Synalloy Corporation
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
March 31, 2018
Unless indicated otherwise, the terms "Company," "we," "us," and "our" refer to Synalloy Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. Operating results for the three-month period ended
March 31, 2018
, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2018
. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2017
.
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09,
"Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)
". Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition” (Topic 605), and requires entities to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted Topic 606 as of January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method. The adoption of this Topic did not have an effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. See Note 3 for further details.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, "
Financial Instruments (Topic 825)",
to address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The standard is effective for all public companies for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The standard requires equity investments (except for those under the equity method of accounting) to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in net income. The amendments in the update supersede the guidance to classify equity securities with readily determinable fair values into different categories, and require equity securities to be measured at fair value with changes recognized in net income as opposed to other comprehensive income. The Company has adopted ASU 2016-01 effective January 1, 2018 and the effects of this standard are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. The Company applied the amendments by means of a cumulative effective adjustment to the balance sheet as of January 1, 2018, which resulted in a reclassification of
$10,864
from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss to Retained Earnings.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “
Leases (Topic 842)
,” to increase the transparency and comparability of lease recognition and disclosure. The update establishes a right of use ("ROU") model which requires lessees to recognize lease contracts with a term greater than one year on the balance sheet as ROU assets and lease liabilities. Leases will be classified as either financing or operating which will determine expense classification and recognition. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and must be applied using the modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. While the Company expects ASU 2016-02 to add material ROU assets and lease liabilities to the consolidated balance sheets related to its current land and building operating leases, it is evaluating other effects that the new standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01 “
Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business.
” ASU 2017-01 provides guidance to evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. If substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single asset or a group of similar assets, the assets acquired (or disposed of) are not considered a business. We adopted ASU 2017-01 as of January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this Topic did not have an effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2018.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09,
"Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting,"
which amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements, provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply

modification accounting under ASC 718. ASU 2017-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. We adopted ASU 2017-09 as of January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this Topic did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2018.
Adoption of ASC Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers"
On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Topic 606 using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 605. The Company operates as a manufacturer of various products, and revenue is comprised of short-term contracts with point-in-time performance obligations. As a result, the Company did not identify any differences in its recognition of revenue between Topic 606 and Topic 605. Accordingly, there was no adjustment required to opening retained earnings for the cumulative impact of adopting Topic 606 and no impact to revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 as a result of applying Topic 606.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers upon shipment, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
The following table presents the Company's revenues, disaggregated by product group. Substantially all of the Company's revenues are derived from contracts with customers where performance obligations are satisfied at a point-in-time.

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations
Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, revenue for each performance obligation is based on its standalone selling price and revenue is recognized as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company generally determines standalone selling prices based on the prices charged to customers using the adjusted market assessment approach or expected cost plus margin.
Deferred Revenues
Deferred revenues are recorded when cash payments are received in advance of satisfying the performance obligation, including amounts which are refundable. The deferred revenue balance increased
$363,626
during the first quarter of 2018 to
$548,499
as of March 31, 2018 due to receiving
$933,622
in advance of satisfying our performance obligations during the quarter, offset by
$569,996
of revenue that was recognized during the quarter after satisfying the performance obligations that were included in the beginning deferred revenue balance or received during the current period. Deferred revenues are included in "Accrued Expenses" on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Our payment terms vary by the financial strength or location of our customer and the products offered. The length of time between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. For certain customers, payment is required before the products or services are delivered to the customer.

Practical Expedients and Elections
When shipping and handling activities are performed after a customer obtains control of goods, the Company reflects shipping and handling activities as part of satisfying the obligation of providing goods to the customer.
In some instances, the Company withholds various states' sales taxes upon shipments into those states. Accordingly, management makes an accounting policy election to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected from a customer.
The Company expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been
one year
or less. These costs are recorded within selling, general, and administrative expenses.
The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations since contracts are expected to be completed within one year.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined by either specific identification or weighted average methods. The components of inventories are as follows:

On February 7, 2018, the Compensation & Long-Term Incentive Committee (the "Committee") of the Company's Board of Directors approved stock grants under the Company's 2015 Stock Awards Plan to certain management employees of the Company where
65,527
shares with a market price of
$12.47
per share were granted under the Plan. These stock awards vest in either
20 percent
or
33 percent
increments annually on a cumulative basis, beginning
one year
after the date of grant. In order for the awards to vest, the employee must be in the continuous employment of the Company since the date of the award. Any portion of an award that has not vested is forfeited upon termination of employment. The Company may terminate any portion of the award that has not vested upon an employee's failure to comply with all conditions of the award or the 2015 Stock Awards Plan. An employee is not entitled to any voting rights with respect to any shares not yet vested, and the shares are not transferable.
The diluted earnings per share calculations exclude the effect of potentially dilutive shares when the inclusion of those shares in the calculation would have an anti-dilutive effect. For the three months ended
March 31, 2018
and
March 31, 2017
the Company had weighted average shares of common stock, in the form of stock grants and options, of
117,879
and
227,643
, respectively, which were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation as their effect was anti-dilutive.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal examinations for years before 2014 or state income tax examinations for years before 2013. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company did not identify nor reserve for any unrecognized tax benefits.
The effective tax rate was
22 percent
for the three-month period ended
March 31, 2018
. The 2018 effective tax rate is higher than the statutory rate of
21 percent
due to state tax expense, net of the federal benefit. The effective tax rate was
30 percent
for the three-month period ended
March 31, 2017
. The prior year effective tax rate was different than the
34 percent
statutory rate primarily due to state tax expense, net of federal benefit and other permanent differences, including the manufacturer's exemption.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“The Act”) was signed into law by the President of the United States, enacting significant changes to the Internal Revenue Code effective January 1, 2018. The Act included a number of provisions including, but not limited to, a permanent reduction of the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, eliminating the deduction for domestic production activities, limiting the tax deductibility of interest expense, accelerating the expensing of certain business assets and reducing the amount of executive pay that could qualify as a tax deduction. Many effects of The Act are international in nature, such as the one-time transition tax, base erosion anti-abuse tax and the global intangible low-taxed income tax, and thus would not pertain to the Company as it has no international operations.
In December 2017, the Company recorded
$381,000
of income tax benefit related to adopting various provisions of the Act. Under Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) our income tax benefit is provisional in nature and is subject to further clarification of the new law, including but not limited to U.S. state conformity that cannot be estimated at this time and measurement of underlying tax basis in certain business assets. The ultimate impact may differ from provisional amounts due to, among other things, additional analysis, changes in interpretations and assumptions the Company has made, and additional regulatory guidance that may be issued. Further guidance may be forthcoming from federal and state agencies, which could result in additional adjustments. The accounting is expected to be completed no later than the filing of the 2017 U.S. corporate income tax return in 2018.

The Company makes estimates of fair value in accounting for certain transactions, in testing and measuring impairment and in providing disclosures of fair value in its condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company determines the fair values of its financial instruments for disclosure purposes by maximizing the use of observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. Fair value disclosures for assets and liabilities are grouped into three levels. The levels prioritize the inputs used to measure the fair value of the assets or liabilities. These levels are:
Level 1
- Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
10
Synalloy Corporation
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
March 31, 2018
Level 2
- Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for assets and liabilities, either directly or indirectly. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are less active.
Level 3
- Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity for assets or liabilities and includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.
The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, derivative instruments, accounts payable, earn-out liabilities, revolving line of credit and equity investments. For short-term instruments, other than those required to be reported at fair value on a recurring basis and for which additional disclosures are included below, management concluded the historical carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization. Therefore, as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the carrying amount for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and the Company's revolving line of credit, which is based on a variable interest rate, approximates their fair value.
During the first quarter of 2018, the Company recorded a loss on the investment in equity securities of
$88,296
which is included in "Other expense (income)" on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The fair value of equity securities held by the Company as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was
$640,000
and
$537,233
, respectively, and is included in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The equity securities are classified as a Level 1 financial instrument.
The Company has
one
interest rate swap contract, which is classified as a Level 2 financial instrument as it is not actively traded and is valued using pricing models that use observable market inputs. The fair value of the contract was an asset of
$201,185
and
$127,981
at
March 31, 2018
and
December 31, 2017
, respectively. The interest rate swap was priced using discounted cash flow techniques. Changes in its fair value were recorded to other income (expense) with corresponding offsetting entries to current assets or liabilities, as appropriate. Significant inputs to the discounted cash flow model include projected future cash flows based on projected one-month
LIBOR
and the average margin for companies with similar credit ratings and similar maturities. It is classified as Level 2 as it is not actively traded and is valued using pricing models that use observable market inputs.
To manage the impact on earnings of fluctuating nickel prices, the Company enters into six-month forward option contracts, which are classified as Level 2. At March 31, 2018, the Company had contracts in place with notional quantities totaling approximately
385,901
pounds with a strike price of
$4.05
per pound. At December 31, 2017, the Company had contracts in place with notional quantities totaling approximately
1,351,494
pounds with strike prices ranging from
$3.75
to
$4.64
per pound. The option contract in place at March 31, 2018 had a fair value of
$0
while the fair value of the option contracts at December 31, 2017 was an asset of
$9,027
. The fair value of the contracts was priced using discounted cash flows techniques based on forward curves and volatility levels by asset class determined on the basis of observable market inputs, when available. Changes in their fair value were recorded to cost of goods sold with corresponding offsetting entries to other current assets. The fair value of the forward option contracts approximates their carrying value.
The fair value of contingent consideration liabilities ("earn-out") resulting from the Bristol Metals-Munhall acquisition discussed in Note 10 is classified as Level 3. The fair value was estimated by applying the Monte Carlo Simulation approach using management's projection of pounds shipped and price per unit. Each quarter-end the Company re-evaluates its assumptions and adjusts to the updated fair value.
The following table presents a summary of changes in fair value of the Company's earn-out liability during the period:

The following is management's discussion of certain significant factors that affected the Company during the three-month period ended
March 31, 2018
.
Consolidated net sales for the
first
quarter of
2018
was
$58,481,000
, an increase of
$16,277,000
or
39 percent
when compared to net sales for the
first
quarter of
2017
of
$42,204,000
. For the
first
quarter of

The overall Metals Segment growth was achieved despite customer requests for delayed shipment of $1,330,000 in storage tanks and vessels, that moved the volume and profits into April. All tanks have been shipped as of the date of this release, bolstering an already strong outlook for second quarter Metals Segment results.
The backlog for Bristol Metals as as of March 31, 2018
was $34,353,000, while Palmer’s backlog totaled $18,191,000.
The Metals Segment's operating income improved $4,452,000 to $6,017,000 for the first quarter of 2018 compared to $1,565,000 for the first quarter of 2017. The change in operating results was affected by the following factors:
|
1.
|
The addition of Bristol Metals-Munhall operations as noted above.
|
|
2.
|
Nickel prices and resulting surcharges for 304 and 316 alloys continued to rise during the first quarter of 2018, with surcharges for both alloys increasing by $0.03 and $0.14 per pound, respectively.
|
|
3.
|
Year over year improvements in volume, pricing and product mix combined for a 31 percent improvement in gross profit margins in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the same quarter in 2017.
|
|
4.
|
Seamless carbon pipe and tube showed significant improvement with a 47 percent increase in sales driving an almost ten-fold improvement in operating profit over the prior year.

Specialty Chemicals Segment
Net sales for the Specialty Chemicals Segment in the first quarter of 2018 was $12,988,000, representing a $495,000 or four percent increase from the same quarter of 2017. This increase in sales was comprised of a 15 percent decrease in pounds sold and a 19 percent increase in average selling price. Net sales were impacted during the first quarter of 2018 primarily from the initial ramp up of four significant customers: a new fire retardant customer at CRI Tolling, two new oil and gas customers at Manufacturers Chemicals and a new product launch from an existing customer at Manufacturers Chemicals.
Operating income for the Specialty Chemicals Segment for the first quarter of 2018 was $863,000, approximately $58,000 ahead of plan expectations for the quarter. The result was approximately $644,000 lower than the first quarter of 2017. The primary difference in operating profit performance compared to prior year first quarter is the relative product mix experienced. The segment historically experiences operating profit in a range between five percent to 12 percent. In 2017, the first quarter represented the higher end of that range at 12 percent, with the full year averaging to nine percent, close to the average for the past four years. In the first quarter of 2018, operating profit was six percent of sales, close to the low end of historical quarterly performances; however, annual performance is expected to be at approximately 10 percent, or one percent higher than previous historical averages, primarily related to higher volumes on a substantially fixed operating cost base.
Other Items
Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $5,856,000, or 10 percent of sales, from $5,889,000, 14 percent of sales, for the first quarter of 2018 compared to the first quarter of 2017. The year over year change related to the following:

Higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a result of including Bristol Metals-Munhall's selling, general and administrative expenses of $480,000 in the first quarter of 2018, as compared to $76,000 in the first quarter of 2017.

A gain of $313,000 related to a legal settlement that was executed on February 7, 2018.

Acquisition costs were $446,000 for the first quarter of 2017 ($358,000 in unallocated SG&A and $88,000 in Metals Segment cost of sales), resulting from costs associated with the Bristol Metals-Munhall acquisition. There were no significant acquisition costs during the first quarter of 2018.
Interest expense was $314,000 and $180,000 for the first quarters of 2018 and 2017, respectively, as the average debt outstanding was higher in the first quarter of 2018 as additional borrowings were required to support working capital requirements associated with increased business activity along with the acquisition of Bristol Metals-Munhall on February 28, 2017, which resulted in a partial quarter of interest expense in the prior year.
Due to higher projected sales of small diameter stainless-steel pipe and tube (outside diameter of ten inches or less) for the remainder of the measurement period, the earn-out liability resulting from the acquisition of Bristol Metals-Munhall was increased by $154,000 for the first quarter 2018.
The effective tax rate was 21.6 percent for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. The 2018 effective tax rate was higher than the federal statutory rate of 21 percent due to state tax expense, net of the federal benefit. The effective tax rate was 30.0 percent for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017. The 2017 effective tax rate was different than the 34 percent federal statutory rate primarily due to state tax expense, net of the federal benefit and other permanent differences, including the manufacturer's exemption.
The Company's cash balance increased $4,000 to $19,000 as of March 31, 2018 compared to $15,000 at December 31, 2017. Fluctuations during the period were comprised of the following:
|
1.
|
Net accounts receivable increased $6,084,000 at March 31, 2018 when compared to the prior year end, which resulted from a 17 percent increase in sales for the last two months of the first quarter 2018 compared to the last two months of the fourth quarter 2017. Also, days sales outstanding, calculated using a three-month average basis, decreased from 51 days outstanding at the end of December 2017 to 47 days at the end of the first quarter 2018;
|
|
2.
|
Net inventories increased $10,724,000 at March 31, 2018 as compared to year-end 2017. The increase, which was entirely related to the Metals Segment, resulted from higher stainless steel surcharges for the quarter, replenishing seamless carbon steel pipe and tube inventory levels and building higher cost special alloy inventory which is scheduled to ship in the second quarter of 2018. Inventory turns decreased from 2.51 turns at December 31, 2017, calculated on a three-month average basis, to 2.44 turns at March 31, 2018;
|
|
3.
|
Accounts payable increased $5,160,00 as of March 31, 2018 from the prior year-end. The significant portion of the increase was for Bristol Metals-Munhall (up $4,164,000) as a greater amount of inventory was purchased during

the first quarter of 2018 to support a significant order of special alloy pipe due to ship in the second quarter 2018. Accounts payable days outstanding were approximately 50 days at March 31, 2018 compared to 60 days at December 31, 2017;
|
4.
|
The Company purchased approximately 105,000 shares of a potential acquisition target for $191,000 during the first quarter of 2018. These equity securities were acquired via open market trading; and
|
|
5.
|
Capital expenditures for 2018 were $1,855,000.
|
The Company drew $8,361,000 against its line of credit during the first three months of 2018 and had $34,274,000 of borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2018. Covenants under the Credit Agreement include maintaining a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a limitation on the Company’s maximum amount of capital expenditures per year, which is in line with currently projected needs. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of March 31, 2018.
Outlook
While the first quarter results were exceptionally good, there remains considerable upside to the Company's performance. In the Metals Segment, we have yet to see the level of project activity that we enjoyed in 2014 and the associated spending on special alloys and larger OD product sizes. In recent years, Bristol Metals has invested heavily in expanding its total production capacity. Just this month, we acquired a high frequency laser mill which will be installed at Bristol Metals-Munhall in the third quarter. While we anticipate total shipments greater than 65 million pounds in 2018 at our Bristol Metals unit, our total capacity is now approaching 110 million pounds annually, allowing us to further support our distribution customers and fill any voids that may develop from fewer imports. For the Specialty Chemicals Segment, new product additions, like the one recently announced, should drive meaningful organic growth in the current and subsequent years. On the acquisition front, we have identified a high impact "bolt-on" that offers strong earnings potential at a reasonable price. We expect to have more to share regarding this opportunity before the end of the current quarter.
Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
This quarterly report includes and incorporates by reference "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. All statements that are not historical facts are "forward-looking statements." The words "estimate," "project," "intend," "expect," "believe," "should," "anticipate," "hope," "optimistic," "plan," "outlook," "should," "could," "may" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including without limitation those identified below, which could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The following factors could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated: adverse economic conditions; the impact of competitive products and pricing; product demand and acceptance risks; raw material and other increased costs; raw materials availability; employee relations; ability to maintain workforce by hiring trained employees; labor efficiencies; customer delays or difficulties in the production of products; new fracking regulations; a prolonged decrease in oil and nickel prices; unforeseen delays in completing the integrations of acquisitions; risks associated with mergers, acquisitions, dispositions and other expansion activities; financial stability of our customers; environmental issues; unavailability of debt financing on acceptable terms and exposure to increased market interest rate risk; inability to comply with covenants and ratios required by our debt financing arrangements; ability to weather an economic downturn; loss of consumer or investor confidence and other risks detailed from time-to-time in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. The Company assumes no obligation to update the information included in this report.
Information about the Company's exposure to market risk was disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2018. There have been no material quantitative or qualitative changes in market risk exposure since the date of that filing.
Based on the evaluation required by 17 C.F.R. Section 240.13a-15(b) or 240.15d-15(b) of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in 17 C.F.R. Sections 240.13a-15(e) and 240.15d-15(e)), the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that that such controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, identified no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's control over financial reporting.
15
It is not unusual for us and our subsidiaries to be involved in various unresolved legal actions, administrative proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business involving, among other things, product liability, commercial, employment, workers' compensation, and environmental matters. We establish reserves in a manner that is consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for costs associated with such matters when a liability is probable and those costs are capable of being reasonably estimated. We cannot predict with any certainty the outcome of these unresolved legal actions or the range of possible loss or recovery. Based on current information, however, we believe that the eventual outcome of these unresolved legal actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. There were no material changes in our Legal Proceedings, as discussed in Part I, Item 3 in the Company's Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 2017.
There were no material changes in our assessment of risk factors as discussed in Part I, Item 1A in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.
