Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We consider the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”). ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be not applicable.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” ASU 2017-04 eliminates the two-step process that required identification of potential impairment and a separate measure of the actual impairment. Goodwill impairment charges, if any, would be determined by the difference between a reporting unit's carrying value and its fair value (impairment loss is limited to the carrying value). This standard is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company’s adoption of this standard on January 1, 2020 did not have a material impact on its financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract.” The update aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The update also requires an entity to expense the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement over the term of the hosting arrangement. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted this standard on a prospective basis. The Company’s adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326).” The update changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities and loans, and requires entities to use a new forward-looking expected loss model that will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for losses. In February 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-2, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842).” The update delayed the effective date of ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326)” for Smaller Reporting Companies until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Adoption will require a modified retrospective approach beginning with the earliest period presented. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact this standard will have on its financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB Issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting of Income Taxes”, which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This update is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine what impact it may have on its financial statements.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” This update provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease potential accounting impacts associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued, such as interbank offered rates and LIBOR. This guidance includes practical expedients for contract modifications due to reference rate reform. Generally, contract modifications related to reference rate reform may be considered an event that does not require remeasurement or reassessment of a previous accounting determination at the modification date. This guidance may be applied through December 31, 2022. The Company will apply this guidance to transactions and modifications to contracts and hedging relationships that reference LIBOR.

The Company is party to an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Truist Bank (formerly known as Branch Banking and Trust Company), consisting of a $ i 75 million revolving credit facility expiring in May 2023, a term loan maturing in February 2024 (“2017 Term Loan”) and a term loan maturing in January 2026 (“2018 Term Loan”).
Obligations outstanding under the 2018 Term Loan have a variable interest rate of LIBOR plus a margin of between i 0.85% and i 1.65% (based on the Company’s funded debt to EBITDA ratio) ( i 1.03% at June 30, 2020). Obligations outstanding under the revolving credit facility and the 2017 Term Loan generally have a variable interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus a margin of between i 0.68% and i 1.50% (based on the Company’s funded debt to EBITDA ratio) ( i 0.86% at June 30, 2020). The available balance under the revolving credit facility is reduced by outstanding letters of credit. As of June 30, 2020, there were no outstanding letters of credit.
On March 30, 2020, the Company entered into debt deferment agreements with Truist Bank to: (i) defer contractual principal and interest payments due between April 1, 2020 and June 1, 2020 under the 2017 Term Loan and 2018 Term Loan until their respective maturity dates; and (ii) defer contractual interest payments due between April 1, 2020 and June 1, 2020 under the revolving credit facility until its maturity date. Contractual principal payments for the 2017 Term Loan are as follows: remainder of 2020 - $ i 3.0 million; 2021 through 2023 - $ i 6.0 million per year; and 2024 - $ i 3.0 million. Contractual principal payments for the 2018 Term Loan are as follows: remainder of 2020 - $ i 4.6 million; 2021 through 2025 - $ i 9.3 million per year; and 2026 - $ i 3.1 million. The term loans do not contain pre-payment penalties.
The Company is a party to an interest rate swap with a total notional value of $ i 11.3 million as of June 30, 2020 pursuant to which it makes fixed payments and receives floating payments. The Company entered into the interest rate swap to offset changes in expected cash flows due to fluctuations in the associated variable interest rates. The Company’s interest rate swap expires in February 2024. The interest rate swap is not designated as a hedge transaction. Changes in fair value and gains and losses on settlement on the interest rate swap are recognized in interest expense in our statements of comprehensive income. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, a loss of $ i 0.3 million and $ i 0.2 million, respectively, was recognized on the interest rate swap.

NOTE 4 – Periodic Pension Expense:
The following table details the net periodic pension expense under the Company’s plans for the periods presented (in thousands):
i
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||||||
| 2019 | 2020 | 2019 | ||||||||||||||
| Service cost - benefits earned during the period | $ | i 38 | $ | i 29 | $ | i 76 | $ | i 58 | ||||||||

| Net periodic pension cost after settlements | $ | i 371 | $ | i 576 | $ | i 694 | $ | i 864 | ||||||||
The pension settlement losses included in the table above resulted from lump sum pension payments made to various employees upon their retirement or termination during the periods specified. The pension settlement losses did not require a cash outlay by the Company and did not increase the Company’s total pension expense over time, as the charge was an acceleration of costs that otherwise would be recognized as pension expense in future periods. The service cost component is included in selling and administrative expenses in our statements of comprehensive income and the other components of net periodic pension cost are included in other periodic pension costs in our statements of comprehensive income.
Effective on June 30, 2013, the Company no longer accrues additional benefits for future service or for future increases in compensation levels for the Company’s primary defined benefit pension plan.
Effective on December 31, 2014, the Company no longer accrues additional benefits for future service for the Company’s hourly defined benefit plan.
NOTE 5 – Net Sales:
For our Uniforms and Related Products and Promotional Products segments, revenue is primarily generated from the sale of finished products to customers. Revenue for our Uniforms and Related Products and Promotional Products segments is recognized when the performance obligations under the contract terms are satisfied. For certain contracts with customers in which the Company has an enforceable right to payment for goods with no alternative use, revenue is recognized over time upon receipt of finished goods into inventory. Revenue for goods that do have an alternative use or that the customer is not obligated to purchase under the terms of a contract is generally recognized when the goods are transferred to the customer. Revenue from the sale of personal protective equipment, including face masks, isolation gowns, sanitizers and gloves, is generally recognized at a point in time when the goods are transferred to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery depending on the terms of the underlying contract. The Company includes shipping and handling fees billable to customers in net sales. Shipping and handling activities that occur after the transfer of promised goods are accrued as control is transferred to the customer rather than being treated as a separate performance obligation.
For our Remote Staffing segment, revenue is generated from providing our customers with staffing solution services. Revenue for our Remote Staffing segment is recognized as services are delivered.
Revenue is measured at the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for the goods or services. Variable consideration for estimated returns, allowances and other price variances is recorded based upon historical experience and current allowance programs. Contract termination terms may involve variable consideration clauses such as sales discounts and customer rebates, and revenue is adjusted accordingly for these provisions. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The promised amount of consideration in a contract is not adjusted for the effects of a significant financing component when we expect, at contract inception, that the period between our transfer of a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that product or service will be one year or less. Sales taxes are excluded from the measurement of a performance obligation’s transaction price. Sales commissions are expensed as incurred when we expect that the amortization period of such costs will be one year or less.
The following table presents disaggregated revenue by operating segment for the periods presented (in thousands):

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
The following table provides information about accounts receivables - trade, contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers (in thousands):
i
| June 30, | ||||||||
| 2019 | ||||||||
| Accounts receivable - trade | $ | i 87,064 | $ | i 79,746 | ||||
| Current contract assets | i 35,129 | i 38,533 | ||||||
| Current contract liabilities | i 8,472 | i 1,821 | ||||||
Contract assets relate to goods produced without an alternative use for which the Company has an enforceable right to payment but which have not yet been invoiced to the customer. The majority of the amounts included in contract assets on December 31, 2019 were transferred to accounts receivable during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of the Company completing its performance under a contract. Contract liabilities are included in other current liabilities in our balance sheets. The increase in contract liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to new customer contracts for the sourcing of personal protective equipment within the Promotional Products and Uniforms and Related Products segments. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, $ i 1.1 million of revenue was recognized from the contract liabilities balance as of December 31, 2019.

NOTE 6 – Contingencies:
The purchase price to acquire substantially all of the assets of BAMKO, Inc. (“BAMKO”) in 2016 included contingent consideration through 2021. The estimated fair value for BAMKO acquisition-related contingent consideration payable was $ i 2.6 million as of June 30, 2020, of which $ i 1.8 million is expected to be paid in the second quarter of 2021. The purchase price to acquire substantially all of the assets of Tangerine Promotions, Ltd. and Tangerine Promotions West, Inc. (collectively “Tangerine”) in 2017 included contingent consideration through 2021. The estimated fair value for Tangerine acquisition-related contingent consideration payable was $ i 1.9 million as of June 30, 2020, of which $ i 1.0 million is expected to be paid in the second quarter of 2021. The Company will continue to evaluate these liabilities for remeasurement at the end of each reporting period and any changes will be recorded in the Company’s statements of comprehensive income. The carrying amount of the liabilities may fluctuate significantly and actual amounts paid may be materially different from the estimated value of the liabilities.
The Company is involved in various legal actions and claims arising from the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate outcome of these matters is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, or financial position.

Stock options and SARs
The Company grants stock options and stock-settled SARs to employees that allow them to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. Stock options are also granted to outside members of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company determines the fair value of stock options and SARs at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model.
All stock options and SARs granted prior to August 3, 2018 vested immediately when granted. Awards issued thereafter vest either one or two years after the grant date. Employee awards expire five years after the grant date, and those issued to directors expire ten years after the grant date. The Company issues new shares upon the exercise of stock options and SARs.

The Company has granted restricted stock to directors and certain employees which vest at a specified future date, generally after three years, or when certain conditions are met. The shares are subject to accelerated vesting under certain circumstances as outlined in the 2013 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan (the “2013 Plan”).

Performance Shares
Certain employees received service-based or service-based and performance-based shares, to which we collectively refer to as performance shares. The service-based awards vest after the service period is met, which is generally three to five years. Expense for these grants is based on the fair value on the date of the grant and is being recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective service period. The performance-based shares generally vest after five years if the performance and service targets are met. The Company evaluates the performance conditions associated with these grants each reporting period to determine the expected number of shares to be issued. Expenses for grants of performance shares are recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective service period based on the grant date fair value and expected number of shares to be issued. The awards are subject to accelerated vesting under certain circumstances as outlined in the 2013 Plan.

At the end of each interim period, the Company makes its best estimate of the annual expected effective tax rate and applies that rate to its ordinary year-to-date income or loss. The tax expense or benefit related to significant, unusual, or extraordinary items that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effect are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which those items occur.
The computation of the annual expected effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year and permanent and temporary differences. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, additional information is obtained or the tax environment changes.
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $ i 3.7 million, which represents an effective tax rate of i 19.6%. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $ i 0.9 million, which represents an effective tax rate of i 23.8%. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $ i 5.0 million, which represents an effective tax rate of i 21.1%. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $ i 1.5 million, which represents an effective tax rate of i 22.2%. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by foreign taxes and foreign tax credit decreases of i 5.0%, partially offset by increases of i 1.8% for compensation related items, i 0.9% for state income taxes and i 0.3% for changes in uncertain tax positions.

NOTE 9 – Net Income Per Share:
The Company’s basic net income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share includes the effect of the Company’s outstanding stock options, stock appreciation rights, unvested shares of restricted stock and unvested performance shares, if the inclusion of these items is dilutive.
The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

Awards to purchase i 446,061 and i 329,095 shares of common stock with weighted average exercise prices of $ i 19.07 and $ i 20.97 per share were outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted net income per share because the awards’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares.
NOTE 10 – Operating Segment Information:
The Company classifies its businesses into three operating segments based on the types of products and services provided. The Uniforms and Related Products segment consists of sales to customers of uniforms and related items. The Remote Staffing Solutions segment consists of sales of staffing solutions. The Promotional Products segment consists of sales to customers of promotional products and other branded merchandise.
The Company evaluates the performance of each operating segment based on several factors of which the primary financial measures are net sales and income before taxes on income. Amounts for corporate expenses are included in the totals for the Uniforms and Related Products segment. To better reflect the way in which management now reviews the Company’s operating results, in the third quarter of 2019, the Company changed the composition of total assets for each reportable segment to exclude intercompany balances. This change has been made to all periods presented within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

NOTE 11 – COVID-19:
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect our operations and financial performance, and likely will continue to do so for an undetermined period of time. International, federal, state and local efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 has continued to intensify as governments enacted shelter in place orders, declared states of emergency, enacted safety requirements such as recommended or mandatory use of face masks and other personal protective equipment and related products, took steps to restrict travel, enacted temporary closures of non-essential businesses and took other restrictive measures that prohibit many employees from going to work. With regard to personal protective equipment, the COVID-19 pandemic has created significant market demands from new and existing customers. In responding to the needs of our customers, our sourcing teams began sourcing much needed personal protective equipment, including face masks, isolation gowns, sanitizers and gloves, which resulted in an increase in net sales during the three months ended June 30, 2020 of $ i 49.7 million and $ i 8.1 million for our Promotional Products segment and Uniforms and Related Products segment, respectively.
The pandemic could have a number of adverse impacts on our business, including, but not limited to, additional disruption to the economy and our customers’ willingness and/or ability to spend, temporary or permanent closures of businesses that consume our products and services, additional work restrictions, and supply chains being interrupted, slowed, or rendered inoperable. Our employees and the employees and contractors of our suppliers and customers also could become ill, quarantined, or otherwise unable to work or travel due to health reasons or governmental restrictions.
The majority of the principal fabrics used in the manufacture of products within the Uniforms and Related Products segment are sourced in China and the vast majority of raw materials used in our Promotional Products segment are sourced from China, either directly by BAMKO or by its suppliers. If we are unable to continue to obtain affordable raw materials and finished products from China or if our suppliers are unable to source affordable raw materials from China, it could significantly disrupt our business. A prolonged pandemic, or the threat thereof, could significantly disrupt our product sourcing, which in turn, could significantly disrupt our business.
We have and will continue to monitor and control our expense levels to protect our profitability. For example, on March 30, 2020, we entered into debt deferment agreements with Truist Bank (formerly known as Branch Banking and Trust Company) to: (i) defer contractual principal and interest payments due between April 1, 2020 and June 1, 2020 under the 2017 Term Loan and 2018 Term Loan until their respective maturity dates; and (ii) defer contractual interest payments due between April 1, 2020 and June 1, 2020 under the revolving credit facility until its maturity date. Additionally, we have proactively taken steps to increase available cash on hand by targeted reductions in discretionary operating expenses. Finally, we have and will continue to delay certain capital expenditures relating to non-essential projects until economic conditions begin to stabilize.
Prolonged instability in the United States and global economies, and how the world reacts to them, could have long-term impacts on our business. These business impacts could negatively affect us in a number of ways, including, but not limited to, reduced demand for our core products and services, reductions to our revenue and profitability, costs associated with complying with new or amended laws and regulations affecting our business, declines in our stock price, reduced availability and less favorable terms of future borrowings, valuation of our pension assets and obligations, reduced credit-worthiness of our customers, and potential impairment of the carrying value of goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows will depend on numerous evolving factors that we are unable to accurately predict at this time. The length and scope of the restrictions imposed by various governments and success of efforts to find a suitable vaccine, among other factors, will determine the ultimate severity of the COVID-19 impact on our business. However, prolonged periods of difficult market conditions could have material adverse impacts on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Business Outlook
Superior Group of Companies, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “Superior,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is comprised of three reportable business segments: (1) Uniforms and Related Products, (2) Remote Staffing Solutions, and (3) Promotional Products.
COVID-19 Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect our operations and financial performance, and likely will continue to do so for an undetermined period of time. International, federal, state and local efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 has continued to intensify as governments enacted shelter in place orders, declared states of emergency, enacted safety requirements such as recommended or mandatory use of face masks and other personal protective equipment and related products, took steps to restrict travel, enacted temporary closures of non-essential businesses and took other restrictive measures that prohibit many employees from going to work.

The pandemic could have a number of adverse impacts on our business, including, but not limited to, additional disruption to the economy and our customers’ willingness and/or ability to spend, temporary or permanent closures of businesses that consume our products and services, additional work restrictions, and supply chains being interrupted, slowed, or rendered inoperable. Our employees and the employees and contractors of our suppliers and customers also could become ill, quarantined, or otherwise unable to work or travel due to health reasons or governmental restrictions.
The majority of the principal fabrics used in the manufacture of products within the Uniforms and Related Products segment are sourced in China and the vast majority of raw materials used in our Promotional Products segment are sourced from China, either directly by BAMKO or by its suppliers. If we are unable to continue to obtain affordable raw materials and finished products from China or if our suppliers are unable to source affordable raw materials from China, it could significantly disrupt our business. A prolonged pandemic, or the threat thereof, could significantly disrupt our product sourcing, which in turn, could significantly disrupt our business.

However, prolonged periods of difficult market conditions could have material adverse impacts on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Uniforms and Related Products
In our Uniforms and Related Products segment, we manufacture and sell a wide range of uniforms, career apparel and accessories. Our primary products are service apparel, such as scrubs, lab coats, protective apparel and patient gowns, provided to workers in the healthcare industry, and service apparel, such as uniforms, provided to workers employed by our customers in various industries, including retail, hotels, food service, transportation and other industries. We sell our brands of healthcare service apparel primarily to healthcare laundries, dealers, distributors and retailers. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen increased demand for healthcare service apparel from laundries, dealers and distributors that service hospitals and other medical facilities. During the second quarter of 2020, we were able to service many of our customer needs with available healthcare service apparel inventory that we had on hand prior to the start of the pandemic. Additionally, we have implemented certain alternative strategies with our retailers to ensure that our customers are able to take advantage of the increase in demand from medical professionals. From a long-term perspective, we expect that demand for our signature marketing brands, including Fashion Seal Healthcare® and WonderWink®, will continue to provide opportunities for growth and increased market share. Sales of uniforms are impacted by our customers’ opening and closing of locations and reductions, increases, and turnover of employees. The current economic environment in the United States has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and as a result, we have seen reduced short-term demand for uniform apparel in many of our customers’ industries, some of which has been partially offset by demand from customers in certain retail industries, such as grocery and pharmacy customers, and healthcare. Additionally, we recently began sourcing much needed personal protective equipment for our customers which has mitigated some of the declines in sales of uniform apparel to certain customers. Based on the longer-term fundamentals of our uniforms business, we anticipate that we will have growth opportunities when market conditions in the United States stabilize and begin to improve.
Remote Staffing Solutions
This business segment (also known as “The Office Gurus”), which operates in El Salvador, Belize, Jamaica, and the United States, initially started to support the Company’s back office needs while improving overall efficiencies and lowering operating costs. After years of consistently improving key performance indicators, lowering costs and providing exceptional service to our Uniforms and Related Products segment in areas such as order entry, cash collections, vendor payables processing, customer service, sales, and others, The Office Gurus started selling their services to outside companies in 2009. Over the past 10 years, The Office Gurus has become an award-winning global business process outsourcer offering inbound and outbound voice, email, text, chat and social media support. The COVID-19 pandemic has generated uncertainties for our customers and their industries, and has resulted in a short-term slowdown of our revenue growth rates for this business. With an environment and career path designed to attract and maintain top talent across all sites, The Office Gurus is positioned well to continue growth when market conditions begin to stabilize.
Promotional Products
For more than a decade, we sold promotional products on a limited basis to our existing Uniforms and Related Products customer base. While there were substantial opportunities to sell promotional products to those customers, it was not an area of focus, specialization, or expertise for us. On March 1, 2016, that changed with our acquisition of substantially all of the assets of BAMKO, Inc. (“BAMKO”). One of the top firms in the promotional products industry, BAMKO has a number of strengths, well-developed systems, and time-tested processes that offer significant competitive advantages. With a robust back-office support platform operated out of India, direct-to-factory sourcing operations based in China, and proprietary technological platforms and programming capabilities that we believe are very competitive, BAMKO is positioned to be a platform for potential future acquisitions in this industry. We completed two additional acquisitions in this segment in late 2017 and remain open to additional acquisitions going forward. In recent years we have seen an increase in customer orders in our promotional products business and expect growth opportunities for our core promotional products business to continue once the current market environment stabilizes. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen significant short-term opportunities within the personal protective equipment market. In responding to the needs of our customers, the sourcing team within the Promotional Products segment began sourcing much needed personal protective equipment for our customers. These opportunities led to record revenue levels during the second quarter of 2020, despite the downturn in the branded merchandise industry that has experienced customer budget cuts and widespread event cancellations. Additionally, in our core promotional products business we have not experienced the same downturn that many of our competitors have experienced as the increase in activities from customers in certain industries, such as the delivery service industry, has more than offset reduced activities from customers in other industries, such as the restaurant and entertainment industries. From a long-term perspective, we believe that this segment’s synergistic fit with our uniforms business will create opportunities to cross-sell the products of various business segments to new and existing customers.

Net sales for the Company increased 72.7% from $92.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $159.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The principal components of this aggregate increase in net sales were as follows: (1) an increase in the net sales of our Uniforms and Related Products segment (contributing 16.4%, of which $1.4 million (contributing 1.6%) represented the effect of differences in timing of revenue recognized under ASC 606 between periods), (2) an increase in the net sales for our Promotional Products segment (contributing 56.0%), and (3) an increase in net sales for our Remote Staffing Solutions segment after intersegment eliminations (contributing 0.3%).
Uniforms and Related Products net sales increased 24.9%, or $15.1 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was primarily due to market demand for healthcare service apparel, which resulted in an increase in net sales of $17.1 million. Additionally, COVID-19 increased demand from our customers for personal protective equipment, including face masks, isolation gowns, sanitizers and gloves, which resulted in an increase in net sales of $8.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020. These increases were partially offset by decrease in demand for uniform apparel experienced during the current year period primarily as a result of COVID-19. Shipments by our Uniforms and Related Products segment increased from $64.3 million to $77.9 million comparing the three months ended June 30, 2020 with the prior year period. For a reconciliation of shipments by our Uniforms and Related Products segment, see “Shipments (Non-GAAP Financial Measure)” below.
Remote Staffing Solutions net sales increased 4.0% before intersegment eliminations and 3.6% after intersegment eliminations for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. These increases were primarily attributed to providing continued services in the current year period to our customer base that was expanded during 2019. Despite the increase in net sales, overall growth during the three months ended June 30, 2020 was negatively impacted by disruptions in April 2020 resulting from COVID-19.
Promotional Products net sales increased 217.8%, or $51.7 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was primarily due to the sale of personal protective equipment, including face masks, sanitizers and gloves, which resulted in net sales of $49.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen significant short-term opportunities within the personal protective equipment market. Additionally, in our core promotional products business we have not experienced the same downturn that many of our competitors have experienced as the increase in activities from customers in certain industries, such as the delivery service industry, has more than offset reduced activities from customers in other industries, such as the restaurant and entertainment industries.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold consists primarily of direct costs of acquiring inventory, including cost of merchandise, inbound freight charges, purchasing costs, and inspection costs for our Uniforms and Related Products and Promotional Products segments. Cost of goods sold for our Remote Staffing Solutions segment includes salaries and payroll related benefits for agents. The Company includes shipping and handling fees billed to customers in net sales. Shipping and handling costs associated with out-bound freight are recorded in cost of goods sold. Other shipping and handling costs are included in selling and administrative expenses.
As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold for our Uniforms and Related Products segment was 63.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 64.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold remained relatively flat. The increase in cost of goods sold during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to the net sales increase explained above.
As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold for our Remote Staffing Solutions segment was 45.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 42.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The percentage increase was primarily driven by disruptions resulting from COVID-19.
As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold for our Promotional Products segment was 68.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 74.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The percentage decrease was primarily the result of personal protective equipment sales during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and differences in the mix of products and customers.
Selling and Administrative Expenses
Selling and administrative expenses increased 35.0%, or $9.4 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase in bad debt expense of $3.4 million on outstanding trade accounts receivable and an increase in sales commissions as a result of record sales levels during the three months ended June 30, 2020, as discussed above.
As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses for our Uniforms and Related Products segment was 26.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 30.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The percentage decrease was primarily due to the increase in net sales explained above.
As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses for our Remote Staffing Solutions segment was 37.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 38.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses remained relatively flat.
As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses for our Promotional Products segment was 18.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 22.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The percentage decrease was primarily related to the net sales increase explained above.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in LIBOR rates on our outstanding borrowings and a significant reduction in outstanding borrowings.
Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate was 19.6% and 23.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by foreign taxes and foreign tax credit decreases of 7.7%, partially offset by increases of 1.9% for compensation related items, 0.6% for changes in uncertain tax positions and 0.3% for state income taxes. The effective tax rate may vary from quarter to quarter due to unusual or infrequently occurring items, the resolution of income tax audits, changes in tax laws, the tax impact from employee share-based payments, taxes incurred in connection to the territorial style tax system, or other items.

Net sales for the Company increased 41.8% from $178.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to $253.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The principal components of this aggregate increase in net sales were as follows: (1) an increase in the net sales of our Uniforms and Related Products segment (contributing 9.2%, of which $3.4 million (contributing 1.9%) represented the effect of differences in timing of revenue recognized under ASC 606 between periods), (2) an increase in the net sales for our Promotional Products segment (contributing 32.2%), and (3) an increase in net sales for our Remote Staffing Solutions segment after intersegment eliminations (contributing 0.4%).
Uniforms and Related Products net sales increased 13.8%, or $16.5 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was primarily due to market demand for healthcare service apparel, which resulted in an increase in net sales of $17.7 million. Additionally, COVID-19 increased demand from our customers for personal protective equipment, including face masks, isolation gowns, sanitizers and gloves, which resulted in an increase in net sales of $8.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020. These increases were partially offset by decrease in demand for uniform apparel experienced during the current year period primarily as a result of COVID-19. Shipments by our Uniforms and Related Products segment increased from $124.7 million to $137.7 million comparing the six months ended June 30, 2020 with the prior year period.

Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased to $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 from $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in LIBOR rates on our outstanding borrowings and a significant reduction in outstanding borrowings.
Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate was 21.1% and 22.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by foreign taxes and foreign tax credit decreases of 5.0%, partially offset by increases of 1.8% for compensation related items, 0.9% for state income taxes and 0.3% for changes in uncertain tax positions. The effective tax rate may vary from quarter to quarter due to unusual or infrequently occurring items, the resolution of income tax audits, changes in tax laws, the tax impact from employee share-based payments, taxes incurred in connection to the territorial style tax system, or other items.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Management uses a number of standards in measuring the Company’s liquidity, such as: working capital, profitability ratios, cash flows from operating activities, and activity ratios. The strength of the Company’s balance sheet generally provides the ability to pursue acquisitions, invest in new product lines and technologies and invest in additional working capital as necessary.
The Company’s primary source of liquidity has been its net income and the use of credit facilities and term loans as described further below. In the future, the Company may continue to use credit facilities
and other secured and unsecured borrowings as a source of liquidity. Management currently believes that cash flows provided by operating activities and availability under the revolving credit facility will be sufficient to satisfy the Company’s anticipated working capital requirements for the next twelve months. The Company has proactively taken steps to increase available cash on hand by targeted reductions in discretionary cash outflows. The Company may also begin relying on the issuance of equity or debt securities. There can be no assurance that any such financings would be available to us on reasonable terms. Any future issuances of equity securities or debt securities with equity features may be dilutive to our shareholders.
Additionally, the cost of the Company’s future sources of liquidity may differ from the costs of the Company’s sources of liquidity to date.
Working Capital
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.9 million to $5.1 million as of June 30, 2020 from $9.0 million on December 31, 2019. Excess cash generated from operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was used to repay outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Working capital decreased to $120.9 million at June 30, 2020 from $142.4 million at December
31, 2019. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to an increase in other current liabilities and a decrease in contract assets, partially offset by an increase in trade accounts receivable. The increase in other current liabilities was primarily driven by new activities in the current year period relating to the increased sale of personal protective equipment within our Promotional Products and Uniforms and Related Products segments as a result of COVID-19, including an increase in contract liabilities and increases in other liabilities correlated with such customer contracts. The decrease in contract
assets was primarily related to the timing of shipments to customers and receipts from suppliers for finished goods with no alternative use within our Promotional Products and Uniforms and Related Products segments. The increase in trade accounts receivable was primarily due to increased net sales of personal protective equipment within our Promotional Products segment and healthcare service apparel within our Uniforms and Related Products segment.
Cash Flows

Operating Activities. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to the receipt of payments from new customer contracts for the sourcing of personal protective equipment needed in response to COVID-19 within the Promotional Products and Uniforms and Related Products segments. Working capital cash changes during the six months ended June 30, 2020 included an increase of $21.0 million in accounts payable and other current liabilities and an increase of $12.3 million in trade accounts receivable. Working capital cash changes during the six months ended June
30, 2019 included an increase of $7.2 million in trade accounts receivable.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 remained relatively flat. From a long-term perspective, the Company expects to continue its ongoing capital expenditure program designed to improve the effectiveness and capabilities of its facilities and technology. The Company at all times evaluates its capital expenditure program in light of prevailing economic conditions. In the near term, the Company expects to delay certain
capital expenditures relating to non-essential projects until economic conditions begin to stabilize.
Financing Activities. The increase in net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to an increase in net repayments of $34.3 million in debt during the current year period compared to net borrowings of $5.8 million in the prior year period. Excess cash generated from operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was used to repay outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
Credit Facilities (See Note 3 to the Financial Statements)
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $85.5 million in outstanding borrowings under its amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Truist Bank, consisting of $7.3 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility expiring in May 2023, $24.0 million outstanding under a term loan maturing in February 2024 (“2017 Term Loan”), and $54.2 million outstanding under a term loan maturing in January 2026 (“2018 Term Loan”). The revolving credit facility, 2017 Term Loan and 2018 Term Loan are collectively referred to as the “Credit Facilities”.
Obligations outstanding under the 2018 Term Loan have a variable interest rate of LIBOR plus a margin of between 0.85% and 1.65% (based on the Company’s funded debt to EBITDA ratio) (1.03% at June 30, 2020). Obligations outstanding under the revolving credit facility and the 2017 Term Loan generally have a variable interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus a margin of between 0.68% and 1.50% (based on the Company’s funded debt to EBITDA ratio) (0.86% at June 30, 2020). The available balance under the revolving credit facility is reduced by outstanding letters of credit. At June 30, 2020, the Company had undrawn capacity of $67.7 million under the revolving credit facility.
On March 30, 2020, the Company entered into debt deferment agreements with Truist Bank to: (i) defer contractual principal and interest payments due between April 1, 2020 and June 1, 2020 under the 2017 Term Loan and 2018 Term Loan until their respective maturity dates; and (ii) defer contractual interest payments due between April 1, 2020 and June 1, 2020 under the revolving credit facility until its maturity date. Contractual principal payments for the 2017 Term Loan are as follows: remainder of 2020 - $3.0 million; 2021 through 2023 - $6.0 million per year; and 2024 - $3.0 million. Contractual principal payments for the 2018 Term Loan are as follows: remainder of 2020 - $4.6 million; 2021 through 2025 - $9.3 million per year; and 2026 - $3.1 million. The term loans do not contain pre-payment penalties.
The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default and negative covenants, including but not limited to those governing indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, investments, restricted payments, and sales of assets. The Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of at least 1.25:1 and a funded debt to EBITDA ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) not to exceed 5.0:1. As of June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with these ratios. The Credit Facilities are secured by substantially all of the operating assets of the Company as collateral, and the
Company’s obligations under the Credit Facilities are guaranteed by all of its domestic subsidiaries. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Facilities are subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of an event of default as defined in the Credit Agreement.
Dividends and Share Repurchase Program
During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company paid cash dividends of $1.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively. Due to the anticipated continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, the Company has elected to suspend its regular quarterly dividend until we have clearer visibility on improved macro conditions.
On May 2, 2019, the
Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program of up to 750,000 shares of Company’s outstanding common stock. There is no expiration date or other restriction governing the period over which the Company can make share repurchases under the program. All purchases under this program will be open market transactions. Under this program the Company reacquired and retired 43,458 shares of its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2020. At June 30, 2020, the Company’s remaining repurchase capacity under its common stock repurchase program was 657,451 shares. Shares purchased under the common stock
repurchase program are constructively retired and returned to unissued status. The Company considers several factors in determining when to make share repurchases, including among other things, the cost of equity, the after-tax cost of borrowing, the debt to total capitalization targets and the expected future cash needs.
Shipments (Non-GAAP Financial Measure)
In this management’s discussion and analysis, we use a supplemental measure of our performance, which is derived from our financial information, but which is not presented in our financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). This non-GAAP financial measure is “shipments,” and represents a primary metric by which our management evaluates customer demand.
We define shipments as net sales excluding, if applicable, sales recorded with respect to contracts with customers in which there is an enforceable right to the payment for goods with no alternative use in advance of the transfer of these goods to our customers. As recognized in accordance with ASC 606, net sales generated from such contracts are recorded as of the time at which we receive the goods from our suppliers rather than at the time we transfer them to our customers. For customers to which we sell goods that have an alternative use, or customers with whom we do not have an enforceable right to payment with no alternative use, shipments and net sales are identical performance measures.
We believe that sales recorded under ASC 606 are affected by changes in the Company’s purchasing patterns that may not be directly aligned with customer demand. We believe that shipments, as a supplemental performance measure, tracks customer demand more closely.
Shipments is not a measure determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for sales determined in accordance with GAAP. Shipments is used as a measurement of customer demand and we believe it to be a helpful measure for those evaluating performance of a company operating in the uniforms and related products business. However, there are limitations to the use of this non-GAAP financial measure. Our non-GAAP financial measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not engage in any off-balance sheet financing arrangements. In particular, the Company does not have any interest in variable interest entities, which include special purpose entities and structured finance entities.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
We are subject to market risk exposure related to changes in interest rates on our debt. Interest on our Credit Facilities are based upon the one-month LIBOR rate. In order to reduce the interest rate risk on our debt, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement on a portion of its borrowings. Excluding the effect of the interest rate swap agreement, a hypothetical increase in the LIBOR rate of 100 basis points as of January 1, 2020 would have resulted in approximately $0.5 million in additional pre-tax interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020. See Note 3 to the Financial Statements.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Sales to customers outside of the United States are subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, which may negatively impact gross margin realized on our sales. Less than 5% of our sales are outside of the United States. We cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on our operating results. In certain cases, we may enter into foreign currency cash flow hedges to reduce the variability of cash flows associated with our sales and expenses denominated in foreign currency. As of June 30, 2020, we had no foreign currency exchange hedging contracts. There can be no assurance that our strategies will adequately protect our operating results from the effect of exchange rate fluctuations.
Financial results of our foreign subsidiaries in the Promotional Products segment are denominated in their local currencies, which include the Hong Kong dollar, the Chinese renminbi, the British pound, the Indian rupee, and the Brazilian real. These operations may also have net assets and liabilities not denominated in their functional currency, which exposes us to changes in foreign currency exchange rates that impact income. Excluding intercompany payables and receivables considered to be long-term investments, changes in exchange rates for assets and liabilities not denominated in their functional currency are reported as foreign currency gains (losses) within selling and administrative expenses in our statements of comprehensive income. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, foreign currency losses were not significant. We also have exposure to foreign currency exchange risk from the translation of foreign subsidiaries from the local currency into the U.S. dollar. Comprehensive income during the six months ended June 30, 2020 included a foreign currency translation adjustment loss of $1.4 million primarily related to exchange rate movements of the Brazilian real.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company conducted an evaluation, under supervision and with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer, Michael Benstock, and the Company’s principal financial officer, Andrew D. Demott, Jr., of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on such evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information the Company is required to disclose in its filings with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
We are a party to certain lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
We are exposed to certain risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and operating results. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the Risk Factors described in Part I, Item 1A-Risk Factors in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Our business could be materially adversely impacted by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
COVID-19 was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in March of 2020. The global spread of COVID-19 has created significant volatility and uncertainty and economic disruption. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows will depend on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict, including, without limitation: the duration and scope of the pandemic; governmental, business and individuals’ actions that have been and will be taken in response to the pandemic (including restrictions on travel and transport and workforce pressures); the effect on our suppliers and customers and customer demand for our core products and services; the effect on our sources of supply; the impact of the pandemic on economic activity and actions taken in response; closures of our and our suppliers’ and customers’ offices and facilities; the ability of our customers to pay for our products and services; financial market volatility; commodity prices; and the pace of recovery when the COVID-19 pandemic subsides.
The spreading of COVID-19 that is impacting global economic activity and market conditions could lead to changes in customer purchasing patterns. We have seen disruptions in our customers’ businesses, including, but not limited to, our customers’ willingness and ability to spend, layoffs and furloughs of our customers’ employees, and temporary or permanent closures of businesses that consume our products and services. Prolonged periods of difficult conditions could have material adverse impacts on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The majority of the principal fabrics used in the manufacture of products within the Uniforms and Related Products segment are sourced in China and the vast majority of raw materials used in our Promotional Products segment are sourced from China, either directly by BAMKO or by its suppliers. If we are unable to continue to obtain affordable raw materials and finished products from China or if our suppliers are unable to source affordable raw materials from China, it could significantly disrupt our business. A prolonged pandemic, or the threat thereof, could significantly disrupt our product sourcing, which in turn, could significantly disrupt our business.
The potential effects of COVID-19 also could impact us in a number of other ways, including, but not limited to, reductions to our revenue and profitability, costs associated with complying with new or amended laws and regulations affecting our business, declines in our stock price, reduced availability and less favorable terms of future borrowings, valuation of our pension assets and obligations, reduced credit-worthiness of our customers, and potential impairment of the carrying value of goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets.
Any of these events could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
