Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

(a) Operating Results

 

We sell our footwear direct-to-consumers through our own website, as well as through Amazon, retail stores, and international distributors.  Total sales less returns increased 60% in the six months ended June 30, 2022, when compared to 2021, growing from $14.0 million in the first six months of 2021 to $22.4 million in first six months of 2022.  Overall net revenue growth was driven by the continued expansion of types of footwear offered, exceptionally strong sales in core styles, and the opening of the direct-to-consumer channel in Europe.

 

Our direct-to-consumer channel continues to represent the largest percentage of sales, delivering 59% of total sales in the first six months of 2022 versus 67% in the first six months of 2021. The decrease in share of sales from direct-to-consumer was the result of a 130% increase in Amazon sales and a 73% increase in wholesale and distributor sales. Our comparative channel mix is as follows for the first six months of 2022 and 2021:

     
    2022   2021
% Amazon   17%   11%
% Direct-to-Consumer   59%   67%
% Wholesale/Distributor   24%   22%

 

The percentages above are shown net of returns.

 

Our focus in 2022 is on a few main goals:

 

·Capitalizing on the increased consumer focus on health and wellness and on our brand;
·Continuing our European expansion through direct-to-consumer, Amazon, and wholesale channels; and
·Maintaining our levels of product quality and customer service while maintaining our growth.

 

Our rate of returns and exchanges continues to be at or below the industry standard due to the lower rate of returns on sandals in general.  We continue to experience a lower rate of returns on the direct-to-consumer channel as compared to sales through Amazon. Amazon returns dropped slightly to 27% in 2022 versus 29% for the same period in 2021. Direct-to-consumer returns decreased from 15% in 2021 to 9% in 2022.

 

Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2022, increased by $3.3 million when compared to same period in the prior year. Gross margin percentages decreased from 54% to 52%.  This decrease in gross margin percentage was the result of several factors including sharp increases ocean freight rates plus the need to utilize air freight due to supply change delays.

 

Total operating expenses increased 86% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the same period in 2021 mainly due to additional payroll, occupancy, development, and marketing costs to support sales growth. Total operating expenses increased from 37% of net revenues in 2022 to 43% in 2022.

 

The operations line item includes our customer service costs and dedicated warehousing expenses needed to maintain inventory to accommodate customer needs. Operations increased 71% from $945,000 in the first six months of 2021 to $1,618,000 in first six months of 2022 mainly due to increased personnel and an increase in rent costs to maintain outstanding customer service levels with the increased volume of sales. Operations remained steady at 7% of net revenues in 2022.

Sales and marketing expense increased by $2,083,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2022, when compared to the same period in 2021.  Sales and marketing expense as a percentage of net revenues increased for the first six months of 2022 to 23% vs. 21% in the same period in the prior year as we expanded our targeting and invested in additional long-term marketing initiatives with higher upfront costs.

 

The Company continued to expand sales to brick-and-mortar wholesale accounts. The Company has also expanded its sales on Amazon, Zappos, and in new digital retailers while continuing to measure the customer acquisition costs to determine the most efficient and productive distribution channels.

 

Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022, increased 158% as the Company acquired additional design and development talent to continue growing and innovating our product offering.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had income from operations of $1.3 million compared to $2.4 in the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in income from operations was the result of increased investment in all areas of operations to support the 60% growth of net revenue through June 2022.

 

In the first six months of 2022, management continued to expand the sales season, price points and distribution channels to maximize profitability.  

 

The Company plans to continue growth through the following strategies:

-Continued expansion of styles offered:

Having successfully expanded into year-round styles, the Company will continue to introduce new styles of footwear targeting additional customer footwear needs.

 

-Expansion of price points:

Our expansion of the sales season will also allow an increase in price points due to lower price sensitivity for technical and performance footwear. The Average Order Value (AOV) in the first six months of 2022 was $124 when compared to $108 for the same period in 2021.

 

-International Expansion:

The Company has continued its expansion into Europe by adding a specific European direct-to-consumer website to the growing European wholesale channel.

 

(b) Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Throughout its history, the Company has used a combination of long-term notes payable, short-term lines of credit, revolving credit cards, trade payables and a small equity raise to retain adequate working capital to provide stability to our workforce and fund our inventory supply chain. In December 2020, it closed on a transaction with a private equity firm, TZP Group (et al.) and exchanged minority shares of stock in the Company for an investment of $8,749,996. In November 2021, the Company closed on a revolving loan with JP Morgan Chase that was used to refinance the Genlink/La Plata loan and provided an additional $4.0 million of credit for working capital.

 

 C: 
 

Please see the debt and equity footnotes to the financial statements for additional disclosures.

 

There are no long-term commitments, other than the debt listed in the accompanying financial statements, that would limit the Company's ability to use its current capital. The Company has an established history of fulfilling all of its loan obligations on time.

 

(c) Trend Information

 

The Company continues to evaluate all forecasts given continued challenges with supply chains, world geopolitical events, and the increased inflationary environment.


As the e-commerce sector continues to show strong growth, the Company plans to continue to invest heavily in direct-to-consumer marketing and expand the wholesale channel.

 

It is expected that inventory will increase to support the Company’s expansion of both the distribution network and the variety of shoes offered. Because of the perennial nature of the industry, the Company does not anticipate the inventory will go out of style. 

 

As the Company is pursuing various expansion strategies across multiple channels and regions, it is not providing guidance on projected revenue or EBITDA.

FEEL THE WORLD, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of June 30, 2022, and 2021 and for the six months then ended

 

 

 

 

NOTE 1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Feel The World, Inc. (the “Company”), is a corporation organized on December 17, 2010, under the laws of Delaware. The Company sells footwear to retailers and direct to consumers. Feel the World EU B.V., a private limited liability company formed under the laws of the Netherlands on September 5, 2019, is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Xero Shoes EU s.r.o., a private limited liability company formed under the laws of the Czech Republic on July 15, 2021, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Feel the World EU B.V.

 

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation and Basis of Consolidation

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

 

The Company adopted the calendar year as its basis of reporting.

 

The Company prepares consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These consolidated financial statements include all accounts of Feel the World, Inc., along with its wholly owned subsidiaries, Feel the World EU B.V. and Xero EU s.r.o. All transactions and balances between and among the companies have been eliminated in consolidating the accounts for consolidated financial statement presentation. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to GAAP.

 

Foreign Currency

The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States Dollars, (“USD”), which is the reporting currency and the functional currency of the Company’s U.S. operations. The functional currency of the subsidiaries is its local currency.  In accordance with ASC Topic 830, Foreign Currency Matters, foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their USD equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date. Revenue and expenses were translated at the prevailing rate of exchange at the date of the transaction. When it is impractical to track the exchange rates at the date of transactions, weighted average rates were applied as permitted by Topic 830. Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, and the year ended December 31, 2021, the foreign currency translation gain/(loss) was ($555,821) and ($66,591), respectively.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash Equivalents and Concentration of Cash Balance

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, at times, may exceed insurance limited provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and its international equivalents. On June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Company’s cash balances exceeded such insured limits by $5,202,419 and $7,034,268 respectively.

 

Accounts Receivable

The Company assesses its receivables based on historical loss patterns, aging of the receivables, and assessments of the credit risk for specific identifiable customer accounts for uncollectible amount.  The Company also considers any changes to the financial condition of its customers and any other external market factors that could impact the collectability of the receivables in the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts.  The Company has no accounts receivable allowances as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

 

Inventory Assets

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and accounted for using the weighted average cost method. The inventory balances as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, consist of products purchased for resale and any materials the Company purchased to modify the products. The Company operates a warehouse to process sales, returns and exchanges in the United States and maintains an agreement with a third-party logistics provider in the Czech Republic. The Company regularly evaluates inventory for possible impairment and estimates inventory market value based on several subjective assumptions including estimated future demand and market conditions, as well as other observable factors such as current sell-through of the Company's products, recent changes in product demand, global and regional economic conditions, historical experience selling through liquidation and price discounted channels, and the amount of inventory on hand. If the estimated inventory market value is less than the carrying value, the carrying value is adjusted to market value and the resulting impairment charge is recorded in Cost of goods sold in the statements of operations. The Company did not write off inventory in the six months ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively.

 

Inventory in Transit

Inventory in transit includes products manufactured for sale that have not yet been received at our warehouses, as well as advance payments.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is recorded for property and equipment using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets. The Company reviews the recoverability of all long-lived assets, including the related useful lives, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset might not be recoverable. Depreciation for footwear molds and lasts of $123,926 and $93,857 are included in Cost of Goods Sold for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The balances at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 mainly consist of footwear manufacturing assets and equipment assets with 3-10 year lives.

Patents are amortized over a 20-year useful life with patent amortization expense of $569 and $709 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. Patent and trademark values are reviewed annually for potential impairment. The Company determined that no write-offs are currently warranted.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments whose value is based on quoted market prices such as exchange-traded instruments and listed equities.

 

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly (e.g., quoted prices of similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flows or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

 

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximate their fair value.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Customer Deposits

At the time an order is placed, some international distributors pay a portion of their order or full amount based on the payment terms and conditions stipulated in their respective contracts with the Company. In accordance with revenue recognition policies (see below), these amounts are recorded as a liability until all revenue recognition conditions have been met.

 

Deferred Revenue

Customer orders received but not shipped are recorded as deferred revenue.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606 when shipment of goods to its customers has occurred satisfying its performance obligations, acceptance has been approved by its customers, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection of any related receivable is probable. ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers.

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements: 1) identify the contract with a customer; 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) determine the transaction price; 4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and 5) recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.

 

Sales tax is collected on sales in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. These taxes are recorded as a liability until remittance.  Liabilities are recorded for store credit issued to customers.

 

Merchant Account Fees

The Company includes credit card merchant account fees as cost of goods sold in the consolidated statement of operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, the Company had merchant account fees of $447,563 and $249,515, respectively.

 

Shipping and Handling Costs and Fees

Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred and are included in cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of operations. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are included in revenues.

 

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Income Taxes

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740, Income Taxes.  Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse.  A valuation allowance is recorded when it is unlikely that the deferred tax assets will be realized.  The Company assesses its income tax positions and records tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon our evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date.  In accordance with ASC 740-10, for those tax positions where there is a greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, our policy will be to record the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information.  For those income tax positions where there is less than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit will be recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Net Earnings/(Loss) per Share

Net earnings/(loss) per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding shares subject to redemption or forfeiture. The Company presents basic and diluted net earnings or loss per share.  Diluted net earnings or loss per share will reflect the potential common shares that could be purchased for the outstanding unexercised employee stock options applying the treasury stock method. For the reporting periods ending June 30,2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company issued 32,500 and 151,657 options for Class A Voting shares to certain eligible employees and a board member. These options are dilutive and have been included in the June 30, 2022, and 2021 diluted earnings per share computation.

 

New Accounting Standards

 

FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and subsequent Updates to amend the lease accounting and reporting for all entities. These Updates require a reporting entity that entered a lease contract as a lessee to recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset representing the right to obtain all the economic benefits from the use of the asset and the right to direct the use of the asset for the duration of the lease term. Qualitative disclosures along with quantitative disclosures are required for the lessees and lessors with the goal of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing and any uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU 2016-02 was effective beginning in 2020, and early adoption was permitted. On June 3, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-05 providing an optional one-year deferral of the effective date of ASU 2016-02 to January 1, 2022, with the interim periods within the annual reporting periods effective after December 15,2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-02 and the Updates will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and disclosures.

 

FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments -Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and subsequent Updates to replace the incurred loss methodology for recognizing credits losses with a methodology that reflect the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) over the life of financial assets. Under the CECL model, financial assets including trade receivables are required to be estimated for credit losses taking considerations of past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts into account. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-13 and the Updates will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and disclosures.

The Company had a tax receivable of $230,023 and $273,614 as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively

 

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of other assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements, which result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the grant date fair value of stock options, which requires the use of assumptions, including the expected term of the option, expected volatility of its stock price, and the risk-free interest rate, among others. These assumptions reflect best estimates, however; they involve inherent uncertainties including market conditions and employee behavior that are generally outside of the Company’s control. Generally, once stock option values are determined, accounting practices do not permit them to be changed, even if the estimates used are different from actual results. All stock-based compensation is expensed when awarded to employees based on the grant date fair value of the awards over the requisite service period, adjusted for forfeitures. Stock compensation expense of $ 25,121 and $1,088 were recognized for the periods ending June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The fair value of the option grants as of June 30, 2022, and 2021, were $361,289 and $486,312, respectively, with an unamortized compensation expense of $258,634 to be recorded over the next three years.
