1. Basis of Presentation

GSI Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”) design, develop, manufacture and sell precision photonic and motion control components and subsystems to Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEMs”) in the medical and advanced industrial markets. The Company is a leader in highly engineered enabling technologies, including CO2 laser sources, laser scanning and beam delivery products, optical data collection and machine vision technologies, medical visualization and informatics solutions, and precision motion control products. The Company specializes in collaborating with OEM customers to adapt its component and subsystem technologies to deliver highly differentiated performance in their applications.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the instructions to Form 10-Q and the provisions of Regulation S-X pertaining to interim financial statements. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The interim consolidated financial statements and notes included in this report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. In the opinion of management, these interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments and accruals of a normal and recurring nature necessary to fairly state the results of the interim periods presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or for any future periods.

During the quarter ended July 3, 2015, the Company deconsolidated its 50% owned joint venture, Excel Laser Technology Private Limited (the “India JV”), as a result of an agreement executed in June 2015 to sell 100% of the Company’s interest in the India JV. The accounts of the India JV were previously included in discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.

The Company owns 41% of Laser Quantum Ltd. (“Laser Quantum”), a privately held company located in the United Kingdom. The Company records the results of this entity under the equity method as it does not have a controlling interest in the entity.

The Company’s unaudited interim financial statements are prepared on a quarterly basis ending on the Friday closest to the end of the calendar quarter, with the exception of the fourth quarter which always ends on December 31.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company evaluates its estimates based on historical experience, current conditions and various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period in which they are deemed to be necessary. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” ASU 2014-08 provides guidance on determining when disposals can be presented as discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 requires that only disposals representing a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results should be presented as discontinued operations. A strategic shift may include a disposal of a major line of business, a major equity method investment or a major part of an entity. Additionally, ASU 2014-08 requires expanded disclosures regarding discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company adopted this pronouncement in January 2015.

Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, “Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement,” which provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement

consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for the arrangement as a service contract. ASU 2015-05 will be effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. Upon adoption, an entity may apply the new guidance either retrospectively or prospectively to all arrangements entered into or materially modified after the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2015-05 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” ASU 2015-03 requires debt issuance related costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the associated debt liability, consistent with the presentation of a debt discount. ASU 2015-03 will be effective on a retrospective basis for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which provides guidance for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. Upon adoption, an entity may apply the new guidance either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively only to customer contracts not yet completed as of the date of adoption with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized in beginning retained earnings at the date of the initial application. In July 2015, the FASB reached a decision to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year, with the option of early adoption as of the original effective date. The deferral will result in ASU 2014-09 being effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)," which requires management to assess a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. ASU 2014-15 will be effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

 

2. Business Combinations

On February 19, 2015, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Applimotion Inc. (“Applimotion”), a Loomis, California based provider of advanced precision motor and motion control technology to OEM customers in the advanced industrial and medical markets, for a total purchase price of $14.0 million, net of working capital adjustments. The purchase price includes $13.0 million in cash paid for the acquisition and $1.0 million estimated fair value of future contingent consideration payable upon the achievement of certain revenue targets for fiscal years 2015 to 2017. The undiscounted range of possible contingent consideration is zero to $4.0 million. The Company expects that the addition of Applimotion will enable the Company to offer a broader range of motion control technologies and integrated solutions to customers. The Company recognized Applimotion acquisition costs of less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million during the three and six months ended July 3, 2015, respectively. Acquisition-related costs are included in restructuring, acquisition and divestiture related costs in the consolidated statements of operations.

The acquisition of Applimotion has been accounted for as a business combination. The allocation of the purchase price is based upon the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. The fair values of intangible assets were based on valuations using an income approach, with estimates and assumptions provided by management of Applimotion and the Company. The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and the contingent consideration liability requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows and developing appropriate discount rates. The excess of the purchase price over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill.

The total purchase price was allocated as follows (in thousands):

 

The fair value of intangible assets is comprised of the following (dollar amounts in thousands):

 

  

The purchase price allocation resulted in $7.6 million of goodwill and $6.1 million of identifiable intangible assets, none of which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Intangible assets are being amortized over their weighted average useful lives primarily based upon the pattern in which anticipated economic benefits from such assets are expected to be realized. The goodwill recorded represents the anticipated incremental value of future cash flow potential attributable to: (i) Applimotion’s ability to grow their business with existing and new customers, (ii) the potential to realize cost improvements due to scale and more efficient operations, (iii) the opportunity to serve customers with integrated assemblies that feature products from both Applimotion and the Company and, (iv) the potential to sell the Company’s products into Applimotion’s customer base.

The results of the Applimotion acquisition were included in the Company’s results of operations beginning on February 19, 2015. The pro forma financial information reflecting the operating results of Applimotion, as if it had been acquired on January 1, 2014, is not presented herein as it would not differ materially from the operating results of the Company as reported for 2014. Applimotion is included in the Company’s Precision Motion reportable segment.

3. Discontinued Operations and Divestitures

In June 2015, the Company finalized an agreement to divest its 50% owned joint venture, the India JV, and recorded a pre-tax loss of less than $0.1 million in operating loss from discontinued operations, net of tax during the three months ended July 3, 2015. All assets, liabilities, accumulated other comprehensive income and non-controlling interest of the India JV were derecognized as of the date of the agreement.  

On April 15, 2015, the Company completed the sale of certain assets and liabilities of its JK Lasers business, previously included in the Laser Products reportable segment, for approximately $30.6 million in cash, received upon closing, net of transaction costs. As of July 3, 2015, the working capital adjustments had not yet been settled and were estimated to be a cash payment of $1.0 million to the buyer. During the three months ended July 3, 2015, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain on sale of $19.6 million in other income (expense), net on the consolidated statement of operations. The JK Lasers business divestiture does not qualify for discontinued operations accounting treatment.

In July 2014, the Company completed the sale of certain assets and liabilities of its Scientific Lasers business for approximately $6.5 million in cash, net of working capital adjustments.  In accordance with the purchase and sale agreement, $1.5 million of the sales proceeds is held in escrow until January 2016. The $1.5 million escrow is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the balance sheet as of July 3, 2015 and other long-term assets as of December 31, 2014.

Assets and liabilities of discontinued operations as of December 31, 2014 included the balances of the India JV. There were no assets and liabilities of discontinued operations as of July 3, 2015. The major components of the assets and liabilities of discontinued operations as of December 31, 2014, respectively, were as follows (in thousands):

4. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was as follows (in thousands):

 

 

 

5. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. For diluted earnings per common share, the denominator also includes the dilutive effect of outstanding restricted stock units determined using the treasury stock method. Dilutive effects of contingently issuable shares are included in the weighted average dilutive share calculation when the contingencies have been resolved. For periods in which net losses are generated, the dilutive potential common shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the effect would be anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Common Stock Repurchases

In October 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase plan under which the Company may repurchase outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock up to an aggregate amount of $10.0 million. The shares may be repurchased from time to time, at the Company’s discretion, based on ongoing assessment of the capital needs of the business, the market price of the Company’s common stock, and general market conditions. Shares may also be repurchased through an accelerated stock purchase agreement, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. Repurchases may be made under certain SEC regulations, which would permit common stock to be purchased when the Company would otherwise be prohibited from doing so under insider trading laws. The share repurchase plan does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock. No time limit was set for the completion of the share repurchase program, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had cumulatively repurchased 50 thousand shares of its common stock for an aggregate amount of $0.5 million. There have been no share repurchases to date in 2015.

 

6. Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the following three levels of inputs:

The Company’s cash equivalents are investments in money market accounts, which represent the only asset the Company measures at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company determines the fair value of our cash equivalents using a market approach based on quoted prices in active markets which is classified as Level 1. The contingent consideration is classified as Level 3 as the fair value is based on unobservable inputs. The fair values of cash, accounts receivable, income taxes receivable, accounts payable, income taxes payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their carrying values because of their short-term nature.

The following table summarizes the fair values of our financial assets and liabilities as of July 3, 2015 (in thousands):
