Working capital was ($4,203) on June 30, 2012, a decrease of $,4,327 from $124 on June 30, 2011. The decrease was due to increase in Deferred Revenue $2,481 primarily due to acquired companies, increase in account payable $946, increase in other liabilities $311 and due to increase of $656 in note payable and Line of credit.
Cash provided by operating activities was $938 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily due to a loss of ($1,170) which was offset by the non-cash loss on debt conversion of $198, depreciation and amortization of $819, interest expense on amortization of OID and derivative mark-to-market of $591, and due to increase in accounts payable of $400. Cash provided by operating activities was $1,016 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was due to reduction in accounts receivable of $297, depreciation and amortization of $471 and increase in deferred revenue of $290.
Cash used in investing activities was ($79) for the six months ended June 30, 2012 due to net purchases of property and equipment for $151 which was offset by collection of notes receivable for $72. Cash used in investing activities was ($45) for the six months ended June 30, 2011 due to net purchases of property and equipment. Asure's current operations are not capital intensive and management does not anticipate any significant capital expenditures during the remainder of calendar year 2012.
The Company leases office space and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases that expire at various dates through 2015. Certain leases obligate Asure to pay property taxes, maintenance and insurance and include escalation clauses. Approximately $1,235 or 77.5% of the Company's total operating lease obligations relate to its corporate office facility at Wild Basin in Austin, Texas.
Management continues to evaluate and reduce any unnecessary expenditure, while continuing to closely monitor all of its cash sources and uses as it manages its operations.
Cash used in financing activities was ($459) for the six months ended June 30, 2012 which was primarily related to payments on notes payable conversion of $222 and on capital leases and notes payable of $308 which was offset by proceeds from exercise of options $16 and $55 from Line of credit. Cash used in financing activities was ($24) for the six months ended June 30, 2011 related to payments on capital leases. Management believes it currently has sufficient cash and short-term investments on hand to fund its operations during the next twelve months and beyond without needing to obtain long-term financing. Therefore, the Company does not anticipate that it will be affected by any credit shortage in the current economic business environment.
Pursuant to Asure's stock repurchase plan, the Company is allowed to repurchase up to 450,000 shares (adjusted for the 3 for 2 stock split) of the Company's common stock. In total, Asure has repurchased 384,161 shares for approximately $5.0 million over the life of the plan, including 65,046 (adjusted for 3 for 2 stock split) shares of common stock for $110 purchased in 2010. Management will periodically assess repurchasing additional shares, depending on the Company's cash position, market conditions and other factors.
As of June 30, 2012, Asure's principal source of liquidity consisted of $1,493 of current cash and cash equivalents as well as future cash generated from operations. The Company continues to make effort to reduce expenses and thus may utilize its cash balances in the short-term to reduce long-term costs. The Company expects that it will be able to generate positive cash flows from operating activities for the remainder of 2012.
Effective July 1st, Asure acquired Meeting Maker US, Inc (d/b/a "Peoplecube").
Peoplecube was NetSimplicity's largest competitor in the Meeting Room
management industry. Asure issued $14.5 million in new debt to fund this
acquisition, in combination with paying down existing Asure and Peoplecube debt
and paying onetime costs related to the acquisition. Asure's management
expects this acquisition will result in an increase in EBITDA (Net Income before
Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization and Stock Compensation expense)
and free cash flow perspective immediately; excluding onetime costs related to
the acquisition. Please see Asure's Form 8-K from July 6, 2012 for additional
details.
Management is focused on growing its existing software operations and looking to make strategic acquisitions in the near future. In the short-term, any acquisitions will be funded with equity, cash on the balance sheet, cash from operations, and cash or debt raised from outside sources.
There is no assurance that the Company will be able to grow its cash balances or limit its cash consumption and thus maintain sufficient cash balances, and it is possible that the Company's future business demands may lead to cash utilization at levels greater than recently experienced. Management believes that the Company has sufficient capital and liquidity to fund and cultivate the growth of its current and future operations for the next 12 months and thereafter. However, due to uncertainties related to the timing and costs of these efforts, Asure may need to raise additional capital in the future. Yet, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital if and when it is needed.
