1.Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosure required for complete financial statements are not included herein. It is recommended that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes of Psychemedics Corporation (“the Company,” “our Company,” “our” or “we”) as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed on March 9, 2012. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012, or any other period.

 

2.Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist of cash savings and a bank money market account.

 

3.Stock-Based Compensation

 

2006 Equity Incentive Plan

The Company’s 2006 Incentive Plan provides for the grant or issuance to officers, directors, employees and consultants of options with terms of up to ten years, restricted stock, stock unit awards (SUA’s), issuances of stock bonuses or other stock-based awards, covering up to 500,000 shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2012, 220,069 shares remained available for future grant under the 2006 Incentive Plan.

 

The Company granted stock unit awards (SUAs) covering 65,000 shares of common stock on May 22, 2012. There were no previously granted awards that terminated during the first of 2012. The SUAs vest over a period of two years for non-employee board members and four years for employees and are convertible into an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s common stock provided that the director or employee receiving the award remains continuously employed throughout the vesting period. The Company records compensation expense related to the SUAs on a straight-line basis over the vesting term of the SUAs. Employees are issued shares upon vesting, net of tax withholdings, unless the employee chooses to receive all shares and pay for the associated employment taxes. No other types of equity-based awards have been granted or issued under the 2006 Incentive Plan.

3.Stock-Based Compensation (continued)

 

All Stock-Based Compensation Plans

As of June 30, 2012, a total of 557,382 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the various stock option and stock-based plans. As of June 30, 2012, the unamortized fair value of awards relating to outstanding SUAs and options was $1.2 million, which is expected to be amortized over a weighted average period of 3.2 years.

 

4.Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Share

 

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. The number of dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period has been determined in accordance with the treasury-stock method. Common equivalent shares consist of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options and common stock issuable upon the vesting of outstanding, unvested SUAs.

 

Basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding are as follows:

 

   Three Months Ended   Six Months Ended 
   June 30,   June 30,   June 30,   June 30, 
   2012   2011   2012   2011 
   (in thousands) 
                 
Weighted average common shares   5,260    5,233    5,248    5,223 
Common equivalent shares   6    9    7    9 
Weighted average common shares outstanding, assuming dilution   5,266    5,242    5,255    5,232 

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, options to purchase 192 thousand and 262 thousand common shares, respectively, were outstanding but not included in the diluted weighted average common share calculation as the effect would have been antidilutive. The amounts for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were 199 thousand and 267 thousand common shares, respectively.

5.Fair Value Measurements

 

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. It also responds to investors’ requests for expanded information about the extent to which companies’ measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. ASC 820 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, and does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances.

 

It establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs in three broad levels as follows:

 

·Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities.
·Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
·Level 3 inputs are prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

A financial asset’s or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

The financial assets of the Company measured at fair value on a recurring basis are cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash equivalents are classified within level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities. The cash equivalents were $4.8 million as of June 30, 2012 and $5.6 million as of December 31, 2011.

 

6.Subsequent Events

 

The Company evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after June 30, 2012 up through the time of filing with the SEC our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2012. During this period, the Company did not have any material recognizable subsequent events, except as disclosed herein.

 

On August 7, 2012, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share for a total of $791 thousand, which will be paid on August 30, 2012 to shareholders of record on August 17, 2012.

7.Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-5, “Comprehensive income” and ASU 2011-12, “Comprehensive Income” - amends existing guidance by allowing only two options for presenting the components of net income and other comprehensive income: (1) in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) in two separate but consecutive financial statements, consisting of an income statement followed by a separate statement of other comprehensive income. Also, items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income must be presented on the face of the financial statements. In December 2011, a new accounting standard was issued that indefinitely deferred the effective date for the requirement to present the reclassification of items from comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements. Both standards require retrospective application, and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the revised accounting standards effective January 1, 2012. The adoption had no impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations, except the expanded disclosures on the face of the Company’s income statement.

 

8.Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company believes that based upon information available to the Company at this time, the expected outcome of these matters would not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Revenues were $6.9 million for three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to revenues of $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, representing an increase of 10%. The increase in revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was a result of an increase in testing volume from new and existing clients of 15%. The average revenue per sample decreased 5% from the comparative period in 2011, which was primarily driven by the mix of customers. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were $13.1 million, representing an increase of 7% in revenues from the comparable period of 2011 of $12.2 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase in volume, as test samples increased 9% from the first half of 2011.

 

Gross profit increased $0.4 million to $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Direct costs increased by $269 thousand or 11% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, mainly due to a greater volume of samples. The gross profit margin was 60% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and for the comparable period of 2011. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2012 increased $0.4 million to $7.8 million compared to $7.4 million for the comparable period in 2011. Direct costs increased by $465 thousand or 10% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 when compared to the same period in 2011, mostly due to a greater volume in samples and partly due to an increase in supplies related to new business.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

At June 30, 2012, the Company had approximately $4.8 million of cash and cash equivalents. The Company's operating activities provided net cash of $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Investing activities used $585 thousand of cash while financing activities used $1.7 million of cash during the first six months of 2012.

 

Cash provided by operating activities of $1.5 million reflected net income of $1.8 million adjusted for depreciation and amortization of $279 thousand, stock-based compensation of $216 thousand, and a decrease for deferred income taxes of $87 thousand. This was offset by the following changes in assets and liabilities: an increase in accounts receivable of $861 thousand, a decrease in prepaid expenses of $131 thousand, an increase in accounts payable of $169 thousand, and a decrease in accrued expenses of $224 thousand.

 

Cash used in investing activities included equipment and leasehold improvements of $550 thousand which were purchased during the six months of 2012. We anticipate spending $800 thousand to $1.2 million in additional capital purchases for the remainder of 2012.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company distributed $1.7 million in cash dividends to its shareholders.

In May 2012, the Company extended the lease of its Las Vegas facility for four years, to expire in April, 2016. This extension is reflected in the prior table. The Company has a supply agreement with a vendor which requires the Company to purchase isotopes used in its radioimmunoassay drug testing procedures from this sole supplier in exchange for variable annual payments based upon prior calendar year purchases. Purchases amounted to $305 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to $264 thousand for the comparable period of 2011. The Company expects to expend approximately $305 thousand for isotope purchases during the remainder of 2012. In exchange for exclusivity, among other things, the supplier has provided the Company with the right to purchase the isotope technology at fair market value under certain conditions, including the failure to meet the Company’s isotope supply commitments. This agreement does not include a fixed termination date; however, it is cancelable upon mutual agreement by the parties or six months after termination notice by the Company of its intent to use a different technology in connection with its drug testing procedures.

 

At June 30, 2012, the Company's principal sources of liquidity included an aggregate of approximately $4.8 million of cash and cash equivalents. Management currently believes that such funds, together with cash generated from operations, should be adequate to fund anticipated working capital requirements and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Depending upon the Company's results of operations and capital needs, the Company may use various financing sources to raise additional funds, although the Company does not have any such plans at this time. At June 30, 2012, the Company had no long-term debt.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, we disclosed our critical accounting policies and estimates upon which our financial statements are derived. There have been no changes to these policies since December 31, 2011. Readers are encouraged to review these disclosures in conjunction with the review of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Interest Rate Sensitivity. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents which consist of cash and money market funds with financial institutions. Due to the conservative nature and relatively short duration of our cash and cash equivalents interest rate risk is mitigated.

 

Based on our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents, our expected operating cash flows and our other sources of cash; we do not anticipate that any lack of liquidity will materially affect our ability to operate our business.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

As of the date of this report, our Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President - Finance performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Vice President - Finance concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and disclosed within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that its disclosure controls and procedures were also effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could significantly affect these internal controls over financial reporting subsequent to the date of the most recent evaluation.
