1.	Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America are not required in these interim financial statements and have been condensed or omitted. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

As previously disclosed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year 2015, the Company announced a restructuring of its North American Technology group (“NATG”) business in March 2015 and closed 31 retail stores and a warehouse during the second quarter of fiscal 2015. On December 1, 2015, the Company sold the NATG business and began the wind down of its remaining NATG operations. The Company followed the guidance under Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which required disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. Under ASU 2014-08 in order for a disposal to qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements, the disposal must be a “strategic shift” with a major impact for the reporting entity. If the entity meets this threshold, only the components that were in operation at the time of disposal are presented as discontinued operations. The sale of the NATG business in December 2015 had a major impact on the Company and therefore met the strategic shift criteria. The NATG components in operation at the time of the sale were the B2B and Ecommerce businesses and three remaining retail stores. Accordingly, these components and the results of operations have been adjusted in the accompanying financial statements to reflect their presentation in discontinued operations. The 31 retail stores and warehouse which were closed in 2015 and prior to the PCM transaction, along with allocations of common distribution and back office costs, did not meet the strategic shift criteria and accordingly, are presented as part of the Company’s continuing operations for all periods; other NATG operations that were discontinued by the Company in previous periods are also presented as continued operations for all periods. As a result, the operations of NATG are now reported both within continuing operations and as discontinued operations. During December 2015 and the first quarter of 2016, the Company continued the exit of the NATG business as we sold all remaining inventory and closed all remaining retail stores and warehouse.

The Company early adopted ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes in the fourth quarter of 2015 on a retrospective basis. This ASU simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by eliminating the separate classification of deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in the consolidated balance sheet. The amendments in this update require that all deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheet.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2016 and the results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 and changes in shareholders’ equity for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The December 31, 2015 condensed consolidated balance sheet has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2015 and for the year then ended included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. The results for the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.
