THE ODP CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
iNOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
iBASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Company is a leading provider of business services and supplies, products and technology solutions to small, medium and enterprise businesses, through an integrated business-to-business (“B2B”) distribution platform of dedicated sales professionals and technicians, online presence, and i 1,260 retail stores. Through its banner brands Office Depot®, OfficeMax®, CompuCom® and Grand&Toy®, as well as others, the Company offers its customers the tools and resources they need to focus on starting, growing and running their business. The Company’s corporate headquarters is located in Boca Raton, FL, and its primary website is www.officedepot.com.
At June 27, 2020, the Company had i three reportable segments (or “Divisions”): Business Solutions Division, Retail Division and the CompuCom Division.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 27, 2020, and for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 27, 2020 (also referred to as the “second quarter of 2020” and “the first half of 2020,” respectively) and June 29, 2019 (also referred to as the “second quarter of 2019” and “the first half of 2019,” respectively) are unaudited. However, in management’s opinion, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary to provide a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Business acquisitions in 2019 and 2020 are included prospectively from the date of acquisition, thus affecting the comparability of the Company’s financial statements for all periods presented in this report on Form 10-Q.
The Company has prepared the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Some information and note disclosures, which would normally be included in comprehensive annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those SEC rules and regulations. The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. For a better understanding of the Company and its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company recommends reading these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conjunction with the audited financial statements, which are included in the Company’s 2019 Form 10-K. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that should be expected for the full year.
After obtaining approval of the Company’s shareholders on May 11, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors determined to set a reverse stock split ratio of i 1-for-10 for a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, and a reduction in the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock by a corresponding ratio. The reverse stock split was effective on June 30, 2020. All share and per share amounts in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to this reverse stock split.
/ iCORPORATE REORGANIZATION
On March 31, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company approved proceeding with the Reorganization of the Company's corporate structure into a holding company structure. The Reorganization was completed on June 30, 2020, and Office Depot became a wholly owned subsidiary of a new holding company, The ODP Corporation, which replaced Office Depot as the public company trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market under Office Depot’s current ticker symbol “ODP”. Outstanding shares of Office Depot automatically converted into shares of common stock of The ODP Corporation. The holding company reorganization simplifies the Company’s legal entity and tax structure, more closely aligns the Company’s operating assets to their respective operating channels within the legal entity structure, and is intended to increase its operational flexibility. In addition, the Reorganization is intended to be a tax-free transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the Company’s shareholders.
iCASH MANAGEMENT
The cash management process generally utilizes zero balance accounts which provide for the settlement of the related disbursement and cash concentration accounts on a daily basis. Amounts not yet presented for payment to zero balance disbursement accounts of $ i 16 million and $ i 25 million at June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, respectively, are presented in Trade accounts payable and Accrued expenses and other current liabilities.
At June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, cash and cash equivalents held outside the United States amounted to $ i 139 million and $ i 190 million, respectively.
Restricted cash consists primarily of short-term cash deposits having original maturity dates of twelve months or less that serve as collateral to certain of the Company’s letters of credit. Restricted cash is valued at cost, which approximates fair value. At both June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, restricted cash amounted to $ i i 2 / million and is included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Standards that are not yet adopted:
Defined benefit plan: In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standards update that modifies the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. This accounting update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this new standard and believes the adoption will not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Income Taxes: In December 2019, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions to the guidance related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The accounting standards update also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. This accounting update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this new standard and believes the adoption will not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Standards that were adopted:
Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: In June 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that modifies the measurement of expected credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The update changes the accounting for credit impairment by adding an impairment model that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. In July 2018, the FASB approved an amendment to the new guidance that provides transition relief to the adopting entities and allows for an election of the fair value option on certain financial instruments.
The Company adopted this accounting standard on the first day of the first quarter of 2020, and recognized a cumulative effect adjustment of $ i 1 million, net of tax, to its accumulated deficit related to increasing the allowance for doubtful accounts within its receivables. The adoption of this new guidance did not result in any other changes and did not have a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Cloud computing arrangements: In August 2018, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that provides guidance regarding the accounting for implementation costs in cloud computing arrangements. The Company adopted this accounting standards update on the first day of the first quarter of 2020 with no material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS
Since 2017, the Company has been undergoing a strategic business transformation to pivot into an integrated B2B distribution platform, with the objective of expanding its product offerings to include value-added services for its customers and capture greater market share. As part of this transformation, the Company has been acquiring businesses to expand its reach and distribution network into geographic areas that were previously underserved. During the first half of 2020, the Company acquired i three small independent regional office supply distribution businesses. All three acquisitions were completed in the first quarter of 2020.
The aggregate total purchase consideration, including contingent consideration, for the three acquisitions completed in the first half of 2020 was approximately $ i 20 million, subject to certain customary post-closing adjustments. The aggregate purchase price was primarily funded with cash on hand, with the remainder consisting of contingent consideration estimated to be $ i 2 million, which will be paid in two installments in the second quarters of 2021 and 2022, respectively. The acquisitions were treated as purchases in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) which requires allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of assets and liabilities acquired in the transactions including goodwill and other intangible assets. The Company has performed a preliminary purchase price allocation of the aggregate purchase price to the estimated fair values of assets and liabilities acquired in the transactions, including $ i 4 million of customer relationship intangible assets and $ i 10 million of goodwill. An immaterial amount of the aggregate purchase price was allocated to working capital accounts. These assets and liabilities are included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 27, 2020. As additional information is obtained about these assets and liabilities within the measurement period (not to exceed one year from the dates of acquisition), the Company will refine its estimates of fair value to allocate the purchase price. The operating results of the acquired office supply distribution businesses are combined with the Company’s operating results subsequent to their purchase dates, and are included in the Business Solutions Division. Certain disclosures set forth under ASC 805, including supplemental pro forma financial information, are not disclosed because the operating results of the acquired businesses, individually and in the aggregate, are not material to the Company.
Based on new information received, the preliminary purchase price allocations of the companies acquired in 2019 have been adjusted during the respective measurement periods. These adjustments were insignificant individually and in the aggregate to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The measurement periods for acquisitions completed in the first half of 2019 closed within the first half of 2020.
Under the guidance on accounting for business combinations, merger and integration costs are not included as components of consideration transferred, instead, they are accounted for as expenses in the period in which the costs are incurred. Transaction-related expenses are included in the Merger and restructuring expenses, net line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Note 3 for additional information about the merger and restructuring expenses incurred during the second quarter and first half of 2020.

RESTRUCTURING EXPENSES
Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan
In May 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan to realign the Company’s operational focus to support its “business-to-business” solutions and IT services business units and improve costs (“Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan”). Implementation of the Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan is expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2023. The Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan aims to generate savings through optimizing the Company’s retail footprint, removing costs that directly support the Retail business and additional measures to implement a company-wide low-cost business model, which will then be invested in accelerating the growth of our business-to-business platform. The plan is broader than restructuring programs we have implemented in the past and includes closing and/or consolidating distribution facilities and retail stores and the reduction of approximately i 13,100 employee positions by the end of 2023. The Company is evaluating the number of retail store and distribution facility closures and/or consolidations, as well as the timing of any such closures and/or consolidations, however it is generally understood that closures will approximate the store’s lease termination date. It is estimated that approximately i 73 retail stores and i one distribution facility will be closed by the end of 2020. Such closures are in addition to the closures the Company anticipates in connection with the Business Acceleration Plan, as discussed below. There were no closures or consolidations under the Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan during the second quarter of 2020. Total estimated restructuring costs related to the Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan are expected to be approximately $ i 143 million, comprised of:
|
|
(a) |
severance costs of approximately $ i 55 million; |
|
|
(b) |
facility closure costs of approximately $ i 51 million, which are mainly related to retail stores; and |
|
|
(c) |
other costs, including contract termination costs, to facilitate the execution of the Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan of approximately $ i 37 million. |
The total costs of approximately $ i 143 million above are expected to be cash expenditures through 2023 funded primarily with cash on hand and cash from operations.

For product sales, transfer of control occurs at a point in time, typically upon delivery to the customer. For service offerings, the transfer of control and satisfaction of the performance obligation is either over time or at a point in time. When performance obligations are satisfied over time, the Company evaluates the pattern of delivery and progress each reporting period and, if necessary, adjusts the measure of performance and related revenue recognition. Revenue is recognized net of allowance for returns and net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. Shipping and handling costs are considered fulfillment activities and are recognized within the Company’s cost of goods sold.
Contracts with customers could include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment. Determining the standalone selling price also requires judgment. The Company did not have significant revenues generated from such contracts in the first halves of 2020 and 2019.
Products are generally sold with a right of return and the Company may provide other incentives, such as rebates and coupons, which are accounted for as variable consideration when estimating the amount of revenue to recognize. The Company estimates returns and incentives at contract inception and includes the amount in the transaction price for which significant reversal is not probable. These estimates are updated at the end of each reporting period as additional information becomes available.
The Company offers a customer loyalty program that provides customers with rewards that can be applied to future purchases or other incentives. Loyalty rewards are accounted for as a separate performance obligation and deferred revenue is recorded in the amount of the transaction price allocated to the rewards, inclusive of the impact of estimated breakage. The estimated breakage of loyalty

rewards is based on historical redemption rates experienced under the loyalty program. Revenue is recognized when the loyalty rewards are redeemed or expire. As of June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the Company had $ i 10 million and $ i 12 million of deferred revenue related to the loyalty program, respectively, which is included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company recognizes revenue in certain circumstances before product delivery occurs (commonly referred to as bill-and-hold transactions). Revenue from bill-and-hold transactions is recognized when all specific requirements for transfer of control under a bill-and-hold arrangement have been met which include, among other things, a request from the customer that the product be held for future scheduled delivery. For these bill-and-hold arrangements, the associated product inventory is identified separately as belonging to the customer and is ready for physical transfer.
iCONTRACT BALANCES
The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. A receivable is recognized in the period the Company delivers goods or provides services, and is recorded at the invoiced amount, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. A receivable is also recognized for unbilled services where the Company’s right to consideration is unconditional, and is recorded based on an estimate of time and materials. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 20 to 60 days. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, the Company has determined that the contracts do not include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of the Company’s invoicing terms is to provide customers with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing its products and services.
The Company receives payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Contract assets include amounts related to deferred contract acquisition costs (refer to the section “Costs to Obtain a Contract” below) and if applicable, the Company’s conditional right to consideration for completed performance under a contract. The short- and long-term components of contract assets in the table below are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets, and Other assets, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract liabilities include payments received in advance of performance under the contract, which are recognized as revenue when the performance obligation is completed under the contract, as well as accrued contract acquisition costs, liabilities related to the Company’s loyalty program and gift cards. The short- and long-term components of contract liabilities in the table below are included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and Deferred income taxes and other long-term liabilities, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In the first halves of 2020 and 2019, the Company did i i no / t have any contract assets related to conditional rights. The Company recognized revenues of $ i 19 million and $ i 22 million in the first halves of 2020 and 2019, respectively, which were included in the short-term contract liability balance at the beginning of each respective period. There were i i no / contract assets and liabilities that were recognized in the first halves of 2020 and 2019 as a result of business combinations. There were i i no / significant adjustments to revenue from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods and there were i i no / contract assets recognized at the beginning of each respective period that transferred to receivables in the first halves of 2020 and 2019.
A majority of the purchase orders and statements of work related to contracts with customers require delivery of the product or service within one year or less. For certain service contracts that exceed one year, the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed. Accordingly, the Company has applied the optional exemption provided by the new revenue recognition standard relating to unsatisfied performance obligations and does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for its contracts.
/ iCOSTS TO OBTAIN A CONTRACT
The Company recognizes an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if it expects the benefit of those costs to be longer than one year. The Company has determined that certain rebate incentive programs meet the requirements to be capitalized. These costs are periodically reviewed for impairment, and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period

of benefit. As of June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, capitalized acquisition costs amounted to $ i 36 million and $ i 40 million, respectively, and are reflected in short-term contract assets and long-term contract assets in the table above. In the second quarter and first half of 2020, amortization expense was $ i 7 million and $ i 15 million, respectively. In the second quarter and first half of 2019, amortization expenses was $ i 8 million and $ i 17 million, respectively. The Company had i i i i no / / / asset impairment charges related to contract assets in the periods presented herein. There is uncertainty regarding the impacts of COVID-19, the novel coronavirus disease that was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, on the global and national economies, which could negatively affect our customers and result in future impairments of contract assets.
iNOTE 5. SEGMENT INFORMATION
At June 27, 2020, the Company had i three reportable segments: Business Solutions Division, Retail Division and the CompuCom Division. The Business Solutions Division sells nationally branded as well as the Company’s private branded office supply and adjacency products and services to customers in the United States, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Canada. Business Solutions Division customers are served through a dedicated sales force, catalogs, telesales, and electronically through the Company’s Internet websites. The Retail Division includes a chain of retail stores in the United States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, which sell office supplies, technology products and solutions, business machines and related supplies, cleaning, breakroom and facilities products, and office furniture as well as offer business services including copying, printing, digital imaging, mailing, shipping and technology support services. In addition, the print needs for retail and business customers are also facilitated through the Company’s regional print production centers. The CompuCom Division provides IT services and products to enterprise organizations in the United States and Canada, and offers a broad range of solutions including technology lifecycle management, end user computing and collaboration, service desk, remote technology monitoring and management, and IT workforce solutions.
The retained global sourcing operations previously included in the former International Division are not significant and have been presented as Other. Also included in Other is the elimination of intersegment revenues of $ i 3 million and $ i 7 million for the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, and $ i 3 million and $ i 6 million for the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively.
The products and services offered by the Business Solutions Division and the Retail Division are similar, but the CompuCom Division’s offerings are focused on IT services and related products. The Company’s i three operating segments are its i three reportable segments. The Business Solutions Division, the Retail Division and the CompuCom Division are managed separately as they represent separate channels in the way the Company serves its customers, and they are managed accordingly. The accounting policies for each segment are the same as those described in Note 1 of the 2019 Form 10-K. Division operating income is determined based on the measure of performance reported internally to manage the business and for resource allocation. This measure charges to the respective Divisions those expenses considered directly or closely related to their operations and allocates support costs. Certain operating expenses and credits are not allocated to the Business Solutions Division, the Retail Division or the CompuCom Division, including asset impairments and merger and restructuring expenses, as well as expenses and credits retained at the Corporate level, including certain management costs and legacy pension and environmental matters. Other companies may charge more or less of these items to their segments and results may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities. In addition, the Company regularly evaluates the appropriateness of the reportable segments based on how the business is managed, including decision-making about resources allocation and assessing performance of the segments, particularly in light of organizational changes, merger and acquisition activity and changing laws and regulations. Therefore, the current reportable segments may change in the future.

Refer to Note 2 for additional information on the acquisitions made during the first half of 2020.
Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually as of the first day of fiscal December or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. During the second quarter of 2020, due to the macroeconomic impacts of COVID-19 on the Company's current and projected future results of operations, the Company determined that an indicator of potential impairment existed to require an interim quantitative goodwill impairment test for its CompuCom and Contract reporting units. The Contract reporting unit is a component of the Business Solutions Division segment. The quantitative goodwill impairment test indicated that the carrying value of the CompuCom and Contract reporting units exceeded their fair value by $ i 237 million and $ i 115 million, respectively. As a result, the Company recorded partial goodwill impairment charges of $ i 237 million and $ i 115 million in the second quarter of 2020 associated with the CompuCom and Contract reporting units, respectively. These non-cash impairment charges are presented within the Asset Impairment line in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. After the impairment charges, the CompuCom reporting unit has remaining goodwill of $ i 210 million, and the Contract reporting unit has remaining goodwill of $ i 230 million as of June 27, 2020.
The decline in the fair values of the CompuCom and Contract reporting units resulted from macroeconomic impacts of COVID-19, particularly as it relates to the restrictions and closures imposed on their business customers, which lowered the projected revenue growth rates and profitability levels of the reporting units. The duration of the impacts of the pandemic are expected to be longer than anticipated in the first quarter of 2020, which has significantly impacted the Company’s expectations on timing for its customers returning back to levels of historical operations. For its CompuCom reporting unit, the Company had begun to experience a decline in project-based service revenue due to customer-imposed deferrals late in the first quarter of 2020. During the second quarter of 2020, declines in project-based service revenue continued to deteriorate at a faster pace due to both customer-imposed deferrals and

cancellations. The Company also started to experience declines in its annuity-based service revenue from reduced service volume and declines in its product revenue from deferred or cancelled customer spend on product purchases, due to the continued disruption in the activities of its business customers during the second quarter of 2020. For its Contract reporting unit, the Company had begun experiencing decreased demand for its core product and service offerings late in the first quarter of 2020, mainly as a result of the temporary closure of nonessential businesses which constitute a portion of this reporting unit’s customers, along with the transition of many other business customers to a work-from-home environment. The disruption on the Contract reporting unit’s business customers continued through the second quarter of 2020 as a portion of these businesses are still operating at reduced activity levels or are closed. During the second quarter, the opportunities related to increased sales in cleaning and breakroom supplies and personal protective equipment also did not materialize at levels that were anticipated. In addition, the consideration of incremental risk associated with the uncertainty related to the pace of the economic recovery was also a factor that contributed to the decline in the fair values of both reporting units.
The fair value estimates for both reporting units were based on a blended analysis of the present value of future discounted cash flows and market value approach. The significant estimates used in the discounted cash flow model included the Company’s weighted average cost of capital, projected cash flows and the long-term rate of growth. The assumptions were based on the actual historical performance of the reporting units and took into account the recent and continued weakening of operating results as well as the anticipated rate of recovery, and implied risk premiums based on market prices of our equity and debt as of the assessment date. Significant estimates in the market approach model included identifying similar companies with comparable business factors such as size, growth, profitability, risk and return on investment and assessing comparable revenue and earnings multiples in estimating the fair value of the reporting units. CompuCom’s tradename, which is an indefinite-lived intangible asset, was also tested for impairment using the relief from royalty method and was determined to be impaired as its carrying value exceeded its fair value by $ i 11 million. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $ i 11 million in the second quarter of 2020 related to this asset.
The Company did not identify indicators of impairment related to its other reporting units, which mainly serve consumers through our retail stores and eCommerce platform and have been performing in accordance with forecasts. The Company will continue to evaluate the recoverability of goodwill at the reporting unit level on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate there may be a potential impairment.

NOTE 6. INCOME TAXES
The Company’s effective tax rate for the second quarter and first half of 2020 differs from the statutory rate of i i 21 / % primarily due to the impact of goodwill impairment, state taxes, excess tax deficiencies associated with stock-based compensation awards and certain nondeductible items, adjustments to certain tax benefits and the mix of income and losses across U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions. The Company’s effective tax rates in prior periods have varied considerably as a result of several primary factors including the mix of income and losses across U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions, the impact of excess tax deficiencies associated with stock-based compensation awards and the derecognition of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets that were not more-likely-than-not realizable in the U.S. and certain non-U.S. jurisdictions. During 2020 and 2019, the mix of income and losses across jurisdictions, although still applicable, has become less of a factor in influencing the Company’s effective tax rates due to the dispositions of the international businesses and improved operating results. As a result, the Company’s effective tax rates are i 8% for the second quarter and i 4% for the first half of 2020, and i 23% for the second quarter and i 24% for the first half of 2019. Changes in pretax income projections and the mix of income across jurisdictions could impact the effective tax rate in future quarters.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act repealed the corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (“AMT”) and allows unutilized AMT credits to be refunded. i For tax years 2018 through 2020, taxpayers could receive i 50% of their uncredited balances as a cash refund with any remaining amounts refunded in full in 2021. / As of year end 2019, the Company determined it was more-likely-than-not that $ i 22 million of its AMT credits would be refunded and was expected to be received in the third quarter of 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted. The CARES Act allows for the Company to refund i 100% of its remaining AMT credits in 2020. The Company filed for the remaining $ i 22 million in the second quarter of 2020 for a total refund of $ i 44 million. The Company received the entire $ i 44 million in the third quarter of 2020. The Company continues to evaluate the other provisions of the CARES Act to determine if they would have any material impact.
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company net settled its Timber notes receivable and Non-recourse debt. The Company has previously recorded a deferred tax liability related to the taxes deferred from the original transaction. The deferred liability was realized in the first quarter of 2020. It is anticipated that certain capital loss carryforwards, available tax credits and net operating losses will offset the resulting gain and no material cash income taxes will be due upon the realization.
The Company continues to have a U.S. valuation allowance for certain U.S. federal credits and state tax attributes, which relate to deferred tax assets that require certain types of income or for income to be earned in certain jurisdictions in order to be realized. The Company will continue to assess the realizability of its deferred tax assets in the U.S. and remaining foreign jurisdictions in future periods. Changes in pretax income projections could impact this evaluation in future periods.
The Company files a U.S. federal income tax return and other income tax returns in various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal and state and local income tax examinations for years prior to 2017 and 2013, respectively. The acquired OfficeMax U.S. consolidated group is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination, and with few exceptions, is no longer subject to U.S. state and local income tax examinations for years prior to 2013. The Company’s U.S. federal income tax return for 2017 is currently under review. Generally, the Company is subject to routine examination for years 2012 and forward in its international tax jurisdictions.
It is anticipated that $ i 4 million of tax positions will be resolved within the next 12 months. Additionally, the Company anticipates that it is reasonably possible that new issues will be raised or resolved by tax authorities that may require changes to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits; however, an estimate of such changes cannot be reasonably made.

Awards of stock options and nonvested shares representing less than i i 1 / million additional shares of common stock were outstanding for both the second quarter and first half of 2020, and less than i i 1 / million for both the second quarter and first half of 2019, but were not included in the computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding because their effect would have been antidilutive.
After obtaining approval of the Company’s shareholders on May 11, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors determined to set a reverse stock split ratio of 1-for-10 for a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, and a reduction in the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock by a corresponding ratio. The reverse stock split was effective on June 30, 2020. All share and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to this reverse stock split.
/ iNOTE 8. DEBT
In connection with the consummation of the acquisition of CompuCom, the Company entered into a credit agreement, dated as of November 8, 2017 (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”), which provided for a $ i 750 million term loan facility with a maturity date of i November 8, 2022. The Term Loan Credit Agreement was amended in November 2018. The Term Loan Credit Agreement was repaid in full and terminated in April 2020, as further described below.
In May 2011, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement, which was further amended and restated in May 2016, December 2016 and November 2017 (the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement including all amendments is referred to as the “Amended Credit Agreement”). On April 17, 2020, the Company entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Third Amended Credit Agreement”), which provides for a $ i 1.2 billion asset-based revolving credit facility and a $ i 100 million asset-based first-in, last-out term loan facility, for an aggregate principal amount of up to $ i 1.3 billion (the “New Facilities”). The New Facilities mature in April 2025. The Third Amended Credit Agreement replaces the Company’s existing Amended Credit Agreement that was due to mature in May 2021. The Company incurred approximately $ i 6 million of new debt issuance costs under the Third Amended Credit Agreement, which will be recognized in interest expense through April 2025, the maturity date of the New Facilities.
Upon the closing of the transaction, the Company made an initial borrowing in the amount of $ i 400 million under the New Facilities in the second quarter of 2020. These proceeds, along with available cash on hand, were used to repay in full the remaining $ i 388 million balance under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and terminate it and to repay approximately $ i 66 million of borrowings and interest associated with our company owned life insurance policies, which, prior to their repayment were presented as a reduction to the company owned insurance policies asset balances within Other Assets. The Company recognized $ i 12 million of loss from extinguishment and modification of debt related to this transaction in the second quarter of 2020, which primarily included the write-off of the remaining unamortized original issue discount and debt issuance costs of the Term Loan Credit Agreement as of the closing date of the transaction.

TREASURY STOCK
In November 2018, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program of up to $ i 100 million of its common stock effective January 1, 2019, which extends until the end of 2020. In November 2019, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the authorization of the existing stock repurchase program of up to $ i 200 million and extended the program through the end of 2021. The current authorization includes the remaining authorized amount under the existing stock repurchase program. The exact timing of share repurchases will depend on market conditions and other factors, and will be funded through available cash balances. As a result of the continued economic uncertainty due to COVID-19, the Board of Directors temporarily suspended the stock repurchase program on i May 5, 2020, however, the repurchase authorization remains effective.
Under the stock repurchase program before its temporary suspension, the Company purchased approximately i 22 thousand shares of its common stock at a cost of less than $ i 1 million in the second quarter of 2020 and approximately i 1 million shares of its common stock at a cost of $ i 30 million in the first half of 2020. The share amounts of share repurchases have been retroactively adjusted for the impact of the i 1-for-10 reverse stock split disclosed in Note 1 above. As of June 27, 2020, approximately $ i 130 million remains available for stock repurchases under the current stock repurchase program that remains temporarily suspended.
At June 27, 2020, there were i 10 million common shares held in treasury, which has been retroactively adjusted for the impact of the i 1-for-10 reverse stock split disclosed in Note 1 above. The Company’s Third Amended Credit Agreement included certain covenants on restricted payments such as common stock repurchases, based on the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio, liquidity and borrowing availability. Refer to Note 8 for additional information about the Company’s compliance with financial covenants.
DIVIDENDS ON COMMON STOCK
In order to preserve liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic and in light of the uncertainties as to its duration and economic impact, on i May 5, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors temporarily suspended the Company’s quarterly cash dividend beginning in the second quarter of 2020. There was no quarterly cash dividend declared and paid in the second quarter of 2020. Prior to the temporary suspension of the Company’s quarterly cash dividend, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $ i 0.25 per share on its common stock, resulting in total cash payments of $ i 13 million in the first half of 2020. Dividends have been recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital as the Company is in an accumulated deficit position. Payment of dividends is permitted under the Company’s Third Amended Credit Agreement provided that the Company has the required minimum liquidity or fixed charge coverage ratio, but may be limited if the Company does not meet the necessary requirements. Refer to Note 8 for additional information about the Company’s compliance with financial covenants.

/ iNOTE 11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company measures fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. In developing its fair value estimates, the Company uses the following hierarchy:
|
Level 1: |
|
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
|
|
|
|
|
Level 2: |
|
Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. |
|
|
|
|
|
Level 3: |
|
Significant unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. Generally, these fair value measures are model-based valuation techniques such as discounted cash flows or option pricing models using the Company’s own estimates and assumptions or those expected to be used by market participants. |
RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
In accordance with GAAP, certain assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company’s assets and liabilities that are adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis are money market funds that qualify as cash equivalents, and derivative financial instruments, which may be entered into to mitigate risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates, fuel and other commodity prices and interest rates. Amounts associated with derivative instruments were not significant.
NONRECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company records certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required by GAAP. Generally, assets are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges. In the second quarter and first half of 2020, the Company recognized asset impairment charges
24
THE ODP CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited) – (Continued)
of $ i 401 million and $ i 413 million, respectively. Of these asset impairment charges, $ i 363 million was related to impairment of goodwill in the Contract and CompuCom reporting units and other intangible assets in the second quarter of 2020, and $ i 25 million and $ i 35 million in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, were related to impairment of operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets associated with the Company’s retail store locations, with the remainder primarily relating to impairment of fixed assets and a cost method investment. All impairment charges discussed in the sections below are presented in Asset impairments in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Note 5 for additional information on goodwill impairment charges.
The Company regularly reviews retail store assets for impairment indicators at the individual store level, as this represents the lowest level of identifiable cash flows. When indicators of impairment are present, a recoverability analysis is performed which considers the estimated undiscounted cash flows over the retail store’s remaining life and uses input from retail operations and accounting and finance personnel. These inputs include management’s best estimates of retail store-level sales, gross margins, direct expenses, exercise of future lease renewal options when reasonably certain to be exercised, and resulting cash flows, by their nature, include judgments about how current initiatives will impact future performance. In the second quarter and first half of 2020, the assumptions used within the recoverability analysis for the retail stores were updated to consider current quarter retail store operational results and formal plans for future retail store closures as part of the Company’s restructuring programs, including the probability of closure at the retail store level. While it is generally understood that closures will approximate the store’s lease termination date, it is possible that changes in store performance or other conditions could result in future changes in assumptions utilized. These assumptions reflected declining sales over the forecast period, and gross margin and operating cost assumptions that are consistent with recent actual results and consider plans for future initiatives. The Company also analyzed the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on store asset recoverability. Due to the nature of products sold, the retail stores were considered to be essential retail commerce by most local jurisdictions and as a result, the substantial majority of these stores remained open and operational with the appropriate safety measures in place during the COVID-19 outbreak. Since late in the first quarter of 2020, the Company has temporarily reduced retail location hours by two hours daily and provides the option of curbside pickup at all locations, with a small number of locations solely providing curbside pickup. The Company’s recoverability assessment included evaluating the impact of these developments.
If the undiscounted cash flows of a retail store cannot support the carrying amount of its assets, the assets are impaired if necessary and written down to estimated fair value. The fair value of retail store assets is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis which uses Level 2 unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data such as real estate broker’s opinions. Specifically, the analysis uses assumptions of potential rental rates for each retail store location which are based on market data for comparable locations. These estimated cash flows used in the second quarter and first half of 2020 impairment calculation were discounted at a weighted average discount rate of i i 8 / %.
The Company will continue to evaluate initiatives to improve performance and lower operating costs. There is uncertainty regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the future results of operations, including the forecast period used in the recoverability analysis. To the extent that forward-looking sales and operating assumptions are not achieved and are subsequently reduced, additional impairment charges may result. However, at the end of the second quarter of 2020, the impairment recognized reflects the Company’s best estimate of future performance.
OTHER FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, trade accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their carrying values because of their short-term nature.

THE ODP CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited) – (Continued)
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:
|
|
• |
Timber notes receivable: Fair value is determined as the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the current interest rate for loans of similar terms with comparable credit risk (Level 2 measure). The Timber notes receivable matured on January 29, 2020. Refer to Note 8 for additional information about the Timber notes receivable. |
|
|
• |
Company-owned life insurance: In connection with the 2013 OfficeMax merger, the Company acquired company-owned life insurance policies on certain former employees. The fair value of the company-owned life insurance policies is derived using determinable net cash surrender value, which is the cash surrender value less any outstanding loans (Level 2 measure). As disclosed in Note 8, all outstanding loans associated with company-owned life insurance policies were repaid during the second quarter of 2020. |
|
|
• |
Recourse debt: Recourse debt, for which there were no transactions on the measurement date, was valued based on quoted market prices near the measurement date when available or by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument using rates based on the most recently observable trade or using rates currently offered to the Company for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities (Level 2 measure). The carrying amount of the revolving credit facility under the Third Amended Credit Agreement approximates fair value because the interest rates vary with market interest rates. The Term Loan Credit Agreement originally due in 2022 was repaid in full and terminated in April 2020. Refer to Note 8 for additional information about the Third Amended Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Credit Agreement. |
|
|
• |
Non-recourse debt: Fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of the instrument at rates currently available to the Company for similar instruments of comparable maturities (Level 2 measure). The Non-recourse debt matured on January 29, 2020. Refer to Note 8 for additional information about the Non-recourse debt. |
NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
LEGAL MATTERS
The Company is involved in litigation arising in the normal course of business. While, from time to time, claims are asserted that make demands for a large sum of money (including, from time to time, actions which are asserted to be maintainable as class action suits), the Company does not believe that contingent liabilities related to these matters (including the matters discussed below), either individually or in the aggregate, will materially affect the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In addition, in the ordinary course of business, sales to and transactions with government customers may be subject to lawsuits, investigations, audits and review by governmental authorities and regulatory agencies, with which the Company cooperates. Many of these lawsuits, investigations, audits and reviews are resolved without material impact to the Company. While claims in these matters may at times assert large demands, the Company does not believe that contingent liabilities related to these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, will materially affect its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In May 2017, the Office of Attorney General, State of Texas (''Texas AG'') issued a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) to the Company requiring the Company to produce certain documents and materials and to answer certain interrogatories relating to PC Healthcheck, a software program manufactured by a third-party vendor and provided to the Company for its customers prior to December 31, 2016. The Company continues to cooperate with the Texas AG with respect to its investigation. At this time, it is difficult to predict the timing, the likely outcome, and/or potential range of loss, if any, of this matter.
In addition to the foregoing, OfficeMax is named as a defendant in a number of lawsuits, claims, and proceedings arising out of the operation of certain paper and forest products assets prior to those assets being sold in 2004, for which OfficeMax agreed to retain responsibility. Also, as part of that sale, OfficeMax agreed to retain responsibility for all pending or threatened proceedings and future proceedings alleging asbestos-related injuries arising out of the operation of the paper and forest products assets prior to the closing of the sale. The Company has made provision for losses with respect to the pending proceedings. Additionally, as of June 27, 2020, the Company has made provision for environmental liabilities with respect to certain sites where hazardous substances or other contaminants are or may be located. For these liabilities, our estimated range of reasonably possible losses was approximately $ i 10 million to $ i 20 million. The Company regularly monitors its estimated exposure to these liabilities. As additional information becomes known, these estimates may change, however, the Company does not believe any of these OfficeMax retained proceedings are material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Additionally, BSD provides adjacency products and services including cleaning and breakroom supplies, technology services, copy and print services, and office furniture products and services in the United States, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Canada through a dedicated sales force, catalogs, telesales, and electronically through our Internet websites. BSD includes the distribution businesses we have acquired as part of our strategic transformation described in the section below.
The Retail Division includes our chain of retail stores in the United States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands where we sell office supplies, technology products and solutions, business machines and related supplies, print, cleaning, breakroom supplies and facilities products, and furniture. In addition, our Retail Division offers a range of business-related services targeted to small businesses, technology support services as well as printing, copying, mailing and shipping services.
The CompuCom Division was formed during the fourth quarter of 2017 as a result of our acquisition of CompuCom Systems, Inc. (“CompuCom”). The CompuCom Division is a technology services provider supporting the distributed technology needs of enterprise organizations in the United States and Canada. With a vision of connecting people, technology, and the edge with a seamless experience, CompuCom enables enterprise employees to be productive. CompuCom offers a broad range of solutions including technology lifecycle management, end user computing and collaboration, service desk, remote technology monitoring and management, and IT workforce solutions.

STRATEGIC TRANSFORMATION
Since 2017, we have been undergoing a strategic business transformation to pivot Office Depot into an integrated B2B distribution platform, with the objective of expanding our product offerings to include value-added services for our customers and capture greater market share. As part of this transformation, we acquired CompuCom in 2017 and an enterprise IT solutions integrator and managed services provider in 2018.
We continue to expand our reach and distribution network through acquisitions of profitable regional office supply distribution businesses, serving small and mid-market customers. Many of these customers are in geographic areas that were previously underserved by our network. During the first half of 2020, we acquired three small independent regional office supply distribution businesses which has allowed for an effective and accretive means to expand our distribution reach, target new business customers and grow our offerings beyond traditional office supplies.
The aggregate total purchase consideration, including contingent consideration, for the three acquisitions completed in the first half of 2020 was approximately $20 million, subject to certain customary post-closing adjustments. The aggregate purchase price was primarily funded with cash on hand, with the remainder consisting of contingent consideration estimated to be $2 million, which will be paid in two installments in the second quarters of 2021 and 2022, respectively.
The operating results of the acquired office supply distribution businesses are combined with our operating results subsequent to their purchase dates, and are included in the Business Solutions Division, and the operating results of CompuCom and the enterprise IT solutions integrator and managed services provider are included in the CompuCom Division. Refer to Note 2. “Acquisitions” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
STOCK SPLIT AND CORPORATE REORGANIZATION
After obtaining approval of our shareholders on May 11, 2020, our Board of Directors determined to set a reverse stock split ratio of 1-for-10 for a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, and a reduction in the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock by a corresponding ratio. The reverse stock split was effective on June 30, 2020.
On March 31, 2020, our Board of Directors approved proceeding with the implementation of a Reorganization of the Company's corporate structure into a holding company structure. The Reorganization was completed on June 30, 2020, and Office Depot became a wholly owned subsidiary of a new holding company, The ODP Corporation, which replaced Office Depot as the public company trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market under Office Depot’s current ticker symbol “ODP”. Outstanding shares of Office Depot automatically converted into shares of common stock of The ODP Corporation. The holding company reorganization simplifies the Company’s legal entity and tax structure, more closely aligns our operating assets to their respective operating channels within the legal entity structure, and is intended to increase its operational flexibility. It has not resulted in a change in the directors, executive officers, management or business of the Company. In addition, the Reorganization is intended to be a tax-free transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes for our shareholders.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the current outbreak of a novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic. In response to this declaration and with the rapid spread of COVID-19 globally and throughout the United States, federal, state and local authorities have declared states of emergency and imposed varying degrees of restrictions on social and commercial activities, including travel restrictions and curfews, in order to promote social distancing in an effort to prevent and slow the spread of the disease. These restrictive measures have had significant adverse impacts on the national economy during the first half of 2020 and have continued into the third quarter of 2020.
From the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have made supporting the health and wellness of our employees and customers a priority. Due to the nature of products sold in our retail locations and integrated business-to-business distribution platform, our business is considered to be essential retail commerce by most local jurisdictions and has remained open and operational. Based upon the guidance of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (“CDC”) and local health authorities, we have put appropriate measures in place to help reduce the spread of infection to our employees and customers, including the institution of social distancing protocols and increased frequency of cleaning and sanitizing in those facilities. Since March 2020, employees who are able to, have been working from home, with only essential employees in customer support and distribution centers working on site at our facilities. We have also limited employee travel to only essential business needs.
During the second quarter of 2020, we experienced higher than forecasted customer demand at our retail locations and on our eCommerce platform. However, overall demand has declined significantly as a result of the disruptions experienced by our business customers from restrictions on commercial activities and social distancing measures, and we expect these demand fluctuations to continue through 2020. In response to the volatility resulting from the pandemic, we are taking measures to protect our financial position during this challenging time period. These measures include creating contingency plans for merchandise categories that may be in high demand, adjusting our inventory levels, reducing certain occupancy costs, reducing nonessential expenses, and reducing our capital spend, among others. In addition, we have proactively adopted a more conservative approach to our capital return program to
28
preserve maximum liquidity and financial flexibility in the current environment and have temporarily suspended our share repurchases and quarterly cash dividend beginning with the second quarter of 2020.
Toward the end of the second quarter of 2020, states and local jurisdictions have started to phase out restrictions imposed on commercial activities at varying degrees. We continue to assess our outlook on a daily basis, but we are unable to accurately predict the pace and shape of the recovery from COVID-19 due to numerous uncertainties, including the duration or any future recurrence of the outbreak, actions that may be taken by governmental authorities, additional disruption to the economy and consumers’ willingness and ability to spend, temporary or permanent closures of our business customers, supply chain disruptions and other unforeseeable consequences. As a result, weaker global economic conditions and increased unemployment, including continued business disruption relating to the COVID-19 outbreak and resulting governmental actions may continue to negatively impact our business and results of operations in future quarters of 2020 and beyond, as well as result in future impairments of our assets.
CONSOLIDATED RESULTS AND LIQUIDITY
The following summarizes the more significant factors impacting our operating results for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 27, 2020 (also referred to as the “second quarter of 2020” and “the first half of 2020,” respectively) and June 29, 2019 (also referred to as the “second quarter of 2019” and “the first half of 2019,” respectively).
Our consolidated sales were 17% and 9% lower in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior year. These period-over-period decreases were primarily driven by lower sales in our Business Solutions Division, which decreased 23% and 12% during the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, primarily due to temporary closures of certain enterprise customers and a transition to a work-from-home environment in response to the restrictions imposed by local authorities to prevent and reduce the spread of COVID-19. This decrease was partially offset by higher revenue generated by our eCommerce platform, which is included in our Business Solutions Division. Sales in our Retail Division decreased 9% and 5% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, due to planned store closures coupled with lower sales in existing locations due to reduced customer traffic. Our CompuCom Division also experienced lower sales of 17% and 11% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, when compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to certain customer mandated delays of previously scheduled projects as a result of COVID-19 business disruption and lower product sales and service volume.

Product sales in the second quarter and first half of 2020 decreased 15% and 8%, respectively, from the comparative prior year periods, primarily driven by lower sales in the Business Solutions Division as a result of temporary closures and transition to work-from-home and learn-from-home environments of certain enterprise customers due to COVID-19, as described above, and was partially offset by an increase in product sales generated by our eCommerce platform
Sales of services in the second quarter and first half of 2020 decreased 26% and 15%, respectively, primarily driven by a decline in sales of services in our CompuCom Division as a result of customer imposed delays of previously scheduled and postponed new projects and reduced business volume. Sales of services were also impacted by the decline of our copy and print services in our Retail Division and Business Solutions Division due to the impacts of COVID-19, including shelter-in-place orders and the temporary closures of nonessential businesses. On a consolidated basis, services represented approximately 14% of our total sales in both the second quarter and first half of 2020, as compared to 16% and 15%, respectively, in the second quarter and first half of 2019.

OTHER SIGNIFICANT FACTORS IMPACTING TOTAL COMPANY RESULTS AND LIQUIDITY
|
|
• |
Total gross profit decreased by $169 million or 29%, and $181 million or 15%, in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2019. The decrease in gross profit was largely driven by the flow through impact of lower sales in our Business Solutions Division and Retail Division, which consisted of $109 million and $50 million of the decrease in gross profit, respectively. The remaining decrease of $9 million was attributable to our CompuCom Division. These reductions were partially offset by the savings generated from the implementation of the Business |
29
|
|
Acceleration Program, which among other things, optimized labor costs in our CompuCom Division, and acquisitions within our Business Solutions Division. |
|
|
• |
Total gross margin for the second quarter and first half of 2020 was 19% and 21%, respectively, which were lower than the comparative prior year periods which were both 23%. The lower gross margin is mainly driven by the deleveraging impact of supply chain and occupancy costs as a result of lower sales in the second quarter of 2020. While we incurred incremental costs related to trade tariffs on inventory we purchase from suppliers in China, our recent actions, including changes to our contracting model, alternative sourcing strategies, and selective price increase pass-through efforts mitigated much of the impact of such trade tariffs to our results of operations. |
|
|
• |
Total selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $109 million or 21%, and $162 million or 15% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2019. The decrease was the result of store closures in our Retail Division and certain strategic initiatives, including the Business Acceleration Program, aimed at reducing our spend on payroll and payroll-related costs and other discretionary expenses such as professional fees, contingent labor, travel and marketing. The decreases in total selling, general, and administrative expenses in the second quarter and first half of 2020 were partially offset by increases in expenses associated with the expansion of our distribution network through acquisitions within our Business Solutions Division. |
|
|
• |
We recorded $65 million and $81 million of merger and restructuring expenses, net in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, compared to $69 million and $83 million in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. Merger and restructuring expenses in the second quarter and first half of 2020 includes $7 million and $14 million, respectively, of severance, retention, transaction and integration costs associated with business acquisitions and $58 million and $67 million, respectively, of expenses associated with restructuring activities. Refer to Note 3. “Merger and Restructuring Activity” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. |
|
|
• |
We recorded $401 million and $413 million of asset impairment charges in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, which included $363 million related to goodwill in our Contract and CompuCom reporting units and other intangible assets impairment in the second quarter of 2020, and $25 million and $35 million in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, related to impairment of operating lease ROU assets associated with our retail store locations, with the remainder primarily relating to impairment of fixed assets and a cost method investment. We recorded $16 million and $45 million of asset impairment charges in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively, which primarily related to impairment of operating lease ROU assets associated with our retail store locations. Refer to Note 11. “Fair Value Measurements” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. |
|
|
• |
In April 2020, we repaid the remaining balance under the Term Loan Credit Agreement in full and terminated it. We recognized $12 million of loss from the extinguishment and modification of debt related to this transaction in the second quarter of 2020, which primarily included the write-off of the remaining unamortized original issue discount and debt issuance costs of the Term Loan Credit Agreement. Refer to Note 8. “Debt” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. |
|
|
• |
Our effective tax rates of 8% and 4% for the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, differ from the statutory rate of 21% due to the impact of goodwill impairment, state taxes, excess tax deficiencies associated with stock-based compensation awards and certain nondeductible items, adjustments to certain tax benefits and the mix of income and losses across U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions. Our effective tax rates of 23% and 24% for the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively, were primarily influenced by the impact of excess tax deficiencies associated with stock-based compensation awards the impact of state taxes and certain nondeductible items, adjustments to tax credit benefits, and the mix of income and losses across U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions. Refer to Note 6. “Income Taxes” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. |
|
|
• |
Diluted loss per share was $(8.19) in the second quarter of 2020 compared to diluted loss per share of $(0.43) in the second quarter of 2019. Diluted loss per share was $(7.31) in the first half of 2020 compared to diluted loss per share of $(0.28) in the first half of 2019. |
|
|
• |
In order to preserve liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic and in light of the uncertainties as to its duration and economic impact, on May 5, 2020, our Board of Directors suspended our quarterly cash dividend and our stock repurchase program. In the second quarter of 2020, we did not pay a quarterly cash dividend on our common stock. In the second quarter of 2019, we paid a quarterly cash dividend on our common stock in the amount of $0.25 per share, resulting in total cash payments of $13 million. In each of the first half of 2020 and 2019, we paid total cash dividends of $13 million and $27 million, respectively. |
|
|
• |
At June 27, 2020, we had $762 million in cash and cash equivalents and $708 million of available credit under the Third Amended Credit Agreement, for a total liquidity of approximately $1.5 billion. Cash provided by operating activities was $180 million for the first half of 2020 compared to $2 million in the comparable prior year period. Refer to the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section for further information on cash flows. |

Product sales in our Business Solutions Division decreased 23% and 12% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2019. Both periods reflect the positive impact of acquisitions and growth in cleaning supplies and personal protective equipment. The second quarter and first half of 2020 were impacted by lower demand, especially in product categories such as toner, ink and office supplies due to a portion of our business-to-business customers having to temporarily transition into a work-from-home environment or pause operations as a result of restrictions imposed by federal, state and local authorities. These restrictions, which started in March 2020 and aim to prevent and reduce the spread of COVID-19, have lasted through the second quarter across a majority of the jurisdictions our customers operate in. The lower demand from our business-to-business customers was partially offset by higher sales in our e-Commerce platform, which experienced increased demand during this period as more customers preferred to order online and have their purchases delivered. Product categories that experienced growth in our e-Commerce platform during both periods included printing products and supplies, technology products, cleaning supplies and personal protective equipment. Our e-Commerce platform also benefited from the positive impact of acquisitions.
Sales of services in our Business Solutions Division decreased 25% and 6% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, compared to prior periods. The decrease in both periods is primarily due to lower demand from our business-to-business customers for our managed print and fulfillment services and copy and print services as a result of the impact of restrictions due to COVID-19 on their operations during the second quarter of 2020.
The impacts of the COVID-19 outbreak on the second half of 2020 and the magnitude by which sales of products and services of our Business Solutions Division will be affected will depend heavily on the duration of restrictions imposed by governmental authorities to prevent and reduce the spread of COVID-19 such as social distancing and shelter-in-place mandates, as well as the substance and pace of macroeconomic recovery. However, as discussed above, the impact has been material to the results of the Business Solutions Division in the second quarter and first half of 2020 and could continue into the future quarters of 2020 and beyond.
Our Business Solutions Division operating income was $13 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $86 million in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of 85% period-over-period. The decrease in operating income in the second quarter of 2020 was related to the flow through impact of lower product sales volume coupled with a lower gross profit margin due to higher product costs and the deleveraging of supply chain costs. This was partially offset by a reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses achieved through our Business Acceleration Program. Our Business Solutions Division operating income of $53 million in the first half of 2020 as compared to $132 million in the first half of 2019, decreased 60% period over period, and was driven by the impact of the factors described above for the second quarter of 2020.

Product sales in our Retail Division decreased 4% and 2% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2019. The decrease in product sales was from closing underperforming retail stores coupled with fewer
31
transactions in existing stores, partially offset by the increased demand in essential products such as cleaning and breakroom supplies, technology products, furniture and other work-from-home and learn-from-home enabling products. The increased demand for these product categories was primarily driven by the needs of our customers to help address their challenges derived from the COVID-19 outbreak. Additionally, the increased demand was driven by needs of customers who transitioned into remote work and virtual learning environments in March 2020 as a result of restrictions imposed by federal, state and local authorities in order to prevent and reduce the spread of COVID-19. The demand for these product categories could decrease in the near term related to numerous factors, among others, weaker U.S. economy and higher unemployment that materially impact consumer spending, the demand for our products and services and the availability of supply. Specifically, we have recently experienced supply constraints in our product categories with high demand such as ink, cleaning and breakroom supplies, and technology products, and we may face delays or difficulty sourcing these products.
For the reasons described in the “Recent Developments” section, our business is considered to be essential retail commerce by most local jurisdictions, and as a result, the substantial majority of our retail locations remain open and operational with the appropriate safety measures in place during the COVID-19 outbreak, including the introduction of a curbside pickup option. Since late in first quarter of 2020, we have temporarily reduced all our retail location hours by two hours daily with certain locations solely providing curbside pickup to our customers. We believe sales in our Retail Division may be adversely impacted due to the COVID-19 outbreak in future quarters in 2020. As there is uncertainty of the extent and duration of the impacts of the outbreak, we are unable to estimate the impact at this time.
Product sales were also positively impacted during the quarter by the increase in the volume of transactions where our customers buy online for pick up in our stores (“BOPIS”). BOPIS transactions are included in our Retail Division results because they are fulfilled with retail store inventory and serviced by our retail store associates. Our BOPIS sales have increased 152% and 85% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, from the corresponding prior year periods.
Sales of services in our Retail Division decreased 38% and 25% in the second quarter and the first half of 2020, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2019. The positive momentum we have experienced over the past several quarters from the expansion of our copy and print services and subscription volume was negatively impacted by a reduction in demand due to temporary closures of nonessential businesses, as well as the transition of a significant portion of our customers to a remote work and virtual learning environment, due to COVID-19.
We have historically reported our comparable store sales, which relate to stores that have been open for at least one year. Stores are removed from the comparable sales calculation one month prior to closing, as sales during that period are mostly related to clearance activity. Stores are also removed from the comparable sales calculation during periods of store remodeling, store closures due to hurricanes, natural disasters or epidemics/pandemics, or if significantly downsized. Our measure of comparable store sales has been applied consistently across periods, but may differ from measures used by other companies. Due to the reduction in our retail location hours with certain locations solely providing curbside pickup to our customers due to COVID-19, and the variability in COVID-19 related restrictions imposed by state and local governments such as occupancy levels and business regulations that can affect demand for our in-store products and services, comparable store sales are not a meaningful metric for the second quarter and first half of 2020, and therefore is not provided.
The Retail Division operating income increased 100% and 39% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, which, as a percentage of sales, reflects a period-over-period increase of approximately 110 basis points and 160 basis points, respectively. The comparative increase in operating income was mostly attributable to lower operating lease costs recognized as a result of store impairments, and lower selling, general and administrative expenses resulting from continuous efforts to optimize costs. These improvements have more than offset the flow-through impact of lower sales.
As of June 27, 2020, the Retail Division operated 1,260 retail stores in the United States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands compared to 1,320 stores at the end of the second quarter of 2019. Charges associated with store closures are reported as appropriate in Merger and restructuring expenses, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, as part of our periodic recoverability assessment of owned retail stores and distribution center assets, and operating lease ROU assets, we recognize impairment charges in the Asset impairments line item of our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. These charges are reflected in Corporate reporting and are not included in the determination of Division operating income. Refer to the “Corporate” section below for additional information of expenses incurred to date.

Product sales in our CompuCom Division decreased 23% and 11% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2019. We experienced strong enterprise demand for computer and computer-related products in the latter part of the first quarter of 2020 as many businesses temporarily shifted to a work-from-home environment amid the COVID-19 outbreak. This was followed by lower demand during the second quarter of 2020 as the immediate needs of business customers for such products diminished and a portion of our business customers continued to be temporarily closed due to restrictions put in place by local authorities that aim to prevent and reduce the spread of COVID-19.
Sales of services in our CompuCom Division decreased 15% and 11% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2019. This was primarily due to lower project-related revenue from existing customer accounts and lower overall business volume. The reduction in project-related revenue is due to our customers pausing discretionary project spending amidst the COVID-19 outbreak and the uncertainty of its impact on the economy. Although sales of services have been declining since the beginning of 2019, we are continuing our efforts to stabilize and grow revenue under our new leadership at this Division. In connection with these efforts, we are strategically focusing on our strengths and placing greater emphasis on our core digital workplace offerings. We continue to expand our value proposition and capitalize on our unique market position to serve remote workforces through our capabilities to provision hardware, provide virtual or call center support and dispatch our field technicians as needed.
The CompuCom Division operating income was $4 million and $7 million in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, compared to operating income of $1 million and an operating loss of $13 million in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. Operating income has been increasing sequentially since the first quarter of 2019, which is mostly attributable to improved cost efficiencies as a result of our Business Acceleration Program. The increase in operating profitability despite the flow through impact of lower service sales volume was achieved through a reduction in associated labor-related expenses and ongoing expenditures to develop and market additional service offerings. We continue to take actions to improve future operating performance at our CompuCom Division, which include increasing the use of automation and technology to further improve service efficiency, simplifying organizational structures to improve service velocity, and aligning sales efforts to better serve our customers and accelerate cross-selling opportunities.
OTHER
Certain operations previously included in the International Division, including our global sourcing and trading operations in the Asia/Pacific region, which we have retained, are presented as Other. These operations primarily relate to the sale of products to former joint venture partners, and are not material in any period. Also included in Other is the elimination of intersegment revenues of $3 million and $7 million for the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, and $3 million and $6 million for the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively.
CORPORATE
The line items in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations included as Corporate activities are Asset impairments and Merger and restructuring expenses, net. These activities are managed at the Corporate level and, accordingly, are not included in the determination of Division income for management reporting or external disclosures. In addition to these charges and credits, certain selling, general and administrative expenses are not allocated to the Divisions and are managed at the Corporate level. Those expenses are addressed in the section “Unallocated Expenses” below.
Asset impairments
In the second quarter and first half of 2020, we recognized asset impairment charges of $401 million and $413 million, respectively. Of these asset impairment charges, $363 million was related to goodwill in our Contract and CompuCom reporting units and other intangible assets impairment in the second quarter of 2020, and $25 million and $35 million in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, were related to the impairment of operating lease ROU assets associated with our retail store locations. The remainder primarily related to impairment of fixed assets and a cost method investment. In the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively, we recognized asset impairment charges of $16 million and $45 million. Of these asset impairment charges, $13 million
33
and $39 million, respectively, were related to the impairment of operating lease ROU assets associated with our retail store locations, with the remainder primarily relating to impairment of fixed assets.
We regularly review retail store assets for impairment indicators at the individual store level, as this represents the lowest level of identifiable cash flows. When indicators of impairment are present, a recoverability analysis is performed which considers the estimated undiscounted cash flows over the retail store’s remaining life and uses input from retail operations and accounting and finance personnel. These inputs include our best estimates of retail store-level sales, gross margins, direct expenses, exercise of future lease renewal options when reasonably certain to be exercised, and resulting cash flows, which, by their nature, include judgments about how current initiatives will impact future performance. In the second quarter and first half of 2020, the assumptions used within the recoverability analysis for the retail stores were updated to consider current quarter retail store operational results and formal plans for future retail store closures as part of our restructuring programs, including the probability of closure at the retail store level. While it is generally expected that closures will approximate the store’s lease termination date, it is possible that changes in store performance or other conditions could result in future changes in assumptions utilized. In addition, the assumptions used reflected declining sales over the forecast period, and gross margin and operating cost assumptions that are consistent with recent actual results and consider plans for future initiatives. If the undiscounted cash flows of a retail store cannot support the carrying amount of its assets, the assets are impaired and written down to estimated fair value. Our recoverability analysis in the second quarter of 2020 also included the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the operations of our retail stores as described in the “Retail Division” section. As discussed above, there is uncertainty regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the results of our operations in the second half of 2020 and beyond, which could result in future impairments of store assets if deemed unrecoverable.
During the second quarter of 2020, due to the macroeconomic impacts of COVID-19 on our current and projected future results of operations, we determined that an indicator of potential impairment existed to require an interim quantitative goodwill impairment test for our CompuCom and Contract reporting units. The Contract reporting unit is a component of our Business Solutions Division. The quantitative goodwill impairment test indicated that the carrying value of the CompuCom and Contract reporting units exceeded their fair value, and impairment charges of $237 million and $115 million, respectively, were recorded for these reporting units. These non-cash impairment charges are presented within the Asset Impairment line in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. After the impairment charges, our CompuCom reporting unit has remaining goodwill of $210 million, and our Contract reporting unit has remaining goodwill of $230 million as of June 27, 2020.
The decline in the fair values of our CompuCom and Contract reporting units resulted from macroeconomic impacts of COVID-19, particularly as it relates to the restrictions and closures imposed on their business customers, which lowered the projected revenue growth rates and profitability levels of the reporting units. The duration of the impacts of the pandemic are expected to be longer than anticipated in the first quarter of 2020, which has significantly impacted our expectations on timing for our customers returning back to levels of historical operations. For our CompuCom reporting unit, we had begun to experience a decline in project-based service revenue due to customer-imposed deferrals late in the first quarter of 2020. During the second quarter of 2020, declines in project-based service revenue continued to deteriorate at a faster pace due to both customer-imposed deferrals and cancellations. We also started to experience declines in its annuity-based service revenue from reduced service volume and declines in its product revenue from deferred or cancelled customer spend on product purchases, due to the continued disruption in the activities of our business customers during the second quarter of 2020. For our Contract reporting unit, we had begun experiencing decreased demand for its core product and service offerings late in the first quarter of 2020, mainly as a result of the temporary closure of nonessential businesses which constitute a portion of this reporting unit’s customers, along with the transition of many other business customers to a work-from-home environment. The disruption on the Contract reporting unit’s business customers continued through the second quarter of 2020 as a portion of these businesses are still operating at reduced activity levels or are closed. During the second quarter, the opportunities related to increased sales in cleaning and breakroom supplies and personal protective equipment also did not materialize at levels that were anticipated. In addition, the consideration of incremental risk associated with the uncertainty related to the pace of the economic recovery was also a factor that contributed to the decline in the fair values of both reporting units.
The fair value estimates for both reporting units were based on a blended analysis of the present value of future discounted cash flows and market value approach. The significant estimates used in the discounted cash flow model included our weighted average cost of capital, projected cash flows and the long-term rate of growth. The assumptions were based on the actual historical performance of the reporting units and took into account the recent and continued weakening of operating results as well as the anticipated rate of recovery, and implied risk premiums based on market prices of our equity and debt as of the assessment date. Significant estimates in the market approach model included identifying similar companies with comparable business factors such as size, growth, profitability, risk and return on investment and assessing comparable revenue and earnings multiples in estimating the fair value of the reporting units. CompuCom’s tradename, which is an indefinite-lived intangible asset, was also tested for impairment using the relief from royalty method and was determined to be impaired as its carrying value exceeded its fair value by $11 million. Accordingly, we recorded an impairment charge of $11 million in the second quarter of 2020 related to this asset.
We did not identify indicators of impairment related to our other reporting units, which mainly serve consumers through our retail stores and eCommerce platform and have been performing in accordance with our forecasts. We will continue to evaluate the recoverability of goodwill at the reporting unit level on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate there may be a potential impairment. If the operating results of our reporting units deteriorate in the future, it may cause the fair value
34
of one or more of the reporting units to fall below their carrying value, resulting in additional goodwill impairment charges. Further, while we are currently in a strong liquidity and capital position, a significant deterioration may have a material impact on our liquidity and capital in future periods.
Merger and restructuring expenses, net
Since 2017, we have taken actions to optimize our asset base and drive operational efficiencies. These actions include acquiring profitable businesses, closing underperforming retail stores and non-strategic distribution facilities, consolidating functional activities, eliminating redundant positions and disposing of non-strategic businesses and assets. The expenses and any income recognized directly associated with these actions are included in Merger and restructuring expenses, net on a separate line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in order to identify these activities apart from the expenses incurred to sell to and service customers. These expenses are not included in the determination of Division operating income. Merger and restructuring expenses, net was $65 million and $81 million in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, compared to $69 million and $83 million in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively.
Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan
In May 2020, our Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan to realign our operational focus to support our “business-to-business” solutions and IT services business units and improve costs. Implementation of the Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan is expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2023. The Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan aims to generate savings through optimizing our retail footprint, removing costs that directly support our Retail business and additional measures to implement a company-wide low-cost business model, which will then be invested in accelerating the growth of our business-to-business platform. The plan is broader than restructuring programs we have implemented in the past and includes closing and/or consolidating distribution facilities and retail stores and the reduction of approximately 13,100 employee positions by the end of 2023. We are evaluating the number of retail store and distribution facility closures and/or consolidations, as well as the timing of any such closures and/or consolidations, however we generally expect that closures will approximate the store’s lease termination date. We estimate that approximately 73 retail stores and one distribution facility will be closed by the end of 2020. Such closures are in addition to the closures we anticipate in connection with the Business Acceleration Plan, as discussed below. There were no closures or consolidations under the Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan during the second quarter of 2020. Total estimated restructuring costs related to the Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan are expected to be approximately $143 million, comprised of:
|
|
(a) |
severance costs of approximately $55 million; |
|
|
(b) |
facility closure costs of approximately $51 million, which are mainly related to retail stores; and |
|
|
(c) |
other costs, including contract termination costs, to facilitate the execution of the Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan of approximately $37 million. |
The total costs of approximately $143 million above are expected to be cash expenditures through 2023 funded primarily with cash on hand and cash from operations. As part of the optimization of our Retail footprint, potential closure prior to lease terms were considered. However, due to recent economic impacts from COVID-19, it is generally expected that closures would approximate their lease termination dates. Changes in future economic conditions and events may influence the decisions made which would not be a part of this plan. If stores are determined to be closed before the end of their lease term and the fair values of their assets are not sufficient to cover their carrying amounts, we may also incur non-cash asset impairment charges related to the operating lease ROU assets and fixed assets at these locations. The timing and amount of these future impairments will be dependent upon the decisions that will be made and whether the closures or disposals occur prior to the lease maturity dates or useful lives of the assets involved. Impairment charges on these assets, if any, will be reflected on the Asset Impairments line item of our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
In the second quarter of 2020, we incurred $51 million in restructuring expenses associated with the Maximize B2B Restructuring Plan which consisted of $42 million in severance and $9 million of retail store and facility closure costs and other that were mainly related to facility closure accruals, gains and losses on asset dispositions, and accelerated depreciation. Of these amounts, $3 million were cash expenditures in the second quarter of 2020.
Business Acceleration Program
In May 2019, our Board of Directors approved the Business Acceleration Program, which is a company-wide, multi-year, cost reduction and business improvement program to systematically drive down costs, improve operational efficiencies, and enable future growth investments. In connection with the Business Acceleration Program, we anticipate closing approximately 90 underperforming retail stores and 8 other facilities, consisting of distribution centers and sales offices, by the end of 2020. In the second quarter and first half of 2020, we closed 35 and 47 retail stores, respectively. We closed one other facility in the second quarter and first half of 2020, and 7 other facilities were closed as of the end of 2019. Total estimated costs to implement the Business Acceleration Program are expected to be approximately $108 million, of which approximately $100 million are expected to be cash expenditures through 2020 funded primarily with cash on hand and cash from operations. We incurred $96 million in restructuring expenses to implement the Business Acceleration Program since its inception in 2019 through the end of the second quarter of 2020.
35
In the second quarter of 2020, we incurred $6 million in restructuring expenses associated with the Business Acceleration Program which consisted of $4 million in third-party professional fees, and $2 million of retail store and facility closure costs and other. We made cash expenditures of $13 million for the Business Acceleration Program in the second quarter of 2020. In the first half of 2020, we incurred $9 million in third-party professional fees and $5 million of retail store and facility closure costs and other. We made cash expenditures of $23 million for the Business Acceleration Program in the first half of 2020.
Other
Included in restructuring expenses in the second quarter and first half of 2019 were costs incurred in connection with the Comprehensive Business Review, a program which concluded at the end of 2019. These costs included severance, facility closure costs, contract termination, accelerated depreciation, relocation and disposal gains and losses, as well as other costs associated with retail store closures. Included in restructuring expenses in the second quarter and first half of 2020 were third-party professional fees incurred in connection with the Reorganization.
Refer to Note 3. “Merger and Restructuring Activity” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for an extensive analysis of these Corporate charges.
Unallocated Expenses
We allocate to our Divisions functional support expenses that are considered to be directly or closely related to segment activity. These allocated expenses are included in the measurement of Division operating income. Other companies may charge more or less for functional support expenses to their segments, and our results, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The unallocated expenses primarily consist of the buildings used for our corporate headquarters and personnel not directly supporting the Divisions, including certain executive, finance, legal, audit and similar functions. Unallocated expenses also include the pension credit related to the frozen OfficeMax pension and other benefit plans. Additionally, the pension plan in the United Kingdom that has been retained by us in connection with the sale of the European Business, as well as certain general and administrative costs previously allocated to the International Division have been included in corporate unallocated expenses.
Unallocated expenses were $25 million and $48 million in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, and $26 million and $58 million in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. The decrease in the first half of 2020 compared to the prior year period was primarily due to lower deferred compensation expenses to our executive function and lower professional fees in the first quarter of 2020.

In April 2020, we entered into the Third Amended Credit Agreement which provides for an aggregate $1.3 billion asset-based credit facility maturing in April 2025. We recorded $3 million of interest expense in both the second quarter and first half of 2020 related to the Third Amended Credit Agreement.
We recorded $2 million and $10 million of interest expense in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, and $11 million and $22 million in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively, related to the Term Loan Credit Agreement. In April 2020, we repaid the remaining balance under the Term Loan Credit Agreement in full and terminated it. We recognized $12 million of loss from extinguishment and modification of debt related to this transaction in the second quarter of 2020, which primarily included the write-off of the remaining unamortized original issue discount and debt issuance costs of the Term Loan Credit Agreement.
Refer to Note 8. “Debt” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate for the first half of 2020 differs from the statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the impact of goodwill impairment, state taxes, excess tax deficiencies associated with stock-based compensation awards and certain nondeductible items, adjustments to certain tax benefits and the mix of income and losses across U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions. Our effective tax rates in prior periods have varied considerably as a result of several primary factors including the mix of income and losses across U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions, the impact of excess tax deficiencies associated with stock-based compensation awards and the derecognition of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets that were not more-likely-than-not realizable in the U.S. and certain non-U.S. jurisdictions. During 2020 and 2019, the mix of income and losses across jurisdictions, although still applicable, has become less of a
36
factor in influencing our effective tax rates due to the dispositions of the international businesses and improved operating results. As a result, our effective tax rates are 8% for the second quarter and 4% first half of 2020, and 23% for the second quarter and 24% for the first half of 2019. Changes in pretax income projections and the mix of income across jurisdictions could impact the effective tax rate in future quarters.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act repealed the corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (“AMT”) and allows unutilized AMT credits to be refunded. For tax years 2018 through 2020, taxpayers could receive 50% of their uncredited balances as a cash refund with any remaining amounts refunded in full in 2021. As of year end 2019, we determined it was more-likely-than-not that $22 million of our AMT credits would be refunded and was expected to be received in the third quarter of 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted. The CARES Act allows for us to refund 100% of our remaining AMT credits in 2020. We filed for the remaining $22 million in the second quarter of 2020 for a total refund of $44 million. We received the entire $44 million in the third quarter of 2020. We continue to evaluate the other provisions of the CARES Act to determine if they would have any material impact.
During the first quarter of 2020, we net settled our Timber notes receivable and Non-recourse debt. We had previously recorded a deferred tax liability related to the taxes deferred from the original transaction. The deferred liability was realized in the first quarter of 2020. We anticipate that certain capital loss carryforwards, available tax credits and net operating losses will offset the resulting gain and no material cash income taxes will be due upon the realization.
We continue to have a U.S. valuation allowance for certain U.S. federal credits and state tax attributes, which relate to deferred tax assets that require certain types of income or for income to be earned in certain jurisdictions in order to be realized. We will continue to assess the realizability of our deferred tax assets in the U.S. and remaining foreign jurisdictions in future periods. Changes in pretax income projections could impact this evaluation in future periods.
We file a U.S. federal income tax return and other income tax returns in various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal and state and local income tax examinations for years prior to 2017 and 2013, respectively. The acquired OfficeMax U.S. consolidated group is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination, and with few exceptions, is no longer subject to U.S. state and local income tax examinations for years prior to 2013. Our U.S. federal income tax return for 2017 is currently under review. Generally, we are subject to routine examination for years 2012 and forward in our international tax jurisdictions.
It is anticipated that $4 million of tax positions will be resolved within the next 12 months. Additionally, we anticipate that it is reasonably possible that new issues will be raised or resolved by tax authorities that may require changes to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits; however, an estimate of such changes cannot be reasonably made at this time.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
LIQUIDITY
At June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, we had $762 million and $698 million in cash and cash equivalents, respectively, and $708 million and $920 million of available credit under the Amended Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 8. “Debt” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), respectively, for a total liquidity of approximately $1.5 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively. Despite the weaker global economic conditions and the uncertainties related to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, we currently believe that as a result of our strong financial position, including our cash and cash equivalents on hand, availability of funds under the Third Amended Credit Agreement, and full year cash flows generated from operations, we will be able to fund our working capital, capital expenditures, debt repayments, merger integration and restructuring expenses, and future acquisitions consistent with our strategic growth initiatives for at least the next twelve months from the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global and national economies and our operations evolve, we will continue to assess our liquidity needs. To preserve liquidity and maximize financial flexibility in the current environment, our Board of Directors has temporarily suspended the stock repurchase program and the quarterly dividend. We intend to continue to evaluate and implement additional cost-cutting measures as is necessary to mitigate the negative financial impact of COVID-19.
Financing
As disclosed in Note 8. “Debt” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we received a net cash payment of $87.7 million upon maturity of the Installment Notes and the Bridge Loan on January 29, 2020, which were net settled as they were with the same third-party financial institution. This amount includes principal of $82.5 million and interest of $5.2 million. Also, as noted in the “Income Taxes” section above, we received a refund of unutilized AMT credits of $44 million in the third quarter of 2020.
Also as disclosed in Note 8. “Debt”, on April 17, 2020, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which provides for a $1.2 billion asset-based revolving credit facility and a $100 million asset-based first-in, last-out term loan facility, for an aggregate principal amount of up to $1.3 billion (the “New Facilities”). The New Facilities mature in April 2025. The Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement replaces our existing Amended Credit Agreement that was due to mature in May 2021. Upon the
37
closing of the transaction, we made an initial borrowing in the amount of $400 million under the New Facilities. These proceeds, along with available cash on hand, were used to repay in full the remaining $388 million balance under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and terminate it and to repay approximately $66 million of other debt and related interest. We recognized $12 million of loss from extinguishment and modification of debt related to this transaction in the second quarter of 2020, which primarily included the write-off of the remaining unamortized original issue discount and debt issuance costs of the Term Loan Credit Agreement as of the closing date of the transaction.
There were revolving loans outstanding under the Third Amended Credit Agreement at the end of the second quarter of 2020 totaling $400 million, and we were in compliance with all applicable financial covenants at June 27, 2020.
Strategic Transformation
In addition to the acquisitions disclosed herein, we have evaluated, and expect to continue to evaluate, possible acquisitions and dispositions of businesses and assets as well the possible acceleration of potential restructuring plans in connection with our strategic transformation. Such transactions may be material and may involve cash, our securities or the incurrence of additional indebtedness (Refer to Note 2. “Acquisitions” and Note 3. “Merger and Restructuring Activity” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information).
Capital Expenditures
We estimated capital expenditures in 2020 to be up to approximately $150 million, which includes investments to support our business priorities. However, due to the factors described in the “Recent Developments” section above, we are unable to estimate the magnitude by which capital expenditures will be affected in the future quarters of 2020. These expenditures will be funded through available cash on hand and operating cash flows.
Share Repurchases
In November 2018, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program of up to $100 million of our common stock effective January 1, 2019, which extends until the end of 2020. In November 2019, our Board of Directors approved an increase in the authorization of the existing stock repurchase program of up to $200 million and extended the program through the end of 2021. The current authorization includes the remaining authorized amount under the existing stock repurchase program. The stock repurchase authorization permits us to repurchase stock from time-to-time through a combination of open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, 10b5-1 trading plans, accelerated stock repurchase transactions and/or other derivative transactions. The exact number and timing of stock repurchases will depend on market conditions and other factors, and will be funded through available cash balances. Our Third Amended Credit Agreement includes certain covenants on restricted payments such as common stock repurchases, based on our fixed charge coverage ratio, liquidity and borrowing availability. The authorized amount under the stock repurchase program excludes fees, commissions or other expenses. As a result of the continued economic uncertainty due to COVID-19, our Board of Directors temporarily suspended the stock repurchase program on May 5, 2020, however, the repurchase authorization remains effective. Under the stock repurchase program before its temporary suspension, we purchased approximately 22 thousand shares of our common stock at a cost of less than $1 million in the second quarter of 2020 and approximately 1 million shares of our common stock at a cost of $30 million in the first half of 2020. As of June 27, 2020, approximately $130 million remains available for stock repurchases under the current stock repurchase program that is now temporarily suspended.
Dividends
In order to preserve liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic and in light of the uncertainties as to its duration and economic impact, on May 5, 2020, our Board of Directors temporarily suspended the Company’s quarterly cash dividend beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. There was no quarterly cash dividend in the second quarter of 2020. Prior to its temporary suspension, dividends have been recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital as we are in an accumulated deficit position. Our Third Amended Credit Agreement permits payment of dividends provided that we have the required minimum liquidity or fixed charge coverage ratio, but may be limited if we do not meet the necessary requirements.
We will re-evaluate our capital return program when appropriate. Decisions regarding future dividends are within the discretion of our Board of Directors, and depend on a number of factors, including, general business and economic conditions, which includes the impact of COVID-19 on such conditions, and other factors which are discussed in this discussion and analysis and “Risk Factors” within Other Key Information in our 2019 Form 10-K, as supplemented by our discussion of “Risk Factors” within Other Information in this quarterly report.

Operating Activities
During the first half of 2020, cash provided by operating activities was $180 million, compared to $2 million during the corresponding period in 2019. This increase in cash flows from operating activities was primarily driven by $163 million more cash inflows from working capital, $9 million less cash outflows for contingent consideration payment, and $6 million less usage of deferred tax assets against current obligations. Working capital is influenced by a number of factors, including period end sales, the flow of goods, credit terms, timing of promotions, vendor production planning, new product introductions and working capital management. During the first half of 2020, the primary driver for working capital improvements was the reduction in our receivables as a result of lower sales on credit and lower inventory purchases in our core product categories and back to school supplies. After adjusting for non-cash charges, net income for the first half of 2020 was consistent with the corresponding period in 2019.
For our accounting policy on cash management, refer to Note 1. “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Investing Activities
Cash from investing activities was $762 million in the first half of 2020, compared to cash used in investing activities of $113 million in the first half of 2019. The cash inflow in the first half of 2020 was driven by the cash proceeds from the collection of the Timber notes receivable of $818 million, which was partially offset by $18 million in business acquisitions, net of cash acquired, and $40 million in capital expenditures associated with improvements in our service platform, distribution network, and eCommerce capabilities. The cash outflow in the first half of 2019 was driven by $91 million in capital expenditures and $22 million in business acquisitions, net of cash acquired.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities was $872 million in the first half of 2020, compared to $107 million in the first half of 2019. The cash outflow in the first half of 2020 primarily consisted of activity related to our debt, which included $735 million Non-recourse debt retirement, $388 million Term Loan Credit Agreement retirement, $64 million on borrowings associated with our company owned life insurance policies, $30 million of net payments on other short- and long-term borrowings, and $6 million of debt related fees. We also used $13 million in payment of cash dividends and $30 million in repurchases of common stock, including commissions in the first half of 2020. The cash outflow in the first half of 2019 primarily consisted of $48 million in repayments on long- and short-term borrowings, $27 million in payment of cash dividends, $11 million in repurchases of common stock, and $12 million acquisition contingent consideration payment up to the amount of the acquisition-date liability.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
For a description of new applicable accounting standards, refer to Note 1. “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparation of these statements requires management to make judgments and estimates. Some accounting policies have a significant impact on amounts reported in these financial statements. A summary of significant accounting policies and a description of accounting policies that are considered critical may be found in our 2019 Form 10-K, in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates section of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Except for our accounting policy updates described in Note 1 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies since December 28, 2019.

OTHER INFORMATION
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
At June 27, 2020, there had not been a material change in the interest rate, foreign exchange, and commodities risks information disclosed in the “Market Sensitive Risks and Positions” subsection of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations set forth in our 2019 Form 10-K.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the possible controls and procedures. Each reporting period, we carry out an evaluation, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.
Based on management’s evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of June 27, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 27, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despite the fact that most of our employees are working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.
We are in the process of integrating the companies we acquired during the last twelve months into our overall internal control over financial reporting processes.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
For a description of our legal proceedings, see Note 12. “Commitments and Contingencies” in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in “Risk Factors” within Other Key Information in our 2019 Form 10-K. In addition, we are supplementing such risk factors with the following disclosure:
Our business, results of operations and financial performance have been and may continue to be adversely affected by the recent COVID-19 pandemic and related social distancing and stay-at-home requirements implemented worldwide, which could materially affect our future results.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the current outbreak of a novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic. In response to this declaration and with the rapid wide spread of COVID-19 globally and throughout the United States, federal, state and local authorities have declared states of emergency and imposed varying degrees of restrictions on social and commercial activities, including travel bans and curfews, in order to promote social distancing in an effort to prevent and slow the spread of the disease. The preventative measures taken by federal, state and local authorities to contain or mitigate the COVID-19 outbreak have caused, and are continuing to cause, business slowdowns or shutdowns in affected areas and significant disruption in the financial markets both globally and in the United States, which have led to a decline in discretionary spending by consumers, and in turn have adversely impacted our business, sales, financial condition and results of operations. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have temporarily closed certain offices (including our corporate headquarters) and implemented certain travel restrictions, both of which have changed how we currently operate our business. Currently, some of our employees are working remotely, and an extended period of remote work arrangements has and could continue to strain our business continuity plans and introduce operational risk, including but not limited to cybersecurity risks. While we have not experienced a material cybersecurity incident in connection with our current remote work arrangements, we could in the future. We are monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business, including how it is and will continue to impact our customers, employees, suppliers, vendors, business partners and distribution channels. The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption, which has and will continue to adversely affect our business operations and may materially and adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and financial position.
We are unable to predict the duration or severity of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the longer it continues, we will continue experiencing volatility in consumer and business demand and corresponding declining sales patterns. For example, during the second quarter 2020, the promotion of social distancing and the adoption of shelter-in-place orders have decreased foot traffic in our stores. Additionally, we have experienced, and will continue to experience, reduced demand for our technology and IT workforce solutions from our enterprise business customers as a result of declining financial performance of such customers, lower demand, cancellations, reductions, revised payment terms, and requests to delay the start of service delivery. Decreased foot traffic at our stores and declining financial performance of our business customers has and will continue to adversely impact future sales.
In addition, we have incurred and will continue to incur additional costs to maintain the health of our customers and employees, which may be significant, as we continue to implement additional operational changes in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 has also caused disruption in our supply chain which has resulted in higher supply chain costs to replenish inventory in our retail stores and distribution centers, and increased delivery costs as we shift from less commercial to more residential deliveries. The increased costs in our supply chain are likely to continue. Furthermore, we have experienced restricted product availability in certain categories, and while we have significantly increased our purchases across many categories, including new product categories, we have faced and may continue to face delays or difficulty sourcing certain products. In addition, we may fail to adequately identify certain regulatory requirements for new products which could negatively impact us.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts us will depend on numerous evolving factors and future developments that we are not able to predict, including: the severity of the disease; the duration of the outbreak; the possibility of a resulting global or regional economic downturn or recession; governmental, business and other actions; the promotion of social distancing and the adoption of shelter-in-place orders affecting foot traffic in our stores; the impacts on our supply chain, including impacts to our distribution and logistics providers’ ability to operate or increases in their operating costs, which have and may continue to have an adverse effect on our ability to meet customer demand and has resulted and could continue to result in an increase in our costs of production and distribution, including increased freight and logistics costs and other expenses; disruption to our third-party manufacturing partners and other vendors, including through effects of facility closures, reductions in operating hours and work force, and real time changes in operating procedures, including for additional cleaning and disinfection procedures; the impact of the pandemic on economic activity; customer reduction in workforce and furloughs; the extent and duration of the effect on consumer confidence and spending, customer demand and buying patterns including spending on discretionary categories; the effects of additional store closures or other changes to our operations; the health of and the effect on our workforce and our ability to meet staffing needs in our stores, distribution facilities, and other critical functions, particularly members of our work force who have been quarantined as a result of exposure; any impairment in value of our tangible or intangible assets which could be recorded as a result of
41
a weaker economic conditions; and the potential effects on our internal controls including those over financial reporting as a result of changes in working environments such as shelter-in-place and similar orders that are applicable to our employees and business partners, among others. In addition, if the pandemic continues to create disruptions or turmoil in the credit or financial markets, or impacts our credit ratings, it could adversely affect our ability to access capital on favorable terms and continue to meet our liquidity needs, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
In addition, we cannot predict the impact that COVID-19 will have on our customers, employees, suppliers, vendors, other business partners, and each of their financial conditions; however, any material effect on these parties could adversely impact us. The impact of COVID-19 may also exacerbate other risks discussed in “Risk Factors” within Other Key Information in our 2019 Form 10-K, any of which could have a material effect on us. The situation surrounding COVID-19 remains fluid and additional impacts may arise that we are not aware of currently.
Our Board of Directors has adopted a limited duration stockholder rights agreement, which could delay or discourage a merger, tender offer, or assumption of control of the Company not approved by our Board of Directors.
On May 5, 2020, our Board of Directors adopted a limited duration stockholder rights plan, which was amended and restated in its entirety in connection with the Reorganization on June 30, 2020 (as amended, the “Rights Plan”) with an expiration date of May 4, 2021 and an ownership trigger threshold of 10%, subject to certain exceptions. In connection with the Rights Plan, our Board of Directors authorized and declared a dividend to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 21, 2020 of one preferred share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of our common stock.
The Rights Plan is intended to enable all of our shareholders to realize the full potential value of their investment in the Company and to protect the interests of the Company and its shareholders by reducing the likelihood that any person or group gains control of the Company through open market accumulation or other tactics without paying an appropriate control premium. The Rights Plan could render more difficult, or discourage, a merger, tender offer, or assumption of control of the Company that is not approved by our Board of Directors, even if such a transaction would be beneficial to our shareholders. These deterrents could adversely affect the price of our common stock. The Rights Plan, however, should not interfere with any merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination approved by our Board of Directors.
UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Before the temporary suspension of the stock repurchase program, we repurchased 22 thousand shares of our common stock at a cost of less than $1 million in the second quarter of 2020. At June 27, 2020, $130 million remains available for additional repurchases under the current stock repurchase program that is now temporarily suspended.

(a) |
The average price paid per share for our common stock repurchases includes a per share commission paid. |
(b)In November 2018, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program of up to $100 million of our common stock effective January 1, 2019, which extends until the end of 2020. In November 2019, our Board of Directors approved an increase in the authorization of the existing stock repurchase program of up to $200 million and extended the program through the end of 2021. The current authorization includes the remaining authorized amount under the existing stock repurchase program. The stock repurchase authorization permits us to repurchase stock from time-to-time through a combination of open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, 10b5-1 trading plans, accelerated stock repurchase transactions and/or other derivative transactions. The exact number and timing of stock repurchases will depend on market conditions and other factors, and will be funded through available cash balances. Our Third Amended Credit Agreement included certain covenants on restricted payments such as common stock repurchases, based on our fixed charge coverage ratio, liquidity and borrowing availability. The authorized amount under the stock repurchase program excludes fees, commissions or other expenses. As a result of the continued economic uncertainty due to COVID-19, our Board of Directors temporarily suspended the stock repurchase program on May 5, 2020, however, the stock repurchase authorization remains effective.
42
In order to preserve liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic and in light of the uncertainties as to its duration and economic impact, on May 5, 2020, our Board of Directors temporarily suspended the Company’s quarterly cash dividend beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. There was no quarterly cash dividend in the second quarter of 2020. Prior to its temporary suspension, dividends have been recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital as we are in an accumulated deficit position. Our Third Amended Credit Agreement permits payment of dividends provided that we have the required minimum liquidity or fixed charge coverage ratio, but may be limited if we do not meet the necessary requirements.
