tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities," which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better align risk management activities in financial statements and make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance in current GAAP. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for any interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this new pronouncement on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income." ASU 2018-02 was issued to address the income tax accounting treatment of the stranded tax effects within other comprehensive income due to the prohibition of backward tracing due to an income tax rate change that was initially recorded in other comprehensive income due to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") on December 22, 2017, which changed the Company's income tax rate from 35% to 21%. The amendments to the ASU changed US GAAP whereby an entity may elect to reclassify the stranded tax effect from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The amendments of the ASU may be adopted in total or in part using a full retrospective or modified retrospective method. The amendments of the ASU are effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is assessing the effect of ASU 2018-02 on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement ('Topic 820'): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement." The ASU modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, by removing certain disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy, modifying existing disclosure requirements related to measurement uncertainty and adding new disclosure requirements, such as disclosing the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and disclosing the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, "Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans."  ASU 2018-14 removes certain disclosures that are not considered cost beneficial, clarifies certain required disclosures and added additional disclosures. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The amendments in ASU 2018-14 must be applied on a retrospective basis.  The Company is currently assessing the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-14 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17: "Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities." This ASU requires entities to consider indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis, rather than as the equivalent of a direct interest in its entirety when determining whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods therein, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-17 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-18, "Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606." The ASU clarifies that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for as revenue when the collaborative arrangement participant is a customer in the context of a unit of account and precludes recognizing as revenue consideration received from a collaborative arrangement participant if the participant is not a customer. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-18 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Acquisitions and Dispositions

Acquisitions:

Rosen Electronics LLC

On April 18, 2017, Voxx acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Rosen Electronics LLC for cash consideration of $1,814. In addition, the Company agreed to pay a 2% fee related to future net sales of Rosen products for three years, which resulted in a contingent consideration of $530.

Rosen's results of operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purpose of this acquisition was to increase the Company's market share and strengthen its intellectual property related to the rear seat entertainment market.

The following summarizes the allocation of the purchase price for the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:

	April 18, 2017 (as originally reported)		Measurement Period Adjustments			April 18, 2017 (as adjusted)

Dispositions:

Hirschmann Car Communication GmbH

On August 31, 2017 (the "Closing Date"), the Company completed its sale of Hirschmann Car Communication GmbH and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Hirschmann”) to a subsidiary of TE Connectivity Ltd ("TE"). The consideration received by the Company was €148,500. The purchase price, at the exchange rate as of the close of business on the Closing Date approximated $177,000 and is subject to adjustment based upon the final working capital. VOXX International (Germany) GmbH, the Company's German wholly-owned subsidiary, was the selling entity in this transaction.

The Hirschmann subsidiary group, which was included within the Automotive segment, qualified to be presented as a discontinued operation in accordance with ASC 205-20 beginning in the Company's second quarter ending August 31, 2017. Voxx has not had any continuing involvement in the Hirschmann business subsequent to the Closing Date. Hirschmann and TE are not related parties of the Company subsequent to the deconsolidation of Hirschmann.

In order to hedge the fluctuation in the exchange rate before closing, the Company entered into forward contracts totaling €148,500, which could be settled on dates ranging from August 31, 2017 through September 6, 2017. As the sale of Hirschmann closed on August 31, 2017, the Company settled all of the forward contracts on this date. The forward contracts were not designated for hedging and a total foreign currency loss of $(6,618) was recorded when the contracts were settled, within continuing operations for the year ended February 28, 2018.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the major financial lines constituting the results of operations for discontinued operations to the net income from discontinued operations, net of tax, presented separately in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income:

	Year ended February 28, 2018			Year ended February 28, 2017

(a) Includes an allocation of consolidated interest expense and interest expense directly related to debt assumed by the buyer. The allocation of consolidated interest expense was based upon the ratio of net assets of the discontinued operations to that of the Consolidated Company.

(b) The income tax expense on discontinued operations for the year ended February 28, 2018 was positively impacted by an income tax benefit related to the partial reversal of the Company’s valuation allowance as the Company utilized a significant portion of its tax attributes to offset the U.S. tax gain related to the sale of Hirschmann.

Variable Interest Entity (Notes)

Variable Interest Entity [Abstract]

Variable Interest Entity Disclosure [Text Block]

Variable Interest Entities

A variable interest entity ("VIE") is an entity that either (i) has insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (ii) has equity investors who lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. Under ASC 810, an entity that holds a variable interest in a VIE and meets certain requirements would be considered to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and required to consolidate the VIE in its consolidated financial statements. In order to be considered the primary beneficiary of a VIE, an entity must hold a variable interest in the VIE and have both:

•the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE; and

•the right to receive benefits from, or the obligation to absorb losses of, the VIE that could be potentially significant to the VIE.

Effective September 1, 2015, Voxx acquired a majority voting interest in substantially all of the assets and certain specified liabilities of Eyelock, Inc. and Eyelock Corporation, a market leader of iris-based identity authentication solutions, through a newly-formed entity, Eyelock LLC. The Company has issued EyeLock LLC a promissory note for the purposes of repaying protective advances and funding working capital requirements of the company. The promissory note bears interest at 10% and was due on February 28, 2019. On March 19, 2019, this promissory note was amended and restated to allow EyeLock LLC to borrow up to a maximum of $49,000 and the due date was extended to August 31, 2019. The outstanding principal balance of this promissory note is convertible at the sole option of Voxx into units of EyeLock LLC. If Voxx chooses not to convert into equity, the outstanding loan principal of the amended and restated promissory note will be repaid at a multiple of 1.50 based on the repayment date. The agreement includes customary events of default and is collateralized by all of the property of EyeLock LLC.

We have determined that we hold a variable interest in EyeLock LLC as a result of:

•our majority voting interest and ownership of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of the entity; and

•the loan agreement with EyeLock LLC, which has a total outstanding balance of $44,937 as of February 28, 2019.

We concluded that we became the primary beneficiary of EyeLock LLC on September 1, 2015 in conjunction with the acquisition. This was the first date that we had the power to direct the activities of EyeLock LLC that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entity because we acquired a majority interest in substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of EyeLock Inc. and EyeLock Corporation on this date, as well as obtained a majority voting interest as a result of this transaction. Although we are considered to have control over EyeLock LLC under ASC 810, as a result of our majority ownership interest, the assets of EyeLock LLC can only be used to satisfy the obligations of EyeLock LLC. As a result of our majority ownership interest in the entity and our primary beneficiary conclusion, we consolidated EyeLock LLC in our consolidated financial statements beginning on September 1, 2015. Prior to September 1, 2015, EyeLock Inc. and EyeLock Corporation were not required to be consolidated in our consolidated financial statements, as we concluded that we were not the primary beneficiary of these entities prior to that time.

a)Domestic Bank Obligations

The Company has a senior secured credit facility ("the Credit Facility") that provides for a revolving credit facility with committed availability of up to $140,000, which may be increased, at the option of the Company, up to a maximum of $175,000, and a term loan in the amount of $15,000. The Credit Facility also includes a $15,000 sublimit for letters of credit and a $15,000 sublimit for swingline loans. The availability under the revolving credit line within the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based on eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory and certain real estate, subject to reserves as determined by the lender, and is also limited by amounts outstanding under the Florida Mortgage (see Note 7(b)). In conjunction with the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017 (see Note 2), the Company paid down substantially all of the outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility, as well as the entire outstanding balance of the term loan, which is not renewable. As of February 28, 2019, there was no balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility. The remaining availability under the revolving credit line of the Credit Facility was $86,685 as of February 28, 2019.

All amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility will mature and become due on April 26, 2021; however, it is subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Company may prepay any amounts outstanding at any time, subject to payment of certain breakage and redeployment costs relating to LIBOR Rate Loans. The commitments under the Credit Facility may be irrevocably reduced at any time, without premium or penalty as set forth in the agreement.

Generally, the Company may designate specific borrowings under the Credit Facility as either Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans, except that swingline loans may only be designated as Base Rate Loans. Loans under the Credit Facility designated as LIBOR Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate equal to the then-applicable LIBOR Rate plus a range of 1.75% - 2.25%. Loans under the Credit Facility designated as Base Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate equal to the applicable margin for Base Rate Loans of 0.75% - 1.25%, as defined in the agreement. As of February 28, 2019, the weighted average interest rate on the Credit Facility was 6.25%.

The Credit Facility requires compliance with a financial covenant calculated as of the last day of each month consisting of a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Credit Facility also contains covenants, subject to defined carveouts, that limit the ability of the loan parties and certain of their subsidiaries which are not loan parties to, among other things: (i) incur additional indebtedness; (ii) incur liens; (iii) merge, consolidate or dispose of a substantial portion of their business; (iv) transfer or dispose of assets; (v) change their name, organizational identification number, state or province of organization or organizational identity; (vi) make any material change in their nature of business; (vii) prepay or otherwise acquire indebtedness; (viii) cause any change of control; (ix) make any restricted junior payment; (x) change their fiscal year or method of accounting; (xi) make advances, loans or investments; (xii) enter into or permit any transaction with an affiliate of any borrower or any of their subsidiaries; (xiii) use proceeds for certain items; (xiv) issue or sell any of their stock; (xv) consign or sell any of their inventory on certain terms. In addition, if excess availability under the Credit Facility were to fall below certain specified levels, as defined in the agreement, the lenders would have the right to assume dominion and control over the Company's cash. As of February 28, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants included within the Credit Facility.

The obligations under the loan documents are secured by a general lien on, and security interest in, substantially all of the assets of the borrowers and certain of the guarantors, including accounts receivable, equipment, real estate, general intangibles and inventory. The Company has guaranteed the obligations of the borrowers under the Credit Facility.

The Company has deferred financing costs related to the Credit Facility and a previous amendment and modification of the Credit Facility. These deferred financing costs are included in Long-term debt on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as a contra-liability balance and are amortized through Interest and bank charges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income over the five-year term of the Credit Facility. The Company amortized $791 during both of the years ended February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 and $789 during the year ended February 28, 2017.

Charges incurred on the unused portion of the Credit Facility and its predecessor revolving credit facility during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 totaled $519, $404 and $241, respectively, and are included within Interest and Bank Charges on the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

b)Florida Mortgage

On July 6, 2015, VOXX HQ LLC, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, closed on a $9,995 industrial development revenue tax exempt bond under a loan agreement in favor of the Orange County Industrial Development Authority (the “Authority”) to finance the construction of the Company's manufacturing facility and executive offices in Lake Nona, Florida (the “Construction Loan”).  Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. ("Wells Fargo") was the purchaser of the bond and U.S. Bank National Association is the trustee under an Indenture of Trust with the Authority. Voxx borrowed the proceeds of the bond purchase from the Authority during construction as a revolving loan, which converted to a permanent mortgage upon completion of the facility in January 2016 (the "Florida Mortgage"). The Company makes principal and interest payments to Wells Fargo, which began March 1, 2016 and will continue through March of 2026. The Florida Mortgage bears interest at 70% of 1-month LIBOR plus 1.54% (4.03% at February 28, 2019) and is secured by a first mortgage on the property, a collateral assignment of leases and rents and a guaranty by the Company. The Company is in compliance with the financial covenants of the Florida Mortgage, which are as defined in the Company’s Credit Facility with Wells Fargo dated April 26, 2016.

The Company incurred debt financing costs totaling approximately $332 as a result of obtaining the Florida Mortgage, which are recorded as deferred financing costs and included in Long-term debt as a contra-liability balance on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and are being amortized through Interest and bank charges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) over the ten-year term of the Florida Mortgage. The Company amortized $31 of these costs during each of the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018, and February 28, 2017.

On July 20, 2015, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement in order to hedge interest rate exposure related to the Florida Mortgage and pays a fixed rate of 3.48% under the swap agreement (see Note 1(e)).

c)Euro Asset-Based Lending Obligation

Foreign bank obligations include a Euro Asset-Based Lending ("ABL") credit facility, which has a credit limit of €8,000, for the Company's subsidiary, VOXX Germany, which expires on July 31, 2020. The rate of interest for the ABL is the three-month Euribor plus 2.3% (1.96% at February 28, 2019). As of February 28, 2019, the amount outstanding under this facility, which is payable on demand, does not exceed the credit limit.

d)Schwaiger Mortgage

In January 2012, the Company's Schwaiger subsidiary purchased a building, entering into a mortgage note payable. The mortgage note bears interest at 3.75% and will be fully paid by December 2019. 

e)    VOXX Germany Mortgage

Included in this balance is a mortgage on the land and building housing VOXX Germany's headquarters in Pulheim, Germany, which was entered into in January 2013. The mortgage bears interest at 2.85%, payable in twenty-six quarterly installments through September 2019.

The following is a maturity table for debt and bank obligations outstanding at February 28, 2019 for each of the following fiscal years:

2020	$	10,021
2021	500
2022	500
2023	500

Thereafter	5,613
Total	$	17,634

The weighted-average interest rate on short-term debt was 2.31% for Fiscal 2019 and 2.25% for Fiscal 2018. Interest expense related to the Company's financing arrangements for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 was $951, $2,700 and $3,275, respectively, of which $0, $1,708 and $2,723 was related to the Credit Facility for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

The U.S. effects of foreign operations include differences in the statutory tax rate of the foreign countries as compared to the statutory tax rate in the U.S.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax reform commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”). Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, the effects of changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period which the new legislation is enacted. The TCJA makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, including, but not limited to: (1) a reduction in the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%; (2) changed the rules related to uses and limitations of net operating loss carryforwards created in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017; (3) permits acceleration of expensing on certain qualified property; (4) created a new limitation on deductible interest expense to 30% of tax adjusted EBITDA through 2021 and then 30% of tax adjusted EBIT thereafter; (5) eliminated the corporate alternative minimum tax; (6) provided further limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation under IRC §162(m) for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 ; (7) required a one-time transition tax related to the transition of U.S. international tax from a worldwide tax system to a territorial tax system; and (8) made additional changes to the U.S. international tax rules including imposing a minimum tax on global intangible low taxed income (“GILTI”) and other base erosion anti-abuse provisions.

In response to the TCJA, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of TCJA. The purpose of SAB 118 was to address any uncertainty or diversity of view in applying ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes in the reporting period in which the TCJA was enacted. Additionally, SAB 118 allowed for a measurement period to finalize the impacts of the TCJA, not to extend beyond one year from the date of enactment.

In connection with the Company’s initial analysis of the impact of the TCJA during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2018, the Company recorded a provisional decrease in its deferred tax assets and liabilities of $4,706 related to the remeasurement of the deferred tax assets and liabilities at the reduced U.S. federal tax rate of 21%. The Company was subject to a one-time transition tax based on the total post-1986 earnings and profits which was principally offset by the Company's tax attributes.

The Company made a policy election to treat the income tax due on U.S. inclusion of the new GILTI provisions as a period expense when incurred.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

	February 28, 2019			February 28, 2018
Deferred tax assets:
Accounts receivable	$	357		$	52
Inventory	2,374			2,011
Property, plant and equipment	1,900			479
Accruals and reserves	4,008			2,375
Deferred compensation	632			806
Warranty reserves	699			976
Unrealized gains and losses	4,179			1,335
Partnership investments	496			—
Net operating losses	12,267			13,191
Foreign tax credits	3,805			4,501
Other tax credits	4,752			3,530
Deferred tax assets before valuation allowance	35,469			29,256
Less: valuation allowance	(22,026		)	(15,881		)
Total deferred tax assets	13,443			13,375
Deferred tax liabilities:
Intangible assets	(17,145		)	(23,157		)
Partnership investments	—			(100		)
Prepaid expenses	(1,286		)	(1,995		)
Deferred financing fees	(217		)	(316		)
Total deferred tax liabilities	(18,648		)	(25,568		)
Net deferred tax liability	$	(5,205	)	$	(12,193	)

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those periods in which temporary differences become deductible and/or net operating loss carryforwards can be utilized. We consider the level of historical taxable income, scheduled reversal of temporary differences, tax planning strategies and projected future taxable income in determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted.

During Fiscal 2019, the Company maintained a valuation allowance against certain U.S. deferred tax assets including tax attributes with limited carryforward periods, capital loss attributes and certain deferred tax assets in foreign jurisdictions. The Company's valuation allowance increased by $6,164 during the year ended February 28, 2019. Any further increase or decrease in the valuation allowance could have a favorable or unfavorable impact on our income tax provision and net income in the period in which such determination is made.

Notwithstanding the U.S. taxation of the deemed repatriated foreign earnings as a result of the one-time transition tax, the Company intends to continue to invest these earnings indefinitely outside the U.S. If these future earnings are repatriated to the U.S., or if the Company determines that such earnings will be remitted in the foreseeable future, the Company may be required to accrue U.S. deferred taxes (if any) and applicable withholding taxes. It is not practicable to estimate the tax impact of the reversal of the outside basis difference, or the repatriation of cash due to the complexity of its hypothetical calculation.

The Company has U.S. federal net operating losses of $40,777, of which $17,703 expire in Fiscal 2035 through 2037 if not utilized, and $22,955 that have an indefinite carryforward period. These net operating loss carryforwards are available to offset 100% of future taxable income. The remaining $119 of U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards have an indefinite carryforward period, but are only available to offset 80% of future taxable income. The Company has capital loss carryforwards of approximately $14,904 which expire in 2024 and are only available to offset capital gain income. The Company has foreign tax credits of $3,804 which expire in tax years 2025 through 2028. The Company has research and development tax credits of $2,742, which expire in tax years 2035 through 2039. The Company has various foreign net operating loss carryforwards, state net operating loss carryforwards, and state tax credits that expire in various years and amounts through tax year 2039.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, is as follows:

Balance at February 29, 2016	$	14,472
Additions based on tax positions taken in the current and prior years	3,147
Settlements	—
Decreases based on tax positions taken in the prior years	(6,470		)
Other	(305		)
Balance at February 28, 2017	$	10,844
Additions based on tax positions taken in the current and prior years	630
Settlements	—
Decreases based on tax positions taken in the prior years	(2,945		)
Other	578
Balance at February 28, 2018	$	9,107
Additions based on tax positions taken in the current and prior years	2,125
Settlements	—
Decreases based on tax positions taken in prior years	(1,923		)
Other	(227		)
Balance at February 28, 2019	$	9,082

Of the amounts reflected in the table above at February 28, 2019, $9,082, if recognized, would reduce our effective tax rate. If recognized, $7,959 of the unrecognized tax benefits are likely to attract a full valuation allowance, thereby offsetting the favorable impact to the effective tax rate. Our unrecognized tax benefit non-current consolidated balance sheet liability, including interest and penalties, is $1,332. The Company records accrued interest and penalties related to income tax matters in the provision for income taxes in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. For the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits were $(389), $(145) and $98, respectively. The balance as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 was $210 and $602, respectively. It is reasonably possible that unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by approximately $1,500 to $2,000 within the next 12 months.

The Company, or one of its subsidiaries, files its tax returns in the U.S. and certain state and foreign income tax jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations.  The earliest years' tax returns filed by the Company that are still subject to examination by the tax authorities in the major jurisdictions are as follows:

The Board of Directors can declare cash dividends for Class A common stock in amounts equal to or greater than the cash dividends for Class B common stock. Dividends other than cash must be declared equally for both classes. Each share of Class B common stock may, at any time, be converted into one share of Class A common stock.

Stock held in treasury by the Company is accounted for using the cost method which treats stock held in treasury as a reduction to total stockholders' equity and amounted to 2,168,094 shares at both February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. The cost basis for subsequent sales of treasury shares is determined using an average cost method. During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the Company repurchased no shares. As of February 28, 2019, 1,383,271 shares of the Company's Class A common stock are authorized to be repurchased in the open market.

Other Stock and Retirement Plans

a)Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

During Fiscal 2014, the Company established a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") to provide additional retirement income to its Chairman and select executive officers. Subject to certain performance criteria, service requirements and age restrictions, employees who participate in the SERP will receive restricted stock awards. The restricted stock awards vest on the later of three years from the date of grant, or the grantee reaching the age of 65 years (see Note 1(u)).

As of February 28, 2019, approximately 1,113,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock are reserved for issuance under the Company's Restricted and Stock Option Plans.

b)Profit Sharing Plans

The Company has established two non-contributory employee profit sharing plans for the benefit of its eligible employees in the United States and Canada. The plans are administered by trustees appointed by the Company. No discretionary contributions were made during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017. Contributions required by law to be made for eligible employees in Canada were not material for all periods presented. 

c)401(k) Plans

The VOXX International Corporation 401(k) plan is for all eligible domestic employees. The Company matches a portion of the participant's contributions after three months of service under a predetermined formula based on the participant's contribution level. Shares of the Company's Common Stock are not an investment option in the 401(k) plan and the Company does not use such shares to match participants' contributions. During the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, the Company contributed, net of forfeitures, $378, $388 and $408 to the 401(k) Plan.

d)Cash Bonus Profit Sharing Plan

The Company has a Cash Bonus Profit Sharing Plan that allows it to make profit sharing contributions for the benefit of eligible employees, for any fiscal year based on a pre-determined formula on the Company's pre-tax profits. The size of the contribution is dependent upon the performance of the Company. A participant’s share of the contribution is determined pursuant to the participant’s eligible wages for the fiscal year as a percentage of total eligible wages for all participants. There were no contributions made to the plan for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017.

e)Deferred Compensation Plan

A Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) was adopted by the Company in 1999 for Vice Presidents and above. The Plan is intended to provide certain executives with supplemental retirement benefits as well as to permit the deferral of more of their compensation than they are permitted to defer under the Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plans. The Plan provides for a matching contribution equal to 25% of the employee deferrals up to $20. In Fiscal 2008, the Company suspended all matching contributions to contain operating expenses. The matching contributions have remained suspended for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017. The Plan is not intended to be a qualified plan under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. All compensation deferred under the Plan is held by the Company in an investment trust which is considered an asset of the Company.  The Company has the option of amending or terminating the Plan at any time.

The investments, which amounted to $2,858 and $3,620 at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively, are classified as long-term marketable equity securities and are included in investment securities on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and a corresponding liability is recorded, with $250 recorded in Accrued expenses, and the balance in deferred compensation which is classified as a long-term liability. Unrealized gains and losses on the marketable securities and corresponding deferred compensation liability net to zero in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

Financial Instruments

a)Off-Balance Sheet Risk

Commercial letters of credit are issued by the Company during the ordinary course of business through major domestic banks as requested by certain suppliers. The Company also issues standby letters of credit principally to secure certain bank obligations and insurance policies. The Company had no open commercial letters of credit at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018. Standby letters of credit amounted to $892 and $1,161 at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively.  The terms of these letters of credit are all less than one year. No material loss is anticipated due to nonperformance by the counter parties to these agreements. The fair value of the standby letters of credit is estimated to be the same as the contract values based on the short-term nature of the fee arrangements with the issuing banks.

At February 28, 2019, the Company had unconditional purchase obligations for inventory commitments of $56,900. These obligations are not recorded in the consolidated financial statements until commitments are fulfilled and such obligations are subject to change based on negotiations with manufacturers.

b)Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of trade receivables. The Company's customers are located principally in the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia Pacific and consist of, among others, distributors, mass merchandisers, warehouse clubs, major automobile manufacturers, and independent retailers.  The Company generally grants credit based upon analyses of customers' financial conditions and previously established buying and payment patterns. For certain customers, the Company establishes collateral rights in accounts receivable and inventory and obtains personal guarantees from certain customers based upon management's credit evaluation. Certain customers in Europe and Latin America have credit insurance equaling their credit limits.

At February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, the Company's five largest customer balances accounted for approximately 24% and 22% of accounts receivable, respectively.  No customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales from continuing operations during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 or February 28, 2017. The Company's five largest customers represented 25%, 26%, and 28% of net sales from continuing operations during the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018, and February 28, 2017, respectively.

A portion of the Company's customer base may be susceptible to downturns in the retail economy, particularly in the consumer electronics industry. Additionally, customers specializing in certain automotive sound, security and accessory products may be impacted by fluctuations in automotive sales.

Financial and Product Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations

Segment

The Company operates in three distinct segments based upon our products and our internal organizational structure. The three operating segments, which are also the Company's reportable segments, are Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories.

Our Automotive segment designs, manufactures, distributesand markets rear-seat entertainment devices, satellite radio products, automotive security, vehicle access systems, remote start systems, mobile multimedia devices, aftermarket/OE-styled radios, car link-smartphone telematics application, driver distraction products, collision avoidance systems and location-based services.

Our Premium Audio segment designs, manufactures, distributesand markets home theater systems, high-end loudspeakers, outdoor speakers, business music systems, cinema speakers, flat panel speakers, Bluetooth speakers, soundbars, headphones and DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) compatible devices.

Our Consumer Accessories segment designs, markets and distributes remote controls; wireless and Bluetooth speakers; wired and wireless headphones and ear buds; and karaoke products; action cameras; iris identification and biometric security related products; public safety solutions; infant/nursery products; activity tracking bands; healthcare wearables; smart-home products; security and monitoring products, infant and nursery products; personal sound amplifiers; and A/V connectivity, portable/home charging, reception and digital consumer products.

Each operating segment is individually reviewed and evaluated by our Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), who allocates resources and assesses performance of each segment individually. The Company's Chief Executive Officer has been identified as the CODM. The CODM evaluates performance and allocates resources based upon a number of factors, the primary profit measure being income before income taxesof each segment. Certain costs and royalty income are not allocated to the segments and are reported as Corporate/Eliminations. Costs not allocated to the segments include professional fees, public relations costs, acquisition costs and costs associated with executive and corporate management departments including salaries, benefits, depreciation, rent and insurance.

The segments share many common resources, infrastructures and assets in the normal course of business. Thus, the Company does not report assets or capital expenditures by segment to the CODM.

The accounting principles applied at the consolidated financial statement level are generally the same as those applied at the operating segment level and there are no material intersegment sales. The segments are allocated interest expense, based upon a pre-determined formula, which utilizes a percentage of each operating segment's intercompany balance, which is offset in corporate/eliminations.

Segment data from continuing operations for each of the Company's segments are presented below:

Contingencies

The Company is currently, and has in the past, been a party to various routine legal proceedings incident to the ordinary course of business. If management determines, based on the underlying facts and circumstances, that it is probable a loss will result from a litigation contingency and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, the estimated loss is accrued for. The Company does not believe that any of its current outstanding litigation matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements, individually or in the aggregate.

The products the Company sells are continually changing as a result of improved technology.  As a result, although the Company and its suppliers attempt to avoid infringing known proprietary rights, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims for alleged infringement by patent, trademark or other intellectual property owners.  Any claims relating to the infringement of third-party proprietary rights, even if not meritorious, could result in costly litigation, divert management’s attention and resources, or require the Company to either enter into royalty or license agreements which are not advantageous to the Company, or pay material amounts of damages.

On December 19, 2018, Johnson Safety Inc. (“JSI”) and Voxx International Corporation and certain subsidiaries (collectively, “Voxx”) entered into a Settlement and License Agreement (with an effective date of March 1, 2018) in which JSI sold, transferred and assigned to Voxx its patent portfolio relating to rear seat entertainment. In addition, Voxx granted JSI a royalty-free non-exclusive license, without the right to sub-license, in and to the JSI patent portfolio sold and transferred to Voxx.  In consideration of the foregoing patent purchase, Voxx previously advanced $2,600 in connection with this matter. These patents are recorded within Intangible Assets, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company performed a valuation of these intangible assets during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, concluding that the value of the patents approximated the amount paid for these assets.

(a) For the allowance for doubtful accounts, cash discount allowances, and accrued sales incentives, deductions represent currency effects, chargebacks and payments made or credits issued to customers.  For the reserve for warranties and product repair costs, deductions represent currency effects and payments for labor and parts made to service centers and vendors for the repair of units returned under warranty.

(b) Within the reserve for warranties and product repair costs, Column D includes $500 of liabilities acquired during our Rosen acquisition in Fiscal 2018 and $832 that was reclassified to the return asset established in conjunction with the implementation of ASC Topic 606 in Fiscal 2019.

(c) As a result of the implementation of ASC 606 on March 1, 2018, the accounting treatment for the reserve for sales returns was changed from a net to a gross basis. Under the previous revenue guidance, we recorded a net return reserve. Under the new guidance, we record estimated sales returns at the gross sales price with a corresponding adjustment to inventory for the estimated cost of the product. The difference between the balance at the end of the fiscal year ended February 28, 2018 and the beginning of the year ended February 28, 2019 reflects this change in accounting policy.

Segment Information

Effective in the first quarter of Fiscal 2020, the Company revised its reportable segments to better reflect the way the Company now manages its business. As a result of the Company’s efforts to re-align its businesses, streamline operations, better leverage resources, management's analysis of its business results and the decisions on resource allocations to its business segments has also changed. These changes necessitated a change in the Company's segment reporting to align with management's operational view. To reflect management's revised perspective, effective on March 1, 2019, the Company will classify its operations in the following three reportable segments: Automotive Electronics, Consumer Electronics, and Biometrics. The Consumer Electronics segment will be comprised of the Company's former Consumer Accessories and Premium Audio segments, with the exception of EyeLock LLC. The Biometrics segment consists of the Company's majority owned subsidiary, EyeLock LLC, which was previously included in the Consumer Accessories segment. This new segment was created in order to provide greater visibility regarding the operational and financial performance of EyeLock LLC and of the Company as a whole. The Company’s Automotive Electronics segment will remain unchanged.

Authorization of Stock Repurchase

In May 1999 and July 2006, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to 1,563,000 and 2,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, respectively. At February 28, 2019, the remaining authorized share repurchase was 1,383,271 shares. In April 2019, the Company was authorized by the Board of Directors to increase the number of Class A Common Stock available for repurchase in the open market to 3,000,000.

360fly, Inc.

On January 23, 2019, the Company, as Collateral Agent for the senior secured lenders of 360fly, Inc., and for itself, provided a Notice of Maturity, Default and Acceleration to 360fly, Inc., indicating that: (i) all the unpaid principal and accrued interest owed under all the outstanding notes with the Company on this date became due as a result of uncured defaults in payment under the notes; and (ii) the Company, as Collateral Agent, would proceed with foreclosure of collateral, securing the notes, with a scheduled auction date of March 5, 2019. Notice of the auction was provided through public advertisement and online posting during the month of February 2019.

On March 5, 2019, Voxx, as Collateral Agent, was the only bidder at the auction with a credit bid of $1,000 and was awarded the collateral. In late March 2019, the Company and the other secured lenders determined they would not attempt to continue the development of 360fly with the intangible assets acquired at auction. Refer to Note 1(f) for additional details.

Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block]

Description of Business

VOXX International Corporation ("Voxx," "We," "Our," "Us" or "the Company") is a leading international manufacturer and distributor in the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories industries. The Company has widely diversified interests, with more than 30 global brands that it has acquired and grown throughout the years, achieving a powerful international corporate image and creating a vehicle for each of these respective brands to emerge with its own identity. We conduct our business through sixteen wholly-owned subsidiaries: Audiovox Atlanta Corp., VOXX Electronics Corporation, VOXX Accessories Corp., VOXX German Holdings GmbH ("Voxx Germany"), Audiovox Canada Limited, Voxx Hong Kong Ltd., Audiovox International Corp., Audiovox Mexico, S. de R.L. de C.V. ("Voxx Mexico"), Code Systems, Inc., Oehlbach Kabel GmbH ("Oehlbach"), Schwaiger GmbH ("Schwaiger"), Invision Automotive Systems, Inc. ("Invision"), Klipsch Holding LLC ("Klipsch"), Omega Research and Development, LLC ("Omega"), Voxx Automotive Corp., and Audiovox Websales LLC, as well as one majority-owned subsidiary, EyeLock LLC ("EyeLock"). We market our products under the Audiovox® brand name, other brand names and licensed brands, such as 808®, Acoustic Research®, Advent®, Car Link®, Chapman®, Code-Alarm®, Discwasher®, Energy®, Heco®, Invision®, Jamo®, Klipsch®, Mac Audio^™, Magnat®, Mirage®, myris®, Oehlbach®, Omega®, Prestige®, Project Nursery®, RCA®, RCA Accessories®, Rosen®, Schwaiger®, Terk® and Voxx Automotive, as well as private labels through a large domestic and international distribution network.  We also function as an OEM ("Original Equipment Manufacturer") supplier to several customers, as well as market a number of products under exclusive distribution agreements, such as SiriusXM satellite radio products. 

On August 31, 2017, the Company completed its sale of Hirschmann Car Communication GmbH and its subsidiaries. See Note 2 for more details of this transaction. 

Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Principles of Consolidation, Reclassifications and Accounting Principles

The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes include the financial statements of VOXX International Corporation and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company follows FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 810-10-45-21 to report a non-controlling interest in the consolidated balance sheets within the equity section, separately from the Company’s retained earnings. Non-controlling interest represents the non-controlling interest holder’s proportionate share of the equity of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary, EyeLock. Non-controlling interest is adjusted for the non-controlling interest holder’s proportionate share of the earnings or losses and other comprehensive income (loss), if any, and the non-controlling interest continues to be attributed its share of losses even if that attribution results in a deficit non-controlling interest balance.

Equity investments in which the Company exercises significant influence but does not control and is not the primary beneficiary are accounted for using the equity method.  The Company's share of its equity method investee's earnings or losses is included in Other (Expense) Income in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The Company eliminates its pro rata share of gross profit on sales to its equity method investee for inventory on hand at the investee at the end of the year. Investments in which the Company does not exercise significant influence over the investee, and which do not have readily determinable fair values, are accounted for under the cost method.

The Company's consolidated financial statements for Fiscal 2017 were recast to reflect a certain business that was classified as discontinued operations during the second quarter of Fiscal 2018. See Note 2 for additional information. Earnings per share amounts for continuing and discontinued operations are computed independently. As a result, the sum of the per share amounts may not equal the total.

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses.  Such estimates include revenue recognition; accrued sales incentives; the allowance for doubtful accounts; inventory valuation; valuation of long-lived assets; valuation and impairment assessment of goodwill, trademarks and other intangible assets; warranty reserves; stock-based compensation; recoverability of deferred tax assets; and the reserve for uncertain tax positions at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Discontinued Operations, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits with banks and highly liquid money market funds with original maturities of three months or less when purchased. 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Fair Value Measurements and Derivatives

The Company applies the authoritative guidance on "Fair Value Measurements," which among other things, requires enhanced disclosures about investments that are measured and reported at fair value. This guidance establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1 - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs developed using the Company's estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use.

Derivatives, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Derivative Instruments

The Company's derivative instruments include forward foreign currency contracts utilized to hedge a portion of its foreign currency inventory purchases. The Company also has an interest rate swap agreement as of February 28, 2019 that hedges interest rate exposure related to the forecasted outstanding balance of its Florida Mortgage with monthly payments due through March 2026. The forward foreign currency derivatives qualifying for hedge accounting are designated as cash flow hedges and valued using observable forward rates for the same or similar instruments (Level 2). The duration of open forward foreign currency contracts ranges from 1 month - 12 months and are classified in the balance sheet according to their terms. Interest rate swap agreements qualifying for hedge accounting are designated as cash flow hedges and valued based on a comparison of the change in fair value of the actual swap contracts designated as the hedging instruments and the change in fair value of a hypothetical swap contract (Level 2). We calculate the fair value of interest rate swap agreements quarterly based on the quoted market price for the same or similar financial instruments. Interest rate swaps are classified in the balance sheet as either non-current assets or non-current liabilities based on the fair value of the instruments at the end of the period.

Marketable Securities, Available-for-sale Securities, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Securities

As required, in the first quarter of Fiscal 2019 the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” ("ASU 2016-01"), which requires changes to the accounting for financial instruments that affect the Company’s equity investments and the presentation and disclosure for such instruments. Marketable equity securities previously classified as available-for-sale equity investments are now measured and recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The impact of adopting ASU 2016-01 resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment of $24, which was recorded in Other (expense) income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income for the year ended February 28, 2019, rather than in retained earnings, as it was not considered material to the Company's consolidated financial statements for the period.

Mutual Funds

The Company’s mutual funds are held in connection with its deferred compensation plan. Changes in the carrying value of these securities are offset by changes in the corresponding deferred compensation liability.

Upon the adoption of ASU 2016-01, changes in fair value of equity securities are now recorded within the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income, and as such, other than temporary impairment ("OTTI") considerations are no longer made with respect to equity securities. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-01, in determining whether equity securities were other than temporarily impaired, the Company considered its intent and ability to hold a security for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of cost, along with factors including the length of time each security had been in an unrealized loss position, the extent of the decline and the near-term prospect for recovery. Additionally, on a quarterly basis, the Company was required to make a qualitative assessment of whether the investment was impaired.

Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Revenue Recognition

On March 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all the related amendments (“ASC Topic 606”), using the modified retrospective method. In addition, we elected to apply certain of the permitted practical expedients within the revenue recognition guidance and make certain accounting policy elections, including those related to significant financing components, sales taxes and shipping and handling activities. Most of the changes resulting from the adoption of ASC Topic 606 on March 1, 2018 were changes in presentation within the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Therefore, while we made adjustments to certain opening balances on our March 1, 2018 Consolidated Balance Sheet, we made no adjustment to opening Retained Earnings. We expect the impact of the adoption of ASC Topic 606 to be immaterial to our net income on an ongoing basis; however, adoption did increase the level of disclosures concerning our net sales. Results for reporting periods beginning March 1, 2018 are presented under the new guidance, while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previous guidance without revision.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The core principle of ASC Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. We apply the FASB’s guidance on revenue recognition, which requires us to recognize the amount of revenue and consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for goods and services transferred to our customers. To do this, the Company applies the five-step model prescribed by the FASB, which requires us to: (i) identify the contract with the customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

We account for a contract or purchase order when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. Revenue is recognized when control of the product passes to the customer, which is upon shipment, unless otherwise specified within the customer contract or on the purchase order as delivery, and is recognized at the amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive for the products sold, including various forms of discounts. When revenue is recorded, estimates of returns are made and recorded as a reduction of revenue. Contracts with customers are evaluated to determine if there are separate performance obligations related to timing of product shipment that will be satisfied in different accounting periods. When that is the case, revenue is deferred until each performance obligation is met. Within our Automotive segment, while the majority of the contracts we enter into with Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEM”) are long-term supply arrangements, the performance obligations are established by the enforceable contract, which is generally considered to be the purchase order. The purchase orders are of durations less than one year. As such, the Company applies the practical expedient in ASC paragraph 606-10-50-14 and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less, for which work has not yet been performed. The Company has also elected the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4, whereby the Company recognizes incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the assets the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less.

Certain taxes assessed by governmental authorities on revenue producing transactions, such as value added taxes, are excluded from revenue and recorded on a net basis.

Performance Obligations

The Company’s primary source of revenue is derived from the manufacture and distribution of premium audio, consumer accessories, and automotive products. Our consumer accessories products primarily consist of finished goods sold to retail customers, while our premium audio products primarily consist of finished goods sold to both retail and commercial customers. Our automotive products are sold both to OEM and aftermarket customers. Over fifty percent of the products sold to our automotive customers are manufactured by the Company. We recognize revenue for sales to our customers when transfer of control of the related good or service has occurred. All of our revenue was recognized under the point in time approach for the year ended February 28, 2019. Contract terms with certain of our OEM customers could result in products and services being transferred over time as a result of the customized nature of some of our products, together with contractual provisions in the customer contracts that provide us with an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date; however, under typical terms, we do not have the right to consideration until the time of shipment from our manufacturing facilities or distribution centers, or until the time of delivery to our customers. If certain contracts in the future provide the Company with this enforceable right of payment, the timing of revenue recognition from products transferred to customers over time may be slightly accelerated compared to our right to consideration at the time of shipment or delivery.

Our typical payment terms vary based on thecustomer and the type of goods and services in the contract or purchase order. The period of time between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. Amounts billed and due from our customers are classified as receivables on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. As our standard payment terms are less than one year, we have elected the practical expedient under ASC paragraph 606-10-32-18 to not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component.

Our customers take delivery of goods, and they are recognized as revenue at the time of transfer of control to the customer, which is usually at the time of shipment, unless otherwise specified in the customer contract or purchase order. This determination is based on applicable shipping terms, as well as the consideration of other indicators, including timing of when the Company has a present right to payment, when physical possession of products is transferred to customers, when the customer has the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset, and any provisions in contracts regarding customer acceptance.

While unit prices are generally fixed, we provide variable consideration for certain of our customers, typically in the form of promotional incentives at the time of sale. We utilize the most likely amount consistently to estimate the effect of uncertainty on the amount of variable consideration to which we would be entitled. The most likely amount method considers the single most likely amount from a range of possible consideration amounts. The most likely amounts are based upon the contractual terms of the incentives and historical experience with each customer. We record estimates for cash discounts, promotional rebates, and other promotional allowances in the period the related revenue is recognized (“Customer Credits”). The provision for Customer Credits is recorded as a reduction from gross sales and reserves for Customer Credits are presented within accrued sales incentives on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Actual Customer Credits have not differed materially from estimated amounts for each period presented. Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling are included in net sales and costs associated with shipping and handling are included in cost of sales. We have concluded that our estimates of variable consideration are not constrained according to the definition within the standard. Additionally, the Company applies the practical expedient in ASC paragraph 606-10-25-18B and accounts for shipping and handling activities that occur after the customer has obtained control of a good as a fulfillment activity, rather than a separate performance obligation.

With the adoption of ASC Topic 606, we reclassified certain amounts related to variable consideration. Under ASC Topic 606, we are required to present a refund liability and a return asset within the Consolidated Balance Sheet, whereas in periods prior to adoption, we presented the estimated margin impact of expected returns as a contra-asset within accounts receivable. The changes in the refund liability are reported in net sales, and the changes in the return asset are reported in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. As a result, the balance sheet presentation was adjusted beginning in Fiscal 2019. See Note 14 for return asset and refund liability balances as of February 28, 2019.

We warrant our products against certain defects in material and workmanship when used as designed, which primarily range from 30 days to 3 years. We offer limited lifetime warranties on certain products, which limit the customer’s remedy to the repair or replacement of the defective product or part for the designated lifetime of the product, or for the life of the vehicle for the original owner, if it is an automotive product. We do not sell extended warranties.

Contract Balances

Contract assets primarily relate to the Company’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date on contracts with customers. Contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional. Contract liabilities primarily relate to contracts where advance payments or deposits have been received, but performance obligations have not yet been met, and therefore, revenue has not been recognized

Receivables, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Accounts Receivable

The majority of the Company's accounts receivable are due from companies in the retail, mass merchant and OEM industries. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer's financial condition. Accounts receivable are generally due within 30 days - 60 days and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the contracted payment terms are considered past due.

Accounts receivable is comprised of the following:

	February 28, 2019		February 28, 2018
Trade accounts receivable	$	77,064	$	84,517
Less:
Allowance for doubtful accounts	2,548		2,196
Allowance for cash discounts	1,125		1,205
	$	73,391	$	81,116

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customers' current credit worthiness, as determined by a review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified.

Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Inventory

The Company values its inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value ("NRV"). NRV is defined as estimated selling prices less costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The cost of the inventory is determined primarily on an average basis with a portion valued at standard cost, which approximates actual costs on the first-in, first-out basis. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on-hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on selling prices, indications from customers based upon current price negotiations and purchase orders.  The Company's industry is characterized by rapid technological change and frequent new product introductions that could result in an increase in the amount of obsolete inventory quantities on-hand. In addition, and as necessary, specific reserves for future known or anticipated events may be established.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Property under a capital lease is stated at the present value of minimum lease payments. Major improvements and replacements that extend service lives of the assets are capitalized. Minor replacements, and routine maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and other intangible assets consist of the excess over the fair value of assets acquired (goodwill), and other intangible assets (patents, contracts, trademarks/tradenames, developed technology and customer relationships).  Values assigned to the respective assets are determined in accordance with ASC 805 "Business Combinations" ("ASC 805") and ASC 350 "Intangibles – Goodwill and Other" ("ASC 350").

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the cost of purchased businesses over the value of their underlying net assets. Generally, the primary valuation method used to determine the fair value ("FV") of acquired businesses is the Discounted Future Cash Flow Method ("DCF").  A five-year period is analyzed using a risk adjusted discount rate.

The value of potential intangible assets separate from goodwill are independently evaluated and assigned to the respective categories.  The largest categories from our recently acquired businesses are Developed Technology, Trademarks, and Customer Relationships. The FV’s of trademarks acquired are determined using the Relief from Royalty Method based on projected sales of the trademarked products.  The FV’s of customer relationships and developed technology are determined using the Multi-Period Excess Earnings Method which includes a DCF analysis, adjusted for a required return on tangible and intangible assets. The Company categorizes this fair value determination as Level 3 (unobservable) in the fair value hierarchy, as described in Note 1(e).

The guidance in ASC 350, including management’s business intent for its use; ongoing market demand for products relevant to the category and their ability to generate future cash flows; legal, regulatory or contractual provisions on its use or subsequent renewal, as applicable; and the cost to maintain or renew the rights to the assets, are considered in determining the useful life of all intangible assets.  If the Company determines that there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors which limit the useful life of the asset, an indefinite life will be assigned and evaluated for impairment as indicated below.  Goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not amortized.  Intangible assets that have a definite useful life are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life.

ASC 350 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives be tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that could more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.  Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are required to be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment if indicators of impairment exist. To determine the fair value of goodwill and intangible assets, there are many assumptions and estimates used that directly impact the results of the testing. Management has the ability to influence the outcome and ultimate results based on the assumptions and estimates chosen. If a significant change in these assumptions and/or estimates occurs, the Company could experience impairment charges, in addition to those noted below, in future periods.

Goodwill is tested using a two-step process. The first step is to identify a potential impairment, and the second step measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying amount of the reporting unit's goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value. For intangible assets with indefinite lives, primarily trademarks, the Company compared the fair value of each intangible asset with its carrying amount. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are considered impaired if the carrying value exceeds the fair value.  

Voxx's reporting units that carry goodwill are Invision, Rosen, and Klipsch. The Company has three operating segments based upon its products and internal organizational structure (see Note 13). These operating segments are the Automotive, Premium Audio and Consumer Accessories segments. The Invision and Rosen reporting units are located within the Automotive segment and the Klipsch reporting unit is located within the Pre

Revenue Recognition, Incentives [Policy Text Block]

Sales Incentives

The Company offers sales incentives to its customers in the form of (1) co-operative advertising allowances; (2) market development funds; (3) volume incentive rebates; and (4) other trade allowances.  The Company accounts for sales incentives in accordance with ASC 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606").  These sales incentives represent variable consideration provided to customers. We utilize the most likely amount consistently to estimate the effect of uncertainty on the amount of variable consideration to which we would be entitled. The most likely amount method considers the single most likely amount from a range of possible consideration amounts. The most likely amounts are based upon the contractual terms of the incentives and historical experience with each customer. Except for other trade allowances, all sales incentives require the customer to purchase the Company's products during a specified period of time. All sales incentives require customers to claim the sales incentive within a certain time period (referred to as the "claim period") and claims are settled either by the customer claiming a deduction against an outstanding account receivable or by the customer requesting a cash payout.  All costs associated with sales incentives are classified as a reduction of net sales. The following is a summary of the various sales incentive programs:

Co-operative advertising allowances are offered to customers as reimbursement towards their costs for print or media advertising in which the Company’s product is featured on its own or in conjunction with other companies' products. The amount offered is either a fixed amount or is based upon a fixed percentage of sales revenue or a fixed amount per unit sold to the customer during a specified time period.

Market development funds are offered to customers in connection with new product launches or entrance into new markets. The amount offered for new product launches is based upon a fixed amount, or percentage of sales revenue to the customer or a fixed amount per unit sold to the customer during a specified time period.

Volume incentive rebates offered to customers require minimum quantities of product to be purchased during a specified period of time. The amount offered is either based upon a fixed percentage of sales revenue to the customer or a fixed amount per unit sold to the customer. The Company makes an estimate of the ultimate amount of the rebate their customers will earn based upon past history with the customers and other facts and circumstances. The Company has the ability to estimate these volume incentive rebates, as the period of time for a particular rebate to be claimed is relatively short.  Any changes in the estimated amount of volume incentive rebates are recognized immediately using a cumulative catch-up adjustment. The Company accrues the cost of co-operative advertising allowances, volume incentive rebates and market development funds at the latter of when the customer purchases our products or when the sales incentive is offered to the customer.

Unearned sales incentives are volume incentive rebates where the customer did not purchase the required minimum quantities of product during the specified time. Volume incentive rebates are reversed into income in the period when the customer did not reach the required minimum purchases of product during the specified time. Unclaimed sales incentives are sales incentives earned by the customer, but the customer has not claimed payment within the claim period (period after program has ended). Unclaimed sales incentives are investigated in a timely manner after the end of the program and reversed if deemed appropriate. The Company believes the reversal of earned but unclaimed sales incentives upon the expiration of the claim period is a systematic, rational, consistent and conservative method of reversing unclaimed sales incentives.

Other trade allowances are additional sales incentives the Company provides to customers subsequent to the related revenue being recognized. The Company records the provision for these additional sales incentives at the latter of when the sales incentive is offered or when the related revenue is recognized. Such additional sales incentives are based upon a fixed percentage of the selling price to the customer, a fixed amount per unit, or a lump-sum amount.

The accrual balance for sales incentives at February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 was $13,574 and $14,020, respectively.  Although the Company makes its best estimate of its sales incentive liability, many factors, including significant unanticipated changes in the purchasing volume of its customers and the lack of claims made by customers, could have a significant impact on the sales incentives liability and reported operating results.

Advertising Cost, Policy, Expensed Advertising Cost [Policy Text Block]

Advertising

Excluding co-operative advertising, the Company expensed the cost of advertising, as incurred, of $5,417, $11,753 and $8,597 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively.

Research and Development Expense, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Research and Development

Expenditures for research and development are charged to expense as incurred. Such expenditures amounted to $9,169, $10,954 and $13,202 for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017, respectively, net of customer reimbursement, of $375, $106 and $0, respectively, and are included within Engineering and Technical Support expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

Standard Product Warranty, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Product Warranties and Product Repair Costs

The Company generally warranties its products against certain manufacturing and other defects. This warranty does not provide a service beyond assuring that the products comply with agreed-upon specifications and is not sold separately. The Company provides warranties for all of its products ranging primarily from 30 days to three years. The Company also provides limited lifetime warranties for certain products, which limit the end user's remedy to the repair or replacement of the defective product during its lifetime, as well as for certain vehicle security products for the life of the vehicle for the original owner. Warranty expenses are accrued at the time the related revenue is recognized, based on the Company's estimated cost to repair expected product returns for warranty matters. This liability is based primarily on historical experiences of actual warranty claims as well as current information on repair costs and contract terms with certain manufacturers. The warranty liability of $3,090 and $4,261 is recorded in Accrued Expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. In addition, the Company records a reserve for product repair costs which is based upon the quantities of defective inventory on hand and an estimate of the cost to repair such defective inventory. The reserve for product repair costs of $1,379 and $1,972 is recorded as a reduction to inventory in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018, respectively. Warranty claims and product repair costs expense relating to continuing operations for the years ended February 28, 2019, February 28, 2018 and February 28, 2017 were $6,091, $7,428 and $5,843, respectively.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]

Foreign Currency

Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries located outside the United States whose cash flows are primarily in local currencies have been translated at rates of exchange at the end of the period or historical exchange rates, as appropriate in accordance with ASC 830, "Foreign Currency Matters" ("ASC 830"). Revenues and expenses have been translated at the weighted-average rates of exchange in effect during the period.  Gains and losses resulting from translation are recorded in the cumulative foreign currency translation account in Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, we consider all positive and negative evidence including the results of recent operations, scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, future taxable income and tax planning strategies. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled (see Note 8). The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Uncertain Tax Positions

The Company adopted guidance included in ASC 740 "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740") as it relates to uncertain tax positions.  The guidance addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements.  Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only 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 position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements.

Tax interest and penalties

The Company classifies interest and penalties associated with income taxes as a component of Income Tax Expense (Benefit) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

Income Tax Uncertainties, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Uncertain Tax Positions

The Company adopted guidance included in ASC 740 "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740") as it relates to uncertain tax positions.  The guidance addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements.  Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only 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 position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements.

Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share from continuing operations, net of non-controlling interest, is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share from continuing operations reflects the potential dilution that would occur if common stock equivalent securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 360 whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to their estimated fair market value. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block]

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has a stock-based compensation plan under which employees and non-employee directors may be granted incentive stock options ("ISO's") and non-qualified stock options ("NQSO's") to purchase shares of Class A common stock. Under the plan, the exercise price of the ISO's granted to a ten percent stockholder cannot be less than 110% of the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock or greater than 110% of the market value of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of all other Options and Stock Appreciation Right ("SAR") awards may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant. If an option or SAR is granted pursuant to an assumption of, or substitution for, another option or SAR pursuant to a Corporate Transaction, and in a manner consistent with Section 409A of the Code, the exercise or strike price may be less than 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant. The plan permits for options to be exercised at various intervals as determined by the Board of Directors. However, the maximum expiration period is ten years from date of grant. The vesting requirements are determined by the Board of Directors at the time of grant.  Exercised options are issued from authorized Class A common stock.  As of February 28, 2019, approximately 1,113,000 shares were available for future grants under the terms of these plans.

Options are measured at the fair value of the award at the date of grant and are recognized as an expense over the requisite service period. Compensation expense related to stock-based awards with vesting terms are amortized using the straight-line attribution method.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Variable Interest Entity Disclosure [Text Block]

Variable Interest Entities

A variable interest entity ("VIE") is an entity that either (i) has insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (ii) has equity investors who lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. Under ASC 810, an entity that holds a variable interest in a VIE and meets certain requirements would be considered to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and required to consolidate the VIE in its consolidated financial statements. In order to be considered the primary beneficiary of a VIE, an entity must hold a variable interest in the VIE and have both:

•the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE; and

•the right to receive benefits from, or the obligation to absorb losses of, the VIE that could be potentially significant to the VIE.

Effective September 1, 2015, Voxx acquired a majority voting interest in substantially all of the assets and certain specified liabilities of Eyelock, Inc. and Eyelock Corporation, a market leader of iris-based identity authentication solutions, through a newly-formed entity, Eyelock LLC. The Company has issued EyeLock LLC a promissory note for the purposes of repaying protective advances and funding working capital requirements of the company. The promissory note bears interest at 10% and was due on February 28, 2019. On March 19, 2019, this promissory note was amended and restated to allow EyeLock LLC to borrow up to a maximum of $49,000 and the due date was extended to August 31, 2019. The outstanding principal balance of this promissory note is convertible at the sole option of Voxx into units of EyeLock LLC. If Voxx chooses not to convert into equity, the outstanding loan principal of the amended and restated promissory note will be repaid at a multiple of 1.50 based on the repayment date. The agreement includes customary events of default and is collateralized by all of the property of EyeLock LLC.

We have determined that we hold a variable interest in EyeLock LLC as a result of:

•our majority voting interest and ownership of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of the entity; and

•the loan agreement with EyeLock LLC, which has a total outstanding balance of $44,937 as of February 28, 2019.

We concluded that we became the primary beneficiary of EyeLock LLC on September 1, 2015 in conjunction with the acquisition. This was the first date that we had the power to direct the activities of EyeLock LLC that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entity because we acquired a majority interest in substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of EyeLock Inc. and EyeLock Corporation on this date, as well as obtained a majority voting interest as a result of this transaction. Although we are considered to have control over EyeLock LLC under ASC 810, as a result of our majority ownership interest, the assets of EyeLock LLC can only be used to satisfy the obligations of EyeLock LLC. As a result of our majority ownership interest in the entity and our primary beneficiary conclusion, we consolidated EyeLock LLC in our consolidated financial statements beginning on September 1, 2015. Prior to September 1, 2015, EyeLock Inc. and EyeLock Corporation were not required to be consolidated in our consolidated financial statements, as we concluded that we were not the primary beneficiary of these entities prior to that time.

Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block]

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has a stock-based compensation plan under which employees and non-employee directors may be granted incentive stock options ("ISO's") and non-qualified stock options ("NQSO's") to purchase shares of Class A common stock. Under the plan, the exercise price of the ISO's granted to a ten percent stockholder cannot be less than 110% of the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock or greater than 110% of the market value of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of all other Options and Stock Appreciation Right ("SAR") awards may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock on the date of grant. If an option or SAR is granted pursuant to an assumption of, or substitution for, another option or SAR pursuant to a Corporate Transaction, and in a manner consistent with Section 409A of the Code, the exercise or strike price may be less than 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant. The plan permits for options to be exercised at various intervals as determined by the Board of Directors. However, the maximum expiration period is ten years from date of grant. The vesting requirements are determined by the Board of Directors at the time of grant.  Exercised options are issued from authorized Class A common stock.  As of February 28, 2019, approximately 1,113,000 shares were available for future grants under the terms of these plans.

Options are measured at the fair value of the award at the date of grant and are recognized as an expense over the requisite service period. Compensation expense related to stock-based awards with vesting terms are amortized using the straight-line attribution method.

[1] Schwaiger Mortgage In January 2012, the Company's Schwaiger subsidiary purchased a building, entering into a mortgage note payable. The mortgage note bears interest at 3.75% and will be fully paid by December 2019.

[2] MortgageIncluded in this balance is a mortgage on the land and building housing VOXX Germany's headquarters in Pulheim, Germany, which was entered into in January 2013. The mortgage bears interest at 2.85%, payable in twenty-six quarterly installments through September 2019.

[3] Euro Asset-Based Lending ObligationForeign bank obligations include a Euro Asset-Based Lending ("ABL") credit facility, which has a credit limit of €8,000, for the Company's subsidiary, VOXX Germany, which expires on July 31, 2020. The rate of interest for the ABL is the three-month Euribor plus 2.3% (1.96% at February 28, 2019). As of February 28, 2019, the amount outstanding under this facility, which is payable on demand, does not exceed the credit limit.

[4] Domestic Bank ObligationsThe Company has a senior secured credit facility ("the Credit Facility") that provides for a revolving credit facility with committed availability of up to $140,000, which may be increased, at the option of the Company, up to a maximum of $175,000, and a term loan in the amount of $15,000. The Credit Facility also includes a $15,000 sublimit for letters of credit and a $15,000 sublimit for swingline loans. The availability under the revolving credit line within the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based on eligible accounts receivable, eligible inventory and certain real estate, subject to reserves as determined by the lender, and is also limited by amounts outstanding under the Florida Mortgage (see Note 7(b)). In conjunction with the sale of Hirschmann on August 31, 2017 (see Note 2), the Company paid down substantially all of the outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility, as well as the entire outstanding balance of the term loan, which is not renewable. As of February 28, 2019, there was no balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility. The remaining availability under the revolving credit line of the Credit Facility was $86,685 as of February 28, 2019.All amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility will mature and become due on April 26, 2021; however, it is subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Company may prepay any amounts outstanding at any time, subject to payment of certain breakage and redeployment costs relating to LIBOR Rate Loans. The commitments under the Credit Facility may be irrevocably reduced at any time, without premium or penalty as set forth in the agreement. Generally, the Company may designate specific borrowings under the Credit Facility as either Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans, except that swingline loans may only be designated as Base Rate Loans. Loans under the Credit Facility designated as LIBOR Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate equal to the then-applicable LIBOR Rate plus a range of 1.75% - 2.25%. Loans under the Credit Facility designated as Base Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate equal to the applicable margin for Base Rate Loans of 0.75% - 1.25%, as defined in the agreement. As of February 28, 2019, the weighted average interest rate on the Credit Facility was 6.25%.The Credit Facility requires compliance with a financial covenant calculated as of the last day of each month consisting of a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Credit Facility also contains covenants, subject to defined carveouts, that limit the ability of the loan parties and certain of their subsidiaries which are not loan parties to, among other things: (i) incur additional indebtedness; (ii) incur liens; (iii) merge, consolidate or dispose of a substantial portion of their business; (iv) transfer or dispose of assets; (v) change their name, organizational identification number, state or province of organization or organizational identity; (vi) make any material change in their nature of business; (vii) prepay or otherwise acquire indebtedness; (viii) cause any change of control; (ix) make any restricted junior payment; (x) change their fiscal year or method of accounting; (xi) make advances, loans or investments; (xii) enter into or permit any transaction with an affiliate of any borrower or any of their subsidiaries; (xiii) use proceeds for certain items; (xiv) issue or sell any of their stock; (xv) consign or sell any of their inventory on certain terms. In addition, if excess availability under the Credit Facility were to fall below certain specified levels, as defined in the agreement, the lenders would have the right to assume dominion and control over the Company's cash. As of February 28, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all covenants included within the Credit Facility.The obligations under the loan documents are secured by a general lien on, and security interest in, substantially all of the assets of the borrowers and certain of the guarantors, including accounts receivable, equipment, real estate, general intangibles and inventory. The Company has guaranteed the obligations of the borrowers under the Credit Facility.The Company has deferred financing costs related to the Credit Facility and a previous amendment and modification of the Credit Facility. These deferred financing costs are included in Long-term debt on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as a contra-liability balance and are amortized through Interest and bank charges in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income over the five-year term of the Credit Facility. The Company amortized $791 during both of the years ended February 28, 2019 and February 28, 2018 and $789 during the year ended February 28, 2017
