TANDY LEATHER FACTORY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements for Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly its financial position as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.  Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.  These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Inventory.  Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and is accounted for on the “first in, first out” method.  Based on negotiations with vendors, title generally passes to us when merchandise is put on board.  Merchandise to which we have title but have not yet received is recorded as inventory in transit.  In addition, the value of inventory is periodically reduced for slow-moving or obsolete inventory based on management’s review of items on hand compared to their estimated future demand.

The components of inventory consist of the following:

	As of
	June 30, 2016	December 31, 2015
Inventory on hand:
Finished goods held for sale	$33,047,533	$30,487,764
Raw materials and work in process	1,196,894	1,284,567
Inventory in transit	2,060,168	1,812,208
	$36,304,595	$33,584,539

Goodwill and Other Intangibles.  Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is required to be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, absent indicators of impairment during the interim.  Application of the goodwill impairment test requires exercise of judgment, including the estimation of future cash flows, determination of appropriate discount rates and other important assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.

A two-step process is used to test for goodwill impairment.  The first phase screens for impairment, while the second phase (if necessary) measures the impairment.  We have elected to perform the annual analysis during the fourth calendar quarter of each year.  As of December 31, 2015, management determined that the present value of the discounted estimated future cash flows of the stores associated with the goodwill is sufficient to support their respective goodwill balances.  No indicators of impairment were identified during the first six months of 2016.

A summary of changes in our goodwill for the periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 is as follows:

	Leather Factory	Tandy Leather	Total
Balance, January 1, 2015	$588,380	$383,406	$971,786
Acquisitions and adjustments	-	-	-
Foreign exchange gain/loss	(8,017)	-	(8,017)

Other intangibles consist of the following:

	As of June 30, 2016			As of December 31, 2015
	Gross	Accumulated Amortization	Net	Gross	Accumulated Amortization	Net
Trademarks, Copyrights	$554,369	$544,891	$9,478	$554,369	$544,504	$9,865
Non-Compete Agreements	174,665	161,915	12,750	174,665	157,248	17,417
	$729,034	$706,806	$22,228	$729,034	$701,752	$27,282

We recorded amortization expense of $5,054 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $22,556 during the first half of 2015.  All of our intangible assets, other than goodwill, are subject to amortization under U.S. GAAP.  Based on the current amount of intangible assets subject to amortization, the estimated amortization expense for each of the succeeding 5 years is as follows:

	Leather Factory	Tandy Leather	Total
2016	$54	$1,334	$1,388
2017	90	1,667	1,757
2018	-	1,417	1,417
2019	-	666	666
2020	-	666	666
Thereafter	-	6,334	6,334

Revenue Recognition.  Our sales generally occur via two methods: (1) at the counter in our stores, and (2) shipment by common carrier.  Sales at the counter are recorded and title passes as transactions occur.  Otherwise, sales are recorded and title passes when the merchandise is shipped to the customer.  Our shipping terms are FOB shipping point.

We offer an unconditional satisfaction guarantee to our customers and accept all product returns.  Net sales represent gross sales less negotiated price allowances, product returns, and allowances for defective merchandise.

Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss).Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-stockholder sources and includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by and dividends to stockholders.  Our comprehensive income (loss) consists of our net income and foreign currency translation adjustments from our international operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements.  In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, which amends ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The amendments in this ASU are intended to provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability of revenue recognition practices and improve disclosure requirements. The amendments in this accounting standard update are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-24, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date which proposed a deferral of the effective date by one year, and on July 7, 2015, the FASB decided to delay the effective date by one year. The deferral results in the new revenue standard being effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. We are therefore required to apply the new revenue guidance beginning in our 2018 interim and annual financial statements. This ASU can be adopted either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Entities reporting under U.S. GAAP are not permitted to adopt this standard earlier than the original effective date for public entities (that is, no earlier than 2017 for calendar year-end entities.) We are evaluating what impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or financial disclosures.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, which amends ASC Topic 718, “Compensation–Stock Compensation.” The guidance requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition and should not be reflected in the estimate of the grant-date fair value of the award. The guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The guidance can be applied prospectively for all awards granted or modified after the effective date or retrospectively to all awards with performance targets outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The adoption of the new requirements did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern”. This ASU codifies management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The guidance is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter, and early adoption is permitted. We do not expect that our adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, “Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual Items”. This ASU simplifies income statement classification by removing the concept of extraordinary items from U.S. GAAP. As a result, items that are both unusual and infrequent will no longer be separately reported net of tax after continuing operations. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the new requirements did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Inventory – Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”, which requires entities to measure most inventory “at the lower of cost and net realizable value (“NRV”), thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new guidance eliminates the need to determine replacement cost and evaluate whether it is above the ceiling (NRV) or below the floor (NRV less a normal profit margin). The guidance defines NRV as the “estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation”. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, which requires all deferred tax assets and liabilities to be classified as non-current on the balance sheet instead of separating deferred taxes into current and non-current amounts. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and may be adopted on either a prospective or retrospective basis. We do not expect that our adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”, a comprehensive new standard that amends various aspects of existing accounting guidance for leases, including the recognition of a right of use asset and a lease liability for leases with a duration greater than one year.  The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  Early adoption is permitted.  We have not completed our review of the new guidance; however, we anticipate that upon adoption of the standard, we will recognize additional assets and corresponding liabilities related to leases on our consolidated balance sheet.

2.   NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT

On September 18, 2015, we executed a Promissory Note and Business Loan Agreement with BOKF, NA dba Bank of Texas (“BOKF”), which provides us with a line of credit facility of up to $6,000,000.  It has a two-year term and is secured by our inventory.   The Business Loan Agreement contains covenants that we will maintain a funded debt to EBITDA ratio of no greater than 1.5 to 1, and that we will maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio greater than or equal to 1.2 to 1.  Both ratios are calculated quarterly and are based on a trailing four quarter basis.

Also on September 18, 2015, we executed a Promissory Note with BOKF, which provides us with a line of credit facility of up to $10,000,000 for the purpose of purchasing our common stock.  Under the terms of the Promissory Note, we can borrow sums up to the lesser of $10,000,000 or the purchase price of a maximum of 1.2 million shares of our common stock from the period September 18, 2015 and ending on the earlier of September 18, 2016 or the date on which the entire amount is drawn.  During this time period, we will make interest-only payments monthly. At the end of this time period, the principal balance will be rolled into a 4-year term note.  This Promissory Note is secured by a Deed of Trust on the real estate located at 1900 SE Loop 820, Fort Worth, Texas.  For the six months ended June 30, 2016, we drew approximately $3.7 million on this line of credit which was used to purchase approximately 520,500 shares of our common stock.  At June 30, 2016, the unused portion of the line of credit was approximately $2.6 million.

Amounts drawn under either Promissory Note accrue interest at the London interbank Eurodollar market rate for U.S. dollars (commonly known as “LIBOR”) plus 1.85% (2.298% and 2.263% at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively).

On July 31, 2007, we entered into a Credit Agreement and Line of Credit Note with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., pursuant to which the bank agreed to provide us with a credit facility of up to $5,500,000 to facilitate our purchase of real estate consisting of a 191,000 square foot building situated on 30 acres of land located at 1900 SE Loop 820 in Fort Worth, Texas.  Proceeds in the amount of $4,050,000 were used to fund the purchase of the property that is our corporate headquarters.  On April 30, 2008, the principal balance was rolled into a 10-year term note with an interest rate of 7.10% per annum.  We paid this note in full in September 2015 and as a result of the early payoff, we incurred a prepayment penalty in the amount of $200,000 which was included in interest expense.

On July 12, 2012, we executed a Line of Credit Note with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., pursuant to which the bank agreed to provide us with a revolving credit facility of up to $4 million, which was subsequently increased to $6 million.  The note expired on September 30, 2015.  There was no balance owed on the line of credit at the expiration date.

The amount outstanding under the above agreements consisted of the following:

	June 30, 2016	December 31, 2015
Business Loan Agreement with BOKF, NA – collateralized by real estate; payable as follows:
Line of Credit Note dated September 18, 2015, in the maximum principal amount of $10,000,000 with features as more fully described above – interest due monthly at LIBOR plus 1.85%; matures September 18, 2020	$7,371,729	$3,711,225

3.  CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS

We lease certain telecommunication equipment under a capital lease agreement.  The asset subject to the agreement totaled $227,783, of which $22,152 is included in Property and Equipment at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and $205,631 is included in Prepaid Equipment (not placed in service) as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.  Accumulated depreciation on the assets placed in service was $2,901 and $264 at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.  Amortization of the capitalized cost is charged to depreciation expense.

The amounts outstanding under capital lease obligations consisted of the following:

4. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

We have one stock option plan which permits annual stock option grants to non-employee directors with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant.  Options outstanding and exercisable were granted at a stock option price which was not less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date the option was granted and no option has a term in excess of ten years.  Under this plan, no options were awarded to directors during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 and therefore, no share based compensation expense was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.  During the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the stock option activity under our stock option plans was as follows:

	Weighted Average Exercise Price	# of shares	Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding, January 1, 2016	$5.17	68,400
Granted	-	-

Other information pertaining to option activity during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 are as follows:

	June 30, 2016	June 30, 2015
Weighted average grant-date fair value of stock options granted	N/A	N/A
Total fair value of stock options vested	N/A	N/A
Total intrinsic value of stock options exercised	N/A	$2,953

As of June 30, 2016 and 2015, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options.

We have a restricted stock plan that was adopted by our Board of Directors in January 2013 and approved by our stockholders in June 2013.  The plan reserves up to 300,000 shares of our common stock for restricted stock awards to our executive officers, non-employee directors and other key employees.  Awards granted under the plan may be stock awards or performance awards, and may be subject to a graded vesting schedule with a minimum vesting period of four years, unless otherwise determined by the committee that administers the plan.

In February 2015, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 9,343 shares each. In addition, four of our independent directors were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 1,613 shares each. The grants will vest in equal annual amounts over a four-year period.  The fair value of non-vested restricted common stock awards is the market value of our common stock on the date of grant.  Compensation costs for these awards, net of forfeitures, will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the four year vesting period.

In March 2016, our Chief Executive Officer and President were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 11,765 shares each. In addition, our five independent directors were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 2,031 shares each. The grants will vest in equal annual amounts over a four-year period.  The fair value of non-vested restricted common stock awards is the market value of our common stock on the date of grant.  Compensation costs for these awards will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the four year vesting period.

The net effect of assuming the exercise of all potentially dilutive common share equivalents, including stock options to purchase common stock at exercise prices less than the average market prices and restricted stock awards of an aggregate of 133,562 and 130,833 shares of common stock have been included in the computations of diluted EPS for the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings.  We are periodically involved in litigation that arises in the ordinary course of business and operations.  There are no such matters pending that we expect to have a material impact on our financial position and operating results.  Legal costs associated with the resolution of claims, lawsuits and other contingencies are expensed as incurred.

7. SEGMENT INFORMATION

We identify our segments based on the activities of three distinct operations:

a.   Wholesale Leathercraft, which consists of a chain of wholesale stores operating under the name, The Leather Factory, located in North America;

b.   Retail Leathercraft, which consists of a chain of retail stores operating under the name, Tandy Leather Company, located in North America; and

c.   International Leathercraft, which sells to both wholesale and retail customers.  We have four stores operating in this segment:  one in Northampton, United Kingdom; one in Manchester, United Kingdom (which opened in October 2015); one in Sydney, Australia; and one in Jerez, Spain.  These stores carry the same products as our North American stores.

Our reportable operating segments have been determined as separately identifiable business units, and we measure segment earnings as operating earnings, defined as income before interest and income taxes.

Our Business

We are the world’s largest specialty retailer and wholesale distributor of leather and leathercraft related items.  We market our products to our growing list of customers through company-owned retail and wholesale stores.  We are a Delaware corporation, and our common stock trades on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol “TLF.”  We operate our business in three segments:  Wholesale Leathercraft, which operates wholesale stores in North America under the trade name, The Leather Factory, Retail Leathercraft, which operates retail stores in North America under the trade name, Tandy Leather Company, and International Leathercraft, which operates combination retail/wholesale stores outside of North America under the trade name, Tandy Leather Factory.  See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information concerning our segments, as well as our foreign operations.

Our Wholesale Leathercraft segment operates 27 company-owned wholesale stores in 18 states and three Canadian provinces.  These stores are engaged in the wholesale distribution of leather and related items, including leatherworking tools, buckles and belt adornments, leather dyes and finishes, saddle and tack hardware, and do-it-yourself kits, to retailers, manufacturers, and end users.

Our Retail Leathercraft segment operates company-owned Tandy Leather Company retail stores in 38 states and six Canadian provinces.  Tandy Leather Company, one of the best-known suppliers of leather and related supplies used in the leathercraft industry, has been a primary leathercraft resource for decades.  Tandy Leather Company’s products include quality tools, leather, accessories, kits and teaching materials.  In 2002, we began expanding our industry presence by opening retail stores.  As of August 10, 2016, we were operating 81 Tandy Leather Company retail stores located throughout North America.

Our International Leathercraft segment operates 4 company-owned stores, all located outside of North America.  These stores operate as combination retail / wholesale stores and consist of one store in Northampton, United Kingdom; one store in Manchester, United Kingdom; one store in Sydney, Australia, and one store in Jerez, Spain.  We expect to continue opening international stores in the future, but do not intend to open any new stores in 2016.

	2016	2015	% change
Net income	$1,820,915	$1,507,896	20.8%

All segments were profitable in the second quarter of 2016.  Additional information appears below for each segment.

Wholesale Leathercraft

Our Wholesale Leathercraft operation consists of 27 wholesale stores (one store closed in April 2016).

Net sales decreased 5.1%, or approximately $329,000, for the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015 as follows:

	# Stores	Qtr Ended 06/30/16	Qtr Ended 06/30/15	$ Change	% Change
Same store sales	27	$6,022,534	$6,229,566	($207,032)	(3.3)%

Total sales		$6,064,995	$6,394,278	$(329,283)	(5.1)%

The following table presents the combined sales mix by customer categories for the quarters ended June 30:

	Quarter ended
Customer Group	06/30/16	06/30/15
RETAIL (end users, consumers, individuals)	45%	45%
INSTITUTION (prisons, prisoners, hospitals, schools, youth organizations, etc.)	4%	4%
WHOLESALE (resellers & distributors, saddle & tack shops, authorized dealers, etc.)	43%	44%
MANUFACTURERS	8%	7%
	100%	100%

Net sales decreased 5.1%, or $329,000, for the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015.  Sales were down across all customer groups.  Income from operations for Wholesale Leathercraft during the current quarter increased by 59.9% or $580,000 from the comparative 2015 quarter.

An increase in gross profit of $64,000 plus a decrease in operating expenses of $516,000 contributed to the improvement in income from operations.  Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased from 73.9% in the second quarter of 2015 to 79.0% in the second quarter of 2016, due to an increase in sales of higher margin products compared to last year.  Operating expenses decreased 13.7%, or $516,000, compared to last year’s comparable period.  The most significant expense decrease occurred in lower store and personnel relocation costs, outside services, and advertising.

Retail Leathercraft

Our Retail Leathercraft operation consisted of 81 and 82 stores at June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, respectively.  Net sales decreased 0.3% for the second quarter of 2016 over the same quarter last year.  In  March 2016, one new store was opened in Nyack, NY and one store was closed in Tucson, AZ.  In April 2016, one store was closed in Allentown, PA.  A store is categorized as “new” until it is operating for the full comparable period in the prior year.

The following table presents sales mix by customer categories for the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 for our Retail Leathercraft operation:

	Quarter ended
Customer Group	06/30/16	06/30/15
RETAIL (end users, consumers, individuals)	57%	57%
INSTITUTION (prisons, prisoners, hospitals, schools, youth organizations, etc.)	4%	4%
WHOLESALE (resellers & distributors, saddle & tack shops, authorized dealers, etc.)	36%	36%
MANUFACTURERS	3%	3%
	100%	100%

Increased sales in our retail and wholesale customer groups were offset by decreased volume from our institution and manufacturing customer groups.

Income from operations decreased $171,000, or 12.8%, from the comparative 2015 quarter due to a decrease in gross profit offset by a slight decrease in operating expenses.  Our gross profit decreased by $184,000 from the prior period and as a percentage of sales, gross profit margin declined from 60.2% in the second quarter of 2015 to 59.0% in the second quarter of 2016. The decrease in sales was primarily to wholesale customers, causing the decrease in our gross profit margin percentage.  Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were consistent at 49.6% for the second quarters of 2016 and 2015.  

International Leathercraft

International Leathercraft consists of all stores located outside of North America.  As of June 30, 2016, the segment contained four stores, two of which are located in United Kingdom (one of which opened in October 2015) and one each in Australia and Spain. This segment’s sales totaled $964,000 for the second quarter of 2016, compared to $847,000 in the second quarter of 2015, an increase of 14%.

Total Operations	$40,195,132	$5,201,681	$40,562,292	$4,722,723

Consolidated net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were down 1% compared to the same period in 2015, decreasing approximately $0.4 million.  Retail Leathercraft and International Leathercraft’s sales increases of$95,000 and $96,000, respectively, were offset with sales declines by Wholesale Leathercraft of $558,000.  Operating income on a consolidated basis for the six months ended June 30, 2016 increased 10% compared to the first half of 2015, or approximately $479,000.

The following table shows in comparative form our consolidated net income for the first half of 2016 and 2015:

	2016	2015	% change
Net income	$3,341,912	$2,952,303	13.2%

Total sales		$12,561,902	$13,119,582	$(557,680)	(4.3)%

 The following table presents the combined sales mix by customer categories for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

	Six Months Ended

WHOLESALE (resellers & distributors, saddle & tack shops, authorized dealers, etc.)	44%	43%
MANUFACTURERS	6%	7%
	100%	100%

Operating income for Wholesale Leathercraft for the first half of 2016 increased by approximately $754,000 from the comparative 2015 period, or 39%, primarily due to an improvement in gross profit and a decrease in operating expenses.  Compared to the first six months of 2015, operating expenses decreased approximately

$472,000 for the first half of 2016, decreasing to 51.8% of sales compared to 53.2% of sales in the first half of 2015.

Retail Leathercraft

Net sales were up 0.4% for the first half of 2016 over the same period last year.

	# Stores	Six Months Ended 06/30/16	# Stores	Six Months Ended 06/30/15	$ Change	% Change
Same store sales	80	$25,028,341	80	$24,958,451	$69,890	0.3%

Closed store sales	2	369,413	2	683,373	(313,960)	(45.9)%
Total sales		$25,736,527		$25,641,824	$94,703	0.4%

The following table presents sales mix by customer categories for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 for our Retail Leathercraft operation:

	Six Months Ended
Customer Group	06/30/16	06/30/15
RETAIL (end users, consumers, individuals)	58%	59%
INSTITUTION (prisons, prisoners, hospitals, schools, youth organizations, etc.)	3%	3%
WHOLESALE (resellers & distributors, saddle & tack shops, authorized dealers, etc.)	36%	35%
MANUFACTURERS	3%	3%
	100%	100%

The retail stores averaged approximately $52,500 in sales per month for the first half of 2016.  By comparison, these stores averaged $52,000 in sales per month for the first half of 2015.

Operating income for the first six months of 2016 decreased approximately $359,000 from the comparative 2015 period, decreasing as a percentage of sales from 10.7% in the first half of 2015 to 9.3% in the first half of 2016.  Gross margin decreased from 60.0% in 2015 to 58.5% in 2016 due to the customer and product mix.  The ratio of retail sales, which brings a higher margin, to non-retail sales, which brings a lower margin, can affect gross profit margin positively or negatively.  Similarly, the ratio of leather sales, which brings a lower margin, to non-leather sales, which brings a higher margin, can cause gross profit to rise or fall. During the first six months of 2016, a larger percentage of our sales were to non-retail sales, resulting in a decrease in gross profit margin compared to the first six months of 2015.  Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 49.3% for the first half of 2016, a decrease from 49.4% for the first half of 2015, as expenses grew slightly slower than sales.

International Leathercraft

International Leathercraft consists of all stores located outside of North America.  As of June 30, 2016, the segment contained four stores with two located in United Kingdom (one of which opened in October 2015) and one each in Australia and Spain. Net sales increased 5.3% for the first half of 2016 over the same period last year.

	# Stores	Six Months Ended 06/30/16	Six Months Ended 06/30/15	$ Change	% Change
Same store sales	3	$1,597,500	$1,800,886	$(203,386)	(11.3)%
New store sales	1	299,203	-	299,202	N/A
Total sales		$1,896,703	$1,800,886	$95,817	5.3%

Gross profit margin as a percentage of sales increased from 61.4% in the first half of 2015 to 69.0% in the first half of 2016.  Operating expenses totaled approximately $1.2 million in the first half of 2016, up approximately $118,000 from approximately $1.0 million in the first half of 2015.  The increase is primarily due to the new store that opened in the UK in October 2015.  Specifically, employee compensation increased by $61,000 while depreciation increased by $19,000 from the first half of 2015 to the comparable period in 2016.

Other Expenses

We paid approximately $65,000 in interest on our bank debt in the first six months of 2016, compared to approximately $79,000 in the first six months of 2015.  We recorded approximately $3,100 in interest income on our cash balances in the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to approximately $1,800 in the six months ended June 30, 2015.  We recorded income of $5,300 for currency fluctuations in the first half of 2016.  Comparatively, in the first half of 2015, we recorded income of $5,000 for currency fluctuations.

Capital Resources, Liquidity and Financial Condition

On our consolidated balance sheet, total assets increased from $64.6 million at year-end 2015 to $66.6 million at June 30, 2016.  Total stockholders’ equity was unchanged at $51.0 million at December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2016, with $3.7 million of treasury stock purchases offset by our net income earned in the first half of 2016.  Our current ratio increased from 5.7 at December 31, 2015 to 6.3 at June 30, 2016 due primarily to the reduction in accrued liabilities for bonuses paid in the first half of 2016.

As of June 30, 2016, our investment in inventory increased $2.7 million from year-end 2015.  Inventory turnover reached an annualized rate of 2.3 times during the first half of 2016, down from 2.5 times for the first half of 2015.  Inventory turnover was 2.5 times for all of 2015.  We compute our inventory turns as sales divided by average inventory.

Trade accounts receivable was approximately $552,000 at June 30, 2016, down $1,000 from $553,000 at year-end 2015.  The average days to collect accounts decreased to 36 days for the first half of 2016, a slight improvement from the average days to collect accounts in the first half of 2015 of 37 days.  We are continually monitoring our customer accounts very closely in order to minimize the risk of uncollectible accounts.

Accounts payable decreased approximately $590,000 to $1.4 million at June 30, 2016 compared to $2.0 million at year-end 2015 due to timing of payments. Accrued expenses decreased from $6.0 million at December 31, 2015 to $5.0 million at June 30, 2016.  The payment of the 2015 manager bonuses during the first half of 2016 primarily accounted for the reduction.

During the first half of 2016, cash flow used in operating activities was approximately $200,000, composed of net income of $3.3 million, plus $832,000 of depreciation and amortization, plus $256,000 of foreign currency translation, offset by the increase in inventory and decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses totaling $4.4 million.

By comparison, during the first half of 2015, cash flow provided by operating activities was approximately $5.1 million.  Net income of approximately $3.0 million, depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $800,000, and the increase in accrued expenses of $1.3 million accounted for the operating cash provided during the first half of 2015.

Cash flow used in investing activities totaled approximately $871,000 and $1.1 million in the first six months of 2016 and 2015, respectively, consisting primarily of the purchase of store fixtures, factory equipment, and computer equipment.

Cash flow used in financing activities totaled $22,000 in the first half of 2016, compared to $3.8 million in the first half of 2015.  In 2016, we purchased $3.7 million of treasury stock, funded primarily through drawdowns on our line of credit with BOKF.  We also made a scheduled payment on our capital lease obligation for $6,710.  In 2015, cash used consisted primarily of debt repayments.

We expect to fund our operating and liquidity needs as well as our store growth from a combination of current cash balances and internally generated funds.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

For disclosures about market risk affecting us, see Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.  We believe that our exposure to market risks has not changed significantly since December 31, 2015.  We expect that our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk will increase as our international presence increases.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management team, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the last day of the fiscal period covered by this report, June 30, 2016. The term disclosure controls and procedures means our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Certain Significant Accounting Policies

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2016

Notes to Financial Statements

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements for Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly its financial position as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Inventory

.

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and is accounted for on the “first in, first out” method. Based on negotiations with vendors, title generally passes to us when merchandise is put on board. Merchandise to which we have title but have not yet received is recorded as inventory in transit. In addition, the value of inventory is periodically reduced for slow-moving or obsolete inventory based on management’s review of items on hand compared to their estimated future demand.

The components of inventory consist of the following:

	As of
	June 30, 2016		December 31, 2015
Inventory on hand:
Finished goods held for sale	$	33,047,533	$	30,487,764
Raw materials and work in process		1,196,894		1,284,567
Inventory in transit		2,060,168		1,812,208
	$	36,304,595	$	33,584,539

Goodwill and Other Intangibles

.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is required to be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, absent indicators of impairment during the interim. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires exercise of judgment, including the estimation of future cash flows, determination of appropriate discount rates and other important assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.

A two-step process is used to test for goodwill impairment. The first phase screens for impairment, while the second phase (if necessary) measures the impairment. We have elected to perform the annual analysis during the fourth calendar quarter of each year. As of December 31, 2015, management determined that the present value of the discounted estimated future cash flows of the stores associated with the goodwill is sufficient to support their respective goodwill balances. No indicators of impairment were identified during the first six months of 2016.

A summary of changes in our goodwill for the periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 is as follows:

	Leather Factory			Tandy Leather		Total
Balance, January 1, 2015	$	588,380		$	383,406	$	971,786

	Gross		Accumulated Amortization		Net		Gross		Accumulated Amortization		Net
Trademarks, Copyrights	$	554,369	$	544,891	$	9,478	$	554,369	$	544,504	$	9,865
Non-Compete Agreements		174,665		161,915		12,750		174,665		157,248		17,417
	$	729,034	$	706,806	$	22,228	$	729,034	$	701,752	$	27,282

We recorded amortization expense of $5,054 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $22,556 during the first half of 2015. All of our intangible assets, other than goodwill, are subject to amortization under U.S. GAAP. Based on the current amount of intangible assets subject to amortization, the estimated amortization expense for each of the succeeding 5 years is as follows:

	Leather Factory		Tandy Leather		Total
2016	$	54	$	1,334	$	1,388
2017		90		1,667		1,757
2018		-		1,417		1,417
2019		-		666		666
2020		-		666		666
Thereafter	$	-	$	6,334	$	6,334

Revenue Recognition

.

Our sales generally occur via two methods: (1) at the counter in our stores, and (2) shipment by common carrier. Sales at the counter are recorded and title passes as transactions occur. Otherwise, sales are recorded and title passes when the merchandise is shipped to the customer. Our shipping terms are FOB shipping point.

We offer an unconditional satisfaction guarantee to our customers and accept all product returns. Net sales represent gross sales less negotiated price allowances, product returns, and allowances for defective merchandise.

Comprehensive Income (loss) and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (loss).

Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-stockholder sources and includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by and dividends to stockholders. Our comprehensive income (loss) consists of our net income and foreign currency translation adjustments from our international operations.

Recent Account

ing Pronouncements.

 In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, which amends ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The amendments in this ASU are intended to provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability of revenue recognition practices and improve disclosure requirements. The amendments in this accounting standard update are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-24, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date which proposed a deferral of the effective date by one year, and on July 7, 2015, the FASB decided to delay the effective date by one year. The deferral results in the new revenue standard being effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. We are therefore required to apply the new revenue guidance beginning in our 2018 interim and annual financial statements. This ASU can be adopted either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Entities reporting under U.S. GAAP are not permitted to adopt this standard earlier than the original effective date for public entities (that is, no earlier than 2017 for calendar year-end entities.) We are evaluating what impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or financial disclosures.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, which amends ASC Topic 718, “Compensation–Stock Compensation.” The guidance requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition and should not be reflected in the estimate of the grant-date fair value of the award. The guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The guidance can be applied prospectively for all awards granted or modified after the effective date or retrospectively to all awards with performance targets outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The adoption of the new requirements did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern”. This ASU codifies management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The guidance is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter, and early adoption is permitted. We do not expect that our adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, “Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual Items”. This ASU simplifies income statement classification by removing the concept of extraordinary items from U.S. GAAP. As a result, items that are both unusual and infrequent will no longer be separately reported net of tax after continuing operations. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the new requirements did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Inventory – Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”, which requires entities to measure most inventory “at the lower of cost and net realizable value (“NRV”), thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new guidance eliminates the need to determine replacement cost and evaluate whether it is above the ceiling (NRV) or below the floor (NRV less a normal profit margin). The guidance defines NRV as the “estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation”. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, which requires all deferred tax assets and liabilities to be classified as non-current on the balance sheet instead of separating deferred taxes into current and non-current amounts. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and may be adopted on either a prospective or retrospective basis. We do not expect that our adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”, a comprehensive new standard that amends various aspects of existing accounting guidance for leases, including the recognition of a right of use asset and a lease liability for leases with a duration greater than one year. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We have not completed our review of the new guidance; however, we anticipate that upon adoption of the standard, we will recognize additional assets and corresponding liabilities related to leases on our consolidated balance sheet.

Debt Disclosure [Text Block]

2. N OTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT

On September 18, 2015, we executed a Promissory Note and Business Loan Agreement with BOKF, NA dba Bank of Texas (“BOKF”), which provides us with a line of credit facility of up to $6,000,000. It has a two-year term and is secured by our inventory. The Business Loan Agreement contains covenants that we will maintain a funded debt to EBITDA ratio of no greater than 1.5 to 1, and that we will maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio greater than or equal to 1.2 to 1. Both ratios are calculated quarterly and are based on a trailing four quarter basis.

Also on September 18, 2015, we executed a Promissory Note with BOKF, which provides us with a line of credit facility of up to $10,000,000 for the purpose of purchasing our common stock. Under the terms of the Promissory Note, we can borrow sums up to the lesser of $10,000,000 or the purchase price of a maximum of 1.2 million shares of our common stock from the period September 18, 2015 and ending on the earlier of September 18, 2016 or the date on which the entire amount is drawn. During this time period, we will make interest only payments monthly. At the end of this time period, the principal balance will be rolled into a 4-year term note. This Promissory Note is secured by a Deed of Trust on the real estate located at 1900 SE Loop 820, Fort Worth, Texas. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, we drew approximately $3.7 million on this line of credit which was used to purchase approximately 520,500 shares of our common stock. At June 30, 2016, the unused portion of the line of credit was approximately $2.6 million.

Amounts drawn under either Promissory Note accrue interest at the London interbank Eurodollar market rate for U.S. dollars (commonly known as “LIBOR”) plus 1.85% (2.298% and 2.263% at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively).

On July 31, 2007, we entered into a Credit Agreement and Line of Credit Note with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., pursuant to which the bank agreed to provide us with a credit facility of up to $5,500,000 to facilitate our purchase of real estate consisting of a 191,000 square foot building situated on 30 acres of land located at 1900 SE Loop 820 in Fort Worth, Texas. Proceeds in the amount of $4,050,000 were used to fund the purchase of the property that is our corporate headquarters. On April 30, 2008, the principal balance was rolled into a 10-year term note with an interest rate of 7.10% per annum. We paid this note in full in September 2015 and as a result of the early payoff, we incurred a prepayment penalty in the amount of $200,000 which was included in interest expense.

On July 12, 2012, we executed a Line of Credit Note with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., pursuant to which the bank agreed to provide us with a revolving credit facility of up to $4 million, which was subsequently increased to $6 million. The note expired on September 30, 2015. There was no balance owed on the line of credit at the expiration date.

The amount outstanding under the above agreements consisted of the following:

4. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATI

ON

We have one stock option plan which permits annual stock option grants to non-employee directors with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant. Options outstanding and exercisable were granted at a stock option price which was not less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date the option was granted and no option has a term in excess of ten years. Under this plan, no options were awarded to directors during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 and therefore, no share based compensation expense was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the stock option activity under our stock option plans was as follows:

	Weighted Average Exercise Price			# of shares			Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding, January 1, 2016	$	5.17			68,400

Other information pertaining to option activity during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 are as follows:

Weighted average grant-date fair value of stock options granted		N/A		N/A
Total fair value of stock options vested		N/A		N/A
Total intrinsic value of stock options exercised		N/A	$	2,953

As of June 30, 2016 and 2015, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options.

We have a restricted stock plan that was adopted by our Board of Directors in January 2013 and approved by our stockholders in June 2013. The plan reserves up to 300,000 shares of our common stock for restricted stock awards to our executive officers, non-employee directors and other key employees. Awards granted under the plan may be stock awards or performance awards, and may be subject to a graded vesting schedule with a minimum vesting period of four years, unless otherwise determined by the committee that administers the plan.

In February 2015, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 9,343 shares each. In addition, four of our independent directors were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 1,613 shares each. The grants will vest in equal annual amounts over a four-year period. The fair value of non-vested restricted common stock awards is the market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Compensation costs for these awards, net of forfeitures, will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the four year vesting period.

In March 2016, our Chief Executive Officer and President were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 11,765 shares each. In addition, our five independent directors were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 2,031 shares each. The grants will vest in equal annual amounts over a four-year period. The fair value of non-vested restricted common stock awards is the market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Compensation costs for these awards will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the four year vesting period.

A summary of the activity for non-vested restricted common stock awards as of June 30, 2016 and 2015 is presented below:

	Shares			Award Fair Value
Balance, January 1, 2016		60,433		$	8.97

SEGMENT INFORMATION

We identify our segments based on the activities of three distinct operations:

a. Wholesale Leathercraft, which consists of a chain of wholesale stores operating under the name, The Leather Factory , located in North America;

b. Retail Leathercraft, which consists of a chain of retail stores operating under the name, Tandy Leather Company , located in North America; and

c. International Leathercraft , which sells to both wholesale and retail customers. We have four stores operating in this segment: one in Northampton, United Kingdom; one in Manchester, United Kingdom (which opened in October 2015); one in Sydney, Australia; and one in Jerez, Spain. These stores carry the same products as our North American stores.

Our reportable operating segments have been determined as separately identifiable business units, and we measure segment earnings as operating earnings, defined as income before interest and income taxes.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2016

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]

In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements for Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly its financial position as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Inventory

.

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and is accounted for on the “first in, first out” method. Based on negotiations with vendors, title generally passes to us when merchandise is put on board. Merchandise to which we have title but have not yet received is recorded as inventory in transit. In addition, the value of inventory is periodically reduced for slow-moving or obsolete inventory based on management’s review of items on hand compared to their estimated future demand.

The components of inventory consist of the following:

	As of
	June 30, 2016		December 31, 2015
Inventory on hand:
Finished goods held for sale	$	33,047,533	$	30,487,764
Raw materials and work in process		1,196,894		1,284,567

Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Goodwill and Other Intangibles

.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is required to be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, absent indicators of impairment during the interim. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires exercise of judgment, including the estimation of future cash flows, determination of appropriate discount rates and other important assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.

A two-step process is used to test for goodwill impairment. The first phase screens for impairment, while the second phase (if necessary) measures the impairment. We have elected to perform the annual analysis during the fourth calendar quarter of each year. As of December 31, 2015, management determined that the present value of the discounted estimated future cash flows of the stores associated with the goodwill is sufficient to support their respective goodwill balances. No indicators of impairment were identified during the first six months of 2016.

A summary of changes in our goodwill for the periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 is as follows:

We recorded amortization expense of $5,054 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $22,556 during the first half of 2015. All of our intangible assets, other than goodwill, are subject to amortization under U.S. GAAP. Based on the current amount of intangible assets subject to amortization, the estimated amortization expense for each of the succeeding 5 years is as follows:

Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Revenue Recognition

.

Our sales generally occur via two methods: (1) at the counter in our stores, and (2) shipment by common carrier. Sales at the counter are recorded and title passes as transactions occur. Otherwise, sales are recorded and title passes when the merchandise is shipped to the customer. Our shipping terms are FOB shipping point.

We offer an unconditional satisfaction guarantee to our customers and accept all product returns. Net sales represent gross sales less negotiated price allowances, product returns, and allowances for defective merchandise.

Comprehensive Income, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Comprehensive Income (loss) and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (loss).

Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-stockholder sources and includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by and dividends to stockholders. Our comprehensive income (loss) consists of our net income and foreign currency translation adjustments from our international operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Recent Account

ing Pronouncements.

 In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, which amends ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The amendments in this ASU are intended to provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability of revenue recognition practices and improve disclosure requirements. The amendments in this accounting standard update are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-24, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date which proposed a deferral of the effective date by one year, and on July 7, 2015, the FASB decided to delay the effective date by one year. The deferral results in the new revenue standard being effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. We are therefore required to apply the new revenue guidance beginning in our 2018 interim and annual financial statements. This ASU can be adopted either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Entities reporting under U.S. GAAP are not permitted to adopt this standard earlier than the original effective date for public entities (that is, no earlier than 2017 for calendar year-end entities.) We are evaluating what impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or financial disclosures.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, which amends ASC Topic 718, “Compensation–Stock Compensation.” The guidance requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition and should not be reflected in the estimate of the grant-date fair value of the award. The guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The guidance can be applied prospectively for all awards granted or modified after the effective date or retrospectively to all awards with performance targets outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The adoption of the new requirements did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern”. This ASU codifies management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The guidance is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter, and early adoption is permitted. We do not expect that our adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, “Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual Items”. This ASU simplifies income statement classification by removing the concept of extraordinary items from U.S. GAAP. As a result, items that are both unusual and infrequent will no longer be separately reported net of tax after continuing operations. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the new requirements did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Inventory – Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”, which requires entities to measure most inventory “at the lower of cost and net realizable value (“NRV”), thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new guidance eliminates the need to determine replacement cost and evaluate whether it is above the ceiling (NRV) or below the floor (NRV less a normal profit margin). The guidance defines NRV as the “estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation”. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, which requires all deferred tax assets and liabilities to be classified as non-current on the balance sheet instead of separating deferred taxes into current and non-current amounts. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and may be adopted on either a prospective or retrospective basis. We do not expect that our adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”, a comprehensive new standard that amends various aspects of existing accounting guidance for leases, including the recognition of a right of use asset and a lease liability for leases with a duration greater than one year. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We have not completed our review of the new guidance; however, we anticipate that upon adoption of the standard, we will recognize additional assets and corresponding liabilities related to leases on our consolidated balance sheet.
