related assets to landry 's for $ 10 million . the sale of the mitchell 's restaurants closed on january 21 , 2015. the assets sold consist primarily of leasehold interests , leasehold improvements , restaurant equipment and furnishings , inventory , and related intangible assets , including brand names and trademarks associated with the 21 mitchell 's restaurants . under the terms of the agreement , landry 's assumed the mitchell 's restaurants ' facility lease obligations and the company will reimburse landry 's for gift cards sold prior to the closing date and used at the mitchell 's restaurants during the eighteen months following the closing date . during the third quarter of fiscal year 2016 , the company recognized a $ 466 thousand benefit from the extinguishment of the liability related to these gift cards . for financial reporting purposes , the mitchell 's restaurants are classified as a discontinued operation for all periods presented . recap of fiscal year 2016 and fiscal year 2015 operating results operating income for fiscal year 2016 increased from fiscal year 2015 by $ 2.8 million to $ 47.6 million . operating income for fiscal year 2016 was favorably impacted by an $ 11.3 million increase in restaurant sales and a decrease in food and beverage costs of $ 1.0 million . these favorable impacts were somewhat offset by increased restaurant operating expenses , marketing and advertising , general and administrative costs , depreciation and amortization expenses and pre-opening costs . higher restaurant sales were attributable both to an increase in comparable company-owned restaurant sales and new or relocated restaurants . after-tax income from continuing operations during fiscal year 2016 increased from fiscal year 2015 by $ 589 thousand to $ 30.8 million . fiscal year 2016 net income increased from fiscal year 2015 by $ 461 thousand to $ 30.5 million . operating income for fiscal year 2015 increased from fiscal year 2014 by $ 5.1 million to $ 44.8 million . operating income for fiscal year 2015 was favorably impacted by a $ 26.4 million increase in restaurant sales , which was somewhat offset by increased food and beverage costs and restaurant operating expenses . higher restaurant sales were attributable both to an increase in comparable company-owned restaurant sales and new or relocated restaurants . after-tax income from continuing operations during fiscal year 2015 increased from fiscal year 2014 by $ 3.5 million to $ 30.2 million . fiscal year 2015 net income increased from fiscal year 2014 by $ 13.5 million to $ 30.0 million . net income for fiscal year 2014 was adversely impacted by a $ 10.3 million loss from discontinued operations . the fiscal year 2014 loss from discontinued operations was largely attributable to the impairment of the assets of the mitchell 's restaurants . key financial terms and metrics we evaluate our business using a variety of key financial measures : restaurant sales . restaurant sales consist of food and beverage sales by company-owned restaurants . restaurant sales are primarily influenced by total operating weeks in the relevant period and comparable restaurant sales growth . total operating weeks is the total number of company-owned restaurants multiplied by the number of weeks each is in operation during the relevant period . total operating weeks are impacted by restaurant openings and closings , as well as changes in the number of weeks included in the relevant period . comparable restaurant sales growth reflects the change in year-over-year or quarter-over-quarter , as applicable , sales for the comparable restaurant base . we define the comparable restaurant base to be those company-owned restaurants in operation for not less than fifteen months prior to the beginning of the fiscal quarter including the period being measured . comparable restaurant sales growth is primarily influenced by customer traffic , which is measured by the number of entrรฉes sold , and the average guest check . customer traffic is influenced by the popularity of our menu items , our guest mix , our ability to deliver a high-quality dining experience and overall economic conditions . average guest check , a measure of total restaurant sales divided by the number of entrรฉes , is driven by menu mix and pricing . franchise income . franchise income includes ( 1 ) franchise and development fees charged to franchisees and ( 2 ) royalty income . franchise royalties consist of 5.0 % of adjusted gross sales from each franchisee-owned restaurant . in addition , our more recent franchise agreements require up to a 1.0 % advertising fee to be paid by the franchisee , which is applied to national advertising expenditures . under our prior franchise agreements , the company would pay 1.0 % out of the 5.0 % royalty toward national advertising . we evaluate the performance of our franchisees by measuring franchisee-owned restaurant operating weeks , which is impacted by franchisee-owned restaurant openings and closings , and comparable franchisee-owned restaurant sales growth , which together with operating weeks , drives royalty income . 22 other operating income . other operating income consists primarily of breakage income associated with gift cards , and also includes fees earned from a management agreement , banquet-related guarantee and services revenue and other incidental guest fees . food and beverage costs . food and beverage costs include all restaurant-level food and beverage costs of company-owned restaurants . we measure food and beverage costs by tracking cost of sales as a percentage of restaurant sales and cost per entrรฉe . story_separator_special_tag historically , the percentages of our annual total revenues during the first and fourth fiscal quarters have been higher due , in part , to the year-end holiday season . accordingly , results for any one quarter are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other quarter or for any year , and comparable restaurant sales for any particular period may decrease . story_separator_special_tag i > capital expenditures in fiscal year 2016 , which aggregated $ 26.2 million , pertained primarily to $ 13.5 million for new restaurants and $ 8.4 million for restaurant remodel projects . capital expenditures in fiscal year 2015 , which aggregated $ 20.3 million , pertained primarily to : $ 12.5 million for restaurant remodel projects and $ 6.8 million for new restaurants . capital expenditures in fiscal year 2014 , which aggregated

( together with landry 's inc. , landry 's ) , entered into an asset purchase agreement ( the agreement ) . pursuant to the agreement , the company agreed to sell the mitchell 's restaurants and related assets to landry 's for $ 10 million . the sale of the mitchell 's restaurants closed on january 21 , 2015. the assets sold consist primarily of leasehold interests , leasehold improvements , restaurant equipment and furnishings , inventory , and related intangible assets , including brand names and trademarks associated with the 21 mitchell 's restaurants . under the terms of the agreement , landry 's assumed the mitchell 's restaurants ' facility lease obligations and the company will reimburse landry 's for gift cards sold prior to the closing date and used at the mitchell 's restaurants during the eighteen months following the closing date . during the third quarter of fiscal year 2016 , the company recognized a $ 466 thousand benefit from the extinguishment of the liability related to these gift cards . for financial reporting purposes , the mitchell 's restaurants are classified as a discontinued operation for all periods presented . recap of fiscal year 2016 and fiscal year 2015 operating results operating income for fiscal year 2016 increased from fiscal year 2015 by $ 2.8 million to $ 47.6 million . operating income for fiscal year 2016 was favorably impacted by an $ 11.3 million increase in restaurant sales and a decrease in food and beverage costs of $ 1.0 million . these favorable impacts were somewhat offset by increased restaurant operating expenses , marketing and advertising , general and administrative costs , depreciation and amortization expenses and pre-opening costs . higher restaurant sales were attributable both to an increase in comparable company-owned restaurant sales and new or relocated restaurants . after-tax income from continuing operations during fiscal year 2016 increased from fiscal year 2015 by $ 589 thousand to $ 30.8 million . fiscal year 2016 net income increased from fiscal year 2015 by $ 461 thousand to $ 30.5 million . operating income for fiscal year 2015 increased from fiscal year 2014 by $ 5.1 million to $ 44.8 million . operating income for fiscal year 2015 was favorably impacted by a $ 26.4 million increase in restaurant sales , which was somewhat offset by increased food and beverage costs and restaurant operating expenses . higher restaurant sales were attributable both to an increase in comparable company-owned restaurant sales and new or relocated restaurants . after-tax income from continuing operations during fiscal year 2015 increased from fiscal year 2014 by $ 3.5 million to $ 30.2 million . fiscal year 2015 net income increased from fiscal year 2014 by $ 13.5 million to $ 30.0 million . net income for fiscal year 2014 was adversely impacted by a $ 10.3 million loss from discontinued operations . the fiscal year 2014 loss from discontinued operations was largely attributable to the impairment of the assets of the mitchell 's restaurants . key financial terms and metrics we evaluate our business using a variety of key financial measures : restaurant sales . restaurant sales consist of food and beverage sales by company-owned restaurants . restaurant sales are primarily influenced by total operating weeks in the relevant period and comparable restaurant sales growth . total operating weeks is the total number of company-owned restaurants multiplied by the number of weeks each is in operation during the relevant period . total operating weeks are impacted by restaurant openings and closings , as well as changes in the number of weeks included in the relevant period . comparable restaurant sales growth reflects the change in year-over-year or quarter-over-quarter , as applicable , sales for the comparable restaurant base . we define the comparable restaurant base to be those company-owned restaurants in operation for not less than fifteen months prior to the beginning of the fiscal quarter including the period being measured . comparable restaurant sales growth is primarily influenced by customer traffic , which is measured by the number of entrรฉes sold , and the average guest check . customer traffic is influenced by the popularity of our menu items , our guest mix , our ability to deliver a high-quality dining experience and overall economic conditions . average guest check , a measure of total restaurant sales divided by the number of entrรฉes , is driven by menu mix and pricing . franchise income . franchise income includes ( 1 ) franchise and development fees charged to franchisees and ( 2 ) royalty income . franchise royalties consist of 5.0 % of adjusted gross sales from each franchisee-owned restaurant . in addition , our more recent franchise agreements require up to a 1.0 % advertising fee to be paid by the franchisee , which is applied to national advertising expenditures . under our prior franchise agreements , the company would pay 1.0 % out of the 5.0 % royalty toward national advertising . we evaluate the performance of our franchisees by measuring franchisee-owned restaurant operating weeks , which is impacted by franchisee-owned restaurant openings and closings , and comparable franchisee-owned restaurant sales growth , which together with operating weeks , drives royalty income . 22 other operating income . other operating income consists primarily of breakage income associated with gift cards , and also includes fees earned from a management agreement , banquet-related guarantee and services revenue and other incidental guest fees . food and beverage costs . food and beverage costs include all restaurant-level food and beverage costs of company-owned restaurants . we measure food and beverage costs by tracking cost of sales as a percentage of restaurant sales and cost per entrรฉe . story_separator_special_tag historically , the percentages of our annual total revenues during the first and fourth fiscal quarters have been higher due , in part , to the year-end holiday season . accordingly , results for any one quarter are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other quarter or for any year , and comparable restaurant sales for any particular period may decrease . story_separator_special_tag i > capital expenditures in fiscal year 2016 , which aggregated $ 26.2 million , pertained primarily to $ 13.5 million for new restaurants and $ 8.4 million for restaurant remodel projects . capital expenditures in fiscal year 2015 , which aggregated $ 20.3 million , pertained primarily to : $ 12.5 million for restaurant remodel projects and $ 6.8 million for new restaurants . capital expenditures in fiscal year 2014 , which aggregated $ 20.1 million , pertained primarily to $ 7.7 million for various restaurant remodel projects ; $ 9.7 million for new restaurants ; and $ 2.8 million for the acquisition of the austin , tx ruth 's chris steak house restaurant from the owner franchisee . we anticipate capital expenditures in fiscal year 2017 will be approximately $ 24.0 to $ 26.0 million . we currently expect to open three company-owned restaurants at leased locations and one restaurant operating under a contractual agreement in fiscal year 2017. cash flows the following table summarizes our primary sources and uses of

the terms of these agreements include payment to us of one or more of the following : nonrefundable , up-front license fees ; milestone payments ; and royalties on product sales . revenue from our human therapeutics segment is shown in our consolidated statements of operations as collaborative arrangements revenue . revenue from our biomanufacturing segment was generated by our former subsidiary , microbia , which had entered into research and development service agreements with various third parties . these agreements generally provided for fees for research and development services rendered . as a result of the sale of our interest in microbia , revenue from our biomanufacturing segment is included in net income ( loss ) from discontinued operations . we expect our revenue to fluctuate for the foreseeable future as our collaborative arrangements revenue is principally based on the achievement of clinical and commercial milestones . research and development expense . research and development expense consists of expenses incurred in connection with the discovery and development of our product candidates . these expenses consist primarily of compensation , benefits and other employee related expenses , research and development related facility costs and third-party contract costs relating to research , formulation , manufacturing , preclinical study and clinical trial activities . the costs of revenue related to the microbia services contracts and costs associated with microbia 's research and development activities are included in net income ( loss ) from discontinued operations . we charge all research and development expenses to operations as incurred . under our forest collaboration agreement we are reimbursed for certain research and development expenses and we net these reimbursements against our research and development expenses as incurred . 43 our lead product candidate is linaclotide and it represents the largest portion of our research and development expense for our product candidates . linaclotide is a first-in-class compound currently in phase 3 clinical development for the treatment of ibs-c and cc and is our only product candidate that has demonstrated clinical proof of concept . in september and november 2010 , we announced the positive top-line results from each of the two phase 3 clinical trials assessing the safety and efficacy of linaclotide in patients with ibs-c , and in november 2009 , we announced that we achieved positive results in each of our phase 3 cc trials . we have a pipeline of early stage , pre-proof of concept development candidates in multiple therapeutic areas , including gastrointestinal disease , pain and inflammation , and respiratory disease . we are also conducting early stage , preclinical research in these therapeutic areas , as well as in the area of cardiovascular disease . the following table sets forth our research and development expenses related to our product pipeline for the years ended december 31 , 2010 , 2009 and 2008. these expenses relate primarily to external costs associated with manufacturing , preclinical studies and clinical trial costs . costs related to facilities , depreciation , share-based compensation and research and development support services are not directly charged to programs . replace_table_token_5_th we began tracking program expenses for linaclotide in 2004 , and research and development program expenses from inception to december 31 , 2010 were approximately $ 123.4 million . the expenses for linaclotide include both reimbursements to us by forest as well as our portion of costs incurred by forest for linaclotide and invoiced to us under the cost-sharing provisions of our collaboration agreement . the lengthy process of securing fda approvals for new drugs requires the expenditure of substantial resources . any failure by us to obtain , or any delay in obtaining , regulatory approvals would materially adversely affect our product development efforts and our business overall . accordingly , we can not currently estimate with any degree of certainty the amount of time or money that we will be required to expend in the future on linaclotide or our other product candidates prior to their regulatory approval , if such approval is ever granted . as a result of these uncertainties surrounding the timing and outcome of any approvals , we are currently unable to estimate precisely when , if ever , linaclotide , or any of our other product candidates will generate revenues and cash flows . we invest carefully in our pipeline , and the commitment of funding for each subsequent stage of our development programs is dependent upon the receipt of clear , supportive data . in addition , we are actively engaged in evaluating externally discovered drug candidates at all stages of development . in evaluating potential assets , we apply the same criteria as those used for investments in internally-discovered assets . the majority of our external costs are spent on linaclotide , as costs associated with later stage clinical trials are , in most cases , more significant than those incurred in earlier stages of our pipeline . we expect external costs related to the linaclotide program to begin decreasing provided that no other clinical trials are necessary to obtain regulatory approval in the u.s. if our other product candidates are successful in early stage clinical trials , we would expect external costs to increase as the programs progress through later stage clinical trials . the remainder of our research and development expense is not tracked by project as it consists primarily of our internal costs , and it benefits multiple projects that are in earlier stages of development and which typically share resources . 44 the successful development of our product candidates is highly uncertain and subject to a number of risks including , but not limited to : the duration of clinical trials may vary substantially according to the type , complexity and novelty of the product candidate . story_separator_special_tag our forfeiture rates were 5.5 % , 5.8 % and 4.4 % as of december 31 , 2010 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively . if our actual forfeiture rate varies from our historical rates and estimates , additional adjustments to compensation expense may be required in future periods . we have historically granted stock options at exercise prices not less than the fair value of our common stock as determined by our board of directors , with input from management . due to the absence of an active market for our common stock , prior to our initial public offering on february 2 , 2010 , our board of directors has historically determined , with input from management , the estimated fair value of our common stock on the date of grant based on a number of objective and subjective factors , including : the prices at which we sold shares of convertible preferred stock ; the superior rights and preferences of securities senior to our common stock at the time of each grant ; the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event such as an initial public offering or sale of our company ; our historical operating and financial performance and the status of our research and product development efforts ; achievement of enterprise milestones , including our entering into collaboration and license agreements ; and external market conditions affecting the biotechnology industry sector . 49 in connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the years ended december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , our board of directors also considered valuations provided by management in determining the fair value of our common stock . such valuations were prepared as of march 31 , june 30 , october 28 and december 31 , 2008 , and march 31 , june 30 , september 30 , november 2 and december 31 , 2009 , and valued our common stock at $ 4.33 , $ 4.67 , $ 4.98 , $ 4.89 , $ 5.00 , $ 5.48 , $ 7.36 , $ 11.75 and $ 12.05 per share , respectively . the valuations have been used to estimate the fair value of our common stock as of each option grant date and in calculating share-based compensation expense . our board of directors has consistently used the most recent quarterly valuation provided by management for determining the fair value of our common stock unless a specific event occurred that necessitated an interim valuation . the valuations were prepared consistent with the american institute of certified public accountants practice aid , valuation of privately-held company equity securities issued as compensation , or the practice aid . we used the guideline company method and the similar transaction method of the market approach , which compare our company to similar publicly-traded companies or transactions , and an income approach , which looks at projected future cash flows , to value our company from among the alternatives discussed in the practice aid . in addition , as we had several series of convertible preferred stock outstanding prior to our initial public offering in february 2010 , it was also necessary to allocate our company 's value to the various classes of stock , including stock options . as provided in the practice aid , there are several approaches for allocating enterprise value of a privately-held company among the securities held in a complex capital structure . the possible methodologies include the probability-weighted expected return method , the option-pricing method and the current value method . we used the probability-weighted expected return method described in the practice aid to allocate the enterprise values to the common stock . under this method , the value of our common stock is estimated based upon an analysis of future values for our company assuming various future outcomes , the timing of which is based on the plans of our board of directors and management . under this approach , share value is based on the probability-weighted present value of expected future investment returns , considering each of the possible outcomes available to us , as well as the rights of each share class . we estimated the fair value of our common stock using a probability-weighted analysis of the present value of the returns afforded to our stockholders under each of four possible future scenarios . three of the scenarios assumed a stockholder exit , either through an ipo or a sale of our company . the fourth scenario assumed a sale of our company at a value that is less than the cumulative amounts invested by our preferred stockholders . for the march 31 , 2008 valuation , we utilized a one product ipo scenario reflecting only linaclotide advancing in the clinic at the time of an ipo . beginning with the october 28 , 2008 valuation , we included two separate ipo scenarios to better reflect our company 's risk profile at that time . the linaclotide program was by then advancing in two indications , cc and ibs-c. we believed that the ibs-c indication had a significantly higher market value and higher clinical risk for ironwood . to better reflect the potential liquidity outcomes for linaclotide , the first ipo scenario included an assumption of successful phase 3 clinical trials for both the cc and ibs-c indications at the time of an ipo , and the second ipo scenario reflected successful phase 3 clinical trials in only the cc indication at the time of the ipo . for both ipo scenarios and the sale scenario , the estimated future values of our common stock were calculated using assumptions including : the expected pre-money or sale valuations based on the market approach , and the income approach using the discounted cash flow method , and the expected dates of the future expected ipo or sale . for the sale at an assumed price less than the liquidation preference scenario , the estimated future and present

activities are included in net income ( loss ) from discontinued operations . we charge all research and development expenses to operations as incurred . under our forest collaboration agreement we are reimbursed for certain research and development expenses and we net these reimbursements against our research and development expenses as incurred . 43 our lead product candidate is linaclotide and it represents the largest portion of our research and development expense for our product candidates . linaclotide is a first-in-class compound currently in phase 3 clinical development for the treatment of ibs-c and cc and is our only product candidate that has demonstrated clinical proof of concept . in september and november 2010 , we announced the positive top-line results from each of the two phase 3 clinical trials assessing the safety and efficacy of linaclotide in patients with ibs-c , and in november 2009 , we announced that we achieved positive results in each of our phase 3 cc trials . we have a pipeline of early stage , pre-proof of concept development candidates in multiple therapeutic areas , including gastrointestinal disease , pain and inflammation , and respiratory disease . we are also conducting early stage , preclinical research in these therapeutic areas , as well as in the area of cardiovascular disease . the following table sets forth our research and development expenses related to our product pipeline for the years ended december 31 , 2010 , 2009 and 2008. these expenses relate primarily to external costs associated with manufacturing , preclinical studies and clinical trial costs . costs related to facilities , depreciation , share-based compensation and research and development support services are not directly charged to programs . replace_table_token_5_th we began tracking program expenses for linaclotide in 2004 , and research and development program expenses from inception to december 31 , 2010 were approximately $ 123.4 million . the expenses for linaclotide include both reimbursements to us by forest as well as our portion of costs incurred by forest for linaclotide and invoiced to us under the cost-sharing provisions of our collaboration agreement . the lengthy process of securing fda approvals for new drugs requires the expenditure of substantial resources . any failure by us to obtain , or any delay in obtaining , regulatory approvals would materially adversely affect our product development efforts and our business overall . accordingly , we can not currently estimate with any degree of certainty the amount of time or money that we will be required to expend in the future on linaclotide or our other product candidates prior to their regulatory approval , if such approval is ever granted . as a result of these uncertainties surrounding the timing and outcome of any approvals , we are currently unable to estimate precisely when , if ever , linaclotide , or any of our other product candidates will generate revenues and cash flows . we invest carefully in our pipeline , and the commitment of funding for each subsequent stage of our development programs is dependent upon the receipt of clear , supportive data . in addition , we are actively engaged in evaluating externally discovered drug candidates at all stages of development . in evaluating potential assets , we apply the same criteria as those used for investments in internally-discovered assets . the majority of our external costs are spent on linaclotide , as costs associated with later stage clinical trials are , in most cases , more significant than those incurred in earlier stages of our pipeline . we expect external costs related to the linaclotide program to begin decreasing provided that no other clinical trials are necessary to obtain regulatory approval in the u.s. if our other product candidates are successful in early stage clinical trials , we would expect external costs to increase as the programs progress through later stage clinical trials . the remainder of our research and development expense is not tracked by project as it consists primarily of our internal costs , and it benefits multiple projects that are in earlier stages of development and which typically share resources . 44 the successful development of our product candidates is highly uncertain and subject to a number of risks including , but not limited to : the duration of clinical trials may vary substantially according to the type , complexity and novelty of the product candidate . story_separator_special_tag our forfeiture rates were 5.5 % , 5.8 % and 4.4 % as of december 31 , 2010 , 2009 and 2008 , respectively . if our actual forfeiture rate varies from our historical rates and estimates , additional adjustments to compensation expense may be required in future periods . we have historically granted stock options at exercise prices not less than the fair value of our common stock as determined by our board of directors , with input from management . due to the absence of an active market for our common stock , prior to our initial public offering on february 2 , 2010 , our board of directors has historically determined , with input from management , the estimated fair value of our common stock on the date of grant based on a number of objective and subjective factors , including : the prices at which we sold shares of convertible preferred stock ; the superior rights and preferences of securities senior to our common stock at the time of each grant ; the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event such as an initial public offering or sale of our company ; our historical operating and financial performance and the status of our research and product development efforts ; achievement of enterprise milestones , including our entering into collaboration and license agreements ; and external market conditions affecting the biotechnology industry sector . 49 in connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the years ended december 31 , 2009 and 2008 , our board of directors also considered valuations provided by management in determining the fair value of our common stock . such valuations were prepared as of march 31 , june 30 , october 28 and december 31 , 2008 , and march 31 , june 30 , september 30 , november 2 and december 31 , 2009 , and valued our common stock at $ 4.33 , $ 4.67 , $ 4.98 , $ 4.89 , $ 5.00 , $ 5.48 , $ 7.36 , $ 11.75 and $ 12.05 per share , respectively . the valuations have been used to estimate the fair value of our common stock as of each option grant date and in calculating share-based compensation expense . our board of directors has consistently used the most recent quarterly valuation provided by management for determining the fair value of our common stock unless a specific event occurred that necessitated an interim valuation . the valuations were prepared consistent with the american institute of certified public accountants practice aid , valuation of privately-held company equity securities issued as compensation , or the practice aid . we used the guideline company method and the similar transaction method of the market approach , which compare our company to similar publicly-traded companies or transactions , and an income approach , which looks at projected future cash flows , to value our company from among the alternatives discussed in the practice aid . in addition , as we had several series of convertible preferred stock outstanding prior to our initial public offering in february 2010 , it was also necessary to allocate our company 's value to the various classes of stock , including stock options . as provided in the practice aid , there are several approaches for allocating enterprise value of a privately-held company among the securities held in a complex capital structure . the possible methodologies include the probability-weighted expected return method , the option-pricing method and the current value method . we used the probability-weighted expected return method described in the practice aid to allocate the enterprise values to the common stock . under this method , the value of our common stock is estimated based upon an analysis of future values for our company assuming various future outcomes , the timing of which is based on the plans of our board of directors and management . under this approach , share value is based on the probability-weighted present value of expected future investment returns , considering each of the possible outcomes available to us , as well as the rights of each share class . we estimated the fair value of our common stock using a probability-weighted analysis of the present value of the returns afforded to our stockholders under each of four possible future scenarios . three of the scenarios assumed a stockholder exit , either through an ipo or a sale of our company . the fourth scenario assumed a sale of our company at a value that is less than the cumulative amounts invested by our preferred stockholders . for the march 31 , 2008 valuation , we utilized a one product ipo scenario reflecting only linaclotide advancing in the clinic at the time of an ipo . beginning with the october 28 , 2008 valuation , we included two separate ipo scenarios to better reflect our company 's risk profile at that time . the linaclotide program was by then advancing in two indications , cc and ibs-c. we believed that the ibs-c indication had a significantly higher market value and higher clinical risk for ironwood . to better reflect the potential liquidity outcomes for linaclotide , the first ipo scenario included an assumption of successful phase 3 clinical trials for both the cc and ibs-c indications at the time of an ipo , and the second ipo scenario reflected successful phase 3 clinical trials in only the cc indication at the time of the ipo . for both ipo scenarios and the sale scenario , the estimated future values of our common stock were calculated using assumptions including : the expected pre-money or sale valuations based on the market approach , and the income approach using the discounted cash flow method , and the expected dates of the future expected ipo or sale . for the sale at an assumed price less than the liquidation preference scenario , the estimated future and present

globaltrak on april 3 , 2013 , we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of globaltrak , a division of system planning corporation ( ย“spcย” ) . the consideration paid to acquire globaltrak was $ 3.0 million in cash , subject to a final working capital adjustment , of which $ 0.5 million was deposited into an escrow account with a third party escrow agent to fund any indemnification obligation of spc to us , primarily for breaches of representations and warranties made by spc . during the three months ended september 30 , 2013 , we reached an agreement with spc for a final working capital adjustment of $ 0.1 million which was paid to us . as of december 31 , 2013 , this amount was recorded as a decrease to goodwill in our consolidated balance sheet since the adjustment was within the one-year measurement period . as a result of the acquisition of globaltrak , we recognized $ 2.5 million of goodwill and $ 0.5 million of intangible assets , which consist of technology , trade names and trademarks and customer lists . the results of operations of globaltrak are included in our consolidated results for the period subsequent to the acquisition date of april 3 , 2013. the acquisition of globaltrak gives us access to a customer base that includes military , international , government and commercial customers as well as expanded reach in growing regions , such as the middle east , asia and south america . 54 mobilenet , inc. on april 1 , 2013 , we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of mobilenet , inc. ( ย“mobilenetย” ) . the consideration paid by us at closing consisted of $ 3.2 million in cash , subject to a final working capital adjustment specified in the acquisition agreement , and the issuance of 329,344 shares of our common stock ( valued at $ 4.96 per share , which reflected our closing price of common stock on april 1 , 2013 ) , of which 164,672 shares of common stock were placed into an escrow account for up to 15 months from closing to fund any indemnification obligations of mobilenet to us , primarily for breaches of representations and warranties made by mobilenet . during the three months ended september 30 , 2013 , we reached an agreement with mobilenet for a final working capital adjustment of less than $ 0.1 million which was paid to mobilenet . as of december 31 , 2013 , this amount was recorded as an increase to goodwill in our consolidated balance sheet since the adjustment was within the one-year measurement period . in addition to the consideration paid at closing , the acquisition agreement provides for contingent consideration payable by us to mobilenet if service revenues attributable to the mobilenet business for either of the two one year earn-out periods , may 1 , 2013 through april 30 , 2014 and may 1 , 2014 through april 30 , 2015 , are in excess of the specified baseline amount . in that event , we have agreed to pay to mobilenet an amount equal to ( i ) 50 % of the first $ 2.0 million of such excess amount for the applicable earn-out period and ( ii ) 35 % of any amount of such excess amount for the applicable earn-out period which is greater than $ 2.0 million . up to 50 % of any potential earn-out amounts can be paid in common stock at our option . any shares of common stock to be issued will be based on the 20-day average closing price of the common stock prior to the last trading day of the earn-out period . at the acquisition date , we recorded a liability of $ 1.5 million for the estimated value of the earn-out amounts . any change in the fair value of the earn-out amounts subsequent to the acquisition date , including changes from events after the acquisition date , will be recognized in earnings in the period the estimated fair value changes . for the year ended december 31 , 2013 , the fair value of the earn-out amounts was decreased by $ 0.6 million which is recorded as a reduction to selling , general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of operations . as a result of the acquisition of mobilenet , we recognized $ 2.9 million of goodwill and $ 3.5 million of intangible assets , which consist of technology , trademarks and customer lists . the results of operations of mobilenet are included in our consolidated results for the period subsequent to the acquisition date of april 1 , 2013. the acquisition of mobilenet will enable us to offer mobilenet 's complete fleet management solution directly to original equipment manufacturers , dealers and fleet owners . the acquired goodwill from the acquisitions of sens , globaltrak and mobilenet will not be amortized for financial reporting purposes . however the acquired goodwill is tax deductible , and therefore amortized over fifteen years for income tax purposes . as such , deferred income tax expense and a deferred tax liability arise as a result of the difference in tax deductibility of this amount for tax and financial reporting purposes . the resulting deferred tax liability , which is expected to continue to increase over time and will remain on our balance sheet indefinitely unless there is an impairment of the goodwill . see note 4 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion on the acquisitions of sens , globaltrak and mobilenet . story_separator_special_tag however , due to an anomaly on one of the falcon 9 's first stage engines , the rocket did not comply with a pre-planned international space station safety gate to allow it to execute the second burn . for this reason , the next-generation prototype was deployed into a lower orbit as the result of a pre-imposed safety check required by nasa . as a result of the lower than intended orbit , the prototype satellite de-orbited on october 10 , 2012 despite all available efforts to raise the orbit using the satellite 's on-board propulsion system . as a result , we recognized during the fourth quarter of 2012 an impairment charge of $ 9.8 million . on december 7 , 2012 , we received $ 10.0 million from its insurer in connection with the settlement of an insurance claim arising from the loss of the prototype satellite , which represented the full amount recoverable under the insurance policy . as a result , we recorded during the fourth quarter of 2012 an insurance recovery-satellite network of $ 10 million in our consolidated statements of operations . acquisition costs and loss on other investment acquisition-related costs directly relate to our acquisitions . these costs include professional services expenses . for the years ended december 31 , 2013 , 2012 and 2011 acquisition-related costs were $ 1.7 million , $ 0.7 million and $ 1.6 million , respectively . in connection with the acquisition of startrak , we recognized a loss of $ 0.3 million on the disposition of our investment in alanco for the difference between the fair value and the carrying value . the amount of the loss was recorded in other income ( expense ) in our consolidated statements of operations for year ended december 31 , 2011. operating expenses we incur engineering expenses associated with the operation of our communications system and the development and support of new applications , as well as sales , marketing and administrative expenses related to the operation of our business . as of december 31 , 2013 , we have 186 employees . critical accounting policies and estimates our discussion and analysis of our results of operations , liquidity and capital resources are based on our consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally 60 accepted in the united states of america . the preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets , liabilities , revenues and expenses , and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities . on an on-going basis , we evaluate our estimates and judgments , including those related to revenue recognition , accounts receivable , accounting for business combinations , goodwill , satellite network and other equipment , long-lived assets , capitalized development costs , income taxes , warranty costs , loss contingencies and the value of securities underlying stock-based compensation . we base our estimates on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances , including assumptions as to future events . these estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources . by their nature , estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty . actual results may differ from our estimates and could have a significant adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position . we believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant estimates and judgments in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements . revenue recognition we recognize revenues when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists , delivery has occurred , the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured . our revenue recognition policy requires us to make significant judgments regarding the probability of collection of the resulting accounts receivable balance based on prior history and the creditworthiness of our customers . in instances where collection is not reasonably assured , revenue is recognized when we receive cash from the customer . revenues from the activation of subscriber communicators and sims are initially recorded as deferred revenues and are , thereafter , recognized ratably over the term of the agreement with the customer , generally four years which is the estimated customer relationship period . revenues generated from monthly usage and administrative fees and engineering services are recognized when the services are rendered . revenues generated from extended warranty service agreements extending beyond the initial warranty period of one year are initially recorded as deferred revenues and are , thereafter , recognized ratably over the term of the agreements generally two to five years . revenues generated from royalties under our subscriber communicator manufacturing agreements are recognized when we issue to a third party manufacturer upon request a unique serial number to be assigned to each unit manufactured by such third party manufacturer . revenues generated from the sale of satellite subscriber communicators , sims and other products are either recognized when the products are shipped or when customers accept the products , depending on the specific contractual terms . sales of subscriber communicators and sims and other items are not subject to return and title and risk of loss pass to the customer at the time of shipment . in arrangements that include multiple deliverables , we make significant estimates and judgments with the determination of revenue to be recognized . these significant estimates and judgments include identifying the various elements in an arrangement , determining if the delivered items have stand-alone value and the relative selling prices . accounts receivable accounts receivable are due in accordance with payment terms included in our negotiated contracts . amounts due are stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts . accounts that are outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due . we make ongoing assumptions and judgments

of 329,344 shares of our common stock ( valued at $ 4.96 per share , which reflected our closing price of common stock on april 1 , 2013 ) , of which 164,672 shares of common stock were placed into an escrow account for up to 15 months from closing to fund any indemnification obligations of mobilenet to us , primarily for breaches of representations and warranties made by mobilenet . during the three months ended september 30 , 2013 , we reached an agreement with mobilenet for a final working capital adjustment of less than $ 0.1 million which was paid to mobilenet . as of december 31 , 2013 , this amount was recorded as an increase to goodwill in our consolidated balance sheet since the adjustment was within the one-year measurement period . in addition to the consideration paid at

periods , may 1 , 2013 through april 30 , 2014 and may 1 , 2014 through april 30 , 2015 , are in excess of the specified baseline amount . in that event , we have agreed to pay to mobilenet an amount equal to ( i ) 50 % of the first $ 2.0 million of such excess amount for the applicable earn-out period and ( ii ) 35 % of any amount of such excess amount for the applicable earn-out period which is

under our ground leases we are typically not responsible for any operating or capital expenses over the life of the lease , making the management of our portfolio relatively simple , with limited working capital needs . we believe institutional owners of commercial real estate increasingly understand that the structure of our safehold tm ground lease allows owners of high quality properties to generate higher returns with less risk . we experienced significant customer demand for our safehold tm ground leases during the year ended december 31 , 2019 , and we expect that increased customer experience and market recognition should generate greater demand for safehold tm ground leases from building owners and acquirers going forward . 31 our portfolio our portfolio of properties is diversified by property type and region . our portfolio is comprised of ground leases and a master lease ( relating to five hotel assets that we refer to as our โ€œ park hotels portfolio โ€ ) that has many of the characteristics of a ground lease , including length of lease term , percentage rent participations , triple net terms and strong ground rent coverage ( which was 4.0x as of december 31 , 2019 on a weighted average basis ) . below is an overview of the top 10 assets in our portfolio as of december 31 , 2019 ( based on gross book value ) : ( 1 ) replace_table_token_1_th _ ( 1 ) gross book value represents the historical purchase price plus accrued interest on sales-type leases . ( 2 ) gross book value for this property represents our pro rata share of the gross book value of our unconsolidated venture ( refer to note 6 ) . ( 3 ) the park hotels portfolio consists of five properties and is subject to a single master lease . a majority of the land underlying one of these properties is owned by a third party and is ground leased to us through 2044 subject to changes in the cpi ; however , our tenant at the property pays this cost directly to the third party . 32 the following charts show certain statistics of our portfolio as of december 31 , 2019 , excluding unfunded commitments : 33 unfunded commitments in october 2017 , we entered into a commitment to acquire land subject to a ground lease on which a luxury multi-family project is currently being constructed in san jose , california . pursuant to the purchase agreement , we will acquire the ground lease on november 1 , 2020 from istar for $ 34.0 million . istar committed to provide a $ 80.5 million construction loan to the ground lessee . in august 2018 , we entered into an aggregate $ 30.0 million commitment to acquire land for $ 12.5 million and provide a $ 17.5 million leasehold improvement allowance for the ground lease tenant 's construction of a multi-family property in washington , dc . we acquired the land in june 2019 and will fund the leasehold improvement allowance upon the completion of certain conditions . in january 2019 , we acquired land for $ 13.0 million and simultaneously structured and entered into a ground lease as part of the ground lease tenant 's acquisition of an existing office building located in washington , dc that is to be converted into a multi-family building . we committed to provide the ground lease tenant a $ 10.5 million leasehold improvement allowance that will be funded upon the completion of certain conditions . in june 2019 , we acquired land for $ 8.1 million and simultaneously structured and entered into a ground lease as part of the ground lease tenant 's development of a to-be-built multi-family community located outside of orlando , fl . we committed to provide the ground lease tenant a $ 21.4 million leasehold improvement allowance that will be funded upon the completion of certain conditions . as of december 31 , 2019 , $ 2.1 million of the leasehold improvement allowance had been funded . results of operations for the year ended december 31 , 2019 compared to the year ended december 31 , 2018 replace_table_token_2_th operating lease income increased to $ 72.1 million during the year ended december 31 , 2019 from $ 47.4 million for the same period in 2018. the increase in 2019 was primarily due to the origination and acquisition of ground leases classified as operating leases . interest income from sales-type leases ( refer to note 3 ) was $ 18.5 million for the year ended december 31 , 2019 . on january 1 , 2019 , we adopted new accounting standards ( refer to note 3 ) and , as a result , now classify certain of our ground leases as sales-type leases . under sales-type leases , we accrue interest income under the effective interest method as opposed to recognition of operating lease income under the straight-line rent method for our ground leases that do not qualify as sales-type leases . we expect a majority of our newly originated ground leases will be classified as sales-type leases . other income for the year ended december 31 , 2019 was $ 2.8 million and consists primarily of $ 2.4 million of interest income earned on our cash balances and $ 0.4 million of other income relating to a ground lease in which we are the lessee but 34 our tenant at the property pays this expense directly under the terms of a master lease ( refer to note 3 ) . story_separator_special_tag reserve for losses in net investment in sales-type leases and ground lease receivablesโ€” we evaluate our net investment in sales-type leases and ground lease receivables for impairment under asc 310. as part of our process for monitoring the credit quality of our net investment in sales-type leases and ground lease receivables , we perform a quarterly assessment for each of our net investment in sales-type leases and ground lease receivables . we generally target ground lease investments in which the initial cost of the ground lease represents 30 % to 45 % of the combined property value . as such , we believe our ground lease investments represent a safe position in a property 's capital structure . this safety is derived from the typical structure of a ground lease under which the landlord has a residual right to regain possession of its land and take ownership of the buildings and improvements thereon upon a tenant default . the landlord 's residual right provides a strong incentive for a ground lease tenant or its leasehold lender to make the required ground lease rent payments and , as such , we believe there is a low likelihood of default on our net investment in sales-type leases and ground lease receivables . we consider a net investment in sales-type lease or ground lease receivable to be impaired when , based upon current information and events , we believe that it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due under the contractual terms of the ground lease . as of december 31 , 2019 , all of our net investment in sales-type leases and ground lease receivables were performing in accordance with the terms of the respective leases . any potential reserve for losses in net investment in sales-type leases and ground lease receivables will reflect management 's estimate of losses inherent in the portfolio as of the balance sheet date . if we determine that the collateral fair value less costs to sell is less than the carrying value of a collateral-dependent receivable , we will record a reserve . the reserve , if applicable , will be increased ( decreased ) through `` reserve for losses on receivables `` in our consolidated statements of operations and will be decreased by charge-offs . our policy is to charge off a receivable when we determine , based on a variety of factors , that all commercially reasonable means of recovering the receivable balance have been exhausted . this may occur at different times , including when we receive cash or other assets in a pre-foreclosure sale or take control of the underlying collateral in full satisfaction of the receivable upon foreclosure or deed-in-lieu , or when we have otherwise ceased significant collection efforts . we consider circumstances such as the foregoing to be indicators that the final steps in the receivable collection process have occurred and that a receivable is uncollectible . at this point , a loss is confirmed and the receivable and related reserve will be charged off . we have one portfolio segment represented by acquiring , managing and capitalizing ground leases , whereby we utilize a uniform process for determining our reserve for losses on our net investment in sales-type leases and ground lease receivables . interest income from sales-type leases โ€”interest income from sales-type leases is recognized under the effective interest method . the effective interest method produces a constant yield on the net investment in the sales-type lease and ground lease receivable over the term of the lease . rent payments that are not fixed and determinable at lease inception , such as percentage rent and cpi adjustments , are not included in the effective interest method calculation and are recognized in `` interest income from sales-type leases `` in our consolidated statements of operations in the period earned . a ground lease receivable is placed on non-accrual status if and when it becomes 90-days past due or we consider the ground lease receivable impaired . equity investments in ground leases โ€”equity investments in ground leases are accounted for pursuant to the equity method of accounting if we can significantly influence the operating and financial policies of the investee . we have a 54.8 % noncontrolling equity interest in a venture and have shared voting power with our partner . we determined the entity to be a voting interest entity and our equity interest is accounted for pursuant to the equity method of accounting . our periodic share of earnings and losses in equity method investees are included in `` earnings ( losses ) from equity method investments `` in our consolidated statements of operations . equity investments are included in `` equity investments in ground leases `` on our consolidated balance sheets . operating lease income โ€” operating lease income includes rent earned from leasing land and buildings owned by us to our tenants . operating lease income is recognized on the straight-line method of accounting , generally from the later of the date the lessee takes possession of the space and it is ready for its intended use or the date of acquisition of the asset subject to existing leases . accordingly , increases in contractual lease payments are recognized evenly over the term of the lease . the periodic difference 38 between operating lease income recognized under this method and contractual lease payment terms is recorded as deferred operating lease income receivable and is included in โ€˜ โ€˜ deferred operating lease income receivable `` on our consolidated balance sheets . we are also entitled to percentage rent , representing a portion of our lessee 's gross revenues from the properties , pursuant to some of our leases and record percentage rent as operating lease income when earned . operating lease income also includes the amortization of finite lived intangible assets and liabilities , which are amortized over the period during which the assets or liabilities are expected to contribute directly
liquidity and capital resources liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements , including to pay interest and repay borrowings , fund and maintain our assets and operations , complete acquisitions and originations of investments , make distributions to our stockholders and meet other general business needs . in order to qualify as a reit , we are required under the internal revenue code of 1986 to distribute to our stockholders , on an annual basis , at least 90 % of our reit taxable income , determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains . we expect to make quarterly cash distributions to our stockholders sufficient to meet reit qualification requirements . 35 as of december 31 , 2019 , we had $ 22.7 million of unrestricted cash , $ 359.0 million of undrawn capacity and the ability to borrow an additional $ 118.2 million on our 2017 revolver , subject to the conditions set forth in the applicable loan agreement ( refer to note 8 for more information on our 2017 revolver ) , without pledging any additional assets to the facility . we refer to this $ 140.9 million of unrestricted cash and additional borrowing capacity as our `` equity '' liquidity which can be used for general corporate purposes or leveraged ( a maximum of 2:1 in the case of our 2017 revolver ) to acquire new ground lease assets.

66 based on our clinical development plans for our pipeline , in the near term we intend to predominantly focus our available resources on the continued development of cudc-907 , as well as ca-170 , ca-4948 and ca-327 in collaboration with aurigene . recent developments on march 6 , 2017 , we and curis royalty entered into a new credit agreement with healthcare royalty for the purpose of refinancing the current loan with biopharma-ii . on the effective date of the credit agreement , which is expected to occur on or before march 22 , 2017 , subject to certain conditions precedent specified in the credit agreement , the current loan with biopharma-ii would terminate in its entirety . pursuant to the credit agreement , healthcare royalty would make a $ 45.0 million loan at an interest rate of 9.95 % to curis royalty , which would be used to pay off the approximately $ 18.4 million in remaining loan obligations to biopharma-ii under the prior loan . the residual proceeds of the loan would be distributed to curis as sole equity member of curis royalty . the loan from healthcare royalty would be substantially similar to the loan with biopharma-ii , including that it would be repaid from certain royalty and royalty-related payments owed by genentech under the genentech collaboration agreement . in connection with the loan , curis royalty will grant a first priority lien and security interest ( excluding certain payments allocable to academic institutions ) in all of its assets and all real , intangible and personal property , including all of its right , title and interest in and to the erivedge royalty payments . the loan constitutes an obligation of curis royalty , and is intended to be non-recourse to curis , except that ( i ) curis has agreed , as a post-closing matter , to use reasonable best efforts to obtain genentech 's consent to a pledge of curis ' equity interest in curis royalty and ( ii ) under certain circumstances arising from the breach of certain covenants and representations , healthcare royalty may proceed directly against curis . the closing of the new loan with healthcare royalty is subject to certain conditions precedent specified in the credit agreement , including the parties having received payoff and termination documentation from biopharma-ii . for a further discussion of the loan with healthcare royalty , please refer to โ€œ part ii , item 9b . other information - royalty financing transaction . โ€ our collaborations and license agreements our current collaborations and license agreements are summarized as follows : aurigene collaboration agreement collaboration overview . on january 18 , 2015 , we entered into an exclusive collaboration agreement with aurigene for the discovery , development and commercialization of small molecule compounds in the areas of immuno-oncology and selected precision oncology targets . under the collaboration agreement , aurigene granted us an option to obtain exclusive , royalty-bearing licenses to relevant aurigene technology to develop , manufacture and commercialize products containing certain of such compounds . for each program , aurigene has granted us an exclusive option , exercisable within 90 days after aurigene delivers the relevant data regarding a development candidate , to obtain an exclusive , royalty-bearing license to develop , manufacture and commercialize compounds from such program , including the development candidate and products containing such compounds , anywhere in the world with the exception of india and russia . upon our exercise of the option for a particular program , aurigene will grant us the royalty-bearing license described above for each licensed program , and we will grant aurigene an exclusive , royalty-free , fully paid license under our relevant technology to develop , manufacture and commercialize compounds from such program and products containing such compounds in india and russia . there are currently multiple licensed programs under this collaboration , including two programs targeting immune checkpoint regulators and one program targeting the irak4 kinase . in october 2015 , we exercised options to license the first two programs under this collaboration . the first licensed program is focused on the development of orally-available small molecule antagonists of the pd1 and vista pathway in the immuno-oncology field , including development candidate designated ca-170 , which is a pdl2/vista antagonist . the second licensed program is focused on orally-available small molecule inhibitors of irak4 in the precision oncology field , with the lead development candidate designated ca-4948 . in addition , in october 2015 , we selected a third program for further development under the collaboration , the second preclinical program within the immuno-oncology field , which is focused on evaluating small molecule antagonists with pd1 and tim3 immune checkpoint pathways , including compounds that target pdl1 and tim3 . in october 2016 , we exercised our option to license this third program and designated ca-327 as the development candidate . for each program we license , we are obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop , obtain regulatory approval for , and commercialize at least one product in each of the u.s. , specified countries in the european union , and japan , and aurigene is obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations under the development plan for such licensed program in an expeditious manner . subject to specified exceptions , we and aurigene have agreed to collaborate exclusively with each other on the discovery , research , development and commercialization of programs and compounds within immuno-oncology for an initial period of 67 approximately two years from the effective date of the collaboration agreement . at our option , and subject to specified conditions , we may extend such exclusivity for up to three additional one-year periods by paying to aurigene exclusivity option fees on an annual basis . story_separator_special_tag the termination of the august 2009 agreement was effective as of february 2015. we have re-designated the molecule cudc-305 . under the terms of the transition agreement , the licenses and all other rights related to cudc-305 have been terminated and reverted to us effective as of the termination date . debiopharm ceased enrollment in all clinical trials as of the termination date . in addition , we exercised our right , pursuant to the license agreement , to obtain a non-exclusive , worldwide , royalty-bearing license , with the right to sublicense , under other intellectual property rights of debiopharm to develop , make , have made , use , sell , offer for sale , have sold and import cudc-305 , and debiopharm will transfer to us the ind application related to cudc-305 . debiopharm also assigned to us its sole patent application related to cudc-305 . further under the terms of the transition agreement , debiopharm will transition ongoing cudc-305 development and manufacturing activities to us and will make available all necessary information generated by or on behalf of debiopharm for us to pursue the manufacturing of cudc-305 . during the year ended december 31 , 2015 , we paid $ 0.8 million to debiopharm , primarily in consideration for debiopharm providing drug product . we have agreed to pay to debiopharm royalties at a rate of 3 % of net sales by us ( excluding sales by our third party sublicensees ) of products containing cudc-305 , and the following percentages of amounts that we receive from third party sublicensees : ( i ) 10 % of any royalties that we receive from third party sublicensees based on such sublicensees ' net sales of products containing cudc-305 ; and ( ii ) 20 % of any non-royalty sublicense payments that we receive from third party sublicensees , provided that the maximum aggregate amount payable by us to debiopharm with respect to non-royalty sublicense payments is $ 30.0 million . liquidity since our inception , we have funded our operations primarily through private and public placement of our equity securities , license fees , contingent cash payments , research and development funding from our corporate collaborators , debt financings and the monetization of certain royalty rights . we have never been profitable on an annual basis , and have an accumulated deficit of $ 898.9 million as of december 31 , 2016 . we will need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability , and do not expect to achieve profitability in the foreseeable future , if at all . we anticipate that our existing cash , cash equivalents and investments at december 31 , 2016 should enable us to maintain our planned operations into the second half of 2017. in order to ensure adequate cash resources for 12 months from the date of filing this annual report on form 10-k , we intend to ( i ) close on our committed debt refinancing with healthcare royalty and ( ii ) reduce or delay spending on our research and development programs and operating expenses to the extent we are unable to raise additional financing through our current $ 30 million at-the-market sale facility with cowen and company or other potential financing . however , additional funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms , if at all . if we are not successful in obtaining additional financing as planned , we will be required to reduce or delay spending on our research and development programs and operating expenses in the near term , which could adversely affect our financial condition , our ability to pursue our business strategies , our prospects and the value of our common stock . for a further discussion of our liquidity and funding requirements , see โ€œ liquidity and capital resources - funding requirements . โ€ key drivers we believe that near-term key drivers to our success will include : our ability to successfully plan , finance and complete current and planned clinical trials for our lead proprietary drug candidate , cudc-907 , as well as for such clinical trials to generate favorable data ; our ability to successfully advance ca-170 , and for us to finance and complete the current and planned clinical trials of this drug candidate ; 71 our and aurigene 's ability to complete preclinical development and ind-enabling studies for ca-4948 and ca-327 , and for us to then finance and complete planned phase 1 clinical trials for each of these development candidates ; aurigene 's ability to advance additional preclinical immuno-oncology , and precision oncology drug candidates , and our ability to license these programs from aurigene and further progress them clinically ; genentech and roche 's ability to successfully commercialize erivedge in advanced bcc in the united states and in other global territories ; and genentech and roche 's initiation and completion of additional clinical studies of erivedge , including in diseases other than bcc , such as ipf or mf . in the longer term , a key driver to our success will be our ability , and the ability of any current or future collaborator or licensee , to successfully develop and commercialize additional drug candidates . financial operations overview general . our future operating results will largely depend on the progress of drug candidates currently in our research and development pipeline . the results of our operations will vary significantly from year to year and quarter to quarter and depend on , among other factors , the cost and outcome of any preclinical development or clinical trials then being conducted . for

clinical development plans for our pipeline , in the near term we intend to predominantly focus our available resources on the continued development of cudc-907 , as well as ca-170 , ca-4948 and ca-327 in collaboration with aurigene . recent developments on march 6 , 2017 , we and curis royalty entered into a new credit agreement with healthcare royalty for the purpose of refinancing the current loan with biopharma-ii . on the effective date of the credit agreement , which is expected to occur on or before march 22 , 2017 , subject to certain conditions precedent specified in the credit agreement , the current loan with biopharma-ii would terminate in its entirety . pursuant to the credit agreement , healthcare royalty would make a $ 45.0 million loan at an interest rate of 9.95 % to curis royalty , which would be used to pay off the approximately $ 18.4 million in remaining loan obligations to biopharma-ii under the prior loan . the residual proceeds of the loan would be distributed to curis as sole equity member of curis royalty . the loan from healthcare royalty would be substantially similar to the loan with biopharma-ii , including that it would be repaid from certain royalty and royalty-related payments owed by genentech under the genentech collaboration agreement . in connection with the loan , curis royalty will grant a first priority lien and security interest ( excluding certain payments allocable to academic institutions ) in all of its assets and all real , intangible and personal property , including all of its right , title and interest in and to the erivedge royalty payments . the loan constitutes an obligation of curis royalty , and is intended to be non-recourse to curis , except that ( i ) curis has agreed , as a post-closing matter , to use reasonable best efforts to obtain genentech 's consent to a pledge of curis ' equity interest in curis royalty and ( ii ) under certain circumstances arising from the breach of certain covenants and representations , healthcare royalty may proceed directly against curis . the closing of the new loan with healthcare royalty is subject to certain conditions precedent specified in the credit agreement , including the parties having received payoff and termination documentation from biopharma-ii . for a further discussion of the loan with healthcare royalty , please refer to โ€œ part ii , item 9b . other information - royalty financing transaction . โ€ our collaborations and license agreements our current collaborations and license agreements are summarized as follows : aurigene collaboration agreement collaboration overview . on january 18 , 2015 , we entered into an exclusive collaboration agreement with aurigene for the discovery , development and commercialization of small molecule compounds in the areas of immuno-oncology and selected precision oncology targets . under the collaboration agreement , aurigene granted us an option to obtain exclusive , royalty-bearing licenses to relevant aurigene technology to develop , manufacture and commercialize products containing certain of such compounds . for each program , aurigene has granted us an exclusive option , exercisable within 90 days after aurigene delivers the relevant data regarding a development candidate , to obtain an exclusive , royalty-bearing license to develop , manufacture and commercialize compounds from such program , including the development candidate and products containing such compounds , anywhere in the world with the exception of india and russia . upon our exercise of the option for a particular program , aurigene will grant us the royalty-bearing license described above for each licensed program , and we will grant aurigene an exclusive , royalty-free , fully paid license under our relevant technology to develop , manufacture and commercialize compounds from such program and products containing such compounds in india and russia . there are currently multiple licensed programs under this collaboration , including two programs targeting immune checkpoint regulators and one program targeting the irak4 kinase . in october 2015 , we exercised options to license the first two programs under this collaboration . the first licensed program is focused on the development of orally-available small molecule antagonists of the pd1 and vista pathway in the immuno-oncology field , including development candidate designated ca-170 , which is a pdl2/vista antagonist . the second licensed program is focused on orally-available small molecule inhibitors of irak4 in the precision oncology field , with the lead development candidate designated ca-4948 . in addition , in october 2015 , we selected a third program for further development under the collaboration , the second preclinical program within the immuno-oncology field , which is focused on evaluating small molecule antagonists with pd1 and tim3 immune checkpoint pathways , including compounds that target pdl1 and tim3 . in october 2016 , we exercised our option to license this third program and designated ca-327 as the development candidate . for each program we license , we are obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop , obtain regulatory approval for , and commercialize at least one product in each of the u.s. , specified countries in the european union , and japan , and aurigene is obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations under the development plan for such licensed program in an expeditious manner . subject to specified exceptions , we and aurigene have agreed to collaborate exclusively with each other on the discovery , research , development and commercialization of programs and compounds within immuno-oncology for an initial period of 67 approximately two years from the effective date of the collaboration agreement . at our option , and subject to specified conditions , we may extend such exclusivity for up to three additional one-year periods by paying to aurigene exclusivity option fees on an annual basis . story_separator_special_tag the termination of the august 2009 agreement was effective as of february 2015. we have re-designated the molecule cudc-305 . under the terms of the transition agreement , the licenses and all other rights related to cudc-305 have been terminated and reverted to us effective as of the termination date . debiopharm ceased enrollment in all clinical trials as of the termination date . in addition , we exercised our right , pursuant to the license agreement , to obtain a non-exclusive , worldwide , royalty-bearing license , with the right to sublicense , under other intellectual property rights of debiopharm to develop , make , have made , use , sell , offer for sale , have sold and import cudc-305 , and debiopharm will transfer to us the ind application related to cudc-305 . debiopharm also assigned to us its sole patent application related to cudc-305 . further under the terms of the transition agreement , debiopharm will transition ongoing cudc-305 development and manufacturing activities to us and will make available all necessary information generated by or on behalf of debiopharm for us to pursue the manufacturing of cudc-305 . during the year ended december 31 , 2015 , we paid $ 0.8 million to debiopharm , primarily in consideration for debiopharm providing drug product . we have agreed to pay to debiopharm royalties at a rate of 3 % of net sales by us ( excluding sales by our third party sublicensees ) of products containing cudc-305 , and the following percentages of amounts that we receive from third party sublicensees : ( i ) 10 % of any royalties that we receive from third party sublicensees based on such sublicensees ' net sales of products containing cudc-305 ; and ( ii ) 20 % of any non-royalty sublicense payments that we receive from third party sublicensees , provided that the maximum aggregate amount payable by us to debiopharm with respect to non-royalty sublicense payments is $ 30.0 million . liquidity since our inception , we have funded our operations primarily through private and public placement of our equity securities , license fees , contingent cash payments , research and development funding from our corporate collaborators , debt financings and the monetization of certain royalty rights . we have never been profitable on an annual basis , and have an accumulated deficit of $ 898.9 million as of december 31 , 2016 . we will need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability , and do not expect to achieve profitability in the foreseeable future , if at all . we anticipate that our existing cash , cash equivalents and investments at december 31 , 2016 should enable us to maintain our planned operations into the second half of 2017. in order to ensure adequate cash resources for 12 months from the date of filing this annual report on form 10-k , we intend to ( i ) close on our committed debt refinancing with healthcare royalty and ( ii ) reduce or delay spending on our research and development programs and operating expenses to the extent we are unable to raise additional financing through our current $ 30 million at-the-market sale facility with cowen and company or other potential financing . however , additional funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms , if at all . if we are not successful in obtaining additional financing as planned , we will be required to reduce or delay spending on our research and development programs and operating expenses in the near term , which could adversely affect our financial condition , our ability to pursue our business strategies , our prospects and the value of our common stock . for a further discussion of our liquidity and funding requirements , see โ€œ liquidity and capital resources - funding requirements . โ€ key drivers we believe that near-term key drivers to our success will include : our ability to successfully plan , finance and complete current and planned clinical trials for our lead proprietary drug candidate , cudc-907 , as well as for such clinical trials to generate favorable data ; our ability to successfully advance ca-170 , and for us to finance and complete the current and planned clinical trials of this drug candidate ; 71 our and aurigene 's ability to complete preclinical development and ind-enabling studies for ca-4948 and ca-327 , and for us to then finance and complete planned phase 1 clinical trials for each of these development candidates ; aurigene 's ability to advance additional preclinical immuno-oncology , and precision oncology drug candidates , and our ability to license these programs from aurigene and further progress them clinically ; genentech and roche 's ability to successfully commercialize erivedge in advanced bcc in the united states and in other global territories ; and genentech and roche 's initiation and completion of additional clinical studies of erivedge , including in diseases other than bcc , such as ipf or mf . in the longer term , a key driver to our success will be our ability , and the ability of any current or future collaborator or licensee , to successfully develop and commercialize additional drug candidates . financial operations overview general . our future operating results will largely depend on the progress of drug candidates currently in our research and development pipeline . the results of our operations will vary significantly from year to year and quarter to quarter and depend on , among other factors , the cost and outcome of any preclinical development or clinical trials then being conducted . for a discussion of our liquidity and funding requirements , see โ€œ - liquidity and capital resources - funding requirements . โ€ debt . in december 2012 , our wholly-owned subsidiary , curis royalty , entered into a $ 30 million debt transaction with biopharma-ii , at an annual interest rate of 12.25 % collateralized with certain future erivedge royalty

net loan recoveries of $ 61,000 in 2018 allowed choiceone to take a minimal provision for loan losses , compared to net charge-offs of $ 185,000 in 2017 which necessitated a provision expense of $ 485,000. a decline in noninterest income of $ 891,000 in 2018 compared to 2017 was primarily due to a nonrecurring gain of $ 908,000 on the sale of a portion of choiceone 's investment book of business that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2017. the increase of $ 1,127,000 in noninterest expense in 2018 compared to the prior year was primarily caused by higher salaries and benefits expense and other noninterest expense . dividends cash dividends of $ 5,806,000 or $ 1.40 per common share were declared in 2019 , compared to $ 2,572,000 or $ 0.71 per common share in 2018 and $ 2,317,000 or $ 0.64 per common share in 2017. dividends in 2019 included a special dividend of $ 0.60 per share paid on september 30 , 2019 in connection with the merger with county . the dividend yield on choiceone 's common stock was 4.38 % as of the end of 2019 , compared to 2.84 % in 2018 , and 2.86 % in 2017. the cash dividend payout as a percentage of net income was 81 % in 2019 , compared to 35 % in 2018 and 38 % in 2017. in addition , a 5 % stock dividend was paid on may 31 , 2018 , which caused $ 4,335,000 to be transferred from retained earnings to paid-in capital . a 5 % stock dividend was also paid on may 31 , 2017 and produced a transfer of $ 3,779,000 from retained earnings to paid-in capital . page | 23 table 1 โ€“ average balances and tax-equivalent interest rates replace_table_token_21_th ( 1 ) interest on nontaxable securities and loans has been adjusted to a fully tax-equivalent basis to facilitate comparison to the taxable interest-earning assets . the adjustment uses an incremental tax rate of 21 % for 2019 and 2018 and 34 % for 2017 . ( 2 ) interest on loans included net origination fees charged on loans of approximately $ 866,000 , $ 1,087,000 , and $ 1,003,000 in 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 , respectively . ( 3 ) interest on taxable securities includes dividends on federal home loan bank and federal reserve bank stock . ( 4 ) noninterest-earning assets include loans in nonaccrual status , which averaged approximately $ 2,965,000 , $ 1,266,000 , and $ 1,486,000 in 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 , respectively . page | 24 table 2 โ€“ changes in tax-equivalent net interest income replace_table_token_22_th ( 1 ) the volume variance is computed as the change in volume ( average balance ) multiplied by the previous year 's interest rate . the rate variance is computed as the change in interest rate multiplied by the previous year 's volume ( average balance ) . the change in interest due to both volume and rate has been allocated to the volume and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each . ( 2 ) interest on tax-exempt securities and loans has been adjusted to a fully tax-equivalent basis using an incremental tax rate of 21 % for 2019 and 2018 , and 34 % for 2017. net interest income the presentation of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis is not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ( โ€œ gaap โ€ ) , but is customary in the banking industry . this non-gaap measure ensures comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt loans and investment securities . the adjustments to determine net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis were $ 408,000 , $ 398,000 and $ 548,000 for the years ended 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively . these adjustments were computed using a 21 % federal income tax rate in 2019 and 2018 , and 34 % federal income tax rate in 2017. tax-equivalent net interest income increased $ 5,719,000 in 2019 compared to 2018. the increase was attributed to an increase of $ 177.7 million in average interest-earning assets , partially offset by the impact of a decline of 21 basis points in choiceone 's net interest spread . the reduction in the net interest spread resulted from an increase of 26 basis points in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities , while the average rate earned on interest-earning assets increased 5 basis points . the average balance of loans increased $ 130.2 million in 2019 compared to 2018 , $ 105.8 million of which was due to lakestone loans which were included in the fourth quarter of 2019. the remaining growth was primarily from residential real estate loans , whose average balance increased $ 22.6 million in 2019 compared to 2018. in addition to the average balance growth , the average rate earned on loans increased 6 basis points in 2019 compared to 2018 as a result of higher general market interest rates and higher rates charged on new loan originations . tax-equivalent interest income on loans increased $ 6.8 million in 2019 compared to the prior year . the average balance of total securities grew $ 40.0 million in 2019 compared to the prior year . the inclusion of lakestone securities in the fourth quarter of 2019 caused an average balance increase of $ 45.0 million , while the average balance of choiceone bank securities was $ 5.0 million lower in 2019 than in 2018. the average balance growth and a minimal change in the average rate earned on securities caused interest income from securities to grow $ 1.1 million in 2019 compared to the prior year . story_separator_special_tag the loans are short-term in nature and are designed to provide funding for the time period between the loan origination and its subsequent sale in the secondary market . the balance of the lines of credit held by the banks was $ 51.0 million as of december 31 , 2019 and choiceone bank held $ 20.6 million as of december 31 , 2018. information regarding impaired loans can be found in note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included in this report . in addition to its review of the loan portfolio for impaired loans , management also monitors various nonperforming loans . nonperforming loans are comprised of ( 1 ) loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis ; ( 2 ) loans , not included in nonaccrual loans , which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal payments ; and ( 3 ) loans , not included in nonaccrual or past due 90 days or more , which are considered troubled debt restructurings . troubled debt restructurings consist of loans where the terms have been modified to assist the borrowers in making their payments . the modifications can include capitalization of interest onto the principal balance , reduction in interest rate , and extension of the loan term . the balances of these nonperforming loans as of december 31 were as follows : replace_table_token_27_th nonaccrual loans included $ 379,000 in agricultural loans , $ 776,000 in commercial and industrial loans , $ 16,000 in consumer loans , $ 2,185,000 in commercial real estate loans , and $ 1,331,000 in residential real estate loans as of december 31 , 2019. nonaccrual loans included $ 393,000 in agricultural loans , $ 62,000 in consumer loans , $ 123,000 in commercial real estate loans , and $ 954,000 in residential real estate loans as of december 31 , 2018. the primary reason for the increase in nonaccrual loans in 2019 was the movement of one large commercial relationship into nonaccrual status during the year . loans considered troubled debt restructurings which were not on a nonaccrual basis and were not 90 days or more past due as to principal or interest payments consisted of $ 391,000 in commercial real estate loans and $ 1,335,000 in residential real estate loans at december 31 , 2019 , compared to $ 19,000 in commercial and industrial loans , $ 14,000 in consumer loans , $ 500,000 in commercial real estate loans , and $ 1,721,000 in residential real estate loans at december 31 , 2018. management also maintains a list of loans that are not classified as nonperforming loans but where some concern exists as to the borrowers ' abilities to comply with the original loan terms . these loans totaled $ 14.0 million as of december 31 , 2019 , compared to $ 1.8 million as of december 31 , 2018. page | 30 deposits and other funding sources the company 's deposit balances as of december 31 were as follows : replace_table_token_28_th total deposits increased $ 577.6 million from december 31 , 2018 to december 31 , 2019 , of which $ 573.6 million was obtained from the merger with county . excluding deposits related to lakestone , noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand deposits grew a total of $ 11.2 million as the banks ' depositors valued the liquidity available in this deposit category . higher rates paid on local certificates of deposit in 2019 compared to 2018 as a result of rising general market interest rates helped to generate depositor interest in this category and contributed to the $ 18.3 million of growth during 2019 excluding lakestone deposits . brokered certificates of deposit decreased $ 32.1 million in 2019 as organic loan growth was minimal . federal funds purchased declined $ 4.8 million from december 31 , 2018 to december 31 , 2019 as overnight funding was replaced by local deposits growth . federal home loan bank advances increased $ 28.0 million in 2019 as advances were used to meet short term funding needs . choiceone bank 's blanket collateral agreement covering agricultural real estate loans and residential real estate loans and lakestone 's blanket collateral agreement covering commercial real estate loans and residential real estate loans were pledged against each bank 's outstanding advances at the end of 2019. approximately $ 78.6 million of additional advances were available as of december 31 , 2019 based on the collateral pledged by the banks . in 2020 , management will continue to focus its marketing efforts toward growth in local deposits . if local deposit growth is insufficient to support asset growth , management believes that advances from the fhlb and brokered certificates of deposit can address corresponding funding needs . shareholders ' equity total shareholders ' equity increased $ 111.7 million from december 31 , 2018 to december 31 , 2019. the merger with county caused $ 107.9 million of equity to be issued in consideration for county 's stock . the remaining growth in equity resulted from the retention of earnings in 2019 as net income exceeded dividends paid by $ 1.4 million . accumulated other comprehensive income increased by $ 2.2 million in 2019 principally as a result of available for sale securities moving from a net unrealized loss at the end of 2018 to a net unrealized gain as of the end of 2019. equity issuances net of shares repurchased also contributed $ 448,000 to equity during 2019. note 20 to the consolidated financial statements presents regulatory capital information for choiceone and the banks at the end of 2019 and choiceone and choiceone bank at the end of 2018. management will monitor these capital ratios during 2020 as they relate to asset growth and earnings retention . choiceone 's board of directors and management do not plan to allow capital to decrease below those levels necessary to be considered โ€œ well capitalized โ€ by regulatory guidelines . at december 31 , 2019 , the
liquidity and interest rate risk net cash from operating activities was $ 9.2 million in 2019 compared to $ 10.0 million in 2018. net cash from investing activities was $ 36.4 million in 2019 compared to $ 43.9 million used in 2018. the increase was caused by higher net proceeds from sales of securities in 2019 compared to 2018 , limited net growth in loans in 2019 outside of lakestone loans added compared to more significant growth in 2018 , and cash received as a result of the merger with county . net cash flows from financing activities were a negative $ 5.7 million in 2019 compared to a positive $ 16.8 million in 2018. the change was caused by less growth in deposits in 2019 outside of lakestone deposits than the prior year and a decline in the balance of federal funds purchased in 2019 in contrast with an increase in 2018. this was partially offset by net proceeds from federal home loan bank advances in 2019 compared to net paydowns in 2018. choiceone 's primary market risk exposure occurs in the form of interest rate risk . liquidity risk also can have an impact but to a lesser extent . choiceone 's business is transacted in u.s. dollars with no foreign exchange risk exposure . agricultural loans comprise a relatively small portion of choiceone 's total assets . management believes that choiceone 's exposure to changes in commodity prices is insignificant . management believes that the current level of liquidity is sufficient to meet the banks ' normal operating needs . this belief is based upon the availability of deposits from both the local and national markets , maturities of securities , normal loan repayments , income retention , federal funds purchased lines of credit from correspondent banks , and advances available from the fhlb .

( 4 ) noninterest-earning assets include loans in nonaccrual status , which averaged approximately $ 2,965,000 , $ 1,266,000 , and $ 1,486,000 in 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 , respectively . page | 24 table 2 โ€“ changes in tax-equivalent net interest income replace_table_token_22_th ( 1 ) the volume variance is computed as the change in volume ( average balance ) multiplied by the previous year 's interest rate . the rate variance is computed as the change in interest rate multiplied by the previous year 's volume ( average balance ) . the change in interest due to both volume and rate has been allocated to the volume and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each . ( 2 ) interest on tax-exempt securities and loans has been adjusted to a fully tax-equivalent basis using an incremental tax rate of 21 % for 2019 and 2018 , and 34 % for 2017. net interest income the presentation of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis is not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ( โ€œ gaap โ€ ) , but is customary in the banking industry . this non-gaap measure ensures comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt loans and investment securities . the adjustments to determine net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis were $ 408,000 , $ 398,000 and $ 548,000 for the years ended 2019 , 2018 and 2017 , respectively . these adjustments were computed using a 21 % federal income tax rate in 2019 and 2018 , and 34 % federal income tax rate in 2017. tax-equivalent net interest income increased $ 5,719,000 in 2019 compared to 2018. the increase was attributed to an increase of $ 177.7 million in average interest-earning assets , partially offset by the impact of a decline of 21 basis points in choiceone 's net interest spread . the reduction in the net interest spread resulted from an increase of 26 basis points in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities , while the average rate earned on interest-earning assets increased 5 basis points . the average balance of loans increased $ 130.2 million in 2019 compared to 2018 , $ 105.8 million of which was due to lakestone loans which were included in the fourth quarter of 2019. the remaining growth was primarily from residential real estate loans , whose average balance increased $ 22.6 million in 2019 compared to 2018. in addition to the average balance growth , the average rate earned on loans increased 6 basis points in 2019 compared to 2018 as a result of higher general market interest rates and higher rates charged on new loan originations . tax-equivalent interest income on loans increased $ 6.8 million in 2019 compared to the prior year . the average balance of total securities grew $ 40.0 million in 2019 compared to the prior year . the inclusion of lakestone securities in the fourth quarter of 2019 caused an average balance increase of $ 45.0 million , while the average balance of choiceone bank securities was $ 5.0 million lower in 2019 than in 2018. the average balance growth and a minimal change in the average rate earned on securities caused interest income from securities to grow $ 1.1 million in 2019 compared to the prior year . story_separator_special_tag the loans are short-term in nature and are designed to provide funding for the time period between the loan origination and its subsequent sale in the secondary market . the balance of the lines of credit held by the banks was $ 51.0 million as of december 31 , 2019 and choiceone bank held $ 20.6 million as of december 31 , 2018. information regarding impaired loans can be found in note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included in this report . in addition to its review of the loan portfolio for impaired loans , management also monitors various nonperforming loans . nonperforming loans are comprised of ( 1 ) loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis ; ( 2 ) loans , not included in nonaccrual loans , which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal payments ; and ( 3 ) loans , not included in nonaccrual or past due 90 days or more , which are considered troubled debt restructurings . troubled debt restructurings consist of loans where the terms have been modified to assist the borrowers in making their payments . the modifications can include capitalization of interest onto the principal balance , reduction in interest rate , and extension of the loan term . the balances of these nonperforming loans as of december 31 were as follows : replace_table_token_27_th nonaccrual loans included $ 379,000 in agricultural loans , $ 776,000 in commercial and industrial loans , $ 16,000 in consumer loans , $ 2,185,000 in commercial real estate loans , and $ 1,331,000 in residential real estate loans as of december 31 , 2019. nonaccrual loans included $ 393,000 in agricultural loans , $ 62,000 in consumer loans , $ 123,000 in commercial real estate loans , and $ 954,000 in residential real estate loans as of december 31 , 2018. the primary reason for the increase in nonaccrual loans in 2019 was the movement of one large commercial relationship into nonaccrual status during the year . loans considered troubled debt restructurings which were not on a nonaccrual basis and were not 90 days or more past due as to principal or interest payments consisted of $ 391,000 in commercial real estate loans and $ 1,335,000 in residential real estate loans at december 31 , 2019 , compared to $ 19,000 in commercial and industrial loans , $ 14,000 in consumer loans , $ 500,000 in commercial real estate loans , and $ 1,721,000 in residential real estate loans at december 31 , 2018. management also maintains a list of loans that are not classified as nonperforming loans but where some concern exists as to the borrowers ' abilities to comply with the original loan terms . these loans totaled $ 14.0 million as of december 31 , 2019 , compared to $ 1.8 million as of december 31 , 2018. page | 30 deposits and other funding sources the company 's deposit balances as of december 31 were as follows : replace_table_token_28_th total deposits increased $ 577.6 million from december 31 , 2018 to december 31 , 2019 , of which $ 573.6 million was obtained from the merger with county . excluding deposits related to lakestone , noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand deposits grew a total of $ 11.2 million as the banks ' depositors valued the liquidity available in this deposit category . higher rates paid on local certificates of deposit in 2019 compared to 2018 as a result of rising general market interest rates helped to generate depositor interest in this category and contributed to the $ 18.3 million of growth during 2019 excluding lakestone deposits . brokered certificates of deposit decreased $ 32.1 million in 2019 as organic loan growth was minimal . federal funds purchased declined $ 4.8 million from december 31 , 2018 to december 31 , 2019 as overnight funding was replaced by local deposits growth . federal home loan bank advances increased $ 28.0 million in 2019 as advances were used to meet short term funding needs . choiceone bank 's blanket collateral agreement covering agricultural real estate loans and residential real estate loans and lakestone 's blanket collateral agreement covering commercial real estate loans and residential real estate loans were pledged against each bank 's outstanding advances at the end of 2019. approximately $ 78.6 million of additional advances were available as of december 31 , 2019 based on the collateral pledged by the banks . in 2020 , management will continue to focus its marketing efforts toward growth in local deposits . if local deposit growth is insufficient to support asset growth , management believes that advances from the fhlb and brokered certificates of deposit can address corresponding funding needs . shareholders ' equity total shareholders ' equity increased $ 111.7 million from december 31 , 2018 to december 31 , 2019. the merger with county caused $ 107.9 million of equity to be issued in consideration for county 's stock . the remaining growth in equity resulted from the retention of earnings in 2019 as net income exceeded dividends paid by $ 1.4 million . accumulated other comprehensive income increased by $ 2.2 million in 2019 principally as a result of available for sale securities moving from a net unrealized loss at the end of 2018 to a net unrealized gain as of the end of 2019. equity issuances net of shares repurchased also contributed $ 448,000 to equity during 2019. note 20 to the consolidated financial statements presents regulatory capital information for choiceone and the banks at the end of 2019 and choiceone and choiceone bank at the end of 2018. management will monitor these capital ratios during 2020 as they relate to asset growth and earnings retention . choiceone 's board of directors and management do not plan to allow capital to decrease below those levels necessary to be considered โ€œ well capitalized โ€ by regulatory guidelines . at december 31 , 2019 , the

the addition of our princeton rail loop , expected to come online in the spring of 2018 , will also provide us new access to coal markets served by the norfolk southern railway company . for 2017 , over 67 % of our coal sales were to customers with large scrubbed coal-fired power plants in the state of indiana . our mines and coal reserves are strategically located in close proximity to our primary customers , which reduces transportation costs and thus provides us with a competitive advantage with respect to those customers ; our closest customer 's plant is 13 miles away , and the farthest indiana customer is 80 miles away . we have access to our primary customers directly through either the csx railroad ( nyse : csx ) or the indiana rail road which is majority owned by the csx . beginning in q2 2018 , our new princeton loop will be operational and allow us to access the ns railroad ( nyse : ns ) , increasing our coal markets . the majority of our coal is sold to investment grade customers who have scrubbed power plants ; thus , we expect to be supplying these plants for many years . president trump promotes coal below is a timeline of some of the milestones accomplished for the coal industry thus far under the trump administration : november 8 , 2016 donald trump was elected president of the united states of america . his administration has dramatically improved the regulatory environment in which we operate . january 20 , 2017 donald trump was inaugurated as the 45 th president of the united states . february 15 , 2017 both the u.s. house of representatives and the senate passed resolutions disapproving the stream protection rule ( spr ) under the congressional review act ( cra ) . president trump signed the resolution on february 16 , 2017 , and , pursuant to the cra , the spr `` shall have no force or effect `` and the office of surface mining ( osm ) can not promulgate a substantially similar rule absent future legislation . 30 currently , the federal surface mining control and reclamation act of 1977 ( smcra ) is implemented by each state 's respective state agency , which is the department of reclamation in indiana . the spr would have mandated additional approvals from federal agencies , such as u.s. fish and wildlife . the rule would have also imposed additional baseline data collection , surface/groundwater monitoring , financial assurance requirements and numerous other requirements . february 17 , 2017 scott pruitt was confirmed as administrator of the environmental protection agency ( epa ) . as former attorney general of the state of oklahoma , he joined a coalition of state attorney generals in suing the epa concerning the clean power plan , the principal obama-era policy aimed at reducing u.s. greenhouse gas emissions from the electricity sector . february 28 , 2017 president trump signed an executive order regarding the โ€œ waters of the us โ€ ( wotus ) rule . the order requires the epa and the army corps of engineers to review the wotus rule and publish a proposed rule that rescinds or revises the rule as appropriate and consistent with law , keeps the nation 's navigable waters free from pollution , promotes economic growth , minimizes regulatory uncertainty , and shows due regard for the roles of the congress and the states under the constitution . in president trump 's first full official speech to a joint session of congress , he stated : โ€œ we 're going to stop the regulations that threaten the future and livelihood of our great coal miners . โ€ march 28 , 2017 president trump signed an executive order to dismantle many of the climate change policies enacted during the obama era . the order takes steps to downplay the future costs of carbon emissions , walks back tracking of the federal government 's carbon emissions , rescinds a 2016 moratorium on coal leases on federal lands . it also begins the process of rescinding the epa 's clean power plan to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from new and existing power plants . april 13 , 2017 the epa said it would review and reconsider the effluent limitations guidelines ( elg ) rule which targets coal combustion generators ' ash transport wastewater , and wastewater discharges from flue-gas desulfurization and mercury control systems and would require power plants to install new treatment technologies . the rule has been challenged in court by a coalition of utilities . the epa has issued an administrative stay to delay the compliance deadlines for the elg rule as long as litigation is ongoing . june 1 , 2017 president trump announced that the u.s. would pull out of the paris agreement steering away from a group of 194 other countries that have promised to curb planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions . october 10 , 2017 epa administrator scott pruitt announced that the epa would seek to repeal the clean power plan in its entirety . january 25 , 2018 the trump administration eliminated a policy dictating how certain major sources of hazardous air pollutants are regulated . the repeal of the agency 's โ€œ once in , always in โ€ policy . under the new interpretation of the policy , โ€œ major sources โ€ can be reclassed as โ€œ area sources , โ€ which are subject to different standards when their emissions reach an enforceable limit . these actions are encouraging and will be important to us and the u.s. energy sector . story_separator_special_tag the carlisle mine is completely developed but was idle for the entirety of 2017. ace in the hole mine ( ace ) ( surface ) โ€“ assigned the ace mine is near clay city , indiana in clay county and 42 road miles northeast of the carlisle mine . we control .9 million tons of proven coal reserves of which we own .5 million tons in fee . the two primary seams are low sulfur coal ( ~2 # so 2 ) , which make up .8 million of the .9 million tons controlled . mine development began in late december 2012 , and we began shipping coal in late august 2013. we truck low sulfur coal from ace to oaktown to blend with high sulfur coal . many utilities in the southeastern u.s. have scrubbers with lower sulfur limits ( 4.5 # so 2 ) which can not accept the higher sulfur contents of the ilb ( 4.5 # - 6.5 # so 2 ) . blending high sulfur coal to a lower sulfur specification enables us to market our high sulfur coals to more customers . we expect the maximum capacity of ace to be 0.4 tons annually . the ace mine is a multi-seam open pit strip mine . the majority of the seams are sold raw , but some of the seams will be washed prior to sales depending on quality . to convert the tons sold raw , the in-place tonnage is multiplied by a pit recovery of 94 % based on seam thickness . to convert the tons sold washed , the in-place tonnage is multiplied by a pit recovery based on seam thickness then reduced by the projected wash plant recovery of 72 % . bulldog reserves ( underground ) โ€“ unassigned we have leased roughly 19,300 acres in vermilion county , illinois near the village of allerton . based on our reserve estimates we currently control 35.8 million tons of coal . a considerable amount of our leased acres has yet to receive any exploratory drilling . in october 2017 , we entered into an agreement to sell land associated with the bulldog mine for $ 4.9 million . as part of the transaction , we will hold the rights to repurchase the property for eight years . also in october 2017 , the illinois department of natural resources ( ildnr ) notified us that our mine application , along with modifications , was acceptable . the permit will be issued upon submittal of a fee and bond which is required to be submitted within 12 months of the notification . full-scale mine development will not commence until we have a sales commitment . we estimate the costs to develop this mine to be $ 150 million at full capacity of 3.0 million tons annually . unassigned reserves represent coal reserves that would require new mineshafts , mining equipment , and plant facilities before operations could begin on the property . the primary reason for this distinction is to inform investors which coal reserves will require substantial capital expenditures before production can begin . 33 below is a map that shows the locations of our mines . railroad legend : csx โ€“ csx railroad inrd โ€“ indiana rail road isrr โ€“

, 2018. because asc 740-10-25-47 requires the effect of a change in tax laws or rates to be recognized as of the date of enactment , we are required to adjust deferred tax assets and liabilities as of december 22 , 2017. accordingly , we have recorded a deferred income tax benefit of $ 16.4 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017. our effective tax rate ( etr ) for 2017 was ( 138 ) % compared to ( 48 ) % for 2016 and 27 % for 2015. the negative etr in 2017 is due primarily to the effects of the tax act adjustment to our deferred taxes and prior year tax return reconciliation which were all recorded discretely for the year ended december 31 , 2017. the negative etr in 2016 is due to the combination of the reduction in book income before taxes because of the asset impairment expense , permanent tax benefits of statutory depletion in excess of tax basis in the mining properties , the captive insurance company effects , and stock based compensation expense . the tax rate for the years ended december 31 , 2017 and 2016 are not predictive of future tax rates due to the deferred income tax benefit of the tax act . the tax rate would have been 9 % without the effects of the deferred income tax benefit of the tax act and the prior year tax return reconciliation . historically , our actual effective tax rates have been lower than the statutory effective rate primarily due to the benefit received from statutory depletion allowances . the deduction for statutory depletion does not necessarily change proportionately to changes in income before income taxes . critical accounting estimates we believe that the estimates of our coal reserves , our business acquisitions , our interest rate swaps , our deferred tax accounts , and the estimates used in our impairment analysis are our only critical accounting estimates . the reserve estimates are used in the dd & a calculation and in our internal cash flow projections . if these estimates turn out to be materially

to ( 48 ) % for 2016 and 27 % for 2015. the negative etr in 2017 is due primarily to the effects of the tax act adjustment to our deferred taxes and prior year tax return reconciliation which were all recorded discretely for the year ended december 31 , 2017. the negative etr in 2016 is due to the combination of the reduction in book income before taxes because of the asset impairment expense , permanent tax benefits of statutory depletion in excess of tax basis in the mining properties , the captive insurance company effects , and stock based compensation expense . the tax rate for the years ended december 31 , 2017 and 2016 are not predictive of future tax rates due to the deferred income tax benefit of the tax act . the tax rate would have been 9 % without the effects of the deferred income tax benefit of the tax act and the prior year tax return reconciliation . historically , our actual effective tax rates have been lower than the statutory effective rate primarily due to the benefit received from statutory depletion allowances . the deduction for statutory depletion does not necessarily change proportionately to changes in income before income taxes . critical accounting estimates we believe that the estimates of our coal reserves , our business acquisitions , our interest rate swaps , our deferred tax accounts , and the estimates used in our impairment analysis are our only critical accounting estimates . the reserve estimates are used in the dd & a calculation and in our internal cash flow projections . if these estimates turn out to be materially under or over-stated , our dd & a expense and impairment test may be affected . we account for business combinations using the purchase method of accounting

hybrid cloud computing our overarching cloud strategy contains three key components : ( i ) continue to expand beyond compute virtualization in the private cloud , ( ii ) extend the private cloud into the public cloud and ( iii ) connect and secure endpoints across a range of public clouds . during fiscal 2018 , hybrid cloud computing was comprised of vmware cloud provider program ( โ€œ vcpp โ€ ) ( previously referred to as vmware vcloud air network ) and vmware cloud services , which enable customers to run , manage , connect and secure their applications across private and public clouds , including amazon web services ( โ€œ aws โ€ ) , azure , google cloud platform and ibm cloud . during fiscal 2018 , revenue growth in our hybrid cloud computing offerings was primarily driven by our vcpp offerings . vmware cloud on aws is currently available in certain geographies , and we expect to continue expanding into additional regions in fiscal 2019. during the second quarter of fiscal 2018 , we completed the sale of our vcloud air business ( โ€œ vcloud air โ€ ) to ovh us llc ( โ€œ ovh โ€ ) . end-user computing our euc solution consists of vmware workspace one ( โ€œ workspace one โ€ ) , our digital workspace platform , which includes vmware airwatch ( โ€œ airwatch โ€ ) and vmware horizon . our airwatch business model includes an on-premises solution that we offer through the sale of perpetual licenses and an off-premises solution that we offer as software-as-a-service ( โ€œ saas โ€ ) . workspace one continued to be our primary growth driver within our euc product group during fiscal 2018 . 37 dell synergies during fiscal 2018 , we continued joint marketing , sales , branding and product development efforts with dell technologies inc. ( โ€œ dell โ€ ) and other dell technologies companies to enhance the collective value we deliver to our mutual customers . as a result of our collective business built with dell , we have experienced significant synergies benefiting our sales during fiscal 2018. change in fiscal year end as a result of the change to our fiscal year from a fiscal year ending on december 31 of each calendar year to a fiscal year ending on the friday nearest to january 31 of each year , the period that began on january 1 , 2017 and ended on february 3 , 2017 was a transition period ( the โ€œ transition period โ€ ) . our first full fiscal year 2018 is a 52-week year that began on february 4 , 2017 and ended on february 2 , 2018. prior-period financial statements have not been recast as we believe ( i ) the year ended december 31 , 2016 is comparable to the year ended february 2 , 2018 and ( ii ) recasting prior-period results was not practicable or cost justified . we have included audited consolidated financial statements for the transition period in part ii , item 8 of this annual report on form 10-k. results of operations approximately 70 % of our sales are denominated in the united states ( โ€œ u.s. โ€ ) dollar , however , in certain countries we also invoice and collect in the following currencies : euro ; british pound ; japanese yen ; australian dollar ; and chinese renminbi . in addition , we incur and pay operating expenses in currencies other than the u.s. dollar . as a result , our financial statements , including our revenue , operating expenses , unearned revenue and the resulting cash flows derived from the u.s. dollar equivalent of foreign currency transactions , are affected by foreign exchange fluctuations . revenue our revenue during the periods presented was as follows ( dollars in millions ) : replace_table_token_6_th revenue from our hybrid cloud computing offerings consisted primarily of vcpp , and revenue from our saas offerings consisted primarily of our airwatch mobile solution within workspace one . vcpp revenue is included in license revenue and saas revenue is included in both license and services revenue . hybrid cloud computing , together with our saas offerings , accounted for approximately 8 % of our total revenue during fiscal years 2018 and 2016. license revenue relating to the sale of perpetual licenses that are part of a multi-year arrangement is generally recognized upon delivery of the underlying license , whereas revenue derived from our hybrid cloud computing and saas offerings is recognized on a consumption basis or over a period of time . license revenue during fiscal 2018 , license revenue benefited from broad-based growth across our diverse portfolio and solid performance in all geographies . drivers of license revenue growth during fiscal 2018 compared to fiscal 2016 included continued scale and 38 growth of our nsx and vsan offerings . euc growth driven in part by sales of workspace one and continued strength of our vcpp offerings were also key factors contributing to license growth . strength in our renewal business , including eas , also contributed to license revenue growth during fiscal 2018 compared to fiscal 2016 . license revenue growth in fiscal 2016 compared to fiscal 2015 was largely driven by license sales of nsx , vsan and airwatch mobile solutions , as well as growth in our vcpp offering . we experienced stronger than expected sales of our compute products , in part due to strong renewals of our eas , which also contributed to the license revenue growth in fiscal 2016 compared to fiscal 2015 . services revenue during fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2016 , software maintenance revenue benefited from strong renewals of our eas , maintenance contracts sold in previous periods and additional maintenance contracts sold in conjunction with new software license sales . story_separator_special_tag key components of the tax expense relating to the 2017 tax act included provisional estimates for the mandatory one-time transition tax on accumulated earnings of foreign subsidiaries of approximately $ 800 million , and the remeasurement of our deferred tax assets and liabilities of approximately $ 170 million resulting from the reduction in the u.s. statutory corporate tax rate from 35 % to 21 % , effective january 1 , 2018. the reduction in the u.s. statutory corporate tax rate resulted in a blended u.s. statutory corporate tax rate of 34 % during fiscal 2018. our tax expense in fiscal 2018 benefited from the recognition of excess tax benefits of $ 106 million , in connection with our adoption of accounting standards update ( โ€œ asu โ€ ) no . 2016-09 , compensation-stock compensation ( topic 718 ) during the first quarter of fiscal 2018. previously , the excess tax benefits were recognized in additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheets . our effective income tax rate in fiscal 2016 was higher than in fiscal 2015 primarily as a result of a shift in mix of earnings from our lower tax non-u.s. jurisdictions to the u.s. this impact from the shift in mix of earnings was partially offset by the favorable impact of lower unrecognized tax benefit additions recorded in fiscal 2016 as compared to fiscal 2015. for the periods presented , our rate of taxation in non-u.s. jurisdictions was lower than our u.s. tax rate . our non-u.s. earnings are primarily earned by our subsidiaries organized in ireland , and as such , our annual effective tax rate can be significantly affected by the composition of our earnings in the u.s. and non-u.s. jurisdictions . we are included in dell 's consolidated tax group for u.s. federal income tax purposes and will continue to be included in dell 's consolidated group for periods in which dell beneficially owns at least 80 % of the total voting power and value of our combined outstanding class a and class b common stock as calculated for u.s. federal income tax purposes . the percentage of voting power and value calculated for u.s. federal income tax purposes may differ from the percentage of outstanding shares beneficially owned by dell due to the greater voting power of our class b common stock as compared to our class a common stock and other factors . each member of a consolidated group during any part of a consolidated return year is jointly and severally liable for tax on the consolidated return of such year and for any subsequently determined deficiency thereon . should dell 's ownership fall below 80 % of the total voting power or value of our outstanding stock in any period , then we would no longer be included in the dell consolidated group for u.s. federal income tax purposes , and our u.s. federal income tax would be reported separately from that of the dell consolidated group . 44 although our results are included in the dell consolidated return for u.s. federal income tax purposes , our income tax provision , including provisional estimates of taxes relating to the 2017 tax act , is calculated primarily as though we were a separate taxpayer . however , under certain circumstances , transactions between us and dell are assessed using consolidated tax return rules . our future effective tax rate will benefit significantly from certain provisions of the 2017 tax act , including the reduction in the u.s. statutory corporate tax rate . however , the effect of the global intangible low-taxed income tax and the base erosion tax , as well as changes to our provisional accounting for the effects of the 2017 tax act during the measurement period , on our future effective tax rate is uncertain . our future effective tax rate may also be affected by such factors as changes in tax laws , changes in our business or statutory rates , changing interpretation of existing laws or regulations , the impact of accounting for stock-based compensation and the recognition of excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies within the income tax provision in the period in which they occur , the impact of accounting for business combinations , changes in the composition of earnings in the u.s. compared with other regions in the world and overall levels of income before tax , changes in our international organization , as well as the expiration of statute of limitations and settlements of audits . our relationship with dell as of february 2 , 2018 , dell controlled 31 million shares of class a common stock and all 300 million shares of class b common stock , representing 81.9 % of our total outstanding shares of common stock and 97.6 % of the combined voting power of our outstanding common stock . for a description of related risks , refer to โ€œ risks related to our relationship with dell โ€ in part i , item 1a of

the establishment of such a valuation allowance , or any increase in an existing valuation allowance , would be effectuated through a charge to the provision for income taxes or a reduction in any income tax credit for the period in which such valuation allowance is established or increased . allowance for loan and lease losses . our alll is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense and may be reduced by a recapture of previously established loss reserves , which are also reflected in the statement of income . loans are charged against the alll when management believes that collectability of the principal is unlikely . the alll is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible based on an evaluation of the collectability of loans and prior loan loss experience . this evaluation also takes into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio , overall portfolio quality , review of specific problem loans , current economic conditions and certain other subjective factors that may affect the borrower 's ability to pay . while we use the best information available to make this evaluation , future adjustments to our alll may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic or other conditions that can affect the collectability in full of loans in our loan portfolio . 38 adoption of new or revised accounting standards . we have elected to take advantage of the extended transition period afforded by the jobs act , for the implementation of new or revised accounting standards . as a result , we will not be required to comply with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies or we cease to be an ย“emerging growthย” company as defined in the jobs act . as a result of this election , our financial statements may not be comparable to the financials statements of companies that comply with public company effective dates . we have two business segments , ย“bankingย” and ย“investment management , wealth planning and consultingย” ( ย“wealth managementย” ) . banking includes the operations of ffb and ffis and wealth management includes the operations of ffa . the financial position and operating results of the stand-alone holding company , ffi , are included under the caption ย“otherย” in certain of the tables that follow , along with any consolidation elimination entries . recent developments and overview on april 19 , 2013 , we entered into a term loan note agreement with an unaffiliated bank lender under which we borrowed $ 7.5 million . these borrowings bear interest at a rate equal to ninety day libor plus 4.0 % per annum . the term of the loan is five years . the loan agreement requires us to make monthly payments of principal and interest , the amounts of which are determined on the basis of a 10 year amortization schedule , with a final payment of the unpaid principal balance , in the amount of $ 3.8 million plus accrued but unpaid interest , at the maturity date of the loan in may 2018. we have the right , in our discretion , to prepay the loan at any time in whole or , from time to time , in part , without any penalties or premium . we are required to meet certain financial covenants during the term of the loan . as security for our repayment of the loan , we pledged all of the common stock of ffb to the lender . see ย“financial conditionย—term loanย” below for additional information regarding this loan . we opened a wealth management office in las vegas in the second quarter of 2013 and we moved into our permanent 10,000 square foot leased office in the third quarter of 2013. in the fourth quarter of 2013 , we relocated our irvine wealth management office to a 2,900 square foot leased office in newport beach , california . on august 15 , 2012 , we completed the acquisition of dcb in exchange for the issuance of 815,447 shares of common stock , valued at $ 15.00 per share . as a result of the dcb acquisition , ffb acquired $ 35 million of cash , $ 9 million of securities , $ 90 million of loans , $ 6 million of deferred taxes and other assets , and assumed $ 127 million of deposits along with the operations of dcb . in addition , ffb acquired branches in palm desert and el centro , california . during the first quarter of 2013 , we finished the integration of dcb into our operations . we have continued to grow both our banking and wealth management operations . comparing 2013 to 2012 , we have increased our revenues ( net interest income and noninterest income ) by 25 % . this growth in revenues is the result of the growth in ffb 's total interest-earning assets and in aum in wealth management . during 2013 , total loans and total deposits in banking increased 22 % and 23 % , respectively , while the aum in wealth management increased by $ 366 million or 16 % and totaled $ 2.59 billion as of december 31 , 2013. the growth in aum includes the addition of $ 242 million of net new accounts and $ 237 million of gains realized in client accounts during 2013. the results of operations for banking reflect the benefits of this growth as income before taxes for banking increased $ 2.7 million from $ 10.0 million in 2012 to $ 12.7 million in 2013. because we continue to add new staff and locations as part of our business plan , the increases in our revenues in wealth management were offset by increases in noninterest expenses . story_separator_special_tag million gain on sale of reo in 2011. excluding the $ 3.7 million gain on sale of reo recognized in 2011 , the $ 1.2 million increase in noninterest income in banking for 2012 , as compared to 2011 , was due to increased activity levels in the trust operations of ffb as well as increased fees related to the prepayment of loans . trust aum increased from $ 135 million at the beginning of 2011 to $ 309 million at the end of 2012. loan prepayments totaled $ 116 million in 2012 as compared to $ 61 million in 2011. the following table provides a breakdown of noninterest income for wealth management for the years ended december 31 : replace_table_token_16_th asset management fees increased by 15 % in 2012 as compared to 2011 due to a 21 % increase in the average billable aum which was partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average investment advisory fee rate . at december 31 , 2012 , aum totaled $ 2.23 billion as compared to $ 1.83 billion at december 31 , 2011 and $ 1.56 billion at december 31 , 2010. noninterest expense : the following table provides a breakdown of noninterest expense for banking and wealth management for the years ended december 31 : replace_table_token_17_th the increase in noninterest expense in banking during 2012 as compared to 2011 was due to increases in staffing , increases in noninterest expenses as a result of the dcb acquisition and costs associated with our higher balances of loans and deposits . compensation and benefits increased $ 3.4 million in 2012 as compared to

Activity Report : the establishment of such a valuation allowance , or any increase in an existing valuation allowance , would be effectuated through a charge to the provision for income taxes or a reduction in any income tax credit for the period in which such valuation allowance is established or increased . allowance for loan and lease losses . our alll is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense and may be reduced by a recapture of previously established loss reserves , which are also reflected in the statement of income . loans are charged against the alll when management believes that collectability of the principal is unlikely . the alll is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible based on an evaluation of the collectability of loans and prior loan loss experience . this evaluation also takes into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio , overall portfolio quality , review of specific problem loans , current economic conditions and certain other subjective factors that may affect the borrower 's ability to pay . while we use the best information available to make this evaluation , future adjustments to our alll may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic or other conditions that can affect the collectability in full of loans in our loan portfolio . 38 adoption of new or revised accounting standards . we have elected to take advantage of the extended transition period afforded by the jobs act , for the implementation of new or revised accounting standards . as a result , we will not be required to comply with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies or we cease to be an ย“emerging growthย” company as defined in the jobs act . as a result of this election , our financial statements may not be comparable to the financials statements of companies that comply with public company effective dates . we have two business segments , ย“bankingย” and ย“investment management , wealth planning and consultingย” ( ย“wealth managementย” ) . banking includes the operations of ffb and ffis and wealth management includes the operations of ffa . the financial position and operating results of the stand-alone holding company , ffi , are included under the caption ย“otherย” in certain of the tables that follow , along with any consolidation elimination entries . recent developments and overview on april 19 , 2013 , we entered into a term loan note agreement with an unaffiliated bank lender under which we borrowed $ 7.5 million . these borrowings bear interest at a rate equal to ninety day libor plus 4.0 % per annum . the term of the loan is five years . the loan agreement requires us to make monthly payments of principal and interest , the amounts of which are determined on the basis of a 10 year amortization schedule , with a final payment of the unpaid principal balance , in the amount of $ 3.8 million plus accrued but unpaid interest , at the maturity date of the loan in may 2018. we have the right , in our discretion , to prepay the loan at any time in whole or , from time to time , in part , without any penalties or premium . we are required to meet certain financial covenants during the term of the loan . as security for our repayment of the loan , we pledged all of the common stock of ffb to the lender . see ย“financial conditionย—term loanย” below for additional information regarding this loan . we opened a wealth management office in las vegas in the second quarter of 2013 and we moved into our permanent 10,000 square foot leased office in the third quarter of 2013. in the fourth quarter of 2013 , we relocated our irvine wealth management office to a 2,900 square foot leased office in newport beach , california . on august 15 , 2012 , we completed the acquisition of dcb in exchange for the issuance of 815,447 shares of common stock , valued at $ 15.00 per share . as a result of the dcb acquisition , ffb acquired $ 35 million of cash , $ 9 million of securities , $ 90 million of loans , $ 6 million of deferred taxes and other assets , and assumed $ 127 million of deposits along with the operations of dcb . in addition , ffb acquired branches in palm desert and el centro , california . during the first quarter of 2013 , we finished the integration of dcb into our operations . we have continued to grow both our banking and wealth management operations . comparing 2013 to 2012 , we have increased our revenues ( net interest income and noninterest income ) by 25 % . this growth in revenues is the result of the growth in ffb 's total interest-earning assets and in aum in wealth management . during 2013 , total loans and total deposits in banking increased 22 % and 23 % , respectively , while the aum in wealth management increased by $ 366 million or 16 % and totaled $ 2.59 billion as of december 31 , 2013. the growth in aum includes the addition of $ 242 million of net new accounts and $ 237 million of gains realized in client accounts during 2013. the results of operations for banking reflect the benefits of this growth as income before taxes for banking increased $ 2.7 million from $ 10.0 million in 2012 to $ 12.7 million in 2013. because we continue to add new staff and locations as part of our business plan , the increases in our revenues in wealth management were offset by increases in noninterest expenses . story_separator_special_tag million gain on sale of reo in 2011. excluding the $ 3.7 million gain on sale of reo recognized in 2011 , the $ 1.2 million increase in noninterest income in banking for 2012 , as compared to 2011 , was due to increased activity levels in the trust operations of ffb as well as increased fees related to the prepayment of loans . trust aum increased from $ 135 million at the beginning of 2011 to $ 309 million at the end of 2012. loan prepayments totaled $ 116 million in 2012 as compared to $ 61 million in 2011. the following table provides a breakdown of noninterest income for wealth management for the years ended december 31 : replace_table_token_16_th asset management fees increased by 15 % in 2012 as compared to 2011 due to a 21 % increase in the average billable aum which was partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average investment advisory fee rate . at december 31 , 2012 , aum totaled $ 2.23 billion as compared to $ 1.83 billion at december 31 , 2011 and $ 1.56 billion at december 31 , 2010. noninterest expense : the following table provides a breakdown of noninterest expense for banking and wealth management for the years ended december 31 : replace_table_token_17_th the increase in noninterest expense in banking during 2012 as compared to 2011 was due to

3.4 million in 2012 as compared to 2011 as the number of fte in banking increased to 87.9 fte during 2012 as compared to 58.6 fte during 2011. the increase in staffing was primarily due to the opening

we recognize our revenue according to the contract type . on a daily basis , we recognize service revenue over time for contracts that provide for specific time , material and equipment charges , which we bill periodically , ranging from weekly to monthly . we use the input method to faithfully depict revenue recognition , because each day of service provided represents value to the customer . the performance obligations in these contracts are satisfied , and revenue is recognized , as the work is performed . we have used the 29 expedient available to recognize revenue when the billing corresponds to the value realized by the customer where appropriate . we account for significant fixed-price contracts , mainly relating to our subsea products segment , and to a lesser extent in our subsea projects and advanced technologies segments , by recognizing revenue over time using an input , cost-to-cost measurement percentage-of-completion method . we use the input cost-to-cost method to faithfully depict revenue recognition . this commonly used method allows appropriate calculation of progress on our contracts . a performance obligation is satisfied as we create a product on behalf of the customer over the life of the contract . the remainder of our revenue is recognized at the point in time when control transfers to the customer , thus satisfying the performance obligation . we have elected to recognize the cost for freight and shipping as an expense when incurred . taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction , and that are collected by us from customers , are excluded from revenue . in our service-based business lines , which principally charge on a day rate basis for services provided , there is no significant impact in the pattern of revenue and profit recognition as a result of implementation of asc 606. in our product-based business lines , there are impacts on the pattern of our revenue and profit recognition in our contracts using the percentage-of-completion method , as a result of the requirement to exclude uninstalled materials and significant inefficiencies from the measure of progress . this occurs in our subsea products segment . we apply judgment in the determination and allocation of transaction price to performance obligations , and the subsequent recognition of revenue , based on the facts and circumstances of each contract . we routinely review estimates related to our contracts and , where required , reflect revisions to profitability in earnings immediately . if an element of variable consideration has the potential for a significant future reversal of revenue , we will constrain that variable consideration to a level intended to remove the potential future reversal . if a current estimate of total contract cost indicates an ultimate loss on a contract , we recognize the projected loss in full when we determine it . in prior years , we have recorded adjustments to earnings as a result of revisions to contract estimates . we strive to estimate our contract costs and profitability accurately . however , there could be significant adjustments to overall contract costs in the future , due to changes in facts and circumstances . in general , our payment terms consist of those services billed regularly as provided and those products delivered at a point in time , which are invoiced after the performance obligation is satisfied . our product and service contracts with milestone payments due at agreed progress points during the contract are invoiced when those milestones are reached , which may differ from the timing of revenue recognition . our payment terms generally do not provide financing of contracts to customers , nor do we receive financing from customers as a result of these terms . property and equipment and long-lived intangible assets . we periodically and upon the occurrence of a triggering event review the realizability of our property and equipment and long-lived intangible assets to determine whether any events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable . for long-lived assets to be held and used , we base our evaluation on impairment indicators such as the nature of the assets , the future economic benefits of the assets , any historical or future profitability measurements and other external market conditions or factors that may be present . if such impairment indicators are present or other factors exist that indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable , we determine whether an impairment has occurred through the use of an undiscounted cash flows analysis of the asset at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows exist . if an impairment has occurred , we recognize a loss for the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the asset . for assets held for sale or disposal , the fair value of the asset is measured using fair market value less cost to sell . assets are classified as held-for-sale when we have a plan for disposal of certain assets and those assets meet the held for sale criteria . 30 we charge the costs of repair and maintenance of property and equipment to operations as incurred , while we capitalize the costs of improvements that extend asset lives or functionality . goodwill . our goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually and whenever we identify certain triggering events or circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount . story_separator_special_tag we added six , seven and six rovs to our fleet and retired ten , eight and 41 units during 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively , resulting in a total of 275 work-class systems in our fleet at december 31 , 2018 . over the past three years , we retired a greater number of rovs than we have added due to market conditions and outlook . we previously had several deepwater vessels under long-term charter . the last of our long-term charters expired in march 2018. with the current market conditions , our philosophy is to attempt to charter vessels for specific projects on a back-to-back basis with the vessel owners . this generally minimizes our contract exposure by closely matching our obligations with our revenue . unless indicated otherwise , each of the chartered vessels discussed below is a deepwater multiservice subsea support vessel outfitted with two of our high-specification work-class rovs . in 2012 , we moved the chartered vessel ocean intervention iii to angola and also chartered the bourbon oceanteam 101 to work on a three-year field support vessel services contract for a unit of bp plc . we had extended the charter of the bourbon oceanteam 101 to january 2017. however , in early 2016 , the customer exercised its right , under the field support vessel services contract , to terminate its use of the bourbon oceanteam 101 at the end of may 2016. under the terms of the contract , the costs incurred by us associated with the early release and demobilization of the vessel were reimbursed by the customer . following the release of the vessel , we redelivered it to the vessel supplier . the charter for the ocean intervention iii expired at the end of july 2017. under the field support vessel services contract , which was extended through january 2022 , we are continuing to supply project management and engineering services . we also provide rov tooling and asset integrity services as requested by the customer . chartered vessels and barges are provided to the customer upon request . in march 2013 , we commenced a five-year bareboat charter for a jones act-compliant multiservice support vessel , the ocean alliance , we have been using in the u.s. gulf of mexico . in january 2015 , we commenced a two-year contract with a customer for the use of the ocean alliance , which expired in january 2017. we returned the ocean alliance to the vessel owner in the first quarter of 2018 and continue to market the vessel , now renamed the cade candies , for spot market work in the u.s. gulf of mexico on a back-to-back basis with the owner . in december 2013 , we commenced a three-year charter for the normand flower , a multiservice subsea marine support vessel . we made modifications to the vessel and used the vessel in the u.s. gulf of mexico to perform inspection , maintenance and repair projects and hardware installations . in december 2016 , we declined our option to extend the charter and the vessel was released . in november 2015 , we commenced a two-year charter for the use of the island pride , a multiservice subsea marine support vessel . we used the vessel under a two-year contract to provide field support services off the coast of india for an oil and gas customer based in india . in 34 november 2017 , that field services contract expired and we declined our option to extend the vessel charter . we also charter or lease vessels on a short-term basis as necessary to augment our fleet . during the third quarter of 2013 , we signed an agreement with a shipyard for the construction of a subsea support vessel , to be named the ocean evolution . we expect to take delivery in the first quarter and place the vessel into service in the second quarter of 2019. we intend for the vessel to be u.s. flagged and documented with a coastwise endorsement by the u.s. coast guard . the vessel has an overall length of 353 feet , a class 2 dynamic positioning system , accommodations for 110 personnel , a helideck , a 250-ton active heave-compensated crane , a working moonpool , and two of our high specification 4,000 meter work-class rovs . the vessel is also equipped with a satellite communications system capable of transmitting streaming video for real-time work observation by shore personnel . we anticipate the vessel will be used to augment our ability to provide subsea intervention services in the u.s. gulf of mexico . these services are required to perform inspection , maintenance and repair projects and hardware installations . our principal source of cash from operating activities is our net income ( loss ) , adjusted for the non-cash expenses of depreciation and amortization , deferred income taxes and noncash compensation under our restricted stock plans . our $ 37 million , $ 136 million and $ 339 million of cash provided from operating activities in 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively , were affected by cash increases ( decreases ) of : ( 1 ) $ ( 87 ) million , $ 13 million and $ 123

and $ ( 115 ) million , respectively , of changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities . the decrease in cash related to accounts receivable in 2018 reflected higher business levels in the fourth quarter of 2018 , as compared to the fourth quarter of 2017 , along with timing of customer payments . the increase in cash related to changes in current liabilities in 2018 reflected timing

input method to faithfully depict revenue recognition , because each day of service provided represents value to the customer . the performance obligations in these contracts are satisfied , and revenue is recognized , as the work is performed . we have used the 29 expedient available to recognize revenue when the billing corresponds to the value realized by the customer where appropriate . we account for significant fixed-price contracts , mainly relating to our subsea products segment , and to a lesser extent in our subsea projects and advanced technologies segments , by recognizing revenue over time using an input , cost-to-cost measurement percentage-of-completion method . we use the input cost-to-cost method to faithfully depict revenue recognition . this commonly used method allows appropriate calculation of progress on our contracts . a performance obligation is satisfied as we create a product on behalf of the customer over the life of the contract . the remainder of our revenue is recognized at the point in time when control transfers to the customer , thus satisfying the performance obligation . we have elected to recognize the cost for freight and shipping as an expense when incurred . taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction , and that are collected by us from customers , are excluded from revenue . in our service-based business lines , which principally charge on a day rate basis for services provided , there is no significant impact in the pattern of revenue and profit recognition as a result of implementation of asc 606. in our product-based business lines , there are impacts on the pattern of our revenue and profit recognition in our contracts using the percentage-of-completion method , as a result of the requirement to exclude uninstalled materials and significant inefficiencies from the measure of progress . this occurs in our subsea products segment . we apply judgment in the determination and allocation of transaction price to performance obligations , and the subsequent recognition of revenue , based on the facts and circumstances of each contract . we routinely review estimates related to our contracts and , where required , reflect revisions to profitability in earnings immediately . if an element of variable consideration has the potential for a significant future reversal of revenue , we will constrain that variable consideration to a level intended to remove the potential future reversal . if a current estimate of total contract cost indicates an ultimate loss on a contract , we recognize the projected loss in full when we determine it . in prior years , we have recorded adjustments to earnings as a result of revisions to contract estimates . we strive to estimate our contract costs and profitability accurately . however , there could be significant adjustments to overall contract costs in the future , due to changes in facts and circumstances . in general , our payment terms consist of those services billed regularly as provided and those products delivered at a point in time , which are invoiced after the performance obligation is satisfied . our product and service contracts with milestone payments due at agreed progress points during the contract are invoiced when those milestones are reached , which may differ from the timing of revenue recognition . our payment terms generally do not provide financing of contracts to customers , nor do we receive financing from customers as a result of these terms . property and equipment and long-lived intangible assets . we periodically and upon the occurrence of a triggering event review the realizability of our property and equipment and long-lived intangible assets to determine whether any events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable . for long-lived assets to be held and used , we base our evaluation on impairment indicators such as the nature of the assets , the future economic benefits of the assets , any historical or future profitability measurements and other external market conditions or factors that may be present . if such impairment indicators are present or other factors exist that indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable , we determine whether an impairment has occurred through the use of an undiscounted cash flows analysis of the asset at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows exist . if an impairment has occurred , we recognize a loss for the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the asset . for assets held for sale or disposal , the fair value of the asset is measured using fair market value less cost to sell . assets are classified as held-for-sale when we have a plan for disposal of certain assets and those assets meet the held for sale criteria . 30 we charge the costs of repair and maintenance of property and equipment to operations as incurred , while we capitalize the costs of improvements that extend asset lives or functionality . goodwill . our goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually and whenever we identify certain triggering events or circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount . story_separator_special_tag we added six , seven and six rovs to our fleet and retired ten , eight and 41 units during 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively , resulting in a total of 275 work-class systems in our fleet at december 31 , 2018 . over the past three years , we retired a greater number of rovs than we have added due to market conditions and outlook . we previously had several deepwater vessels under long-term charter . the last of our long-term charters expired in march 2018. with the current market conditions , our philosophy is to attempt to charter vessels for specific projects on a back-to-back basis with the vessel owners . this generally minimizes our contract exposure by closely matching our obligations with our revenue . unless indicated otherwise , each of the chartered vessels discussed below is a deepwater multiservice subsea support vessel outfitted with two of our high-specification work-class rovs . in 2012 , we moved the chartered vessel ocean intervention iii to angola and also chartered the bourbon oceanteam 101 to work on a three-year field support vessel services contract for a unit of bp plc . we had extended the charter of the bourbon oceanteam 101 to january 2017. however , in early 2016 , the customer exercised its right , under the field support vessel services contract , to terminate its use of the bourbon oceanteam 101 at the end of may 2016. under the terms of the contract , the costs incurred by us associated with the early release and demobilization of the vessel were reimbursed by the customer . following the release of the vessel , we redelivered it to the vessel supplier . the charter for the ocean intervention iii expired at the end of july 2017. under the field support vessel services contract , which was extended through january 2022 , we are continuing to supply project management and engineering services . we also provide rov tooling and asset integrity services as requested by the customer . chartered vessels and barges are provided to the customer upon request . in march 2013 , we commenced a five-year bareboat charter for a jones act-compliant multiservice support vessel , the ocean alliance , we have been using in the u.s. gulf of mexico . in january 2015 , we commenced a two-year contract with a customer for the use of the ocean alliance , which expired in january 2017. we returned the ocean alliance to the vessel owner in the first quarter of 2018 and continue to market the vessel , now renamed the cade candies , for spot market work in the u.s. gulf of mexico on a back-to-back basis with the owner . in december 2013 , we commenced a three-year charter for the normand flower , a multiservice subsea marine support vessel . we made modifications to the vessel and used the vessel in the u.s. gulf of mexico to perform inspection , maintenance and repair projects and hardware installations . in december 2016 , we declined our option to extend the charter and the vessel was released . in november 2015 , we commenced a two-year charter for the use of the island pride , a multiservice subsea marine support vessel . we used the vessel under a two-year contract to provide field support services off the coast of india for an oil and gas customer based in india . in 34 november 2017 , that field services contract expired and we declined our option to extend the vessel charter . we also charter or lease vessels on a short-term basis as necessary to augment our fleet . during the third quarter of 2013 , we signed an agreement with a shipyard for the construction of a subsea support vessel , to be named the ocean evolution . we expect to take delivery in the first quarter and place the vessel into service in the second quarter of 2019. we intend for the vessel to be u.s. flagged and documented with a coastwise endorsement by the u.s. coast guard . the vessel has an overall length of 353 feet , a class 2 dynamic positioning system , accommodations for 110 personnel , a helideck , a 250-ton active heave-compensated crane , a working moonpool , and two of our high specification 4,000 meter work-class rovs . the vessel is also equipped with a satellite communications system capable of transmitting streaming video for real-time work observation by shore personnel . we anticipate the vessel will be used to augment our ability to provide subsea intervention services in the u.s. gulf of mexico . these services are required to perform inspection , maintenance and repair projects and hardware installations . our principal source of cash from operating activities is our net income ( loss ) , adjusted for the non-cash expenses of depreciation and amortization , deferred income taxes and noncash compensation under our restricted stock plans . our $ 37 million , $ 136 million and $ 339 million of cash provided from operating activities in 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively , were affected by cash increases ( decreases ) of : ( 1 ) $ ( 87 ) million , $ 13 million and $ 123 million , respectively , of changes in accounts receivable ; ( 2 ) $ ( 12 ) million , $ 66 million and $ 18 million , respectively , of changes in inventory ; and ( 3 ) $ 29 million , $ ( 76 ) million and $ ( 115 ) million , respectively , of changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities . the decrease in cash related to accounts receivable in 2018 reflected higher business levels in the fourth quarter of 2018 , as compared to the fourth quarter of 2017 , along with timing of customer payments . the increase in cash related to changes in current liabilities in 2018 reflected timing of

certain of our properties in 2020 , certain below market lease intangibles becoming fully amortized , termination fee revenue totaling $ 1,543 recorded at certain of our comparable properties in 2019 , reductions in reimbursement income due to reductions in expenses that are reimbursable to us by our tenants as a result of the covid-19 pandemic and resulting decrease in space utilization , and

were partially offset by an increase in cleaning costs related to more frequent cleaning and sanitizing practices at our properties to help mitigate the spread of covid-19 , lower snow removal costs and lower parking garage maintenance costs due to lower parking activity at certain of our properties resulting from the covid-19 pandemic , partially offset by higher insurance costs in 2020.

properties of $ 12,891 and a decrease related to a property undergoing significant redevelopment of $ 2,567 , offset by an increase related to acquired properties of $ 231. depreciation and

it also features an easy-to-navigate software architecture , a vivid color touch screen and a micro-usb connection that supports both a rechargeable battery and t : connect , our custom cloud-based data management application that provides a fast , easy and visual way to display therapy management data from the pump and supported blood glucose meters . we began commercial sales of our first product , t : slim , in august 2012. during 2015 , we commenced commercial sales of two additional insulin pumps : t : flex in may 2015 and t : slim g4 in september 2015. since inception , we have derived nearly all of our revenue from the sale of insulin pumps and associated supplies in the united states . we consider the number of units shipped per quarter to be an important metric for managing our business . we have shipped nearly 34,000 insulin pumps since the initiation of our commercial efforts in 2012. pump shipments are broken down by product , and by quarter as follows : 56 replace_table_token_4_th ( 1 ) this table does not reflect returns or exchanges of pump products that occurred in the ordinary course of business . ( 2 ) during the fourth quarter of 2015 , 148 t : slim pumps and two t : flex pumps originally shipped in the third quarter of 2015 were exchanged for t : slim g4 pumps under a limited product exchange program ( as described below ) . amounts for the fourth quarter of 2015 in the table above are adjusted to reflect the impact of the exchange program . for the years ended december 31 , 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , our sales were $ 72.9 million , $ 49.7 million and $ 29.0 million , respectively . for the years ended december 31 , 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , our net loss was $ 72.4 million , $ 79.5 million and $ 63.1 million , respectively . our accumulated deficit as of december 31 , 2015 was $ 321.1 million . in connection with t : slim g4 commercial launch , we offered a limited product exchange program , referred to as the exchange program for eligible customers . the exchange program offered customers who received a t : slim or t : flex pump on or after august 1 , 2015 , a limited period in which to elect to exchange their pump for a t : slim g4 . the ability to elect an exchange ended in the early part of october 2015. at the close of the exchange program , a total of 150 t : slim or t : flex pumps were exchanged for t : slim g4 pumps . we accrued for estimated exchanges and associated costs by reducing sales and deferring cost of sales in the third quarter of 2015. the deferred sales and the cost of sales under the exchange program were recognized either upon delivery of t : slim g4 to the customer during the fourth quarter of 2015 or expiration of the program for those that were not exchanged . in the fourth quarter , t : slim g4 made up majority of our overall shipments . while there is some cannibalization of t : slim , and this high percentage may also reflect some pent up demand , we also believe this trend demonstrates that there is significant interest in this product . we expect that t : slim g4 will represent the largest percentage of our pump shipments in 2016. a substantial portion of the purchase price of an insulin pump is typically paid for by third-party payors , including private insurance companies , preferred provider organizations and other managed care providers . access to adequate coverage and reimbursement for our current and future products by third-party payors is essential to the acceptance of our products by customers . future sales of our current and future products will be limited unless our customers can rely on third-party payors to pay for all or part of the associated purchase cost . in circumstances in which we do not have contracts established with third-party payors , to the extent possible , we utilize our network of national and regional distributors to service our customers . 57 we believe we can achieve profitability because our proprietary technology platform will allow us to maximize efficiencies in the development , production and sale of our products . by offering a family of products , all of which are based on our proprietary technology platform , we believe we can develop and bring to market products more rapidly , while significantly reducing our design and development costs . due to shared product design features , ou r production system is adaptable to new products and we intend to leverage our shared manufacturing infrastructure to reduce our product costs and drive operational efficiencies . further , we expect to continue to increase production volume and to reduce th e per-unit production overhead cost for our pump products and their associated disposable cartridges over time . by expanding our product offerings to address people in different segments of the large and growing insulin-dependent diabetes market , we believ e we can increase the productivity of our sales , clinical and marketing organization , and utilize the expertise of our customer , technical and support services , thereby improving our operating margin . from inception through december 31 , 2015 , we have primarily financed our operations through sales of equity securities , and to a lesser extent , debt financings . we expect to continue to incur net losses for the next several years , and may require additional capital through equity and debt financings in order to fund our operations until we reach a level of revenue adequate to support our cost structure . story_separator_special_tag sales from t : slim pump accounted for 86 % and 90 % of sales , respectively , for the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013 , while pump-related supplies primarily accounted for the remainder in each year . sales of accessories were not material in either year . the growth in sales was primarily driven by a 67 % increase in t : slim pump shipments from 6,472 in 2013 to 10,822 in 2014. we expanded the number of sales territories in the united states from 36 at the end of 2013 to 60 at the end of the second quarter of 2014. as a result of our sales force expansion , our field personnel experienced some initial disruption in their sales productivity as their territories were realigned and responsibilities adjusted . 61 sales to distributors accounted for 75 % and 69 % of our total sales for the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013 , respectively . the increase in the percentage of our sales to distributors is primarily attributable to certain arrangements between insurance payors and our distributors that becam e effective during the third quarter of 2014. as a result of these arrangements , a portion of our business that previously involved an opportunity to make a direct sale to the customer transitioned to an opportunity to make a sale through a distributor . th e new arrangement afforded certain members easier access to our products as an in-network benefit and provided access to our products to a large portion of members who were previously unable to obtain coverage for our products at all . cost of sales and gross profit . our cost of sales in 2014 was $ 34.5 million , resulting in gross profit of $ 15.2 million , compared to $ 22.8 million in cost of sales and gross profit of $ 6.2 million in 2013. the gross margin in 2014 was 31 % , compared to 21 % in 2013. the improvement in the gross margin was primarily a result of manufacturing efficiencies associated with an increase in production output and improvement in our manufacturing processes . our pump manufacturing overhead spending decreased 19 % while our pump units produced increased 56 % in 2014 compared to 2013 , and our cartridge manufacturing overhead spending increased 40 % while our cartridge units produced increased 143 % in 2014 compared to 2013. included in cost of sales for the year ended december 31 , 2014 were costs of $ 0.4 million associated with our voluntary product recall of selected lots of cartridges initiated in january 2014. the voluntary recall resulted in a less than one percentage point reduction in the gross margin for the year ended december 31 , 2014. by comparison , the 2013 gross margin included $ 1.3 million of recall-associated costs , or a reduction of the gross margin of five percentage points . also included in cost of sales in 2013 were costs of $ 1.1 million that were previously deferred at the end of the fourth quarter of 2012 due to our lack of history for estimating product returns at that time . these costs , along with the previously deferred sales of $ 1.9 million recognized in the first quarter of 2013 , resulted in a two-percentage point increase in gross margin for the year ended december 31 , 2013. selling , general and administrative expenses . sg & a expenses increased 69 % to $ 75.1 million in 2014 from $ 44.5 million in 2013. the increase in sg & a expenses was primarily associated with the expansion of our commercial operations during 2014. as of december 31 , 2014 , our headcount for sales , general and administrative functions increased 43 % compared to december 31 , 2013. this includes an expansion from 36 to 60 territories during 2014 , as well as the growth of the administrative infrastructure to support operations . territories are maintained by sales representatives , field clinical specialists , managed care liaisons , additional sales management and other customer support personnel . employee-related expenses for our sales , general and administrative functions comprise the majority of the sg & a expenses . such employee-related expenses increased $ 24.9 million during 2014 compared to 2013 , including an increase of $ 8.3 million in stock-based compensation associated with equity awards . sg & a expenses also increased $ 5.7 million associated with marketing and promotional activities , tradeshows , travel expenses and facility expansion . research and development expenses . r & d expenses increased 43 % to $ 15.8 million in 2014 from $ 11.1 million in 2013. the increase in r & d expenses in 2014 consisted primarily of an increase of $ 2.5 million in employee-related expenses . at december 31 , 2014 , our headcount for research and development functions increased 17 % compared to december 31 , 2013. the increase in r & d expenses also consisted of a milestone payment of $ 1.0 million to dexcom under our development and commercialization agreement related to our submission of a pma for t : slim g4 to the fda in july 2014. other income ( expense ) . other expense in 2014 was $ 3.8 million , compared to $ 13.7 million in 2013. other expense in 2014 primarily consisted of interest expense associated with the term loan agreement with capital royalty partners in december 2012 and subsequently amended and restated in april 2014 , and further amended in june 2014 , february 2015 and january 2016. we borrowed $ 30 million under the term loan agreement with capital royalty partners in january 2013. in comparison , other expense in 2013 was primarily comprised of $ 9.0 million of expense associated with the revaluation of the fair value of common and preferred stock warrants and $ 4.7 million of interest expense associated with our term loan agreement with capital royalty partners .
liquidity and capital resources at december 31 , 2015 , we had $ 73.1 million in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments , which included $ 2.0 million of restricted cash . we borrowed $ 15.0 million in january 2016 , under the third amendment to our term loan agreement with capital royalty partners . the third amendment also provides us with a one-time option to borrow up to an additional $ 35.0 million in increments of $ 5.0 million on or before december 31 , 2016. we believe that our cash on hand , cash generated from operations , cash available under the third amendment to our term loan agreement with capital royalty partners , and proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants , as well as proceeds from employee contributions for the purchase of our common stock through our espp , will be sufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months . we expect that our sales performance and the resulting operating income or loss , as well as the status of each of our new product development programs , will significantly impact our cash management decisions . we have utilized , and may continue to utilize , debt arrangements with debt providers and financial institutions to finance our operations . factors such as interest rates , repayment terms and available cash will impact our decision to continue to utilize debt arrangements as a source of cash . in november 2013 , we completed an initial public offering of common stock that resulted in net proceeds of approximately $ 125.0 million , and in the first quarter of 2015 we completed a public offering of common stock that resulted in net proceeds of approximately $ 64.9 million . in the future , we may give consideration to additional public offerings of equity securities as a source of financing .

( 2 ) during the fourth quarter of 2015 , 148 t : slim pumps and two t : flex pumps originally shipped in the third quarter of 2015 were exchanged for t : slim g4 pumps under a limited product exchange program ( as described below ) . amounts for the fourth quarter of 2015 in the table above are adjusted to reflect the impact of the exchange program . for the years ended december 31 , 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , our sales were $ 72.9 million , $ 49.7 million and $ 29.0 million , respectively . for the years ended december 31 , 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , our net loss was $ 72.4 million , $ 79.5 million and $ 63.1 million , respectively . our accumulated deficit as of december 31 , 2015 was $ 321.1 million . in connection with t : slim g4 commercial launch , we offered a limited product exchange program , referred to as the exchange program for eligible customers . the exchange program offered customers who received a t : slim or t : flex pump on or after august 1 , 2015 , a limited period in which to elect to exchange their pump for a t : slim g4 . the ability to elect an exchange ended in the early part of october 2015. at the close of the exchange program , a total of 150 t : slim or t : flex pumps were exchanged for t : slim g4 pumps . we accrued for estimated exchanges and associated costs by reducing sales and deferring cost of sales in the third quarter of 2015. the deferred sales and the cost of sales under the exchange program were recognized either upon delivery of t : slim g4 to the customer during the fourth quarter of 2015 or expiration of the program for those that were not exchanged . in the fourth quarter , t : slim g4 made up majority of our overall shipments . while there is some cannibalization of t : slim , and this high percentage may also reflect some pent up demand , we also believe this trend demonstrates that there is significant interest in this product . we expect that t : slim g4 will represent the largest percentage of our pump

financial operations overview revenue to date , we have not generated any revenues . our ability to generate product revenues , which we do not expect will occur for many years , if ever , will depend heavily on the successful development and eventual commercialization of our product candidates . research and development expenses research and development expenses consist of costs associated with our research activities , including our drug discovery efforts , and the development of our therapeutic product candidates and companion diagnostics . our research and development expenses consist of : employee-related expenses , including salaries , benefits , travel and stock-based compensation expense ; 74 external research and development expenses incurred under arrangements with third parties , such as contract research organizations , or cros , manufacturing organizations and consultants , including our scientific advisory board ; license fees ; and facilities , depreciation and other allocated expenses , which include direct and allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities , depreciation of leasehold improvements and equipment , and laboratory and other supplies . we expense research and development costs to operations as incurred . we account for nonrefundable advance payments for goods and services that will be used in future research and development activities as expenses when the service has been performed or when the goods have been received , rather than when the payment is made . we use our employee and infrastructure resources across multiple research and development projects . we do not allocate employee-related expenses or depreciation to any particular project . because all of our development projects are in preclinical development , we do not track research and development costs by project . the components of our research and development costs are described in more detail in `` ย—results of operations . `` we anticipate that our research and development expenses will increase significantly in future periods as we increase the scope and rate of our drug discovery efforts and begin costlier development activities , including clinical trials for our current and additional product candidates in the future . the successful development of our product candidates is highly uncertain . at this time , we can not reasonably estimate or know the nature , timing and estimated costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete development of our product candidates or the period , if any , in which material net cash inflows from our product candidates may commence . this is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing drugs , including the uncertainty of : the scope , rate of progress and expense of our drug discovery efforts and other research and development activities ; the potential benefits of our product candidates over other therapies ; our ability to market , commercialize and achieve market acceptance for any of our product candidates that we are developing or may develop in the future ; clinical trial results ; the terms and timing of regulatory approvals ; and the expense of filing , prosecuting , defending and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights . a change in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development of a product candidate could mean a significant change in the costs and timing associated with the development of that product candidate . for example , if the fda or other regulatory authority were to require us to conduct clinical trials beyond those which we currently anticipate will be required for the completion of clinical development of a product candidate or if we experience significant delays in enrollment in any clinical trials , we could be required to expend significant additional financial resources and time on the completion of clinical development . 75 general and administrative expenses general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for personnel , including stock-based compensation expense , in our executive , finance and business development functions . other general and administrative expenses include allocated facility costs and professional fees for legal , patent , investor and public relations , consulting , insurance premiums , and accounting services . interest income prior to september 30 , 2011 , our cash and cash equivalents were invested in non-interest-bearing accounts . as a result , we did n't earn interest income until the last three months of 2011. accretion of preferred stock prior to the conversion of our preferred stock into 11,740,794 shares of common stock upon the closing of our initial public offering in february 2012 , our preferred stock was redeemable beginning in 2016 at its original issue price plus any declared but unpaid dividends upon a specified vote of the preferred stockholders . accretion of preferred stock reflects the periodic accretion of issuance costs on our preferred stock to its redemption value . critical accounting policies and significant judgments and estimates our management 's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements , which we have prepared in accordance with u.s. generally accepted accounting principles . the preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets , liabilities and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements . on an ongoing basis , we evaluate our estimates and judgments , including those related to accrued expenses and stock-based compensation described in greater detail below . we base our estimates on our limited historical experience , known trends and events and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances , the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources . actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions . story_separator_special_tag to the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities , the ownership 82 interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted , and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our existing stockholders . debt financing , if available , may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions , such as incurring additional debt , making capital expenditures or declaring dividends . if we raise additional funds through collaborations , strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties , we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies , future revenue streams , research programs or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us . if we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings when needed , we may be required to delay , limit , reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves . contractual obligations and commitments the following table summarizes our contractual obligations at december 31 , 2012. replace_table_token_10_th ( 1 ) as discussed in note 11 to the financial statements appearing elsewhere in this annual report on form 10-k , we have executed several agreements to license intellectual property . the license agreements require us to pay upfront license fees and ongoing annual license maintenance fees , totaling a minimum of $ 150,000 per year beginning in 2013 up to a maximum amount of $ 480,000 per year beginning in 2017 , as well as reimburse certain patent costs incurred by the licensors , as applicable . we have not included maintenance fees in the table above since the minimum annual payments are perpetual and the agreements are cancelable by us at any time upon prior written notice to the licensor . in july 2012 , we entered into a license agreement with pfizer inc. , ( `` pfizer `` ) , under which pfizer granted us worldwide , exclusive rights to research , develop , manufacture and commercialize products containing certain of pfizer 's inhibitors of focal adhesion kinase ( the `` products `` ) for all therapeutic , diagnostic and prophylactic uses in humans . we have the right to grant sublicenses under the foregoing licensed rights , subject to certain restrictions . we are solely responsible , at our own expense , for the clinical development of the products , which is to be conducted in accordance with an agreed-upon development plan . we are also responsible for all manufacturing and commercialization activities at our own expense . pfizer is required to provide us with an initial quantity of clinical supply of one of the products for an agreed upon price . we made a one-time cash payment to pfizer in the amount of $ 1.5 million and issued to pfizer 192,012 shares of our common stock . pfizer is also eligible to receive up to $ 2 million in developmental milestones and up to an additional $ 125 million based on the successful attainment of regulatory and commercial sales milestones . pfizer is also eligible to receive high single to mid double digit royalties on future net sales of products . our royalty obligations with respect to each product in each country begin on the date of first commercial sale of the product in that country , and end on the later of 10 years after the date of first commercial sale of the product in that country or the date of expiration or abandonment of the last claim contained in any issued patent or patent application licensed by pfizer to us that covers the product in that country . under our drug discovery platform license agreement , which we amended and restated in january 2012 , we also have agreed to make milestone payments to the whitehead institute upon achieving various development , regulatory and commercialization milestones . for each licensed product , we agreed to make milestone payments of up to an aggregate of $ 1,560,000 plus an additional amount for 83 each subsequent approval of additional indications for a maximum number of licensed products . for each identified product that is not a licensed product , we agreed to make milestone payments of up to an aggregate of $ 815,000 plus an additional amount for each subsequent approval of additional indications for a maximum number of identified products . each type of specified milestone payment is payable only for each of the maximum number of licensed products and the maximum number of identified products , as the case may be , to achieve the applicable milestone . in addition , a separate milestone payment is due upon the first commercial sale of each licensed product or identified product that is a diagnostic or prognostic test . a single additional milestone payment is due for the first issuance of licensed patent rights in the united states , the united kingdom , france , germany , spain or italy . in addition , we have agreed to pay the whitehead institute royalties as a percentage of net sales of licensed products . the royalty rate is in the low single digits as a percentage of net sales for licensed products that are therapeutics , the mid single digits for licensed products that are diagnostics or prognostics and less than one percent for identified products . under our license agreement with poniard pharmaceuticals , inc. , or poniard , that we entered into in november 2011

capital resources sources of liquidity to date , we have not generated any revenues . we have financed our operations to date through private placements of our preferred stock and our initial public offering , which we completed in february 2012. as of december 31 , 2012 , we had received $ 68.1 million in net proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock and $ 56.8 million in net proceeds from our initial public offering in february 2012. as of december 31 , 2012 , we had $ 91.5 million in cash , cash equivalents , short-term investments and long-term investments . we primarily invest our cash , cash equivalents and investments in a u.s. treasury money market fund , u.s. agency notes and corporate bonds . 80 cash flows the following table sets forth the primary sources and uses of cash for each of the periods set forth below . replace_table_token_9_th operating activities . the use of cash in all periods resulted primarily from our net losses adjusted for non-cash charges and favorable changes in the components of working capital . the increase in cash used in operating activities for the year ended december 31 , 2012 compared to the year ended december 31 , 2011 is due to an increase in research and development expenses as we increased our research and development headcount and increased spending on external research and development costs . the significant increase in cash used in operating activities for the year ended december 31 , 2011 compared to the period from august 4 , 2010 ( inception ) to december 31 , 2010 is due to an increase in research and development expenses as we increased our research and development headcount , increased spending on external research and development costs and from increases in the balance of accounts payable , accrued expenses and deferred rent . ``` Suspicious Activity Report : financial operations overview revenue to date , we have not generated any revenues . our ability to generate product revenues , which we do not expect will occur for many years , if ever , will depend heavily on the successful development and eventual commercialization of our product candidates . research and development expenses research and development expenses consist of costs associated with our research activities , including our drug discovery efforts , and the development of our therapeutic product candidates and companion diagnostics . our research and development expenses consist of : employee-related expenses , including salaries , benefits , travel and stock-based compensation expense ; 74 external research and development expenses incurred under arrangements with third parties , such as contract research organizations , or cros , manufacturing organizations and consultants , including our scientific advisory board ; license fees ; and facilities , depreciation and other allocated expenses , which include direct and allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities , depreciation of leasehold improvements and equipment , and laboratory and other supplies . we expense research and development costs to operations as incurred . we account for nonrefundable advance payments for goods and services that will be used in future research and development activities as expenses when the service has been performed or when the goods have been received , rather than when the payment is made . we use our employee and infrastructure resources across multiple research and development projects . we do not allocate employee-related expenses or depreciation to any particular project . because all of our development projects are in preclinical development , we do not track research and development costs by project . the components of our research and development costs are described in more detail in `` ย—results of operations . `` we anticipate that our research and development expenses will increase significantly in future periods as we increase the scope and rate of our drug discovery efforts and begin costlier development activities , including clinical trials for our current and additional product candidates in the future . the successful development of our product candidates is highly uncertain . at this time , we can not reasonably estimate or know the nature , timing and estimated costs of the efforts that will be necessary to complete development of our product candidates or the period , if any , in which material net cash inflows from our product candidates may commence . this is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing drugs , including the uncertainty of : the scope , rate of progress and expense of our drug discovery efforts and other research and development activities ; the potential benefits of our product candidates over other therapies ; our ability to market , commercialize and achieve market acceptance for any of our product candidates that we are developing or may develop in the future ; clinical trial results ; the terms and timing of regulatory approvals ; and the expense of filing , prosecuting , defending and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights . a change in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development of a product candidate could mean a significant change in the costs and timing associated with the development of that product candidate . for example , if the fda or other regulatory authority were to require us to conduct clinical trials beyond those which we currently anticipate will be required for the completion of clinical development of a product candidate or if we experience significant delays in enrollment in any clinical trials , we could be required to expend significant additional financial resources and time on the completion of clinical development . 75 general and administrative expenses general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for personnel , including stock-based compensation expense , in our executive , finance and business development functions . other general and administrative expenses include allocated facility costs and professional fees for legal , patent , investor and public relations , consulting , insurance premiums , and accounting services . interest income prior to september 30 , 2011 , our cash and cash equivalents were invested in non-interest-bearing accounts . as a result , we did n't earn interest income until the last three months of 2011. accretion of preferred stock prior to the conversion of our preferred stock into 11,740,794 shares of common stock upon the closing of our initial public offering in february 2012 , our preferred stock was redeemable beginning in 2016 at its original issue price plus any declared but unpaid dividends upon a specified vote of the preferred stockholders . accretion of preferred stock reflects the periodic accretion of issuance costs on our preferred stock to its redemption value . critical accounting policies and significant judgments and estimates our management 's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements , which we have prepared in accordance with u.s. generally accepted accounting principles . the preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets , liabilities and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements . on an ongoing basis , we evaluate our estimates and judgments , including those related to accrued expenses and stock-based compensation described in greater detail below . we base our estimates on our limited historical experience , known trends and events and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances , the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources . actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions . story_separator_special_tag to the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities , the ownership 82 interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted , and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our existing stockholders . debt financing , if available , may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions , such as incurring additional debt , making capital expenditures or declaring dividends . if we raise additional funds through collaborations , strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties , we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies , future revenue streams , research programs or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us . if we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings when needed , we may be required to delay , limit , reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves . contractual obligations and commitments the following table summarizes our contractual obligations at december 31 , 2012.

of $ 480,000 per year beginning in 2017 , as well as reimburse certain patent costs incurred by the licensors , as applicable . we have not included maintenance fees in the table above since the minimum annual payments are perpetual and the agreements are cancelable by us at any time upon prior written notice to the licensor . in july 2012 , we entered into a license agreement with pfizer inc. , ( `` pfizer `` ) , under which pfizer granted us worldwide , exclusive rights to research , develop , manufacture and commercialize products containing certain of pfizer 's inhibitors of focal adhesion kinase ( the `` products `` ) for all therapeutic , diagnostic and prophylactic uses in humans . we have the right to grant sublicenses under the foregoing licensed rights , subject to certain restrictions . we are solely responsible , at our own expense , for the clinical development of the products , which is to be conducted in accordance with an agreed-upon development plan . we are also responsible for all manufacturing and commercialization activities at our own expense . pfizer is required to provide us with an initial quantity of clinical supply of one of the products for an agreed upon price . we made a one-time cash payment to pfizer in the amount of $ 1.5 million and issued to pfizer 192,012 shares of our common stock . pfizer is also eligible to receive up to $ 2 million in developmental milestones and up to an additional $ 125 million based on the successful attainment of regulatory and commercial sales milestones . pfizer is also eligible to receive high single to mid double digit royalties on future net sales of products . our royalty obligations with respect to each product in each country begin on the date of first commercial sale of the product in that country , and end on the later of 10 years after the date of first commercial sale of the product in that country or the date of expiration or abandonment of the last claim contained in any issued patent or patent application licensed by pfizer to us that covers the product in that country . under our drug discovery platform license agreement , which we amended and restated in january 2012 , we also have agreed to make milestone payments to the whitehead institute upon achieving various development , regulatory and commercialization milestones . for each licensed product , we agreed to make milestone payments of up to an aggregate of $ 1,560,000 plus an additional amount for 83 each subsequent approval of additional indications for a maximum number of licensed products . for each identified product that is not a licensed product , we agreed to make milestone payments of up to an aggregate of $ 815,000 plus an additional amount for each subsequent approval of additional indications for a maximum number of identified products . each type of specified milestone payment is payable only for each of the maximum number of licensed products and the maximum number of identified products , as the case may be , to achieve the applicable milestone . in addition , a separate milestone payment is due upon the first commercial sale of each licensed product or identified product that is a diagnostic or prognostic test . a single additional milestone payment is due for the first issuance of licensed patent rights in the united states , the united kingdom , france , germany , spain or italy . in addition , we have agreed to pay the whitehead institute royalties as a percentage of net sales of licensed products . the royalty rate is in the low single digits as a percentage of net sales for licensed products that are therapeutics , the mid single digits for licensed products that are diagnostics or prognostics and less than one percent for identified products . under our license agreement with poniard pharmaceuticals , inc. , or poniard , that we entered into in november 2011 relating to vs-4718 and vs-5095 and other compounds covered by a licensed patent right under that agreement that have the inhibition of focal adhesion kinase as a primary mode of action , we paid an upfront license fee and agreed to pay poniard milestone

similar expressions to identify our forward-looking statements , which include , among other things , our anticipated revenue and cost of our agency and investment business . because we are unable to

outside our control . these factors include but are not limited to fluctuating market demand for our services , and general economic conditions . recently adopted accounting standards in june 2016 , the financial accounting standards board ( fasb ) issued a new accounting standard that amends the guidance for measuring and recording credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost by replacing the incurred-loss model with an expected-loss model . accordingly , these financial assets are now presented at the net amount expected to be collected . this new standard also requires that credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities be recorded as an allowance through net income rather than reducing the carrying amount under the former other-than-temporary-impairment model . we adopted this standard as of january 1 , 2020 , using a modified-retrospective approach . adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements .

the subsidy is given to reimburse the land acquisition costs and certain construction costs incurred for the company 's property development project and are repayable if the company fails to complete the subsidized property development project by the agreed date . the company recorded the subsidy received as a deferred government subsidy results of operations we provide the following discussion and analyses of our changes in financial condition and results of operations for the year ended december 31 , 20 20 with comparisons to the historical year ended december 31 , 2019. net revenues the following table shows the detail for net revenues by line of business : replace_table_token_4_th the net revenue for 20 20 was $ 5,891,568 , a decrease of 82 % from $ 32,989,778 in 2019. in 2020 , property management and house sales represented 18 % , and 82 % of our total net revenue . the decrease in 2020 was mainly due to the net revenue recognized for the gxl project in 2019 and less recognized in amount of the linyi project in 2020. agency sales in 20 20 , there are no net revenues of agency sales . as compared with 2019 , net revenue of agency sales in 2020 decreased by 100 % . the decrease was mainly due to non-sales collection of projects during this year . government policies enacted in 2018 as well as similar subsequent policies aiming to stabilize real estate prices affected many businesses in the real estate industry . these restrictive policies had a substantial effect in our real estate sales revenue . we are continually seeking stable growth in our real estate sales business in 202 1. however , there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so . property management property management represented 18 % of our revenue in year of 2020 and revenue from property management increased by 82 % compared with 2019 . 23 house sales house sales represented 82 % of our revenue in year of 2020. the company has recognized a proportion of net revenue from

% from $ 26,811,115 for 2019. in 2020 , property management and house sales represented 32 % , and 68 % of total cost of revenues . the decrease in cost of revenues is mainly due to the recognition of cost of revenue of house sales from the gxl project in 2019 and less in amount of the linyi project recognized in 2020. agency sales in 20 20 , there was no cost of net revenues of agency sales . as compared with 2019 , the cost decreased by 100 % . the decrease was mainly due to no sales project operation of projects during this year . property management the cost of revenue from property management for 20 20 was $ 1,705,765 , an increase from $ 1,256,678 for 2019. house sales house sales represented 68 % of our cost of revenue in year of 2020. the company has recognized its cost of

there is some seasonality in the businesses within our cequent reportable segments , primarily within cequent americas , where sales of towing and trailering products are generally stronger in the second and third quarters , as trailer original equipment manufacturers ( `` oems `` ) , distributors and retailers acquire product for the spring and summer selling seasons . no other reportable segment experiences significant seasonal fluctuation . we do not consider sales order backlog to be a material factor in our business . a growing portion of our sales are derived from international sources , which exposes us to certain risks , including currency risks . the demand for some of our products , particularly in our two cequent reportable segments , is heavily influenced by consumer sentiment . despite the sales increases in the past few years , we recognize that consumer sentiment and the end market conditions remain unstable , primarily for cequent americas , given continued uncertainties in employment levels and consumer credit availability , both of which significantly impact consumer discretionary spending . 26 we are sensitive to price movements in our raw materials supply base . our largest material purchases are for steel , copper , aluminum , polyethylene and other resins and energy . historically , we have experienced increasing costs of steel and resin and have worked with our suppliers to manage cost pressures and disruptions in supply . we also utilize pricing programs to pass increased steel , copper , aluminum and resin costs to customers . although we may experience delays in our ability to implement price increases , we have been generally able to recover such increased costs , except for certain circumstances , primarily within cequent americas during 2011 , where we intentionally kept selling prices constant for certain customers despite material price increases to earn incremental sales . we may experience disruptions in supply in the future and may not be able to pass along higher costs associated with such disruptions to our customers in the form of price increases . we report shipping and handling expenses associated with our cequent americas reportable segment 's distribution network as an element of selling , general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statement of operations . as such , gross margins for the cequent americas reportable segment may not be comparable to those of our other reportable segments , which primarily rely on third party distributors , for which all costs are included in cost of sales . 27 segment information and supplemental analysis the following table summarizes financial information for our six reportable segments : replace_table_token_4_th 28 replace_table_token_5_th results of operations year ended december 31 , 2013 compared with year ended december 31 , 2012 the principal factors impacting us during the year ended december 31 , 2013 , compared with the year ended december 31 , 2012 were : the impact of our various acquisitions during 2013 and 2012 ( see below for the impact by reportable segment ) ; market share gains and increased demand in certain of our reportable segments in 2013 ; continued economic strength in certain of the markets our businesses serve in 2013 compared to 2012 , contributing to increased net sales in five of six of our reportable segments ; the sale of our business in italy within the packaging reportable segment , for which we recorded a pre-tax gain of approximately $ 10.5 million ; our equity offering during 2013 , where we issued 5,175,000 shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $ 174.7 million ; footprint consolidation and relocation projects within our cequent americas reportable segments , under which we incurred approximately $ 25.6 million of severance , unrecoverable future lease obligation , manufacturing inefficiency , facility move and duplicate costs during 2013 , as compared to $ 7.5 million of such costs during 2012 ; and entry into our new credit agreement ( `` credit agreement `` ) in 2013 , as compared to the refinance and our former amended and restated credit agreement completed in 2012. overall , net sales increased approximately $ 122.0 million , or approximately 9.6 % , to $ 1.39 billion in 2013 , as compared to $ 1.27 billion in 2012 . during 2013 , net sales increased in all of our reportable segments except for engineered components . of the sales increase , approximately $ 83.9 million was due to our recent acquisitions . the remainder of the increase in sales levels between years was due to the impact of continued economic strength in certain of our end markets , primarily in our aerospace & defense , packaging and cequent americas reportable segments , our expansion in international markets , primarily in our packaging and cequent apea reportable segments and our new product introductions and related growth , primarily in our cequent americas and aerospace & defense reportable segments . these sales increases were partially offset by approximately $ 9.1 million of unfavorable currency exchange , as our reported results in u.s. dollars were negatively impacted as a result of the stronger u.s. dollar relative to foreign currencies , primarily in our energy and cequent apea reportable segments . gross profit margin ( gross profit as a percentage of sales ) approximated 25.3 % and 27.0 % in 2013 and 2012 , respectively . the gross profit margin in our packaging reportable segment increased as compared to 2012 , primarily due to improvements in manufacturing productivity related to labor efficiencies and automation and a reduction in purchase accounting charges from 2012 levels . gross profit margins in our other reportable segments were flat or declined , with the most significant driver being the manufacturing facility footprint consolidation and relocation projects in our cequent americas reportable segment , where we recorded incremental charges of approximately $ 16.5 million during 2013 compared to 2012 . story_separator_special_tag these increases were partially offset by reductions in legal fees associated with the anti-dumping claim in 2012 within our industrial cylinder business . operating profit within engineered components decreased approximately $ 8.5 million to $ 19.5 million , or 10.5 % of sales , in 2013 , as compared to $ 28.0 million , or 14.0 % of sales , in 2012 , primarily due to the lower sales levels between years , lower fixed cost absorption and less favorable product sales mix in our engine business , which was partially offset by sales increases and productivity initiatives in the industrial cylinder business . 32 cequent apea . net sales increased approximately $ 23.0 million , or 17.9 % , to $ 151.6 million in 2013 , as compared to $ 128.6 million in 2012 . the acquisitions of c.p . witter limited ( `` witter `` ) , in april 2013 , the towing technology and business assets of al-ko , in july 2013 , and the full year effect of the acquisition of trail com limited ( `` trail com `` ) , in july 2012 , contributed approximately $ 29.0 million of incremental sales . additionally , we realized additional sales due to new asian-based business awards . partially offsetting these increases were lower customer demand in australia as a result of political and economic conditions during the second half of 2013 and the negative impact of currency exchange of approximately $ 7.3 million , as our reported results in u.s. dollars were negatively impacted as a net result of the stronger u.s. dollar relative to foreign currencies . cequent apea 's gross profit increased approximately $ 4.7 million to $ 30.8 million , or 20.3 % of net sales in 2013 , from approximately $ 26.1 million , or 20.3 % of net sales , in 2012 , primarily due to higher sales levels . gross profit margin increased due to efficiencies gained in our new australian facility following the completion of the consolidation of two manufacturing facilities into one new facility during 2012 and productivity gains in our asian plants . however , this increase in margin was essentially offset by the combination of a less favorable product sales mix , as the newly acquired businesses have lower margins than the legacy business , and approximately $ 0.8 million of incremental purchase accounting-related adjustments associated with the step-up in value and subsequent amortization of inventory in connection with our 2013 acquisitions compared to the 2012 acquisition of trail com . cequent apea 's selling , general and administrative expenses increased approximately $ 5.0 million to $ 18.9 million , or 12.5 % of sales in 2013 , as compared to $ 13.9 million , or 10.8 % of sales in 2012 , primarily as a result of sales increases and in support of our growth initiatives , including approximately $ 2.8 million of normal operating selling , general and administrative costs related to witter and al-ko , as well as increased legal and professional diligence costs of approximately $ 1.1 million associated with completion of our european acquisitions . cequent apea 's operating profit increased approximately $ 1.6 million to $ 13.9 million , or 9.2 % of sales , in 2013 , from $ 12.3 million , or 9.6 % of net sales in 2012 . operating profit increased primarily due to higher sales levels as well as a $ 2.1 million gain on the sale of a facility in australia . operating profit margin decreased in 2013 as compared to 2012 , as the margin impact of the facility efficiency gains was more than offset by the less favorable product sales mix and incremental costs associated with our recent acquisitions . cequent americas . net sales increased approximately $ 36.9 million , or 9.2 % , to $ 437.3 million in 2013 , as compared to $ 400.4 million in 2012 , primarily due to year-over-year increases within our retail , auto original equipment ( `` oe `` ) and aftermarket channels . net sales within our retail channel increased by approximately $ 17.4 million , primarily due to increased demand from existing customers associated with new towing accessory and ramp products , growth in internet sales as well as the recent acquisition of our broom and brush product line . sales within our oe channel increased approximately $ 12.4 million due to increased oem build rates and new business awards . sales within our aftermarket channel increased approximately $ 8.8 million , predominately due to strength in the recreational vehicle and oe aftermarket subcategories and due to our july 2012 acquisition of engetran engenharia , indรบstria , e comรฉrcio de peรงas e acessรณrios veiculares ltda ( `` engetran `` ) and our november 2013 acquisition of dhf soluรงรตes automotivas ltda ( `` dhf `` ) , which combined generated approximately $ 4.6 million in incremental revenue . these increases were partially offset by a decrease of $ 1.9 million in our industrial channel , primarily due to an overall decrease in agricultural and industrial trailer production as well as the rationalization of certain lower margin electrical and lighting products . cequent americas ' gross profit decreased approximately $ 10.3 million to $ 94.2 million , or 21.5 % of sales , in 2013 , from approximately $ 104.5 million , or 26.1 % of sales , in 2012 . the profit generated from the increase in sales during 2013 was more than offset by approximately $ 15.4 million of incremental costs associated with our announced closure of our goshen , indiana manufacturing facility and relocation of the production therefrom to our lower cost country facilities . the largest costs related to the facility closure were approximately $ 4.6 million of estimated future unrecoverable lease obligations on the goshen facility and $ 4.0 million of employee severance costs primarily associated with the hourly employees . the remainder of the costs related to inefficiencies

subscription licenses is recognized monthly as the services are delivered . digital e ngagement services digital engagement services include professional services primarily related to the company 's web development solutions that address specific customer needs such as digital strategy , information architecture and usability engineering , .net development , rich media development , back end integration , search engine optimization , quality assurance and project management . digital engagement services are contracted for on either a fixed price or time and materials basis . for its fixed price engagements , after assigning the relative selling price to the elements of the arrangement , the company applies the proportional performance model ( if not subject to contract accounting ) to recognize revenue based on cost incurred in relation to total estimated cost at completion . the company has determined that labor costs are the most appropriate measure to allocate revenue among reporting periods , as they are the primary input when providing application development services . customers are invoiced monthly or upon the completion of milestones . for milestone based projects , since milestone pricing is based on expected hourly costs and the duration of such engagements is relatively short , this input approach principally mirrors an output approach under the proportional performance model for revenue recognition on such fixed priced engagements . for time and materials contracts , revenues are recognized as the services are provided . digital engagement services also include retained professional services contracted for on an โ€œ on call โ€ basis or for a certain number of hours each month . such arrangements generally provide for a guaranteed availability of a number of professional services hours each month on a โ€œ use it or lose it โ€ basis . for retained professional services sold on a stand-alone basis the company recognizes revenue as the services are delivered or over the term of the contractual retainer period . these arrangements do not require formal customer acceptance and do not grant any future right to labor hours contracted for but not used . subscriptions and pe rpetual licenses the company licenses its software on either a perpetual or subscription basis . customers who license the software on a perpetual basis receive rights to use the software for an indefinite time period and an option to purchase post-customer support ( โ€œ pcs โ€ ) . for arrangements that consist of a perpetual license and pcs , as long as vendor specific objective evidence ( โ€œ vsoe โ€ ) exists for the pcs , then pcs revenue is recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the period of performance and the perpetual license is recognized on a residual basis . under the residual method , the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is allocated to the delivered elements and recognized as revenue , assuming all other revenue recognition criteria have been met . customers may also license the software on a subscription basis , which can be described as โ€œ software as a service โ€ or โ€œ saas โ€ . saas is a model of software deployment where an application is hosted as a service provided to customers across the internet . subscription agreements include access to the company 's software application via an internet connection , the related hosting of the application , and pcs . customers receive automatic updates and upgrades , and new releases of the products as soon as they become available . customers can not take possession of the software . subscription agreements are either annual or month-to-month arrangements that provide for termination for convenience by either party upon 90 days ' notice . revenue is recognized monthly as the services are delivered . set up fees paid by customers in connection with subscription services are deferred and recognized ratably over the longer of the life of subscription period or the expected lives of customer relationships . the company continues to evaluate the length of the amortization period of the set up fees as it gains more experience with customer contract renewals . 28 managed service hosting managed service hosting includes hosting arrangements that provide for the use of certain

over 3,000 active customers . for the year ended september 30 , 2017 , two customers each represented approximately 12 % of the company 's total revenue . for the year ended september 30 , 2016 , one customer represented approximately 10 % of the company 's total revenue . story_separator_special_tag revenue from perpetual licenses sold through resellers is recognized upon delivery to the end user as long as evidence of an arrangement exists , collectability is probable , and the fee is fixed and determinable . revenue for subscription licenses is recognized monthly as the services are delivered . digital e ngagement services digital engagement services include professional services primarily related to the company 's web development solutions that address specific customer needs such as digital strategy , information architecture and usability engineering , .net development , rich media development , back end integration , search engine optimization , quality assurance and project management . digital engagement services are contracted for on either a fixed price or time and materials basis . for its fixed price engagements , after assigning the relative selling price to the elements of the arrangement , the company applies the proportional performance model ( if not subject to contract accounting ) to recognize revenue based on cost incurred in relation to total estimated cost at completion . the company has determined that labor costs are the most appropriate measure to allocate revenue among reporting periods , as they are the primary input when providing application development services . customers are invoiced monthly or upon the completion of milestones . for milestone based projects , since milestone pricing is based on expected hourly costs and the duration of such engagements is relatively short , this input approach principally mirrors an output approach under the proportional performance model for revenue recognition on such fixed priced engagements . for time and materials contracts , revenues are recognized as the services are provided . digital engagement services also include retained professional services contracted for on an โ€œ on call โ€ basis or for a certain number of hours each month . such arrangements generally provide for a guaranteed availability of a number of professional services hours each month on a โ€œ use it or lose it โ€ basis . for retained professional services sold on a stand-alone basis the company recognizes revenue as the services are delivered or over the term of the contractual retainer period . these arrangements do not require formal customer acceptance and do not grant any future right to labor hours contracted for but not used . subscriptions and pe rpetual licenses the company licenses its software on either a perpetual or subscription basis . customers who license the software on a perpetual basis receive rights to use the software for an indefinite time period and an option to purchase post-customer support ( โ€œ pcs โ€ ) . for arrangements that consist of a perpetual license and pcs , as long as vendor specific objective evidence ( โ€œ vsoe โ€ ) exists for the pcs , then pcs revenue is recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the period of performance and the perpetual license is recognized on a residual basis . under the residual method , the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is allocated to the delivered elements and recognized as revenue , assuming all other revenue recognition criteria have been met . customers may also license the software on a subscription basis , which can be described as โ€œ software as a service โ€ or โ€œ saas โ€ . saas is a model of software deployment where an application is hosted as a service provided to customers across the internet . subscription agreements include access to the company 's software application via an internet connection , the related hosting of the application , and pcs . customers receive automatic updates and upgrades , and new releases of the products as soon as they become available . customers can not take possession of the software . subscription agreements are either annual or month-to-month arrangements that provide for termination for convenience by either party upon 90 days ' notice . revenue is recognized monthly as the services are delivered . set up fees paid by customers in connection with subscription services are deferred and recognized ratably over the longer of the life of subscription period or the expected lives of customer relationships . the company continues to evaluate the length of the amortization period of the set up fees as it gains more experience with customer contract renewals . 28 managed service hosting managed service hosting includes hosting arrangements that provide for the use of certain hardware and infrastructure for those customers who do not wish to host our applications independently . hosting agreements are either annual or month-to-month arrangements that provide for termination for convenience by either party generally upon 30-days ' notice . revenue is recognized monthly as the hosting services are delivered . set up fees paid by customers in connection with managed hosting services are deferred and recognized ratably over the life of the hosting period . m ultiple element arrangements in accounting for multiple element arrangements , the company follows either asc topic 605-985 revenue recognition software or asc topic 605-25 revenue recognition multiple element arrangements , as applicable . in october 2009 , the fasb issued accounting standards update no . 2009-13 , revenue recognition : multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements ( โ€œ asu 2009-13 โ€ ) . asu 2009-13 provides amendments to certain paragraphs of previously issued asc subtopic 605-25 โ€“ revenue recognition : multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements . in accordance with asu 2009-13 , each deliverable within a multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement is accounted for as a separate unit of accounting if both of the following criteria are met ( 1 ) the delivered item has value to the customer on a standalone basis and ( 2 ) for an arrangement that includes a right of return relative to the delivered item , delivery or performance of the delivered

net revenues for the year ended december 31 , 2014 were $ 56.0 million compared to $ 30.1 million for the same period in 2013 , an increase of $ 25.9 million , or 86.1 % , primarily as a result of the following factors : ยท net revenues for generic pharmaceutical products were $ 35.9 million during the year ended december 31 , 2014 , an increase of 85.9 % compared to $ 19.3 million for the same period in 2013. the primary reason for the increase was a $ 13.8 million increase in sales of eemt , which was the result of increases in both market share and prices . in addition , we experienced increased sales for our opium tincture , hc enema , and fluvoxamine products . in the third quarter of 2013 , a significant competitor stopped producing eemt , which led to an increase in our market share and enabled us to significantly increase the price we charge for the product . however , in the first half of 2014 , the same competitor re-entered the market , which negatively impacted our eemt unit sales beginning in the second quarter of 2014 , which impact may continue in 2015. eemt revenues for the year ended december 31 , 2014 also were reduced by $ 3.9 million in charges related to price protection contract obligations . as described in item 1. business โ€“ government regulations โ€“ unapproved products , we market eemt and opium tincture without fda-approved ndas . the fda 's policy with respect to the continued marketing of unapproved products appears in the fda 's september 2011 compliance policy guide sec . 440.100 titled `` marketed new drugs without approved ndas or andas . `` under this policy , the fda has stated that it will follow a risk-based approach with regard to enforcement against marketing of unapproved products . the fda evaluates whether to initiate enforcement action on a case-by-case basis , but gives higher priority to enforcement action against products in certain categories , such as those with potential safety risks or that lack evidence of effectiveness . while we believe that , so long as we comply with applicable manufacturing standards , the fda will not take action against us under the current enforcement policy , we can offer no assurances that the fda will continue this policy or not take a contrary position with any individual product or group of products . our combined net revenues for these products for the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013 were $ 29.8 million and $ 14.6 million , respectively . 37 ยท net revenues for branded pharmaceutical products were $ 11.0 million during the year ended december 31 , 2014 , an increase of 226.7 % compared to $ 3.4 million for the same period in 2013. the primary reasons for the increase were $ 3.3 million of sales from our lithobid product , representing six months of sales and $ 4.4 million of sales from our vancocin product , representing five months of sales . the product rights to lithobid and vancocin were acquired during the third quarter of 2014. these increase were partially offset by a decrease in sales of reglan . ยท contract manufacturing revenues were $ 5.9 million during the year ended december 31 , 2014 , a decrease of 1.4 % compared to $ 6.0 million for the same period in 2013 , due to decreased orders from contract manufacturing customers during 2014. as described in item 1. business โ€“ government regulations โ€“ unapproved products , we contract manufacture a group of products on behalf of a customer that are marketed by that customer without an fda-approved nda . if the fda took enforcement action against such customer , the customer may be required to seek fda approval for the group of products or withdraw them from the market . our contract manufacturing revenues for the group of unapproved products for the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013 were $ 1.2 million and $ 2.0 million , respectively . ยท contract services and other income were $ 3.2 million during the year ended december 31 , 2014 , an increase of 124.8 % from $ 1.4 million for the same period in 2013 , due primarily to royalties received on sales of the authorized generic of vancocin , the product rights to which were acquired in the third quarter of 2014. this increase was partially offset by a $ 0.5 million non-recurring payment in december 2013 from teva in relation to the teva license agreement acquired in the merger , as well as decreased contract services . as described in item 1. business โ€“ government regulations โ€“ unapproved products , we receive royalties on the net sales of a group of contract-manufactured products , which are marketed by the customer without an fda-approved nda . if the fda took enforcement action against such customer , the customer may be required to seek fda approval for the group of products or withdraw them from the market . our royalties on the net sales of these unapproved products were $ 0.3 million for each of the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013. cost of sales ( exclusive of depreciation and amortization ) ( in thousands ) years ended december 31 , 2014 2013 change % change cost of sales ( excl . depreciation and amortization ) $ 11,473 $ 9,974 $ 1,499 15.0 % cost of sales consists of direct labor , including manufacturing and packaging , active and inactive pharmaceutical ingredients , freight costs , and packaging components . cost of sales does not include depreciation and amortization expense , which is reported as a separate component of operating expenses on our consolidated statements of operations . story_separator_special_tag for these services , revenue is recognized according to the terms of the agreement with the customer , which sometimes include substantive , measurable risk-based milestones , and when we have a contractual right to receive such payment , the contract price is fixed or determinable , the collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured , and we have no further performance obligations under the agreement . we recognized $ 3.2 million and $ 1.4 million of revenue related to contract services in 2014 and 2013 , respectively . our revenue recognition accounting methodologies contain uncertainties because they require management to make assumptions and to apply judgment to estimate the amount of discounts , rebates , promotional adjustments , price adjustments , returns , chargebacks , and other potential adjustments , which are accounted for as reductions to revenue . we make these estimates based on historical experience . we have not made any material changes to our revenue recognition policies during the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013. we believe it is unlikely that there will be a material change in the future estimates or assumptions used to measure estimates for discounts , rebates , promotional adjustments , price adjustments , returns , chargebacks , and other potential adjustments . however , if actual results were not consistent with our estimates , we could be exposed to losses or gains that could be material , as any changes to these estimates could cause an increase or decrease in revenue recognized during the year . for example , if there were a 10 % change to these adjustments throughout the year , net revenues and net income from continuing operations before benefit/ ( provision ) for income taxes for the year ended december 31 , 2014 would be affected by $ 4.7 million . accruals for chargebacks , rebates , returns and other allowances our generic and branded product revenues are typically subject to agreements with customers allowing chargebacks , medicaid rebates , product returns , dministrative fees , and other rebates and prompt payment discounts . we accrue for these items at the time of sale based on the estimates and methodologies described below . in the aggregate , these accruals , reflected as a decrease to gross sales , exceed 50 % of generic and branded gross product sales , reduce gross revenues to net revenues in the consolidated statements of operations , and are presented as current liabilities or reductions in accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets . we continually monitor and re-evaluate the accruals as additional information becomes available , which includes , among other things , updates to trade inventory levels , customer product mix , and trends in medicaid rebates experience . we make adjustments to the accruals at the end of each reporting period , to reflect any such updates to the relevant facts and circumstances . accruals are relieved upon receipt of payment from or issuance of credit to the customer , or payment of rebates and fees to customer and state medicaid programs . chargebacks as discussed in note 1 of item 8. consolidated financial statements , we estimate the amount of chargebacks based our actual historical experience . a number of factors influence current period chargebacks by impacting the average selling price ( โ€œ asp โ€ ) of products , including customer mix , negotiated terms , product sales mix , volume of off-contract purchases , and wholesale acquisition cost ( โ€œ wac โ€ ) . 45 we have not made any material changes to our policy for estimating chargeback accruals during the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013. we believe it is unlikely that there will be a material change in the future estimates or assumptions used to measure chargeback estimates . however , if actual results were not consistent with our estimates , we could be exposed to losses or gains that could be material , as changes to chargeback estimates could cause an increase or decrease in revenue recognized during the year and increase or decrease accounts receivable . if there were a 10 % change in the chargeback estimates throughout the year , our net revenues and net income from continuing operations before benefit/ ( provision ) for income taxes would be affected by $ 3.6 million for the year ended december 31 , 2014. medicaid rebates as discussed in note 1 of item 8. consolidated financial statements , our estimate for medicaid rebates is based upon our average manufacturer price , best price , product mix , levels of inventory in the distribution channel that we expect to be subject to medicaid rebates , and historical experience , which are invoiced in arrears by state medicaid programs . while such experience has allowed for reasonable estimation in the past , history may not always be an accurate indicator of future rebate experience , and trends in medicaid enrollment and which products are covered by medicaid could change . we have not made any material changes to our policy for estimating medicaid rebates during the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013. while we anticipate that we will have further increases in our quarterly medicaid rebate amounts related to sales of our lithobid and vancocin products , we do not believe that our assumptions used to measure estimates for medicaid rebates will change materially . however , if actual results were not consistent with our estimates , we could be exposed to losses or gains that could be material , as changes to medicaid rebate estimates could cause an increase or decrease in revenue recognized during the year and decrease or increase the medicaid rebate reserve . if there were a 10 % change in the medicaid rebate estimates throughout the year , our net revenues and net income from continuing operations before benefit/ ( provision ) for income taxes would be affected by $ 0.3 million for the

authorized generic of vancocin , the product rights to which were acquired in the third quarter of 2014. this increase was partially offset by a $ 0.5 million non-recurring payment in december 2013 from teva in relation to the teva license agreement acquired in the merger , as well as decreased contract services . as described in item 1. business โ€“ government regulations โ€“ unapproved products , we receive royalties on the net sales of a group of contract-manufactured products , which are marketed by the customer without an fda-approved nda . if the fda took enforcement action against such customer , the customer may be required to seek fda approval for the group of products or withdraw them from the market . our royalties on the net sales of these unapproved products were $ 0.3 million for each of the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013. cost of sales ( exclusive of depreciation and amortization ) ( in thousands ) years ended december 31 , 2014 2013 change % change cost of sales ( excl . depreciation and amortization ) $ 11,473 $ 9,974 $ 1,499 15.0 % cost of sales consists of direct labor , including manufacturing and packaging , active and inactive pharmaceutical ingredients , freight costs , and packaging components . cost of sales does not include depreciation and amortization expense , which is reported as a separate component of operating expenses on our consolidated statements of operations . story_separator_special_tag for these services , revenue is recognized according to the terms of the agreement with the customer , which sometimes include substantive , measurable risk-based milestones , and when we have a contractual right to receive such payment , the contract price is fixed or determinable , the collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured , and we have no further performance obligations under the agreement . we recognized $ 3.2 million and $ 1.4 million of revenue related to contract services in 2014 and 2013 , respectively . our revenue recognition accounting methodologies contain uncertainties because they require management to make assumptions and to apply judgment to estimate the amount of discounts , rebates , promotional adjustments , price adjustments , returns , chargebacks , and other potential adjustments , which are accounted for as reductions to revenue . we make these estimates based on historical experience . we have not made any material changes to our revenue recognition policies during the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013. we believe it is unlikely that there will be a material change in the future estimates or assumptions used to measure estimates for discounts , rebates , promotional adjustments , price adjustments , returns , chargebacks , and other potential adjustments . however , if actual results were not consistent with our estimates , we could be exposed to losses or gains that could be material , as any changes to these estimates could cause an increase or decrease in revenue recognized during the year . for example , if there were a 10 % change to these adjustments throughout the year , net revenues and net income from continuing operations before benefit/ ( provision ) for income taxes for the year ended december 31 , 2014 would be affected by $ 4.7 million . accruals for chargebacks , rebates , returns and other allowances our generic and branded product revenues are typically subject to agreements with customers allowing chargebacks , medicaid rebates , product returns , dministrative fees , and other rebates and prompt payment discounts . we accrue for these items at the time of sale based on the estimates and methodologies described below . in the aggregate , these accruals , reflected as a decrease to gross sales , exceed 50 % of generic and branded gross product sales , reduce gross revenues to net revenues in the consolidated statements of operations , and are presented as current liabilities or reductions in accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets . we continually monitor and re-evaluate the accruals as additional information becomes available , which includes , among other things , updates to trade inventory levels , customer product mix , and trends in medicaid rebates experience . we make adjustments to the accruals at the end of each reporting period , to reflect any such updates to the relevant facts and circumstances . accruals are relieved upon receipt of payment from or issuance of credit to the customer , or payment of rebates and fees to customer and state medicaid programs . chargebacks as discussed in note 1 of item 8. consolidated financial statements , we estimate the amount of chargebacks based our actual historical experience . a number of factors influence current period chargebacks by impacting the average selling price ( โ€œ asp โ€ ) of products , including customer mix , negotiated terms , product sales mix , volume of off-contract purchases , and wholesale acquisition cost ( โ€œ wac โ€ ) . 45 we have not made any material changes to our policy for estimating chargeback accruals during the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013. we believe it is unlikely that there will be a material change in the future estimates or assumptions used to measure chargeback estimates . however , if actual results were not consistent with our estimates , we could be exposed to losses or gains that could be material , as changes to chargeback estimates could cause an increase or decrease in revenue recognized during the year and increase or decrease accounts receivable . if there were a 10 % change in the chargeback estimates throughout the year , our net revenues and net income from continuing operations before benefit/ ( provision ) for income taxes would be affected by $ 3.6 million for the year ended december 31 , 2014. medicaid rebates as discussed in note 1 of item 8. consolidated financial statements , our estimate for medicaid rebates is based upon our average manufacturer price , best price , product mix , levels of inventory in the distribution channel that we expect to be subject to medicaid rebates , and historical experience , which are invoiced in arrears by state medicaid programs . while such experience has allowed for reasonable estimation in the past , history may not always be an accurate indicator of future rebate experience , and trends in medicaid enrollment and which products are covered by medicaid could change . we have not made any material changes to our policy for estimating medicaid rebates during the years ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013. while we anticipate that we will have further increases in our quarterly medicaid rebate amounts related to sales of our lithobid and vancocin products , we do not believe that our assumptions used to measure estimates for medicaid rebates will change materially . however , if actual results were not consistent with our estimates , we could be exposed to losses or gains that could be material , as changes to medicaid rebate estimates could cause an increase or decrease in revenue recognized during the year and decrease or increase the medicaid rebate reserve . if there were a 10 % change in the medicaid rebate estimates throughout the year , our net revenues and net income from continuing operations before benefit/ ( provision ) for income taxes would be affected by $ 0.3 million for the

plastics segment pricing is based on the cost of resin , colorant , fittings , labeling , labor , rent , freight , utilities and operating supplies , volume , order size , length of production runs and competition . generally , selling prices in the plastic packaging segment are periodically adjusted as the cost of resin fluctuates . typically , the price of our manufactured plastic segment products is higher for larger , more complex products . revenues in each of our segments are seasonal , reflecting a general pattern of lower sales and earnings in the metal and plastic packaging industry during the first quarter of our fiscal year when activity in several of our end markets , most notably the home improvement and repair sector , is generally slower . for example , in the first quarter of 2009 and 2008 net sales were approximately 24 % and 21 % of total net sales and gross profit was approximately 14 % and 16 % of total gross profit , respectively . these seasonal patterns cause our quarterly operating results and working capital requirements to fluctuate . page 26 index to financial statements our net sales are also impacted by the pass-through of price changes for steel and plastic resin as permitted in sales agreements with our customers . these sales agreements generally contain pass-through mechanisms by which we may recover raw material price increases , although the timing of the recovery may not coincide with when we incur the raw material cost and the amount of the recovery may not equal the increase in raw material costs . expenses our expenses primarily consist of : cost of products sold ( excluding depreciation and amortization ) . these expenses include raw materials , labor and benefits , rent , freight , utilities , repairs and maintenance , operating supplies and other direct and indirect costs associated with the manufacturing process . cost of products sold is primarily driven by the cost of these items , production volume and the mix of products manufactured . because we account for our inventories on a first-in-first-out ( ย“fifoย” ) basis , cost of products sold may significantly vary by period if there are fluctuations in the cost of our key raw materials ( steel and plastic resin ) . raw materials are further discussed below . depreciation and amortization . these expenses include depreciation of property , plant and equipment and amortization of identifiable intangible assets . depreciation expense is primarily driven by capital expenditures , offset by the reduction of assets that become fully depreciated and disposals of equipment . depreciation expense may also be affected by additional depreciation due to the shortening of useful lives in association with restructuring plans . amortization expense is primarily driven by the valuation of intangible assets resulting from acquisitions . restructuring . these expenses include costs related to closing redundant facilities and eliminating redundant positions . restructuring charges are typically driven by our initiatives to reduce our overall operating costs through facility consolidation and headcount reductions . the expenses include severance and termination benefits , rent and other holding costs on vacated facilities ( net of estimated or actual sublease revenue ) and costs associated with the removal of equipment . these expenses also include pension withdrawal liabilities related to the termination of employees participating in multiemployer pension plans . selling and administrative . these expenses include salaries and incentive compensation for corporate and sales personnel , professional fees , insurance , stock-based compensation expense , rent , bad debt expense and other corporate administrative costs . the primary drivers for selling and administrative expense are wage increases , inflation , regulatory compliance , stock-based compensation expense , performance-based incentive compensation and legal , accounting and other professional fees . interest . this expense includes interest accruing on our indebtedness and the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs . interest expense is affected by changes in average outstanding indebtedness ( including capital lease obligations ) and variable interest rates . due to immateriality , interest income is not shown separately and is netted with interest expense . the company primarily earns interest from cash on hand . other , net . these expenses include gains and losses from foreign currency transactions , gains and losses on the disposition of property , plant and equipment and other non-operating expenses . prior to the ipo in 2007 , other included financial advisory fees paid to a private equity firm that held a majority of the company 's stock . raw materials raw materials for the metal segment include tinplate , blackplate and cold rolled steel , various fittings , coatings , inks and compounds . historically , steel producers implemented annual price changes , generally at the beginning of the calendar year . however , as the cost to produce steel has become more volatile , our suppliers have begun to adjust their prices more frequently , either through price increases or surcharges . over the last four years there has page 27 index to financial statements been consolidation in the steel industry , and as a result our steel raw material purchases have been concentrated with the largest suppliers . over the past several years , steel pricing has increased more than historical levels due to increases in our steel producers ' cost of raw materials and strong global demand . raw materials for the plastics segment include resin , colorant and fittings . resin prices fluctuate periodically throughout the year , but have increased steadily over the past several years . we have generally been able to recover these raw material price increases through pass-through mechanisms in our sales agreements , although the timing of the recovery may not coincide with when we incur the raw material cost and the amount of the recovery may not equal the increase in raw material costs . story_separator_special_tag selling and administrative expense replace_table_token_12_th in 2009 , segment selling and administrative expenses declined primarily due to reduced spending related to our on-going cost reduction initiatives . in 2008 , the decrease in segment selling and administrative expense ( s & a ) for from 2007 was primarily due to lower bonus expense and spending in each of the segments . corporate undistributed expense in 2008 included a $ 1.0 million favorable adjustment related to a change in our estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts . the adjustment was partially offset by the write-off of $ 0.7 million in accounts receivable that became uncollectible following a customer filing for liquidation in bankruptcy . excluding the above adjustment in 2008 , corporate undistributed selling and administrative expenses decreased $ 1.1 million in 2009 primarily due to lower stock-based compensation expense related to modifications made in 2007 and lower professional fees , partially offset by higher performance based bonus expense , additional bad debt expenses associated with certain uncollectible accounts receivable and higher litigation expenses . corporate undistributed expense in 2007 included approximately $ 15.8 million of an initial public offering expenses consisting of an $ 8.0 million management bonus and $ 7.8 million of stock-based compensation expense associated with the accelerated vesting of certain stock options . because of the ipo in 2007 , the vesting criteria of certain options were modified , which resulted in additional stock-based compensation expense of $ 1.5 million in 2007 and $ 4.8 million in 2008. the increase in 2008 over 2007 is due to the timing of the modification , which occurred with the ipo in june 2007. see note 10 , share-based compensation , of notes to consolidated financial statements in item 8 , ย“financial statements and supplementary data.ย” excluding stock-based compensation and ipo related expenses , corporate undistributed expense increased approximately 13 % in 2008 over 2007. the increase in 2008 is primarily due to higher expenses associated with being a public company ( primarily board of director expenses and higher d & o insurance premiums ) , higher bonus expense and higher professional fees . the majority of bonus expense is based on the achievement of certain performance goals established by the board . senior management exceeded established goals in 2009 and , on average , met established goals in 2008. performance goals were not met in 2007. page 34 index to financial statements restructuring expense in the third quarter of 2009 , the board approved a plan to eliminate our operating divisions and restructure management in order to operate the company as a single entity . management believes the strength of the company 's current management team made the divisional structure unnecessary and

approximately $ 1.5 million in severance and benefits and approximately $ 0.9 million related to administrative office consolidation and employee relocations . in addition to the plan , we recorded approximately $ 0.7 million in 2009 for severance and benefits related to the elimination of certain other redundant positions . in addition , we recorded approximately $ 1.8 million in 2009 in

, 2011 , we entered into two separate agreements with gsk to acquire a total of 17 north american otc healthcare brands for $ 660.0 million in cash ( the `` gsk agreement `` ) . on january 31 , 2012 , we completed , subject to a post-closing inventory and apportionment adjustment , as defined in the gsk agreement , the acquisition of the gsk brands i , including the related contracts , trademarks , and inventory for $ 615.0 million in cash . the gsk brands i include , among other brands , bc , goody 's and ecotrin brands of pain relievers ; beano , gaviscon , phazyme , tagamet and fiber choice

acquisition of the debrox and gly-oxide brands in the united states , including the related contracts , trademarks and inventory , for $ 45.0 million in cash . both the gsk brands i and gsk brands ii are complementary to our existing otc healthcare portfolio . these acquisitions were also accounted for in accordance with the business combinations topic of the fasb asc 805. the purchase price of the gsk brands i and gsk brands ii was funded by cash provided by the issuance of long-term debt and additional bank borrowings , which are discussed further in note 10 to the consolidated financial statements in this annual report on form 10-k. in april 2012 , we received the post-closing inventory and apportionment adjustments , attributable to both gsk brands i and gsk brands ii , which required us to pay an additional $ 2.8 million to gsk , and in may 2012 we received a revised post-closing inventory and apportionment adjustment , attributable to gsk brands ii , which required us to pay an additional $ 0.2 million , for a total of $ 3.0 million , to gsk . 36 concurrent with the closing of the gsk brands i transaction , we entered into a transitional services agreement with gsk ( the โ€œ tsa โ€ ) , whereby gsk provided us with various services including marketing , operations , finance and other services from the gsk brands i acquisition date through june 30 , 2012 , with additional finance support through august 31 , 2012. as part of the tsa , gsk , among other things , shipped products , invoiced customers , collected from customers and paid certain vendors on our behalf . our initial costs under the tsa were approximately $ 2.5 million per month for the length of the agreement and were reduced during the service period as we removed certain services and transitioned those processes to us . we incurred $ 6.9 million in tsa costs for the year ended march 31 , 2013. pursuant to the tsa , we received on a monthly basis the amount owed to us for revenues and expenses , net of gsk 's tsa fees and inventory that gsk purchased on our behalf . the allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired is based on a valuation we performed to determine the fair value of such assets as of the acquisition date . the following table summarizes our allocation of the $ 663.0 million purchase price to the assets we acquired at the gsk brands i and gsk brands ii acquisition dates : replace_table_token_9_th transaction and other costs of $ 13.8 million associated with the gsk brands acquisition are included in general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for 2012. we recorded goodwill based on the amount by which the purchase price exceeded the fair value of assets acquired . the amount of goodwill deductible for tax purposes is $ 20.2 million . the fair value of the trade names is comprised of $ 556.9 million of non-amortizable intangible assets and $ 67.2 million of amortizable intangible assets . we are amortizing the purchased amortizable intangible assets on a straight-line basis over an estimated weighted average useful life of 19.3 years . the weighted average remaining life for amortizable intangible assets at march 31 , 2014 was 17.0 years . the operating results of the gsk brands i have been included in our consolidated financial statements from february 1 , 2012 , while the operating results of the gsk brands ii are included in our consolidated financial statements beginning april 1 , 2012. sale of the phazyme brand on october 31 , 2012 , we divested the phazyme gas treatment brand , which was a non-core otc brand that we acquired from gsk in january 2012. we received $ 21.7 million from the divestiture on october 31 , 2012 and the remaining $ 0.6 million on january 4 , 2013. the proceeds were used to repay debt . no significant gain or loss was recorded as a result of the sale . story_separator_special_tag as a result , any material changes to these assumptions could require us to record additional impairment in the future . the company has experienced revenue declines in regard to certain brands in its household cleaning segment during 2013 and 2012. adverse changes in the expected operating results and or unfavorable changes in other economic factors used to estimate fair values of these specific brands could result in a non-cash impairment charge in the future . goodwill as of march 31 , 2014 , we had 20 reporting units with goodwill , including six reporting units resulting from the acquisition of the gsk brands , and five reporting units resulting from the acquisition of the care pharma brands . as part of our annual test for impairment of goodwill , management estimates the discounted cash flows of each reporting unit , which is at the brand level , and one level below the operating segment level , to estimate their respective fair values . in performing this analysis , management considers the same types of information as listed below in regard to finite-lived intangible assets . future events , such as competition , technological advances and reductions in advertising support for our trademarks and trade names , could cause subsequent evaluations to utilize different assumptions . in the event that the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value , management would then be required to allocate the estimated fair value of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit as if the unit was acquired in a business combination , thereby revaluing the carrying amount of goodwill . 41 indefinite-lived intangible assets at each reporting period , management analyzes current events and circumstances to determine whether the indefinite life classification for a trademark or trade name continues to be valid . if circumstances warrant a change to a finite life , the carrying value of the intangible asset would then be amortized prospectively over the estimated remaining useful life . management tests the indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment by comparing the carrying value of the intangible asset to its estimated fair value . since quoted market prices are seldom available for trademarks and trade names such as ours , we utilize present value techniques to estimate fair value . accordingly , management 's projections are utilized to assimilate all of the facts , circumstances and expectations related to the trademark or trade name and estimate the cash flows over its useful life . in performing this analysis , management considers the same types of information as listed below in regard to finite-lived intangible assets . in a manner similar to goodwill , future events , such as competition , technological advances and reductions in advertising support for our trademarks and trade names , could cause subsequent evaluations to utilize different assumptions . once that analysis is completed , a discount rate is applied to the cash flows to estimate fair value . finite-lived intangible assets as mentioned above , when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable , management performs a review to ascertain the impact of events and circumstances on the estimated useful lives and carrying values of our trademarks and trade names . in connection with this analysis , management : reviews period-to-period sales and profitability by brand ; analyzes industry trends and projects brand growth rates ; prepares annual sales forecasts ; evaluates advertising effectiveness ; analyzes gross margins ; reviews contractual benefits or limitations ; monitors competitors ' advertising spend and product innovation ; prepares projections to measure brand viability over the estimated useful life of the intangible asset ; and considers the regulatory environment , as well as industry litigation . if analysis of any of the aforementioned factors warrants a change in the estimated useful life of the intangible asset , management will reduce the estimated useful life and amortize the carrying value prospectively over the shorter remaining useful life . management 's projections are utilized to assimilate all of the facts , circumstances and expectations related to the trademark or trade name and estimate the cash flows over its useful life . future events , such as competition , technological advances and reductions in advertising support for our trademarks and trade names , could cause subsequent evaluations to utilize different assumptions . in the event that the long-term projections indicate that the carrying value is in excess of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the intangible assets , management is required to record an impairment charge . once that analysis is completed , a discount rate is applied to the cash flows to estimate fair value . the impairment charge is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the intangible asset over fair value as calculated using the discounted cash flow analysis . impairment analysis we utilize the discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of our indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill and the undiscounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of our finite-lived intangible assets . this methodology is a widely-accepted valuation technique to estimate fair value utilized by market participants in the transaction evaluation process and has been applied consistently . in addition , we considered our market capitalization at march 31 , 2014 , as compared to the aggregate fair values of our reporting units , to assess the reasonableness of our estimates pursuant to the discounted cash flow methodology . as a result of our analysis , we did not record an impairment charge in 2014. based on our analysis , the aggregate fair value exceeded the carrying value by 53.1 % . one individual reporting unit 's fair value exceeded its carrying value by less than 10.0 % . the reporting unit 's associated carrying value of goodwill and intangible assets amounted to $ 0.8 million at march 31 ,

2013 through december 31 , 2013 to execute our strategic plan and fund operations . as of the date of this report , we have working capital sufficient to fund operations through june 30 , 2013. these factors raise substantial doubt about the company 's ability to continue as a going concern . between august 21 , 2012 and the date of this report we have generated proceeds of $ 3.0 million under the common stock purchase agreement with aspire capital fund llc ( ย“aspireย” ) including proceeds of $ 1.5 million on the sale 800,000 shares of our common stock subsequent to december 31 , 2012. we have the right , subject to the terms of the common stock purchase agreement , to cause aspire to acquire up to 3,231,096 shares for total gross proceeds not to exceed $ 20 million ( including the 2,019,696 shares issued or sold to aspire to date for $ 3.0 million ) , subject to daily dollar limitations and subject to the maximum dollar amount we can sell from time to time under our registration statement on form s-3 . we expect to sell additional shares under this agreement during 2013. we are also pursuing other opportunities to raise capital through the sale of our common stock or through other strategic initiatives . there can be no assurances that there will be adequate financing available to us on acceptable terms , or at all . if the company is unable to obtain additional financing , we may have to sell one or more of our programs or cease operations . we are currently focusing our development activities on mn-166 , an ibudilast-based drug candidate for the treatment of neurological disorders , and obtaining additional funding to advance clinical trial development of mn-221 , a novel , highly selective รŸ 2 -adrenergic receptor agonist being developed for the treatment of acute exacerbations of asthma and copd . including mn-166 and mn-221 and our other product development programs , we have acquired licenses to eight compounds for the development of ten product candidates which include clinical development for the treatment of acute exacerbations of asthma , ms and other central nervous system ( cns ) disorders , bronchial asthma , interstitial cystitis ( ic ) , solid tumor cancers , generalized anxiety disorders/insomnia , preterm labor and urinary incontinence . we entered into an agreement to form a joint venture company with zhejiang medicine co. , ltd. and beijing make-friend medicine technology co. , ltd. effective september 27 , 2011. the joint venture agreement 54 provides for the joint venture company , zhejiang sunmy bio-medical co. , ltd. ( ย“zhejiang sunmyย” ) , to develop and commercialize mn-221 in china . a sublicense will be required under which zhejiang sunmy will license mn-221 from us . in accordance with the joint venture agreement , in march 2012 we paid $ 680,000 for our 30 % interest in zhejiang sunmy . the other parties to the joint venture agreement provided funding for their combined 70 % interest . we have not entered into the sublicense of mn-221 with the joint venture company as of the date of this report . there is no assurance the sublicense will be executed and there is no assurance that zhejiang sunmy will be able to proceed with the development of mn-221 in china . a. zhejiang sunmy is a variable interest entity for which we are not the primary beneficiary as we do not have a majority of the board seats and we will not have power to direct or significantly influence the actions of the entity . we therefore account for the activities of zhejiang sunmy under the equity method whereby we absorb any loss or income generated by zhejiang sunmy according to our percentage ownership . at december 31 , 2012 we reflect a long-term asset on our consolidated balance sheet which represents our investment in zhejiang sunmy , net of our portion of any generated loss or income . upon completion of proof-of-concept phase 2 clinical trials , we intend to enter into strategic alliances with leading pharmaceutical or biotech companies who seek late stage product candidates , such as mn-221 , to support further clinical development and product commercialization . depending on decisions we may make as to further clinical development , we may seek to raise addition capital . we may also pursue potential partnerships and potential acquirers of license rights to our programs in markets outside the u.s. underwritten firm commitment public offering in march 2011 we completed a firm-commitment underwritten public offering of 2,750,000 units at a price to the public of $ 3.00 per unit

separable and were issued separately . on march 24 , 2011 , the underwriter exercised 50,666 units of its 412,500 unit overallotment . story_separator_special_tag if assets are considered to be impaired , the impairment recognized is the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets . recent accounting pronouncements in may 2011 , the financial accounting standards board , or fasb , issued updated accounting guidance that clarifies existing fair value measurements and disclosures , and eliminates differences between gaap and international financial reporting standards to make convergence guidance more understandable . this guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after december 15 , 2011. the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the company 's consolidated financial statements . 59 in september 2011 , the fasb , issued guidance to simplify how entities test for goodwill impairment . the updated guidance permits an assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit in which goodwill resides is less than its carrying value . for reporting units in which this assessment concludes it is more likely than not that the fair value is more than its carrying value , the updated guidance eliminates the requirement to perform further goodwill impairment testing . this new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after december 15 , 2011. the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the company 's consolidated financial statements . effective january 1 , 2012 , the company adopted guidance issued by the fasb , concerning presentation and disclosure only for the presentation of comprehensive ( loss ) income . the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the company 's consolidated financial position or results of operations , other than its impact on the presentation of comprehensive ( loss ) income . in august 2012 , the fasb issued updated guidance to 2011 guidance that permits an assessment of the qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit in which goodwill resides is less than its carrying value . this updated guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after september 15 , 2012 with early adoption permitted . the adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements .

and development expenses primarily related to a decrease of $ 3.4 million in spending on mn-221 primarily due to the completion of the cl-007 clinical trial in march 2012 , partially offset by an increase in spending of $ 1.3 million for our mn-221ย—cl-012 clinical trial , and decreases in unallocated employee compensation , occupancy and legal costs totaling $ 0.6 million . general and

denominated in foreign currencies . 60 interest expense interest expense for the year ended december 30 , 2011 was $ 1.6 million and consisted of interest on our debt under the effective interest method and write-off of debt related costs pursuant to the early repayment of our debt with oxford . in 2012 , we held no debt and had no interest expense . other income other income for the year ended december 31 , 2012 was approximately $ 25,000 , as compared to approximately $ 60,000 for the year ended december 31 , 2011. the decrease is due to a decrease in interest income on lower cash

the fda granted breakthrough therapy designation for bentracimab in april 2019. the european medicines agency , or the ema , granted bentracimab priority medicines , or prime , designation in february 2020. based on feedback from the fda , we intend to submit a biologics license application , or bla , for potential accelerated approval based on an interim analysis of the first approximately 100 patients treated in our reverse-it trial , targeting that approximately one half of patients enrolled have uncontrolled major or life-threatening bleeding and approximately one half require urgent surgery or an invasive procedure . after we submit our bla with data from the first 100 patients , we intend to complete the reverse-it trial and establish a post-approval registry in accordance with fda requirements . the committee for medicinal products for human use , or chmp , of the ema has also generally agreed with our proposed clinical development plan for bentracimab . we have enrolled more than half of the first approximately 100 patients needed to support our bla submission , nearly all of whom to date have required urgent surgery or an invasive procedure . we are attempting to accelerate enrollment of patients with uncontrolled major or life-threatening bleeding , including by working to increase the number of enrolling clinical trial sites in the united states , canada , and the european union as we believe that a broader site footprint will increase the probability of enrolling these patients . all of the first approximately 100 patients enrolled in the reverse-it trial will be measured against the same verifynow prutest biomarker described above . we expect to complete enrollment of the first 100 patients in the reverse-it trial in mid-2021 , and are targeting to submit our bla for bentracimab in mid-2022 , although those timelines could be impacted by the continued scope and duration of the covid-19 pandemic . we have a limited operating history . since

additional $ 42.9 million of clinical trial costs and other expenses . sfj will also provide up to an additional $ 30.0 million of funding upon the achievement of specified clinical development milestones with respect to our ongoing reverse-it trial of bentracimab . since our inception , we have incurred significant operating losses . our net loss was $ 98.6 million for the year ended december 31 , 2020. as of december 31 , 2020 , we had an accumulated deficit of $ 260.7 million . we expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future . we anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities , as we : continue our ongoing clinical trials of bentracimab and pemziviptadil , as well as initiate and complete additional clinical trials , as needed ; 79 seek to expand our geographical reach through the sfj agreement and the corresponding clinical development support fees that we will incur ; pursue regulatory approvals for bentracimab as a reversal agent for the antiplatelet drug ticagrelor and pemziviptadil for the treatment of pah ; develop pb6440 for treatment-resistant hypertension ; seek to discover and develop additional clinical and preclinical product candidates ; scale up our clinical and regulatory capabilities ; establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up external manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any product candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval , including bentracimab and pemziviptadil ; adapt our regulatory compliance efforts to incorporate requirements applicable to marketed products ; maintain , expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio ; hire additional clinical , manufacturing and scientific personnel ; add operational , financial and management information systems and personnel , including personnel to support our product development and possible future

terms of the biovectra agreement , biovectra has committed to maintaining capacity to manufacture an agreed number of batches of product each year , and we have committed to purchase a specified minimum number of batches of product per year , or the minimum annual commitment , although we are free to contract with third parties for the manufacture of bentracimab . we will pay a supply price per batch of product to be determined after the manufacturing process for the product is validated in accordance with the biovectra agreement , or validation , plus the cost of certain consumables , raw materials , and third-party testing . pursuant to the minimum annual commitments , we are obligated to purchase a minimum of ( i ) approximately $ 14.0 million of batches of product in years 2022 through 2023 , ( ii ) approximately $ 37.0 million of batches of product in 2024 , and ( iii ) approximately $ 48.0 million of batches of product in each of years 2025 through 2031. in the event we do not purchase the applicable minimum annual commitment in a given year , we will be obligated to make a payment to biovectra in an amount equal to the then-applicable supply price per batch multiplied by the difference between the minimum annual commitment for such year and the number of batches of product we actually purchased in such year , or the minimum shortfall payment , except in the event that biovectra was unable to deliver the number of batches ordered by us in such year . in the event of certain serious or extended failures by biovectra to supply product in the quantities ordered by us in a given year , our minimum annual commitment for such year ( and potentially one or more subsequent years ) will be subject to reduction , and our obligation to make a minimum shortfall payment for such year ( and potentially one or more subsequent years ) will be waived . we will have the right to reduce the minimum annual commitments for the year 2026 and subsequent years by up to a specified maximum percentage per year . further , if we are only able to obtain regulatory approval for products incorporating bentracimab in only one of the u.s. or europe , biovectra and we have agreed to discuss in good faith an amendment to the biovectra agreement to reflect decreased requirements for product and impacts to the supply price to reflect lower volume commitments . results of

the commencement , enrollment or results of the planned clinical trials of our product candidates or any future clinical trials we may conduct , or changes in the development status of our product candidates ; the timing and outcome of regulatory review of our product candidates ; our decision to initiate a clinical trial , not to initiate a clinical trial or to terminate an existing clinical trial ; changes in laws or regulations applicable to our product candidates , including but not limited to clinical trial requirements for approvals ;

factors that could cause or contribute to those differences include , but are not limited to , those identified below and those discussed above in the section entitled โ€œ 1a . risk factors . โ€ 18 overview our principal business is the manufacturing , distribution and marketing of physical medicine products and aesthetic products . we offer a broad line of medical equipment including therapy devices , medical supplies and soft goods , treatment tables and rehabilitation equipment . our line of aesthetic equipment includes aesthetic massage and microdermabrasion devices , as well as skin care products . our products are sold to and used primarily by physical therapists , chiropractors , sports medicine practitioners , podiatrists , plastic surgeons , dermatologists , aestheticians and other aesthetic services providers . our fiscal year ends on june 30. reference to fiscal year 2014 refers to the year ended june 30 , 2014. results of operations fiscal year 2014 compared to fiscal year 2013 net sales net sales in fiscal year 2014 were $ 27,444,223 , compared to $ 29,538,275 in fiscal year 2013. in fiscal year 2013 , we introduced the new solarisplus product line which significantly increased sales of manufactured capital devices during that period . in fiscal year 2014 , increased sales of our top-selling solarisplus therapy devices and new thermostim probe were offset by lower sales of certain medical products and supplies , including other manufactured modalities , metal treatment tables , exercise products , nutritional supplements and taping products . market conditions continued to deteriorate during the year due to the patient protection and affordable care act as amended by the health care and education reconciliation act , each enacted in march 2010 ( the โ€œ health care reform law โ€ ) . the health care reform law has had the effect of creating significant uncertainty relative to delivery of care and reimbursement . there has been a marked decline in the opening of new clinics and expansion of existing clinics in our marketplace which typically are a significant source of demand for our products โ€“ particularly the higher margin capital equipment products . the uncertainty surrounding the health care reform law has not only led to customers focusing more on controlling operating costs by reducing expenditures , but has also caused a reluctance to invest in new equipment and clinic upgrades . in addition to the impacts of the health care reform law , we continue to see slower economic recovery in some parts of the country as well as a temporary decrease in demand due to severe weather events during this past winter . with a currently shrinking market , it is necessary to implement strategies to increase market share . to accomplish that , management has undertaken efforts to ( i ) expand our distribution channels by adding several new dealers and sales representatives , and ( ii ) stimulate sales of the new dynatron thermostim probe and other new products . we may also consider the acquisition of other businesses and technology . the new thermostim probe delivers thermal ( hot and cold ) therapy and or electrotherapy in a targeted , attended treatment . because the probe is operated from the control console of the solarisplus units , we are seeing demand for solarisplus units rise commensurate with the demand for the thermostim probe . management believes that as healthcare reform progresses , uncertainty in our market will diminish , and demand for our products will begin to strengthen . sales of proprietary manufactured physical medicine products represented approximately 47 % and 46 % of total physical medicine product sales in fiscal years 2014 and 2013 , respectively . distribution of products manufactured by other suppliers accounted for the balance of our physical medicine product sales in those years . sales of manufactured aesthetic products in fiscal years 2014 and 2013 , represented approximately 86 % and 78 % of total aesthetic product sales , respectively , with distributed products making up the balance . the majority of our sales revenues come from the sale of physical medicine products , both manufactured and distributed . in fiscal years 2014 and 2013 , sales of physical medicine products accounted for 91 % of total sales in both years . chargeable repairs , billable freight revenue , aesthetic product sales and other miscellaneous revenue accounted for approximately 9 % of total revenues in both years . 19 gross profit gross profit totaled $ 10,020,372 , or 36.5 % of net sales , in fiscal year 2014 , compared to $ 11,086,602 , or 37.5 % of net sales , in fiscal year 2013. lower sales revenue generated during the year was the primary factor in the reduction in gross profit compared to the prior year period . in addition , a reduction in revenue from the phasing out of our stream software service contributed to the lower gross profit and gross margin percentage generated in the reporting periods . sales of stream services were approximately $ 7,765 in 2014 , compared to $ 108,100 in 2013. those sales were 100 % gross profit as they carried no associated cost of sale . loss of approximately $ 100,000 in gross profit from the termination of the stream program accounted for one third of the drop in gross profit percentage . the balance was attributable to product mix favoring lower margin supply products and slightly increased cost of sales for manufactured capital products . story_separator_special_tag this product line consists of four units : the dynatron solarisplus 709 , 708 , 706 , and 705. these attractive units provide our most advanced technology in combination therapy devices by adding phototherapy capabilities to enhanced electrotherapy and ultrasound combination devices . the dynatron solarisplus line of products features a tri-wave phototherapy probe and a tri-wave phototherapy pad . tri-wave phototherapy features infrared , red and blue wavelength light . the dynatron solaris tri-wave phototherapy pad is capable of treating large areas of the body via unattended infrared , red and blue wavelength phototherapy . the tri-wave phototherapy probe allows the practitioner to treat specific , targeted areas of the body in an attended treatment . as part of the solarisplus product line , we also introduced a display cart specifically designed for these units . the solarisplus line has become popular for its power and versatility . the units are capable of simultaneously powering five electrotherapy channels , ultrasound therapy , a phototherapy probe and phototherapy pad . no other device on the market offers such powerful simultaneous combination therapies . 24 the introduction of so many new products in the last two years marks the most productive two year period of new product introductions in our history . with most of the planned new products now released , r & d costs in 2014 cycled back to a lower level more in line with historical amounts . management is confident the investments made in r & d will yield long-term benefits and are important to assuring that we maintain our reputation in the industry for being an innovator and leader in product development . our product catalog not only includes our proprietary products previously discussed , but also our expansive offering of non-proprietary products ( approximately 13,000 skus ) to service the broader needs of our customers . it also provides an excellent sales tool for our sales representatives in the field and the foundation for our e-commerce platform . the catalog includes an online electronic version of the catalog that is incorporated into our e-commerce website . the catalog has been praised for its clarity and ease of use . over the past few years , consolidations in our market have changed the landscape of our industry 's distribution channels . at the present time , we believe that there remain only two companies with a national direct sales force selling proprietary and distributed products : dynatronics and patterson medical . all other distribution in our market is directed through catalog companies with a limited direct sales force , or through independent local dealers that have limited geographical reach . our national direct sales force consists of direct sales employees and independent sales representatives . in addition to these direct sales representatives , we continue to enjoy a strong relationship with scores of independent dealers . we believe we have the best trained and most knowledgeable sales force in the industry . we are actively seeking to expand our market penetration through increased distribution . to accomplish this , during fiscal year 2014 , for the first time in our history , we made available to all distributors and qualified sales persons , a family of proprietary combination therapy devices , the dynatron 25 series . the availability of these products is attracting new distributors and sales persons . in addition , where these sales persons have had limited or no access to premier lines like the dynatron solarisplus products , they are now able to access these products in certain geographical areas through the authorized sales representative or dealer who has the rights to the products in those territories . making these products more widely available is expected to increase our ability to expand distribution of not only our own proprietary products , but also those we distribute on behalf of other manufacturers . pursuit of national accounts , including group purchasing organizations ( gpo ) continues to be a strategic endeavor . during fiscal year 2014 , we signed an exclusive , sole-source agreement with amerinet , one of the five largest gpo 's in the united states , to supply medical products to their acute care and alternate care members . amerinet is one of the nation 's leading healthcare gpos , helping its members to reduce healthcare costs and improve healthcare quality . the three-year agreement with amerinet became effective july 1 , 2014. the prior vendor reported approximately $ 6,000,000 per year in sales to amerinet members . we do not expect that this contract will rise to that level for various reasons and we anticipate that it will take several months to ramp up sales under this contract . we expect that sales under this contract will gradually increase over the life of the contract to a rate of approximately $ 3,000,000 annually . in 2013 , we were successful in qualifying to be an approved vendor to the federal government , including the veterans administration hospitals and medical facilities associated with military installations . economic pressures from the recent recession in the united states have affected available credit that would facilitate large capital purchases , and have also reduced demand for discretionary services such as those provided by the purchasers of our aesthetic products . as a result , we reduced our expenses in the synergie department . we believe that our aesthetic devices remain the best value on the market and we are seeking innovative ways to market these products , including strategic partnerships , both domestic and international , to help enhance sales momentum . we have long believed that international markets present an untapped potential for growth and expansion . adding new distributors in several countries will be the key to this expansion effort . we remain committed to finding the most effective ways to expand our markets internationally . over the coming year , our efforts will be focused on partnering with key manufacturers and

the last two years marks the most productive two year period of new product introductions in our history . with most of the planned new products now released , r & d costs in 2014 cycled back to a lower level more in line with historical amounts . management is confident the investments made in r & d will yield long-term benefits and are important to assuring that we maintain our reputation in the industry for being an innovator and leader in product development . our product catalog not only includes our proprietary products previously discussed , but also our expansive offering of non-proprietary products ( approximately 13,000 skus ) to service the broader needs of our customers . it also provides an excellent sales tool for our sales representatives in the field and the foundation for our e-commerce platform . the catalog includes an online electronic version of the catalog that is incorporated into our e-commerce website . the catalog has been praised for its clarity and ease of use . over the past few years , consolidations in our market have changed the landscape of our industry 's distribution channels . at the present time , we believe that there remain only two companies with a national direct sales force selling proprietary and distributed products : dynatronics and patterson medical . all other distribution in our market is directed through catalog companies with a limited direct sales force , or through independent local dealers that have limited geographical reach . our national direct sales force consists of direct sales employees and independent sales representatives . in addition to these direct sales representatives , we continue to enjoy a strong relationship with scores of independent dealers . we believe we have the best trained and most knowledgeable sales force in the industry . we are actively seeking to expand our market penetration through increased distribution . to accomplish this , during fiscal year 2014 , for the first time in our history , we made available to all distributors and qualified sales persons , a family of proprietary combination therapy devices , the dynatron 25 series . the availability of these products is attracting new distributors and sales persons . in addition , where these sales persons have had limited or no access to premier lines like the dynatron solarisplus products , they are now able to access these products in certain geographical areas through the authorized sales representative or dealer who has the rights to the products in those territories . making these products more widely available is expected to increase our ability to expand distribution of not only our own proprietary products , but also those we distribute on behalf of other manufacturers . pursuit of national accounts , including group purchasing organizations ( gpo ) continues to be a strategic endeavor . during fiscal year 2014 , we signed an exclusive , sole-source agreement with amerinet , one of the five largest gpo 's in the united states , to supply medical products to their acute care and alternate care members . amerinet is one of the nation 's leading healthcare gpos , helping its members to reduce healthcare costs and improve healthcare quality . the three-year agreement with amerinet became effective july 1 , 2014. the prior vendor reported approximately $ 6,000,000 per year in sales to amerinet members . we do not expect that this contract will rise to that level for various reasons and we anticipate that it will take several months to ramp up sales under this contract . we expect that sales under this contract will gradually increase over the life of the contract to a rate of approximately $ 3,000,000 annually . in 2013 , we were successful in qualifying to be an approved vendor to the federal government , including the veterans administration hospitals and medical facilities associated with military installations . economic pressures from the recent recession in the united states have affected available credit that would facilitate large capital purchases , and have also reduced demand for discretionary services such as those provided by the purchasers of our aesthetic products . as a result , we reduced our expenses in the synergie department . we believe that our aesthetic devices remain the best value on the market and we are seeking innovative ways to market these products , including strategic partnerships , both domestic and international , to help enhance sales momentum . we have long believed that international markets present an untapped potential for growth and expansion . adding new distributors in several countries will be the key to this expansion effort . we remain committed to finding the most effective ways to expand our markets internationally . over the coming year , our efforts will be focused on partnering with key manufacturers and

the broader handymax segment , defined as dry bulk vessels between 40,000 to 65,000 dwt . supramaxes range in size from approximately 50,000 to 59,000 dwt , while ultramaxes dry bulk vessels range in size from approximately 60,000 to 65,000 dwt . these vessels have the cargo loading and unloading flexibility offered by their on-board cranes , while the cargo carrying capacity approaches that of panamax , which ranges in size between 75,000 and 83,000 dwt and which require onshore facilities to load and offload their cargoes . we believe that the cargo handling flexibility and cargo carrying capacity of the supramax/ultramax class makes it the preferred type of ship attractive to potential charterers . all 41 of our owned vessels , as of december 31 , 2016 , range in size between 48,000 and 64,000 dwt . we also have one logs-fitted handysize vessel on a long-term charter-in which is roughly 37,000 dwt in size . the supply of dry bulk vessels depends primarily on the level of the orderbook , the fleet age profile , and the operating efficiency of the existing fleet . as of december 2016 , 7 % of the world handymax fleet was 20 years or older , while the newbuilding orderbook stood at 10 % of the ( handymax ) on-the-water fleet . the 41 vessels in our operating fleet have an average age of approximately 8.7 years as of december 31 , 2016. the typical trading life of a handymax vessel is approximately 25 years . 59 the handymax market the dry bulk market was extremely challenged during 2016 due to elevated supply growth , especially during the first half of the year , and weak cargo demand , highlighted by reduced coal shipments to china and weather-related issues in brazil and australia that temporarily reduced iron ore output . the baltic supramax index ( โ€œ bsi โ€ ) , a dry bulk index based on 52,000 dwt vessels , averaged $ 6,235 for 2016 , a historic low . during 2016 , the bsi reached an all-time low of $ 2,544 in february and started to recover from there , averaging $ 5,795 for the second quarter , $ 7,064 for the third quarter , and $ 8,317 for the fourth quarter . the improvement in rates during the year was driven by increased demolition ( of older vessels ) , lower supply growth , and higher iron ore and coal flows into china . looking ahead , newbuilding deliveries for 2017 and beyond are expected to be significantly less than in recent prior years , with the orderbook currently standing at under 10 % of the existing fleet . within this figure , there is broad consensus that a meaningful number of these vessels will be delayed and or may never be built , given the state of construction of the vessels themselves and or financial situation in part due to an improving macroeconomic environment . drybulk trade , which tends to be correlated to global gdp , is expected to improve by over 2 % , driven by increased flows in iron ore , coal , and minor bulks . 60 critical accounting policies and estimates the discussion and

generally , success fees accrue at a set rate and are contractually due upon a change of control in the business . some debt securities have deferred interest whereby some portion of the interest payment is added to the principal balance so that the interest is paid , together with the principal , at maturity . this form of deferred interest is often called paid-in-kind ( ย“pikย” ) interest . 40 typically , our equity investments consist of common stock , preferred stock , limited liability company interests , or warrants to purchase the foregoing . often , these equity investments occur in connection with our original investment , recapitalizing a business , or refinancing existing debt . we are externally managed by our investment advisor , gladstone management corporation ( the ย“adviserย” ) , a securities and exchange commission ( ย“secย” ) registered investment adviser and an affiliate of ours , pursuant to an investment advisory and management agreement ( the ย“advisory agreementย” ) . the adviser manages our investment activities . we have also entered into an administration agreement ( the ย“administration agreementย” ) with gladstone administration , llc ( the ย“administratorย” ) , an affiliate of ours and the adviser , whereby we pay separately for administrative services . our shares of common stock and term preferred stock are traded on the nasdaq global select market ( ย“nasdaqย” ) under the trading symbols ย“gladย” and ย“gladp , ย” respectively . business environment the strength of the global economy and the u.s. economy in particular , continues to be uncertain and volatile . recently , we experienced the first u.s. government shutdown in 17 years along with a stalemate in the u.s. congress over whether to raise the debt ceiling . the u.s. government budget concerns remain until early 2014 when the u.s. congress will revisit the debt ceiling debate again . prior to this recent u.s. fiscal crisis , economic conditions generally appeared to be improving , albeit slowly , since the 2008 recession . we have continued to remain cautious about a long-term economic recovery . the impacts from the 2008 recession in general , and the resulting disruptions in the capital markets in particular , have had lingering effects on our liquidity options and increased our cost of debt and equity capital . many of our portfolio companies , as well as those small and medium-sized companies that we evaluate for investment , are still feeling the adverse impacts of these political and economic conditions , and if these conditions persist , it may affect their ability to repay our loans or engage in a liquidity event , such as a sale , recapitalization or initial public offering . these political and economic conditions could also disproportionately impact some of the industries in which we have invested , causing us to be more vulnerable to losses in our portfolio , which could cause the number of our non-performing assets to increase and the fair market value of our portfolio to decrease . in addition , there has been increased competitive pressure in the bdc and investment company marketplace for senior and senior subordinated debt , resulting in lower yields for increasingly riskier investments . we believe we are in a protracted economic recovery ; however , we do not know if market conditions will continue to improve or if adverse conditions will again intensify , and we do not know the full extent to which the inability of the u.s. government to address its fiscal condition in the near and long term will affect us . if market instability persists or intensifies , we may experience difficulty in raising capital . in summary , we believe that are in a protracted economic recovery , but that the recent u.s. fiscal crisis has temporarily suppressed that recovery . we do not know the full extent to which the impact of the lingering recessionary economic conditions will affect us or our portfolio companies . portfolio activity while conditions remain somewhat challenging in the marketplace , we are seeing a number of new investment opportunities that are consistent with our investment objectives and strategies . during the year ended september 30 , 2013 , we invested in 15 new proprietary and syndicate investments totaling $ 80.4 million ; however , we experienced a net contraction in our overall portfolio of three portfolio companies , primarily due to 14 portfolio companies paying off early during the year , for an aggregate of $ 79.6 million in unscheduled payoffs . subsequent to september 30 , 2013 , we invested $ 7.0 million in one new proprietary investment , as discussed under ย“ investment highlights .ย” in addition , in july 2012 , the sec granted us an exemptive order that expands our ability to co-invest with certain of our affiliates by permitting us , under certain circumstances , to co-invest with gladstone investment corporation ( ย“gladstone investmentย” ) and any future business development company or closed-end management investment company that is advised by the adviser ( or sub-advised by the adviser if it controls the fund ) or any combination of the foregoing subject to the conditions in the sec 's order . we believe this ability to co-invest will enhance our ability to further our investment objectives and strategies . we co-invested with gladstone investment in two new proprietary investmentsย—one in each of may and october 2013 , as discussed under ย“ investment highlights .ย” 41 regulatory compliance challenges in the current market are intensified for us by certain regulatory limitations under the code and the 1940 act , as well as contractual restrictions under the agreement governing our $ 137.0 million revolving line of credit ( our ย“credit facility , ย” described more fully under ย“ revolving credit facility ย” below ) that further constrain our ability to access the capital markets . to qualify to be taxed as a ric , we must distribute at least 90.0 story_separator_special_tag as of september 30 , 2012 , six portfolio companies were either fully or partially on non-accrual status with an aggregate debt cost basis of approximately $ 61.1 million , or 17.3 % of the cost basis of all debt investments in our portfolio . during the year ended september 30 , 2013 , we sold our investments in two portfolio companies that had been on non-accrual status , wrote off our investment in one portfolio company that had been on non-accrual status , and sold substantially all of the assets of one portfolio company that had been on non-accrual status . see ย“ overview ย– investment highlights ย” for more information . there were no portfolio companies that changed from accrual status to non-accrual during the year ended september 30 , 2013. other income for the years ended september 30 , 2013 and 2012 , consisted primarily of success fees , which we generally recognize when payment is received . during the year ended september 30 , 2013 , we received an aggregate of $ 1.7 million in success fees , which resulted from the early payoffs at par of westlake for $ 1.1 million in december 2012 and cmi for $ 0.6 million in september 2013. in addition , we received prepayment fees in the aggregate of $ 0.9 million during the year ended september 30 , 2013 , which resulted from the early payoffs of eight of our syndicate investments at par during the year . during the year ended september 30 , 2012 , we received an aggregate of $ 4.0 million in success fees , which resulted from the early payoffs at par of winchester electronics ( ย“winchesterย” ) for $ 1.2 million , global materials technologies ( ย“gmtย” ) for $ 1.1 million , rcs management holding co.

liquidity and capital resources operating activities our cash flows from operations generally come from the interest payments on debt securities that we receive from our portfolio companies , as well as cash proceeds received through repayments or sales of our investments . we utilize this cash primarily to pay interest payments on our credit facility , distributions to our stockholders , management fees to the adviser , and other operating expenses . net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended september 30 , 2013 , was $ 32.1 million as compared to $ 26.2 million for the year ended september 30 , 2012. the increase in cash from operating activities was primarily due to the increase in repayments on investments , partially offset by an increase in purchases of investments during the year ended september 30 , 2013. for the year ended september 30 , 2011 , net cash used in operating activities was $ 68.4 million , which was primarily driven by increased new investment activity during fiscal year 2011. as of september 30 , 2013 , we had loans to , syndicated participations in and or equity investments in 47 private companies , with an aggregate cost basis of approximately $ 332.3 million . as of september 30 , 2012 , we had loans to , syndicated participations in and or equity investments in 50 private companies , with an aggregate cost basis of approximately $ 365.0 million . the following table summarizes our total portfolio investment activity during the years ended september 30 , 2013 and 2012 : replace_table_token_21_th ( a ) pik interest is a non-cash source of income and is calculated at the contractual rate stated in a loan agreement and added to the principal balance of a loan .

capital resources operating activities our cash flows from operations generally come from the interest payments on debt securities that we receive from our portfolio companies , as well as cash proceeds received through repayments or sales of our investments . we utilize this cash primarily to pay interest payments on our credit facility , distributions to our stockholders , management fees to the adviser , and other operating expenses . net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended september 30 , 2013 , was $ 32.1 million as compared to $ 26.2 million for the year ended september 30 , 2012. the increase in cash from operating activities was primarily due to the increase in repayments on investments , partially offset by an increase in purchases of investments during the year ended september 30 , 2013. for the year ended september 30 , 2011 , net cash used in operating activities was $ 68.4 million , which was primarily driven by increased new investment activity during fiscal year 2011. as of september 30 , 2013 , we had loans to , syndicated participations in and or equity investments in 47 private companies , with an aggregate cost basis of approximately $ 332.3 million . as of september 30 , 2012 , we had loans to , syndicated participations in and or equity investments in 50 private companies , with an aggregate cost basis of approximately $ 365.0

of income and is calculated at the contractual rate stated in a loan agreement and added to the principal balance of a loan . ``` Suspicious Activity Report : generally , success fees accrue at a set rate and are contractually due upon a change of control in the business . some debt securities have deferred interest whereby some portion of the interest payment is added to the principal balance so that the interest is paid , together with the principal , at maturity . this form of deferred interest is often called paid-in-kind ( ย“pikย” ) interest . 40 typically , our equity investments consist of common stock , preferred stock , limited liability company interests , or warrants to purchase the foregoing . often , these equity investments occur in connection with our original investment , recapitalizing a business , or refinancing existing debt . we are externally managed by our investment advisor , gladstone management corporation ( the ย“adviserย” ) , a securities and exchange commission ( ย“secย” ) registered investment adviser and an affiliate of ours , pursuant to an investment advisory and management agreement ( the ย“advisory agreementย” ) . the adviser manages our investment activities . we have also entered into an administration agreement ( the ย“administration agreementย” ) with gladstone administration , llc ( the ย“administratorย” ) , an affiliate of ours and the adviser , whereby we pay separately for administrative services . our shares of common stock and term preferred stock are traded on the nasdaq global select market ( ย“nasdaqย” ) under the trading symbols ย“gladย” and ย“gladp , ย” respectively . business environment the strength of the global economy and the u.s. economy in particular , continues to be uncertain and volatile . recently , we experienced the first u.s. government shutdown in 17 years along with a stalemate in the u.s. congress over whether to raise the debt ceiling . the u.s. government budget concerns remain until early 2014 when the u.s. congress will revisit the debt ceiling debate again . prior to this recent u.s. fiscal crisis , economic conditions generally appeared to be improving , albeit slowly , since the 2008 recession . we have continued to remain cautious about a long-term economic recovery . the impacts from the 2008 recession in general , and the resulting disruptions in the capital markets in particular , have had lingering effects on our liquidity options and increased our cost of debt and equity capital . many of our portfolio companies , as well as those small and medium-sized companies that we evaluate for investment , are still feeling the adverse impacts of these political and economic conditions , and if these conditions persist , it may affect their ability to repay our loans or engage in a liquidity event , such as a sale , recapitalization or initial public offering . these political and economic conditions could also disproportionately impact some of the industries in which we have invested , causing us to be more vulnerable to losses in our portfolio , which could cause the number of our non-performing assets to increase and the fair market value of our portfolio to decrease . in addition , there has been increased competitive pressure in the bdc and investment company marketplace for senior and senior subordinated debt , resulting in lower yields for increasingly riskier investments . we believe we are in a protracted economic recovery ; however , we do not know if market conditions will continue to improve or if adverse conditions will again intensify , and we do not know the full extent to which the inability of the u.s. government to address its fiscal condition in the near and long term will affect us . if market instability persists or intensifies , we may experience difficulty in raising capital . in summary , we believe that are in a protracted economic recovery , but that the recent u.s. fiscal crisis has temporarily suppressed that recovery . we do not know the full extent to which the impact of the lingering recessionary economic conditions will affect us or our portfolio companies . portfolio activity while conditions remain somewhat challenging in the marketplace , we are seeing a number of new investment opportunities that are consistent with our investment objectives and strategies . during the year ended september 30 , 2013 , we invested in 15 new proprietary and syndicate investments totaling $ 80.4 million ; however , we experienced a net contraction in our overall portfolio of three portfolio companies , primarily due to 14 portfolio companies paying off early during the year , for an aggregate of $ 79.6 million in unscheduled payoffs . subsequent to september 30 , 2013 , we invested $ 7.0 million in one new proprietary investment , as discussed under ย“ investment highlights .ย” in addition , in july 2012 , the sec granted us an exemptive order that expands our ability to co-invest with certain of our affiliates by permitting us , under certain circumstances , to co-invest with gladstone investment corporation ( ย“gladstone investmentย” ) and any future business development company or closed-end management investment company that is advised by the adviser ( or sub-advised by the adviser if it controls the fund ) or any combination of the foregoing subject to the conditions in the sec 's order . we believe this ability to co-invest will enhance our ability to further our investment objectives and strategies . we co-invested with gladstone investment in two new proprietary investmentsย—one in each of may and october 2013 , as discussed under ย“ investment highlights .ย” 41 regulatory compliance challenges in the current market are intensified for us by certain regulatory limitations under the code and the 1940 act , as well as contractual restrictions under the agreement governing our $ 137.0 million revolving line of credit ( our ย“credit facility

90.0 story_separator_special_tag as of september 30 , 2012 , six portfolio companies were either fully or partially on non-accrual status with an aggregate debt cost basis of approximately $ 61.1 million , or 17.3 % of the cost basis of all debt investments in our portfolio . during the year ended september 30 , 2013 , we sold our investments in two portfolio companies that had been on non-accrual status , wrote off our investment in one portfolio company that had been on non-accrual status , and sold substantially all of the assets of one portfolio company that had been on non-accrual status . see ย“ overview ย– investment highlights ย” for more information . there were no portfolio companies that changed from accrual status to non-accrual during the year ended september 30 , 2013. other income for the years ended september 30 , 2013 and 2012 , consisted primarily of success fees , which we generally recognize when payment is received . during the year ended

estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods . actual results could differ from those estimates . the most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include the following items : our accounts receivable consist of incomes received after year end for royalties produced prior to year-end . when there are royalties that have not been received at the time of the preparation of the financial statements for months in the prior year , we estimate the amount to be received based on the last month 's royalties that were received from that particular company . we do not maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts because other than the accrual for earned but not received royalties , we have no accounts receivable . the company accounts for income taxes in accordance with asc topic 740 , income taxes , which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities . when land is purchased with standing timber , the cost is divided between land and timber . reforestation costs are capitalized and added

beyond our product candidates , we continue to advance and build our discovery pipeline . we are discovering and developing next-generation immunotherapies by leveraging our translational science platform to systematically and comprehensively interrogate cell types within the tumor microenvironment . our broad discovery pipeline includes multiple programs targeting myeloid cells such as macrophages , t regulatory cells and non-immune cells , such as stromal cells . we believe that the use of our translational science platform to efficiently identify novel immuno-oncology targets and advance them from discovery to investigational new drug application , or ind , stage is a sustainable approach that we plan to continually apply across our broad discovery pipeline and target selection process . in august 2020 , we entered into an agreement to exclusively license jtx-1811 to gilead sciences , inc. , or gilead . jtx-1811 is the most recent product candidate to emerge from our translational science platform , and , is a monoclonal antibody that is designed to selectively deplete t regulatory cells in the tumor microenvironment , or tme , by targeting a receptor called ccr8 , which is preferentially expressed on intra-tumoral t regulatory cells . pursuant to our exclusive license agreement with gilead , or the gilead license agreement , we granted gilead a worldwide license to develop , manufacture and commercialize jtx-1811 and certain derivatives thereof , as well as backup antibodies defined within the agreement . concurrently with the license agreement , we entered into a stock purchase agreement with gilead , or the stock purchase agreement , and a registration rights agreement . 54 under the terms of the gilead license agreement and stock purchase agreement , gilead paid us a one-time , non-refundable upfront payment of $ 85.0 million and $ 35.0 million to purchase 5,539,727 shares of our common stock pursuant to the stock purchase agreement . under the terms of the gilead license agreement , we will advance jtx-1811 until the clearance of an ind application or an earlier date specified by gilead , at which time the program will be transitioned to gilead . we are entitled to receive payments from gilead upon the achievement of specified clinical , regulatory and sales milestones , including potential clinical development and regulatory milestone payments up to an aggregate total of $ 510.0 million and potential sales milestone payments up to an aggregate total of $ 175.0 million . we are also eligible to receive tiered royalty payments based on a percentage of annual worldwide net sales ranging from the high-single digits to mid-teens , based on future annual net sales of licensed products , on a licensed product-by-licensed product and country-by-country basis . on july 22 , 2019 , we entered into an exclusive license agreement with celgene , or the celgene license agreement , granting celgene a worldwide and exclusive license to develop , manufacture and commercialize jtx-8064 and certain derivatives thereof , as well as any antibody or other biologic controlled by us that is specifically directed to the lilrb2 receptor . under the terms of the celgene license agreement , celgene paid us a one-time , non-refundable upfront payment of $ 50.0 million . celgene was subsequently acquired by bristol myers squibb , or bms , in november 2019 and the celgene license agreement was terminated effective june 3 , 2020. we now have sole worldwide rights to jtx-8064 , and all of our intellectual property rights pertaining to jtx-8064 and licensed to celgene were reacquired by us . in july 2016 , we entered into a master research and collaboration agreement , or the celgene collaboration agreement , and a series b-1 preferred stock purchase agreement with celgene . under the terms of these agreements , we received a $ 225.0 million upfront cash payment and $ 36.1 million from the sale of 10,448,100 shares of our series b-1 convertible preferred stock , which shares converted into 2,831,463 shares of common stock upon the completion of our initial public offering , or ipo , in 2017. we terminated the celgene collaboration agreement concurrently with entry into the celgene license agreement . since inception , our operations have focused on organizing and staffing our company , business planning , raising capital , developing our translational science platform and conducting research , preclinical studies and clinical trials . we do not have any products approved for sale . we are subject to a number of risks comparable to those of other similar companies , including dependence on key individuals ; the need to develop commercially viable products ; competition from other companies , many of which are larger and better capitalized ; and the need to obtain adequate additional financing to fund the development of our products . we have funded our operations primarily through proceeds received from public offerings and private placements of our stock totaling $ 298.5 million and up-front payments from our celgene and gilead collaboration and license agreements totaling $ 360.0 million . due to our significant research and development expenditures , we have accumulated substantial losses since our inception . as of december 31 , 2020 , we had an accumulated deficit of $ 151.0 million . we expect to incur substantial additional losses in the future as we expand our research and development activities . the spread of covid-19 during 2020 has caused an economic downturn on a global scale . as of february 25 , 2021 , we have not experienced a significant financial impact directly related to the covid-19 pandemic but have experienced some disruptions to clinical operations and to our supply chain . as the pandemic continues to unfold , the extent of its effect on our operational and financial performance will depend in large part on future developments , which can not be predicted with confidence at this time . story_separator_special_tag the evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors , including , but not limited to , changes in the law , the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns , the effective settlement of matters subject to audit , new audit activity and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position . recent accounting pronouncements see note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included within part iv , item 15 of this annual report on form 10-k for a description of recent accounting pronouncements applicable to our business . results of operations comparison of the years ended december 31 , 2020 and 2019 the following table summarizes our results of operations for the years ended december 31 , 2020 and 2019 : replace_table_token_2_th license and collaboration revenue for the year ended december 31 , 2020 , we recognized $ 62.3 million of license revenue under the gilead license agreement entered into in october 2020. for the year ended december 31 , 2019 , we recognized $ 147.9 million of license and collaboration revenue , which was comprised of $ 50.0 million of license revenue under the celgene license agreement and $ 97.9 million of collaboration revenue under the celgene collaboration agreement . the celgene collaboration agreement was terminated effective july 22 , 2019 , at which time all remaining deferred revenue was recognized as we had no further performance obligations . 59 research and development expenses the following table summarizes our research and development expenses for the years ended december 31 , 2020 and 2019 : replace_table_token_3_th research and development expenses increased by $ 11.6 million from $ 67.1 million for the year ended december 31 , 2019 to $ 78.7 million for the year ended december 31 , 2020. the increase in research and development expenses was primarily attributable to : $ 7.9 million of increased external clinical and regulatory costs primarily attributable to our select clinical trial which commenced in 2020 ; $ 3.2 million of increased external research and development costs primarily attributable to ind-enabling expenses related to jtx-1811 , partially offset by reduced expenses related to jtx-8064 incurred during the year ended december 31 , 2020 ; $ 2.9 million of increased employee compensation costs primarily attributable to increased headcount , merit and bonus expense ; partially offset by $ 0.9 million of decreased other research costs primarily attributable to reduced travel expenses resulting from covid-19 travel limitations ; and $ 0.8 million of decreased lab consumables costs . general and administrative expenses the following table summarizes our general and administrative expenses for the years ended december 31 , 2020 and 2019 : replace_table_token_4_th general and administrative expenses increased by $ 0.8 million from $ 27.9 million for the year ended december 31 , 2019 to $ 28.8 million for the year ended december 31 , 2020. the increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to $ 1.5 million of increased employee compensation costs related to increased merit and bonus expense for the year ended december 31 , 2020. other income , net other income , net , decreased by $ 2.8 million from $ 4.1 million for the year ended december 31 , 2019 to $ 1.3 million for the year ended december 31 , 2020. the decrease in other income , net is attributable to reduced interest rates due to current market conditions . 60 liquidity and capital resources sources of liquidity we have funded our operations primarily through proceeds received from public offerings and private placements of our stock totaling $ 298.5 million and up-front payments from our celgene and gilead collaboration and license agreements totaling $ 360.0 million . as of december 31 , 2020 , we had cash , cash equivalents and investments of $ 213.2 million . on december 17 , 2019 , we entered into a sales agreement with cowen and company , llc , or cowen , pursuant to which we offered and sold shares of our common stock with an aggregate offering price of up to $ 50.0 million under the atm offering . the sales agreement provides that cowen will be entitled to a sales commission equal to 3.0 % of the gross sales price per share of all shares sold under the atm offering . as of december 31 , 2020 , we had sold an aggregate of 2,522,121 shares under the atm offering at an average price of $ 7.47 per share for net proceeds of $ 18.0 million after deducting sales commissions and offering expenses , of which $ 14.5 million was received during the year ended december 31 , 2020. in january 2021 , we sold an aggregate of 3,156,200 shares at an average price of $ 9.87 per share for net proceeds of $ 30.2 million . consequently , we have completed the sale of all available amounts under the atm offering , of which three investors account for $ 43.1 million of all funds raised ( see note 16 to our consolidated financial statements included within part iv , item 15 of this annual report on form 10-k ) . funding requirements our plan of operation is to continue implementing our business strategy , the research and development of our current product candidates , our preclinical development activities , the expansion of our research pipeline and the enhancement of our internal research and development capabilities . due to the inherently unpredictable nature of preclinical and clinical development and given the early stage of our programs and product candidates , we can not reasonably estimate the costs we will incur and the timelines that will be required to complete development , obtain marketing approval , and commercialize our products , if and when approved . for the same reasons , we are also unable to predict when , if ever , we will generate revenue from product sales or whether , or when , if ever , we may

revenues decreased $ 9.2 million from the prior year , while consolidated service revenues increased $ 5.0 million . in the aggregate , currency fluctuations decreased consolidated revenues for the year ended december 31 , 2012 by $ 1.7 million , or 2 % . the $ 12.3 million decrease in disc publishing revenues from 2011 to 2012 consists of declines of $ 6.6 million and $ 6.2 million in equipment revenues and consumables and parts revenues , respectively , partially offset by a $ 0.6 million increase in service revenues . the decrease in disc publishing equipment revenues was driven by sales declines in both europe and the u.s. sales to the company 's european channel partners were negatively impacted by continued economic challenges impacting european markets , increased competition and the negative impact of foreign currency fluctuations . equipment sales in the u.s. were negatively impacted by a significant sale to the government sector in last year 's third quarter that did not reoccur in the current year , as well as reduced sales in the company 's u.s. retail market , where sales can fluctuate significantly between periods . the 26 decline in u.s. consumable sales in the current year was primarily due to decreased usage of consumable products by the company 's retail customers and other segments of the company 's customer base . the $ 8.1 million increase in revenues generated by the enterprise content distribution software business from 2011 to 2012 was driven by the inclusion of qumu operations for a full year in 2012 compared to the post-acquisition period

revenues in the disc publishing product line in 2011 as compared to the prior year reflects a $ 10.4 million reduction in equipment revenues , partially offset by a $ 2.1 million increase in consumables and parts sales . the decrease in equipment sales reflects declines in the volume of professional series and desktop series equipment sales of $ 10.0 million and $ 0.8 million , respectively , partially offset by an increase in sales of producer series equipment of $ 0.4 million . the reduction in sales of professional series equipment was largely driven by an $ 8.9 million decline in sales of these products in the u.s. retail market segment , due primarily to the completion in the first quarter of 2011 of a multi-system sales agreement with a retail customer obtained in the second quarter of 2010. a $ 1.4 million sale to a federal law enforcement agency in the third quarter of 2010 and a reduced volume of sales in europe also contributed to the decline in

federal law enforcement agency and also sales to a u.s. retail customer in the second quarter . story_separator_special_tag augmenting the impact of lower effective yields in 2012 and 2011 was a

valuation allowance as a result of a determination that it was not โ€œ more likely than not โ€ that the company would realize all deductible temporary differences and loss and credit carryforwards in the near-term future . the increase in the effective tax rate in 2011 relative to 2010 was primarily the result of nondeductible transaction expenses associated with the acquisition of qumu .

the amount of the total otti related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income , net of applicable income taxes . the previous amortized cost basis less the otti recognized in earnings becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment . for held to maturity debt securities , the amount of an otti recorded in other comprehensive income for the noncredit portion of a previous other-than-temporary impairment is amortized prospectively over the remaining life of the security on the basis of the timing of future estimated cash flows of the security . loans the corporation 's loan portfolio is carried at the principal amount outstanding , net of unearned income and principal charge-offs . certain loan fees and direct costs are being deferred and amortized as an adjustment of yield on the loans . interest income is accrued on the principal balances of loans . the accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when , in management 's opinion , the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due . when the interest accrual is discontinued , all unpaid accrued interest is reversed against earnings when considered uncollectible . interest income accrued in the prior year , if any , is charged to the allowance for loan losses . interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received and the loan is returned to accruing status . certain non-accrual , substantially delinquent and renegotiated loans classified as troubled debt restructures may be considered to be impaired in accordance with asc 310 , receivables . under asc 310-10 , a loan is impaired when , based on current information or events , it is probable all amounts due ( principal and interest ) according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement are uncollectible . renegotiated consumer loans classified as troubled debt restructures are considered to be impaired . in applying the provisions of asc 310-10 , the corporation considers all other investments in one-to-four family residential loans and consumer installment loans to be homogeneous and therefore excluded from separate identification for evaluation of impairment . impaired loans are carried at the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent , or the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan 's existing rate . a portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans if the value of such loans is deemed to be less than the unpaid balance . if these allocations cause the allowance for loan losses to increase , such increase is reported as a component of the provision for loan losses . loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of the loan is confirmed . the valuation would be considered level 3 , consisting of appraisals of underlying collateral and discounted cash flow analysis . 37 part ii : item 7. and item 7a . management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations the cares act and the interagency statement on loan modifications encourage financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations due to the effects of covid-19 . additionally , section 4013 of the cares act further provides that a qualified loan modification is exempt by law from classification as a troubled debt restructure as defined by gaap , from the period beginning march 1 , 2020 until the earlier of december 31 , 2020 or the date that is 60 days after the date on which the national emergency concerning the covid-19 outbreak under the national emergencies act ( 50 u.s.c . 1601 et seq . ) terminates . the 2021 consolidated appropriations act extended the expiration date for covid-related loan modifications exempt from troubled debt restructuring classification under gaap until the earlier of january 1 , 2022 , or 60 days after the termination of the national emergency . additional details of the corporation 's loan modifications under these programs are included in the `` loan quality `` section of this management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations . purchased loans loans acquired in a business combination with evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable that all contractually required payments will not be collected are considered to be purchased credit impaired . evidence of credit quality deterioration as of purchase dates may include information such as past-due and nonaccrual status , borrower credit risk grade and recent loan to value percentages . purchased credit-impaired loans are accounted for under the accounting guidance for loans and debt securities acquired with deteriorated credit quality ( asc 310-30 ) . these loans are initially measured at fair value based upon expected cash flows without anticipation of prepayments and includes estimated future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loans . as a result , related discounts are recognized subsequently through accretion based on the expected cash flows of the acquired loans . for purposes of applying asc 310-30 , loans acquired in business combinations are individually evaluated for the initial fair value measurement . accordingly , allowances for credit losses related to these loans are not carried over at the acquisition date . the difference between contractually required payments and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the nonaccretable portion of the fair value discount or premium . the accretable portion of the fair value discount or premium is the difference between the expected cash flows and the net present value of expected cash flows , with such difference accreted into income over the term of the loans . acquired loans not accounted for under asc 310-30 are accounted for under asc 310-20 , which allows the fair value adjustment to be accreted into income over the remaining life of the loans . story_separator_special_tag for small businesses , eligible nonprofits and certain others , the cares act established a paycheck protection program ( โ€œ ppp โ€ ) , which is administered by the small business administration ( โ€œ sba โ€ ) . on april 24 , 2020 , the paycheck protection program and health care enhancement act was enacted . among other things , this legislation amends the initial cares act program by raising the appropriation level for ppp loans from $ 349 billion to $ 670 billion . the ppp was further modified on june 5 , 2020 with the adoption of the paycheck protection program flexibility act ( the flexibility act ) , which extended the maturity date for ppp loans from two years to five years for loans disbursed on or after the date of enactment of the flexibility act . for ppp loans disbursed prior to such enactment , the flexibility act permits the borrower and lender to mutually agree to extend the term of the loan to five years . the bank has actively participated in assisting its customers with applications for resources through the program . ppp loans earn interest at a fixed rate of 1 percent and primarily have a two-year term . the bank anticipates that the majority of these loans will ultimately be forgiven , in whole or in part , by the sba in accordance with the terms of the program . under the terms of the ppp , the loans are fully guaranteed by the sba . as of december 31 , 2020 , the bank had over 4,400 ppp loans representing $ 667.1 million , which is net of $ 12.5 million of deferred processing fee income and costs . the weighted-average deferred processing fee on ppp loans was approximately 3.09 percent and is recognized over the term of the loan . if a loan is forgiven by the sba or paid off by the borrower prior to maturity , any unamortized portion of the fee will be recognized immediately . during the year ended december 31 , 2020 , the corporation recognized interest income on ppp loans of $ 6.2 million and $ 16.2 million of ppp loan related deferred processing fee income as a yield adjustment . 40 part ii : item 7. and item 7a . management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations the

businesses adversely impacted by the covid-19 pandemic . the main street programs are intended to provide credit flows to financial institutions so that they can provide loans to eligible small and mid-sized businesses . the funds available through the main street programs amount to $ 600 billion . under this initiative , which was modified and supplemented by the federal reserve on april 30 , 2020 , three loan facilities have been established for `` for profit `` entities : ( i ) the main street new loan facility ( the โ€œ msnlf ) , ( ii ) the main street priority loan facility ( the โ€œ msplf โ€ ) ; and ( iii ) the main street expanded loan facility ( the โ€œ mself โ€ ) , each of which was authorized by the federal reserve under section 13 ( 3 ) of the federal reserve act . all three facilities use the same eligible lender and eligible borrower criteria , and have many of the same features , including the same maturity , interest rate , deferral of principal and interest for one year , and ability of the borrower to prepay without penalty . as required by the cares act , main street loans are full-recourse to the borrower and are not forgivable . the loan types differ in amounts and other terms , including in how they interact with the eligible borrower 's existing outstanding debt . the proposed minimum loan amounts under the msnlf and the msplf were initially set at $ 250,000 , but were lowered to $ 100,000 by the federal reserve effective october 30 , 2020. the minimum loan amount under the mself has been set at $ 10 million . the maximum loan amount under all

liquidity management is the process by which the corporation ensures that adequate liquid funds are available for the holding company and its subsidiaries . these funds are necessary in order to meet financial commitments on a timely basis . these commitments include withdrawals by depositors , funding credit obligations to borrowers , paying dividends to stockholders , paying operating expenses , funding capital expenditures , and maintaining deposit reserve requirements . liquidity is monitored and closely managed by the asset/liability committee . the corporation 's liquidity is dependent upon the receipt of dividends from the bank , which is subject to certain regulatory limitations and access to other funding sources . liquidity of the bank is derived primarily from core deposit growth , principal payments received on loans , the sale and maturity of investment securities , net cash provided by operating activities , and access to other funding sources . the principal source of asset-funded liquidity is investment securities classified as available for sale , the market values of which totaled $ 1.9 billion at december 31 , 2020 , an increase of $ 129.1 million , or 7.2 percent , from december 31 , 2019. securities classified as held to maturity that are maturing within a short period of time can also be a source of liquidity . ``` Suspicious Activity Report : the amount of the total otti related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income , net of applicable income taxes . the previous amortized cost basis less the otti recognized in earnings becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment . for held to maturity debt securities , the amount of an otti recorded in other comprehensive income for the noncredit portion of a previous other-than-temporary impairment is amortized prospectively over the remaining life of the security on the basis of the timing of future estimated cash flows of the security . loans the corporation 's loan portfolio is carried at the principal amount outstanding , net of unearned income and principal charge-offs . certain loan fees and direct costs are being deferred and amortized as an adjustment of yield on the loans . interest income is accrued on the principal balances of loans . the accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when , in management 's opinion , the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due . when the interest accrual is discontinued , all unpaid accrued interest is reversed against earnings when considered uncollectible . interest income accrued in the prior year , if any , is charged to the allowance for loan losses . interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received and the loan is returned to accruing status . certain non-accrual , substantially delinquent and renegotiated loans classified as troubled debt restructures may be considered to be impaired in accordance with asc 310 , receivables . under asc 310-10 , a loan is impaired when , based on current information or events , it is probable all amounts due ( principal and interest ) according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement are uncollectible . renegotiated consumer loans classified as troubled debt restructures are considered to be impaired . in applying the provisions of asc 310-10 , the corporation considers all other investments in one-to-four family residential loans and consumer installment loans to be homogeneous and therefore excluded from separate identification for evaluation of impairment . impaired loans are carried at the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent , or the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan 's existing rate . a portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans if the value of such loans is deemed to be less than the unpaid balance . if these allocations cause the allowance for loan losses to increase , such increase is reported as a component of the provision for loan losses . loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of the loan is confirmed . the valuation would be considered level 3 , consisting of appraisals of underlying collateral and discounted cash flow analysis . 37 part ii : item 7. and item 7a . management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations the cares act and the interagency statement on loan modifications encourage financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations due to the effects of covid-19 . additionally , section 4013 of the cares act further provides that a qualified loan modification is exempt by law from classification as a troubled debt restructure as defined by gaap , from the period beginning march 1 , 2020 until the earlier of december 31 , 2020 or the date that is 60 days after the date on which the national emergency concerning the covid-19 outbreak under the national emergencies act ( 50 u.s.c . 1601 et seq . ) terminates . the 2021 consolidated appropriations act extended the expiration date for covid-related loan modifications exempt from troubled debt restructuring classification under gaap until the earlier of january 1 , 2022 , or 60 days after the termination of the national emergency . additional details of the corporation 's loan modifications under these programs are included in the `` loan quality `` section of this management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations . purchased loans loans acquired in a business combination with evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable that all contractually required payments will not be collected are considered to be purchased credit impaired . evidence of credit quality deterioration as of purchase dates may include information such as past-due and nonaccrual status , borrower credit risk grade and recent loan to value percentages . purchased credit-impaired loans are accounted for under the accounting guidance for loans and debt securities acquired with deteriorated credit quality ( asc 310-30 ) . these loans are initially measured at fair value based upon expected cash flows without anticipation of prepayments and includes estimated future credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the loans . as a result , related discounts are recognized subsequently through accretion based on the expected cash flows of the acquired loans . for purposes of applying asc 310-30 , loans acquired in business combinations are individually evaluated for the initial fair value measurement . accordingly , allowances for credit losses related to these loans are not carried over at the acquisition date . the difference between contractually required payments and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the nonaccretable portion of the fair value discount or premium . the accretable portion of the fair value discount or premium is the difference between the expected cash flows and the net present value of expected cash flows , with such difference accreted into income over the term of the loans . acquired loans not accounted for under asc 310-30 are accounted for under asc 310-20 , which allows the fair value adjustment to be accreted into income over the remaining life of the loans . story_separator_special_tag for small businesses , eligible nonprofits and certain others , the cares act established a paycheck protection program ( โ€œ ppp โ€ ) , which is administered by the small business administration ( โ€œ sba โ€ ) . on april 24 , 2020 , the paycheck protection program and health care enhancement act was enacted . among other things , this legislation amends the initial cares act program by raising the appropriation level for ppp loans from $ 349 billion to $ 670 billion . the ppp was further modified on june 5 , 2020 with the adoption of the paycheck protection program flexibility act ( the flexibility act ) , which extended the maturity date for ppp loans from two years to five years for loans disbursed on or after the date of enactment of the flexibility act . for ppp loans disbursed prior to such enactment , the flexibility act permits the borrower and lender to mutually agree to extend the term of the loan to five years . the bank has actively participated in assisting its customers with applications for resources through the program . ppp loans earn interest at a fixed rate of 1 percent and primarily have a two-year term . the bank anticipates that the majority of these loans will ultimately be forgiven , in whole or in part , by the sba in accordance with the terms of the program . under the terms of the ppp , the loans are fully guaranteed by the sba . as of december 31 , 2020 , the bank had over 4,400 ppp loans representing $ 667.1 million , which is net of $ 12.5 million of deferred processing fee income and costs . the weighted-average deferred processing fee on ppp loans was approximately 3.09 percent and is recognized over the term of the loan . if a loan is forgiven by the sba or paid off by the borrower prior to maturity , any unamortized portion of the fee will be recognized immediately . during the year ended december 31 , 2020 , the corporation recognized interest income on ppp loans of $ 6.2 million and $ 16.2 million of ppp loan related deferred processing fee income as a yield adjustment . 40 part ii :

parameters are achieved . many contracts also stipulate penalties if agreed upon performance benchmarks have not been met . revenue is recognized net of any potential penalties until the performance criteria relating to the penalties have been achieved . commissions based revenue is recognized when performance is completed less an allowance for estimated cancellations based on contractual

in the comparable prior year period . the ppg segment had no gross profit in 2007 or 2006 . ( note : compensation and other selling , general and administrative ( other sg & a ) expense amounts for each segment contain allocated corporate overhead . ) replace_table_token_6_th the decrease in compensation expense for both sales services and marketing services segments in 2007 was the result of reduced headcount and unfilled executive positions when compared to 2006. as a percentage of total revenue , compensation expense increased to 20.9 % for 2007 from 11.7 % in 2006 primarily due to the decrease in revenue . the ppg segment did not have any compensation expense in 2007 or 2006. replace_table_token_7_th total other sg & a expenses decreased primarily due to the following : 1 ) a decrease in audit and related costs of $ 1.5 million ; 2 ) a decrease in facility costs of approximately $ 390,000 ; 3 ) a reduction in business insurance expense of approximately $ 400,000 ; and 4 ) approximately $ 600,000 less in marketing expense . these decreases were partially offset by an approximately $ 550,000 accrual in state franchise taxes pertaining to one particular state 's assessment . as a percentage of total revenue , other sg & a expenses increased to 17.1 % from 9.5 % in 2006 due to the decrease in revenue in 2007. executive severance in 2007 , we did not have any executive severance costs . in 2006 , we incurred approximately $ 573,000 in executive severance costs that related to the departure of one executive . legal and related costs in 2007 , we had legal expenses of approximately $ 335,000 , which primarily pertained to legal expenses incurred by us in the ordinary course of business . in 2006 , we had a net credit to legal expense of $ 3.3 million . the credit to legal expense included approximately $ 3.5 million in cash received in relation to the cellegy litigation matter and approximately $ 516,000 in credits related to the reversing of the california class action lawsuit accrual . for details on both legal matters , see note 9 to the consolidated financial statements . 27 pdi , inc. annual report on form 10-k ( continued ) facilities realignment in 2007 , we had net charges of approximately $ 1.0 million primarily related to the impairment of fixed assets and other expenses related to our exiting the computer data center space at our saddle river , new jersey location in december 2007. total charges in 2007 for the sales services segment were approximately $ 1.0 million and approximately $ 26,000 was credited to the marketing services segment . in 2006 , we had net charges of approximately $ 657,000 related to unused office space capacity at our saddle river , new jersey and dresher , pennsylvania locations and approximately $ 1.3 million in expense related to the impairment of fixed assets associated with the unused office space at these facilities . total charges in 2006 for the sales services segment were approximately $ 1.3 million and approximately $ 675,000 was charged to the marketing services segment . replace_table_token_8_th the operating loss in 2007 is primarily attributable to the decline in revenue and gross profit in the sales services segment due to the termination of sales force contracts mentioned previously . there was an operating loss in 2007 for the marketing services segment of $ 362,000 compared to operating income of $ 2.8 million in 2006. the decrease in operating income from marketing services segment was primarily attributable to a decrease in revenue and gross profit at all three units due to fewer projects . there was operating income of $ 3.1 million in 2006 in the ppg segment which consisted entirely of settlement payments from cellegy , net of legal expenses . there was no operating income from ppg in 2007. interest income , net interest income , net , for 2007 and 2006 was approximately $ 6.1 million and $ 4.7 million , respectively . the increase is primarily attributable to an increase in interest rates for 2007 as well as larger available cash balances . provision for income taxes we recorded a provision for income taxes of $ 1.8 million for 2007 , compared to a benefit for income taxes of $ 724,000 for 2006. our overall effective tax rate was a provision of 21.5 % and a benefit of 6.8 % for 2007 and 2006 , respectively . the tax provision for 2007 is primarily attributable to the full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets except for the basis difference in goodwill . federal tax attribute carryforwards at december 31 , 2007 , consist primarily of approximately $ 9.7 million of net operating losses and $ 339,000 of capital losses . in addition , we have approximately $ 47.9 million of state net operating losses carryforwards . the utilization of the federal carryforwards as an available offset to future taxable income is subject to limitations under federal income tax laws . if the federal net operating losses are not utilized , they will expire in 2027. the capital losses can only be utilized against capital gains and $ 339,000 will expire in 2009 .

through this process , which typically takes several weeks , we are able to assess the characteristics and size of the prospect 's service revenue , identify potential areas of performance improvement

first formal discussion with the client until execution of a new client contract , is typically six months and has decreased in recent periods . implementation cycle . after entering into an engagement with a new client , and to a lesser extent after adding an engagement with an existing client , we incur sales and marketing expenses related to the commissions owed to our sales personnel . these commissions are based on realized revenue that the contract delivers over time and on the estimated total annual contract value . commission amounts based on realized revenue are expensed in the period the related revenue is recognized by the company . upfront commissions based on estimated total annual contract value are capitalizable as contract acquisition costs and expensed ratably over the expected life of the applicable contract or five years if the contract is between the company and one of its long-standing clients . we also make upfront investments in technology and personnel to support the engagement . these upfront commissions and investments are typically incurred one to three months before we begin generating sales and recognizing revenue . accordingly , in a given quarter , an increase in new clients , and , to a lesser extent , an increase in engagements with existing clients , or a significant increase in the contract value associated with such new clients and engagements , will negatively impact our gross margin and operating margins until we begin to achieve anticipated sales levels associated with the new engagements , which is typically two to three quarters after we begin selling contracts on behalf of our clients . although we expect new client engagements to contribute to our operating profitability over time , in the initial periods of a client relationship , our near-term profitability can be negatively impacted by slower-than anticipated growth in revenues for these engagements as well as the impact of the upfront costs we incur , the lower initial level of associated service sales team productivity and lack of mature data and technology integration with the client . as a result , an increase in the mix of new 16

contracts typically have an initial term between one and two years . our contracts generally require our clients to deliver a minimum value of qualifying service revenue contracts for us to renew on their behalf during a specified period . to the extent that our clients do not meet their minimum contractual commitments over a specified period , they may be subject to fees for the shortfall . our

activity to continue to occur in the future . the impact of these transactions on our business can vary . acquisitions of other companies by our clients can provide us with the opportunity to pursue additional business to the extent the acquired company is not already one of our clients . similarly , when a client is acquired , we may be able to use our relationship with the acquired company to build a relationship with the acquirer . in some cases , we have been able to maintain our relationship with an acquired client even where the acquiring company handles its other service contract

variance in our revenue which is typically higher in the fourth quarter when many of our clients ' products come up for renewal , and for the third quarter of the year which is typically lower as a result of lower or flat renewal volume corresponding to the timing of our customers ' product sales particularly in the international regions . the impact of this seasonal fluctuation can be amplified

in a contract are performed at various times and patterns throughout the month or quarter and the number of closed bookings vary in any given period , each time increment of a service activity is substantially the same and has the same pattern of transfer to the client , and therefore , represents a series of distinct performance obligations that form a single performance obligation . as a result , the company allocates all variable consideration in a contract to the selling services performance obligation in accordance with the variable consideration allocation exception provisions in asc 606 ( less amounts for which it is probable a significant reversal of revenue will occur when the uncertainties related to the variability are resolved ) and applies a single measure of progress to record revenue in the period based on when the output of the variable number of closed bookings occurs or when the variable performance metric is achieved . our revenue contracts often include promises to transfer services involving multiple selling motions to a client . determining whether those services are considered distinct performance obligations and qualify as a series of distinct performance obligations that represent a single performance obligation requires significant judgment . also , due to the continuous nature of providing services to our clients , judgment is required in determining when control of the services is transferred to the client . a significant portion of our contracts is based on a pay-for-performance model that provides the company with commissions and

material events operations : in july 2011 , pan american oil company , llc ( โ€œ pan american โ€ ) entered into a preliminary purchase and sale agreement with rio bravo oil , llc in which pan american agreed to purchase all of rio bravo oil llc 's right , title and interest in its approximate 27 % working interest and 23 % net revenue interest in certain leaseholds in the luling-edwards field . the purchase price was approximately $ 1.5 million in cash with a requirement to close on or before november 30 , 2011. the agreement was subsequently modified to include rio bravo 's approximate 3.345 % working interest and 12.5 % net revenue interest ( after overrides ) in certain leaseholds in the bateman field and the purchase price was increased to include approximately an additional $ 1.7 million in cash with the acquisition date extended until pan american was able to arrange funding . in february 2012 the agreement was modified again such that the assets included in the amended purchase and sale agreement included the original luling-edwards field leaseholds and an option to purchase the bateman field leaseholds . this transaction closed on february 13 , 2012. in november 2011 , pan american oil company , llc entered into two separate purchase and sale agreements with entities that were sold partial interests in the luling-edwards field by rio bravo oil , llc in march 2010. the agreements called for pan american to purchase approximately 20.75 % net revenue interest and 30 % working interest in the leaseholds in the luling-edwards field and had a combined purchase price of $ 300,000 in cash and the requirement of pan american to deliver $ 500,000 worth of the shares of preferred stock pan american receives in connection with a sale of its interests to a public company . on february 13 , 2012 , the company entered into a share exchange agreement with pan american . pursuant to the agreement , pan american exchanged its outstanding membership interests for 5,500,000 shares of rio bravo 's series a preferred stock and the assumption of approximately $ 3.3 million of liabilities . in june 2012 , the company consummated two transactions to acquire additional leasehold rights to acreage in guadeloupe and caldwell counties , texas . in the first agreement , the company entered into a purchase and sale agreement with numa luling , llc in which the company acquired all of numa luling , llc 's right , title and interest ( 25 % working interest and 25 % net revenue interest , subject to 25 % orri ) in leasehold rights to the same formation , the edwards formation , held by the company . the purchase price for the acquisition of interests held by numa luling , llc was 3,250,000 shares of series b preferred stock , which the company valued at $ 3.466 million . the second acquisition was an asset purchase agreement with eagle ford oil co , inc. in which the company acquired 80 % of the leasehold interests held by eagle ford oil co , inc .. the leaseholds acquired are for depths other than the edwards formation on the same acreage as the leaseholds owned by the company . as part of the agreement , the company agreed to carry the remaining 20 % interest for drilling and swabbing operations , but not for leasehold operating expenses . the purchase price was payment of approximately $ 2 million in cash plus a note in the amount of $ 225,000 plus the assumption of certain payment obligations to the bankruptcy estate of the previous owner of the leasehold rights . the payment of one obligation calls for the company to pay to the bankruptcy estate $ 5,000 per well drilled to a maximum of 200 wells and if that total is not met a balloon payment is due on march 16 , 2016 for the difference between $ 1 million and the per well amount funded through march 16 , 2016. in 2012 , the third party operator for the company 's leasehold interests commenced several drilling and work-over programs targeting three different depths within the buda and edwards formations . the first program started by the third party operator was an attempt to test for recompleting the wells drilled in the 2010 drilling program that were all dry holes that were acquired by the company with their purchase of pan american oil co , llc and numa luling , llc . during 2012 the company began recomplete work on the # 1h and the # 3h wells . as of december 31 , 2012 , the company had incurred drilling costs of approximately $ 232,000 in regards to this first program . the # 1h well is still being tested , while the # 3h well will go into production after proper pump size has been determined . the company expects to be able to report production test results in the second quarter of 2013 . 17 the second program started was a small workover program covering 4 previously inactive wells in the austin chalk formation that were acquired in the purchase of the leasehold interest acquired from eagle ford oil co. inc.

in addition , because fuel costs represent a significant part of our customers ' operating expenses , volatile and or high fuel prices can adversely affect our customers ' businesses , and consequently the demand for our services and our results of operations . our hedging activities may not be effective to mitigate volatile fuel prices and may expose us to counterparty risk . see ย“item 1a ย– risk factorsย” of this form 10-k. reportable segments we have three reportable operating segments : aviation , marine and land . corporate expenses are allocated to the segment based on usage , where possible , or on other factors according to the nature of the activity . we evaluate and manage our business segments using the performance measurement of income from operations . financial information with respect to our business segments is provided in note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements included in this form 10-k. critical accounting policies and estimates the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this form 10-k , which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states . the preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets , liabilities , revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities . on an ongoing basis , we evaluate our estimates , including those related to unbilled revenue and related costs of sales , bad debt , share-based payment awards , derivatives , goodwill and identifiable intangible assets and certain accrued liabilities . we base our estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances , the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources . actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions . we have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations . for a detailed discussion on the application of these and other significant accounting policies , see note 1 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements included in this form 10-k. revenue recognition revenue from the sale of fuel is recognized when the sales price is fixed or determinable , collectability is reasonably assured and title passes to the customer , which is when the delivery of fuel is made to our customer directly from us , the supplier or a third-party subcontractor . our fuel sales are generated as a fuel reseller as well as from on-hand inventory supply . when acting as a fuel reseller , we generally purchase fuel from the supplier , mark it up and contemporaneously resell the fuel to the customer , normally taking delivery for purchased fuel at the same 24 place and time as the delivery is made to the customer . we record the gross sale of the fuel as we generally take inventory risk , have latitude in establishing the sales price , have discretion in the supplier selection , maintain credit risk and are the primary obligor in the sales arrangement . revenue from fuel-related services is recognized when services are performed , the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured . we record the sale of fuel-related services on a gross basis as we generally have latitude in establishing the sales price , have discretion in supplier selection , maintain credit risk and are the primary obligor in the sales arrangement . commission from fuel broker services is recognized when services are performed and collectability is reasonably assured . when acting as a fuel broker , we are paid a commission by the supplier . revenue from charge card transactions is recognized at the time the purchase is made by the customer using the charge card . revenue from charge card transactions is generated from processing fees . share-based payment awards we account for share-based payment awards on a fair value basis . under fair value accounting , the grant-date fair value of the share-based payment award is amortized as compensation expense , on a straight-line basis , over the vesting period for both graded and cliff vesting awards . annual compensation expense for share-based payment awards is reduced by an expected forfeiture amount on the outstanding share-based payment awards . we use the black-scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of option awards . the estimation of the fair value of option awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables . these variables include our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards , actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors , risk-free interest rates and expected dividends . the expected term of option awards represents the estimated period of time from grant until exercise or conversion and is based on vesting schedules and expected post-vesting , exercise and employment termination behavior . expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the period that is equivalent to the award 's expected life . any adjustment to the historical volatility as an indicator of future volatility would be based on the impact to historical volatility of significant non-recurring events that would not be expected in the future . risk-free interest rates are based on the u.s. treasury yield curve at the time of grant for the period that is equivalent to the award 's expected life . dividend yields are based on the historical dividends of world fuel over the period that is equivalent to the award 's expected life , as adjusted for stock splits . story_separator_special_tag for 2010 , our effective tax rate was 17.5 % and our income tax provision was $ 31.0 million , as compared to an effective tax rate of 21.6 % and an income tax provision of $ 32.3 million for 2009. the lower effective tax rate for 2010 resulted primarily from differences in the actual results of our subsidiaries in tax jurisdictions with different tax rates as compared to 2009. net income and diluted earnings per share . our net income for 2010 was $ 146.9 million , an increase of $ 29.8 million , or 25.4 % , as compared to 2009. diluted earnings per share for 2010 was $ 2.31 per share , an increase of $ 0.35 per share , or 17.9 % , as compared to 2009. non-gaap net income and non-gaap diluted earnings per share . the following table sets forth the reconciliation between our net income and our non-gaap net income for 2010 and 2009 ( in thousands ) : replace_table_token_10_th the following table sets forth the reconciliation between our diluted earnings per share and our non-gaap diluted earnings per share for 2010 and 2009 : replace_table_token_11_th the non-gaap financial measures exclude costs associated with share-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangible assets , primarily because we do not believe they are reflective of the company 's core operating results . we believe the exclusion of share-based compensation from operating expenses is useful given the variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair value of our common stock , the effect of which is unrelated to the operational conditions that give rise to variations in the components of our operating costs . also , we believe the exclusion of the amortization of acquired intangible assets is useful for purposes of evaluating operating performance of our core operating results and comparing them period-over-period . we believe that these non-gaap financial measures , when considered in conjunction with our financial information prepared in accordance with gaap , are useful to investors to further aid in evaluating the ongoing financial performance of the company and to provide greater transparency as supplemental information to our gaap results . non-gaap financial measures should not be considered in isolation from , or as a substitute for , financial information prepared in accordance with gaap . in addition , our presentation of non-gaap net income and non-gaap earnings per share may not be comparable to the presentation of such metrics by other companies . investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-gaap measures to their most directly comparable gaap financial measure . 30 2009 compared to 2008 revenue . our revenue for 2009 was $ 11.3 billion , a decrease of $ 7.2 billion , or 39.0 % , as compared to 2008. our

2009 , a decrease of $ 3.9 billion , or 39.1 % , as compared to 2008. of the total decrease in marine segment revenue , $ 2.4 billion was due to decreased sales volume primarily attributable to the

decrease in aviation segment gross profit , $ 3.6 million was due to decreased sales volume which was partially offset by $ 1.5 million in higher gross profit per gallon sold , reflecting the result of our efforts to change the business mix to yield higher margins and our continued efforts to achieve risk adjusted returns on invested capital . our marine segment gross profit for 2009 was $ 168.9

Report : in addition , because fuel costs represent a significant part of our customers ' operating expenses , volatile and or high fuel prices can adversely affect our customers ' businesses , and consequently the demand for our services and our results of operations . our hedging activities may not be effective to mitigate volatile fuel prices and may expose us to counterparty risk . see ย“item 1a ย– risk factorsย” of this form 10-k. reportable segments we have three reportable operating segments : aviation , marine and land . corporate expenses are allocated to the segment based on usage , where possible , or on other factors according to the nature of the activity . we evaluate and manage our business segments using the performance measurement of income from operations . financial information with respect to our business segments is provided in note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements included in this form 10-k. critical accounting policies and estimates the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this form 10-k , which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states . the preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets , liabilities , revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities . on an ongoing basis , we evaluate our estimates , including those related to unbilled revenue and related costs of sales , bad debt , share-based payment awards , derivatives , goodwill and identifiable intangible assets and certain accrued liabilities . we base our estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances , the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources . actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions . we have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations . for a detailed discussion on the application of these and other significant accounting policies , see note 1 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements included in this form 10-k. revenue recognition revenue from the sale of fuel is recognized when the sales price is fixed or determinable , collectability is reasonably assured and title passes to the customer , which is when the delivery of fuel is made to our customer directly from us , the supplier or a third-party subcontractor . our fuel sales are generated as a fuel reseller as well as from on-hand inventory supply . when acting as a fuel reseller , we generally purchase fuel from the supplier , mark it up and contemporaneously resell the fuel to the customer , normally taking delivery for purchased fuel at the same 24 place and time as the delivery is made to the customer . we record the gross sale of the fuel as we generally take inventory risk , have latitude in establishing the sales price , have discretion in the supplier selection , maintain credit risk and are the primary obligor in the sales arrangement . revenue from fuel-related services is recognized when services are performed , the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured . we record the sale of fuel-related services on a gross basis as we generally have latitude in establishing the sales price , have discretion in supplier selection , maintain credit risk and are the primary obligor in the sales arrangement . commission from fuel broker services is recognized when services are performed and collectability is reasonably assured . when acting as a fuel broker , we are paid a commission by the supplier . revenue from charge card transactions is recognized at the time the purchase is made by the customer using the charge card . revenue from charge card transactions is generated from processing fees . share-based payment awards we account for share-based payment awards on a fair value basis . under fair value accounting , the grant-date fair value of the share-based payment award is amortized as compensation expense , on a straight-line basis , over the vesting period for both graded and cliff vesting awards . annual compensation expense for share-based payment awards is reduced by an expected forfeiture amount on the outstanding share-based payment awards . we use the black-scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of option awards . the estimation of the fair value of option awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables . these variables include our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards , actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors , risk-free interest rates and expected dividends . the expected term of option awards represents the estimated period of time from grant until exercise or conversion and is based on vesting schedules and expected post-vesting , exercise and employment termination behavior . expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the period that is equivalent to the award 's expected life . any adjustment to the historical volatility as an indicator of future volatility would be based on the impact to historical volatility of significant non-recurring events that would not be expected in the future . risk-free interest rates are based on the u.s. treasury yield curve at the time of grant for the period that is equivalent to the award 's expected life . dividend yields are based on the historical dividends of world fuel over the period that is equivalent to the award 's expected life , as adjusted for stock splits . story_separator_special_tag for 2010 , our effective tax rate was 17.5 % and our income tax provision was $ 31.0 million , as compared to an effective tax rate of 21.6 % and an income tax provision of $ 32.3 million for 2009. the lower effective tax rate for 2010 resulted primarily from differences in the actual results of our subsidiaries in tax jurisdictions with different tax rates as compared to 2009. net income and diluted earnings per share . our net income for 2010 was $ 146.9 million , an increase of $ 29.8 million , or 25.4 % , as compared to 2009. diluted earnings per share for 2010 was $ 2.31 per share , an increase of $ 0.35 per share , or 17.9 % , as compared to 2009. non-gaap net income and non-gaap diluted earnings per share . the following table sets forth the reconciliation between our net income and our non-gaap net income for 2010 and 2009 ( in thousands ) : replace_table_token_10_th the following table sets forth the reconciliation between our diluted earnings per share and our non-gaap diluted earnings per share for 2010 and 2009 : replace_table_token_11_th the non-gaap financial measures exclude costs associated with share-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangible assets , primarily because we do not believe they are reflective of the company 's core operating results . we believe the exclusion of share-based compensation from operating expenses is useful given the variation in expense that can result from changes in the fair value of our common stock , the effect of which is unrelated to the operational conditions that give rise to variations in the components of our operating costs . also , we believe the exclusion of the amortization of acquired intangible assets is useful for purposes of evaluating operating performance of our core operating results and comparing them period-over-period . we believe that these non-gaap financial measures , when considered in conjunction with our financial information prepared in accordance with gaap , are useful to investors to further aid in evaluating the ongoing financial performance of the company and to provide greater transparency as supplemental information to our gaap results . non-gaap financial measures should not be considered in isolation from , or as a substitute for , financial information prepared in accordance with gaap . in addition , our presentation of non-gaap net income and non-gaap earnings per share may not be comparable to the presentation of such metrics by other companies . investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-gaap measures to their most directly comparable gaap financial measure . 30 2009 compared to 2008 revenue . our revenue for 2009 was $ 11.3 billion , a decrease of $ 7.2 billion , or 39.0 % , as compared to 2008. our

performance targets for this acquisition would not be met . as a result , we reduced the contingent consideration liability plus accrued interest associated with this acquisition by $ 3,105 and recorded this as a reduction to general and administration expenses . future changes to the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration , if any , will be recognized in our earnings . we recorded estimated goodwill of $ 7,019 , which is not deductible for income tax purposes , and estimated identifiable intangible assets for proprietary technologies of $ 1,000. the tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were not material . acquisition of private cloud technology company on march 2 , 2020 , we acquired certain assets of a private cloud technology company ( the โ€œ private cloud technology company acquisition โ€ ) . the private cloud technology company enables enterprises to design and implement the digital 36 table of contents transition from legacy systems and applications to a modern cloud computing platform . the technology and operations of the private cloud technology company have been integrated into our envestnet wealth solutions segment . in connection with the private cloud technology company acquisition , we paid estimated consideration of $ 11,968 , net of cash acquired . in connection with the acquisition , we recorded estimated goodwill of $ 10,932 , which is deductible for income tax purposes . the tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were not material . acquisition of private financial technology design company on march 3 , 2020 , we acquired the outstanding units of a private financial technology design company that were not owned by the company and merged the acquired company into a wholly owned subsidiary

decreased 17 % from $ 37,002 in 2019 to $ 30,776 in 2020. the decrease was due to timing of the completion of customer projects and deployments , as well as a decrease in revenues resulting from the cancellation of our 2020 advisor summit . cost of revenues cost of revenues increased 10 % from $ 278,811 in 2019 to $ 305,929 in 2020 , primarily due to an increase in asset-based cost of revenues of $ 34,656 , partially offset by decreases in professional services and other revenues of $ 5,568 and subscription-based cost of revenues of $ 1,970. as a percentage of total revenues , cost of revenues remained consistent at 31 % for the years ended december 31 , 2019 and 2020. compensation and benefits compensation and benefits increased 4 % from $ 383,554 in 2019 to $ 398,970 in 2020 , primarily due to increases in severance expense of $ 9,742 and incentive compensation of $ 6,925 , partially offset by salary , benefits and related payroll taxes of $ 1,922. the increase in severance expense is primarily related to charges connected with the early retirement program that was offered to eligible employees through january 31 , 2020. the 2019 acquisitions contributed compensation and benefits expenses of $ 22,891 and $ 28,601 , to total compensation and benefits expense in 2019 and 2020 , respectively . as a percentage of total revenues , compensation and benefits decreased from 43 % in 2019 to 40 % in 2020 , primarily due to revenue growth of our 2019 acquisitions outpacing compensation and benefit growth for these same acquisitions . general and administration general and administration expenses increased 5 % from $ 152,564 in 2019 to $ 160,229 in 2020 , primarily due to increases in non-recurring restructuring charges and transaction costs of $ 11,202 , systems development expense of $ 4,772 , trade errors of $ 3,045 , permits , licenses and fees of $ 1,425 , professional and legal expenses of $ 1,363 and other miscellaneous general and administrative expenses of $ 1,278. these increases were partially offset by decreases in travel and entertainment expense of $ 12,335 , occupancy costs of $ 3,296 and marketing expense of $ 3,159. the 2019 acquisitions contributed general and administration expenses of $ 8,701 and $ 6,593 , to total general and administration expenses in 2019 and 2020 respectively . as a percentage of total revenues , general and administration expenses decreased from 17 % in 2019 to 16 % and 2020. depreciation and amortization depreciation and amortization expense increased 12 % from $ 101,271 in 2019 to $ 113,661 in 2020 , primarily due to increases in internally developed software amortization expense of $ 6,628 and intangible asset amortization expense of $ 5,107. as a percentage of total revenues , depreciation and amortization expense remained consistent at 11 % in 2019 and 2020. interest income interest income decreased from $ 3,347 in 2019 to $ 1,112 in 2020 , primarily due to less interest earned on our bank accounts and money market funds . while our cash and cash equivalent balance increased significantly in 2020 as a result of the proceeds we received from our convertible debt offering in august 2020 , interest earned on this cash continued to be low . interest expense interest expense decreased 3 % from $ 32,520 in 2019 to $ 31,504 in 2020 , primarily due to the payment of $ 345,000 of convertible notes in december 2019 and the paydown of our revolving credit facility in 2020 , partially offset by additional interest incurred on the issuance of convertible notes due 2025 in august 2020. as a percentage of total revenues , interest expense decreased from 4 % in 2019 to 3 % in 2020 . 43 table of contents other income ( expense ) , net other income ( expense ) , net increased from other expense of $ 2,849 in 2019 to other income of $ 2,906 in 2020 , primarily due to a gain of $ 4,230 recognized in 2020 on the remeasurement of our previously held interest in the private financial technology design company , a gain of $ 2,524 as a result of a fair value adjustment upon settlement of our former chief executive officer 's stock options and a gain on the sale of our interest held in a private company of $ 1,647. this increase was partially offset by additional equity method losses of $ 3,038 recorded in 2020 as compared to 2019. income tax provision

during the year ended december 31 , 2011 , 2010 and 2009 , the company recognized $ 4.5 million , $ 6.7 million and $ 8.3 million ( pre-tax ) of restructuring charges , primarily related to the closure of facilities , capacity reductions and costs associated with involuntary termination of employees in connection with reductions in workforce of certain facilities worldwide . 30 we believe that our global manufacturing presence increases our ability to be responsive to our customers ' needs by providing accelerated time-to-market and time-to-volume production of high quality products . these capabilities enable us to build stronger strategic relationships with our customers and to become a more integral part of their operations . our customers face challenges in planning , procuring and managing their inventories efficiently due to customer demand fluctuations , product design changes , short product life cycles and component price fluctuations . we employ production management systems to manage their procurement and manufacturing processes in an efficient and cost-effective manner so that , where possible , components arrive on a just-in-time , as-and-when-needed basis . we are a significant purchaser of electronic components and other raw materials , and can capitalize on the economies of scale associated with our relationships with suppliers to negotiate price discounts , obtain components and other raw materials that are in short supply , and return excess components . our expertise in supply chain management and our relationships with suppliers across the supply chain enables us to reduce our customers ' cost of goods sold and inventory exposure . we recognize revenue from the sale of manufactured products built to customer specifications and excess inventory when title and risk of ownership have passed , the price to the buyer is fixed and determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured , which generally is when the goods are shipped . revenue from design , development and engineering services is recognized when the services are performed and collectibility is reasonably certain . such services provided under fixed price contracts are accounted for using the percentage of completion method . we generally assume no significant obligations after product shipment as we typically warrant workmanship only . therefore , our warranty provisions are generally not significant . our cost of sales includes the cost of materials , electronic components and other materials that comprise the products we manufacture , the cost of labor and manufacturing overhead , and adjustments for excess and obsolete inventory . our procurement of materials for production requires us to commit significant working capital to our operations and to manage the purchasing , receiving , inspection and stocking of materials . although we bear the risk of fluctuations in the cost of materials and excess scrap , we periodically negotiate cost of materials adjustments with our customers . our gross margin for any product depends on the sales price , the proportionate mix of the cost of materials in the product and the cost of labor and manufacturing overhead allocated to the product . we typically have the potential to realize higher gross margins on products where the proportionate level of labor and manufacturing overhead is greater than that of materials . as we gain experience in manufacturing a product , we usually achieve increased efficiencies , which result in lower labor and manufacturing overhead costs for that product and higher gross margins . our operating results are impacted by the level of capacity utilization of manufacturing facilities . operating income margins have generally improved during periods of high production volume and high capacity utilization . during periods of low production volume , we generally have idle capacity and reduced operating income margins . severe flooding in thailand and suspension of thailand operations our facilities in ayudhaya , thailand were flooded and remained closed from october 13 , 2011 to december 20 , 2011. as a result of the flooding and temporary closing of our facilities , we recognized estimated property losses of $ 46.2 million and incurred $ 13.4 million of flood related costs in 2011. we carry property and business interruption insurance that we believe is appropriate and adequate for this situation . our combined limit for real and personal property as well as business interruption insurance is approximately $ 300 million . as such , we have recorded estimated recoveries from insurance for these property losses and flood related costs totaling $ 56.2 million . as of december 31 , 2011 , thailand flood related charges , net of insurance recoveries , were as follows ( in thousands ) : inventory losses $ 39,919 property , plant and equipment losses 6,233 other flood related costs 13,362 59,514 estimated insurance recoveries recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets ( 56,152 ) $ 3,362 31 the ayudhaya , thailand facilities are among our largest , generating approximately 24 % of our revenue in the first nine months of 2011. as a result , the impact on revenue and operations was significant in the fourth quarter of 2011 and will be significant for the next several fiscal quarters . we are managing the situation on an on-going basis and are working to mitigate the impact to us and our customers . we and our customers implemented contingency and recovery plans as a result of the flood to help enable us to meet customer needs . as part of those plans , we restarted production at our korat , thailand facility in november 2011 , and we shifted production from our ayudhaya facilities to our various other sites around the globe . story_separator_special_tag developments adverse to our major customers or their products , or the failure of a major customer to pay for components or services , could have an adverse effect on us . adverse worldwide economic conditions have impacted our customers . see note 10 to the consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report . a substantial percentage of our sales have been made to a small number of customers , and the loss of a major customer , if not replaced , would adversely affect us . sales to our ten largest customers represented 53 % and 47 % of our sales in 2011 and 2010 , respectively . in 2011 , sales to international business machines corporation represented 14 % of our sales . no one customer represented 10 % or more of our sales in 2010. our international operations are subject to the risks of doing business abroad . see item 1a for factors pertaining to our international sales and fluctuations in the exchange rates of foreign currency and for further discussion of potential adverse effects in operating results associated with the risks of doing business abroad . during 2011 and 2010 , 51 % and 48 % , respectively , of our sales were from our international operations . we had a backlog of approximately $ 1.6 billion at december 31 , 2011 , as compared to the 2010 year-end backlog of $ 1.5 billion . backlog consists of purchase orders received , including , in some instances , forecast requirements released for production under customer contracts . although we expect to fill substantially all of our backlog at december 31 , 2011 during 2012 , we do not have long-term agreements with all of our customers and customer orders can be canceled , changed or delayed by customers . the timely replacement of canceled , changed or delayed orders with orders from new customers can not be assured , nor can there be any assurance that any of our current customers will continue to utilize our services . because of these factors , backlog is not a meaningful indicator of future financial results . 36 gross profit gross profit decreased 26 % to $ 138.8 million for 2011 from $ 187.4 million in 2010. the impact on revenue and operations from the flooding in thailand was significant in the fourth quarter of 2011. in addition to the lower sales volume and the resulting under-absorbed manufacturing overhead costs , the decrease in gross profit was also a result of $ 4.4 million of settlement costs associated with the transfer of a major program , new program ramp costs and capacity expansion costs , primarily in asia , incurred in 2011. our gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 6.2 % for the year ended december 31 , 2011 from 7.8 % in the same period of 2010 primarily due to lower sales volumes , product mix , new program ramp costs and capacity expansion costs , primarily in asia , which resulted in under-absorbed manufacturing overhead costs , as well as the settlement costs noted above . we experience fluctuations in gross profit from period to period . different programs contribute different gross profits depending on factors such as the types of services involved , location of production , size of the program , complexity of the product , and level of material costs associated with the various products . moreover , new programs can contribute relatively less to our gross profit in their early stages when manufacturing volumes are usually lower , resulting in inefficiencies and under-absorbed manufacturing overhead costs . in addition , a number of our new and higher volume programs remain subject to competitive constraints that could exert downward pressure on our margins . during periods of low production volume , we generally have idle capacity and reduced gross profit . selling , general and administrative expenses selling , general and administrative expenses decreased 3 % to $ 89.7 million in 2011 from $ 92.2 million in 2010 primarily due to reduced stock-based compensation expenses , decreased overhead resulting from cost controls and lower variable compensation expenses , which were partially offset by higher other employee related costs . selling , general and administrative expenses , as a percentage of sales , were 4.0 % and 3.8 % , respectively , for 2011 and 2010. the increase in selling , general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales is due to the impact of lower sales volumes during 2011. restructuring charges we recognized $ 4.5 million in restructuring charges during 2011 primarily related to the decision to close our dublin , ireland facility . the recognition of the restructuring charges requires that we make certain judgments and estimates regarding the nature , timing and amount of costs associated with planned exit activities . to the extent our actual results in exiting these facilities differ from our estimates and assumptions , we may be required to revise the estimates of future liabilities , requiring the recognition of additional restructuring charges or the reduction of liabilities already recognized . at the end of each reporting period , we evaluate the remaining accrued balances to ensure that no excess accruals are retained and the utilization of the provisions are for their intended purpose in accordance with developed exit plans . see note 16 to the consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report . thailand flood related charges , net of insurance we recognized $ 3.4 million in thailand flood related charges , net of estimated insurance recoveries during the fourth quarter of 2011. see note 16 to the consolidated financial statements in item 8 of this report . income tax expense ( benefit ) income tax benefit of $ 10.8 million represented a negative effective tax rate of 26.3 % for 2011 , compared with income tax expense of $ 7.3 million at an effective tax rate of 8.3
liquidity and capital resources we have historically financed our growth and operations through funds generated from operations and proceeds from the sale and maturity of our investments . cash and cash equivalents totaled $ 283.9 million at december 31 , 2011 and $ 346.3 million at december 31 , 2010 , of which $ 195.9 million at december 31 , 2011 and $ 241.6 million at december 31 , 2010 was held outside the u.s. in various foreign subsidiaries . substantially all of the amounts held outside of the u.s. are intended to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations . under current tax laws and regulations , if cash and cash equivalents held outside the u.s. were to be distributed to the u.s. in the form of dividends or otherwise , we would be subject to additional u.s. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes . cash provided by operating activities was $ 54.8 million in 2011. the cash provided by operations during 2011 consisted primarily of net income of $ 52.0 million adjusted for $ 35.5 million of depreciation and amortization , $ 46.5 million of asset impairments , a $ 27.7 million decrease in accounts receivable , a $ 12.1 decrease in prepaid expense and other assets and a $ 28.4 million increase in accounts payable offset by a $ 56.2 million insurance receivable , a $ 72.7 million increase in inventories and $ 18.0 million of deferred income taxes . working capital was $ 849.0 million at december 31 , 2011 and $ 891.6 million at december 31 , 2010. we are continuing the practice of purchasing components only after customer orders or forecasts are received , which mitigates , but does not eliminate , the risk of loss on inventories . supplies of electronic components and other materials used in operations are subject to industry-wide shortages . in certain instances , suppliers may allocate available quantities to us . if shortages of these components and other material supplies used in operations occur , vendors may not ship the quantities we need for production and we may be forced to delay shipments , which would increase backorders and therefore impact cash flows .

redemption date and a make-whole amount . as of december 31 , 2020 , we have a borrowing capacity of $ 1.2 billion on our line of credit ( โ€œ line โ€ ) . at december 31 , 2020 , our pro-rata net debt-to-operating ebitda re ratio on a trailing twelve month basis was 6.0x as compared to 5.4x at december 31 , 2019. subsequent to december 31 , 2020 , we repaid our $ 265 million term loan , leaving us with no unsecured debt maturities until 2024. subsequent to december 31 , 2020 , we extended our line maturity date to march 2025 , retaining the same $ 1.25 billion borrowing commitment . 40 leasing activity and significant tenants we believe our high-quality , grocery anchored shopping centers located in densely populated , desirable infill trade areas create attractive spaces for retail and service providers to operate their businesses . pro-rata percent leased the following table summarizes pro-rata percent leased of our combined consolidated and unconsolidated shopping center portfolio : replace_table_token_20_th our percent leased in both the anchor and shop space categories declined during 2020 due to tenant closures and bankruptcies primarily as a result from the impacts of the pandemic . additionally , a number of tenants at our properties were either required or elected to temporarily close due to the pandemic . some of these tenants may be unable to sustain their business models in this current pandemic environment and may fail . while the pandemic continues , we may be unable to find suitable replacement tenants for an extended period of time and the terms of the leases with replacement tenants may be less favorable to us . as such , our percent leased could decline further in future periods , resulting in reduced lease income from both lower base rent and recoveries from tenants for cam , real estate taxes , and insurance costs at our centers . pro-rata leasing activity the following table summarizes leasing activity , including our pro-rata share of activity within the portfolio of our co-investment partnerships : replace_table_token_21_th replace_table_token_22_th new leasing activity has declined as many businesses delay executing leases amidst the immediate and uncertain future economic impacts from the pandemic ; however , renewal leasing activity has remained consistent with 2019 levels . new and renewal rent spreads , as compared to prior rents on these same spaces leased , remained positive at 2.2 % for the twelve months ended december 31 , 2020 , although the spreads tightened throughout the year as compared to 5.7 % for the twelve months ended december 31 , 2019. with 41 the average annual base rent of all shop space leases due to expire during the next 12 months of $ 33.37 psf , there is a possibility of negative rent spreads occurring as we execute new or renewal lease deals , considering the t otal weighted average base rent on signed shop space leases during 2020 was lower at $ 32.87 psf . significant tenants and concentrations of risk we seek to reduce our operating and leasing risks through geographic diversification and by avoiding dependence on any single property , market , or tenant . based on percentage of annualized base rent , the following table summarizes our most significant tenants , of which the top four are grocers : replace_table_token_23_th ( 1 ) includes regency 's pro-rata share of unconsolidated properties and excludes those owned by anchors . bankruptcies and credit concerns the impact of bankruptcies may increase significantly if tenants occupying our centers are unable to withstand and recover from the disruptions caused by the pandemic , which could materially adversely impact our lease income . since the pandemic began , we have seen an increase in the number of tenants filing for bankruptcy . due to the pandemic there has been and continues to be a greater focus on whether tenants ' businesses are considered essential or non-essential , which may directly impact the tenants ' ability to operate and generate sufficient cash flows to meet their operating expenses , including lease payments . continued higher unemployment levels could also negatively impact consumer spending and , along with large-scale business failures , have an adverse effect on our results from operations . we seek to mitigate these potential impacts through tenant diversification , replacing weaker tenants with stronger operators , anchoring our centers with market leading grocery stores that drive customer traffic , and maintaining a presence in affluent suburbs and dense infill trade areas . as of december 31 , 2020 , approximately 63 % of pro-rata average base rent in our portfolio is derived from tenants ' businesses classified as essential . since the pandemic began , the company has been closely monitoring its cash collections which significantly declined from historic levels in the initial months of the pandemic , most notably from tenants whose businesses are classified as non-essential . the pandemic has continued to result in certain tenants requesting concessions from rent obligations , including deferrals , abatements and requests to negotiate future rents , while some tenants have been unable to reopen or have not honored the terms of their existing lease agreements . the company has entered into approximately 1,600 agreements , representing $ 40.8 million of pro-rata base rent or 4.6 % of our total annual base rent , with tenants within our consolidated real estate portfolio and our unconsolidated real estate investment partnerships , enabling them to defer a portion of their rental payments and repay them over future periods . the company expects to continue to work with other tenants , which may result in further rent concessions or legal actions as determined to be necessary and appropriate . story_separator_special_tag after repaying our $ 265 million term loan and funding our dividend payment in january 2021 with cash on hand , we estimate that we will require capital during the next twelve months of approximately $ 353.6 million to repay maturing debt , to fund construction and related costs for committed tenant improvements and in-process development and redevelopment , and to make capital contributions to our co-investment partnerships . if we start new developments or redevelopments , commit to new acquisitions , prepay debt prior to maturity , or repurchase shares of our common stock , our cash requirements will increase . the combination of our $ 1.2 billion capacity available on our line and no unsecured debt maturities until 2024 strengthens our financial position enabling us to fund our expected near-term operating and capital expenditures amid the uncertainty of operating cash flows during this pandemic and recovery period . we expect to generate the necessary cash to fund our long-term capital needs from cash flow from operations , borrowings from our line , proceeds from the sale of real estate , mortgage loan and unsecured bank financing , and when the capital markets are favorable , proceeds from the sale of equity or the issuance of new unsecured debt . we endeavor to maintain a high percentage of unencumbered assets , as measured by 89.6 % of our wholly-owned real estate assets being unencumbered at december 31 , 2020. such assets allow us to access the secured and unsecured debt markets and to maintain availability on the line . our trailing twelve month fixed charge coverage ratio , including our pro-rata share of our partnerships , was 3.6x and 4.3x for the periods ended december 31 , 2020 and 2019 , respectively , and our pro-rata net debt-to-operating ebitda re ratio on a trailing twelve month basis was 6.0x and 5.4x , respectively , for the same periods . we expect that these ratios could worsen during 2021 as a result of potential further impacts from the ongoing pandemic . our line , term loan , and unsecured debt require that we remain in compliance with various covenants , which are described in note 9 to the consolidated financial statements . we are in compliance with these covenants at december 31 , 2020 , and expect to remain in compliance . summary of cash flow activity the following table summarizes net cash flows related to operating , investing , and financing activities of the company : replace_table_token_34_th net cash provided by operating activities : net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $ 122.2 million due to : $ 129.0 million decrease in cash flows from operating income , largely resulting from lower rent collections attributable to the impact of the pandemic on our tenants . however , we continue to negotiate with some of our tenants on repayment periods and since the pandemic began , we have executed approximately 1,600 rent deferral agreements , representing $ 40.8 million of rent or 4.6 % of annual base rent , within our consolidated and unconsolidated real estate portfolios . the weighted average deferral period of these agreements is approximately 3.3 months , with repayment periods of approximately 9.7 months beginning in december 2020. due to the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic , there can be no assurances how much deferred rent will ultimately be paid , or paid within the timeframes negotiated and agreed upon . the duration and severity of the pandemic will continue to impact our ability to generate cash flow from operations ; offset by , $ 6.9 million increase from cash paid in 2019 to settle treasury rate locks put in place to hedge changes in interest rates on our 30 year fixed rate debt offering and to settle an interest rate swap on the repayment of our $ 300 million term loan , both during 2019 . 50 net cash used in investing activities : net cash used in investing activities changed by $ 257.1 million as follows : replace_table_token_35_th significant investing activities included : we acquired one operating property for $ 16.9 million during 2020 and four operating properties for $ 222.4 million during 2019. we invested $ 19.2 million less in 2020 than 2019 on real estate development , redevelopment , and capital improvements , as further detailed in a table below . we received proceeds of $ 189.4 million from the sale of 6 shopping centers and 11 land parcels in 2020 , including proceeds from a short term note issued at closing and repaid during the same period , compared to $ 137.6 million for 7 shopping centers and 6 land parcels in 2019. we received property insurance claim proceeds of $ 8.0 million during 2020 primarily related to a single property damaged by a tornado in 2020 and additional proceeds received on prior year fire and tornado claims . we received proceeds of $ 9.4 million during 2019 attributable to a single property that was severely damaged by a tornado in that year . we invested $ 51.4 million in our real estate partnerships during 2020 , including : o $ 19.6 million to fund our share of development and redevelopment activities , o $ 16.0 million to fund our share of acquiring an additional equity interest in one partnership , and o $ 15.8 million to fund our share of debt refinancing activities . during the same period in 2019 , we invested $ 66.9 million in our real estate partnerships , including : o $ 44.3 million to fund our share of development and redevelopment activities , o $ 9.7 million to fund our share of acquiring an additional equity interest in one partnership , o $ 8.2 million to fund our share of acquiring land under one shopping center that was previously under a ground lease , and o $ 4.7 million to fund our share of repayments for maturing debt . return of capital from our

noninterest income to average assets is a ratio that reflects our effectiveness in generating these other forms of revenue . the company incurs noninterest expenses as result of the operations of the business . primary expenses are those of employees , occupancy and equipment , professional services , and data processing . the company seeks to minimize the amount of non-interest expense relative to the amount of total assets ; non-interest expense to assets is a key ratio that measures the efficiency of the costs incurred to operate the business . 28 executive summary the following is a summary of the company 's financial highlights and significant events during 2016 : the company merged cornerstone community bank into smartbank in the first quarter of 2016. earnings available to common shareholders were approximately $ 4.8 million , or $ 0.78 per diluted common share , in 2016 , compared to $ 1.4 million , or $ 0.32 per diluted share , in 2015 . return on average assets was 0.57 percent for 2016 , compared to 0.22 percent for 2015 . return on average equity was 5.59 percent in 2016 , compared to 2.15 percent in 2015 , and 3.41 percent in 2014. non-performing assets to total assets in 2016 were 0.42 percent , an improvement from 0.79 percent in 2015 . net interest margin , fully taxable equivalent , remained above 4 percent at 4.06 percent for 2016 . efficiency ratio , fully taxable equivalent , of 75.7 percent in 2016 was down substantially from 85.0 percent in 2015 . analysis of results of operations 2016 compared to 2015 net income was $ 5.8 million in 2016 , which was up substantially from $ 1.5 million in 2015 . net income available to common shareholders was $ 4.8 million , or $ 0.78 per diluted common share , in 2016 , an increase from $ 1.4 million , or $ 0.32 per diluted common share , in 2015 . net interest income to average assets of 3.77 percent in 2016 was up from 3.66 percent in 2015 , with the increase as a result of a higher percentage of average earning assets to average total assets . noninterest income to average assets of 0.41 percent was up from 0.33 percent in 2015 as a result of increases in customer service fees , higher gains on the sale of securities , gains on the sale of loans and other assets compared to losses in 2015 , and higher other noninterest income . noninterest expense to average assets decreased from 3.39 percent in 2015 to 3.20 percent in 2016 due to realized efficiencies of scale and the absences of merger and conversion related costs . the resulting pretax income to average assets was 0.95 percent in 2016 compared to 0.46 percent in 2015 . finally , in 2016 the effective tax rate was 36.70 percent , which was down substantially from 2015 when taxes were elevated due to merger and acquisition expenses which were nondeductible . 2015 compared to 2014 net income was $ 1.5 million in 2015 , which was down from $ 1.8 million in 2014. net income available to common shareholders was $ 1.4 million , or $ 0.32 per diluted common share , in 2015 , a decrease from $ 1.7 million , or $ 0.52 per diluted common share , in 2014. net interest income to average assets of 3.66 percent in 2015 was down from 3.71 percent in 2014 , with the decrease as a result of lower rates on earning assets . noninterest income to average assets of 0.33 percent was up substantially from 0.22 percent in 2014 as a result of gains on the sale of foreclosed assets in 2015 compared to losses in 2014. noninterest expense to average assets increased from 3.26 percent in 2014 to 3.39 percent in 2015 due to merger and conversion related costs . the resulting pretax income to average assets was 0.46 percent in 2015 compared to 0.57 percent in 2014. finally , in 2015 taxes were elevated by $ 0.3 million due to merger and acquisition expenses which were nondeductible . net interest income and yield analysis 2016 compared to 2015 net interest income , taxable equivalent , improved to $ 38.3 million in 2016 from $ 25.0 million in 2015 . the increase in net interest income , taxable equivalent , was the result of a significant increase in earning assets primarily from the merger but also from organic business activity . average earning assets increased from $ 615.3 million in 2015 to $ 944.6 million in 2016 . over this period , average loan balances increased by 282,537 thousand and average securities and interest bearing balances at other financial institutions increased by $ 54.1 million . in addition , total average interest-bearing deposits increased by $ 219.0 million . net interest income to average assets of 3.77 percent in 2016 was up from 3.66 percent in 2015 . net interest margin , taxable equivalent , was 4.06 percent in 2016 , compared to 4.07 percent in 2015 . net interest margin , taxable equivalent , was negatively affected by an increase in the cost of interest bearing liabilities from 0.52 percent in 2015 to 0.56 percent in 2016 . in 2017 we expect net interest income to average assets and net interest margin , taxable equivalent , to experience pressure as most new assets will be lower yielding and there is the potential for pressure to increase deposit rates as short term rates increase . 29 2015 compared to 2014 net interest income improved to $ 25.0 million in 2015 from $ 18.7 million in 2014 . the increase in net interest income was the result of a significant increase in earning assets primarily from the merger but also from organic business activity . average earning assets increased from $ 455.5 million in 2014 to $ 615.3 million in 2015 . story_separator_special_tag potential problem loans , which are not included in nonperforming loans , represent those loans with a well-defined weakness and where information about possible credit problems of borrowers has caused management to have doubts about the borrower 's ability to comply with present repayment terms . this definition is believed to be substantially consistent with the standards established by the bank 's primary regulators , for loans classified as substandard or worse , but not considered nonperforming loans . allocation of the allowance for loan losses we maintain the allowance at a level that we deem appropriate to adequately cover the probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio . as of december 31 , 2016 and december 31 , 2015 , our allowance for loan losses was $ 5.1 million and $ 4.4 million , respectively , which we deemed to be adequate at each of the respective dates . the increase in the allowance for loan losses in 2016 as compared to 2015 is primarily the result of increases in organic loan growth offset slightly by improving overall credit metrics within our portfolio , including the reduction in net charge-offs . our allowance for loan loss as a percentage of total loans has increased from 0.60 percent at december 31 , 2015 to 0.63 percent at december 31 , 2016 , as a result of the increase in organic loan balances as a

Suspicious Activity Report : noninterest income to average assets is a ratio that reflects our effectiveness in generating these other forms of revenue . the company incurs noninterest expenses as result of the operations of the business . primary expenses are those of employees , occupancy and equipment , professional services , and data processing . the company seeks to minimize the amount of non-interest expense relative to the amount of total assets ; non-interest expense to assets is a key ratio that measures the efficiency of the costs incurred to operate the business . 28 executive summary the following is a summary of the company 's financial highlights and significant events during 2016 : the company merged cornerstone community bank into smartbank in the first quarter of 2016. earnings available to common shareholders were approximately $ 4.8 million , or $ 0.78 per diluted common share , in 2016 , compared to $ 1.4 million , or $ 0.32 per diluted share , in 2015 . return on average assets was 0.57 percent for 2016 , compared to 0.22 percent for 2015 . return on average equity was 5.59 percent in 2016 , compared to 2.15 percent in 2015 , and 3.41 percent in 2014. non-performing assets to total assets in 2016 were 0.42 percent , an improvement from 0.79 percent in 2015 . net interest margin , fully taxable equivalent , remained above 4 percent at 4.06 percent for 2016 . efficiency ratio , fully taxable equivalent , of 75.7 percent in 2016 was down substantially from 85.0 percent in 2015 . analysis of results of operations 2016 compared to 2015 net income was $ 5.8 million in 2016 , which was up substantially from $ 1.5 million in 2015 . net income available to common shareholders was $ 4.8 million , or $ 0.78 per diluted common share , in 2016 , an increase from $ 1.4 million , or $ 0.32 per diluted common share , in 2015 . net interest income to average assets of 3.77 percent in 2016 was up from 3.66 percent in 2015 , with the increase as a result of a higher percentage of average earning assets to average total assets . noninterest income to average assets of 0.41 percent was up from 0.33 percent in 2015 as a result of increases in customer service fees , higher gains on the sale of securities , gains on the sale of loans and other assets compared to losses in 2015 , and higher other noninterest income . noninterest expense to average assets decreased from 3.39 percent in 2015 to 3.20 percent in 2016 due to realized efficiencies of scale and the absences of merger and conversion related costs . the resulting pretax income to average assets was 0.95 percent in 2016 compared to 0.46 percent in 2015 . finally , in 2016 the effective tax rate was 36.70 percent , which was down substantially from 2015 when taxes were elevated due to merger and acquisition expenses which were nondeductible . 2015 compared to 2014 net income was $ 1.5 million in 2015 , which was down from $ 1.8 million in 2014. net income available to common shareholders was $ 1.4 million , or $ 0.32 per diluted common share , in 2015 , a decrease from $ 1.7 million , or $ 0.52 per diluted common share , in 2014. net interest income to average assets of 3.66 percent in 2015 was down from 3.71 percent in 2014 , with the decrease as a result of lower rates on earning assets . noninterest income to average assets of 0.33 percent was up substantially from 0.22 percent in 2014 as a result of gains on the sale of foreclosed assets in 2015 compared to losses in 2014. noninterest expense to average assets increased from 3.26 percent in 2014 to 3.39 percent in 2015 due to merger and conversion related costs . the resulting pretax income to average assets was 0.46 percent in 2015 compared to 0.57 percent in 2014. finally , in 2015 taxes were elevated by $ 0.3 million due to merger and acquisition expenses which were nondeductible . net interest income and yield analysis 2016 compared to 2015 net interest income , taxable equivalent , improved to $ 38.3 million in 2016 from $ 25.0 million in 2015 . the increase in net interest income , taxable equivalent , was the result of a significant increase in earning assets primarily from the merger but also from organic business activity . average earning assets increased from $ 615.3 million in 2015 to $ 944.6 million in 2016 . over this period , average loan balances increased by 282,537 thousand and average securities and interest bearing balances at other financial institutions increased by $ 54.1 million . in addition , total average interest-bearing deposits increased by $ 219.0 million . net interest income to average assets of 3.77 percent in 2016 was up from 3.66 percent in 2015 . net interest margin , taxable equivalent , was 4.06 percent in 2016 , compared to 4.07 percent in 2015 . net interest margin , taxable equivalent , was negatively affected by an increase in the cost of interest bearing liabilities from 0.52 percent in 2015 to 0.56 percent in 2016 . in 2017 we expect net interest income to average assets and net interest margin , taxable equivalent , to experience pressure as most new assets will be lower yielding and there is the potential for pressure to increase deposit rates as short term rates increase . 29 2015 compared to 2014 net interest income improved to $ 25.0 million in 2015 from $ 18.7 million in 2014 . the increase in net interest income was the result of a significant increase in earning assets primarily from the merger but also from organic business activity . average earning assets increased from $ 455.5 million in 2014 to $ 615.3 million in 2015 . story_separator_special_tag potential problem loans , which are not included in nonperforming loans , represent those loans with a well-defined weakness and where information about possible credit problems of borrowers has caused management to have doubts about the borrower 's ability to comply with present repayment terms . this definition is believed to be substantially consistent with the standards established by the bank 's primary regulators , for loans classified as substandard or worse , but not considered nonperforming loans . allocation of the allowance for loan losses we maintain the allowance at a level that we deem appropriate to adequately cover the probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio . as of december 31 , 2016 and december 31 , 2015 , our allowance for loan losses was $ 5.1 million and $ 4.4 million , respectively , which we deemed to be adequate at each of the respective dates . the increase in the allowance for loan losses in 2016 as compared to 2015 is primarily the result of increases in organic loan growth offset slightly by improving overall credit metrics within our portfolio , including the reduction in net charge-offs . our allowance for loan loss as a percentage of total loans has increased from 0.60 percent at december 31 , 2015 to 0.63 percent at december 31 , 2016 , as a result of the increase in organic loan balances as a percentage of the total portfolio . as a percentage of organic loans the allowance for loan losses decreased from 0.95 percent at december 31 , 2015 to

through this network approach , we seek to enable high-capacity , configurable infrastructures that can adapt to the changing needs of end-users and the applications that they require , while providing flexible interfaces for the integration of computing , storage and network resources . by increasing network flexibility for service delivery , reducing required network elements and enabling increased scale at reduced cost , our solutions simplify networks . at the same time , our approach facilitates the creation of new service offerings , creating business and operational value for our customers . our op n architecture , which underpins our solutions offering and guides our research and development strategy , is described more fully in the โ€œ strategy โ€ section of the description of our business under item 1 of part 1 of this annual report . our quarterly reports on form 10-q , annual reports on form 10-k and current reports on form 8-k filed with the sec are available through the sec 's website at www.sec.gov or free of charge on our website as soon as reasonably practicable after we file these documents . we routinely post the reports above , recent news and announcements , financial results and other information about ciena that is important to investors in the `` investors `` section of our website at www.ciena.com . investors are encouraged to review the โ€œ investors โ€ section of our website because , as with the other disclosure channels that we use , from time to time we may post material information on that site that is not otherwise disseminated by us . 33 market opportunity and strategy we believe that the shift that is underway in network architectures to next-generation , converged infrastructures represents significant , long-term opportunities for our business . we believe that market trends underlying this shift , including the proliferation of devices running mobile web applications , the prevalence of video applications , the increase in machine-to-machine connections , and the shift of enterprise and consumer applications to cloud-based or virtualized network environments , are indicative of increasing use and dependence by consumers and enterprises upon a growing variety of broadband applications and services . we expect that these drivers will continue to require network operators to invest in converged next-generation network infrastructures that are more automated , open and software programmable . our corporate strategy to capitalize on these market dynamics , promote operational efficiency and drive profitable growth of our business includes the initiatives set forth in the `` strategy `` section of the description of our business in item 1 of part 1 of this annual report . global market conditions and competitive landscape during fiscal 2013 , we gained considerable momentum in our business and financial results and experienced a steadily improving market environment , particularly as reflected in the spending patterns and decisions of our largest north american service provider customers . we believe that this spending reflects customer preference of , and a shift in network spending toward , high-capacity , next-generation network architectures . improved conditions during fiscal 2013 followed a lengthy period of macroeconomic uncertainty and volatility , which caused cautious customer behavior in our industry and markets . these conditions , most notably in europe , had previously resulted in lower levels of capital expenditure on communications network infrastructure . because the market opportunity and improved conditions during fiscal 2013 described above are in their early stages , we remain uncertain as to their longer-term effect on the growth of our markets and business , as well as our results of operations . although we are beginning to see network operators adopt converged network architectures that align well with our op n architecture and solutions offering , particularly in north america , competition in our sector remains significant . we continue to encounter a highly competitive marketplace , particularly for our converged packet optical products , as we and our competitors have introduced new , high-capacity , high-speed network solutions and have aggressively sought to capture market share . in this intense and fragmented competitive environment , securing new opportunities , particularly in international markets , often requires that we agree to unfavorable commercial terms that can elongate the revenue recognition cycle , add startup costs to deployment of our solutions in customer networks , require financial commitments or performance bonds that place cash resources at risk , and other onerous contractual commitments that place a disproportionate allocation of risk upon the vendor . these terms can adversely affect our results of operations and contribute to fluctuations in our results . we expect the competitive landscape to remain challenging and dynamic as we and other multinational equipment vendors introduce new , competing , next-generation platforms , seek adoption of network architectural approaches and compete to obtain new business or retain incumbent positions with large customers around the world . as networking technologies , features or layers converge , our competitive landscape may broaden beyond traditional competitors to include additional competitors focused on ip routing , information technology and software . operational reorganization to address the growing need to transport , aggregate and manage multiple types of services , network operators are increasingly demanding and adopting solutions that enable the convergence of both network functions and network layers , particularly the integration of transport , otn switching and packet switching capabilities . our op n architecture and our continued development and addition of features to our solutions portfolio are intended to address the market and networking design dynamics faced by network operators . specifically , we continue to converge otn switching and packet switching functionality into our coherent optical transport solutions . at the same time , we are integrating more transport functionality and packet switching into our switching platforms . story_separator_special_tag our gross profit as a percentage of revenue , or โ€œ gross margin , โ€ is susceptible to fluctuations due to a number of factors . in any given period , gross margin can vary significantly depending upon the mix and concentration of revenue by segment , product line within a particular segment , geography , and customers . gross margin can also be affected by our concentration of lower margin `` common `` equipment sales and higher margin channel cards , the mix of lower margin installation services within our service revenue , our introduction of new products , and changes in expense for excess and obsolete inventory and warranty obligations . we expect that gross margins will be subject to fluctuation based on our level of success in driving product cost reductions , rationalizing our supply chain and consolidating third party contract manufacturers and distribution sites as part of our effort to optimize our operations . gross margin can also be adversely affected by the level of pricing pressure and competition that we encounter in the market . in an effort to retain or secure customers , enter new markets or capture market share , we may agree to pricing or other unfavorable commercial terms that result in lower or negative gross margins on a particular order or group of orders . these market dynamics and factors may adversely affect our gross margin and results of operations in certain periods . service gross margin can be affected by the mix of customers and services , particularly the mix between deployment and maintenance services , geographic mix and the timing and extent of any investments in internal resources to support this business . the tables below ( in thousands , except percentage data ) set forth the changes in revenue , cost of goods sold and gross profit for the periods indicated : replace_table_token_5_th _ * denotes % of total revenue * * denotes % change from 2012 to 2013 39 replace_table_token_6_th

revenue increased as a result of the factors described below . gross profit on products as a percentage of product revenue increased primarily due to improved mix of higher-margin packet platforms with software content , including within our packet networking and converged packet optical segments , higher sales of integrated network service management software , lower warranty costs , and greater leverage from efforts to streamline and optimize our supply chain activities . gross profit on services as a percentage of services revenue increased primarily due to improved margins on installation and deployment services due to improved operational efficiencies , and increased consulting service revenue from our network transformation solutions offering . operating expense we expect operating expense to increase in fiscal 2014 from the level reported for fiscal 2013 to support the growth of our business and fund our research and development initiatives . operating expense consists of the component elements described below . research and development expense primarily consists of salaries and related employee expense ( including share-based compensation expense ) , prototype costs relating to design , development , and testing of our products , depreciation expense and third party consulting costs . selling and marketing expense primarily consists of salaries , commissions and related employee expense ( including share-based compensation expense ) , and sales and marketing support expense , including travel , demonstration units , trade show expense and third party consulting costs . general and administrative expense primarily consists of salaries and related employee expense ( including share-based compensation expense ) , and costs for third party consulting and other services . amortization of intangible assets primarily reflects purchased technology and customer relationships from our acquisitions . restructuring costs primarily reflect actions ciena has taken to better align its workforce , facilities and operating costs with perceived market opportunities , business strategies and changes in market and business conditions . 40 the table below ( in thousands , except percentage data ) sets forth the changes in operating expense for the periods indicated : replace_table_token_8_th _ * denotes % of total revenue * * denotes % change from 2012 to 2013 research and development expense benefited from $ 4.0 million as a result of foreign exchange rates , primarily due to the strengthening of the u.s. dollar in relation to the canadian dollar and the indian rupee . the $ 19.2 million increase primarily reflects increases of $ 15.9 million in employee compensation and related costs , $ 7.5 million in prototype expense , $ 5.2 million in facilities and information systems expense and $ 2.1 million in technology-related purchases . the increase in employee compensation is primarily related to incentive-based compensation . these increases were partially offset by a $ 12.5 million decrease in professional services . selling and marketing expense increased by $ 37.8 million , primarily reflecting increases of $ 26.5 million in employee compensation and related costs , $ 6.8 million in facilities and information systems expense , $ 4.5 million of travel and related costs , $ 2.0 million in trade show and related expense and $ 1.1 million in professional services . a significant portion of our increased employee compensation and related costs reflect commissions-based compensation associated with strong order flows achieved during fiscal 2013. these increases were partially offset by decreases of $ 1.9 million of freight and logistic costs and $ 1.3 million for customer demonstration equipment . general and administrative expense increased by $ 8.4 million primarily reflecting an increase of $ 10.8 million in employee compensation and related costs , partially offset by a $ 2.7 million decrease in facilities and information systems expense . the increase in employee compensation is primarily related to incentive-based compensation . amortization of intangible assets decreased
cash used by increases in accounts receivable during fiscal 2013 , net of $ 2.3 million in provision for doubtful accounts , was $ 145.4 million . our days sales outstanding ( dsos ) increased from 69 days for fiscal 2012 to 84 days for fiscal 2013 . this increase was primarily due to a high volume of sales towards the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013. the following table sets forth ( in thousands ) changes to our accounts receivable , net of allowance for doubtful accounts , from the end of fiscal 2012 through the end of fiscal 2013 : october 31 , increase 2012 2013 ( decrease ) accounts receivable , net $ 345,496 $ 488,578 $ 143,082 inventory cash used by increases in inventory during fiscal 2013 was $ 8.9 million . our inventory turns increased from 3.3 turns during fiscal 2012 to 3.9 turns during fiscal 2013 . during fiscal 2013 , changes in inventory reflect a $ 19.9 million non-cash provision for excess and obsolescence . the following table sets forth changes ( in thousands ) to the components of our inventory from the end of fiscal 2012 through the end fiscal 2013 : replace_table_token_20_th 48 prepaid expenses and other cash used by prepaid expense and other during fiscal 2013 was $ 82.8 million and primarily related to increases in prepaid value added tax , maintenance spares and deferred deployment expense . accounts payable , accruals and other obligations cash generated by a lower utilization of cash resources for accounts payable , accruals and other obligations during fiscal 2013 was $ 115.3 million . changes in accrued liabilities reflect a $ 24.6 million non-cash provision related to warranties .

these documents . we routinely post the reports above , recent news and announcements , financial results and other information about ciena that is important to investors in the `` investors `` section of our website at www.ciena.com . investors are encouraged to review the โ€œ investors โ€ section of our website because , as with the other disclosure channels that we use , from time to time we may post material information on that site that is not otherwise disseminated by us . 33 market opportunity and strategy we believe that the shift that is underway in network architectures to next-generation , converged infrastructures represents significant , long-term opportunities for our business . we believe that market trends underlying this shift , including the proliferation of devices running mobile web applications , the prevalence of video applications , the increase in machine-to-machine connections , and the shift of enterprise and consumer applications to cloud-based or virtualized network environments , are indicative of increasing use and dependence by consumers and enterprises upon a growing variety of broadband applications and services . we expect that these drivers will continue to require network operators to invest in converged next-generation network infrastructures that are more automated , open and software programmable . our corporate strategy to capitalize on these market dynamics , promote operational efficiency and drive profitable growth of our business includes the initiatives set forth in the `` strategy `` section of the description of our business in item 1 of part 1 of this annual report . global market conditions and competitive landscape during fiscal 2013 , we gained considerable momentum in our business and financial results and experienced a steadily improving market environment , particularly as reflected in the spending patterns and decisions of our largest north american service provider customers . we believe that this spending reflects customer preference of , and a shift in network spending toward , high-capacity , next-generation network architectures . improved conditions during fiscal 2013 followed a lengthy period of macroeconomic uncertainty and volatility , which caused cautious customer behavior in our industry and markets . these conditions , most notably in europe , had previously resulted in lower levels of capital expenditure on communications network infrastructure . because the market opportunity and improved conditions during fiscal 2013 described above are in their early stages , we remain uncertain as to their longer-term effect on the growth of our markets and business , as well as our results of operations . although we are beginning to see network operators adopt converged network architectures that align well with our op n architecture and solutions offering , particularly in north america , competition in our sector remains significant . we continue to encounter a highly competitive marketplace , particularly for our converged packet optical products , as we and our competitors have introduced new , high-capacity , high-speed network solutions and have aggressively sought to capture market share . in this intense and fragmented competitive environment , securing new opportunities , particularly in international markets , often requires that we agree to unfavorable commercial terms that can elongate the revenue recognition cycle , add startup costs to deployment of our solutions in customer networks , require financial commitments or performance bonds that place cash resources at risk , and other onerous contractual commitments that place a disproportionate allocation of risk upon the vendor . these terms can adversely affect our results of operations and contribute to fluctuations in our results . we expect the competitive landscape to remain challenging and dynamic as we and other multinational equipment vendors introduce new , competing , next-generation platforms , seek adoption of network architectural approaches and compete to obtain new business or retain incumbent positions with large customers around the world . as networking technologies , features or layers converge , our competitive landscape may broaden beyond traditional competitors to include additional competitors focused on ip routing , information technology and software . operational reorganization to address the growing need to transport , aggregate and manage multiple types of services , network operators are increasingly demanding and adopting solutions that enable the convergence of both network functions and network layers , particularly the integration of transport , otn switching and packet switching capabilities . our op n architecture and our continued development and addition of features to our solutions portfolio are intended to address the market and networking design dynamics faced by network operators . specifically , we continue to converge otn switching and packet switching functionality into our coherent optical transport solutions . at the same time , we are integrating more transport functionality and packet switching into our switching platforms . story_separator_special_tag our gross profit as a percentage of revenue , or โ€œ gross margin , โ€ is susceptible to fluctuations due to a number of factors . in any given period , gross margin can vary significantly depending upon the mix and concentration of revenue by segment , product line within a particular segment , geography , and customers . gross margin can also be affected by our concentration of lower margin `` common `` equipment sales and higher margin channel cards , the mix of lower margin installation services within our service revenue , our introduction of new products , and changes in expense for excess and obsolete inventory and warranty obligations . we expect that gross margins will be subject to fluctuation based on our level of success in driving product cost reductions , rationalizing our supply chain and consolidating third party contract manufacturers and distribution sites as part of our effort to optimize our operations . gross margin can also be adversely affected by the level of pricing pressure and competition that we encounter in the market . in an effort to retain or secure customers , enter new markets or capture market share , we may agree to pricing or other unfavorable commercial terms that result in lower or negative gross margins on a particular order or group of orders . these market dynamics and factors may adversely affect our gross margin and results of operations in certain periods . service gross margin can be affected by the mix of customers and services , particularly the mix between deployment and maintenance services , geographic mix and the timing and extent of any investments in internal resources to support this business . the tables below ( in thousands , except percentage data ) set forth the changes in revenue , cost of goods sold and gross profit for the periods indicated : replace_table_token_5_th _ * denotes % of total

revenue * * denotes % change from 2012 to 2013 gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased as a result of the factors described below . gross profit on products as a percentage of product revenue increased primarily due to improved mix of higher-margin packet platforms with software content , including within our packet networking and converged packet optical segments , higher sales of integrated network service management software , lower warranty costs , and greater leverage from efforts to streamline and optimize our supply chain activities . gross profit on services as a percentage of services revenue increased primarily due to improved margins on installation and deployment services due to improved operational efficiencies , and increased consulting service revenue from our network transformation solutions offering . operating expense we expect operating expense to increase in fiscal 2014 from the level reported for fiscal 2013 to support the growth of our business and fund our research and development initiatives . operating expense consists of the component elements described below . research and development expense primarily consists of salaries and related employee expense ( including share-based compensation expense ) , prototype costs relating to design , development , and testing of our products , depreciation expense and third party consulting costs . selling and marketing expense primarily consists of salaries , commissions and related employee expense ( including share-based compensation expense ) , and sales and marketing support expense , including travel , demonstration units , trade show expense and third party consulting costs . general and administrative expense primarily consists of salaries and related employee expense ( including share-based compensation expense ) , and costs for third party consulting and other services . amortization of intangible assets primarily reflects purchased technology and customer relationships from our acquisitions . restructuring costs primarily reflect actions ciena has taken to better align its workforce , facilities and operating costs with perceived market opportunities , business strategies and changes in market and business conditions . 40 the table below ( in thousands , except percentage data ) sets forth the changes in operating expense for the periods indicated : replace_table_token_8_th _ * denotes % of total revenue * * denotes % change from 2012 to 2013 research and development expense benefited from $ 4.0 million as a result of foreign exchange rates , primarily due to the strengthening of the u.s. dollar in relation to the canadian dollar and the indian rupee . the $ 19.2 million increase primarily reflects increases of $ 15.9 million in employee compensation and related costs , $ 7.5 million in prototype expense , $ 5.2 million in facilities and information systems expense and $ 2.1 million in technology-related purchases . the increase in employee compensation is primarily related to incentive-based compensation . these increases were partially offset by a $ 12.5 million decrease in professional services . selling and marketing expense increased by $ 37.8 million , primarily reflecting increases of $ 26.5 million in employee compensation and related costs , $ 6.8 million in facilities and information systems expense , $ 4.5 million of travel and related costs , $ 2.0 million in trade show and related expense and $ 1.1 million in professional services . a significant portion of our increased employee compensation and related costs reflect commissions-based compensation associated with strong order flows achieved during fiscal 2013. these increases were partially offset by decreases of $ 1.9 million of freight and logistic costs and $ 1.3 million for customer demonstration equipment . general and administrative expense increased by $ 8.4 million primarily reflecting an increase of $ 10.8 million in employee compensation and related costs , partially offset by a $ 2.7 million decrease in facilities and information systems expense . the increase in employee compensation is primarily related to incentive-based compensation . amortization of intangible assets decreased

increases in sales across all major product lines . cgd 's operating income increased 39 % to $ 23.0 million in 2019 compared to $ 16.6 million in 2018 primarily due to the results of cost reduction efforts and reduced r & d expenditures . businesses acquired in 2019 and 2018 generated operating losses of $ 22.9 million in 2019 compared to $ 3.5 million in 2018 , including acquisition-related costs totaling $ 9.7 million in 2019 and $ 1.0 million in 2018 , and including amortization of purchased intangible assets of $ 22.0 million in 2019 and $ 0.5 million in 2018. excluding the gain on sale of fixed assets noted above , the unallocated corporate and other costs were $ 54.3 million in 2019 compared to $ 52.5 million in 2018 , and included expenses related to strategic and it system resource planning as part of our one cubic initiative totaling $ 8.2 million in 2019 and $ 24.1 million in 2018. unallocated corporate costs also include restructuring charges of $ 8.9 million and $ 3.1 million in fiscal years 2019 and 2018 , respectively . the average exchange rates between the prevailing currencies in our foreign operations and the u.s. dollar resulted in a decrease in operating income of $ 3.7 million in 2019 compared to 2018. see the segment discussions below for further analysis of segment operating income . โ€‹ interest and dividend income and interest expense : interest and dividend income was $ 6.5 million in 2019 compared to $ 1.6 million in 2018. the increase in interest income in 2019 was primarily due to the interest income recorded on long-term contracts financing receivables in our consolidated balance sheet . under asc 606 , in 2019 we recognized interest income on such receivables . interest expense was $ 20.5 million in 2019 compared to $ 10.4 million in 2018. the change in interest expense generally reflected the increase in our average outstanding debt balances primarily due to the acquisition of three businesses . โ€‹ other income ( expense ) : other income ( expense ) netted to expense of $ 20.0 million in 2019 and $ 0.7 million in 2018. the nonoperating expense in 2019 included unrealized losses of $ 21.6 million caused by the change in the fair value of an interest rate swap held by a vie that is consolidated by cubic . the 90 percent noncontrolling interest in the net loss of the consolidated vie , which is comprised primarily of the vie 's loss on its interest rate swap , is added back to our net income to arrive at net income attributable to cubic . โ€‹ income tax provision : our income tax provision totaled $ 11.0 million ( effective rate of 21 % ) for fiscal 2019 , compared to an income tax provision of $ 7.1 million ( effective rate of 48 % ) for fiscal 2018. the fiscal 2019 tax provision primarily resulted from tax on foreign earnings and state income tax , partially offset by tax benefits in connection with acquisitions involving significant u.s. deferred tax liabilities which allowed for a subsequent release of deferred tax valuation allowance . the fiscal 2018 tax provision , as a result of the tax cuts and jobs act of 2017 ( u.s. tax reform ) , includes a one-time non-cash tax benefit of $ 7.1 million , primarily related to the re-measurement of certain u.s. deferred tax 43 liabilities and the impact of the utilization of indefinite lived deferred tax liabilities as a source of future taxable income when assessing the realizability of indefinite lived deferred tax assets . โ€‹ until we re-establish a pattern of continuing profitability , in accordance with the applicable

in addition , certain products such as fragrances , sunglasses and eyewear are produced under product licensing agreements . jimmy choo 's design team is led by sandra choi , who has been the creative director for the brand since its inception in 1996. jimmy choo products are unique , instinctively seductive and chic . the brand offers classic and timeless luxury products , as well as innovative products that are intended to set and lead fashion trends . the jimmy choo brand is represented through its global store network , its e-commerce sites , as well as through the most prestigious department and specialty stores worldwide . prior to the third quarter of fiscal 2018 , we had three reportable segments for our michael kors brand : retail , wholesale and licensing . with the acquisition of jimmy choo , the company began to operate in four reportable segments , which are as follows : mk retail โ€” includes sales of michael kors products from 379 retail stores in the americas ( including concessions ) and 450 international retail stores ( including concessions ) in europe and certain parts of asia , as well as from michael kors e-commerce sites in the u.s. , canada , certain parts of europe , china , japan and south korea as of march 31 , 2018 . mk wholesale โ€” includes wholesale sales of michael kors products through 1,403 department store doors and 875 specialty store doors in the americas and through 1,048 specialty store doors and 218 department store doors internationally as of march 31 , 2018 . mk wholesale also includes revenues from sales of products to michael kors geographic licensees . 30 mk licensing โ€” includes royalties and advertising contributions earned on licensed products and use of the company 's trademarks , and rights granted to third parties for the right to operate retail stores and or sell the company 's products in certain geographic regions . jimmy choo โ€” includes worldwide sales of jimmy choo products through 182 retail stores ( including concessions ) and jimmy choo e-commerce sites in the u.s. , certain parts of europe and japan , through 629 wholesale doors , as well as through product and geographic licensing arrangements , as of march 31 , 2018 . certain factors affecting financial condition and results of operations establishing brand identity and enhancing global presence . we intend to grow our international presence through the formation of a global fashion luxury group , bringing together industry-leading fashion luxury brands . as mentioned above , on november 1 , 2017 , we completed our acquisition of jimmy choo for a total transaction value of $ 1.447 billion ( see note 3 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information ) . jimmy choo has a rich history as a leading global luxury house , renowned for its glamorous and fashion-forward footwear , and is an excellent complement to the michael kors brand . we believe this combination further strengthens our future growth opportunities , while also increasing both product and geographic diversification . however , there are risks associated with a new acquisition and the anticipated benefits of the acquisition on our financial results may not be in line with our expectations . we intend to continue to increase our international presence and global brand recognition by growing our existing international operations through acquisitions , the formation of various joint ventures with international partners , and continuing with our international licensing arrangements . we feel this is an efficient method for continued penetration into the global luxury goods market , especially for markets where we have yet to establish a substantial presence . in addition , our growth strategy includes assuming direct control of certain licensed international operations to better manage our growth opportunities in the related regions . on may 31 , 2016 , we acquired the previously licensed business in the greater china region ( โ€œ mkhkl โ€ ) , which has operations in china , hong kong , macau and taiwan . see note 3 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our recent acquisitions . channel shift and demand for our accessories and related merchandise . our performance is affected by trends in the luxury goods industry , as well as shifts in demographics and changes in lifestyle preferences . although the overall consumer spending for personal luxury products has recently increased , consumer shopping preferences have continued to shift from physical stores to on-line shopping . we currently expect that this trend will continue in the foreseeable future . during fiscal 2018 , we have continued to strategically decrease promotional activity , which resulted in a reduction in shipments of michael kors products within our wholesale channel , which we believe is necessary to appropriately position the michael kors brand long-term . in addition , we have been strategically reducing promotional activity within our full-price retail stores . we continue to adjust our operating strategy to the changing business environment and on may 31 , 2017 , we announced that we plan to close between 100 and 125 of our michael kors full-price retail stores over the next two years in order to improve the profitability of our michael kors retail store fleet under our retail fleet optimization plan . over this time period , we expect to incur approximately $ 100 - $ 125 million of one-time costs associated with these store closures . during fiscal 2018 , we closed 47 of our michael kors full-price retail stores under the retail fleet optimization plan , which resulted in restructuring charges of $ 52.6 million recorded within restructuring and other charges in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income . we currently anticipate finalizing the remainder of the planned store closures under the retail fleet optimization plan over the next two fiscal years . story_separator_special_tag based on the results of these assessments , we concluded that the fair values of the michael kors reporting units significantly exceeded the related carrying amounts and there were no reporting units at risk of impairment . the impairment analyses relating to the jimmy choo goodwill and brand were performed using a qualitative approach due to the proximity to the acquisition date and it was concluded that it is more likely than not that the fair value of goodwill and brand exceeded their respective carrying values and , therefore , did not result in impairment . see note 12 to the accompanying audited financial statements for information relating to our annual impairment analysis performed during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 . there were no impairment charges related to goodwill in any of the fiscal periods presented . share-based compensation we grant share-based awards to certain of our employees and directors . the grant date fair value of share options is calculated using the black-scholes option pricing model , which requires us to use subjective assumptions . the closing market price at the grant date is used to determine the grant date fair value of restricted shares , restricted share units , and performance restricted share units . these values are recognized as expense over the requisite service period , net of estimated forfeitures , based on expected attainment of pre-established performance goals for performance grants , or the passage of time for those grants which have only time-based vesting requirements . beginning in fiscal 2018 , we began using our own historical experience in determining the expected holding period and volatility of our time-based share option awards . in prior periods , we used the simplified method for determining the expected life of our options and average volatility rates of similar actively traded companies over the estimated holding period , due to insufficient historical option exercise experience as a public company . determining the grant date fair value of share-based awards requires considerable judgment , including estimating expected volatility , expected term , risk-free rate , and forfeitures . if factors change and we employ different assumptions , the fair value of future awards and resulting share-based compensation expense may differ significantly from what we have estimated in the past . 34 derivative financial instruments we use forward currency exchange contracts to manage our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency for certain of our transactions . we are exposed to risks on certain purchase commitments to foreign suppliers based on the value of our purchasing subsidiaries ' local currency relative to the currency requirement of the supplier on the date of the commitment . as such , we enter into forward currency contracts that generally mature in 12 months or less , which is consistent with the related purchase commitments . we designate certain contracts related to the purchase of inventory that qualify for hedge accounting as cash flow hedges . all of our derivative instruments are recorded in our consolidated balance sheets at fair value on a gross basis , regardless of their hedge designation . the effective portion of changes in the fair value for contracts designated as cash flow hedges is recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income ( loss ) until the hedged item effects earnings . when the inventory related to forecasted inventory purchases that are being hedged is sold to a third party , the gains or losses deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income ( loss ) are recognized within cost of goods sold . we use regression analysis to assess effectiveness of derivative instruments that are designated as hedges , which compares the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument to the change in the related hedged item . effectiveness is assessed on a quarterly basis and any portion of the designated hedge contracts deemed ineffective is recorded to foreign currency gain ( loss ) . if the hedge is no longer expected to be highly effective in the future , future changes in the fair value are recognized in earnings . for those contracts that are not designated as hedges , changes in the fair value are recorded in foreign currency gain ( loss ) in our consolidated statements of operations . the company is exposed to the risk that counterparties to derivative contracts will fail to meet their contractual obligations . in order to mitigate counterparty credit risk , the company only enters into contracts with carefully selected financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and certain other financial factors , adhering to established limits for credit exposure . income taxes deferred income tax assets and liabilities reflect temporary differences between the tax basis and financial reporting basis of our assets and liabilities and are determined using the tax rates and laws in effect for the periods in which the differences are expected to reverse . we periodically assess the realizability of deferred tax assets and the adequacy of deferred tax liabilities , based on the results of local , state , federal or foreign statutory tax audits or our own estimates and judgments . realization of deferred tax assets associated with net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income prior to their expiration in the applicable tax jurisdiction . we periodically review the recoverability of our deferred tax assets and provide valuation allowances as deemed necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that more-likely-than-not will be realized . this determination involves considerable judgment and our management considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of deferred tax assets , including recent earnings results within various taxing jurisdictions , expectations of future taxable income , the carryforward periods remaining and other factors . changes in the required valuation allowance are recorded in income in the period such determination is made . deferred tax assets could be reduced in the future if our estimates of taxable

results our operating subsidiaries are incorporated , and our operations and assets are primarily located , in china . accordingly , our results of operations , financial condition and prospects are affected by china 's economic and regulation conditions in the following factors : ( a ) an economic downturn in china or any regional market in china ; ( b ) economic policies and initiatives undertaken by the chinese government ; ( c ) changes in the chinese or regional business or regulatory environment affecting our customers ; and ( e ) changes in the chinese government policy on industrial solid waste . unfavorable changes could affect demand for services that we provide and could materially and adversely affect the results of operations . although the company has generally benefited from china 's economic growth and the policies to encourage the improvement of reducing of solid waste discharge , the company is also affected by the complexity , uncertainties and changes in the chinese economic conditions and regulations governing the mining industry . our fuel materials , mainly coal , operations are largely affected by the following aspects . first , the prc 's macroeconomic growth is not as fast as expected ; the slowdown of economic growth will affect the demand of the market , and the reduction of coal consumption by enterprises will affect the sales of coal and directly affect our earnings . second , the coal market price fluctuation will also affect our sales revenue ; because jiangsu rong hai has long-term and stable customers , the price fluctuations will affect the cost of purchasing coal and thus affect our revenue . third , the risk of price fluctuation in the shipping industry . the fluctuation of shipping price will also directly affect the fluctuation of coal market price , thus affecting our income . fourth , we have long-term and stable customers and continues to rely on a small number of customers from 2009 to 2019. losing our major customers will have a significant impact on our results of operations . in addition , the payment situation of these customers will be affected by abnormal market changes , which will have a negative impact on our business recovery accounts and cash flow . as a result of the novel coronavirus ( covid-19 ) outbreak , we have seen a slowdown in revenue growth in first quarter 2020 as our businesses have been negatively impacted by the covid-19 . these impacts of covid-19 on our business , financial condition , and results of operations include , but are not limited to , the following : โ— we temporally closed our offices and production facilities to adhere to the policy beginning in february 2020 , as required by relevant prc regulatory authorities . our offices are slowly reopening pursuant to local guidelines . โ— our customers could potentially be negatively impacted by the outbreak , which may reduce the demand of our products . as a result , our revenue and income may be negatively impacted in 2020 . โ— the situation may worsen if the covid-19 outbreak continues . we will continue to closely monitor our collections throughout 2020. because of the significant uncertainties surrounding the covid-19 outbreak , the extent of the continued business disruption and the related financial impact can not be reasonably estimated at this time . 45 results of

. we are tailoring our approach to address this evolution of the beauty industry . revenues from e-commerce channels comprise a small but fast-growing portion of our consolidated net revenues . transforming our digital and e-commerce capabilities is a central part of our overall strategy . while we are still in the early days of our digital transformation , we are making significant multi-year investments in talent acquisition , in-house content creation capabilities and product management systems that will fuel our e-commerce efforts . this , together with the dedication across each of our divisions to drive momentum in this rapidly expanding channel , will allow for expansion of our e-commerce footprint . the economics of developing , producing , launching , supporting and discontinuing products impact the timing of our sales and operating performance each period . in addition , as product life cycles shorten , results are driven primarily by successfully developing , introducing and marketing new , innovative products . we are continuing to improve our innovation process , aiming to introduce bigger , more impactful innovations while reducing time-to-market . we also support new and established products through our focus on strategic advertising and merchandising , brand repositioning , innovation and in-store execution . certain market segments and geographies in which we compete generally continue to grow moderately . while luxury fragrances and skin care categories are experiencing strong growth , low single digit declines in the retail nail , retail hair , mass body care , mass color cosmetics and mass fragrances categories in the u.s. and certain key countries in western europe continue to impact our business and financial results . we experienced strong growth in our luxury segment supported by strong category trends and our successful brand innovation , steady growth in our professional beauty segment and uneven performance in our consumer beauty segment . emerging markets have been a source of growth in many of our categories in fiscal 2018. we are also continuing to expand our presence in faster-growth emerging markets , by building strong relationships with key retailers in those markets and leveraging our broad portfolio of brands . transformation of our business following our acquisition of the p & g beauty business , we have been focused on integrating , restructuring and optimizing the combined organization . in fiscal 2018 , we successfully exited the third and final stage of our transition services agreement with p & g , following the successful exit of the first two stages in fiscal 2017. we also instituted new initiatives to deliver meaningful , sustainable expense and cost management to address increases in our fixed cost base as a combined company . the last step of the integration includes the completion of the one order , one invoice , one shipment program which will make coty a fully integrated company , able to sell , ship and invoice all of our brands in a seamless way for our customers , allowing significant simplification for our employees and increasing our scalability potential . further , in connection with the acquisition of the p & g beauty business , we are implementing our plan through which we continue to target realizing approximately $ 750 million of synergies driven by cost , procurement , supply chain and selling , general , and administrative savings through fiscal 2020. we realized cumulative synergies of approximately 20 % in fiscal 2017 , 50 % though fiscal 2018 , and we expect to cumulatively generate approximately 80 % of the net synergies throughout fiscal 2019 and the full $ 750 million through fiscal 2020. a milestone in our transformation was the completion in fiscal 2018 of our announced portfolio rationalization program and , as a result , we divested or terminated 14 brands including : clc , celine dion , cutex , esprit , guess , halle berry , jlo , lady gaga , love2love , playboy , summer and tim mcgraw , which were reported in our consumer beauty segment and cerruti and chopard , which were reported in our luxury segment . in addition , we continuously evaluate strategic transactions including acquisitions , divestitures and new brand licenses to optimize our portfolio . during fiscal 2018 , we acquired the exclusive long-term global license rights and other related assets for the burberry beauty luxury fragrances , cosmetics and skincare business ( the โ€œ burberry beauty business โ€ ) , which is managed within the luxury division . we will continue to opportunistically look at strategic opportunities as and when they arise , subject to our strict financial discipline and deleveraging objectives . performance 29 in fiscal 2018 , solid operating performance was driven by steady progress on business integration . modest revenue growth was driven by strong performance in luxury , due to impactful innovations across the major brands , and solid growth in professional beauty supported by growth in both hair and nail categories , offset by declines in consumer beauty revenues as we made gradual progress towards stabilizing performance . in the fourth fiscal quarter , strong performance from luxury and solid growth in professional beauty were offset by declines in consumer beauty , where a number of temporary supply chain disruptions impacted revenues . story_separator_special_tag the increase in net revenues in fiscal 2017 reflects an increase in unit volume of 75 % and a positive price and mix impact of 4 % , partially offset by a negative foreign currency exchange translations impact of 3 % . excluding the impacts of the acquisitions and divestitures , total net revenues in fiscal 2017 decreased 8 % reflecting a negative price and mix impact of 4 % , a decrease in unit volume of 3 % and a negative foreign currency exchange translations impact of 1 % . 33 net

impact of the acquisitions . the incremental net revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 from the acquisition of the p & g beauty business in the prior year comprised 12 % of the total percentage change in net revenues for the segment , and the acquisition of the burberry beauty business comprised 3 % of the total percentage change in net revenues for the segment in fiscal 2018 as compared to fiscal 2017. excluding the impacts of the acquisitions and divestitures , net revenues from the luxury segment increased 10 % , or $ 267.6 , to $ 2,828.6 in fiscal 2018 from $ 2,561.0 in fiscal 2017 , reflecting a positive price and mix impact of 5 % , a positive foreign currency exchange translations impact of 4 % , and an increase in unit volume of 1 % . this increase in net revenues primarily reflects : ( i ) the successful launches of tiffany & co . and gucci bloom and ( ii ) higher net revenues from calvin klein due to the launch of obsessed by calvin klein and from ck one due to the launch of a successful campaign in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. fiscal 2018 revenues were positively impacted by innovative products across our philosophy , marc jacobs and chloe brands . there

channels . in fiscal 2017 , net revenues from the luxury segment increased 40 % or $ 730.0 to $ 2,566.6 from $ 1,836.6 in fiscal 2016 , primarily due to the impact of the acquisitions . the

from $ 1,836.6 in fiscal 2016 , reflecting a negative price and mix impact of 3 % , a decrease in unit volume of 2 % , and a negative foreign currency exchange translations impact of 1 % . this decrease primarily reflects lower net revenues from calvin klein and marc jacobs fragrances . net revenues from calvin klein declined due to : ( i ) our strategic efforts to rationalize wholesale distribution by reducing the amount of product diversion to the value and mass channels resulting in a lower volume and ( ii ) a higher level of discounting and promotional activities resulting in a negative price and mix . the decline in marc jacobs primarily reflects declines in volumes from existing product lines and a lower level of launch activity in fiscal 2017 as compared to fiscal 2016. consumer beauty in fiscal 2018 , net revenues from the consumer beauty segment increased 16 % , or $ 579.9 , to $ 4,268.1 from $ 3,688.2 in fiscal 2017 , due to the impact of the acquisitions . the

and the divestitures , net revenues from the consumer beauty segment decreased 1 % , or $ 21.2 , to $ 3,622.3 in fiscal 2018 from $ 3,643.5 in fiscal 2017 , primarily reflecting a decrease in unit volume of 7 % , a positive foreign currency exchange translations impact of 3 % , and a positive price and mix impact of 3 % . the change in net revenues primarily reflects : ( i ) a decline in net revenues from covergirl due to declines in existing product lines along with increased markdowns and trade spending . despite declines in the brand in fiscal 2018 , we have launched a multi-year brand turnaround strategy for covergirl in north america in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 . ( ii ) lower net revenues from sally hansen and playboy due to less innovation in the first half of fiscal 2018 and declines in existing product lines . ( iii ) lower net revenues from risque due to a reduction in volume in brazil in response to decreased sales discounts in the second half of fiscal 2018 and trade inventory correction . however , we continue to experience market share growth .

portfolio rationalization program and , as a result , we divested or terminated 14 brands including : clc , celine dion , cutex , esprit , guess , halle berry , jlo , lady gaga , love2love , playboy , summer and tim mcgraw , which were reported in our consumer beauty segment and cerruti and chopard , which were reported in our luxury segment . in addition , we continuously evaluate strategic transactions including acquisitions , divestitures and new brand licenses to optimize our portfolio . during fiscal 2018 , we acquired the exclusive long-term global license rights and other related assets for the burberry beauty luxury fragrances , cosmetics and skincare business ( the โ€œ burberry beauty business โ€ ) , which is managed within the luxury division . we will continue to opportunistically look at strategic opportunities as and when they arise , subject to our strict financial discipline and deleveraging objectives . performance 29 in fiscal 2018 , solid operating performance was driven by steady progress on business integration . modest revenue growth was driven by strong performance in luxury , due to impactful innovations across the major brands , and solid growth in professional beauty supported by growth in both hair and nail categories , offset by declines in consumer beauty revenues as we made gradual progress towards stabilizing performance . in the fourth fiscal quarter , strong performance from luxury and solid growth in professional beauty were offset by declines in consumer beauty , where a number of temporary supply chain disruptions impacted revenues . story_separator_special_tag the increase in net revenues in fiscal 2017 reflects an increase in unit volume of 75 % and a positive price and mix impact of 4 % , partially offset by a negative foreign currency exchange translations impact of 3 % . excluding the impacts of the acquisitions and divestitures , total net revenues in fiscal 2017 decreased 8 % reflecting a negative price and mix impact of 4 % , a decrease in unit volume of 3 % and a negative foreign currency exchange translations impact of 1 % . 33 net revenues by segment replace_table_token_4_th luxury in fiscal 2018 , net revenues from the luxury segment increased 25 % , or $ 643.9 to $ 3,210.5 from $ 2,566.6 in fiscal 2017 , primarily due to the impact of the acquisitions . the incremental net revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 from the acquisition of the p & g beauty business in the prior year comprised 12 % of the total percentage change in net revenues for the segment , and the acquisition of the burberry beauty business comprised 3 % of the total percentage change in net revenues for the segment in fiscal 2018 as compared to fiscal 2017. excluding the impacts of the acquisitions and divestitures , net revenues from the luxury segment increased 10 % , or $ 267.6 , to $ 2,828.6 in fiscal 2018 from $ 2,561.0 in fiscal 2017 , reflecting a positive price and mix impact of 5 % , a positive foreign currency exchange translations impact of 4 % , and an increase in unit volume of 1 % . this increase in net revenues primarily reflects : ( i ) the successful launches of tiffany & co . and gucci bloom and ( ii ) higher net revenues from calvin klein due to the launch of obsessed by calvin klein and from ck one due to the launch of a successful campaign in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. fiscal 2018 revenues were positively impacted by innovative products across our philosophy , marc jacobs and chloe brands . there was also solid growth in fiscal 2018 , compared to fiscal 2017 , of luxury brands sold in china and the middle east as well as an increased contribution of luxury brands sold through e-commerce channels . in fiscal 2017 , net revenues from the luxury segment increased 40 % or $ 730.0 to $ 2,566.6 from $ 1,836.6 in fiscal 2016 , primarily due to the impact of the acquisitions . the acquisition of the p & g beauty business comprised

price and mix impact of 3 % , a decrease in unit volume of 2 % , and a negative foreign currency exchange translations impact of 1 % . this decrease primarily reflects lower net revenues from calvin klein and marc jacobs fragrances . net revenues from calvin klein declined due to : ( i ) our strategic efforts to rationalize wholesale distribution by reducing the amount of product diversion to the value and mass channels resulting in a lower volume and ( ii ) a higher level of discounting and promotional activities resulting in a negative price and mix . the decline in marc jacobs primarily reflects declines in volumes from existing product lines and a lower level of launch activity in fiscal 2017 as compared to fiscal 2016. consumer beauty in fiscal 2018 , net revenues from the consumer beauty segment increased 16 % , or $ 579.9 , to $ 4,268.1 from $ 3,688.2 in fiscal 2017 , due to the impact of the acquisitions . the incremental net revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 from the acquisition of the p & g beauty business in the prior year comprised 11 % of the total percentage change in net revenues for the segment , and the acquisition of younique comprised 6 % of the

segment decreased 1 % , or $ 21.2 , to $ 3,622.3 in fiscal 2018 from $ 3,643.5 in fiscal 2017 , primarily reflecting a decrease in unit volume of 7 % , a positive foreign currency exchange translations impact of 3 % , and a positive price and mix impact of 3 % . the change in net revenues primarily reflects : ( i ) a decline in net revenues from covergirl due to declines in existing product lines along with increased markdowns and trade spending . despite declines in the brand in fiscal 2018 , we have launched a multi-year brand turnaround strategy for covergirl in north america in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 . ( ii ) lower net revenues from sally hansen and playboy due to less innovation in the first half of fiscal 2018 and declines in existing product lines . ( iii ) lower net revenues from risque due to a reduction in volume in brazil in response to decreased sales discounts in the second half of fiscal 2018 and trade inventory correction . however , we continue to experience market share growth . ( iv ) lower net revenues from astor due to shelf-space losses in germany . 34 these decreases were partially offset by : ( i ) higher net revenues from nautica primarily driven by increased volume through value distribution channels .

during 2018 , several segments of the recreational boating industry improved due to a stable consumer confidence and financing environment for dealers and consumers , although aggregate sales of the boating segments in which marine products operates were approximately equal to sales during 2017. overall industry retail sales of outboard recreational boats in 2018 were equal to sales in 2017 , and sterndrive unit sales continued to decline . our net sales improved in 2018 compared to 2017 due to a favorable model mix which yielded higher average selling prices . unit sales in 2018 increased by less than one percent compared to 2017. management will continue to monitor retail demand among the various segments in the recreational boat market , the actions of our competitors , dealer inventory levels and the availability of dealer and consumer financing for the purchase of our products and adjust our production levels as deemed appropriate . we periodically monitor our market share in the 19 to 34 foot sterndrive category as one indicator of the success of our strategies and the market 's acceptance of our products . for the 12 month period ended september 30 , 2018 ( latest data available to us ) , chaparral 's market share in the 19 to 34 foot sterndrive category was 16.1 percent compared to 16.8 percent during the same period in 2017 ; the highest market share in this category during both periods . for the 12 month period ended september 30 , 2018 , robalo 's share of the 16 to 31 foot outboard sport fishing boat market was 6.2 percent , the second highest market share within this category . marine products corporation 's share of the outboard recreational market , including both robalo and chaparral 's outboard units , was 7.1 percent of the total market within its size range for the 12 months ended september 30 , 2018. the company held the third highest share among manufacturers of various outboard brands during the period . we will continue to monitor our market share and believe it to be important , but we believe that maximizing profitability takes precedence over growing our market share . furthermore , as we continue to expand the breadth of our product offerings within our core category and new categories , we consider our overall market share across the various powerboat categories to be of greater importance to the long-term health of our company than our market share within any specific type of recreational boat . 20 outlook we believe that recreational boating retail demand in many segments of the industry will remain stable during 2019. positive factors influencing recreational boat demand include strong consumer confidence and a robust u.s. employment market , as well as a favorable financing environment for boat dealers and consumers . these positive factors are offset by potential weakness in residential real estate markets , the negative impact of recent stock market fluctuations , and slightly higher interest rates . these weaknesses may have impacted attendance at the 2019 retail boat shows , which has been slightly lower in 2019 than in 2018. although industry wide retail boat sales remain lower than they were prior to the 2008 financial crisis , retail boat sales have increased each year since 2012. fluctuations in fuel prices can impact our industry , although they were relatively stable in 2018 and we do not believe that they have recently impacted sales . in general , the overall cost of boat ownership has increased , especially in the sterndrive recreational boat market segment , which comprises approximately 38 percent of the company 's unit sales . the higher cost of boat ownership discourages consumers from purchasing recreational boats . for a number of years , marine products as well as other boat manufacturers have been improving their customer service capabilities , marketing strategies and sales promotions in order to attract more consumers to recreational boating as well as improve consumers ' boating experiences . the company provides financial incentives to its dealers for receiving favorable customer satisfaction surveys . in addition , the recreational boating industry conducts a promotional program which involves advertising and consumer targeting efforts , as well as other activities designed to increase the potential consumer market for pleasure boats . many manufacturers , including marine products , participate in this program . management believes that these efforts have incrementally benefited the industry and marine products . as in past years , marine products enhanced its selection of models for the 2019 model year which began on july 1 , 2018. we continue to emphasize the surf series line of chaparral models , our larger chaparral ssx models , and our larger robalo models . we believe that these boat models will expand our customer base , and leverage our strong dealer network and reputation for quality and styling . during 2018 we expanded our nationally advertised fixed retail pricing to include more of our models . we plan to continue to develop and produce additional new products for subsequent model years . marine products expects to benefit from the tax cuts and jobs act ( โ€œ tax reform โ€ ) enacted during the fourth quarter of 2017. marine products estimates that its annual effective tax rate for 2019 will be in the low 20 percent range . since marine products believes that it will generate continued positive financial results , the company believes that it will benefit from this lower tax rate through increased earnings in 2019. our financial results for 2019 will depend on a number of factors , including interest rates , consumer confidence , the availability of credit to our dealers and consumers , fuel costs , the continued acceptance of our new products in the recreational boating market , our ability to compete in the competitive pleasure boating industry , the availability of labor and certain costs of our raw materials and key components . story_separator_special_tag while we focus on high quality manufacturing programs and processes , including actively monitoring the quality of our component suppliers and managing the dealer and customer service warranty experience and reimbursements , our estimated warranty obligation is based upon the warranty terms and the company 's enforcement of those terms over time , manufacturing defects or issues , repair costs , and the volume and mix of boat sales . the estimate of warranty costs is regularly analyzed and is adjusted based on several factors including the actual claims that occur . warranty expense as a percentage of net sales was 1.4 percent in 2018 , 1.3 percent in 2017 , and 1.7 percent in 2016. a 0.10 percentage point increase in the estimated warranty expense as a percentage of net sales during 2018 would have increased selling , general and administrative expenses and reduced operating income by approximately $ 0.3 million . income taxes - the effective income tax rate was 20.1 percent in 2018 , 35.6 percent in 2017 , and 28.5 percent in 2016. the effective tax rates vary due to changes in estimates of future taxable income , fluctuations in the tax jurisdictions in which the earnings and deductions are realized , variations in the relationship of tax-exempt income or losses to income before taxes and favorable or unfavorable adjustments to estimated tax liabilities related to proposed or probable assessments . as a result , the effective tax rate may fluctuate significantly on a quarterly or annual basis . the effective tax rate for 2018 reflects the change in federal income tax rates from 35 % to 21 % , as enacted by the tax cuts and jobs act ( tcja ) , as well as other beneficial adjustments . the company establishes a valuation allowance against the carrying value of deferred tax assets when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized through future taxable income . such amounts are charged to earnings in the period the determination is made . likewise , if it is later determined that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets would be realized , the applicable portion of the previously provided valuation allowance is reversed . the company considers future market growth , forecasted earnings , future taxable income , the mix of earnings in the jurisdictions in which the company operates , and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in determining the need for a valuation allowance . the company calculates the current and deferred tax provision based on estimates and assumptions that could differ from the actual results reflected in income tax returns filed during the subsequent year . adjustments based on filed tax returns are recorded when identified , which is generally in the third quarter of the subsequent year for u.s. federal and state provisions . deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the differences between the financial and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the year the differences are expected to reverse . in 2017 , the company revalued its deferred tax assets and liabilities to reflect the change in federal income tax rates , as enacted by the tcja . 26 the amount of income taxes the company pays is subject to ongoing audits by federal and state tax authorities , which often result in proposed assessments . our estimate for the potential outcome for any uncertain tax issue is highly judgmental . the company believes it has adequately provided for any reasonably foreseeable outcome related to these matters . however , future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are made or resolved or when statutes of limitation on potential assessments expire . additionally , the jurisdictions in which earnings or deductions are realized may differ from current estimates . impact of recent accounting pronouncements : during the year ended december 31 , 2018 , the financial accounting standards board ( fasb ) issued the following accounting standards updates ( asus ) : recently adopted accounting pronouncements : ยท accounting standards update ( asu ) no . 2014-09 , revenue from contacts with

using the modified retrospective method , with no cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption . the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under

the historical cash flows for the twelve months ended december 31 : replace_table_token_4_th 2018 cash provided by operating activities decreased by $ 6.9 million in 2018 compared to 2017. this decrease was primarily due to a net unfavorable change in working capital partially offset by an increase in net income . the major components of the net unfavorable change in working capital were as follows : an unfavorable change in other accrued expenses of $ 2.3 million due primarily to a decrease in accrued sales discounts ; an unfavorable change of $ 13.2 million in inventories primarily due to the timing of inventory purchases of key components and the timing of finished boats shipments ; and a $ 1.1 million favorable change in accounts receivable due to the timing of payments . cash provided by investing activities was $ 3.1 million in 2018 compared to $ 6.5 million used for investing activities in 2017. the increase in cash provided by investing activities in 2018 is primarily due to net sales of marketable securities coupled with a decrease in capital expenditures . cash used for financing activities increased $ 6.7 million in 2018 primarily due to an increase in cash paid for open market share repurchases , coupled with an increase in regular and special cash dividends paid during 2018 . ``` Suspicious Activity Report : during 2018 , several segments of the recreational boating industry improved due to a stable consumer confidence and financing environment for dealers and consumers , although aggregate sales of the boating segments in which marine products operates were approximately equal to sales during 2017. overall industry retail sales of outboard recreational boats in 2018 were equal to sales in 2017 , and sterndrive unit sales continued to decline . our net sales improved in 2018 compared to 2017 due to a favorable model mix which yielded higher average selling prices . unit sales in 2018 increased by less than one percent compared to 2017. management will continue to monitor retail demand among the various segments in the recreational boat market , the actions of our competitors , dealer inventory levels and the availability of dealer and consumer financing for the purchase of our products and adjust our production levels as deemed appropriate . we periodically monitor our market share in the 19 to 34 foot sterndrive category as one indicator of the success of our strategies and the market 's acceptance of our products . for the 12 month period ended september 30 , 2018 ( latest data available to us ) , chaparral 's market share in the 19 to 34 foot sterndrive category was 16.1 percent compared to 16.8 percent during the same period in 2017 ; the highest market share in this category during both periods . for the 12 month period ended september 30 , 2018 , robalo 's share of the 16 to 31 foot outboard sport fishing boat market was 6.2 percent , the second highest market share within this category . marine products corporation 's share of the outboard recreational market , including both robalo and chaparral 's outboard units , was 7.1 percent of the total market within its size range for the 12 months

loans are considered impaired when , based on current information and events , it is probable that the bank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the loan agreement . the collection of all amounts due according to contractual terms means that both the contractual interest and principal payments of a loan will be collected as scheduled in the loan agreement . impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan 's effective interest rate , or , as a practical expedient , at the loan 's observable market price , or the fair value of the underlying collateral . the fair value of collateral , reduced by costs to sell on a discounted basis , is used if a loan is collateral-dependent . investment securities impairment periodically , we may need to assess whether there have been any events or economic circumstances to indicate that a security on which there is an unrealized loss is impaired on an other-than-temporary basis . in any such instance , we would consider many factors , including the severity and duration of the impairment , our intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient for a recovery in value , recent events specific to the issuer or industry , and for debt securities , external credit ratings and recent downgrades . securities on which there is an unrealized loss that is deemed to be other-than-temporary are written down to fair value , with the write-down recorded as a realized loss in securities gains ( losses ) . other real

all amounts due according to the original terms of the loan agreement . the collection of all amounts due according to contractual terms means that both the contractual interest and principal payments of a loan will be collected as scheduled in the loan agreement . impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan 's effective interest rate , or , as a practical expedient , at the loan 's observable market price , or the fair value of the underlying collateral . the fair value of collateral , reduced by costs to sell on a discounted basis , is used if a loan is collateral-dependent . investment securities impairment periodically , we may need to assess whether there have been any events or economic circumstances to indicate that a security on which there is an unrealized loss is impaired on an other-than-temporary basis . in any such instance , we would consider many factors , including the severity and duration of the impairment , our intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient for a recovery in value , recent events specific to the issuer or industry , and for debt securities , external credit ratings and recent downgrades . securities on which there is an unrealized loss that is deemed to be other-than-temporary are written down to fair value , with the write-down recorded as a realized loss in securities gains ( losses ) . other real estate owned other real estate owned ( โ€œ oreo โ€ ) , consisting of assets that have been acquired through foreclosure , is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated fair value less the estimated cost of disposition . fair value is based on independent appraisals and other relevant factors . other real estate owned is revalued on an annual basis or more often if market conditions necessitate . valuation adjustments required at foreclosure are charged to the alll . subsequent to foreclosure , losses on the periodic revaluation of the property are charged to net income as oreo expense . significant judgments and complex estimates are required in estimating the fair value of other real estate , and the period of time within which such estimates can be considered current is significantly shortened during periods of market volatility , as experienced in recent years . as a result , the net proceeds realized from sales transactions could differ significantly from appraisals , comparable sales , and other estimates used to determine the fair value of other real estate . goodwill and other identifiable intangible

retirement obligation . 9. joint venture arrangements new jersey mill venture agreement ( โ€œ njmjv โ€ ) in january 2011 , the company and united story_separator_special_tag plan of operation new jersey mining company is a gold producer focused on diversifying and building its asset base and cash flows through a portfolio of mineral properties located in historic producing gold districts in idaho and montana . the company 's plan of operation is to generate positive cash flow , increase its gold production and asset base over time while being mindful of corporate overhead . the companies management is focused on utilizing its in-house technical and operating skills to build a portfolio of producing mines and milling operations with a primary focus on gold and secondary focus on silver and base metals . the company 's properties include : the golden chest mine ( currently in production ) , the new jersey mill ( majority ownership interest ) , and a 50 % carried to production interest in the past producing butte highlands mine located in montana . in addition to its producing and near-term production projects , new jersey mining company has additional gold exploration prospects , including the mckinley-monarch and eastern star located in central idaho , and additional holdings near the golden chest in the murray gold belt . recently , the company added two rare earth element properties in idaho to its portfolio of exploration properties in an effort to diversify its holdings towards the anticipated demand for these elements in the electrification of motorized vehicles . highlights for 2020 include : ยท for the year ending december 31 , 2020 39,880 dry metric tonnes ( dmt ) were processed at the company 's new jersey mill with an average gold head grade of 3.03 grams per tonne gold ( gpt ) . ยท njmc produced a total of 3,755 ounces of gold contained in concentrates . ยท mined 27,690 tonnes of ore from the open pit at an average grade of 1.73 gpt gold with an average stripping ratio of 9.1 and an average daily mining rate of 1,480 tonnes per day ( tpd ) . tonnes and grade were lower than expected because of unmapped historic stopes where the old-timers mined portions of the veins . ยท mined 12,190 tonnes of ore from the underground mine at an average grade of 5.98 gpt gold , placed 1,828 cubic meters of cemented rockfill ( crf ) and completed 75 meters of main access ramp ( mar ) to access new stopes . ยท added additional mining equipment and a second crew of miners in the third quarter of 2020 to increase underground mine production and initiate underground development of the main access ramp . a wireless communication system was also installed underground to improve communication and safety . ยท added two rare earth element properties in central idaho to its portfolio , the diamond creek and roberts projects . ยท acquired the alder gulch project which contains 368 acres of patented , prospective land just west of the golden chest . results of operations our financial performance for the years ended december 31 , 2020 and 2019 is summarized below : ยท revenue from gold concentrate sales was $ 5,674,947 for the year ending december 31 , 2020 compared to $ 6,119,512 for the comparable period in 2019. the decrease in revenue from mining operations is the result of fewer tonnes processed at the mill due to less tonnes and lower grade mineralized material being mined in the open pit in 2020 compared to 2019 . ยท gross profit in 2020 was $ 67,546 compared to a gross profit of $ 738,548 in 2019 also because of fewer tonnes and lower grade mineralized material being mined in the open pit in 2020 compared to 2019 . ยท the company had a net loss of $ 739,939 in 2020 compared to a net loss of $ 726,507 for the

aceto sells generic prescription products and over-the-counter pharmaceutical products to leading wholesalers , chain drug stores , distributors and mass merchandisers . on december 21 , 2016 , wholly owned subsidiaries of rising pharmaceuticals , inc. ( โ€œ rising โ€ ) , a wholly owned subsidiary of aceto , completed the acquisition of certain generic products and related assets of entities formerly known as citron pharma llc ( โ€œ citron โ€ ) and its affiliate lucid pharma llc ( โ€œ lucid โ€ ) . citron was a privately-held new jersey-based pharmaceutical company focused on developing and marketing generic pharmaceutical products in partnership with leading generic pharmaceutical manufacturers based in india and the united states . lucid was a privately-held new jersey-based generic pharmaceutical distributor specializing in providing cost-effective products to various agencies of the u.s. federal government including the veterans administration and the defense logistics agency . lucid serviced 18 national contracts with the federal government . rising formed two subsidiaries to consummate the product acquisition โ€“ rising health , llc ( which acquired certain products and related assets of citron ) and acetris health , llc ( which acquired certain products and related assets of lucid ) . the assets acquired in the product purchase transaction expanded , complemented , and strengthened our existing and future product offerings . in what has become a competitive generic drug business environment , one key for long-term success is having an ever-growing commercial portfolio of generic products , a strong internal drug development pipeline and capable , reliable manufacturing partners . we believe that this transaction added significantly to the rising business platform in all three crucial areas . we also believe that , consistent with our strategy of expanding our portfolio of finished dosage form generic products through product development partnerships and acquisitions of late stage assets , abbreviated new drug applications ( โ€œ andas โ€ ) and complementary generic drug businesses , this product acquisition significantly expanded our roster of commercialized products and pipeline of products under development . based on a report issued by iqvia institute on april 19 , 2018 , โ€œ spending on medicines grew by 0.6 % in 2017 after off-invoice discounts and rebates . this spending includes all types of medicines , including institutional use for inpatients and outpatients . focusing only on retail and mail-order pharmacy distribution , net spending declined by 2.1 % . โ€ during the third quarter of fiscal 2018 , our rising pharmaceuticals reporting unit had a decline in actual and forecasted revenue and earnings due to the persistent adverse conditions in the generics market . in addition , in february 2018 , we were notified by the u.s. government that 11 generic drug products we acquired through our acetris health subsidiary are not in compliance with the federal trade agreement act country-of-origin provisions of a clause contained in the government supply contracts acquired from lucid . based on these indicators , we determined that it was necessary to perform an interim goodwill impairment analysis at march 31 , 2018 for our rising reporting unit . accordingly , we recognized pre-tax non-cash impairment charges of $ 256,266 consisting of $ 235,110 of a goodwill impairment charge and a $ 21,156 write-down of other identifiable intangible assets . aceto also supplies the raw materials used in the production of nutritional and packaged dietary supplements , including vitamins , amino acids , iron compounds and biochemicals used in pharmaceutical and nutritional preparations . the pharmaceutical ingredients segment has two product groups : active pharmaceutical ingredients ( apis ) and pharmaceutical intermediates . 34 we supply apis to many of the major generic drug companies , who we believe view aceto as a valued partner in their effort to develop and market generic drugs . the process of introducing a new api from pipeline to market spans a number of years and begins with aceto partnering with a generic pharmaceutical manufacturer and jointly selecting an api , several years before the expiration of a composition of matter patent , for future genericizing . we then identify the appropriate supplier , and concurrently utilizing our global technical network , work to ensure they meet standards of quality to comply with regulations . our client , the generic pharmaceutical company , will submit the anda for u.s. food and drug administration ( โ€œ fda โ€ ) approval or european-equivalent approval . the introduction of the api to market occurs after all the development testing has been completed and the anda or european-equivalent is approved and the patent expires or is deemed invalid . aceto , at all times , has a pipeline of apis at various stages of development both in the united states and europe . additionally , as the pressure to lower the overall cost of healthcare increases , aceto has focused on , and works very closely with our customers to develop new api opportunities to provide alternative , more economical , second-source options for existing generic drugs . by leveraging our worldwide sourcing , regulatory and quality assurance capabilities , we provide to generic drug manufacturers an alternative , economical source for existing api products . aceto has long been a supplier of pharmaceutical intermediates , the complex chemical compounds that are the building blocks used in producing apis . these are the critical components of all drugs , whether they are already on the market or currently undergoing clinical trials . faced with significant economic pressures as well as ever-increasing regulatory barriers , the innovative drug companies look to aceto as a source for high quality intermediates . aceto employs , on occasion , the same second source strategy for our pharmaceutical intermediates business that we use in our api business . historically , pharmaceutical manufacturers have had one source for the intermediates needed to produce their products . story_separator_special_tag the company elected to early adopt accounting standards update ( โ€œ asu โ€ ) 2017-04 , intangibles- goodwill and other ( topic 350 ) , during the third quarter of fiscal 2018 which eliminated the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill to measure a goodwill impairment charge . instead , the amount of an impairment charge is recognized if the carrying amount of a reporting unit is greater than its fair value . the fair value of the rising reporting unit was estimated using many assumptions and estimates and a market participant approach that directly impacts the results of the testing . in making these assumptions and estimates , the company used industry accepted valuation models and set criteria that were reviewed and approved by various levels of management . accordingly , with respect to the third quarter of fiscal 2018 , the company recognized a pre-tax non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $ 235,110 related to the rising reporting unit . long-lived assets long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable . if it is determined such indicators are present and the review indicates that the assets will not be fully recoverable , based on undiscounted estimated cash flows over the remaining amortization periods , their carrying values are reduced to estimated fair value . measurements based on undiscounted cash flows are level 3 inputs . as noted above , during the third quarter of fiscal 2018 , the company 's rising pharmaceuticals subsidiary had a decline in actual and forecasted revenue and earnings and therefore the company performed an impairment test on the related intangibles . the projected undiscounted cash flows for certain intangibles were determined to be less than the carrying value , and as a result , the company recognized an impairment charge of $ 5,745 in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. additionally , as noted above , the company was notified by the u.s. government that 11 generic drug products it acquired through its acetris health subsidiary in a product purchase agreement with an entity formerly known as lucid pharma llc were not in compliance with the federal trade agreement act country-of-origin provisions of a clause contained in the government supply contracts acquired from lucid . based on this , the company performed an impairment test on the related intangible asset and recognized an impairment charge of $ 15,411 on the customer relationships intangible asset in the third quarter of fiscal 2018 . 38 environmental and other contingencies we establish accrued liabilities for environmental matters and other contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can reasonably be estimated . if the contingency is resolved for an amount greater or less than the accrual , or our share of the contingency increases or decreases , or other assumptions relevant to the development of the estimate were to change , we would recognize an additional expense or benefit in income in the period that the determination was made . taxes we account for income taxes in accordance with gaap . gaap establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for the effects of income taxes that result from an enterprise 's activities during the current and preceding years . it requires an asset-and-liability approach to financial accounting and reporting of income taxes . deferred tax assets are recorded for net operating losses and temporary differences between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities expected to produce tax deductions in future periods . the ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the tax periods in which those deferred tax assets would be deductible . a valuation allowance is taken when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized . when determining the amount of net deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized , we assess all available positive and negative evidence . this evidence includes , but is not limited to , scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities , prior earnings history , projected future earnings , carry-back and carry-forward periods and the feasibility of ongoing tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of the realization of a deferred tax asset . the weight given to the positive and negative evidence is commensurate with the extent the evidence may be objectively verified . as such , it is generally difficult for positive evidence regarding projected future taxable income ( exclusive of reversing taxable temporary differences and carryforwards ) to outweigh objective negative evidence such as our recent financial reporting loss for the year ended june 30 , 2018. therefore , we recorded a valuation allowance of $ 76,500 against our net u.s. deferred tax assets during the year ended june 30 , 2018. the timing of when , and the extent to which , a valuation allowance is recognized , is subjective . initially , due to the various factors that occurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 , including substantial penalties for delays in supplying products and incurring substantial expenses to address the issues that led to the impairment charges taken during the year , as well as retaining financial and legal advisors to assist us in dealing with the various challenges that the company is currently facing , including legal advisors retained in connection with various ongoing legal proceedings , we determined to record this valuation allowance during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. however , after weighing the information available to us at the time that our third quarter

( โ€œ rising โ€ ) , a wholly owned subsidiary of aceto , completed the acquisition of certain generic products and related assets of entities formerly known as citron pharma llc ( โ€œ citron โ€ ) and its affiliate lucid pharma llc ( โ€œ lucid โ€ ) . citron was a privately-held new jersey-based pharmaceutical company focused on developing and marketing generic pharmaceutical products in partnership with leading generic pharmaceutical manufacturers based in india and the united states . lucid was a privately-held new jersey-based generic pharmaceutical distributor specializing in providing cost-effective products to various agencies of the u.s. federal government including the veterans administration and the defense logistics agency . lucid serviced 18 national contracts with the federal government . rising formed two subsidiaries to consummate the product acquisition โ€“ rising health , llc ( which acquired certain products and related assets of citron ) and acetris health , llc ( which acquired certain products and related assets of lucid ) . the assets acquired in the product purchase transaction expanded , complemented , and strengthened our existing and future product offerings . in what has become a competitive generic drug business environment , one key for long-term success is having an ever-growing commercial portfolio of generic products , a strong internal drug development pipeline and capable , reliable manufacturing partners . we believe that this transaction added significantly to the rising business platform in all three crucial areas . we also believe that , consistent with our strategy of expanding our portfolio of finished dosage form generic products through product development partnerships and acquisitions of late stage assets , abbreviated new drug applications ( โ€œ andas โ€ ) and complementary generic drug businesses , this product acquisition significantly expanded our roster of commercialized products and pipeline of products under development . based on a report issued by iqvia institute on april 19 , 2018 , โ€œ spending on medicines grew by 0.6 % in 2017 after off-invoice discounts and rebates . this spending includes all types of medicines , including institutional use for inpatients and outpatients . focusing only on retail and mail-order pharmacy distribution , net spending declined by 2.1 % . โ€ during the third quarter of fiscal 2018 , our rising pharmaceuticals reporting unit had a decline in actual and forecasted revenue and earnings due to the persistent adverse conditions in the generics market . in addition , in february 2018 , we were notified by the u.s. government that 11 generic drug products we acquired through our acetris health subsidiary are not in compliance with the federal trade agreement act country-of-origin provisions of a clause contained in the government supply contracts acquired from lucid . based on these indicators , we determined that it was necessary to perform an interim goodwill impairment analysis at march 31 , 2018 for our rising reporting unit . accordingly , we recognized pre-tax non-cash impairment charges of $ 256,266 consisting of $ 235,110 of a goodwill impairment charge and a $ 21,156 write-down of other identifiable intangible assets . aceto also supplies the raw materials used in the production of nutritional and packaged dietary supplements , including vitamins , amino acids , iron compounds and biochemicals used in pharmaceutical and nutritional preparations . the pharmaceutical ingredients segment has two product groups : active pharmaceutical ingredients ( apis ) and pharmaceutical intermediates . 34 we supply apis to many of the major generic drug companies , who we believe view aceto as a valued partner in their effort to develop and market generic drugs . the process of introducing a new api from pipeline to market spans a number of years and begins with aceto partnering with a generic pharmaceutical manufacturer and jointly selecting an api , several years before the expiration of a composition of matter patent , for future genericizing . we then identify the appropriate supplier , and concurrently utilizing our global technical network , work to ensure they meet standards of quality to comply with regulations . our client , the generic pharmaceutical company , will submit the anda for u.s. food and drug administration ( โ€œ fda โ€ ) approval or european-equivalent approval . the introduction of the api to market occurs after all the development testing has been completed and the anda or european-equivalent is approved and the patent expires or is deemed invalid . aceto , at all times , has a pipeline of apis at various stages of development both in the united states and europe . additionally , as the pressure to lower the overall cost of healthcare increases , aceto has focused on , and works very closely with our customers to develop new api opportunities to provide alternative , more economical , second-source options for existing generic drugs . by leveraging our worldwide sourcing , regulatory and quality assurance capabilities , we provide to generic drug manufacturers an alternative , economical source for existing api products . aceto has long been a supplier of pharmaceutical intermediates , the complex chemical compounds that are the building blocks used in producing apis . these are the critical components of all drugs , whether they are already on the market or currently undergoing clinical trials . faced with significant economic pressures as well as ever-increasing regulatory barriers , the innovative drug companies look to aceto as a source for high quality intermediates . aceto employs , on occasion , the same second source strategy for our pharmaceutical intermediates business that we use in our api business . historically , pharmaceutical manufacturers have had one source for the intermediates needed to produce their products . story_separator_special_tag the company elected to early adopt accounting standards update ( โ€œ asu โ€ ) 2017-04 , intangibles- goodwill and other ( topic 350 ) , during the third quarter of fiscal 2018 which eliminated the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill to measure a goodwill impairment charge . instead , the amount of an impairment charge is recognized if the carrying amount of a reporting unit is greater than its fair value . the fair value of the rising reporting unit was estimated using many assumptions and estimates and a market participant approach that directly impacts the results of the testing . in making these assumptions and estimates , the company used industry accepted valuation models and set criteria that were reviewed and approved by various levels of management . accordingly , with respect to the third quarter of fiscal 2018 , the company recognized a pre-tax non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $ 235,110 related to the rising reporting unit . long-lived assets long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable . if it is determined such indicators are present and the review indicates that the assets will not be fully recoverable , based on undiscounted estimated cash flows over the remaining amortization periods , their carrying values are reduced to estimated fair value . measurements based on undiscounted cash flows are level 3 inputs . as noted above , during the third quarter of fiscal 2018 , the company 's rising pharmaceuticals subsidiary had a decline in actual and forecasted revenue and earnings and therefore the company performed an impairment test on the related intangibles . the projected undiscounted cash flows for certain intangibles were determined to be less than the carrying value , and as a result , the company recognized an impairment charge of $ 5,745 in the third quarter of fiscal 2018. additionally , as noted above , the company was notified by the u.s. government that 11 generic drug products it acquired through its acetris health subsidiary in a product purchase agreement with an entity formerly known as lucid pharma llc were not in compliance with the federal trade agreement act country-of-origin provisions of a clause contained in the government supply contracts acquired from lucid . based on this , the company performed an impairment test on the related intangible asset and recognized an impairment charge of $ 15,411 on the customer relationships intangible asset in the third quarter of fiscal 2018 . 38 environmental and other contingencies we establish accrued liabilities for environmental matters and other contingencies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can reasonably be estimated . if the contingency is resolved for an amount greater or less than the accrual , or our share of the contingency increases or decreases , or other assumptions relevant to the development of the estimate were to change , we would recognize an additional expense or benefit in income in the period that the determination was made . taxes we account for income taxes in accordance with gaap . gaap establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for the effects of income taxes that result from an enterprise 's activities during the current and preceding years . it requires an asset-and-liability approach to financial accounting and reporting of income taxes . deferred tax assets are recorded for net operating losses and temporary differences between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities expected to produce tax deductions in future periods . the ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the tax periods in which those deferred tax assets would be deductible . a valuation allowance is taken when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized . when determining the amount of net deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized , we assess all available positive and negative evidence . this evidence includes , but is not limited to , scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities , prior earnings history , projected future earnings , carry-back and carry-forward periods and the feasibility of ongoing tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of the realization of a deferred tax asset . the weight given to the positive and negative evidence is commensurate with the extent the evidence may be objectively verified . as such , it is generally difficult for positive evidence regarding projected future taxable income ( exclusive of reversing taxable temporary differences and carryforwards ) to outweigh objective negative evidence such as our recent financial reporting loss for the year ended june 30 , 2018. therefore , we recorded a valuation allowance of $ 76,500 against our net u.s. deferred tax assets during the year ended june 30 , 2018. the timing of when , and the extent to which , a valuation allowance is recognized , is subjective . initially , due to the various factors that occurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 , including substantial penalties for delays in supplying products and incurring substantial expenses to address the issues that led to the impairment charges taken during the year , as well as retaining financial and legal advisors to assist us in dealing with the various challenges that the company is currently facing , including legal advisors retained in connection with various ongoing legal proceedings , we determined to record this valuation allowance during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. however , after weighing the information available to us at the time that our third quarter financial statements were issued , we have determined , with the assistance of our advisors , that it is reasonable to conclude that it was more likely than not that a substantial portion of the valuation allowance should have been

during fiscal year 2016. we designed , developed and launched the lrad rxl for the u.s. navy and were awarded a $ 7.4 million contract using this unit for situational awareness systems on military sealift command ships and other vessels . this unit combines the benefits of the remotely operated pan and tilt system of the lrad 500rx , which is a lighter , compact cost-effective version of our lrad 1000rx , with the enhanced , more powerful driver technology included in our lrad 450xl system . we are beginning to utilize our advanced driver , which offers almost twice the output of our standard driver , in other products to increase product output in a smaller size unit . we have also developed a number of product modifications and customizations to meet specific customer needs . our lrad products have been competitively selected over other commercially available systems by the united states military and by several international militaries . we seek to continually improve the quality and manufacturability of our products to retain our competitive advantage in the ahd market from both a technology standpoint and to remain cost competitive . we believe our improved products provide increased sales opportunities into government and commercial markets and demonstrate our ability to remain the leader in the ahd market . we also continued to design and expand our product offering for our one voice omnidirectional product line through increased variations of our current technology to accommodate various customer requirements , including the addition of various configurations of amplifiers , mounts , power sources and software . story_separator_special_tag we also increased salaries and consulting costs by $ 358,616 , primarily for the addition of two full

by $ 3,661 due to a decrease of $ 16,895 for interest income due to lower cash balances , offset by $ 20,556 for amortization and accretion of our investments . net income the decrease in net income was due to the decrease in revenues and gross margin and an increase in operating expenses , primarily due to $ 1,138,183 of non-recurring expenses . in addition , we recorded $ 1,840 of tax provision in the current year and recorded a $ 188,000 non-cash income tax benefit for the release of a portion of our valuation allowance against deferred tax assets based on an assessment of the company 's historical and projected taxable income , along with any tax planning strategies and any other positive or negative evidence , and determined it was more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets will be realized . in the year ended september 30 , 2015 , we recorded a tax benefit of $ 7,700 and released $ 8,339,000 of our valuation allowance . for additional details , refer to note

future cash flows from operating activities in subsequent periods , we have no other unused sources of liquidity at this time . principal factors that could affect the availability of our internally generated funds include : ability to meet sales projections ; government spending levels ; introduction of competing technologies ; product mix and effect on margins ; ability to reduce and manage inventory levels ; and product acceptance in new markets . 22 principal factors that could affect our ability to obtain cash from external sources include : volatility in the capital markets ; and market price and trading volume of our common stock . our board of directors approved a share buyback program under which the company may utilize up to $ 4 million in cash to repurchase outstanding common shares using available cash and from future cash flow from operations through december 31 , 2016. based on our current cash position , our order backlog , and assuming the accuracy of our currently planned expenditures , we believe we have sufficient capital to fund planned levels of operations for at least the next twelve months . however , we operate in a rapidly evolving and often unpredictable business environment that may change the timing or amount of expected future cash receipts and expenditures . accordingly , there can be no assurance that we may not be required to raise additional funds through the sale of equity or debt securities or from credit facilities . additional capital , if needed , may not be available on satisfactory terms , if at all .

levels based on meeting three different targeted objectives for earnings per share . the number of shares outstanding used for the calculation is as of october 1 , 2015. in fiscal years 2016 and 2015 , the company did not meet the targeted objectives for earnings per share so an accrual was not recorded . in april 2009 , our board of directors adopted a change in control severance benefit plan . the change of control plan provides that in the event of a qualifying termination , the participating executive will be entitled to receive ( i ) a lump sum payment equal to twenty-four months ' base salary ( less applicable tax and other withholdings ) , ( ii ) a lump sum payment equal to the officer 's target bonus for the year in which the officer is terminated , ( iii ) continuation of health benefits for twenty-four months and ( iv ) accelerated vesting of any unvested stock options and other securities or similar incentives held at the time of termination . a qualifying termination under the change of control plan is any involuntary termination without cause or any voluntary termination for good reason , in each case occurring within three months before or twelve months after a change of control of lrad . we entered into an employment agreement in august 2016 with our chief executive officer that provides for severance benefits including twelve months ' salary and health benefits ,

randomized phase 3 study of sodium thiosulfate for the prevention of cisplatin-induced ototoxicity in children โ€ . we continue to focus our resources on the development of pedmark tm . we have licensed from ohsu intellectual property rights for the use of pedmark tm as a chemoprotectant and are developing pedmark tm as a protectant against the hearing loss often caused by platinum-based anti-cancer agents in children . preclinical and clinical studies conducted by ohsu and others have indicated that pedmark tm can effectively reduce the incidence of hearing loss caused by platinum-based anti-cancer agents . hearing loss among children receiving platinum-based chemotherapy is frequent , permanent and often severely disabling . the incidence of hearing loss in these children depends upon the dose and duration of chemotherapy , and many of these children require lifelong hearing aids . in addition , adults undergoing chemotherapy for several common malignancies , including ovarian cancer , testicular cancer , and particularly head and neck cancer and brain cancer , often receive intensive platinum-based therapy and may experience severe , irreversible hearing loss , particularly in the high frequencies . we estimate in the u.s. and europe that annually over 10,000 children with solid tumors are treated with platinum agents . the vast majority of these newly diagnosed tumors are localized and classified as low to intermediate risk in nature . these localized cancers may have overall survival rates of greater than 80 % , further emphasizing the importance of quality of life after treatment . the incidence of hearing loss in these children depends upon the dose and duration of chemotherapy , and many of these children require lifelong hearing aids . there is currently no established preventive agent for this hearing loss and only expensive , technically difficult and sub-optimal cochlear ( inner ear ) implants have been shown to provide some benefit . infants and young children at critical stages of development lack speech language development and literacy , and older children and adolescents lack speech language development and literacy , and older children and adolescents lack social-emotional development and educational achievement . in march 2018 , pedmark tm received breakthrough therapy and fast track designations from the fda . further , pedmark tm has received orphan drug designation in the u.s. in this setting . we initiated our rolling new drug application ( โ€œ nda โ€ ) for pedmark tm for the prevention of ototoxicity induced by cisplatin chemotherapy patients 1 month to < 18 years of age with localized , non-metastatic , solid tumors with the fda in december 2018. we announced that we had submitted full completion of the nda in february 2020. on april 13 , 2020 , we announced that the fda had accepted for filing and granted priority review for our nda . the fda set a prescription drug fee act ( โ€œ pdufa โ€ ) target action date of august 10 , 2020 for the completion of the fda 's review . on august 10 , 2020 , we announced that we received a crl from the fda regarding our nda for pedmark tm , which identified deficiencies in the third-party manufacturing facility that manufactures pedmark tm on our behalf . importantly , no clinical safety or efficacy issues were identified during the review and there is no requirement for further clinical data . in the fourth quarter of 2020 , we engaged in a type a meeting with the fda concerning the crl that we believe was constructive and collaborative . we are working closely with our third-party drug manufacturer and the fda to fully address the crl , and we plan to resubmit our nda for pedmark tm in the second quarter of 2021 . 47 in august 2018 , the pediatric committee ( โ€œ pdco โ€ ) of the european medicines agency ( โ€œ ema โ€ ) accepted our pediatric investigation plan ( pip ) for sodium thiosulfate with the trade name pedmarqsi for the condition of the prevention of platinum-induced hearing loss . an accepted pip is a prerequisite for filing a marketing authorization application ( โ€œ maa โ€ ) for any new medicinal product in europe . the indication targeted by our pip is for the prevention of platinum-induced ototoxic hearing loss for standard risk hepatoblastoma ( sr-hb ) . additional tumor types of the proposed indication will be subject to the committee for medicinal products for human use ( โ€œ chmp โ€ ) assessment at the time of the maa . no deferred clinical studies were required in the positive opinion given by pdco . we were also advised that sodium thiosulfate ( tradename to be determined ) is eligible for submission of an application for a pediatric use marketing authorization (

( 4 ) average daily and year-end europe brent crude spot price as reported by the u.s. energy information administration . ( 5 ) average daily and year-end henry hub natural gas spot price as reported by the u.s. energy information administration . 19 the prices for both wti and brent crude oil began to weaken after the opec meeting held in november 2014. average prices for the majority of the 2014 calendar year were in excess of $ 99 per barrel for wti and in excess of $ 105 per barrel for brent ; however , both were down to approximately $ 55 per barrel by the end of 2014 and less than $ 40 per barrel by the end of 2015. the volatility and significant reduction in the average price of crude oil during 2015 and 2016 resulted in a significant decrease in the activities associated with both the exploration and production of oil during 2015 and throughout most of 2016. however , crude oil prices , although still volatile , began to improve during the second half of 2016 and continued to strengthen during 2017 , especially during the second half of 2017. on average , pricing for crude oil improved over 16 % for 2017 over 2016 , which resulted in much improved levels of land-based activity associated with the exploration and production of oil in the united states . in north america , the land-based rig count decreased 62 % during 2015 and another 53 % during the first half of 2016 , which greatly impacted both services and product sales to this market over this time period . although the north america rig count improved at the end of 2016 it still remained almost 20 % below 2015 levels and continued to strengthen throughout most of 2017. we saw resilient levels of activities on development projects and producing fields in the u.s. unconventional reservoirs during the second half of 2016 which continued and expanded during 2017 as we began the recovery phase of this business cycle . outside of north america , activities associated with the exploration for and production of oil have also decreased from 2014 levels , although not as significantly as the land-based activities in north america . our clients ' activities in the international and deepwater markets declined during 2015 and 2016 and remained at these lower levels in 2017 ; however , we believe these markets have shown signs of recovery as our clients have announced several new major capital projects . results of operations operating results for the year ended december 31 , 2017 compared to the years ended december 31 , 2016 and 2015 we evaluate our operating results by analyzing revenue , operating income and net income margin ( defined as net income divided by total revenue ) . since we have a relatively fixed cost structure , increases in revenue generally translate into higher operating income results as well as net income margin percentages . results for the years ended december 31 , 2017 , 2016 and 2015 are summarized in the following chart : 20 results of operations as a percentage of applicable revenue are as follows ( dollars in thousands ) : replace_table_token_4_th services revenue services revenue increased to $ 481.5 million in 2017 from $ 470.3 million in 2016 ; however , services revenue for 2016 decreased from $ 612.0 million in 2015 . the upward trend in the average price of crude oil during 2017 resulted in continued strengthening of activities associated with the exploration and production of oil during the second half of 2017. however , the most significant increase was realized in onshore activities within the united states while the decrease in international activities continued during most of 2017. average prices for wti crude oil increased 17 % in 2017 compared to an 11 % decrease in 2016 and average prices for brent crude oil increased by 24 % in 2017 compared to a 17 % decrease in 2016. as a result , the average global rig count climbed 27 % in 2017 compared to a decline of 32 % in 2016 , primarily driven by increases in the north american rig count . over this same time period , our service revenue increased slightly by 2.4 % in 2017 compared to 2016 and decreased only 23 % in 2016 compared to 2015 , as demand for our analytical , diagnostic , and completion services was less impacted by the significant decrease in drilling activities . wells must be drilled and or completed , stimulated , cored and have reservoir fluid samples collected , before we see the benefits of the increased commodity prices . the improvements in global crude oil prices during 2017 are positive indicators of a balancing market and support for future investments , as we continued our focus on worldwide crude oil related projects , including those related to the development of fields offshore south america and in the middle east . product sales revenue product sales revenue , which is tied more to completions in north america , increased 43 % to $ 178.3 million in 2017 from $ 124.5 million in 2016 ; however , product sales revenue for 2016 decreased from $ 185.6 million in 2015 .the average rig count for the u.s. and canada increased 38 % during 2017 compared to a 45 % decrease in 2016. the 43 % increase in product sales revenue outpaced the rig count increase due to our differentiated well completion product sales surpassing the industry activity levels in north america . story_separator_special_tag based on recent developments , and modest strengthening in the price of crude oil and natural gas , we believe that the level of activities and workflows experienced in 2017 will continue into 2018 and will strengthen for north america . additionally , we believe the trend in recent public announcements of major offshore and international projects by our clients will continue , and these announcements are signs that a recovery of the offshore deepwater and international markets are also improving . an increase in the activities in these markets could positively impact our revenues , operating income and operating margins as well . we expect to meet ongoing working capital needs ,

( 3 ) average daily and year-end west texas intermediate crude spot price as reported by the u.s. energy information administration . ( 4 ) average daily and year-end europe brent crude spot price as reported by the u.s. energy information administration . ( 5 ) average daily and year-end henry hub natural gas spot price as reported by the u.s. energy information administration . 19 the prices for both wti and brent crude oil began to weaken after the opec meeting held in november 2014. average prices for the majority of the 2014 calendar year were in excess of $ 99 per barrel for wti and in excess of $ 105 per barrel for brent ; however , both were down to approximately $ 55 per barrel by the end of 2014 and less than $ 40 per barrel by the end of 2015. the volatility and significant reduction in the average price of crude oil during 2015 and 2016 resulted in a significant decrease in the activities associated with both the exploration and production of oil during 2015 and throughout most of 2016. however , crude oil prices , although still volatile , began to improve during the second half of 2016 and continued to strengthen during 2017 , especially during the second half of 2017. on average , pricing for crude oil improved over 16 % for 2017 over 2016 , which resulted in much improved levels of land-based activity associated with the exploration and production of oil in the united states . in north america , the land-based rig count decreased 62 % during 2015 and another 53 % during the first half of 2016 , which greatly impacted both services and product sales to this market over this time period . although the north america rig count improved at the end of 2016 it still remained almost 20 % below 2015 levels and continued to strengthen throughout most of 2017. we saw resilient levels of activities on development projects and producing fields in the u.s. unconventional reservoirs during the second half of 2016 which continued and expanded during 2017 as we began the recovery phase of this business cycle . outside of north america , activities associated with the exploration for and production of oil have also decreased from 2014 levels , although not as significantly as the land-based activities in north america . our clients ' activities in the international and deepwater markets declined during 2015 and 2016 and remained at these lower levels in 2017 ; however , we believe these markets have shown signs of recovery as our clients have announced several new major capital projects . results of operations operating results for the year ended december 31 , 2017 compared to the years ended december 31 , 2016 and 2015 we evaluate our operating results by analyzing revenue , operating income and net income margin ( defined as net income divided by total revenue ) . since we have a relatively fixed cost structure , increases in revenue generally translate into higher operating income results as well as net income margin percentages . results for the years ended december 31 , 2017 , 2016 and 2015 are summarized in the following chart : 20 results of operations as a percentage of applicable revenue are as follows ( dollars in thousands ) : replace_table_token_4_th services revenue services revenue increased to $ 481.5 million in 2017 from $ 470.3 million in 2016 ; however , services revenue for 2016 decreased from $ 612.0 million in 2015 . the upward trend in the average price of crude oil during 2017 resulted in continued strengthening of activities associated with the exploration and production of oil during the second half of 2017. however , the most significant increase was realized in onshore activities within the united states while the decrease in international activities continued during most of 2017. average prices for wti crude oil increased 17 % in 2017 compared to an 11 % decrease in 2016 and average prices for brent crude oil increased by 24 % in 2017 compared to a 17 % decrease in 2016. as a result , the average global rig count climbed 27 % in 2017 compared to a decline of 32 % in 2016 , primarily driven by increases in the north american rig count . over this same time period , our service revenue increased slightly by 2.4 % in 2017 compared to 2016 and decreased only 23 % in 2016 compared to 2015 , as demand for our analytical , diagnostic , and completion services was less impacted by the significant decrease in drilling activities . wells must be drilled and or completed , stimulated , cored and have reservoir fluid samples collected , before we see the benefits of the increased commodity prices . the improvements in global crude oil prices during 2017 are positive indicators of a balancing market and support for future investments , as we continued our focus on worldwide crude oil related projects , including those related to the development of fields offshore south america and in the middle east . product sales revenue product sales revenue , which is tied more to completions in north america , increased 43 % to $ 178.3 million in 2017 from $ 124.5 million in 2016 ; however , product sales revenue for 2016 decreased from $ 185.6 million in 2015 .the average rig count for the u.s. and canada increased 38 % during 2017 compared to a 45 % decrease in 2016. the 43 % increase in product sales revenue outpaced the rig count increase due to our differentiated well completion product sales surpassing the industry activity levels in north america . story_separator_special_tag based on recent developments , and modest strengthening in the price of crude oil and natural gas , we believe that the level of activities and workflows experienced in 2017 will continue into 2018 and will strengthen for north america . additionally , we believe the trend in recent public announcements of major offshore and international projects by our clients will continue , and these announcements are signs that a recovery of the offshore deepwater and international markets are also improving . an increase in the activities in these markets could positively impact our revenues , operating income and operating margins as well . we expect to meet ongoing working capital needs , capital expenditure requirements and funding of our dividend and share repurchase programs from a combination of cash on hand , cash flow from operating activities and available borrowings under our credit facility . critical accounting estimates the preparation of financial statements in accordance with u.s. gaap requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period . we

however when including the amount of future invoicing for contracts at each period end , the combined amount of deferred revenue and future invoicing was flat at both december 31 , 2013 and 2012 compared to the prior years . the change in deferred revenue plus future invoicing is essentially consistent with the change in agreement value at december 31 , 2013 and 2012 compared to the prior years and both metrics are reflective of flat contract bookings in both 2013 and 2012 compared to prior years . enrichment , client retention and dollar retention rates at december 31 , 2013 have all trended downward from 2011 levels . the enrichment and client retention rates include a 12-month period and as such the rates in 2013 and 2012 reflect the negative effects from the challenges associated with the implementation of the sales reorganization in early 2012 , high sales employee attrition during 2013 and 2012 , a difficult selling environment in europe during 2013 and 2012 and weaker demand for our data subscription products in 2013 , in part due to the phasing out of our standalone technology marketing navigator data product . critical accounting policies and estimates management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements , which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states of america ( ย“gaapย” ) . the preparation of these financial statements requires us to 15 make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets , liabilities , revenues and expenses , and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities . on an ongoing basis , we evaluate our policies and estimates , including but not limited to , those related to our revenue recognition , stock-based compensation , non-marketable investments , goodwill and intangible assets , income taxes , and valuation and impairment of marketable investments . management bases its estimates on historical experience , data available at the time the estimates are made and various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances , the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources . actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions . we consider the following accounting policies to be those that require the most subjective judgment or that involve uncertainty that could have a material impact on our financial statements . if actual results differ significantly from management 's estimates and projections , there could be a material effect on our financial statements . this is not a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies . in many cases , the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by gaap , with no need for management 's judgment in its application . there are also areas in which management 's judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result . for a discussion of our other accounting policies , see note 1 of the notes to consolidated financial statements beginning on page f-7 . revenue recognition . effective january 1 , 2011 we adopted update no . 2009-13 , ย“multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements ย— a consensus of the fasb emerging issues task forceย” ( asu 2009-13 ) . asu 2009-13 updates the previous multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance . the revised guidance primarily provides three significant changes : 1 ) it eliminates the need for objective and reliable evidence of the fair value for the undelivered element in order for a delivered item to be treated as a separate unit of accounting ; 2 ) it eliminates the residual method to allocate the arrangement consideration ; and 3 ) it modifies the fair value requirements of eitf issue 00-21 by providing ย“best estimate of selling priceย” in addition to vendor specific objective evidence and vendor objective evidence for determining the selling price of a deliverable . the adoption of asu 2009-13 did not have a material impact on our financial position , results of operations or cash flows . we generate revenues from licensing memberships to our research ( including our data subscription products ) , performing advisory services and consulting projects and hosting events . we execute contracts that govern the terms and conditions of each arrangement . revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists , the fee is fixed or determinable , services have been provided to the customer , and collectability is reasonably assured . our contracts may include either a single product or service or a combination of multiple products and services . revenues from contracts that contain multiple products or services are allocated among the separate units of accounting based on their relative selling prices ; however , the amount recognized is limited to the amount that is not contingent on future performance conditions . for example , when a discount off of list price is provided in a multiple element contract , the discount is applied ratably to the research and data products only ( which commence delivery on the first day of the contract ) , as the undelivered products in the contract ( advisory services or events ) would be refundable to the customer at list price if not delivered . we obtain the selling prices of our products and services based upon an analysis of standalone sales of these products and services during the year . research services revenues are recognized ratably over the term of the contract . advisory services revenues , such as workshops , speeches and advisory days , are recognized when the customer receives the agreed upon deliverable and consulting project revenues are recognized as the services are provided . reimbursed out-of-pocket expenses are recorded as advisory services revenue . event revenues are recognized upon completion of the event . story_separator_special_tag the increase in advisory and project consulting revenues in 2013 as compared to 2012 was generated in the second half of 2013 and was due primarily to both an increase in consulting headcount as we began to build out a dedicated consulting organization in 2013 as well as to increased productivity of our analyst personnel . please refer to the ย“segment resultsย” section below for a discussion of revenue and direct margin results by segment . 21 cost of services and fulfillment replace_table_token_8_th the increase in cost of services and fulfillment expenses during 2013 compared to the prior year is primarily due to a $ 6.0 million increase in compensation costs resulting primarily from an increase in the number of employees , an increase in incentive bonus payments and annual merit increases . in addition , 2013 included an increase in facility costs due to new office space in the asia pacific region in the second half of 2012 and an increase in service fees for cloud-based information systems . these increases were partially offset by a decrease in professional services fees related to the amount of surveys performed and a decrease in travel and entertainment expenses . we hired additional consulting employees in 2013 in support of our decision to build a dedicated consulting organization to provide research-based project consulting services to our clients , allowing our analysts to spend additional timing on writing research and providing shorter-term advisory services . we anticipate cost of services and fulfillment to continue to increase as a percentage of total revenues in 2014 as we plan to accelerate the pace of hiring in 2014 compared to 2013 with additional consulting personnel and product specialists . selling and marketing replace_table_token_9_th the increase in selling and marketing expenses during 2013 compared to the prior year is primarily due to a $ 5.2 million increase in compensation and benefits costs resulting from both an increase in sales and marketing employees and annual merit increases . in addition , 2013 included an increase in facility costs due to new office space in the asia pacific region in the second half of 2012 and an increase in service fees for cloud-based information systems . these increases were partially offset by a decrease in travel and entertainment expenses . subject to the business environment , we intend to expand our quota carrying sales force by approximately 5 % to 7 % in 2014 as compared to 2013. any resulting increase in contract bookings for our research services would generally be recognized over a twelve-month period , which typically results in an increase in selling and marketing expense as a percentage of revenues during periods of sales force expansion . general and administrative replace_table_token_10_th 22 the increase in general and administrative expenses during 2013 compared to the prior year is primarily due to a $ 0.8 million increase in compensation and benefits costs due to an increase in incentive bonus payments and annual merit increases . in addition , 2013 included an increase in recruiting costs to support company-wide hiring in 2013 as well as an increase in facility costs due to new office space in the asia pacific region in the second half of 2012 and an increase in service fees for cloud-based information systems . these increases were partially offset by a decrease in professional services fees primarily related to a decrease in information technology projects as 2012 included an update to our website and implementation of new customer relationship management software . depreciation depreciation expense increased $ 0.3 million during 2013 compared to the prior year primarily resulting from the initiation of depreciation for our new website in march 2012. amortization of intangible assets amortization expense has remained essentially consistent during 2013 as compared to the prior year . reorganization costs during 2013 we incurred $ 1.9 million of severance and related costs for the elimination of 31 jobs or approximately 2.5 % of our workforce worldwide to streamline our operations . essentially all costs incurred for the reorganization were paid during 2013. we incurred $ 1.4 million of severance and related costs during 2012 for the termination of 17 employees related to the sales reorganization and other cost reduction initiatives . essentially all of these costs were paid during 2012. income from operations income from operations declined $ 8.9 million during 2013 as compared to the prior year and declined to 7.3 % of total revenues in 2013 from 10.5 % in the prior year . the decrease in both dollars and as a percentage of total revenues during 2013 is due primarily to low revenue growth in 2013 combined with increased compensation costs in 2013 from additional headcount investments in our consulting and sales organizations and annual merit increases . we anticipate a small contraction in income from operations as a percentage of total revenues in 2014 as compared to 2013 as we plan to continue to invest in consulting and sales headcount in 2014. other income , net other income , net primarily consists of interest income on our marketable securities as well as gains ( losses ) on foreign currency . the decrease in other income , net during 2013 is primarily due to lower interest income earned in 2013 due to lower investment balances . gains ( losses ) on investments , net gains ( losses ) on investments , net include our share of equity method investment gains ( losses ) from our technology-related investment funds and gains ( losses ) from the sale of marketable securities . on october 30 , 2013 we sold our portfolio of auction rate securities ( par value $ 11.0 million ) for a realized loss of $ 1.9 million . in addition , in 2013 we realized an approximate $ 0.7 million loss from our equity method investments primarily from a decrease in the valuation of certain assets within the funds . during 2012 the valuation of the assets within these funds remained

31 , 2013 and 2012 , respectively . the $ 22.4 million decrease in cash provided from operations during 2013 is primarily attributable to a decrease in net income of $ 13.3 million in 2013 compared to

during 2013 primarily due to $ 118.2 million of purchases of our common stock , of which $ 75.1 ``` Suspicious Activity Report : however when including the amount of future invoicing for contracts at each period end , the combined amount of deferred revenue and future invoicing was flat at both december 31 , 2013 and 2012 compared to the prior years . the change in deferred revenue plus future invoicing is essentially consistent with the change in agreement value at december 31 , 2013 and 2012 compared to the prior years and both metrics are reflective of flat contract bookings in both 2013 and 2012 compared to prior years . enrichment , client retention and dollar retention rates at december 31 , 2013 have all trended downward from 2011 levels . the enrichment and client retention rates include a 12-month period and as such the rates in 2013 and 2012 reflect the negative effects from the challenges associated with the implementation of the sales reorganization in early 2012 , high sales employee attrition during 2013 and 2012 , a difficult selling environment in europe during 2013 and 2012 and weaker demand for our data subscription products in 2013 , in part due to the phasing out of our standalone technology marketing navigator data product . critical accounting policies and estimates management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements , which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states of america ( ย“gaapย” ) . the preparation of these financial statements requires us to 15 make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets , liabilities , revenues and expenses , and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities . on an ongoing basis , we evaluate our policies and estimates , including but not limited to , those related to our revenue recognition , stock-based compensation , non-marketable investments , goodwill and intangible assets , income taxes , and valuation and impairment of marketable investments . management bases its estimates on historical experience , data available at the time the estimates are made and various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances , the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources . actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions . we consider the following accounting policies to be those that require the most subjective judgment or that involve uncertainty that could have a material impact on our financial statements . if actual results differ significantly from management 's estimates and projections , there could be a material effect on our financial statements . this is not a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies . in many cases , the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by gaap , with no need for management 's judgment in its application . there are also areas in which management 's judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result . for a discussion of our other accounting policies , see note 1 of the notes to consolidated financial statements beginning on page f-7 . revenue recognition . effective january 1 , 2011 we adopted update no . 2009-13 , ย“multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements ย— a consensus of the fasb emerging issues task forceย” ( asu 2009-13 ) . asu 2009-13 updates the previous multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance . the revised guidance primarily provides three significant changes : 1 ) it eliminates the need for objective and reliable evidence of the fair value for the undelivered element in order for a delivered item to be treated as a separate unit of accounting ; 2 ) it eliminates the residual method to allocate the arrangement consideration ; and 3 ) it modifies the fair value requirements of eitf issue 00-21 by providing ย“best estimate of selling priceย” in addition to vendor specific objective evidence and vendor objective evidence for determining the selling price of a deliverable . the adoption of asu 2009-13 did not have a material impact on our financial position , results of operations or cash flows . we generate revenues from licensing memberships to our research ( including our data subscription products ) , performing advisory services and consulting projects and hosting events . we execute contracts that govern the terms and conditions of each arrangement . revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists , the fee is fixed or determinable , services have been provided to the customer , and collectability is reasonably assured . our contracts may include either a single product or service or a combination of multiple products and services . revenues from contracts that contain multiple products or services are allocated among the separate units of accounting based on their relative selling prices ; however , the amount recognized is limited to the amount that is not contingent on future performance conditions . for example , when a discount off of list price is provided in a multiple element contract , the discount is applied ratably to the research and data products only ( which commence delivery on the first day of the contract ) , as the undelivered products in the contract ( advisory services or events ) would be refundable to the customer at list price if not delivered . we obtain the selling prices of our products and services based upon an analysis of standalone sales of these products and services during the year . research services revenues are recognized ratably over the term of the contract . advisory services revenues , such as workshops , speeches and advisory days , are recognized when the customer receives the agreed upon deliverable and consulting project revenues are recognized as the services are provided . reimbursed out-of-pocket expenses are recorded as advisory services revenue . event revenues are recognized upon completion of the event . story_separator_special_tag the increase in advisory and project consulting revenues in 2013 as compared to 2012 was generated in the second half of 2013 and was due primarily to both an increase in consulting headcount as we began to build out a dedicated consulting organization in 2013 as well as to increased productivity of our analyst personnel . please refer to the ย“segment resultsย” section below for a discussion of revenue and direct margin results by segment . 21 cost of services and fulfillment replace_table_token_8_th the increase in cost of services and fulfillment expenses during 2013 compared to the prior year is primarily due to a $ 6.0 million increase in compensation costs resulting primarily from an increase in the number of employees , an increase in incentive bonus payments and annual merit increases . in addition , 2013 included an increase in facility costs due to new office space in the asia pacific region in the second half of 2012 and an increase in service fees for cloud-based information systems . these increases were partially offset by a decrease in professional services fees related to the amount of surveys performed and a decrease in travel and entertainment expenses . we hired additional consulting employees in 2013 in support of our decision to build a dedicated consulting organization to provide research-based project consulting services to our clients , allowing our analysts to spend additional timing on writing research and providing shorter-term advisory services . we anticipate cost of services and fulfillment to continue to increase as a percentage of total revenues in 2014 as we plan to accelerate the pace of hiring in 2014 compared to 2013 with additional consulting personnel and product specialists . selling and marketing replace_table_token_9_th the increase in selling and marketing expenses during 2013 compared to the prior year is primarily due to a $ 5.2 million increase in compensation and benefits costs resulting from both an increase in sales and marketing employees and annual merit increases . in addition , 2013 included an increase in facility costs due to new office space in the asia pacific region in the second half of 2012 and an increase in service fees for cloud-based information systems . these increases were partially offset by a decrease in travel and entertainment expenses . subject to the business environment , we intend to expand our quota carrying sales force by approximately 5 % to 7 % in 2014 as compared to 2013. any resulting increase in contract bookings for our research services would generally be recognized over a twelve-month period , which typically results in an increase in selling and marketing expense as a percentage of revenues during periods of sales force expansion . general and administrative replace_table_token_10_th 22 the increase in general and administrative expenses during 2013 compared to the prior year is primarily due to a $ 0.8 million increase in compensation and benefits costs due to an increase in incentive bonus payments and annual merit increases . in addition , 2013 included an increase in recruiting costs to support company-wide hiring in 2013 as well as an increase in facility costs due to new office space in the asia pacific region in the second half of 2012 and an increase in service fees for cloud-based information systems . these increases were partially offset by a decrease in professional services fees primarily related to a decrease in information technology projects as 2012 included an update to our website and implementation of new customer relationship management software . depreciation depreciation expense increased $ 0.3 million during 2013 compared to the prior year primarily resulting from the initiation of depreciation for our new website in march 2012. amortization of intangible assets amortization expense has remained essentially consistent during 2013 as compared to the prior year . reorganization costs during 2013 we incurred $ 1.9 million of severance and related costs for the elimination of 31 jobs or approximately 2.5 % of our workforce worldwide to streamline our operations . essentially all costs incurred for the reorganization were paid during 2013. we incurred $ 1.4 million of severance and related costs during 2012 for the termination of 17 employees related to the sales reorganization and other cost reduction initiatives . essentially all of these costs were paid during 2012. income from operations income from operations declined $ 8.9 million during 2013 as compared to the prior year and declined to 7.3 % of total revenues in 2013 from 10.5 % in the prior year . the decrease in both dollars and as a percentage of total revenues during 2013 is due primarily to low revenue growth in 2013 combined with increased compensation costs in 2013 from additional headcount investments in our consulting and sales organizations and annual merit increases . we anticipate a small contraction in income from operations as a percentage of total revenues in 2014 as compared to 2013 as we plan to continue to invest in consulting and sales headcount in 2014. other income , net other income , net primarily consists of interest income on our marketable securities as well as gains ( losses ) on foreign currency . the decrease in other income , net during 2013 is primarily due to lower interest income earned in 2013 due to lower investment balances . gains ( losses ) on investments , net gains ( losses ) on investments , net include our share of equity method investment gains ( losses ) from our technology-related investment funds and gains ( losses ) from the sale of marketable securities . on october 30 , 2013 we sold our portfolio of auction rate securities ( par value $ 11.0 million ) for a realized loss of $ 1.9 million . in addition , in 2013 we realized an approximate $ 0.7 million loss from our equity method investments primarily from a decrease in the valuation of certain assets within the funds . during 2012 the valuation of the assets within these funds remained

revenues generated by our other professionals , or full-time equivalents , are largely dependent on the number of consultants we employ , their hours worked , and billing rates charged , as well as the number of pages reviewed and amount of data processed in the case of our document review and electronic data discovery groups , respectively . we generate the majority of our revenues from providing professional services under four types of billing arrangements : time-and-expense , fixed-fee ( including software license revenue ) , performance-based , and support and maintenance for the software we deploy . time-and-expense billing arrangements require the client to pay based on either the number of hours worked , the number of pages reviewed , or the amount of data processed by our revenue-generating professionals at agreed upon rates . we recognize revenues under time-and-expense billing arrangements as the related services are rendered . time-and-expense engagements represented 43.6 % , 44.9 % , and 47.7 % of our revenues in 2014 , 2013 , and 2012 , respectively . in fixed-fee billing arrangements , we agree to a pre-established fee in exchange for a predetermined set of professional services . we set the fees based on our estimates of the costs and timing for completing the engagements . it is the client 's expectation in these engagements that the pre-established fee will not be exceeded except in mutually agreed upon circumstances . we generally recognize revenues under fixed-fee billing arrangements using a proportionate performance approach , which is based on work completed to-date versus our estimates of the total services to be provided under the engagement . we generate revenues from licensing two types of proprietary software to clients : revenue cycle management software and research administration and compliance software . licenses for our revenue cycle management software are 27 sold only as a component of our consulting projects , and the services we provide are essential to the functionality of the software . therefore , revenues from these software licenses are recognized over the term of the related consulting services contract , which are typically fixed-fee . license revenue from our research administration and compliance software is generally recognized in the month in which the software is delivered . for the years ended december 31 , 2014 , 2013 , and 2012 , fixed-fee engagements ( including software license revenue ) represented approximately 39.6 % , 37.2 % , and 34.7 % of our revenues , respectively . in performance-based fee billing arrangements , fees are tied to the attainment of contractually defined objectives . we enter into performance-based engagements in essentially two forms . first , we generally earn fees that are directly related to the savings formally acknowledged by the client as a result of adopting our recommendations for improving operational and cost effectiveness in the areas we review . second , we have performance-based engagements in which we earn a success fee when and if certain predefined outcomes occur . often , performance-based fees supplement our time-and-expense or fixed-fee engagements . we do not recognize revenues under performance-based billing arrangements until all related performance criteria are met . performance-based fee revenues represented 13.5 % , 14.6 % , and 14.2 % of our revenues in 2014 , 2013 , and 2012 , respectively . performance-based fee engagements may cause significant variations in quarterly revenues and operating results depending on the timing of achieving the performance-based criteria . clients that have purchased one of our software licenses can pay an annual fee for software support and maintenance . annual support and maintenance fee revenue is recognized ratably over the support period , which is generally one year . these fees are typically billed in advance and included in deferred revenues until recognized . support and maintenance revenues represented 3.3 % , 3.3 % , and 3.4 % of our revenues in 2014 , 2013 , and 2012 , respectively . our quarterly results are impacted principally by our full-time consultants ' utilization rate , the billing rates we charge our clients , the number of our revenue-generating professionals who are available to work , and the amount of performance-based fees recognized , which often vary significantly between quarters . our utilization rate can be negatively affected by increased hiring because there is generally a transition period for new professionals that results in a temporary drop in our utilization rate . our utilization rate can also be affected by seasonal variations in the demand for our services from our clients . for example , during the third and fourth quarters of the year , vacations taken by our clients can result in the deferral of activity on existing and new engagements , which would negatively affect our utilization rate . the number of business work days is also affected by the number of vacation days taken by our consultants and holidays in each quarter . we typically have fewer business work days available in the fourth quarter of the year , which can impact revenues during that period . time-and-expense engagements do not provide us with a high degree of predictability as to performance in future periods . unexpected changes in the demand for our services can result in significant variations in utilization and revenues and present a challenge to optimal hiring and staffing . moreover , our clients typically retain us on an engagement-by-engagement basis , rather than under long-term recurring contracts . the volume of work performed for any particular client can vary widely from period to period . reimbursable expenses reimbursable expenses that are billed to clients , primarily relating to travel and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with engagements , are included in total revenues and reimbursable expenses , and typically an equivalent amount of these expenses are included in total direct costs and reimbursable expenses . reimbursable expenses also include those subcontractors who are billed to our clients at cost . story_separator_special_tag net litigation and other gains totaled $ 5.9 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013. these gains primarily consisted of a $ 5.3 million gain that was recorded as a result of reaching a settlement agreement to resolve a lawsuit brought by huron . depreciation and amortization expense increased $ 4.5 million , or 22.0 % , to $ 25.0 million for the year ended december 31 , 2014 , from $ 20.5 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013. the increase primarily related to the amortization of intangible assets from businesses acquired during 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2013 , as well as the depreciation of network equipment and leasehold improvements that were placed into service during the second half of 2013 and first half of 2014. intangible asset amortization included within operating expenses relates to customer relationships , non-competition agreements , trade names , and licenses acquired in connection with our acquisitions . 35 operating income operating income increased $ 3.1 million , or 2.6 % , to $ 123.0 million for the year ended december 31 , 2014 , from $ 119.9 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013. operating margin , which is defined as operating income expressed as a percentage of revenues , decreased to 15.2 % in 2014 compared to 16.6 % in 2013. the decrease in operating margin was primarily attributable to the increase in salaries and related expenses for our revenue-generating professionals as a percentage of revenues and the decrease in litigation and other gains , partially offset by revenue growth that outpaced the increase in bonus expense for our revenue-generating professionals . other expense , net other expense , net increased $ 2.1 million , or 33.9 % , to $ 8.4 million for the year ended december 31 , 2014 , from $ 6.3 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013. interest expense , net of interest income increased by $ 2.2 million , primarily from interest expense recorded for our convertible notes issued in september 2014 , partially offset by a decrease in our borrowing levels under our senior secured credit facility . for 2014 , interest expense related to the convertible notes totaled $ 3.5 million , consisting of $ 1.0 million for the stated coupon of the convertible notes and $ 2.5 million for the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs . for the year ending december 31 , 2015 , we expect interest expense related to the coupon of the convertible notes to be $ 3.1 million and interest expense for the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs related to the convertible notes to be $ 8.3 million . income tax expense for the year ended december 31 , 2014 , we recognized income tax expense from continuing operations of $ 35.6 million on income from continuing operations of $ 114.6 million , for an effective tax rate of 31.0 % . for the year ended december 31 , 2013 , we recognized income tax expense from continuing operations of $ 47.2 million on income from continuing operations of $ 113.6 million , for an effective tax rate of 41.5 % . our effective tax rate for 2014 was lower than the statutory rate , inclusive of state income taxes , primarily due to the impact of a tax election made in the first quarter of 2014 to classify one of our wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries as a disregarded entity for u.s. federal income tax purposes ( commonly referred to as a ย“check-the-boxย” election ) . as a result of this election , we expect to realize an income tax benefit of $ 13.8 million , of which $ 2.4 million is unrecognized , resulting in a net recognized tax benefit of $ 11.4 million . this recognized benefit was partially offset by $ 1.2 million in expenses related to the establishment of a valuation allowance for certain foreign tax credits and increased deferred tax liabilities as a result of the aforementioned election . our effective tax rate for 2013 was higher than the statutory rate , inclusive of state income taxes , primarily due to the impact of foreign losses with no tax benefit and certain non-deductible business expenses , partially offset by the impact of certain credits and deductions . net income from continuing operations net income from continuing operations was $ 79.1 million for the year ended december 31 , 2014 , compared to $ 66.5 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013. the $ 12.6 million increase in net income from continuing operations was primarily due to the increase in operating income , as well as the decrease in income tax expense , as discussed above . as a result of the increase in net income from continuing operations , diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the year ended december 31 , 2014 was $ 3.45 compared to $ 2.92 for 2013. ebitda and adjusted ebitda ebitda increased $ 9.4 million , or 6.5 % , to $ 152.9 million for the year ended december 31 , 2014 , from $ 143.5 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013. adjusted ebitda increased $ 17.4 million , or 12.5 % , to $ 155.7 million in 2014 from $ 138.4 million in 2013. the increase in ebitda was primarily due to the increase in the segment operating income , as discussed below in segment results , partially offset by an increase in corporate expenses and a decrease in litigation and other gains . the increase in adjusted ebitda was primarily due to the increase in segment operating income , partially offset by an increase in corporate expenses , excluding the impact of the restructuring charges and litigation and other gains . 36 adjusted net income from continuing operations adjusted net income from continuing operations increased $ 11.0 million , or 16.3 % , to $

the convertible notes totaled $ 3.5 million , consisting of $ 1.0 million for the stated coupon of the convertible notes and $ 2.5 million for the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs . for the year ending december 31 , 2015 , we expect interest expense related to the coupon of the convertible notes to be $ 3.1 million and interest expense for the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs related to the convertible notes to be $ 8.3 million . income tax expense for the year ended december 31 , 2014 , we recognized income tax expense from continuing operations of $ 35.6 million on income from continuing operations of $ 114.6 million , for an effective tax rate of 31.0 % . for the year ended december 31 , 2013 , we recognized income tax expense from continuing operations of $ 47.2 million on income from continuing operations of $ 113.6 million , for an effective tax rate of 41.5 % . our effective tax rate for 2014 was lower than the statutory rate , inclusive of state income taxes , primarily due to the impact of a tax election made in the first quarter of 2014 to classify one of our wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries as a disregarded entity for u.s. federal income tax purposes ( commonly referred to as a ย“check-the-boxย” election ) . as a result of this election , we expect to realize an income tax benefit of $ 13.8 million , of which $ 2.4 million is unrecognized , resulting in a net recognized tax benefit of $ 11.4 million . this recognized benefit was partially offset by $ 1.2 million in expenses related to the establishment of a valuation allowance for certain foreign tax credits and increased deferred tax liabilities as a result of the aforementioned election . our effective tax rate for 2013 was higher than the statutory rate , inclusive of state income taxes , primarily due to the impact of foreign losses with no tax benefit and certain non-deductible business expenses , partially offset by the impact of certain credits and deductions . net income from continuing operations net income from continuing operations was $ 79.1 million for the year ended december 31 , 2014 , compared to $ 66.5 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013. the $ 12.6 million increase in net income from continuing operations was primarily due to the increase in operating income , as well as the decrease in income tax expense , as discussed above . as a result of the increase in net income from continuing operations , diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the year ended december 31 , 2014 was $ 3.45 compared to $ 2.92 for 2013. ebitda and adjusted ebitda ebitda increased $ 9.4 million , or 6.5 % , to $ 152.9 million for the year ended december 31 , 2014 , from $ 143.5 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013. adjusted ebitda increased $ 17.4 million , or 12.5 % , to $ 155.7 million in 2014 from $ 138.4 million in 2013. the increase in ebitda was primarily due to the increase in the segment operating income , as discussed below in segment results , partially offset by an increase in corporate expenses and a decrease in litigation and other gains . the increase in adjusted ebitda was primarily due to the increase in segment operating income , partially offset by an increase in corporate expenses , excluding the impact of the restructuring charges and litigation and other gains . 36 adjusted net income from continuing operations adjusted net income from continuing operations increased $ 11.0 million , or 16.3 % , to $

ethane demand is expected to ramp up as new world-scale ethylene production projects , petrochemical plant modifications , plant expansions and export facilities near completion and begin coming on line in 2017. we expect increases in future ethane recoveries to have a favorable impact on oneok partners ' financial results , beginning primarily in the second half of 2017. growth projects - oneok partners completed its bear creek natural gas processing plant and related infrastructure projects in august 2016. these projects expand oneok partners ' natural gas gathering and processing and natural gas liquids gathering infrastructure in the williston basin to capture natural gas from new wells and natural gas previously flared by producers . in the natural gas pipelines segment , phase i of the roadrunner pipeline was completed in march 2016. phase ii of the roadrunner pipeline and the westex pipeline expansion project were completed in october 2016 , ahead of original schedule and below cost estimates . the roadrunner pipeline transports natural gas from the permian basin in west texas to the mexican border near el paso , texas , and together with oneok partners ' westex intrastate natural gas transmission pipeline , creates a platform for future opportunities to deliver natural gas supply to mexico . the execution of these capital investments aligns with oneok partners ' strategy to generate consistent growth and sustainable earnings through long-term fee-based projects . oneok partners ' contractual commitments from crude oil and natural gas producers , natural gas processors and electric generators are expected to provide incremental cash flows and long-term fee-based earnings . change in presentation of financial results - our chief operating decision-maker reviews the financial performance of each of oneok partners ' three segments , as well as our financial performance , on a regular basis . beginning in 2016 , adjusted ebitda by segment is utilized in this evaluation . we believe this financial measure is useful to investors because it and similar measures are used by many companies in our industry as a measurement of financial performance and are commonly employed by financial analysts and others to evaluate our financial performance and to compare financial performance among companies in our industry . see reconciliation of net income to adjusted ebitda in the โ€œ adjusted ebitda โ€ section . dividends/distributions -

weeks , accounting for 371 days in the aggregate . our first quarter consists of four four-week periods , while our last three quarters normally consist of three four-week periods . comparability between quarters may be affected by the varying lengths of the quarters , as well as the seasonality associated with the restaurant business . same-store sales as a result of the covid-19 pandemic , we do not believe that a comparison of year-to-year restaurant sales is meaningful , and therefore , same-store sales are not presented in this annual report on form 10-k. 17 results of operations

stores were temporarily closed due to the pandemic . as of the last week of fiscal 2020 , sales at operating stores decreased 18 % compared to the same week of fiscal 2019. the approximate $ 35.1 million decrease in sales at stand-alone fuddruckers restaurants reflects primarily the reduction of 36 operating restaurants accounting for a decrease of $ 25.5 million . the stores that did not close on a permanent basis accounted for a decrease of $ 9.6 million due to fewer operating days due to the pandemic . store days at these locations declined 22.7 % due to temporary closures from the pandemic . as of the last week of the fiscal 2020 , sales at operating stores decreased 37 % compared to the same week of fiscal 2019. the approximate $ 6.8 million decrease in sales from combo

guest traffic volume . as a percentage of restaurant sales , food costs increased 0.7 % to 28.6 % in fiscal 2020 compared to 27.9 % in fiscal 2019. the cost of food as percentage of sales was impacted in part by the write off of food inventories for stores closed due to the pandemic . for stores that are not permanently closed , as a result of the pandemic , we have tried to simplify the menu and reduce waste to reduce food cost as a percentage of sales . the cost of food as a percentage of restaurant sales in the luby 's cafeteria segment increased 0.3 % to 28.7 % in fiscal 2020 compared to fiscal 2019 due in part to the reasons and initiatives stated above . the cost of food as a percentage of restaurant sales for the fuddruckers restaurants segment increased 1.6 % in fiscal 2020 compared to fiscal 2019. the cost of food as a percentage of restaurant sales for the cheeseburger in paradise segment increased 0.8 % in fiscal 2020 compared to fiscal 2019. payroll and related costs

prepayment programs ; oil and gas royalty income ; and changes in the fair value of our interest rate swap agreement prior to its termination in december 2018. other income was approximately $ 1.2 million in fiscal 2020 compared to approximately $ 0.2 million in fiscal 2019. the approximate $ 1.2 million of income in fiscal 2020 is primarily net rental income , partially offset by sales tax discount expense and a reduction in the fair value of our interest rate swap in the first quarter fiscal 2019. the approximate $ 0.2 million of income in fiscal 2019 primarily reflects net rental income and an increase in the fair value of our interest rate swap , partially offset by gift card expenses ( specifically the expense of discounting gift card sales ) . taxes the income tax provision related to continuing operations for fiscal 2020 was approximately $ 0.4 million compared to an income tax provision of approximately $ 0.5 million for fiscal 2019. the income tax provision in fiscal 2020 reflects $ 0.3 million of current state income tax and $ 0.1 million of international withholding taxes . the income tax provision in fiscal 2019 reflects $ 0.4 million of current state income tax and $ 0.1 million of international withholding taxes . the effective tax rate ( `` etr `` ) for continuing operations was a negative 1.2 % for fiscal 2020 and a negative 3.2 % for fiscal 2019. the etr for fiscal 2020 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21 % due to the change in the deferred tax valuation allowance , state income taxes and other discrete items . the etr for fiscal 2019

when the amount of loan forgiveness is determined by the sba and lender or 10 months after the 24 week covered period ends . initially , all payments were to be deferred for six months . under the new act , payments are deferred until the sba remits any loan forgiveness amount to the lender , tcb in the case of the company . interest accrues over the entire period of the ppp loan for the portion of the ppp that is not ultimately forgiven . on november 12 , 2020 , the company submitted an application for forgiveness of the entire amount

this increase is primarily due to higher average debt balances , including additional borrowings incurred in late 2009 primarily to support our strategic plans , and higher costs related to the execution and maintenance of our revolving credit facility executed in june 2010 ; and net income attributable to waste management , inc. of $ 953 million , or $ 1.98 per diluted share for 2010 , as compared with $ 994 million , or $ 2.01 per diluted share in 2009. the comparability of our 2010 results with 2009 has been affected by certain items management believes are not representative or indicative of our performance . our 2010 results were affected by the following : the recognition of pre-tax charges aggregating $ 55 million related to remediation and closure costs at five closed sites , which had a negative impact of $ 0.07 on our diluted earnings per share ; the recognition of net tax charges of $ 32 million due to refinements in estimates of our deferred state income taxes and the finalization of our 2009 tax returns , partially offset by favorable tax audit settlements , all of which , combined , had a negative impact of $ 0.07 on our diluted earnings per share ; 26 the recognition of a net favorable pre-tax benefit of $ 46 million for litigation and associated costs , which had a favorable impact of $ 0.06 on our diluted earnings per share ; and the recognition of net pre-tax charges of $ 26 million as a result of the withdrawal of certain of our union bargaining units from an underfunded multiemployer pension plan , which had a negative impact of $ 0.03 on our diluted earnings per share . our 2009 results were affected by the following : the recognition of a tax benefit of $ 130 million due principally to favorable adjustments from the carry-back of a capital loss , the recognition of state net operating losses and tax credits , the finalization of our 2008 tax returns , the impact of tax audit settlements and the revaluation of deferred taxes due to canadian tax rate reductions . these items had a combined favorable impact of $ 0.26 on our diluted earnings per share ; the recognition of impairment charges totaling $ 83 million due primarily to the abandonment of revenue management software and a change in expectations for the future operations of an inactive landfill in california . these items had a negative impact of $ 0.10 on our diluted earnings per share ; and the recognition of pre-tax charges of $ 50 million related to our 2009 restructuring , primarily related to severance and benefit costs . these restructuring charges reduced diluted earnings per share for the year by $ 0.06. we are pleased about the lower rate of decline in internal revenue growth from volumes that we experienced during 2010. on the pricing front , our fourth quarter 2010 results were the strongest of the year . for both the fourth quarter and the full year of 2010 , we outpaced our long-term pricing objective of achieving price increases in the range of 50 to 100 basis points above the consumer price index , or cpi . in 2011 , we will remain committed to our pricing discipline . based on an anticipated cpi run-rate of 1.0 % , we expect our overall revenue growth from yield to be approximately 2.0 % . additionally , we expect our revenue growth from volumes to be flat to slightly positive . however , we are mindful of trends toward waste reduction at the source , diversion from landfills and customers seeking alternative methods of disposal . we will continue to implement measures that we believe will grow our business , improve our current operations performance and enhance and expand our services . free cash flow as is our practice , we are presenting free cash flow , which is a non-gaap measure of liquidity , in our disclosures because we use this measure in the evaluation and management of our business . we define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities , less capital expenditures , plus proceeds from divestitures of businesses ( net of cash divested ) and other sales of assets . we believe it is indicative of our ability to pay our quarterly dividends , repurchase common stock , fund acquisitions and other investments and , in the absence of refinancings , to repay our debt obligations . free cash flow is not intended to replace ย“net cash provided by operating activities , ย” which is the most comparable u.s. gaap measure . however , we believe free cash flow gives investors useful insight into how we view our liquidity . nonetheless , the use of free cash flow as a liquidity measure has material limitations because it excludes certain expenditures that are required or that we have committed to , such as declared dividend payments and debt service requirements . our calculation of free cash flow and reconciliation to ย“net cash provided by operating activitiesย” is shown in the table below ( in millions ) , and may not be the same as similarly titled measures presented by other companies : replace_table_token_9_th 27 our free cash flow was consistent in both years , however our cash provided by operating activities decreased $ 87 million and our capital expenditures decreased $ 75 million . the decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to net unfavorable changes in working capital , increased interest payments and higher income tax payments . these decreases in operating cash flow were partially offset by a cash benefit of $ 77 million resulting from a litigation settlement that occurred in april 2010. payments made in 2009 related to severance and benefits costs associated with our 2009 restructuring also affected the comparability of our operating cash flow for the periods presented . story_separator_special_tag internally developed estimates are based on : management 's judgment and experience in remediating our own and unrelated parties ' sites ; information available from regulatory agencies as to costs of remediation ; the number , financial resources and relative degree of responsibility of other prps who may be liable for remediation of a specific site ; and the typical allocation of costs among prps unless the actual allocation has been determined . 31 asset impairments our long-lived assets , including landfills and landfill expansions , are carried on our financial statements based on their cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization . we monitor the carrying value of our long-lived assets for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable . these events or changes in circumstances are referred to as impairment indicators . if an impairment indicator occurs , we perform a test of recoverability by comparing the carrying value of the asset or asset group to its undiscounted expected future cash flows . if cash flows can not be separately and independently identified for a single asset , we will determine whether an impairment has occurred for the group of assets for which we can identify the projected cash flows . if the carrying values are in excess of undiscounted expected future cash flows , we measure any impairment by comparing the fair value of the asset or asset group to its carrying value . fair value is generally determined by considering ( i ) internally developed discounted projected cash flow analysis of the asset or asset group ; ( ii ) actual third-party valuations ; and or ( iii ) information available regarding the current market for similar assets . if the fair value of an asset or asset group is determined to be less than the carrying amount of the asset or asset group , an impairment in the amount of the difference is recorded in the period that the impairment indicator occurs and is included in the ย“ ( income ) expense from divestitures , asset impairments and unusual itemsย” line item in our consolidated statement of operations . estimating future cash flows requires significant judgment and projections may vary from the cash flows eventually realized , which could impact our ability to accurately assess whether an asset has been impaired . there are other considerations for impairments of landfills and goodwill , as described below . landfills ย— certain impairment indicators require significant judgment and understanding of the waste industry when applied to landfill development or expansion projects . for example , a regulator may initially deny a landfill expansion permit application though the expansion permit is ultimately granted . in addition , management may periodically divert waste from one landfill to another to conserve remaining permitted landfill airspace . therefore , certain events could occur in the ordinary course of business and not necessarily be considered indicators of impairment of our landfill assets due to the unique nature of the waste industry . goodwill ย— at least annually , we assess our goodwill for impairment . we assess whether an impairment exists by comparing the fair value of each operating segment to its carrying value , including goodwill . we use a combination of two valuation methods , a market approach and an income approach , to estimate the fair value of our operating segments . fair value computed by these two methods is arrived at using a number of factors , including projected future operating results , economic projections , anticipated future cash flows , comparable marketplace data and the cost of capital . there are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and to our judgment in applying them to this analysis . however , we believe that these two methods provide a reasonable approach to estimating the fair value of our operating segments . the market approach estimates fair value by measuring the aggregate market value of publicly-traded companies with similar characteristics of our business as a multiple of their reported cash flows . we then apply that multiple to our operating segments ' cash flows to estimate their fair values . we believe that this approach is appropriate because it provides a fair value estimate using valuation inputs from entities with operations and economic characteristics comparable to our operating segments . the income approach is based on the long-term projected future cash flows of our operating segments . we discount the estimated cash flows to present value using a weighted-average cost of capital that considers factors such as the timing of the cash flows and the risks inherent in those cash flows . we believe that this approach is appropriate because it provides a fair value estimate based upon our operating segments ' expected long-term performance considering the economic and market conditions that generally affect our business . additional impairment assessments may be performed on an interim basis if we encounter events or changes in circumstances that would indicate that , more likely than not , the carrying value of goodwill has been impaired . see note 6 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information related to goodwill impairment considerations made during the reported periods . 32 deferred income taxes deferred income taxes are based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities . the deferred income tax provision represents the change during the reporting period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities , net of the effect of acquisitions and dispositions . deferred tax assets include tax loss and credit carry-forwards and are reduced by a valuation allowance if , based on available evidence , it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized . significant judgment is required in assessing the timing and amounts of deductible and taxable items . we establish reserves for uncertain tax positions when ,

( ii ) actual third-party valuations ; and or ( iii ) information available regarding the current market for similar assets . if the fair value of an asset or asset group is determined to be less than the carrying amount of the asset or asset group , an impairment in the amount of the difference is recorded in the period that the impairment indicator occurs and is included in the ย“ ( income ) expense from divestitures , asset impairments and unusual itemsย” line item in our consolidated statement of operations . estimating future cash flows requires significant judgment and projections may vary from the cash flows eventually realized , which could impact our ability to accurately assess whether an asset has been impaired . there are other considerations for impairments of landfills and goodwill , as described below . landfills ย— certain impairment indicators require significant judgment and understanding of the waste industry when applied to landfill development or expansion projects . for example , a regulator may initially deny a landfill expansion permit application though the expansion permit is ultimately granted . in addition , management may periodically divert waste from one landfill to another to conserve remaining permitted landfill airspace . therefore , certain events could occur in the ordinary course of business and not necessarily be considered indicators of impairment of our landfill assets due to the unique nature of the waste industry . goodwill ย— at least annually , we assess our goodwill for impairment . we assess whether an impairment exists by comparing the fair value of each operating segment to its carrying value , including goodwill . we use a combination of two valuation methods , a market approach and an income approach , to estimate the fair value of our operating segments . fair value computed by these two methods is arrived at using a number of factors , including projected future operating results , economic projections , anticipated future cash flows , comparable marketplace data and the cost of capital . there are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and to our judgment in applying them to this analysis . however , we believe that these two methods provide a reasonable approach to estimating the fair value of our operating segments . the market approach estimates fair value by measuring the aggregate market value of publicly-traded companies with similar characteristics of our business as a multiple of their reported cash flows . we then apply that multiple to our operating segments ' cash flows to estimate their fair values . we believe that this approach is appropriate because it provides a fair value estimate using valuation inputs from entities with operations and economic characteristics comparable to our operating segments . the income approach is based on the long-term projected future cash flows of our operating segments . we discount the estimated cash flows to present value using a weighted-average cost of capital that considers factors such as the timing of the cash flows and the risks inherent in those cash flows . we believe that this approach is appropriate because it provides a fair value estimate based upon our operating segments ' expected long-term performance considering the economic and market conditions that generally affect our business . additional impairment assessments may be performed on an interim basis if we encounter events or changes in circumstances that would indicate that , more likely than not , the carrying value of goodwill has been impaired . see note 6 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information related to goodwill impairment considerations made during the reported periods . 32 deferred income taxes deferred income taxes are based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities . the deferred income tax provision represents the change during the reporting period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities , net of the effect of acquisitions and dispositions . deferred tax assets include tax loss and credit carry-forwards and are reduced by a valuation allowance if , based on available evidence , it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized . significant judgment is required in assessing the timing and amounts of deductible and taxable items . we establish reserves for uncertain tax positions when ,

this collaboration agreement is currently focused on the discovery of new therapeutics for ophthalmic indications and originally provided for a three-year research term , which has been extended by the parties through march 2013. our two other collaboration agreements with allergan involve the development of product candidates in the areas of 39 chronic pain and glaucoma . we are eligible to receive payments upon achievement of development and regulatory milestones , as well as royalties on future product sales , if any , under each of our three collaboration agreements with allergan . each of our agreements with allergan is subject to early termination upon specified events , including , in the case of one of our agreements , if we have a change in control . upon the conclusion of the research term under each agreement , allergan may terminate the agreement by notice . in march 2009 , we entered into a collaboration agreement with meiji seika pharma . under the agreement , we are eligible to receive up to $ 25 million in aggregate payments , consisting of $ 3 million in license fees and up to $ 22 million in payments upon achievement of development and regulatory milestones in the licensed asian territory . in addition , we are eligible to receive royalties on future product sales , if any , in the asian territory . meiji seika pharma also is responsible for the first $ 15 million of designated development expenses and we will share the remaining expenses through clinical proof-of-concept , subject to possible adjustment in the event we further license the program outside of the asian territory . as of december 31 , 2011 , we had received an aggregate of $ 4.3 million in payments from meiji seika pharma , consisting of license fees and reimbursed research and development expenses . our agreement with meiji seika pharma is subject to early termination upon specified events . in may 2009 , we entered into a collaboration agreement with biovail , pursuant to which we received a non-refundable $ 30 million upfront payment . under this collaboration , we also were eligible to receive potential development , regulatory and sales milestones as well as royalties on future net sales of pimavanserin . in october 2010 , we entered an agreement with biovail to regain all rights to pimavanserin and conclude our collaboration . in connection with this agreement , we recorded all remaining revenues related to our collaboration biovail , which totaled $ 34.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2010. we recognized aggregate revenues relating to the biovail collaboration of $ 39.5 million during the year ended december 31 , 2010. we have no future obligations to biovail . research and development expenses our research and development expenses have consisted primarily of fees paid to external service providers , salaries and related personnel expenses , facilities and equipment expenses , and other costs . we charge all research and development expenses to operations as incurred . our research and development activities are primarily focused on our most advanced product candidates , including pimavanserin . we currently are responsible for all costs incurred in the development of pimavanserin as well as for the costs associated with our other internal programs . pursuant to our collaboration , meiji seika pharma is responsible for the first $ 15 million of designated development expenses for the product candidate , am-831 , and we and meiji seika pharma will share remaining expenses through clinical proof-of-concept , subject to possible adjustment . as of december 31 , 2011 , approximately $ 2.8 million of the designated development expenses had been incurred . we expect to coordinate a significant portion of the planned external development services and , accordingly , we may incur the related development costs for these external services and receive reimbursement of meiji seika pharma 's portion of these costs pursuant to the agreement . meiji seika pharma is responsible for all costs associated with the development of am-831 in the asian territory . we are not responsible for , nor have we incurred , development expenses in our clinical programs for chronic pain and glaucoma , which we are pursuing in collaboration with allergan . 40 we use external service providers to manufacture our product candidates to be used in clinical trials and for the majority of the services performed in connection with the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidates . we have used our internal research and development resources , including our employees and discovery infrastructure , across several projects and many of our costs have not been attributable to a specific project but were directed to broadly applicable research activities . accordingly , we have not reported our internal research and development costs on a project basis . to the extent that external expenses are not attributable to a specific project , they are included in other external costs . the following table summarizes our research and development expenses for the years ended december 31 , 2011 , 2010 , and 2009 ( in thousands ) : replace_table_token_4_th at this time , due to the risks inherent in the clinical trial process and given the stage of development of our programs , we are unable to estimate with any certainty the costs we will incur for the continued development of our product candidates for potential commercialization . due to these same factors , we are unable to determine the anticipated completion dates for our current research and development programs . clinical development timelines , probability of success , and development costs vary widely . story_separator_special_tag the decrease in internal research and development costs was primarily attributable to $ 4.3 million in decreased salaries and related personnel costs , and decreases in laboratory supply , equipment , facility and other costs resulting from a restructuring and related workforce reductions implemented in october 2009. salaries and related personnel costs for the year ended december 31 , 2009 included a charge of $ 905,000 in connection with these workforce reductions . general and administrative expenses general and administrative expenses decreased to $ 6.5 million in 2010 , including $ 984,000 in stock-based compensation , from $ 10.3 million in 2009 , including $ 1.3 million in stock-based compensation . the decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to $ 2.3 million in decreased salaries , related personnel costs and other costs resulting from our october 2009 restructuring and $ 1.6 million in decreased external service costs . story_separator_special_tag operating assets and liabilities , including changes in deferred revenue , accounts payable and accrued expenses , and a non-cash charge resulting from termination of our swedish facility lease during 2011. deferred revenue decreased by $ 57,000 in 2011 compared to a decrease of $ 25.3 million in 2010. the decrease in deferred revenue in 2010 was primarily attributable to the conclusion of our collaboration with biovail in october 2010 and the recognition of all remaining revenue under this collaboration . accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by an aggregate of $ 248,000 in 2011 compared to an aggregate decrease of $ 3.1 million in 2010. our accounts payable and accrued expenses fluctuated significantly during these years primarily due to the timing of payments made and expenses incurred for external service costs related to our clinical trials . 45 the decrease in net cash used in operating activities in 2010 relative to 2009 was primarily due to net income of $ 15.1 million in 2010 compared to a net loss of $ 45.1 million in 2009 , as well as changes in operating assets and liabilities , including changes in deferred revenue , and accounts payable and accrued expenses . deferred revenue decreased by $ 25.3 million in 2010 compared to an increase in deferred revenue of $ 28.2 million in 2009. the decrease in deferred revenue in 2010 was primarily attributable to the recognition of $ 25.9 million in deferred revenue in connection with the conclusion of our collaboration with biovail in october 2010. the increase in deferred revenue in 2009 was primarily attributable to the $ 30 million non-refundable upfront payment received pursuant to our collaboration with biovail as well as initial licensing fees received from our collaboration with meiji seika pharma , offset by initial revenues recognized pursuant to these agreements . accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased by an aggregate of $ 3.1 million in 2010 compared to an aggregate decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $ 1.6 million in 2009. the decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses in 2010 was primarily due to payments made for external service costs related to our clinical trials , the timing and amount of which may fluctuate significantly from period to period . net cash provided by investing activities totaled $ 6.0 million in 2011 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $ 1.1 million in 2010 and net cash provided by investing activities of $ 9.4 million in 2009. net cash provided by or used in investing activities has fluctuated significantly from period to period primarily due to the timing of purchases and maturities of investment securities . the increase in net cash provided by investing activities in 2011 relative to the net cash used in investing activities in 2010 was primarily due to the maturities of investment securities exceeding purchases of investment securities . the increase in net cash used in investing activities in 2010 relative to net cash provided by investing activities in 2009 was primarily due to increased purchases of investment securities , net of maturities of investment securities . net cash provided by financing activities increased to $ 13.9 million in 2011 compared to $ 470,000 in 2010 and $ 1.2 million in 2009. the increase in net cash provided by financing activities during 2011 was primarily due to $ 13.9 million in net proceeds received from our january 2011 private equity financing . the decrease in net cash provided by financing activities in 2010 relative to 2009 was primarily attributable to reduced proceeds from the issuance of stock offset by decreased repayments of long-term debt . the following table summarizes our contractual obligations , including interest , at december 31 , 2011 ( in thousands ) : replace_table_token_5_th in april 2011 , we entered into a termination agreement related to the lease for our swedish research facility and ceased operations at this site . the lease was entered into in june 2005 and had a 10-year term . pursuant to this agreement , we made a one-time payment of $ 690,000 and issued 782,339 shares of our common stock to the landlord in settlement of all lease-related obligations . general and administrative expenses for the year ended december 31 , 2011 included a net charge of $ 1.1 million , which amount consisted of $ 1.7 million in lease termination charges offset by a $ 539,000 reduction in the cumulative translation adjustment balance related to the liquidation of substantially all assets of our swedish subsidiary . we have also entered into agreements with contract research organizations and other external service providers for services in connection with the development of our product candidates . we were contractually obligated for up to approximately $ 6.3 million of future services under these agreements as of december 31 , 2011. the nature of the work being conducted under our agreements with contract research organizations is such that , in most cases , the services may be stopped on short notice . in such event , we would not be liable
liquidity and capital resources since inception , we have funded our operations primarily through sales of our equity securities , payments received under our collaboration agreements , debt financings , and interest income . as of december 31 , 2011 , we had received $ 341.6 million in net proceeds from sales of our equity securities , including $ 6.9 million in debt we had retired through the issuance of our common stock , $ 112.5 million in payments from collaboration agreements , $ 22.4 million in debt financing , and $ 22.2 million in interest income . at december 31 , 2011 , we had $ 31.0 million in cash , cash equivalents and investment securities compared to $ 37.1 million at december 31 , 2010. we expect that our current cash , cash equivalents and investment securities , together with anticipated payments from our existing collaborations , will be sufficient to fund our operations at least into the second quarter of 2013. we will require significant additional financing in the future to fund our operations . our future capital requirements will depend on , and could increase significantly as a result of , many factors , including : progress in , and the costs of , our clinical trials , preclinical studies and other research and development programs ; the scope , prioritization and number of research and development programs ; 44 the ability of our collaborators and us to reach the milestones , or other events or developments , under our collaboration agreements ; the extent to which we are obligated to reimburse our collaborators or our collaborators

given the substantial improvement in the outlook for the labor market since the inception of the fomc 's current asset purchase program , and the sufficient underlying strength it sees in the broader economy , the fomc decided to conclude its asset purchase program . the fomc will continue its existing policy of reinvesting principal payments from its holdings of agency debt and agency mbs in agency mbs , and rolling over maturing treasury securities at auction . the fomc reaffirmed its view that the current 0 % to 0.25 % target range for the federal funds rate remains appropriate and that it will likely be so for a considerable time following the end of the asset purchase program , especially if projected inflation continues to run below the fomc 's 2 % longer-run goal . if incoming information indicates faster progress toward the fomc 's employment and inflation objectives , then increases in the federal funds target range are likely to occur sooner than currently anticipated . 40 conversely , if progress is restricted more than expected , then increases in the federal funds target range are likely to occur later than currently anticipated . even after employment and inflation are near mandate-consistent levels , economic conditions may , for some time , warrant keeping the target federal funds rate below levels the fomc views as normal in the long run . when the fomc decides to begin to remove policy accommodation , they stated they will take a balanced approach consistent with their longer-run goals of maximum employment and inflation of 2 % . economic conditions in the bank 's local market areas have a significant impact on the ability of borrowers to repay loans and the value of the collateral securing these loans . the industries in our market areas are very diversified , specifically in the kansas city metropolitan statistical area which comprises the largest segment of our loan portfolio and deposit base . as of october 2014 , the unemployment rate was 4.4 % for kansas and 5.9 % for missouri , compared to the national average of 5.8 % based on information from the bureau of economic analysis . the kansas city market area has an average household income of approximately $ 74 thousand per annum , based on 2014 estimates from the american community survey , which is a statistical survey by the u.s. census bureau . the average household income in our combined market areas is approximately $ 69 thousand per annum , with 90 % of the population at or above the poverty level , also based on the 2014 estimates from the american community survey . the fhfa price index for kansas and missouri has not experienced significant fluctuations during the past 10 years , unlike other market areas of the united states , which indicates relative stability in property values in our local market areas . the structure of the bank 's retail branches is currently undergoing a transformation as more customers utilize electronic and other remote channels to conduct business . the physical footprint of the branch is being reduced . the last branch opened by the bank occupies approximately 2,100 square feet and we anticipate that future retail branches will be even smaller , operating with three to five retail staff members . the interior layout of the branch also will transform , with future or remodeled branches designed without a teller counter and designed for more consultative interactions with less emphasis on transaction processing . to support this operating concept , the bank has fully implemented a new branch staffing model that eliminates our traditional teller role , blending transaction processing and account servicing functions under customer service associates and customer service representatives . the expanded skill set of branch staff provides branch managers greater flexibility to manage customer flows within the branches . also , the branch management ranks have been pared , with 32 of our 47 branches now operating under a manager responsible for either two or three offices . currently , any future branch management reductions are expected to result from retirements and attrition . management continues to monitor the role and functions of the branch staff and will adjust the branch management and overall branch staffing structure as necessary to achieve the bank 's targets for deposit and loan production . since 2010 , the bank has reduced retail branch staff by 24 full-time equivalent positions while adding four new branch locations . additionally , lending staff have been deployed from regionally centralized locations to the branch network . by utilizing paperless electronic document technology , the bank can better utilize staff resources regardless of their physical location . this promotes a more efficient loan process which benefits the customer and the loan operation . having loan staff located in the branch network also provides them with more frequent opportunities to interact with customers and cross-sell additional products and services . during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014 , the bank implemented the daily leverage strategy to increase earnings . the daily leverage strategy currently involves borrowing up to $ 2.10 billion on the bank 's fhlb line of credit in two leverage tiers . the first tier of $ 800.0 million is intended to remain borrowed on the fhlb line of credit for an extended period of time . the second tier of $ 1.30 billion is borrowed at the beginning of each quarter and paid off prior to each quarter end . the proceeds of the borrowings , net of the required fhlb stock holdings , are deposited at the federal reserve bank of kansas city . the daily leverage strategy was fully implemented beginning on august

provide returns to stockholders is through our dividend payments . total dividends declared and paid during fiscal year 2014 were $ 138.2 million . the company 's cash dividend payout policy is reviewed quarterly by management and the board of directors , and the ability to pay dividends under the policy depends upon a number of factors , including the company 's financial condition and results of operations , regulatory capital requirements , regulatory limitations on the bank 's ability to make capital distributions to the company , and the amount of cash at the holding company level . it is the intent of the board of directors to continue to pay regular quarterly and special cash dividends each year , and for fiscal year 2015 , it is the intent of the board of directors and management to continue with the payout of 100 % of the company 's earnings to its stockholders . another way we have provided returns to stockholders is through our share repurchase programs . during fiscal year 2014 , the company repurchased 6,947,065 shares of common stock at an average price of $ 11.98 per share , or $ 83.2 million . interest rate risk management . changes in interest rates are our primary market risk as our balance sheet is almost entirely comprised of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities . as such , fluctuations in interest rates have a significant impact not only upon our net income but also upon the cash flows related to those assets and liabilities and the market value of our assets and liabilities . in order to maintain what we believe to be acceptable levels of net interest income in varying interest rate environments , we actively manage our interest rate risk and assume a moderate amount of interest rate risk consistent with board policies . 45 financial condition assets . total assets were $ 9.87 billion at september 30 , 2014 compared to $ 9.19 billion at september 30 , 2013. the $ 678.6 million increase was due primarily to

capital resources liquidity refers to our ability to generate sufficient cash to fund ongoing operations , to repay maturing certificates of deposit and other deposit withdrawals , to repay maturing borrowings , and to fund loan commitments . liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of our business management . the company 's most available liquid assets are represented by cash and cash equivalents , afs securities , and short-term investment securities . the bank 's primary sources of funds are deposits , fhlb borrowings , repurchase agreements , repayments and maturities of outstanding loans and mbs and other short-term investments , and funds provided by operations . the bank 's term borrowings primarily have been used to invest in debentures and mbs in an effort to manage the bank 's interest rate risk with the intent to improve the earnings of the bank while maintaining capital ratios in excess of regulatory standards for well-capitalized financial institutions . in addition , the bank 's focus on managing risk has provided additional liquidity capacity by maintaining a balance of mbs and investment securities available as collateral for borrowings . we generally intend to maintain cash reserves sufficient to meet short-term liquidity needs , which are routinely forecasted for 10 , 30 , and 365 days . additionally , on a monthly basis , we perform a liquidity stress test in accordance with the interagency policy statement on funding and liquidity risk management . the liquidity stress test incorporates both short-term and long-term liquidity scenarios in order to identify and to quantify liquidity risk . management also continuously monitors key liquidity statistics related to items such as wholesale funding gaps , borrowings capacity , and available unpledged collateral , along with various liquidity ratios in an effort to further mitigate liquidity risk . in the event short-term liquidity needs exceed available cash , the bank has access to a line of credit at the fhlb and the federal reserve bank discount window . additionally , all or a portion of the borrowings against the fhlb line of credit in conjunction with the daily leverage strategy could be repaid at any point in time , if necessary . ``` Suspicious Activity Report : given the substantial improvement in the outlook for the labor market since the inception of the fomc 's current asset purchase program , and the sufficient underlying strength it sees in the broader economy , the fomc decided to conclude its asset purchase program . the fomc will continue its existing policy of reinvesting principal payments from its holdings of agency debt and agency mbs in agency mbs , and rolling over maturing treasury securities at auction . the fomc reaffirmed its view that the current 0 % to 0.25 % target range for the federal funds rate remains appropriate and that it will likely be so for a considerable time following the end of the asset purchase program , especially if projected inflation continues to run below the fomc 's 2 % longer-run goal . if incoming information indicates faster progress toward the fomc 's employment and inflation objectives , then increases in the federal funds target range are likely to occur sooner than currently anticipated . 40 conversely , if progress is restricted more than expected , then increases in the federal funds target range are likely to occur later than currently anticipated . even after employment and inflation are near mandate-consistent levels , economic conditions may , for some time , warrant keeping the target federal funds rate below levels the fomc views as normal in the long run . when the fomc decides to begin to remove policy accommodation , they stated they will take a balanced approach consistent with their longer-run goals of maximum employment and inflation of 2 % . economic conditions in the bank 's local market areas have a significant impact on the ability of borrowers to repay loans and the value of the collateral securing these loans . the industries in our market areas are very diversified , specifically in the kansas city metropolitan statistical area which comprises the largest segment of our loan portfolio and deposit base . as of october 2014 , the unemployment rate was 4.4 % for kansas and 5.9 % for missouri , compared to the national average of 5.8 % based on information from the bureau of economic analysis . the kansas city market area has an average household income of approximately $ 74 thousand per annum , based on 2014 estimates from the american community survey , which is a statistical survey by the u.s. census bureau . the average household income in our combined market areas is approximately $ 69 thousand per annum , with 90 % of the population at or above the poverty level , also based on the 2014 estimates from the american community survey . the fhfa price index for kansas and missouri has not experienced significant fluctuations during the past 10 years , unlike other market areas of the united states , which indicates relative stability in property values in our local market areas . the structure of the bank 's retail branches is currently undergoing a transformation as more customers utilize electronic and other remote channels to conduct business . the physical footprint of the branch is being reduced . the last branch opened by the bank occupies approximately 2,100 square feet and we anticipate that future retail branches will be even smaller , operating with three to five retail staff members . the interior layout of the branch also will transform , with future or remodeled branches designed without a teller counter and designed for more consultative interactions with less emphasis on transaction processing . to support this operating concept , the bank has fully implemented a new branch staffing model that eliminates our traditional teller role , blending transaction processing and account servicing functions under customer service associates and customer service representatives . the expanded skill set of branch staff provides branch managers greater flexibility to manage customer flows within the branches . also , the branch management ranks have been pared , with 32 of our 47 branches now operating under a manager responsible for either two or three offices . currently , any future branch management reductions are expected to result from retirements and attrition . management continues to monitor the role and functions of the branch staff and will adjust the branch management and overall branch staffing structure as necessary to achieve the bank 's targets for deposit and loan production . since 2010 , the bank has reduced retail branch staff by 24 full-time equivalent positions while adding four new branch locations . additionally , lending staff have been deployed from regionally centralized locations to the branch network . by utilizing paperless electronic document technology , the bank can better utilize staff resources regardless of their physical location . this promotes a more efficient loan process which benefits the customer and the loan operation . having loan staff located in the branch network also provides them with more frequent opportunities to interact with customers and cross-sell additional products and services . during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014 , the bank implemented the daily leverage strategy to increase earnings . the daily leverage strategy currently involves borrowing up to $ 2.10 billion on the bank 's fhlb line of credit in two leverage tiers . the first tier of $ 800.0 million is intended to remain borrowed on the fhlb line of credit for an extended period of time . the second tier of $ 1.30 billion is borrowed at the beginning of each quarter and paid off prior to each quarter end . the proceeds of the borrowings , net of the required fhlb stock holdings , are deposited at the federal reserve bank of kansas city . the daily leverage strategy was fully implemented beginning on august 1 , 2014 and increased fiscal year 2014 net income by $ 501 thousand . the daily leverage strategy has had minimal impact on the bank 's interest rate risk and liquidity . story_separator_special_tag the end result of these activities has been a capital ratio in excess of the

although the company 's management has used available information to make judgments on the appropriate estimates to account for the above matters , there can be no assurance that future events will not significantly affect the estimated amounts related to these areas where estimates are required . however , historically , actual results have not been materially different than original estimates : revenue recognition . the company recognizes revenue from the sales of its products when ownership transfers to the customers , which occurs either at the time of shipment or upon delivery based upon contractual terms with the customer . the company recognizes customer program costs , including rebates , cooperative advertising , slotting fees and other sales related discounts , as a reduction to sales . allowance for doubtful accounts . the company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon a review of outstanding accounts receivable , historical collection information and existing economic conditions . the allowance for doubtful accounts represents estimated uncollectible accounts receivables associated with potential customer defaults on contractual obligations , usually due to potential insolvencies . the allowance includes amounts for certain customers where a risk of default has been specifically identified . in addition , the allowance includes a provision for customer defaults based on historical experience . the company actively monitors its accounts receivable balances and its historical experience of annual accounts receivable write offs has been negligible . customer rebates . customer rebates and incentives are a common practice in the office products industry . we incur customer rebate costs to obtain favorable product placement , to promote sell-through of products and to maintain competitive pricing . customer rebate costs and incentives , including volume rebates , promotional funds , catalog allowances and slotting fees , are accounted for as a reduction to gross sales . these costs are recorded at the time of sale and are based on individual customer contracts . management periodically reviews accruals for these rebates and allowances , and adjusts accruals when appropriate . obsolete and slow moving inventory . inventories are stated at the lower of cost , determined on the first-in , first-out method , or market . an allowance is established to adjust the cost of inventory to its net realizable value . inventory allowances are recorded for obsolete or slow moving inventory based on assumptions about future demand and marketability of products , the impact of new product introductions and specific identification of items , such as discontinued products . these estimates could vary significantly from actual requirements if future economic conditions , customer inventory levels or competitive conditions differ from expectations . income taxes . deferred income tax liabilities or assets are established for temporary differences between financial and tax reporting bases and are subsequently adjusted to reflect changes in tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse . a valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized . 13 intangible assets . intangible assets with finite useful lives are recorded at cost upon acquisition and amortized over the term of the related contract , if any , or useful life , as applicable . intangible assets held by the company with finite useful lives include patents and trademarks . the weighted average amortization period for intangible assets at december 31 , 2011 was 14 years . the company periodically reviews the values recorded for intangible assets to assess recoverability from future operations whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable . at december 31 , 2011 and 2010 , the company assessed the recoverability of its long-lived assets and believed that there were no events or circumstances present that would that would require a test of recoverability on those assets . as a result , there was no impairment of the carrying amounts of such assets and no reduction in their estimated useful lives . the net book value of the company 's intangible assets increased to $ 3,284,663 as of december 31 , 2011 , from $ 1,866,231 as of december 31 , 2010 primarily as a result of the pac-kit acquisition . refer to note 17 โ€“ business combinations - in the notes to consolidated financial statements in this report for a more detailed discussion . pension obligation . the pension benefit obligation is based on various assumptions used by third-party actuaries in calculating this amount . these assumptions include discount rates , expected return on plan assets , mortality rates and other factors . revisions in assumptions and actual results that differ from the assumptions affect future expenses , cash funding requirements and obligations . our funding policy is to fund the plan in accordance with applicable requirements of the internal revenue code and regulations . these assumptions are reviewed annually and updated as required . the company has a frozen defined benefit pension plan . two assumptions , the discount rate and the expected return on plan assets , are important elements of expense and liability measurement . we determine the discount rate used to measure plan liabilities as of the december 31 measurement date . the discount rate reflects the current rate at which the associated liabilities could be effectively settled at the end of the year . in estimating this rate , we look at rates of return on fixed-income investments of similar duration to the liabilities in the plan that receive high , investment grade ratings by recognized ratings agencies . story_separator_special_tag using these methodologies , we determined a discount rate of 3.99 % to be appropriate as of december 31 , 2011 , which is a decrease of 0.43 percentage points from the rate used as of december 31 , 2010. an increase of 1.0 % in the discount rate would have decreased our plan liabilities as of december 31 , 2011 by $ 0.1 million . the expected long-term rate of return on assets considers the company 's historical results and projected returns for similar allocations among asset classes . in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles , actual results that differ from the company 's assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods and , therefore , affect expense and obligation in future periods . for the u.s. pension plan , our assumption for the expected return on plan assets was 8.25 % for 2011. for more information concerning these costs and obligations , see the discussion in note 6 โ€“ pension and profit sharing , in the notes to the company 's consolidated financial statements . accounting for stock-based compensation . stock based compensation cost is measured at the grant date fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period . the company uses the black-scholes option - pricing model to determine fair value of the awards , which involves certain subjective assumptions . these assumptions include estimating the length of time employees will retain their vested stock options before exercising them ( โ€œ expected term โ€ ) , the estimated volatility of the company 's common stock price over the expected term ( โ€œ volatility โ€ ) and the number of options for which vesting requirements will not be completed ( โ€œ forfeitures โ€ ) . changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect estimates of fair value stock-based compensation , and the related amount recognized on the consolidated statements of operations . refer to note 11 - stock option plans - in the notes to consolidated financial statements in this report for a more detailed discussion . results of operations 2011 compared with 2010 on february 28 , 2011 , the company purchased substantially all of the assets of the pac-kit safety equipment company , a leading manufacturer of first aid kits for the industrial , safety , transportation and marine markets . the company purchased the accounts receivable , inventory , equipment and intangible assets of pac-kit for approximately $ 3.4 million using funds borrowed under its revolving loan agreement with wells fargo . the pac-kit line of products consist of high quality , unitized first aid kits sold to a broad range of customers and distributors . 14 the company recorded approximately $ 1.9 million for assets acquired including accounts receivable , inventory and fixed assets , as well as approximately $ 1.5 million for intangible assets , consisting of customer relationships and the pac-kit trade name . in 2011 , the company incurred approximately $ 125,000 of integration and transaction costs associated with the acquisition . these costs were recorded in selling , general and administrative expenses . net sales in 2011 , sales increased by $ 10,152,931 or 16 % ( 14 % in constant currency ) to $ 73,301,864 compared to $ 63,148,933 in 2010. the u.s. segment sales increased by $ 9,480,000 or 20 % in 2011 compared to 2010. sales in canada increased by $ 794,000 or 10 % ( 5 % in local currency ) in 2011 compared to 2010. european sales decreased by $ 120,000 or 2 % in u.s. dollars ( 8 % in local currency ) in 2011 compared to 2010. the decline in european net sales is primarily related to the timing of shipments to mass market customers . the increase in net sales for the twelve months ended december 31 , 2011 in the u.s. segment was primarily due to the additional sales resulting from the acquisition of the pac-kit company of approximately $ 5.2 million , strong sales of first aid products and market share gains in the mass market channel . the increase in net sales in canada for the twelve months ended december 31 , 2011 was primarily due to the introduction of new products including the company 's new line of airshoc lawn and garden tools , sold to a major retail hardware chain . gross profit gross profit was 36 % of net sales in 2011 compared to 37 % in 2010. the anticipated decline in gross profit as a percentage of sales for 2011 was primarily related to the addition of the pac-kit line of products , which in general , yield a lower gross profit than the company 's historical average gross margins . the sales of pac-kit products reduced the overall gross profit percentage by approximately 80 basis points . selling , general and administrative selling , general and administrative expenses were $ 22,040,000 in 2011 compared with $ 20,385,000 in 2010 , an increase of $ 1,655,000 or 8 % . sg & a expenses were 30 % of net sales in 2011 compared to 32 % in 2010. the increase in sg & a expenses was primarily the result of incremental expenses from the addition of pac-kit , higher delivery costs and sales commissions as a result of higher sales as well as higher personnel related expenses . operating income operating income was $ 4,285,000 in 2011 , compared with $ 2,980,000 in 2010 , an increase of $ 1,305,000. operating income in the u.s. and canadian segments increased by approximately $ 825,000 and $ 117,000 , respectively , principally due to higher sales . the european operating loss declined by $ 363,000 principally due to cost cutting measures initiated in 2011 and improvement in the gross margin . interest expense , net net interest expense for 2011 was $ 255,000 , compared with $ 142,000 for 2010 , an increase of $ 113,000. the increase in

: replace_table_token_4_th during 2011 , total debt outstanding under the company 's revolving credit facility ( referred to below ) increased by approximately $ 4.0 million compared to total debt at december 31 , 2010. the increase in debt outstanding is primarily related to the financing of the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of the pac-kit company for $ 3.4 million . as of december 31 , 2011 , $ 17,568,484 was outstanding and $ 2,431,516 was available for borrowing under the revolving credit facility . ``` Suspicious Activity Report : although the company 's management has used available information to make judgments on the appropriate estimates to account for the above matters , there can be no assurance that future events will not significantly affect the estimated amounts related to these areas where estimates are required . however , historically , actual results have not been materially different than original estimates : revenue recognition . the company recognizes revenue from the sales of its products when ownership transfers to the customers , which occurs either at the time of shipment or upon delivery based upon contractual terms with the customer . the company recognizes customer program costs , including rebates , cooperative advertising , slotting fees and other sales related discounts , as a reduction to sales . allowance for doubtful accounts . the company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon a review of outstanding accounts receivable , historical collection information and existing economic conditions . the allowance for doubtful accounts represents estimated uncollectible accounts receivables associated with potential customer defaults on contractual obligations , usually due to potential insolvencies . the allowance includes amounts for certain customers where a risk of default has been specifically identified . in addition , the allowance includes a provision for customer defaults based on historical experience . the company actively monitors its accounts receivable balances and its historical experience of annual accounts receivable write offs has been negligible . customer rebates . customer rebates and incentives are a common practice in the office products industry . we incur customer rebate costs to obtain favorable product placement , to promote sell-through of products and to maintain competitive pricing . customer rebate costs and incentives , including volume rebates , promotional funds , catalog allowances and slotting fees , are accounted for as a reduction to gross sales . these costs are recorded at the time of sale and are based on individual customer contracts . management periodically reviews accruals for these rebates and allowances , and adjusts accruals when appropriate . obsolete and slow moving inventory . inventories are stated at the lower of cost , determined on the first-in , first-out method , or market . an allowance is established to adjust the cost of inventory to its net realizable value . inventory allowances are recorded for obsolete or slow moving inventory based on assumptions about future demand and marketability of products , the impact of new product introductions and specific identification of items , such as discontinued products . these estimates could vary significantly from actual requirements if future economic conditions , customer inventory levels or competitive conditions differ from expectations . income taxes . deferred income tax liabilities or assets are established for temporary differences between financial and tax reporting bases and are subsequently adjusted to reflect changes in tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse . a valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized . 13 intangible assets . intangible assets with finite useful lives are recorded at cost upon acquisition and amortized over the term of the related contract , if any , or useful life , as applicable . intangible assets held by the company with finite useful lives include patents and trademarks . the weighted average amortization period for intangible assets at december 31 , 2011 was 14 years . the company periodically reviews the values recorded for intangible assets to assess recoverability from future operations whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable . at december 31 , 2011 and 2010 , the company assessed the recoverability of its long-lived assets and believed that there were no events or circumstances present that would that would require a test of recoverability on those assets . as a result , there was no impairment of the carrying amounts of such assets and no reduction in their estimated useful lives . the net book value of the company 's intangible assets increased to $ 3,284,663 as of december 31 , 2011 , from $ 1,866,231 as of december 31 , 2010 primarily as a result of the pac-kit acquisition . refer to note 17 โ€“ business combinations - in the notes to consolidated financial statements in this report for a more detailed discussion . pension obligation . the pension benefit obligation is based on various assumptions used by third-party actuaries in calculating this amount . these assumptions include discount rates , expected return on plan assets , mortality rates and other factors . revisions in assumptions and actual results that differ from the assumptions affect future expenses , cash funding requirements and obligations . our funding policy is to fund the plan in accordance with applicable requirements of the internal revenue code and regulations . these assumptions are reviewed annually and updated as required . the company has a frozen defined benefit pension plan . two assumptions , the discount rate and the expected return on plan assets , are important elements of expense and liability measurement . we determine the discount rate used to measure plan liabilities as of the december 31 measurement date . the discount rate reflects the current rate at which the associated liabilities could be effectively settled at the end of the year . in estimating this rate , we look at rates of return on fixed-income investments of similar duration to the liabilities in the plan that receive high , investment grade ratings by recognized ratings agencies . story_separator_special_tag using these methodologies , we determined a discount rate of 3.99 % to be appropriate as of december 31 , 2011 , which is a decrease of 0.43 percentage points from the rate used as of december 31 , 2010. an increase of 1.0 % in the discount rate would have decreased our plan liabilities as of december 31 , 2011 by $ 0.1 million . the expected long-term rate of return on assets considers the company 's historical results and projected returns for similar allocations among asset classes . in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles , actual results that differ from the company 's assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods and , therefore , affect expense and obligation in future periods . for the u.s. pension plan , our assumption for the expected return on plan assets was 8.25 % for 2011. for more information concerning these costs and obligations , see the discussion in note 6 โ€“ pension and profit sharing , in the notes to the company 's consolidated financial statements . accounting for stock-based compensation . stock based compensation cost is measured at the grant date fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period . the company uses the black-scholes option - pricing model to determine fair value of the awards , which involves certain subjective assumptions . these assumptions include estimating the length of time employees will retain their vested stock options before exercising them ( โ€œ expected term โ€ ) , the estimated volatility of the company 's common stock price over the expected term ( โ€œ volatility โ€ ) and the number of options for which vesting requirements will not be completed ( โ€œ forfeitures โ€ ) . changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect estimates of fair value stock-based compensation , and the related amount recognized on the consolidated statements of operations . refer to note 11 - stock option plans - in the notes to consolidated financial statements in this report for a more detailed discussion . results of operations 2011 compared with 2010 on february 28 , 2011 , the company purchased substantially all of the assets of the pac-kit safety equipment company , a leading manufacturer of first aid kits for the industrial , safety , transportation and marine markets . the company purchased the accounts receivable , inventory , equipment and intangible assets of pac-kit for approximately $ 3.4 million using funds borrowed under its revolving loan agreement with wells fargo . the pac-kit line of products consist of high quality , unitized first aid kits sold to a broad range of customers and distributors . 14 the company recorded approximately $ 1.9 million for assets acquired including accounts receivable , inventory and fixed assets , as well as approximately $ 1.5 million for intangible assets , consisting of customer relationships and the pac-kit trade name . in 2011 , the company incurred approximately $ 125,000 of integration and transaction costs associated with the acquisition . these costs were recorded in selling , general and administrative expenses . net sales in 2011 , sales increased by $ 10,152,931 or 16 % ( 14 % in constant currency ) to $ 73,301,864 compared to $ 63,148,933 in 2010. the u.s. segment sales increased by $ 9,480,000 or 20 % in 2011 compared to 2010. sales in canada increased by $ 794,000 or 10 % ( 5 % in local currency ) in 2011 compared to 2010. european sales decreased by $ 120,000 or 2 % in u.s. dollars ( 8 % in local currency ) in 2011 compared to 2010. the decline in european net sales is primarily related to the timing of shipments to mass market customers . the increase in net sales for the twelve months ended december 31 , 2011 in the u.s. segment was primarily due to the additional sales resulting from the acquisition of the pac-kit company of approximately $ 5.2 million , strong sales of first aid products and market share gains in the mass market channel . the increase in net sales in canada for the twelve months ended december 31 , 2011 was primarily due to the introduction of new products including the company 's new line of airshoc lawn and garden tools , sold to a major retail hardware chain . gross profit gross profit was 36 % of net sales in 2011 compared to 37 % in 2010. the anticipated decline in gross profit as a percentage of sales for 2011 was primarily related to the addition of the pac-kit line of products , which in general , yield a lower gross profit than the company 's historical average gross margins . the sales of pac-kit products reduced the overall gross profit percentage by approximately 80 basis points . selling , general and administrative selling , general and administrative expenses were $ 22,040,000 in 2011 compared with $ 20,385,000 in 2010 , an increase of $ 1,655,000 or 8 % . sg & a expenses were 30 % of net sales in 2011 compared to 32 % in 2010. the increase in sg & a expenses was primarily the result of incremental expenses from the addition of pac-kit , higher delivery costs and sales commissions as a result of higher sales as well as higher personnel related expenses . operating income operating income was $ 4,285,000 in 2011 , compared with $ 2,980,000 in 2010 , an increase of $ 1,305,000. operating income in the u.s. and canadian segments increased by approximately $ 825,000 and $ 117,000 , respectively , principally due to higher sales . the european operating loss declined by $ 363,000 principally due to cost cutting measures initiated in 2011 and improvement in the gross margin . interest expense , net net interest expense for 2011 was $ 255,000 , compared with $ 142,000 for 2010 , an increase of $ 113,000. the increase in

during the recovery and growth phases of the lodging cycle , our strategy emphasizes external growth objectives oriented toward active investment in hotels that are additive to the quality of our portfolio , that have attractive growth potential and that may benefit from our asset management competencies . we endeavor to structure our acquisitions in a way that will not only increase the value of our common shares , but also will advance our other corporate objectives , such as improving our financial flexibility and reducing our leverage . during periods of cyclical decline , our strategy may emphasize opportunistically investing in distressed assets and the repurchase of our equity or debt securities . ยท measured balance sheet improvement : our financial objectives include the measured improvement of our credit ratios , improved disclosures , maintenance of appropriate levels of liquidity , and a gradual reduction in our financial leverage . our financial objectives are integral to our overall corporate strategy , and accordingly we have developed our financial objectives in conjunction with our internal and external growth objectives . the lodging industry is economically sensitive . therefore , our financial objectives are aimed at reducing the potentially negative impact of combining high operating leverage with high financial leverage , while preserving access to multiple capital sources and minimizing our weighted-average cost of capital . we seek to capitalize our acquisitions in a way that will advance our financial objectives . for example , as reducing our financial leverage is a key objective , we expect to fund our acquisitions with a greater proportion of equity capital than debt capital . during the mature phase of the lodging cycle , our financial objectives may include liquidity improvement , which may be accomplished through selective hotel dispositions . during 2010 and continuing into 2011 , we witnessed improving business and consumer sentiment , which resulted in improved hotel revenues and profits . accordingly , we believe we are currently in the early stages of a recovery phase of the lodging cycle , during which hotels acquired are likely to benefit from a multi-year recovery in hotel profitability , and are likely to create long-term value in excess of our investment hurdles . accordingly , we deployed a portion of our excess cash balance during 2011 towards selective acquisitions . these selective acquisitions included : the purchase of the outside 62.0 % equity interests in our doubletree guest suites times square joint venture for $ 37.5 million in cash and the assumption of $ 270.0 million in non-recourse senior mortgage and mezzanine debt ; the purchase of the outside 50.0 % equity interest in our buyefficient joint venture for $ 9.0 million in cash ; the purchase of the jw marriott new orleans for approximately $ 51.6 million in cash and the assumption of $ 42.2 million in debt ; and the purchase of a 75.0 % majority interest in a joint venture that owns the hilton san diego bayfront for approximately $ 182.8 million . concurrent with the hilton san diego bayfront acquisition , the joint venture entered into a new $ 240.0 million mortgage financing secured by the hotel . our acquisition program is aimed at generating attractive risk-adjusted returns on our investment dollars , and therefore we may target lodging assets outside of the typical branded , urban , upper upscale profile represented by our existing portfolio in order to capitalize on opportunities which may arise . we intend to select the brands and operators for our hotels that we believe will lead to the highest returns . additionally , the scope of our acquisitions program may include large hotel portfolios or hotel loans . in general , future acquisitions may be funded by our issuance of additional debt or equity securities , including our common and preferred op units , or by draws on our $ 150.0 million senior corporate credit facility entered into in november 2010. however , in light of our current financial objectives , we expect to fund any near term acquisitions with a greater proportion of equity capital than debt capital . we have disposed , and will continue to dispose , of assets that we believe will not offer long-term returns in excess of our cost of capital , or that have a high risk profile relative to their anticipated return expectations . in april 2011 , we completed the sale of the royal palm miami beach for a gross sales price of $ 130.0 million , including $ 40.0 million in cash and a $ 90.0 million mortgage-secured purchase money loan ( the ย“royal palm noteย” ) to the buyer , and recognized a gain on the sale of $ 14.0 million . we sold the royal palm note in october 2011 and received net proceeds of approximately $ 79.2 million . in anticipation of this sale , we recorded an impairment loss of $ 10.9 million in september 2011. we retained an earn-out right on the royal palm hotel which will enable the company to receive future payments of up to $ 20.0 million in the event that the hotel achieves certain return hurdles . in october 2011 , we completed the sale of the valley river inn located in eugene , oregon for a gross sales price of $ 16.4 million , including the assumption of the existing mortgage secured by the hotel which totaled $ 11.5 million at the date of sale , and recognized a gain on the sale of $ 0.9 million . story_separator_special_tag which were deeded back to the lender in november 2010 pursuant to our 2009 secured debt restructuring program ; and the marriott ontario airport , which was sold by the receiver in august 2010 pursuant to our 2009 secured debt restructuring program . income from discontinued operations for the year ended december 31 , 2010 also includes the gain on extinguishment of debt pursuant to our 2009 secured debt restructuring program for the renaissance westchester , which was deeded back to the lender and reacquired by us in june 2010 , the w san diego , which was deeded back to the lender in july 2010 , and the marriott ontario airport , which was sold by the receiver in august 2010. these amounts can be found in our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this annual report on form 10-k. replace_table_token_4_th 34 the following table presents our operating results for our total portfolio for 2010 and 2009 , including the amount and percentage change in the results between the two periods . the table presents the results of operations included in the consolidated statements of operations , and includes the 29 hotels ( 11,056 rooms ) as of december 31 , 2010 and 2009. income from discontinued operations for the year ended december 31 , 2010 includes the results of operations for the following : royal palm miami beach , which was sold in april 2011 ;

( see โ€œ factors that may affect our performance . โ€ ) critical accounting policies the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto , which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states of america . the preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements . on an ongoing basis , we evaluate our estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various factors and circumstances . we believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances . however , actual results may differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions that could have a material effect on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods . securities . currently , we classify securities as either trading , available-for-sale or held-to-maturity . trading securities are those securities for which we have elected fair value accounting . trading securities are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings each period . securities available-for-sale are reported at estimated fair value , with unrealized gains and losses , net of the related tax effects , excluded from operations and reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss . the fair values of securities traded in active markets are obtained from market quotes . if quoted prices in active markets are not available , we determine the fair values by utilizing industry-standard tools to calculate the net present value of the expected cash flows available to the securities from the underlying mortgage assets . to determine the performance of the underlying mortgage loan pools , we consider where appropriate borrower prepayments , defaults , and loss severities based on a number of macroeconomic factors , including housing price changes , unemployment rates , interest rates and borrower attributes such as credit score and loan documentation at the time of origination . we input for each security our projections of monthly default rates , loss severity rates and voluntary prepayment rates for the underlying mortgages for the remaining life of the security to determine the expected cash flows . the projections of default rates are derived by the company from the historic default rate observed in the pool of loans collateralizing the security , increased by ( or decreased by ) the forecasted increase or decrease in the national unemployment rate . the projections of loss severity rates are derived by the company from the historic loss severity rate observed in the pool of loans , increased by ( or decreased by ) the forecasted decrease or increase in the national home price appreciation ( hpa ) index . to determine the discount rates used to compute the present value of the expected cash flows for these non-agency mbs securities , we separate the securities by the borrower characteristics in the underlying pool . for example , non-agency rmbs โ€œ prime โ€ securities generally have borrowers with higher fico scores and better documentation of income . โ€œ alt-a โ€ securities generally have borrowers with lower fico and less documentation of income . โ€œ pay-option arms โ€ are alt-a securities 27 with borrowers that tend to pay the least amount of principal ( or increase their loan balance through negative amortization ) . separate discount rates are calculated for prime , alt-a and pay-option arm non-agency mbs securities using market-participant assumptions for risk , capital and return on equity . securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and recorded at amortized cost . amortization of purchase premiums and accretion of discounts on securities are recorded as yield adjustments on such securities using the effective interest method . the specific identification method is used for purposes of determining cost in computing realized gains and losses on investment securities sold . at each reporting date , we monitor our available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities for other-than-temporary impairment . the company measures its debt securities in an unrealized loss position at the end of the reporting period for other-than-temporary impairment by comparing the present value of the cash flows currently expected to be collected from the security with its amortized cost basis . if the calculated present value is lower than the amortized cost , the difference is the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of its debt securities . the excess of the present value over the fair value of the security ( if any ) is the noncredit component of the impairment , only if the company does not intend to sell the security and will not be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis . the credit component of the other-than-temporary-impairment is recorded as a loss in earnings and the noncredit component is recorded as a charge to other comprehensive income , net of the related income tax benefit . for non-agency rmbs we determine the cash flow expected to be collected and calculate the present value for purposes of testing for other-than-temporary impairment , by utilizing the same industry-standard tool and the same cash flows as those calculated for fair values ( discussed above ) . we compute cash flows based upon the underlying mortgage loan pools and our estimates of prepayments , defaults , and loss severities . we input our projections for the underlying mortgages for the remaining life of the security to determine the expected cash flows . story_separator_special_tag provision for loan losses was $ 5.8 million for the fiscal year ended june 30 , 2011 and $ 5.8 million

may differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions that could have a material effect on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods . securities . currently , we classify securities as either trading , available-for-sale or held-to-maturity . trading securities are those securities for which we have

value , with unrealized gains and losses , net of the related tax effects , excluded from operations and reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss . the fair values of securities traded in active markets are obtained from market quotes . if quoted prices in active markets are not available , we determine the fair values by utilizing industry-standard tools to calculate the net present value of the expected cash flows available to the securities from the underlying mortgage assets . to determine the performance of the underlying mortgage loan pools , we consider where appropriate borrower prepayments , defaults , and loss severities based on a number of macroeconomic factors , including housing price changes , unemployment rates , interest rates and borrower attributes such as credit score and loan documentation at the time of origination . we input for each security our projections of monthly default rates , loss severity rates and voluntary prepayment rates for the underlying mortgages for the remaining life of the security to determine the expected cash flows . the projections of default rates are derived by the company from the historic default rate observed in the pool of loans collateralizing the security , increased by ( or decreased by ) the forecasted increase or decrease in the national unemployment rate . the

our 2010 results reflect a $ 414 thousand one-time charge related to the demolition of our 149 room motor lodge in the fourth quarter of 2010. the quality of the rooms of the motor lodge was no longer consistent with the higher standards of our upgraded facilities . we converted the motor lodge to paved surface parking right next to the atlantis . the factors described above were the primary drivers of : ยท decreases of 2.5 % and 1.5 % in our casino and hotel revenues , respectively ; ยท increases of 4.8 % and 1.5 % in our food and beverage and other revenues , respectively ; ยท a 30.4 % decrease in income from operations ; ยท a decrease in our 2011 operating margin of 3.0 points or 29.7 % . capital spending and development we seek to continuously upgrade and maintain the atlantis facility in order to present a fresh , high quality product to our guests . in january 2009 , we completed the final phase of a multi-phase expansion project with the opening of the new spa atlantis featuring an atmosphere , amenities and treatments that are unique from any other offering in our market . additionally , many of the pre-expansion areas of the atlantis were remodeled to be consistent with the upgraded look and feel of the new facilities . from inception of the project in 2007 through the completion date in january 2009 , the company incurred approximately $ 80 million related to these capital projects . with the opening of the skywalk the atlantis became the only hotel-casino to be physically connected to the reno-sparks convention center . the reno-sparks convention center offers approximately 500,000 square feet of leasable exhibition , meeting room , ballroom and lobby space . our capital expenditures were $ 17.4 million in 2011 , $ 6.8 million in 2010 , and $ 15.8 million in 2009. during 2009 capital expenditures primarily consisted of construction costs associated with the expansion , skybridge and redesign capital projects that commenced in june 2007. during 2009 we also spent approximately $ 5.2 million to acquire two additional land parcels with buildings within close proximity to the atlantis ( see additional discussion of these parcels below under ย“propertiesย” in item 2 ) . capital expenditures in 2010 and 2011 were for various general facility improvements and for purchase of additional gaming equipment at the atlantis . during 2011 , we also acquired a 1.5 acre land parcel in black hawk , colorado for $ 8.4 million and paid a $ 3.8 million deposit related to the acquisition of the riviera black hawk casino . the land parcel is contiguous to the riviera black hawk casino . on september 29 , 2011 monarch entered an agreement to purchase riviera black hawk , inc. ( see ย“the acquisitionย” below ) . future cash needed to finance ongoing capital expenditures , and close the acquisition transaction ( see ย“the acquisitionย” below ) , is expected to be available from operating cash flow , the credit facility ( see ย“the credit facilityย” below ) and , if necessary , additional borrowings . 25 critical accounting policies and estimates we prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states . certain of our policies , including the estimated useful lives assigned to our assets , the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts , self-insurance reserves , the calculation of income tax liabilities and the calculation of share-based compensation , require that we apply significant judgment in defining the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates . by their nature , these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty . our judgments are based on historical experience , terms of existing contracts , observation of trends in the industry , information provided by customers and information available from other outside sources , as appropriate . there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from our estimates . to provide an understanding of the methodologies applied , our significant accounting policies are discussed where appropriate in this discussion and analysis and in the notes to consolidated financial statements . the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of monarch , golden road , high desert , golden north , and monarch growth . intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated . allowance for doubtful accounts the company extends short-term credit to its gaming customers . such credit is non-interest bearing and is due on demand . in addition , the company also has receivables due from hotel guests which are primarily secured with a credit card at the time a customer checks in . an allowance for doubtful accounts is set up for all company receivables based upon the company 's historical collection and write-off experience , unless situations warrant a specific identification of a necessary reserve related to certain receivables . the company charges off its uncollectible receivables once all efforts have been made to collect such receivables . the book value of receivables approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the receivables . self-insurance reserves we are currently self-insured up to certain stop loss amounts for workers ' compensation and certain medical benefit costs provided to our employees . the company reviews self-insurance reserves at least quarterly . the reserve is determined by reviewing the actual expenditures for the previous twelve-month period and reports prepared by the third party plan administrator for any significant unpaid claims . the reserve is an amount estimated to pay both reported and unreported claims as of the balance sheet date . we believe changes in medical costs , trends in claims of our employee base , accident frequency and severity and other factors could materially affect the estimate for this reserve . story_separator_special_tag we may prepay borrowings under the new credit facility without penalty ( subject to certain charges applicable to the prepayment of libor borrowings prior to the end of the applicable interest period ) . amounts prepaid may be reborrowed so long as the total borrowings outstanding do not exceed the maximum principal available . we paid various one-time fees and other loan costs upon the closing of the refinancing of the new credit facility that are amortized over the facility 's term using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method . at december 31 , 2011 , we had $ 24.7 million outstanding under the new credit facility , none of which was classified as short-term debt . short-term debt represents the difference between the amount outstanding at december 31 , 2011 and the maximum principal allowed under the new credit facility on december 31 , 2012. the interest rate under our credit facility is libor , or a base rate ( as defined in the new credit facility agreement ) , plus an interest rate margin ranging from 1.25 % to 2.50 % depending on our leverage ratio . the interest rate is adjusted quarterly based on our leverage ratio calculated using operating results over the previous four quarters and borrowings at the end of the most recent quarter . at december 31 , 2011 pricing was set at the opening pricing point of libor plus 2.250 % and will be 32 adjusted in subsequent quarters in accordance with our leverage ratio . at december 31 , 2011 , the one-month libor rate was 0.29 % . the acquisition on september 29 , 2011 , monarch entered into a definitive stock purchase agreement ( the ย“agreementย” ) with riviera operating corporation , a

will leave at least $ 2.1 million of net working capital comprised of at least $ 2.1 million of cash . the closing of the transaction contemplated by the agreement ( the ย“closing ) is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions , including , without limitation , ( i ) the approval of the transaction by the colorado limited gaming commission , ( ii ) the issuance of required licenses to monarch , and certain monarch management , from the colorado gaming commission , ( iii ) the absence of the occurrence of a material adverse effect on riviera black hawk between the date of the agreement and the closing of the transaction ( iv ) the receipt of certain consents , approvals or authorizations required to consummate the transaction contemplated by the agreement and other licenses and permits required to operate riviera black hawk , ( v ) certain materiality exceptions , the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by monarch and seller , respectively , ( vi ) compliance with the parties respective obligations under the agreement , ( vii ) the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the hart-scott-rodino antitrust improvements act of 1976 , as amended and ( viii ) other customary closing conditions . the transaction is not subject to a financing or due diligence condition . in accordance with the agreement , monarch made a non-refundable ( except under certain conditions ) deposit of $ 3.8 million ( the ย“depositย” ) which will be credited against the purchase price upon the closing . upon closing , monarch is also obligated to pay a $ 1.25 million success fee to its financial advisor . in addition to certain other termination rights , the agreement may be terminated by either monarch or the seller if the closing has not occurred by the last day of the calendar month of the date that is nine months after the date of the agreement ( the ย“outside dateย” ) . monarch may extend the outside date to twelve months by increasing the deposit by $ 500,000. the parties have made certain representations and warranties in the agreement , including , without limitation , representations and warranties regarding the condition of the assets and liabilities of riviera black hawk , as applicable , pursuant to the agreement and the availability of funds to consummate the transaction . additionally , the parties have agreed to certain

( see ย“the acquisitionย” below ) . future cash needed to finance ongoing capital expenditures , and close the acquisition transaction ( see ย“the acquisitionย” below ) , is expected to be available from operating cash flow , the credit facility ( see ย“the credit facilityย” below ) and , if necessary , additional borrowings . 25 critical accounting policies and estimates we prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states . certain of our policies , including the estimated useful lives assigned to our assets , the determination of the allowance for doubtful accounts , self-insurance reserves , the calculation of income tax liabilities and the calculation of share-based compensation , require that we apply significant judgment in defining the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates . by their nature , these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty . our judgments are based on historical experience , terms of existing contracts , observation of trends in the industry , information provided by customers and information available from other outside sources , as appropriate . there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from our estimates . to provide an understanding of the methodologies applied , our significant accounting policies are discussed where appropriate in this discussion and analysis and in the notes to consolidated financial statements . the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of monarch , golden road , high desert , golden north , and monarch growth . intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated . allowance for doubtful accounts the company extends short-term credit to its gaming customers . such credit is non-interest bearing and is due on demand . in addition , the company also has receivables due from hotel guests which are primarily secured with a credit card at the time a customer checks in . an allowance for doubtful accounts is set up for all company receivables based upon the company 's historical collection and write-off experience , unless situations warrant a specific identification of a necessary reserve related to certain receivables . the company charges off its uncollectible receivables once all efforts have been made to collect such receivables . the book value of receivables approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the receivables . self-insurance reserves we are currently self-insured up to certain stop loss amounts for workers ' compensation and certain medical benefit costs provided to our employees . the company reviews self-insurance reserves at least quarterly . the reserve is determined by reviewing the actual expenditures for the previous twelve-month period and reports prepared by the third party plan administrator for any significant unpaid claims . the reserve is an amount estimated to pay both reported and unreported claims as of the balance sheet date . we believe changes in medical costs , trends in claims of our employee base , accident frequency and severity and other factors could materially affect the estimate for this reserve . story_separator_special_tag we may prepay borrowings under the new credit facility without penalty ( subject to certain charges applicable to the prepayment of libor borrowings prior to the end of the applicable interest period ) . amounts prepaid may be reborrowed so long as the total borrowings outstanding do not exceed the maximum principal available . we paid various one-time fees and other loan costs upon the closing of the refinancing of the new credit facility that are amortized over the facility 's term using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method . at december 31 , 2011 , we had $ 24.7 million outstanding under the new credit facility , none of which was classified as short-term debt . short-term debt represents the difference between the amount outstanding at december 31 , 2011 and the maximum principal allowed under the new credit facility on december 31 , 2012. the interest rate under our credit facility is libor , or a base rate ( as defined in the new credit facility agreement ) , plus an interest rate margin ranging from 1.25 % to 2.50 % depending on our leverage ratio . the interest rate is adjusted quarterly based on our leverage ratio calculated using operating results over the previous four quarters and borrowings at the end of the most recent quarter . at december 31 , 2011 pricing was set at the opening pricing point of libor plus 2.250 % and will be 32 adjusted in subsequent quarters in accordance with our leverage ratio . at december 31 , 2011 , the one-month libor rate was 0.29 % . the acquisition on september 29 , 2011 , monarch entered into a definitive stock purchase agreement ( the ย“agreementย” ) with riviera operating corporation , a nevada corporation , riviera holdings corporation , a nevada corporation ( collectively the ย“sellerย” and together with monarch , the ย“partiesย” ) and riviera black hawk , inc. , a colorado

will leave at least $ 2.1 million of net working capital comprised of at least $ 2.1 million of cash . the closing of the transaction contemplated by the agreement ( the ย“closing ) is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions , including , without limitation , ( i ) the approval of the transaction by the colorado limited gaming commission , ( ii ) the issuance of required licenses to monarch , and certain monarch management , from the colorado gaming commission , ( iii ) the absence of the occurrence of a material adverse effect on riviera black hawk between the date of the agreement and the closing of the transaction ( iv ) the receipt of certain consents , approvals or authorizations required to consummate the transaction contemplated by the agreement and other licenses and permits required to operate riviera black hawk , ( v ) certain materiality exceptions , the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by monarch and seller , respectively , ( vi ) compliance with the parties respective obligations under the agreement , ( vii ) the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the hart-scott-rodino antitrust improvements act of 1976 , as amended and ( viii ) other customary closing conditions . the transaction is not subject to a financing or due diligence condition . in accordance with the agreement , monarch made a non-refundable ( except under certain conditions ) deposit of $ 3.8 million ( the ย“depositย” ) which will be credited against the purchase price upon the closing . upon closing , monarch is also obligated to pay a $ 1.25 million success fee to its financial advisor . in addition to certain other termination rights , the agreement may be terminated by either monarch or the seller if the closing has not occurred

14 percent . the 2013 operating income margin after non-gaap adjustments was 21.2 percent and increased by 20 basis points compared to the 21.0 percent of net sales in 2012. this increased

during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible . in making this determination , under the applicable financial accounting standards , we are allowed to consider the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities , projected 36 future taxable income , and the effects of tax planning strategies . in the event that actual results differ from our estimates , we adjust our estimates in future periods and we may need to establish a valuation allowance , which could materially impact our financial position and results of operations . our valuation allowance increased by $ 300.2 million from $ 9.8 million as of december 29 , 2018 to $ 310.0 million as of december 28 , 2019 . the increase is primarily related to the recognition of $ 315.5 million of net operating loss deferred tax assets due to changes in our financing structure , $ 294.9 million of which we do not believe is more likely than not to be utilized . we account for uncertain tax positions using a โ€œ more-likely-than-not โ€ threshold for recognizing and resolving uncertain tax positions . we evaluate uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis and consider various factors , that include , but are not limited to , changes in tax law , the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns , the effective settlement of matters subject to audit , information obtained during in process audit activities and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position . we adjust the level of the liability to reflect any subsequent changes in the relevant facts surrounding the uncertain positions . our liabilities for uncertain tax positions can be relieved only if the contingency becomes legally extinguished through either payment to the taxing authority or the expiration of the statute of limitations , the recognition of the benefits associated with the position meet the โ€œ more-likely-than-not โ€ threshold or the liability becomes effectively settled through the controversy process . we consider matters to be effectively settled once the taxing authority has completed all of its required or expected examination procedures , including all appeals and administrative reviews ; we have no plans to appeal or litigate any aspect of the tax position ; and we believe that it is highly unlikely that the taxing authority would re-examine the related tax position . we also accrue for potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense . on december 22 , 2017 , the u.s. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as u.s. tax reform . u.s. tax reform made broad and complex changes to the u.s. tax code , including , but not limited to , ( i ) reducing the u.s. federal statutory tax rate from 35 % to 21 % ; ( ii ) requiring companies to pay a one-time transition tax ( transition tax ) on certain unrepatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries ; ( iii ) generally eliminating u.s federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries ; ( iv ) requiring a current inclusion in u.s. federal taxable income of certain earnings of controlled foreign

further discussion . goodwill and intangible assets we use assumptions and estimates in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination . the determination of the fair value of intangible assets , which represent a significant portion of the purchase price in many of our acquisitions , requires the use of significant judgment with regard to ( i ) the fair value ; and ( ii ) whether such intangibles are amortizable or non-amortizable and , if the former , the period and the method by which the intangible asset will be amortized . we utilize commonly accepted valuation techniques , such as the income approach and the cost approach , as appropriate , in establishing the fair value of intangible assets . typically , key assumptions include projections of cash flows that arise from identifiable intangible assets of acquired businesses as well as discount rates based on an analysis of the weighted average cost of capital , adjusted for specific risks associated with the assets . in our recent acquisitions , customer relationship intangible assets ( also referred to as client relationships ) have been the most significant identifiable assets acquired . to determine the fair value of the acquired client relationships , we utilized the multiple period excess earnings model ( a commonly accepted valuation technique ) , which includes the following key assumptions : projections of cash flows from the acquired entities , which included future revenue growth rates , operating income margins , and customer attrition rates ; as well as discount rates based on an analysis of the acquired entities ' weighted average cost of capital . the value of client relationships acquired were $ 134.6 million for

in the industry since 1984 and began operating as a reit for federal income tax purposes effective january 1 , 2013. as a result of the reit conversion , we reorganized our operations and moved non-real estate components into trss . through the trs structure , the portion of our businesses which are non-real estate related , such as our managed-only contracts , international operations , electronic monitoring services , and other non-residential and community based facilities , are part of wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries of the reit . most of our business segments , which are real estate related and involve company-owned and company-leased facilities , are part of the reit . the trs structure allows us to maintain the strategic alignment of almost all of our diversified business segments under one entity . the trs assets and operations will continue to be subject to federal and state corporate income taxes and to foreign taxes as applicable in the jurisdictions in which those assets and operations are located . 55 as a reit , we are required to distribute annually at least 90 % of our reit taxable income ( determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gain ) and we began paying regular distributions in 2013. we declared and paid the following regular reit distributions to our shareholders for the years ended december 31 , 2017 , 2016 and 2015 which were treated for federal income taxes as follows ( retroactively adjusted to reflect the effects of our 3-for-2 stock split ) : replace_table_token_16_th ( 1 ) the amount constitutes a ย“qualified dividendย” , as defined by the internal revenue service . ( 2 ) the amount constitutes a ย“return of capitalย” , as defined by the internal revenue service . critical accounting policies we believe that the accounting policies described below are critical to understanding our business , results of operations and financial condition because they involve the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements . we have discussed the development , selection and application of our critical accounting policies with the audit committee of our board of directors , and our audit committee has reviewed our disclosure relating to our critical accounting policies in this ย“management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations.ย” our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states . as such , we are required to make certain estimates , judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information available . these estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period . we routinely evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that our management believes are reasonable under the circumstances . actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions . if actual results significantly differ from our estimates , our financial condition and results of operations could be materially impacted . other significant accounting policies , primarily those with lower levels of uncertainty than those discussed below , are also critical to understanding our consolidated financial statements . the notes to our consolidated financial statements contain additional information related to our accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with this discussion . revenue recognition facility management revenues are recognized as services are provided under facility management contracts with approved government appropriations based on a net rate per day per inmate or on a fixed monthly rate , as 56 applicable . a limited number of our contracts have provisions upon which a small portion of the revenue for the contract is based on the performance of certain targets . revenue based on the performance of certain targets is less than 1 % of our consolidated annual revenues . these performance targets are based on specific criteria to be met over specific periods of time . such criteria includes our ability to achieve certain contractual benchmarks relative to the quality of service we provide , non-occurrence of certain disruptive events , effectiveness of our quality control programs and our responsiveness to customer requirements and concerns . for the limited number of contracts where revenue is based on the performance of certain targets , revenue is either ( i ) recorded pro rata when revenue is fixed and determinable or ( ii ) recorded when the specified time period lapses . in many instances , we are a party to more than one contract with a single entity . in these instances , each contract is accounted for separately . construction revenues are recognized from our contracts with certain customers to perform construction and design services ( ย“project development servicesย” ) for various facilities . in these instances , we act as the primary developer and subcontract with bonded national and or regional design build contractors . these construction revenues are recognized as earned on a percentage of completion basis measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date as compared to the estimated total cost for each contract . provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts and changes to cost estimates are made in the period in which we determine that such losses and changes are probable . typically , we enter into fixed price contracts and do not perform additional work unless approved change orders are in place . costs attributable to unapproved change orders are expensed in the period in which the costs are incurred if we believe that it is not probable that the costs will be recovered through a change in the contract price . story_separator_special_tag we perform the impairment analyses on an annual basis for each of the idle facilities and update each quarter for market developments for the potential utilization of each of the facilities in order to identify events that may cause us to reconsider the most recent assumptions . such events could include negotiations with a prospective customer for the utilization of an idle facility at terms significantly less favorable than used in our most recent impairment analysis , or changes in legislation surrounding a particular facility that could impact our ability to house certain types of inmates at such facility . further , a substantial increase in the number of available beds at other facilities that we own , or in the marketplace , could lead to deterioration in market conditions and projected cash flows . although they are not frequently received , an unsolicited offer to purchase any of our idle facilities , at amounts that are less than their carrying value could also cause us to reconsider the assumptions used in the most recent impairment analysis . we have identified marketing prospects to utilize each of the remaining currently idled facilities and do not see any catalysts that would result in a current impairment . however , we can provide no assurance that we will be able to secure management contracts to utilize our idle facilities , or that we will not incur impairment charges in the future . in all cases , the projected undiscounted cash flows in our analysis as of december 31 , 2017 substantially exceeded the carrying amounts of each facility . our evaluations also take into consideration historical experience in securing new management contracts to utilize facilities that had been previously idled for periods comparable to or in excess of the periods our currently idle facilities have been idled . such previously idle facilities are currently being operated under contracts that generate cash flows resulting in the recoverability of the net book value of the previously idled facilities by substantial amounts . due to a variety of factors , the lead time to negotiate contracts with federal and state agencies to utilize idle bed capacity is generally lengthy which has historically resulted in periods of idleness similar to the ones we are currently experiencing . as a result of our analyses , we determined each of these assets to have recoverable values substantially in excess of the corresponding carrying values . by their nature , these estimates contain uncertainties with respect to the extent and timing of the respective cash flows due to potential delays or material changes to forecasted terms and conditions in contracts with prospective customers that could impact the estimate of projected cash flows . notwithstanding the effects the current economy has had on our customers ' demand for prison beds in the short term which has led to our decision to idle certain facilities , we believe the long-term trends favor an increase in the utilization of our idle correctional facilities . this belief is also based on our experience in working with governmental agencies faced with significant budgetary challenges which is a primary contributing factor to the lack of appropriated funding to build new bed capacity by federal and state agencies . recent accounting pronouncements recent accounting pronouncements the company implemented the following accounting standards during the year ended december 31 , 2017 : in january 2017 , the financial accounting standards board ( ย“fasbย” ) issued accounting standards update ( ย“asuย” ) no . 2017-04 , ย“intangibles-goodwill and other , ย” which is intended to simplify the test for goodwill impairment . to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill , this update eliminates step 2 from the goodwill impairment test . in computing the implied fair value of goodwill under step 2 , an entity had to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination . instead , under the amendments in this update , an entity should perform its annual , or interim , goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount . an entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit 's fair value . an entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary . the amendments in this update are effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after december 15 , 2019 , including interim periods within those fiscal years . early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill tests performed on testing dates after january 1 , 61 2017. we have elected to early adopt this standard during the fourth quarter of 2017. the implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial position , results of operations or cash flows . in march 2016 , the fasb issued asu no . 2016-09 , ย“compensation ย— stock compensation ( topic 718 ) , ย” as a part of its simplification initiative . the company adopted this asu during 2017. key areas of the amendments in this standard are ( i ) all excess tax benefits ( deficiencies ) from stock plan transactions should be recognized in the income statement as opposed to being recognized in additional paid-in capital ; ( ii ) the tax withholding threshold for triggering liability accounting on a net settlement transaction has been increased from the minimum statutory rate to the maximum statutory rate ; and ( iii ) an entity can make an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures as they occur . the guidance also provides clarification of the presentation of certain components of

( 2 ) the amount constitutes a ย“return of capitalย” , as defined by the internal revenue service . critical accounting policies we believe that the accounting policies described below are critical to understanding our business , results of operations and financial condition because they involve the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements . we have discussed the development , selection and application of our critical accounting policies with the audit committee of our board of directors , and our audit committee has reviewed our disclosure relating to our critical accounting policies in this ย“management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations.ย” our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states . as such , we are required to make certain estimates , judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information available . these estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period . we routinely evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that our management believes are reasonable under the circumstances . actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions . if actual results significantly differ from our estimates , our financial condition and results of operations could be materially impacted . other significant accounting policies , primarily those with lower levels of uncertainty than those discussed below , are also critical to understanding our consolidated financial statements . the notes to our consolidated financial statements contain additional information related to our accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with this discussion . revenue recognition facility management revenues are recognized as services are provided under facility management contracts with approved government appropriations based on a net rate per day per inmate or on a fixed monthly rate , as 56 applicable . a limited number of our contracts have provisions upon which a small portion of the revenue for the contract is based on the performance of certain targets . revenue based on the performance of certain targets is less than 1 % of our consolidated annual revenues . these performance targets are based on specific criteria to be met over specific periods of time . such criteria includes our ability to achieve certain contractual benchmarks relative to the quality of service we provide , non-occurrence of certain disruptive events , effectiveness of our quality control programs and our responsiveness to customer requirements and concerns . for the limited number of contracts where revenue is based on the performance of certain targets , revenue is either ( i ) recorded pro rata when revenue is fixed and determinable or ( ii ) recorded when the specified time period lapses . in many instances , we are a party to more than one contract with a single entity . in these instances , each contract is accounted for separately . construction revenues are recognized from our contracts with certain customers to perform construction and design services ( ย“project development servicesย” ) for various facilities . in these instances , we act as the primary developer and subcontract with bonded national and or regional design build contractors . these construction revenues are recognized as earned on a percentage of completion basis measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date as compared to the estimated total cost for each contract . provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts and changes to cost estimates are made in the period in which we determine that such losses and changes are probable . typically , we enter into fixed price contracts and do not perform additional work unless approved change orders are in place . costs attributable to unapproved change orders are expensed in the period in which the costs are incurred if we believe that it is not probable that the costs will be recovered through a change in the contract price . story_separator_special_tag we perform the impairment analyses on an annual basis for each of the idle facilities and update each quarter for market developments for the potential utilization of each of the facilities in order to identify events that may cause us to reconsider the most recent assumptions . such events could include negotiations with a prospective customer for the utilization of an idle facility at terms significantly less favorable than used in our most recent impairment analysis , or changes in legislation surrounding a particular facility that could impact our ability to house certain types of inmates at such facility . further , a substantial increase in the number of available beds at other facilities that we own , or in the marketplace , could lead to deterioration in market conditions and projected cash flows . although they are not frequently received , an unsolicited offer to purchase any of our idle facilities , at amounts that are less than their carrying value could also cause us to reconsider the assumptions used in the most recent impairment analysis . we have identified marketing prospects to utilize each of the remaining currently idled facilities and do not see any catalysts that would result in a current impairment . however , we can provide no assurance that we will be able to secure management contracts to utilize our idle facilities , or that we will not incur impairment charges in the future . in all cases , the projected undiscounted cash flows in our analysis as of december 31 , 2017 substantially exceeded the carrying amounts of each facility . our evaluations also take into consideration historical experience in securing new management contracts to utilize facilities that had been previously idled for periods comparable to or in excess of the periods our currently idle facilities have been idled . such previously idle facilities are currently being operated under contracts that generate cash flows resulting in the recoverability of the net book value of the previously idled facilities by substantial amounts . due to a variety of factors , the lead time to negotiate contracts with federal and state agencies to utilize idle bed capacity is generally lengthy which has historically resulted in periods of idleness similar to the ones we are currently experiencing . as a result of our analyses , we determined each of these assets to have recoverable values substantially in excess of the corresponding carrying values . by their nature , these estimates contain uncertainties with respect to the extent and timing of the respective cash flows due to potential delays or material changes to forecasted terms and conditions in contracts with prospective customers that could impact the estimate of projected cash flows . notwithstanding the effects the current economy has had on our customers ' demand for prison beds in the short term which has led to our decision to idle certain facilities , we believe the long-term trends favor an increase in the utilization of our idle correctional facilities . this belief is also based on our experience in working with governmental agencies faced with significant budgetary challenges which is a primary contributing factor to the lack of appropriated funding to build new bed capacity by federal and state agencies . recent accounting pronouncements recent

expectations as compared to 2019 , as discussed below : we entered into a definitive agreement on january 9 , 2020 to sell our speedo north america business to pentland for $ 170 million in cash , subject to a working capital adjustment , as described above . we recorded a pre-tax noncash loss of $ 142 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 related to the speedo transaction and expected deconsolidation of the net assets of the business , consisting of ( i ) a noncash impairment of our perpetual license right for the speedo trademark and ( ii ) a noncash loss to reduce the carrying value of the business to its estimated fair value , less costs to sell . we entered into agreements on july 3 , 2019 to terminate early the licenses for the global calvin klein and tommy hilfiger north america socks and hosiery businesses in order to consolidate the socks and hosiery businesses for all of our brands in the united states and canada in a newly formed joint venture , pvh legwear , in which we own a 49 % economic interest , and to bring in-house the international calvin klein socks and hosiery wholesale businesses . pvh legwear was formed with a wholly owned subsidiary of our former heritage brands socks and hosiery licensee , and licenses from us the rights to distribute and sell tommy hilfiger , calvin klein , izod , van heusen and warner 's socks and hosiery beginning in december 2019. we recorded a pre-tax charge of $ 60 million during 2019 in connection with these agreements . we completed the australia and th csap acquisitions in the second quarter of 2019. the australia acquisition closed on may 31 , 2019. prior to the closing , we , along with gazal , jointly owned and managed a joint venture , pvh australia , which licensed and operated businesses under the tommy hilfiger , calvin klein and van heusen brands , along with other owned and licensed brands . pvh australia came under our full control as a result of the australia acquisition and we now operate directly those businesses . the aggregate net purchase price for the shares acquired was $ 59 million , net of cash acquired and after taking into account the proceeds from the divestiture to a third party of an office building and warehouse owned by gazal in june 2019. we completed the th csap acquisition on july 1 , 2019 for $ 74 million , as a result of which we now operate directly the tommy hilfiger retail business in the central and southeast asia market . please see note 3 , โ€œ acquisitions , โ€ in the notes to consolidated financial statements included in item 8 of this report for further discussion . in connection with the australia and th csap acquisitions , we recorded an aggregate net pre-tax gain of $ 83 million during 2019 , including ( i ) a noncash gain of $ 113 million to write up our existing equity investments in gazal and pvh australia to fair value , partially offset by ( ii ) $ 21 million of pre-tax costs , primarily consisting of noncash valuation adjustments and one-time expenses recorded on our equity investments in gazal and pvh australia prior to the australia acquisition closing , and ( iii ) a $ 9 million expense recorded in interest expense , net resulting from the remeasurement of our mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest that was recognized in connection with the australia acquisition . we entered into a licensing agreement on may 30 , 2019 with g-iii for the design , production and wholesale distribution of calvin klein jeans women 's jeanswear collections in the united states and canada , which resulted in the discontinuation of our directly operated calvin klein north america women 's jeanswear wholesale business in 2019. we refinanced on april 29 , 2019 our senior credit facilities and recorded pre-tax debt modification and extinguishment charges of $ 5 million . please see the section entitled โ€œ liquidity and capital resources โ€ below for further discussion . we closed our tommy hilfiger flagship and anchor stores in the united states ( the โ€œ th u.s. store closures โ€ ) in the first quarter of 2019 and recorded pre-tax costs of $ 55 million , primarily consisting of noncash lease asset impairments . please see note 12 , โ€œ fair value measurements , โ€ in the notes to consolidated financial statements included in item 8 of this report for further discussion of the noncash lease asset impairments . we announced on january 10 , 2019 a restructuring in connection with strategic changes for our calvin klein business ( the โ€œ calvin klein restructuring โ€ ) . story_separator_special_tag the following table shows our revenue mix between net sales and royalty , advertising and other revenue , as well as our gross margin for 2019 , 2018 and 2017 : replace_table_token_3_th gross profit in 2019 was $ 5.388 billion , or 54.4 % of total revenue , as compared to $ 5.308 billion , or 55.0 % of total revenue , in 2018. the 60 basis point decrease in gross margin was principally driven by ( i ) a gross margin decline in our tommy hilfiger north america business due to more promotional selling as compared to the prior year , ( ii ) the impact of additional inventory reserves recorded in the fourth quarter of 2019 in anticipation of lower 2020 sales trends as a result of the onset of the covid-19 outbreak , ( iii ) short-lived noncash inventory valuation adjustments recorded in connection with the australia and th csap acquisitions , and ( iv ) the negative impact of tariffs imposed on goods imported from china into the united states . these decreases were partially offset by the favorable impact of faster growth in our tommy hilfiger 37 international and calvin klein international segments than in our north america segments , as our international segments generally carry higher gross margins , as well as gross margin improvements realized in our calvin klein north america business . gross profit in 2018 was $ 5.308 billion , or 55.0 % of total revenue , as compared to $ 4.894 billion , or 54.9 % of total revenue , in 2017. the 10 basis point increase in gross margin was principally driven by ( i ) a favorable mix of business due to faster growth in our tommy hilfiger international and calvin klein international segments than in our north america segments , as our international segments generally carry higher gross margins , and ( ii ) gross margin improvement in our tommy hilfiger business . partially offsetting these increases were gross margin declines in our calvin klein and heritage brands businesses principally due to more promotional selling . we currently expect that gross margin in 2020 will decrease as compared to 2019 primarily due to ( i ) the need for increased promotional selling and inventory liquidation as a result of the covid-19 outbreak and ( ii ) the unfavorable impact of the stronger united states dollar on our international businesses that purchase inventory in united states dollars , particularly our european businesses , as the increased local currency value of inventory results in higher cost of goods in local currency when the goods are sold . there is significant uncertainty with respect to the impact of the covid-19 outbreak on our business and the businesses of our licensees and other business partners . sg & a expenses our sg & a expenses were as follows : replace_table_token_4_th sg & a expenses in 2019 were $ 4.715 billion , or 47.6 % of total revenue , as compared to $ 4.433 billion , or 45.9 % of total revenue in 2018. the 170 basis point increase in sg & a expenses as a percentage of total revenue was principally attributable to ( i ) an increase in costs incurred in connection with the calvin klein restructuring , ( ii ) the costs incurred in connection with the socks and hosiery transaction , and ( iii ) the costs incurred in connection with the th u.s. store closures . also contributing to the increase was a change in the mix of business due to faster growth in our tommy hilfiger international and calvin klein international segments than in our north america segments , as our international segments generally carry higher sg & a expenses as percentages of total revenue . sg & a expenses in 2018 were $ 4.433 billion , or 45.9 % of total revenue , as compared to $ 4.245 billion , or 47.6 % of total revenue in 2017. the 170 basis point decrease in sg & a expenses as a percentage of total revenue was principally attributable to the absence in 2018 of costs that were recorded in 2017 in connection with ( i ) the mr. hilfiger amendment , ( ii ) the li & fung termination , and ( iii ) the relocation of our tommy hilfiger office in new york , including noncash depreciation expense . also contributing to the decrease was a leveraging of expenses in the tommy hilfiger business . these decreases were partially offset by ( i ) a change in the mix of business due to faster growth in our tommy hilfiger international and calvin klein international segments than in our north america segments , as our international segments generally carry higher sg & a expenses as percentages of total revenue , ( ii ) the costs incurred in connection with the calvin klein restructuring and ( iii ) an increase in corporate expenses due , in part , to investments in digital and information technology initiatives . in light of the negative impacts on our business resulting from the covid-19 outbreak , we are taking measures to significantly reduce sg & a expenses in 2020. as such , we currently expect our sg & a expenses in 2020 will be significantly lower as compared to 2019 , including as a result of the reductions resulting from these measures and the absence in 2020 of costs related to ( i ) the calvin klein restructuring , ( ii ) the socks and hosiery transaction and ( iii ) the th u.s. store closures . however , we expect our sg & a expenses as a percentage of total revenue in 2020 will increase as compared to 2019 primarily due to a deleveraging of expenses driven by the expected decline in revenue resulting from the covid-19 outbreak . there is significant uncertainty with respect to the impact of the covid-19 outbreak on our business and our sg & a
cash flow summary cash and cash equivalents at february 2 , 2020 was $ 503 million , an increase of $ 51 million from the amount at february 3 , 2019 of $ 452 million . the change in cash and cash equivalents included the impact of ( i ) $ 325 million of common stock repurchases under the stock repurchase program , ( ii ) $ 71 million of long-term debt repayments , ( iii ) a $ 59 million net payment made in connection with the australia acquisition , and ( iv ) a $ 74 million payment made in connection with the th csap acquisition . cash flow in 2020 will be impacted by various factors in addition to those noted below in this โ€œ liquidity and capital resources โ€ section , including ( i ) mandatory long-term debt repayments of approximately $ 14 million , subject to exchange rate fluctuations , ( ii ) common stock repurchases under the stock repurchase program of $ 111 million , which reflects stock repurchases through march 2020 with no further repurchases planned for the remainder of 2020 , and ( iii ) the expected proceeds of $ 170 million , subject to a working capital adjustment , related to the speedo transaction , which is expected to close in the first quarter of 2020. in addition , in march 2020 we increased the aggregate borrowings outstanding under our senior unsecured revolving credit facilities , other short-term revolving credit facilities and unsecured commercial paper note program to approximately $ 930 million , in order to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility in responding to the impacts of the covid-19 outbreak on our business .

) a $ 9 million expense recorded in interest expense , net resulting from the remeasurement of our mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest that was recognized in connection with the australia acquisition . we entered into a licensing agreement on may 30 , 2019 with g-iii for the design , production and wholesale distribution of calvin klein jeans women 's jeanswear collections in the united states and canada , which resulted in the discontinuation of our directly operated calvin klein north america women 's jeanswear wholesale business in 2019. we refinanced on april 29 , 2019 our senior credit facilities and recorded pre-tax debt modification and extinguishment charges of $ 5 million . please see the section entitled โ€œ liquidity and capital resources โ€ below for further discussion . we closed our tommy hilfiger flagship and anchor stores in the united states ( the โ€œ th u.s. store closures โ€ ) in the first quarter of 2019 and recorded pre-tax costs of $ 55 million , primarily consisting of noncash lease asset impairments . please see note 12 , โ€œ fair value measurements , โ€ in the notes to consolidated financial statements included in item 8 of this report for further discussion of the noncash lease asset impairments . we announced on january 10 , 2019 a restructuring in connection with strategic changes for our calvin klein business ( the โ€œ calvin klein restructuring โ€ ) . story_separator_special_tag the following table shows our revenue mix between net sales and royalty , advertising and other revenue , as well as our gross margin for 2019 , 2018 and 2017 : replace_table_token_3_th gross profit in 2019 was $ 5.388 billion , or 54.4 % of total revenue , as compared to $ 5.308 billion , or 55.0 % of total revenue , in 2018. the 60 basis point decrease in gross margin was principally driven by ( i ) a gross margin decline in our tommy hilfiger north america business due to more promotional selling as compared to the prior year , ( ii ) the impact of additional inventory reserves recorded in the fourth quarter of 2019 in anticipation of lower 2020 sales trends as a result of the onset of the covid-19 outbreak , ( iii ) short-lived noncash inventory valuation adjustments recorded in connection with the australia and th csap acquisitions , and ( iv ) the negative impact of tariffs imposed on goods imported from china into the united states . these decreases were partially offset by the favorable impact of faster growth in our tommy hilfiger 37 international and calvin klein international segments than in our north america segments , as our international segments generally carry higher gross margins , as well as gross margin improvements realized in our calvin klein north america business . gross profit in 2018 was $ 5.308 billion , or 55.0 % of total revenue , as compared to $ 4.894 billion , or 54.9 % of total revenue , in 2017. the 10 basis point increase in gross margin was principally driven by ( i ) a favorable mix of business due to faster growth in our tommy hilfiger international and calvin klein international segments than in our north america segments , as our international segments generally carry higher gross margins , and ( ii ) gross margin improvement in our tommy hilfiger business . partially offsetting these increases were gross margin declines in our calvin klein and heritage brands businesses principally due to more promotional selling . we currently expect that gross margin in 2020 will decrease as compared to 2019 primarily due to ( i ) the need for increased promotional selling and inventory liquidation as a result of the covid-19 outbreak and ( ii ) the unfavorable impact of the stronger united states dollar on our international businesses that purchase inventory in united states dollars , particularly our european businesses , as the increased local currency value of inventory results in higher cost of goods in local currency when the goods are sold . there is significant uncertainty with respect to the impact of the covid-19 outbreak on our business and the businesses of our licensees and other business partners . sg & a expenses our sg & a expenses were as follows : replace_table_token_4_th sg & a expenses in 2019 were $ 4.715 billion , or 47.6 % of total revenue , as compared to $ 4.433 billion , or 45.9 % of total revenue in 2018. the 170 basis point increase in sg & a expenses as a percentage of total revenue was principally attributable to ( i ) an increase in costs incurred in connection with the calvin klein restructuring , ( ii ) the costs incurred in connection with the socks and hosiery transaction , and ( iii ) the costs incurred in connection with the th u.s. store closures . also contributing to the increase was a change in the mix of business due to faster growth in our tommy hilfiger international and calvin klein international segments than in our north america segments , as our international segments generally carry higher sg & a expenses as percentages of total revenue . sg & a expenses in 2018 were $ 4.433 billion , or 45.9 % of total revenue , as compared to $ 4.245 billion , or 47.6 % of total revenue in 2017. the 170 basis point decrease in sg & a expenses as a percentage of total revenue was principally attributable to the absence in 2018 of costs that were recorded in 2017 in connection with ( i ) the mr. hilfiger amendment , ( ii ) the li & fung termination , and ( iii ) the relocation of our tommy hilfiger office in new york , including noncash depreciation expense . also contributing to the decrease was a leveraging of expenses in the tommy hilfiger business . these decreases were partially offset by ( i ) a change in the mix of business due to faster growth in our tommy hilfiger international and calvin klein international segments than in our north america segments , as our international segments generally carry higher sg & a expenses as percentages of total revenue , ( ii ) the costs incurred in connection with the calvin klein restructuring and ( iii ) an increase in corporate expenses due , in part , to investments in digital and information technology initiatives . in light of the negative impacts on our business resulting from the covid-19 outbreak , we are taking measures to significantly reduce sg & a expenses in 2020. as such , we currently expect our sg & a expenses in 2020 will be significantly lower as compared to 2019 , including as a result of the reductions resulting from these measures and the absence in 2020 of costs related to ( i ) the calvin klein restructuring , ( ii ) the socks and hosiery transaction and ( iii ) the th u.s. store closures . however , we expect our sg & a expenses as a percentage of total revenue in 2020 will increase as compared to 2019 primarily due to a deleveraging of expenses driven by the expected decline in revenue resulting from the covid-19 outbreak . there is significant uncertainty with respect to the impact of the covid-19 outbreak on our business and our sg & a

our goal is to use our company 's assetsโ€”our brands , financial strength , and the talent and strong commitment of our management and employeesโ€”to become more competitive and to accelerate growth . critical accounting policies and estimates management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements , which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the united states ( โ€œ gaap โ€ ) . the preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires our management to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets , liabilities , revenues and expenses , and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities . these estimates are based on management 's historical and industry experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances . on a regular basis , we evaluate these accounting policies , assumptions , estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with gaap . however , because future events and their effects can not be determined with certainty , actual results may differ from our estimates , and such differences could be material . a full discussion of our significant accounting policies is contained in note 2 to our consolidated financial statements , which is included in item 8 โ€“ โ€œ financial statements and supplementary data โ€ of this report . we believe that the following accounting estimates are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our financial results . these estimates require our most difficult , subjective or complex judgments because they relate to matters that are inherently uncertain . we have reviewed these critical accounting policies and estimates and related disclosures with our audit committee . long-lived assets we review long-lived assets , such as property and equipment , and intangible assets subject to amortization , for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable . these events or changes in circumstances include , but are not limited to , significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results , significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business , and significant negative industry or economic trends . recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset group to the estimated undiscounted cash flows over the estimated remaining useful life of the primary asset included in the asset group . if the asset group is not recoverable , the impairment loss is calculated as the excess of the carrying value over the fair value . we define our asset group as an operating club or restaurant location , which is also our reporting unit or the lowest level for which cash flows can be identified . key estimates in the undiscounted cash flow model include management 's estimate of the projected revenues and operating margins . if fair value is used to determine an impairment loss , an additional key assumption is the selection of a weighted-average cost of capital to discount cash flows . assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell and are no longer depreciated . during the fourth quarter of 2019 , we impaired two clubs for a total of $ 4.2 million ; during the fourth quarter of 2018 , we impaired one club and one bombshells by a total of $ 1.6 million ; and during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 , we impaired one club by $ 385,000. goodwill and other intangible assets goodwill and other intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives are tested annually for impairment during our fourth fiscal quarter , and are tested for impairment more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired . 22 our impairment calculations require management to make assumptions and to apply judgment in order to estimate fair values . if our actual results are not consistent with our estimates and assumptions , we may be exposed to impairments that could be material . we do not believe that there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a change in the estimates or assumptions we used that could cause a material change in our calculated impairment charges . for our goodwill impairment review , we have the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value . this assessment is based on several factors , including industry and market conditions , overall financial performance , including an assessment of cash flows in comparison to actual and projected results of prior periods . if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value based on our qualitative analysis , or if we elect to skip this step , we perform a step 1 quantitative analysis to determine the fair value of the reporting unit . the fair value is determined using market-related valuation models , including earnings multiples , discounted cash flows , and comparable asset market values . key estimates in the discounted cash flow model include management 's estimate of the projected revenues and operating margins , along with the selection of a weighted-average cost of capital to discount cash flows . story_separator_special_tag income from operations below is a table which reflects segment contribution to income from operations ( in thousands ) : replace_table_token_18_th our operating margin ( income from operations divided by revenues ) was 19.2 % in 2019 , 16.6 % in 2018 , and 16.0 % in 2017. nightclubs operating margin was 34.1 % , 31.1 % , and 28.2 % in 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 , respectively , primarily due to the closure of underperforming units , fixed expense leverage on increasing sales , and impairment of assets of $ 5.9 million , $ 4.4 million , and $ 6.5 million for 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 , respectively . bombshells operating margin was 7.4 % , 8.5 % , and 16.4 % in 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 , respectively , mainly due to pre-opening expenses in 2019 ( particularly in salaries and wages and selling , general and administrative expenses ) and impairment of assets of $ 1.1 million in 2018 . 30 excluding the impact of settlement of lawsuits , impairment of assets , gain on insurance , gain on patron tax settlement , and gain on sale of businesses and assets , operating margin for the nightclub segment would have been 35.9 % , 35.1 % , and 33.1 % for 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 , respectively . excluding the impact of impairment of assets , loss on sale of assets , and settlement of lawsuits , bombshells segment operating margin would have been 7.6 % , 15.1 % , and 16.4 % for 2019 , 2018 , and 2017 , respectively . refer to discussion of non-gaap financial measures on page 32. interest expense interest expense increased by $ 255,000 from 2018 to 2019 , and increased by $ 1.2 million from 2017 to 2018. the increase in interest expense is due to higher average debt balance partially offset by lower weighted average interest rate . during the first quarter of 2018 , we significantly increased our debt balance with our $ 81 million refinancing , but that transaction also significantly reduced our weighted average interest rate . during 2019 , our debt repayments were significantly higher than our borrowing , excluding borrowings from acquisitions , thereby reducing interest expense as a percentage of revenue . we consider rent plus interest expense as our occupancy costs since most of our debts are for real property where our clubs and restaurants are located . for occupancy cost purposes , we exclude non-real-estate-related interest expense . as a percentage of revenues , total occupancy costs , with its components , are shown below . replace_table_token_19_th income taxes income taxes were an expense of $ 4.9 million in 2019 , a benefit of $ 3.1 million in 2018 , and an expense of $ 6.4 million in 2017. our effective income tax rate was a 20.1 % expense in 2019 , a 17.5 % benefit in 2018 , and a 43.4 % expense in 2017. the components of our annual effective income tax rate are the following : replace_table_token_20_th during fiscal year 2017 , due to higher income before tax , our income tax rate has increased to 37 % , of which has impacted the fourth quarter with the change in rate from 35 % in the first nine months of the year and in prior years . a full year impact in the change in rate of our deferred tax liability has also been recognized in the fourth quarter . the change in deferred tax liability rate for 2017 is due to the 1 % increase in our effective tax rate from the increase in the federal rate and also an increase in the states rate . this amount results from increasing by 2 % the rate applied to our entire deferred tax liabilities at the beginning of the year . the reserve for uncertain tax positions results from an audit of the returns of one of the states in which we operate . as a result of the items discussed above which affected the fiscal year , the fourth quarter effective tax rate rose to 99.6 % expense on a pre-tax loss . on december 22 , 2017 , during our first quarter 2018 , the tax cuts and jobs act ( the โ€œ tax act โ€ ) was enacted into law , which provides for significant changes to the u.s. internal revenue code of 1986 , as amended , such as a reduction in the statutory federal corporate tax rate from a maximum of 35 % to a flat 21 % rate effective from january 1 , 2018 forward and changes and limitations to certain tax deductions . the company has a fiscal year end of september 30 , so the change to the statutory corporate tax rate results in a blended federal statutory rate of 24.5 % for its fiscal year 2018. the increase in state tax effective rate from 2017 to 2018 was mainly caused by the impact of return-to-provision true-up , which has an expense impact in 2018 while having a benefit in 2017. during fiscal 2019 , the effective income tax rate has normalized to 20.1 % , with the rate difference from the statutory federal corporate tax rate of 21 % coming from offsetting impact of state income tax , net of federal benefit , and tax credits that are mostly fica tip credits . 31 non-gaap financial measures in addition to our financial information presented in accordance with gaap , management uses certain non-gaap financial measures , within the meaning of the sec regulation g , to

considered economical for new investments in numerous natural gas fields . draws in late 2017 were larger than normal , resulting in total u.s. natural gas inventories of 2.8 trillion cubic feet at the end of 2017 , 13.0 % lower than levels at this time a year ago , and 12.1 % lower than the five-year average . inventories are expected to build slightly above the five year average by the end of october 2018. after a period of growth in exploration activities and associated spending leading up to the end of 2014 , many e & p companies shifted their focus to production activities , away from exploration , as the continued decline in oil and gas prices resulted in decreased revenues , prompting cost reduction initiatives across the industry . from the end of 2014 through 2017 , e & p companies decreased spending on exploration and reportedly focused their spending on critical production requirements and existing commitments . we believe this was due to several factors , but primarily because operational cash flows of e & p companies were no longer sufficient to cover capital expenditures while continuing to pay cash dividends to shareholders . e & p companies relied on asset sales and debt financings to fund capital requirements amid demands for greater returns to shareholders . the combination of these factors placed many e & p companies in a position where they were unable to cover both their capital expenditure budgets and targeted cash returns to shareholders . as a result , e & p companies dramatically cut spending , with exploration spending receiving the largest reductions and seismic spending being one of the most discretionary parts of their exploration budgets . as a result of this industry downturn , many customers experienced a significant reduction in their liquidity with challenges accessing the capital markets . several exploration and production companies declared bankruptcy , or exchanged equity for the forgiveness of debt , while others were forced to sell assets in an effort to preserve 34 liquidity . however , over the past 12 months , access to the capital and debt markets improved significantly for certain of these customers . e & p spending is expected to continue to rebound in 2018 over 2017 , which was preceded by two successive years of double digit declines as commodity prices are forecasted to remain more stable . this positive trend in e & p spending , aided by favorable macroeconomic conditions has resulted in increased revenues during 2017. if the global supply of oil decreases due to reduced capital investment by e & p companies , government instability occurs in a major oil-producing nation or energy demand increases in the u.s. or in countries such as china and india , the recovery in wti and brent crude oil prices could continue to improve . if commodity prices do not continue to improve or if they start to deteriorate again , demand for our services and products could decline . impact to our business during 2017 , we saw renewed customer interest in underwriting of our new venture multi-client programs as oil companies were able to right-size their expenditures to current oil prices and generate profits for the first time in eight quarters . during 2017 , revenues increased 14 % versus prior year . investments in our multi-client data library are dependent upon the timing of our new venture projects and the availability of underwriting by our customers . we continue to maintain high standards for the underwriting of any new projects , and sanctioned several new programs during 2017 that were originally planned to occur during 2016. our โ€œ asset light โ€ strategy enables us to scale our business to avoid significant fixed costs and to remain financially flexible as we manage the timing and levels of our capital expenditures . in our e & p technology & services segment , our new venture revenues increased driven by our 3-d multi-client reimaging programs offshore mexico and brazil , as well as revenues from a new 2-d multi-client program in panama and other programs that have recently been launched , which met our conservative underwriting standards . imaging services revenues decreased as a result of our strategic shift toward higher return multi-client programs . the imaging work on multi-client programs are reflected as part of new venture or data library revenues depending on the program status , whereas revenues from proprietary imaging programs are reflected as part of imaging services . the imaging services group is fully

working capital requirements are primarily driven by our investment in our ( i ) multi-client data library ( $ 23.7 million in 2017 ) and royalty payments for multi-client sales . also , our headcount has traditionally been a significant driver of our working capital needs . as a significant portion of our business is involved in the planning , processing and interpretation of seismic data , one of

approximately $ 95 million which we began to fully realize in 2017. during 2017 , we saw an improved operating environment in oil prices which has contributed to a stabilization in our workforce . 42 our working capital requirements may change from time to time depending upon many factors , including our operating results and adjustments in our operating plan in response to industry conditions ,

these significant accounting estimates and critical accounting policies include : revenue recognition our rental income is primarily related to rent received from tenants in our mobs and triple-net leased healthcare facilities . rent from tenants in our mob and triple-net leased healthcare facilities operating segments is recorded in accordance with the terms of each lease on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease . because many of the leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals , accounting principles generally accepted in the united states ( `` gaap `` ) require us to record a receivable , and include in revenues on a straight-line basis , unbilled rent receivables that we will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease . when we acquire a property , the acquisition date is considered to be the commencement date for purposes of this calculation . for new leases after acquisition , the commencement date is considered to be the date the tenant takes control of the space . for lease modifications , the commencement date is considered to be the date the lease is executed . we defer the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates . cost recoveries from tenants are included in operating expense reimbursement in the period the related costs are incurred , as applicable . resident services and fee income primarily relates to rent from residents in our seniors housing โ€” operating properties ( `` shop `` ) held using a structure permitted by the reit investment diversification and empowerment act of 2007 and to fees for ancillary services performed for residents in our shops . rental income from residents of our shop operating segment is recognized as earned . residents pay monthly rent that covers occupancy of their unit and basic services , including utilities , meals and some housekeeping services . the terms of the rent are short term in nature , primarily month-to-month . fees for ancillary services are recorded in the period in which the services are performed . we defer the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants and residents in advance of their due dates . we continually review receivables related to rent and unbilled rent receivables and determine collectability by taking into consideration the tenant 's payment history , the financial condition of the tenant , business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located . in the event that the collectability of a receivable is in doubt , we record an increase in the allowance for uncollectible accounts on the consolidated balance sheets or record a direct write-off of the receivable in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss . real estate investments investments in real estate are recorded at cost . improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life or improve the productive capacity of the asset . costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred . we evaluate the inputs , processes and outputs of each asset acquired to determine if the transaction is a business combination or asset acquisition . if an acquisition qualifies as a business combination , the related transaction costs are recorded as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss . if an acquisition qualifies as an asset acquisition , the related transaction costs are generally capitalized and subsequently amortized over the useful life of the acquired assets . in business combinations , we allocate the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on their respective fair values . tangible assets may include land , land improvements , buildings , fixtures and tenant improvements . intangible assets may include the value of in-place leases and above- and below-market leases . in addition , any assumed mortgages receivable or payable and any assumed or issued non-controlling interests are recorded at their estimated fair values . we generally determine the value of construction in progress based upon the replacement cost . during the construction period , we capitalize interest , insurance and real estate taxes until the development has reached substantial completion . the fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property with an in-place operating lease is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant , and the โ€œ as-if-vacant โ€ value is then allocated to the tangible assets based on the fair value of the tangible assets . the fair value of in-place leases is determined by considering estimates of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods , current market conditions , as well as costs to execute similar leases . the fair value of above- or below-market leases is recorded based on the present value of the difference between the contractual amount to be paid pursuant to the in-place lease and our estimate of the fair market lease rate for the corresponding in-place lease , measured over the remaining term of the lease including any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases . in making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price , we utilize a number of sources , including real estate valuations prepared by independent valuation firms . we also consider information and other factors including market conditions , the industry that the tenant operates in , characteristics of the real estate , i.e . location , size , demographics , value and comparative rental rates , tenant credit profile and the importance of the location of the real estate to the operations of the tenant 's business . in allocating the fair value to assumed mortgages , amounts are recorded to debt premiums or discounts based on the present value of the estimated cash flows , which is calculated to account for either above- or below-market interest rates . story_separator_special_tag as a result , we evaluated the impact on our ability to recover the carrying value of such properties based on the expected cash flows over our intended holding period . we determined that the carrying value of six of the held for use properties exceeded their estimated fair values and , as a result , recognized the impairment charge . impairment related to the sale of real estate investments during the year ended december 31 , 2016 related to two real estate investments held for sale with an accepted sales price less than the carrying value . this resulted in an impairment of $ 0.4 million during the period . operating fees to related parties operating fees to related parties increased $ 1.7 million to $ 22.3 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 from $ 20.6 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 . our advisor and property manager are paid for asset management and property management services for managing our properties on a day-to-day basis . effective february 17 , 2017 , we pay a base management fee equal to $ 1.6 million per month , while the variable portion of the base management fee is equal , per month , to one twelfth per month of 1.25 % of the cumulative net proceeds of any equity raised ( excluding drip proceeds ) subsequent to february 17 , 2017. during the year ended december 31 , 2016 , our asset management fee was equal to a percentage of the lesser of ( a ) cost of assets and ( b ) fair value of assets . asset management fees increased $ 0.5 million to $ 19.2 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 from $ 17.6 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 . we incurred $ 3.1 million and $ 3.0 million in property management fees during the year s ended december 31 , 2017 and december 31 , 2016 , respectively . property management fees increase or decrease in direct correlation with gross revenues of the properties managed . see note 9 โ€” related party transactions and arrangements to our consolidated financial statements provides detail on our fees and expense reimbursements . 59 acquisition and transaction related expenses acquisition and transaction related expenses generally increase in direct correlation with the number and contract purchase price of properties acquired or sold during the period and the level of activity surrounding any contemplated transaction or strategic process . acquisition and transaction related expenses of $ 3.0 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 . acquisition and transaction related expenses of approximately $ 3.2 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 , primarily related to the board 's evaluation of potential strategic alternatives and costs associated with property acquisitions . general and administrative expenses general and administrative expenses increased $ 3.6 million to $ 15.7 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 compared to $ 12.1 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 , which includes $ 8.1 million and $ 5.1 million incurred in expense reimbursements and distributions on partnership units of the op designated as `` class b units `` ( `` class b units `` ) to related parties . general and administrative expenses primarily relate to professional fees for audit , transfer agent and legal services as well as certain expenses reimbursed to related parties . depreciation and amortization expenses depreciation and amortization expense decreased $ 21.3 million to $ 77.6 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 from $ 98.9 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 . same store depreciation and amortization decreased $ 22.2 million , of which $ 15.5 million was related to the same store shop portfolio . this change was primarily attributed to several intangible assets becoming fully amortized in late 2016 as well as lower depreciation base in 2017 due to the $ 19.0 million asset impairment discussed above . interest expense interest expense increased $ 10.4 million to $ 30.3 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 from $ 19.9 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 . the increase in interest expense is related to higher overall outstanding debt

rental income is primarily related to rent received from tenants in our mobs and triple-net leased healthcare facilities . rent from tenants in our mob and triple-net leased healthcare facilities operating segments is recorded in accordance with the terms of each lease on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease . because many of the leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals , accounting principles generally accepted in the united states ( `` gaap `` ) require us to record a receivable , and include in revenues on a straight-line basis , unbilled rent receivables that we will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease . when we acquire a property , the acquisition date is considered to be the commencement date for purposes of this calculation . for new leases after acquisition , the commencement date is considered to be the date the tenant takes control of the space . for lease modifications , the commencement date is considered to be the date the lease is executed . we defer the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates . cost recoveries from tenants are included in operating expense reimbursement in the period the related costs are incurred , as applicable . resident services and fee income primarily relates to rent from residents in our seniors housing โ€” operating properties ( `` shop `` ) held using a structure permitted by the reit investment diversification and empowerment act of 2007 and to fees for ancillary services performed for residents in our shops . rental income from residents of our shop operating segment is recognized as earned . residents pay monthly rent that covers occupancy of their unit and basic services , including utilities , meals and some housekeeping services . the terms of the rent are short term in nature , primarily month-to-month . fees for ancillary services are recorded in the period in which the services are performed . we defer the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants and residents in advance of their due dates . we continually review receivables related to rent and unbilled rent receivables and determine collectability by taking into consideration the tenant 's payment history , the financial condition of the tenant , business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located . in the event that the collectability of a receivable is in doubt , we record an increase in the allowance for uncollectible accounts on the consolidated balance sheets or record a direct write-off of the receivable in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss . real estate investments investments in real estate are recorded at cost . improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life or improve the productive capacity of the asset . costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred . we evaluate the inputs , processes and outputs of each asset acquired to determine if the transaction is a business combination or asset acquisition . if an acquisition qualifies as a business combination , the related transaction costs are recorded as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss . if an acquisition qualifies as an asset acquisition , the related transaction costs are generally capitalized and subsequently amortized over the useful life of the acquired assets . in business combinations , we allocate the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on their respective fair values . tangible assets may include land , land improvements , buildings , fixtures and tenant improvements . intangible assets may include the value of in-place leases and above- and below-market leases . in addition , any assumed mortgages receivable or payable and any assumed or issued non-controlling interests are recorded at their estimated fair values . we generally determine the value of construction in progress based upon the replacement cost . during the construction period , we capitalize interest , insurance and real estate taxes until the development has reached substantial completion . the fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property with an in-place operating lease is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant , and the โ€œ as-if-vacant โ€ value is then allocated to the tangible assets based on the fair value of the tangible assets . the fair value of in-place leases is determined by considering estimates of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods , current market conditions , as well as costs to execute similar leases . the fair value of above- or below-market leases is recorded based on the present value of the difference between the contractual amount to be paid pursuant to the in-place lease and our estimate of the fair market lease rate for the corresponding in-place lease , measured over the remaining term of the lease including any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases . in making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price , we utilize a number of sources , including real estate valuations prepared by independent valuation firms . we also consider information and other factors including market conditions , the industry that the tenant operates in , characteristics of the real estate , i.e . location , size , demographics , value and comparative rental rates , tenant credit profile and the importance of the location of the real estate to the operations of the tenant 's business . in allocating the fair value to assumed mortgages , amounts are recorded to debt premiums or discounts based on the present value of the estimated cash flows , which is calculated to account for either above- or below-market interest rates . story_separator_special_tag as a result , we evaluated the impact on our ability to recover the carrying value of such properties based on the expected cash flows over our intended holding period . we determined that the carrying value of six of the held for use properties exceeded their estimated fair values and , as a result , recognized the impairment charge . impairment related to the sale of real estate investments during the year ended december 31 , 2016 related to two real estate investments held for sale with an accepted sales price less than the carrying value . this resulted in an impairment of $ 0.4 million during the period . operating fees to related parties operating fees to related parties increased $ 1.7 million to $ 22.3 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 from $ 20.6 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 . our advisor and property manager are paid for asset management and property management services for managing our properties on a day-to-day basis . effective february 17 , 2017 , we pay a base management fee equal to $ 1.6 million per month , while the variable portion of the base management fee is equal , per month , to one twelfth per month of 1.25 % of the cumulative net proceeds of any equity raised ( excluding drip proceeds ) subsequent to february 17 , 2017. during the year ended december 31 , 2016 , our asset management fee was equal to a percentage of the lesser of ( a ) cost of assets and ( b ) fair value of assets . asset management fees increased $ 0.5 million to $ 19.2 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 from $ 17.6 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 . we incurred $ 3.1 million and $ 3.0 million in property management fees during the year s ended december 31 , 2017 and december 31 , 2016 , respectively . property management fees increase or decrease in direct correlation with gross revenues of the properties managed . see note 9 โ€” related party transactions and arrangements to our consolidated financial statements provides detail on our fees and expense reimbursements . 59 acquisition and transaction related expenses acquisition and transaction related expenses generally increase in direct correlation with the number and contract purchase price of properties acquired or sold during the period and the level of activity surrounding any contemplated transaction or strategic process . acquisition and transaction related expenses of $ 3.0 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 . acquisition and transaction related expenses of approximately $ 3.2 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 , primarily related to the board 's evaluation of potential strategic alternatives and costs associated with property acquisitions . general and administrative expenses general and administrative expenses increased $ 3.6 million to $ 15.7 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 compared to $ 12.1 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 , which includes $ 8.1 million and $ 5.1 million incurred in expense reimbursements and distributions on partnership units of the op designated as `` class b units `` ( `` class b units `` ) to related parties . general and administrative expenses primarily relate to professional fees for audit , transfer agent and legal services as well as certain expenses reimbursed to related parties . depreciation and amortization expenses depreciation and amortization expense decreased $ 21.3 million to $ 77.6 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 from $ 98.9 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 . same store depreciation and amortization decreased $ 22.2 million , of which $ 15.5 million was related to the same store shop portfolio . this change was primarily attributed to several intangible assets becoming fully amortized in late 2016 as well as lower depreciation base in 2017 due to the $ 19.0 million asset impairment discussed above . interest expense interest expense increased $ 10.4 million to $ 30.3 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 from $ 19.9 million for the year ended december 31 , 2016 . the increase in interest expense is related to higher overall outstanding debt including new borrowings under the fannie mae facilities . our increased outstanding debt also includes a multi-property mortgage loan with capital one , national association , along with certain other lenders , that was entered into june 30 , 2017 for $ 250.0 million ( the `` mob loan `` ) and an $ 82.0 million multi-property mortgage loan ( the `` bridge loan `` ) entered into in december 2017. our interest expense in future periods will vary based on our level of future borrowings , the cost of borrowings and the opportunity to acquire real estate assets which meet our investment objectives . interest and other income interest and other income increased to approximately $ 0.3 million for the year ended december 31 , 2017 from approximately $ 47 thousand for the year ended december 31 , 2016 . interest and other income includes income from our investment securities and interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents held during the period . the increase resulted from the recognition of a prospective buyer 's non-refundable deposit on an unconsummated sale of a vacant land parcel during the year ended december 31 , 2017 . loss on non-designated derivative instruments loss on non-designated derivative instruments for the year ended december 31 , 2017 related to interest rate caps that are designed to protect us from adverse interest rate changes in connection with our fannie credit facilities , which have floating interest rates . the 2017 loss of approximately $ 0.2

. general and administrative expenses general and administrative ( โ€œ g & a โ€ ) expenses for the years ended december 31 , 2017 and 2016 , were approximately $ 6,572,000 and $ 7,681,000 , respectively , reflecting a decrease of approximately $ 1,109,000 or 14 % . the decrease in g & a expenses during the current period was mainly due to a one-time charge of $ 850,000 in 2016 resulting from a severance payment to a former executive upon termination . interest and other income interest and other income for the years ended december 31 , 2017 and 2016 was approximately $ 88,000 and $ 129,000 , respectively , representing a decrease of approximately $ 41,000 or 32 % . the primary cause for the decrease in investment income during the current period was primarily due to lower balances available to invest in the current period as compared to the prior period . redeemable warrants the quarterly fiscal revaluation of certain redeemable warrants resulted in a non-cash adjustment to the redeemable warrants liability for the year ended december 31 , 2017 amounting to a higher gain of approximately $ 740,000 ( see part i ; item 1 ; financial statements ; โ€œ note 17 :

ended december 31 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively , representing a decrease in loss of approximately $ 7,728,000 or 51 % when compared to the same period in 2015. this decrease in loss for this year was primarily due to the following : 1 ) a decrease in research and development expense of $ 2,931,000 or 36 % ; 2 ) a decrease in production costs of approximately $ 490,000 or 31 % ; 3 ) an insurance settlement net of litigation expenses recorded as other income of $ 1,626,000 ; 4 ) an increase in the gain from sale of income tax net operating losses of $ 1,496,000 or 109 % ; and 5 ) a

( i ) โ€“ recent accounting standards and pronouncements โ€ under notes to consolidated financial statements . disclosure about off-balance sheet arrangements none . critical accounting policies financial reporting release no . 60 requires all companies to include a discussion of critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of financial statements . our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to consolidated financial statements . the significant accounting policies that we believe are most critical to aid in fully understanding our reported financial results are the following : revenue the company has elected to apply the full retrospective application to implement the new revenue recognition standard asc 606. the company , based on the nature of its ampligen sales under its cost recovery programs , determined that there were no material differences between the new accounting standard and legacy gaap and that difficulties will not arise for any โ€œ open โ€ contract issues with its customers during the transition period . the company also determined that the adoption of this standard will have little or no impact to the company 's opening balance of retained earnings . revenue from the sale of ampligenยฎ under cost recovery clinical treatment protocols approved by the fda is recognized when the treatment is provided to the patient . revenues from the sale of product are recognized when the product is delivered , as title is then transferred to the customer . we have no other obligation associated with our products once shipment has been accepted by the customer inventories we use the lower of first-in , first-out ( โ€œ fifo โ€ ) cost and net realizable value method of accounting for inventory . 45 patents and trademarks patents and trademarks are stated at cost ( primarily legal fees ) and are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 17 years . we review our patents and trademark rights periodically to determine whether they have continuing value . such review includes an analysis of the patent and trademark 's ultimate revenue and profitability potential . in addition , management 's review addresses whether each patent continues to fit into our strategic business plans . long-lived assets we assess long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets or the asset grouping may not be recoverable . factors that we considers in deciding when to perform an impairment review include significant under-performance of a business or product line in relation to expectations , significant negative industry or economic trends , and significant changes or planned changes in its use of the assets . we measure the recoverability of assets that it will continue to use in its operations by comparing the carrying value of the asset grouping to our estimate of the related total future undiscounted net cash flows . if an asset grouping 's carrying value is not recoverable through the related undiscounted cash flows , the asset grouping is considered to be impaired . we measure the impairment by comparing the difference between the asset grouping 's carrying value and its fair value . long-lived assets are considered a non-financial asset and are recorded at fair value only if an impairment charge is recognized . impairments are determined for groups of assets related to the lowest level of identifiable independent cash flows . we make subjective judgments in determining the independent cash flows that can be related to specific asset groupings . in addition , as we review our manufacturing process and other manufacturing planning decisions , we must make subjective judgments regarding the remaining useful lives of assets . when we determine that the useful lives of assets are shorter than originally estimated , we accelerate the rate of depreciation over the assets ' new , shorter useful lives . stock-based compensation under fasb asc 718-compensation-stock compensation ( โ€œ asc 718 โ€ ) share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date , based on the estimated fair value of the award , and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period . we adopted the provisions of asc-718 , using a modified prospective application . under this method , compensation cost is recognized for all share-based payments granted , modified or settled after the date of adoption , as well as for any unvested awards that were granted prior to the date of adoption . the fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a black-scholes-merton pricing option valuation model . expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the price of our common stock . the risk-free interest rate is based on u.s. treasury issues with a term equal to the expected life of the option . we use historical data to estimate expected dividend yield , expected life , which represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding until they are exercised , and forfeiture rates . redeemable warrants we utilize the guidance contained in asc 480 ( formerly sfas 150 ) in the determination of whether to record warrants and options as equity and or liability . if the guidance of asc 480 is deemed inconclusive , we continue our analysis utilizing asc 815 ( formerly eitf 00-19 ) . our method of recording the related value attempts to be consistent with the standards as defined by the financial accounting standards board utilizing the concept of โ€œ fair value โ€ from asc 820-10-55-1 that states that any fair value measurement requires that the reporting entity , to determine the valuation technique ( s ) appropriate for the measurement , consider the availability of data with which to develop inputs that represent the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the inputs fall . 46 we recomputed the

respectively , representing a decrease in loss of approximately $ 7,728,000 or 51 % when compared to the same period in 2015. this decrease in loss for this year was primarily due to the following : 1 ) a decrease in research and development expense of $ 2,931,000 or 36 % ; 2 ) a decrease in production costs of approximately $ 490,000 or 31 % ; 3 ) an insurance settlement net of litigation expenses

and pronouncements โ€ under notes to consolidated financial statements . disclosure about off-balance sheet arrangements none . critical accounting policies financial reporting release no . 60 requires all companies to include a discussion of critical accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of financial statements . our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to consolidated financial statements . the significant accounting policies that we believe are most critical to aid in fully understanding our reported financial results are the following : revenue the company has elected to apply the full retrospective application to implement the new revenue recognition standard asc 606. the company , based on the nature of its ampligen sales under its cost recovery programs , determined that there were no material differences between the new accounting standard and legacy gaap and that difficulties will not arise for any โ€œ open โ€ contract issues with its customers during the transition period . the company also determined that the adoption of this standard will have little or no impact to the company 's opening balance of retained earnings . revenue from the sale of ampligenยฎ under cost recovery clinical treatment protocols approved by the fda is recognized when the treatment is provided to the patient . revenues from the sale of product are recognized when the product is delivered , as title is then transferred to the customer . we have no other obligation associated with our products once shipment has been accepted by the customer inventories we use the lower of first-in , first-out ( โ€œ fifo โ€ ) cost and net realizable value method of accounting for inventory . 45 patents and trademarks patents and trademarks are stated at cost ( primarily legal fees ) and are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 17 years . we review our patents and trademark rights periodically to determine whether they have continuing value . such review includes an analysis of the patent and trademark 's ultimate revenue and profitability potential . in addition , management 's review addresses whether each patent continues to fit into our strategic business plans . long-lived assets we assess long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets or the asset grouping may not be recoverable . factors that we considers in deciding when to perform an impairment review include significant under-performance of a business or product line in relation to expectations , significant negative industry or economic trends , and significant changes or planned changes in its use of the assets . we measure the recoverability of assets that it will continue to use in its operations by comparing the carrying value of the asset grouping to our estimate of the related total future undiscounted net cash flows . if an asset grouping 's carrying value is not recoverable through the related undiscounted cash flows , the asset grouping is considered to be impaired . we measure the impairment by comparing the difference between the asset grouping 's carrying value and its fair value . long-lived assets are considered a non-financial asset and are recorded at fair value only if an impairment charge is recognized . impairments are determined for groups of assets related to the lowest level of identifiable independent cash flows . we make subjective judgments in determining the independent cash flows that can be related to specific asset groupings . in addition , as we review our manufacturing process and other manufacturing planning decisions , we must make subjective judgments regarding the remaining useful lives of assets . when we determine that the useful lives of assets are shorter than originally estimated , we accelerate the rate of depreciation over the assets ' new , shorter useful lives . stock-based compensation under fasb asc 718-compensation-stock compensation ( โ€œ asc 718 โ€ ) share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date , based on the estimated fair value of the award , and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period . we adopted the provisions of asc-718 , using a modified prospective application . under this method , compensation cost is recognized for all share-based payments granted , modified or settled after the date of adoption , as well as for any unvested awards that were granted prior to the date of adoption . the fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a black-scholes-merton pricing option valuation model . expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the price of our common stock . the risk-free interest rate is based on u.s. treasury issues with a term equal to the expected life of the option . we use historical data to estimate expected dividend yield , expected life , which represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding until they are exercised , and forfeiture rates . redeemable warrants we utilize the guidance contained in asc 480 ( formerly sfas 150 ) in the determination of whether to record warrants and options as equity and or liability . if the guidance of asc 480 is deemed inconclusive , we continue our analysis utilizing asc 815 ( formerly eitf 00-19 ) . our method of recording the related value attempts to be consistent with the standards as defined by the financial accounting standards board utilizing the concept of โ€œ fair value โ€ from asc 820-10-55-1 that states that any fair value measurement requires that the reporting entity , to determine the valuation technique ( s ) appropriate for the measurement , consider the availability of data with which to develop inputs that represent the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the inputs fall . 46 we recomputed the

in addition to volumetric revenues , the revenue requirements approved by the cpuc include service charges , flat rate charges , and other items not subject to the wram . cost-recovery rates are designed to permit full recovery of certain costs allowed to be recovered by the commissions . cost-recovery rates such as the mcba provides for recovery of adopted expense levels for purchased water , purchased power and pump taxes , as established by the cpuc . in addition , cost-recovery rates include recovery of cost related to water conservation programs and certain other operating expenses adopted by the cpuc . variances ( which include the effects of changes in both rate and volume for the mcba ) between adopted and actual costs are recorded as a component of revenue , as the amount of such variances will 31 be recovered from or refunded to our customers at a later date . cost-recovery expenses are generally recognized when the expenses are incurred with no markup for return or profit . the balances in the wram and mcba assets and liabilities accounts will fluctuate on a monthly basis depending upon the variance between adopted and actual results . the recovery or refund of the wram is netted against the mcba over- or under-recovery for the corresponding district and the deferred net balances are interest bearing at the current 90 day commercial paper rate . at the end of the calendar year , cal water files with the cpuc to refund or collect the balance in the accounts . the majority of undercollected net wram and mcba receivable balances are collected over 12 and 18 months . cal water defers any net wram and mcba revenues and associated costs whenever the net receivable balances are estimated to be collected more than 24 months after the respective reporting period in which it was recorded . the deferred net wram and mcba revenue and associated costs were determined using forecasts of customer consumption trends in future reporting periods and the timing of when the cpuc will authorize cal water 's filings to recover unbilled balances . deferred revenues and associated costs are recorded in the periods when the collection is within 24 months of the respective reporting period . customers meter reads occur on various business days throughout the month . as a result , there are unmetered or unbilled customer usage each month . the estimated unbilled revenue for monthly unmetered customer usage is recorded using the number of unbilled days for that month and average daily customer billing rate for the previous month . the average daily customer billing rate for the previous month fluctuates depending on customer usage . estimated unbilled revenue is not included in the wram until it is billed . flat rate customers are billed in advance at the beginning of the service period . the revenue is prorated so that the portion of revenue applicable to the current period is included in that period 's revenue , with the balance recorded as unearned revenue on the balance sheet and recognized as revenue when earned in the subsequent accounting period . our unearned revenue liability was $ 1.3 million as of december 31 , 2015 and was $ 1.5 million as of december 31 , 2014. this liability is included in `` other accrued liabilities `` on our consolidated balance sheets . regulated utility accounting because we operate almost exclusively in a regulated business , we are subject to the accounting standards for regulated utilities . the commissions in the states in which we operate establish rates that are designed to permit the recovery of the cost of service and a return on investment . we capitalize and record regulatory assets for costs that would otherwise be charged to expense if it is probable that the incurred costs will be recovered in future rates . regulatory assets are amortized over the future periods that the costs are expected to be recovered . if costs expected to be incurred in the future are currently being recovered through rates , we record those expected future costs as regulatory liabilities . in addition , we record regulatory liabilities when the commissions require a refund to be made to our customers over future periods . determining probability requires significant judgment by management and includes , but is not limited to , consideration of testimony presented in regulatory hearings , proposed regulatory decisions , final regulatory orders , and the strength or status of applications for rehearing or state court appeals . we also record a regulatory asset when a mechanism is in place to recover current expenditures and historical experience indicates that recovery of incurred costs is probable , such as the regulatory assets for pension benefits ; and deferred income tax . if we determine that a portion of our assets used in utility operations is not recoverable in customer rates , we would be required to recognize the loss of the assets disallowed . income taxes we account for income taxes using the asset and liability method . deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis . we measure deferred tax assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled . we recognize the effect on the deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate in the period that includes the enactment date . we must also assess the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be recovered in future taxable income and , to the extent recovery is not probable , a valuation allowance would be recorded . story_separator_special_tag a small portion of supply comes from surface sources and is processed through company-owned water treatment plants . to the best of management 's knowledge , we are meeting water quality , environmental , and other regulatory standards for all company-owned systems . 37 california 's normal weather pattern yields little precipitation between mid-spring and mid-fall . the washington water service areas receive precipitation in all seasons , with the heaviest amounts during the winter . new mexico water 's rainfall is heaviest in the summer monsoon season . hawaii water receives precipitation throughout the year , with the largest amounts in the winter months . water usage in all service areas is highest during the warm and dry summers and declines in the cool winter months . rain and snow during the winter months replenish underground water aquifers and fill reservoirs , providing the water supply for subsequent delivery to customers . management believes that supply pumped from underground aquifers and purchased from wholesale suppliers will be adequate to meet customer demand during 2016 and beyond . however , water rationing may be required in future periods , if declared by the state or local jurisdictions . long-term water supply plans are developed for each of our districts to help assure an adequate water supply under various operating and supply conditions . some districts have unique challenges in meeting water quality standards , but management believes that supplies will meet current standards using current treatment processes . story_separator_special_tag style= `` line-height:120 % ;

capital resources cash flow from operations during 2015 , we generated cash flow from operations of $ 144.6 million , compared to $ 128.1 million during 2014. the increase in 2015 was mostly due to interim rates collections of $ 13.8 million as authorized by the cal water 2012 grc decision . during 2014 , we generated cash flow from operations of $ 128.1 million , compared to $ 124.2 million during 2013. the increase during 2014 compared to 2013 was mostly due a $ 6.0 million refund for 2013 calendar year federal and state income tax payments , higher billing rates in 2014 due to the cal water 2012 grc decision , timing of collections from customers , and the timing of liability payments also impacted the increase . the water business is seasonal . billed revenue is lower in the cool , wet winter months when less water is used compared to the warm , dry summer months when water use is highest . this seasonality results in the possible need for short-term borrowings under the bank lines of credit in the event cash is not sufficient to cover operating and capital costs during the winter period . the increase in cash flow during the summer allows short-term borrowings to be paid down . customer water usage can be lower than normal in years when more than normal precipitation falls in our service areas or temperatures are lower than normal , especially in the summer months . the reduction in water usage reduces cash flow from operations and increases the need for short-term bank borrowings . in addition , short-term borrowings are used to finance capital expenditures until long-term financing is arranged . investing activities during 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , we used $ 176.8 million , $ 132.0 million , and $ 123.0 million , respectively , of cash for capital expenditures , both company-funded and developer-funded . the 2015 capital expenditures exceeded the high end of the budgeted capital expenditures of $ 145.0 million . ``` Suspicious Activity Report : in addition to volumetric revenues , the revenue requirements approved by the cpuc include service charges , flat rate charges , and other items not subject to the wram . cost-recovery rates are designed to permit full recovery of certain costs allowed to be recovered by the commissions . cost-recovery rates such as the mcba provides for recovery of adopted expense levels for purchased water , purchased power and pump taxes , as established by the cpuc . in addition , cost-recovery rates include recovery of cost related to water conservation programs and certain other operating expenses adopted by the cpuc . variances ( which include the effects of changes in both rate and volume for the mcba ) between adopted and actual costs are recorded as a component of revenue , as the amount of such variances will 31 be recovered from or refunded to our customers at a later date . cost-recovery expenses are generally recognized when the expenses are incurred with no markup for return or profit . the balances in the wram and mcba assets and liabilities accounts will fluctuate on a monthly basis depending upon the variance between adopted and actual results . the recovery or refund of the wram is netted against the mcba over- or under-recovery for the corresponding district and the deferred net balances are interest bearing at the current 90 day commercial paper rate . at the end of the calendar year , cal water files with the cpuc to refund or collect the balance in the accounts . the majority of undercollected net wram and mcba receivable balances are collected over 12 and 18 months . cal water defers any net wram and mcba revenues and associated costs whenever the net receivable balances are estimated to be collected more than 24 months after the respective reporting period in which it was recorded . the deferred net wram and mcba revenue and associated costs were determined using forecasts of customer consumption trends in future reporting periods and the timing of when the cpuc will authorize cal water 's filings to recover unbilled balances . deferred revenues and associated costs are recorded in the periods when the collection is within 24 months of the respective reporting period . customers meter reads occur on various business days throughout the month . as a result , there are unmetered or unbilled customer usage each month . the estimated unbilled revenue for monthly unmetered customer usage is recorded using the number of unbilled days for that month and average daily customer billing rate for the previous month . the average daily customer billing rate for the previous month fluctuates depending on customer usage . estimated unbilled revenue is not included in the wram until it is billed . flat rate customers are billed in advance at the beginning of the service period . the revenue is prorated so that the portion of revenue applicable to the current period is included in that period 's revenue , with the balance recorded as unearned revenue on the balance sheet and recognized as revenue when earned in the subsequent accounting period . our unearned revenue liability was $ 1.3 million as of december 31 , 2015 and was $ 1.5 million as of december 31 , 2014. this liability is included in `` other accrued liabilities `` on our consolidated balance sheets . regulated utility accounting because we operate almost exclusively in a regulated business , we are subject to the accounting standards for regulated utilities . the commissions in the states in which we operate establish rates that are designed to permit the recovery of the cost of service and a return on investment . we capitalize and record regulatory assets for costs that would otherwise be charged to expense if it is probable that the incurred costs will be recovered in future rates . regulatory assets are amortized over the future periods that the costs are expected to be recovered . if costs expected to be incurred in the future are currently being recovered through rates , we record those expected future costs as regulatory liabilities . in addition , we record regulatory liabilities when the commissions require a refund to be made to our customers over future periods . determining probability requires significant judgment by management and includes , but is not limited to , consideration of testimony presented in regulatory hearings , proposed regulatory decisions , final regulatory orders , and the strength or status of applications for rehearing or state court appeals . we also record a regulatory asset when a mechanism is in place to recover current expenditures and historical experience indicates that recovery of incurred costs is probable , such as the regulatory assets for pension benefits ; and deferred income tax . if we determine that a portion of our assets used in utility operations is not recoverable in customer rates , we would be required to recognize the loss of the assets disallowed . income taxes we account for income taxes using the asset and liability method . deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis . we measure deferred tax assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled . we recognize the effect on the deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate in the period that includes the enactment date . we must also assess the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be recovered in future taxable income and , to the extent recovery is not probable , a valuation allowance would be recorded . story_separator_special_tag a small portion of supply comes from surface sources and is processed through company-owned water treatment plants . to the best of management 's knowledge , we are meeting water quality , environmental , and other regulatory standards for all company-owned systems . 37 california 's normal weather pattern yields little precipitation between mid-spring and mid-fall . the washington water service areas receive precipitation in all seasons , with the heaviest amounts during the winter . new mexico water 's rainfall is heaviest in the summer monsoon season . hawaii water receives precipitation throughout the year , with the largest amounts in the winter months . water usage in all service areas is highest during the warm and dry summers and declines in the cool winter months . rain and snow during the winter months replenish underground water aquifers and fill reservoirs , providing the water supply for subsequent delivery to customers . management believes that supply pumped from underground aquifers and purchased from wholesale suppliers will be adequate to meet customer demand during 2016 and beyond . however , water rationing may be required in future periods , if declared by the state or local jurisdictions . long-term water supply plans are developed for each of our districts to help assure an adequate water supply under various operating and supply conditions . some districts have unique challenges in meeting water quality standards , but management believes that supplies will meet current standards using current treatment processes . story_separator_special_tag style= `` line-height:120 % ; padding-bottom:10px ; padding-top:10px ; text-align : justify ; text-indent:32px ;

network services will be marketed through both our crexendo business solutions and storesonline divisions . no revenue was generated from our crexendo network services division for the year ended june 30 , 2009. reduction in staff in december 2007 , we reduced the number of workshop teams from nine to six and reduced our total employee base by 20 % in an effort to streamline the launch of storesonline express , visit targeted markets less frequently to cultivate greater demand , and reduce overall company expenses . in january 2009 , we reduced the number of workshop teams from six to four and reduced our total employee base by 20 % in response to current market conditions and our increased focus on the small to medium enterprise market . critical accounting policies and estimates our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with us gaap and form the basis for the following discussion and analysis on critical accounting policies and estimates . the preparation of these financial statements requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets , liabilities , revenues and expenses , and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities . on a regular basis we evaluate our estimates and assumptions . estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances , which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources . actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions . management has discussed the development , selection and disclosure of these estimates with the board of directors and its audit committee . a summary of our significant accounting policies is provided in note 2 to our consolidated financial statements . we believe the critical accounting policies and estimates described below reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements . the impact and any associated risks on our business that are related to these policies are also discussed throughout this ย“management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operationsย” where such policies affect reported and expected financial results . revenue recognition the company sells licenses to customers to use the company 's storesonline software ( sos ) . the sos is a web-based software product that enables customers to develop internet websites for commerce without requiring additional assistance from the company , if the customers desire . when customers purchase an sos license at one of the company 's internet preview seminars or workshops , they receive a license , site key , password , and instructions which allow immediate access to the company 's website and servers where all of the necessary software programs and tools are located to be downloaded or to complete the construction of their websites on the company 's servers . additionally , the company provides website setup services and customer support for incremental fees . when customers complete their websites , those websites can be hosted with the company or any other provider of such services at the customers ' option . if the customers choose to host with the company , the company will host the websites for an additional fee . customers have the option to create their websites completely on their own without access to the company website and the option to host their websites with another hosting service . the company also sells website design services , search engine optimization and search engine management services through the crexendo business solutions platform . revenue for these services is recognized , net of expected refunds , when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists , work has been completed , the fee is fixed or determinable , and collectability is probable . product and other revenue cash sales of sos licenses are recognized as revenue , net of expected customer refunds , upon expiration of the customers ' rescission period , which typically occurs three days after the licenses and products are delivered or when the internet training workshop takes place , whichever occurs later . fees for sos licenses sold under extended payment term arrangements ( eptas ) are recognized as revenue upon receipt of cash from customers and not at the time of sale . story_separator_special_tag trends in cost of product and other revenue will not always be consistent with the trends in revenue due to the fact that cost of product and other revenue is typically recognized at the time of sale and no later than the expiration of the customers ' three-day cancellation period , but the related revenue is often deferred in accordance with sop 97-2. selling and marketing selling and marketing expenses consist of payroll and related expenses for sales and marketing activities , advertising , and promotional and public relations expenses . selling and marketing expenses for fiscal 2008 increased 18 % to $ 69,787,000 from $ 66,744,000 for fiscal 2007. the increase in selling and marketing expenses is primarily attributable to lower response rates to our selling and marketing activities due to negative economic conditions as well as negative media reports about the company . additionally , salaries and wages increased over fiscal 2007 despite a decrease in sales due to larger preview sales teams as a result of the implementation of storesonline express during the third quarter of fiscal 2008. increases in postage on the company 's direct mail materials also caused an increase in advertising expense . selling and marketing expenses were also negatively impacted by increased travel costs associated with higher fuel prices . trends in selling and marketing expenses will not always be consistent with the trends in revenues due to the fact that selling and marketing expenses are typically recognized when incurred , at the time of sale , and no later than the expiration of the customers ' three-day cancellation period , but the related revenues are often deferred in accordance with sop 97-2 . 26 general and administrative general and administrative expenses consist of payroll and related expenses for executive , accounting and administrative personnel ; legal , accounting and other professional fees , finance company service fees , and other general corporate expenses . general and administrative expenses in fiscal 2008 increased 18 % to $ 18,210,000 from $ 15,480,000 in fiscal 2007. the increase in general and administrative expenses during fiscal 2008 is primarily attributable to an increase in legal fees of $ 900,000 associated with various legal actions and an increase in financial servicing fees of $ 1,119,000 as a result of higher collections of accounts receivable . the balance of the increase in general and administrative expenses is the result of the general increase in costs for items such as insurance , rent , telephone , office supplies and other expenses . interest income interest income is primarily derived from the epta contracts , which generally carry an 18 % simple interest rate . interest income for fiscal 2008 increased 25 % to $ 8,858,000 compared to $ 7,079,000 for fiscal 2007. the increase is attributable to the increase in the collections of trade receivables . income tax provision during fiscal 2008 , we recorded an income tax provision of $ 3,039,000 compared to $ 2,686,000 during fiscal 2007. income taxes are based on the estimated annual effective federal , state and foreign income tax rates . the income tax provision recorded in fiscal 2008 is higher than federal , state , and foreign statutory rates as a result of changes in estimates of state net operating loss apportionments and as a result of stock-based compensation expense for incentive stock options which is not deductible for income tax purposes . in december 2005 , we determined that it was more-likely-than-not that $ 11,877,000 of our net deferred income tax assets would be realized . due to our increased taxable earnings projections and discrete event developments in the resolution of certain contingencies during fiscal 2007 , we determined that it was more-likely-than-not that our remaining deferred income tax assets of $ 7,746,000 would be realized . the benefit resulting from the removal of the corresponding valuation allowance was offset by an income tax provision of $ 10,432,000 , resulting in a net income tax provision of $ 2,686,000 during fiscal 2007. liquidity and capital resources as of june 30 , 2009 , we had working capital of $ 16,337,000 compared to working capital of $ 20,558,000 as of june 30 , 2008. as of june 30 , 2009 , we had working capital , excluding deferred revenue , of $ 39,964,000 compared to $ 53,417,000 as of june 30 , 2008. deferred revenue balances represent historical sales for which the company can not immediately recognize revenue . the costs and expenses we incur as these deferred revenue amounts are recognized as product and other revenues are expected to be insignificant . consequently , we do not consider deferred revenue to be a factor that impacts our liquidity or future cash requirements . story_separator_special_tag style= `` margin-top:7.8px ; margin-bottom:7.8px ; text-indent:48px `` > recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted in

our oraquick ยฎ hcv test in the united states . the product is used to test individuals at-risk for the hepatitis c virus . we are responsible for manufacturing and selling the product into all markets covered by the agreement . pursuant to the agreement , we have granted exclusive co-promotion rights for the oraquick ยฎ hcv test in certain markets to abbvie and will provide certain additional services in support of hcv testing . in exchange for these exclusive rights and other services which we will provide to abbvie , we are eligible to receive up to $ 75.0 million in aggregate payments over the term of the agreement , which runs through december 31 , 2019. we plan to recognize the payments ratably on a monthly basis over the life of the agreement . the first $ 15.0 million payment was received in july 2014 and as of december 31 , 2014 , we recognized $ 7.6 million in revenues . in addition , if certain performance-based milestones are achieved , we will be eligible to receive additional payments annually , ranging from $ 3.5 to $ 55.5 million over the life of the agreement , beginning in 2015. the agreement also contains certain termination , indemnification and other provisions typical of agreements of this type . payments received under this agreement will be recorded as licensing and product development revenue in our statements of operations . during the second half of 2014 , we began three initiatives under the co-promotion agreement , each with the intent of increasing hcv awareness and making our oraquick ยฎ hcv test and abbvie 's patient support program widely available to patients . the first initiative focuses on primary care and specialty physicians . in august 2014 , abbvie began detailing our oraquick ยฎ hcv test to physicians and we commenced a comprehensive product training program for these customers . as a result of these efforts , hundreds of physician offices have indicated an interest in our product . we have also developed a patient care database and limited co-insurance reimbursement program for use in connection with this and the other initiatives under the agreement . the second initiative targets employers or employer groups with employees that are at high risk for hcv . our initial focus has been on commercial long-haul truck drivers . we intend to continue promoting the use of our test through health and wellness providers who serve professional truckers . a third initiative is to focus on national retail pharmacies and retail clinics . we and abbvie have initiated discussions with several major retail pharmacies about increasing awareness and making our oraquick ยฎ hcv test and abbvie 's patient support program available through retail outlets . although we expect the abbvie agreement to benefit our oraquick ยฎ hcv business , it is difficult to predict when , or if , we will be able to achieve our objectives under the agreement , including receipt of one or more performance fees . if we fail to do so , or if the agreement is terminated early , the level of compensation we receive would be reduced and our financial results and business prospects could be adversely affected . launch of the next generation intercept ยฎ collection device we have completed development of a our second generation intercept i2 ย™ oral specimen collection device . in july 2014 , we commercially launched the new device into the u.s. criminal justice and forensic toxicology markets and into certain international markets . a generic version of this device is also sold , primarily to laboratories for validation studies . 56 drugs-of-abuse assay agreement we continue to make progress under our agreement with thermo fisher to develop and supply homogenous fully-automated oral fluid drugs of abuse assays to be used with our new intercept i2 ย™ collection device . in the fourth quarter of 2014 , six high-throughput , fully-automated oral fluid assays were launched into the u.s criminal justice and forensic toxicology markets , consisting of a nida-5 panel for detection of amphetamines , methamphetamines , cocaine , opiates , pcp and thc , or marijuana . six additional assays are expected to launch in 2015. as a result of this progress , in late june 2014 we issued our final purchase order for fully-automated assays developed under our terminated agreement with roche diagnostics ( ย“rocheย” ) . pursuant to the terms of the termination agreement with roche , we received $ 5.5 million as a result of the submission of our final purchase order . this payment was recorded as a reduction of operating expense in our consolidated statement of operations . rapid ebola test in 2014 , we began efforts to develop and commercialize a rapid , point-of-care antigen test for the ebola virus , using our oraquick ยฎ technology platform . we have achieved significant development and clinical milestones for this product and we are close to finalizing the design of a prototype device . story_separator_special_tag general and administrative expenses increased 13 % to $ 20.6 million in 2014 from $ 18.2 million in 2013 due to higher legal , staffing and consulting expenses . 62 all of the above , along with the $ 5.5 million contract termination payment from roche , contributed to osur 's operating loss of $ 8.3 million for 2014 , which included non-cash charges of $ 3.3 million for depreciation and amortization and $ 5.3 million for stock-based compensation . dnag segment dnag 's gross margin was 73 % in 2014 compared to 67 % in 2013. this improvement was primarily attributable to an increased volume of higher margin sales experienced in 2014 when compared to 2013. dnag operating expenses rose to $ 13.7 million in 2014 from $ 13.0 million in 2013. research and development expenses remained relatively flat at $ 2.6 million in 2014 and 2013. sales and marketing expenses increased 14 % to $ 8.0 million in 2014 from $ 7.0 million in 2013 largely due to higher staffing and consulting costs . general and administrative expenses decreased 9 % to $ 3.1 million in 2014 from $ 3.4 million in 2013 largely due to lower legal fees . all of the above contributed to dnag 's operating income of $ 3.5 million for 2014 , which included non-cash charges of $ 3.1 million for depreciation and amortization and $ 432,000 for stock-based compensation . consolidated income taxes we continue to believe the full valuation allowance established in 2008 against osur 's total u.s. net deferred tax asset is appropriate as the facts and circumstances necessitating the allowance have not changed . as a result , no u.s. income tax benefit was recorded for osur 's pre-tax loss in 2014 or 2013. for the year ended december 31 , 2014 , we recorded canadian income tax expense of $ 343,000. for the year ended december 31 , 2013 , we recorded a canadian income tax benefit of $ 772,000 which was associated with certain canadian research and development and investment tax credits . the canadian income tax benefit was considered realizable based upon the scheduled reversal of the deferred tax liabilities recorded in connection with the acquisition of dnag . year

revenues generated by licensing and product development activities ( dollars in thousands ) . replace_table_token_10_th consolidated net revenues increased 13 % to $ 98.9 million in 2013 from $ 87.8 million in 2012. net product revenues increased 15 % during the year ended december 31 , 2013 when compared to the year ended 63 december 31 , 2012 , primarily as a result of higher sales of our infectious disease testing and molecular collection systems products . these increases were partially offset by lower sales of our substance abuse testing , insurance risk assessment and cryosurgical systems products . licensing and product development revenues decreased in the current year compared to the prior year primarily as a result of the absence of a $ 1.0 million milestone payment received in the first quarter of 2012 related to the achievement of certain regulatory and commercial objectives pursuant to the terms of our hcv agreement with merck . no similar payment was received during 2013 because the agreement with merck was terminated in november 2012. consolidated net revenues derived from products sold to customers outside the u.s. were $ 21.7 million and $ 20.3 million , or 22 % and 23 % of consolidated net revenues for the years ended december 31 , 2013 and 2012 , respectively . because the majority of our international sales are denominated in u.s. dollars , the

capital resources replace_table_token_15_th our cash and short-term investment balances increased to $ 97.9 million at december 31 , 2014 from $ 93.2 million at december 31 , 2013. our working capital increased to $ 104.8 million at december 31 , 2014 from $ 100.6 million at december 31 , 2013. during 2014 , we generated $ 7.5 million in cash from our operating activities . our net loss of $ 4.6 million was offset by non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $ 5.7 million , depreciation and amortization expense of $ 6.3 million , an unrealized foreign currency gain of $ 305,000 , and deferred income tax expense of $ 294,000. an increase in deferred revenue of $ 6.9 million also contributed to the cash generated during the year . the deferred revenue increase is related to the receipt of $ 15.0 million from abbvie in july 2014 , reduced by the amount ratably recognized in revenue during the year . also contributing to the increase in cash was an increase in accounts payable of $ 2.2 million largely associated with expenses related to the abbvie agreement , and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $ 475,000. these increases in cash were partially offset by a $ 4.4 million increase in inventory associated with our oraquick ยฎ hcv product , a $ 3.4 million increase in accounts receivable resulting from the increase and timing of sales at dnag , and a $ 1.7 million decrease in accrued expenses largely associated with a decrease in our royalty obligations . we used a net amount of $ 8.0 million in investing activities during 2014 to purchase $ 9.4 million in short-term investments and $ 3.0 million to acquire property and equipment . these payments were offset by proceeds received from the maturities of short-term investments of $ 4.4 million . during the year ended december 31 , 2015 , we expect to invest approximately $ 4.0 million in capital expenditures , primarily to purchase additional manufacturing equipment , upgrade certain older equipment and make improvements to our facilities . ``` Suspicious Activity Report : in addition , our current period loss includes a $ 5.5 million gain ( recorded as a reduction to operating expenses ) for a final 55 settlement payment received for the termination of our assay agreement with roche diagnostics . this compares to an $ 8.3 million gain recorded in 2013 for the initial settlement payment received pursuant to the same termination agreement . cash provided by operating activities for the year ended december 31 , 2014 was $ 7.5 million , compared to $ 8.4 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013. as of december 31 , 2014 , we had $ 97.9 million in cash and short term investments compared to $ 93.2 million at december 31 , 2013 . 2014 developments hcv co-promotion initiatives on june 10 , 2014 , we entered into an agreement with abbvie to co-promote our oraquick ยฎ hcv test in the united states . the product is used to test individuals at-risk for the hepatitis c virus . we are responsible for manufacturing and selling the product into all markets covered by the agreement . pursuant to the agreement , we have granted exclusive co-promotion rights for the oraquick ยฎ hcv test in certain markets to abbvie and will provide certain additional services in support of hcv testing . in exchange for these exclusive rights and other services which we will provide to abbvie , we are eligible to receive up to $ 75.0 million in aggregate payments over the term of the agreement , which runs through december 31 , 2019. we plan to recognize the payments ratably on a monthly basis over the life of the agreement . the first $ 15.0 million payment was received in july 2014 and as of december 31 , 2014 , we recognized $ 7.6 million in revenues . in addition , if certain performance-based milestones are achieved , we will be eligible to receive additional payments annually , ranging from $ 3.5 to $ 55.5 million over the life of the agreement , beginning in 2015. the agreement also contains certain termination , indemnification and other provisions typical of agreements of this type . payments received under this agreement will be recorded as licensing and product development revenue in our statements of operations . during the second half of 2014 , we began three initiatives under the co-promotion agreement , each with the intent of increasing hcv awareness and making our oraquick ยฎ hcv test and abbvie 's patient support program widely available to patients . the first initiative focuses on primary care and specialty physicians . in august 2014 , abbvie began detailing our oraquick ยฎ hcv test to physicians and we commenced a comprehensive product training program for these customers . as a result of these efforts , hundreds of physician offices have indicated an interest in our product . we have also developed a patient care database and limited co-insurance reimbursement program for use in connection with this and the other initiatives under the agreement . the second initiative targets employers or employer groups with employees that are at high risk for hcv . our initial focus has been on commercial long-haul truck drivers . we intend to continue promoting the use of our test through health and wellness providers who serve professional truckers . a third initiative is to focus on national retail pharmacies and retail clinics . we and abbvie have initiated discussions with several major retail pharmacies about increasing awareness and making our oraquick ยฎ hcv test and abbvie 's patient support program available through retail outlets . although we expect the abbvie agreement to benefit our oraquick ยฎ hcv business , it is difficult to predict when , or if , we will be able to achieve our objectives under the agreement , including receipt of one or more performance fees . if we fail to do so , or if the agreement is terminated early , the level of compensation we receive would be reduced and our financial results and business prospects could be adversely affected . launch of the next generation intercept ยฎ collection device we have completed development of a our second generation intercept i2 ย™ oral specimen collection device . in july 2014 , we commercially launched the new device into the u.s. criminal justice and forensic toxicology markets and into certain international markets . a generic version of this device is also sold , primarily to laboratories for validation studies . 56 drugs-of-abuse assay agreement we continue to make progress under our agreement with thermo fisher to develop and supply homogenous fully-automated oral fluid drugs of abuse assays to be used with our new intercept i2 ย™ collection device . in the fourth quarter of 2014 , six high-throughput , fully-automated oral fluid assays were launched into the u.s criminal justice and forensic toxicology markets , consisting of a nida-5 panel for detection of amphetamines , methamphetamines , cocaine , opiates , pcp and thc , or marijuana . six additional assays are expected to launch in 2015. as a result of this progress , in late june 2014 we issued our final purchase order for fully-automated assays developed under our terminated agreement with roche diagnostics ( ย“rocheย” ) . pursuant to the terms of the termination agreement with roche , we received $ 5.5 million as a result of the submission of our final purchase order . this payment was recorded as a reduction of operating expense in our consolidated statement of operations . rapid ebola test in 2014 , we began efforts to develop and commercialize a rapid , point-of-care antigen test for the ebola virus , using our oraquick ยฎ technology platform . we have achieved significant development and clinical milestones for this product and we are close to finalizing the design of a prototype device . story_separator_special_tag general and administrative expenses increased 13 % to $ 20.6 million in 2014 from $ 18.2 million in 2013 due to higher legal , staffing and consulting expenses . 62 all of the above , along with the $ 5.5 million contract termination payment from roche , contributed to osur 's operating loss of $ 8.3 million for 2014 , which included non-cash charges of $ 3.3 million for depreciation and amortization and $ 5.3 million for stock-based compensation . dnag segment dnag 's gross margin was 73 % in 2014 compared to 67 % in 2013. this improvement was primarily attributable to an increased volume of higher margin sales experienced in 2014 when compared to 2013. dnag operating expenses rose to $ 13.7 million in 2014 from $ 13.0 million in 2013. research and development expenses remained relatively flat at $ 2.6 million in 2014 and 2013. sales and marketing expenses increased 14 % to $ 8.0 million in 2014 from $ 7.0 million in 2013 largely due to higher staffing and consulting costs . general and administrative expenses decreased 9 % to $ 3.1 million in 2014 from $ 3.4 million in 2013 largely due to lower legal fees . all of the above contributed to dnag 's operating income of $ 3.5 million for 2014 , which included non-cash charges of $ 3.1 million for depreciation and amortization and $ 432,000 for stock-based compensation . consolidated income taxes we continue to believe the full valuation allowance established in 2008 against osur 's total u.s. net deferred tax asset is appropriate as the facts and circumstances necessitating the allowance have not changed . as a result , no u.s. income tax benefit was recorded for osur 's pre-tax loss in 2014 or 2013. for the year ended december 31 , 2014 , we recorded canadian income tax expense of $ 343,000. for the year ended december 31 , 2013 , we recorded a canadian income tax benefit of $ 772,000 which was associated with certain canadian research and development and investment tax credits . the canadian income tax benefit was considered realizable based upon the scheduled reversal of the deferred tax liabilities recorded in connection with the acquisition of dnag . year ended december 31 , 2013 compared to december 31 , 2012 consolidated net revenues the table below shows the amount of total net

december 31 , 2012 , primarily as a result of higher sales of our infectious disease testing and molecular collection systems products . these increases were partially offset by lower sales of our substance abuse testing , insurance risk assessment and cryosurgical systems products . licensing and product development revenues decreased in the current year compared to the prior year primarily as a result of the absence of a $ 1.0 million milestone payment received in the first quarter of 2012 related to the achievement of certain regulatory and commercial objectives pursuant to the terms of our hcv agreement with merck . no similar payment was received during 2013 because the agreement with merck was terminated in november 2012. consolidated net revenues derived from products sold to customers outside the u.s. were $ 21.7 million and $ 20.3 million , or 22 % and 23 % of consolidated net revenues for the years ended december 31 , 2013 and 2012 , respectively . because the majority of our international sales are denominated in u.s. dollars , the impact of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates was not material to our total net revenues . net revenues by segment osur segment

financial statements . during fiscal 2019 , other than changes related to revenue recognition , there were no material changes to these policies . our more critical accounting estimates are described below : revenue recognition : asu 2014-09 , topic 606 , which was adopted at the beginning of fiscal 2019 , resulted in a change to the timing of revenue recognition for a significant portion of the company 's revenue , whereby revenue is now recognized over time as products are produced , as opposed to at a point in time based upon shipping terms . since adopting the standard , revenue is recognized over time for arrangements with customers for which : ( i ) the company 's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the company , and ( ii ) the company has an enforceable right to payment , including a reasonable profit margin , for performance completed to date . revenue recognized over time is estimated based on costs incurred to date plus a reasonable profit margin . if either of the two conditions noted above are not met to recognize revenue over time , revenue is recognized following the transfer of control of such products to the customer , which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery depending on the terms of the underlying arrangement . the company recognizes revenue when a contract exists and when , or as , it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a product or service to a customer . contracts are accounted for when they have approval and commitment from both parties , the rights of the parties are identified , payment terms are identified , the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable . a performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer . the company generally enters into a master services arrangement that establishes the framework under which business will be conducted . these arrangements represent the master terms and conditions of the company 's services that apply to individual orders , but they do not commit the customer to work with , or to continue to work with , the company nor do they obligate the customer to any specific volume or pricing of purchases . moreover , these terms can be amended in appropriate situations . customer purchase orders are received for specific quantities with predominantly fixed pricing and delivery requirements . thus , for the majority of our contracts , there is no guarantee of any revenue to the company until a customer submits a purchase order . as a result , the company generally considers its arrangement with a customer to be the combination of the master services arrangement and the purchase order . most of the company 's arrangements with customers create a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual manufactured product or service is capable of being distinct . the company 's performance obligations are satisfied over time as work progresses or at a point in time . a performance obligation is satisfied over time if the company has an enforceable right to payment , including a reasonable profit margin . determining if an enforceable right to payment includes a reasonable profit margin requires judgment and is assessed on a contract by contract basis . if an enforceable right to payment for work-in-process does not exist , revenue is recognized following the transfer of control of such products to the customer , which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery depending on the terms of the underlying contract . for contracts requiring over time revenue recognition , the selection of the method to measure progress towards completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products or services to be

component costs . as compared to fiscal 2018 , the increase in cost of sales in fiscal 2019 was primarily driven by the increase in net sales and increased fixed costs to support program ramps . partially offsetting the increase was a positive shift in customer mix and the $ 13.5 million one-time employee bonus ( the `` one-time employee bonus `` ) that was paid during fiscal 2018 , of which

changes related to revenue recognition , there were no material changes to these policies . our more critical accounting estimates are described below : revenue recognition : asu 2014-09 , topic 606 , which was adopted at the beginning of fiscal 2019 , resulted in a change to the timing of revenue recognition for a significant portion of the company 's revenue , whereby revenue is now recognized over time as products are produced , as opposed to at a point in time based upon shipping terms . since adopting the standard , revenue is recognized over time for arrangements with customers for which : ( i ) the company 's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the company , and ( ii ) the company has an enforceable right to payment , including a reasonable profit margin , for performance completed to date . revenue recognized over time is estimated based on costs incurred to date plus a reasonable profit margin . if either of the two conditions noted above are not met to recognize revenue over time , revenue is recognized following the transfer of control of such products to the customer , which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery depending on the terms of the underlying arrangement . the company recognizes revenue when a contract exists and when , or as , it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a product or service to a customer . contracts are accounted for when they have approval and commitment from both parties , the rights of the parties are identified , payment terms are identified , the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable . a performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer . the company generally enters into a master services arrangement that establishes the framework under which business will be conducted . these arrangements represent the master terms and conditions of the company 's services that apply to individual orders , but they do not commit the customer to work with , or to continue to work with , the company nor do they obligate the customer to any specific volume or pricing of purchases . moreover , these terms can be amended in appropriate situations . customer purchase orders are received for specific quantities with predominantly fixed pricing and delivery requirements . thus , for the majority of our contracts , there is no guarantee of any revenue to the company until a customer submits a purchase order . as a result , the company generally considers its arrangement with a customer to be the combination of the master services arrangement and the purchase order . most of the company 's arrangements with customers create a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the individual manufactured product or service is capable of being distinct . the company 's performance obligations are satisfied over time as work progresses or at a point in time . a performance obligation is satisfied over time if the company has an enforceable right to payment , including a reasonable profit margin . determining if an enforceable right to payment includes a reasonable profit margin requires judgment and is assessed on a contract by contract basis . if an enforceable right to payment for work-in-process does not exist , revenue is recognized following the transfer of control of such products to the customer , which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery depending on the terms of the underlying contract . for contracts requiring over time revenue recognition , the selection of the method to measure progress towards completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products or services to be

forecasting purposes , to evaluate its ongoing operations , and to evaluate the ultimate performance of management and each business unit against plan/forecast all the way up through the evaluation of the chief executive officer 's performance by the board of directors . in addition , these same non-gaap measures are used in determining incentive compensation for the entire management team and in providing earnings guidance to the investing community . sonoco management does not , nor does it suggest that investors should , consider these non-gaap financial measures in isolation from , or as a substitute for , financial information prepared in accordance with gaap . sonoco presents these non-gaap financial measures to provide users information to evaluate sonoco 's operating results in a manner similar to how management evaluates business performance . material limitations associated with the use of such measures are that they do not reflect all period costs included in operating expenses and may not reflect financial results that are comparable to financial results of other companies that present similar costs differently . furthermore , the calculations of these non-gaap measures are based on subjective determinations of management regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances that the investor may find material and view differently . to compensate for these limitations , management believes that it is useful in understanding and analyzing the results of the business to review both gaap information which includes all of the items impacting financial results and the non-gaap measures that exclude certain elements , as described above . restructuring and restructuring-related asset impairment charges are a recurring item as sonoco 's restructuring programs usually require several years to fully implement and the company is continually seeking to take actions that could enhance its efficiency . although recurring , these charges are subject to significant fluctuations from period to period due to the varying levels of restructuring activity and the inherent imprecision in the estimates used to recognize the impairment of assets and the wide variety of costs and taxes associated with severance and termination benefits in the countries in which the restructuring actions occur . reconciliations of gaap to base results are presented on page 22 in conjunction with management 's discussion and analysis of the company 's results of operations . whenever reviewing a non-gaap financial measure , readers are encouraged to review the related reconciliation to fully understand how it differs from the related gaap measure . reconciliations are not provided for non-gaap measures related to future years due to the likely occurrence of one or more of the following , the timing and magnitude of which management is unable to reliably forecast : possible gains or losses on the sale of businesses or other assets , restructuring costs and restructuring-related impairment charges , acquisition-related form 10-k 18 sonoco 2016 annual report costs , and the tax effect of these items and or other income tax-related events . these items could have a significant impact on the company 's future gaap financial results . 2016 overview and 2017 outlook despite low growth rates in many of the company 's served markets and headwinds stemming from the continued strength of the u.s. dollar , sonoco reported solid results in 2016 , posting year-over-year improvements in all of our segments . operating profit in the consumer packaging segment improved $ 9.3 million , or 4 percent , year-over-year . although the operating profit improvement was lower in dollar terms , our protective solutions and display and packaging segments both posted double digit percentage growth in operating profits year over year . on a company-wide basis , gains from a positive overall price/cost relationship ( the relationship of the change in sales prices to the change in costs of materials , energy and freight ) , manufacturing productivity improvements and the benefit of lower pension expense were only somewhat offset by volume/mix , higher labor , maintenance and other operating costs , and the impact of foreign currency translation . as a result , consolidated gross profit margin for 2016 improved to 19.6 % compared to 18.7 % in 2015. current year net income attributable to sonoco ( gaap earnings ) improved $ 36.3 million year over year , or 14.5 % , and includes a $ 104.3 million net gain , $ 49.3 million after tax , related to the sale of the company 's rigid plastics blow molding operations . base earnings for the current year , which excludes this gain as well as certain other items of income and expense

20.6 million , or 8.0 % , year over year . key expectations for 2016 were that overall volumes would increase by around 2 % , price/cost would be relatively flat , productivity would be strong enough to more than offset the expected inflation in labor and other costs , and there would be a benefit from lower pension and post-retirement expense . story_separator_special_tag replace_table_token_6_th

earnings reflect a net after-tax benefit of $ 9.2 million , consisting of the gain from the disposal of the company 's rigid plastics blow molding operations , partially offset by restructuring costs , asset impairment charges , acquisition-related expenses , and foreign income tax losses related to rate adjustments . net income in 2015 was negatively impacted by net after-tax charge of $ 6.5 million consisting of restructuring costs , asset impairment charges , legal and professional fees associated with the company 's investigation of financial misstatements in mexico , acquisition-related expenses , and excess executive life insurance expenses , partially offset by gains related to the final settlement of certain of the fox river environmental claims and income tax gains from the release of valuation allowances against certain net deferred tax assets . base earnings in 2016 were $ 277.2 million ( $ 2.72 per diluted share ) , compared with $ 256.7 million ( $ 2.51 per diluted share ) in 2015. both gaap and base earnings benefitted from a positive price/cost relationship , total productivity improvements and lower pension expense . these favorable factors were partially offset by volume declines , particularly in rigid paper north america , higher overhead , management incentive and other operating costs , and unfavorable changes in foreign currency translation . the effective tax rate on gaap earnings was 37.3 % , compared with 26.8 % in 2015 , and the effective tax rate on base earnings was 30.6 % , compared with 31.0 % in 2015. the main drivers of the unfavorable change in the rate on gaap earnings include taxes on the gain related to the current-year disposal of the rigid plastics blow molding operations and prior year income tax benefits related to the release of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets in certain international jurisdictions . the effective tax rate on base earnings was essentially flat year over year . consolidated net sales for 2016 were $ 4.8 billion , a $ 181 million , or 3.7 % , decrease from 2015. the components of the sales change were : ( $ in millions ) volume/mix $ 6 selling price ( 25 ) acquisitions and divestitures , net ( 25 ) foreign currency translation and other , net ( 137 ) total sales decrease $ ( 181 ) in order to enhance the meaningfulness of reported changes in volume/mix , a $ 63.7 million reduction in packaging center sales resulting from changes in the level of activity , primarily from the previously reported loss of contract packaging business in irapuato , mexico , is classified above as ย“otherย” due to the low/inconsistent correlation that typically exists between changes in revenue and changes in operating profit in our packaging center operations . sales volume/mix was essentially flat as organic volume growth and a favorable change in product mix in a number of our businesses offset volume declines in rigid paper containers . for the most part , price changes for the company 's products were driven by changes in the underlying raw materials costs . in 2016 , many of the company 's primary raw materials saw decreases in their market prices ; however , old corrugated containers ( occ ) saw a moderate increase year over year . this increase most directly affected the paper and industrial converted products segment while the decrease in other raw materials , mainly resins , most directly affected the consumer packaging segment . while the company 's 2016 and 2015 acquisitions added more than $ 20 million to comparable year-over-year sales , the impact was more than offset by comparable sales decreases related to dispositions , the most significant of which was the 2016 sale of the company 's rigid plastics blow molding operations . finally , foreign exchange rate changes decreased sales year-over-year as almost all of the foreign currencies in which the company conducts business weakened in relation to the u.s. dollar . total domestic sales were $ 3.1 billion , down 3.1 % from 2015 levels . international sales were $ 1.7 billion , down 4.6 % from 2015 with most of the decrease driven by the impact of foreign currency translation . additionally , sales in mexico were lower due to the loss of contract packaging business in irapuato , mexico . costs and expenses/margins cost of sales was down $ 189.5 million in 2016 , or 4.7 % , from the prior year primarily as a result of foreign currency translation , certain raw material price declines , disposed businesses , lower pension expense and productivity improvements , somewhat offset by the impact of acquisitions . partially offsetting these benefits were

and lower pension expense . these favorable factors were partially offset by volume declines , particularly in rigid paper north america , higher overhead , management incentive and other operating costs , and unfavorable changes in foreign currency translation . the effective tax rate on gaap earnings was 37.3 % , compared with 26.8 % in 2015 , and the effective tax rate on base earnings was 30.6 % , compared with 31.0 % in 2015. the main drivers of the unfavorable change in the rate on gaap earnings include taxes on the gain related to the current-year disposal of the rigid plastics blow molding operations and prior year income tax benefits related to the release of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets in certain international jurisdictions . the effective tax rate on base earnings was essentially flat year over year . consolidated net sales for 2016 were $ 4.8 billion , a $ 181 million , or 3.7 % , decrease from 2015. the components of the sales change were : ( $ in millions ) volume/mix $ 6 selling price ( 25 ) acquisitions and divestitures , net ( 25 ) foreign currency translation and other , net ( 137 ) total sales decrease $ ( 181 ) in order to enhance the meaningfulness of reported changes in volume/mix , a $ 63.7 million reduction in packaging center sales resulting from changes in the level of activity , primarily from the previously reported loss of contract packaging business in irapuato , mexico , is classified above as ย“otherย” due to the low/inconsistent correlation that typically exists between changes in revenue and changes in operating profit in our packaging center operations . sales volume/mix was essentially flat as organic volume growth and a favorable change in product mix in a number of our businesses offset volume declines in rigid paper containers . for the most part , price changes for the company 's products were driven by changes in the underlying raw materials costs . in 2016 , many of the company 's primary raw materials saw decreases in their market prices ; however , old corrugated containers ( occ ) saw a moderate increase year over year . this increase most directly affected the paper and industrial converted products segment while the decrease in other raw materials , mainly resins , most directly affected the consumer packaging segment . while the company 's 2016 and 2015 acquisitions added more than $ 20 million to comparable year-over-year sales , the impact was more than offset by comparable sales decreases related to dispositions , the most significant of which was the 2016 sale of the company 's rigid plastics blow molding operations . finally , foreign exchange rate changes decreased sales year-over-year as almost all of the foreign currencies in which the company conducts business weakened in relation to the u.s. dollar . total domestic sales were $ 3.1 billion , down 3.1 % from 2015 levels . international sales were $ 1.7 billion , down 4.6 % from 2015 with most of the decrease driven by the impact of foreign currency translation . additionally , sales in mexico were lower due to the loss of contract packaging business in irapuato , mexico . costs and expenses/margins cost of sales was down $ 189.5 million in 2016 , or 4.7 % , from the prior year primarily as a result of foreign currency translation , certain raw material price declines , disposed businesses , lower pension expense and productivity improvements , somewhat offset by the impact of acquisitions . partially offsetting these benefits were

interest paid for the use of these funds is the second factor in the net interest income equation . interest-free funds , such as demand deposits and stockholders ' equity , require no interest expense and , therefore , contribute significantly to net interest income . the profit margin , or spread , on invested funds is a key performance measure . the company monitors two key performance indicators - net interest spread and net interest margin . the net interest spread represents the difference between the average rate earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate paid on

the net interest margin , measured on a fully taxable equivalent basis , increased to 4.01 % , compared to 3.81 % in 2015. the net interest margin , excluding the impact of amortization and accretion from the current year acquisitions , improved 19 basis points to 3.95 % for the year ended december 31 , 2016. the accretion added $ 98 thousand per month during 2016 and will continue over the next

the north american class 5-7 production has steadily increased from 201,000 in 2013 to 237,000 in 2015. according to a january 2016 report by act research , north american class 5-7 production levels are expected to be relatively flat in 2016 at 233,000 and gradually increase to 273,000 in 2020. we believe the demand for north american class 5-7 in 2016 will be relatively stable . in 2015 , approximately 49 % of our revenue was generated from sales to north american md/hd truck oems . our remaining revenue in 2015 was primarily derived from sales to oems in the global construction equipment market , aftermarket , oe service organizations , military market and other commercial vehicle specialty markets . demand for our products is driven to a significant degree by preferences of the end-user of the commercial vehicle , particularly with respect to heavy-duty trucks . unlike the automotive industry , commercial vehicle oems generally afford the end-user the ability to specify many of the component parts that will be used to manufacture the commercial vehicle , including a wide variety of cab interior styles and colors , the brand and type of seats , type of seat fabric and color and specific interior styling . in addition , certain of our products are only utilized in north american class 8 market , such as our storage systems , sleeper boxes and privacy curtains , and , as a result , changes in demand for heavy-duty trucks or the mix of options on a vehicle can have a greater impact on our business than changes in the overall demand for commercial vehicles . to the extent that demand for higher content vehicles increases or decreases , our revenues and gross profit will be impacted positively or negatively . demand for our construction products is dependent on the vehicle production and demand for new commercial vehicles in the global construction equipment market and generally follows certain economic conditions around the world . our products are primarily used in the medium-and heavy-duty construction equipment markets ( weighing over 12 metric tons ) . demand in the medium-and heavy-duty construction equipment market is typically related to the level of larger scale infrastructure development projects such as highways , dams , harbors , hospitals , airports and industrial development , as well as activity in the mining , forestry and other raw material based industries . we believe there is a bias toward continuing softness in global construction and agriculture markets in 2016. we generally compete for new business at the beginning of the development of a new vehicle platform and upon the redesign of existing programs . new platform development generally begins at least one to three years before the marketing of such models 31 by our customers . contract durations for commercial vehicle products generally extend for the entire life of the platform , which is typically five to seven years . our long-term strategy our long-term strategic plan is a roadmap by product , geographic region , and end market to guide resource allocation and other decision making to achieve our long-term goals . to that end , we evaluated our opportunity to grow organically by end market . we currently believe we have approximately 5 % market share of the addressable global truck , bus , construction and agriculture end markets . accordingly , we believe we have significant opportunity to grow organically in our end markets . we evaluated our product portfolio in the context of this organic market growth opportunity and our ability to win in the marketplace . our core products are seats , trim and wire harnesses and our complementary products include structures , wipers , mirrors and office seats . we expect to realize some geographic diversification over the planned period toward asia-pacific . we also expect to realize some end market diversification more weighted toward the agriculture market , and to a lesser extent the construction market . we intend to allocate resources consistent with our strategic plan ;

``` Suspicious Activity Report : the north american class 5-7 production has steadily increased from 201,000 in 2013 to 237,000 in 2015. according to a january 2016 report by act research , north american class 5-7 production levels are expected to be relatively flat in 2016 at 233,000 and gradually increase to 273,000 in 2020. we believe the demand for north american class 5-7 in 2016 will be relatively stable . in 2015 , approximately 49 % of our revenue was generated from sales to north american md/hd truck oems . our remaining revenue in 2015 was primarily derived from sales to oems in the global construction equipment market , aftermarket , oe service organizations , military market and other commercial vehicle specialty markets . demand for our products is driven to a significant degree by preferences of the end-user of the commercial vehicle , particularly with respect to heavy-duty trucks . unlike the automotive industry , commercial vehicle oems generally afford the end-user the ability to specify many of the component parts that will be used to manufacture the commercial vehicle , including a wide variety of cab interior styles and colors , the brand and type of seats , type of seat fabric and color and specific interior styling . in addition , certain of our products are only utilized in north american class 8 market , such as our storage systems , sleeper boxes and privacy curtains , and , as a result , changes in demand for heavy-duty trucks or the mix of options on a vehicle can have a greater impact on our business than changes in the overall demand for commercial vehicles . to the extent that demand for higher content vehicles increases or decreases , our revenues and gross profit will be impacted positively or negatively . demand for our construction products is dependent on the vehicle production and demand for new commercial vehicles in the global construction equipment market and generally follows certain economic conditions around the world . our products are primarily used in the medium-and heavy-duty construction equipment markets ( weighing over 12 metric tons ) . demand in the medium-and heavy-duty construction equipment market is typically related to the level of larger scale infrastructure development projects such as highways , dams , harbors , hospitals , airports and industrial development , as well as activity in the mining , forestry and other raw material based industries . we believe there is a bias toward continuing softness in global construction and agriculture markets in 2016. we generally compete for new business at the beginning of the development of a new vehicle platform and upon the redesign of existing programs . new platform development generally begins at least one to three years before the marketing of such models 31 by our customers . contract durations for commercial vehicle products generally extend for the entire life of the platform , which is typically five to seven years . our long-term strategy our long-term strategic plan is a roadmap by product , geographic region , and end market to guide resource allocation and other decision making to achieve our long-term goals . to that end , we evaluated our opportunity to grow organically by end market . we currently believe we have approximately 5 % market share of the addressable global truck , bus , construction and agriculture end markets . accordingly , we believe we have significant opportunity to grow organically in our end markets . we evaluated our product portfolio in the context of this organic market growth opportunity and our ability to win in the marketplace . our core products are seats , trim and wire harnesses and our complementary products include structures , wipers , mirrors and office seats . we expect to realize some geographic diversification over the planned period toward asia-pacific . we also expect to realize some end market diversification more weighted toward the agriculture market , and to a lesser extent the construction market . we intend to allocate resources consistent with our strategic plan ; and more specifically , consistent with our core and complementary product portfolio , geographic region and end market diversification objectives . we periodically evaluate our long-term strategic plan in response to significant changes in our business environment and other factors . although our long-term strategic plan is an organic growth plan , we will consider opportunistic acquisitions to supplement our product portfolio , and to enhance our ability to serve our customers in our geographic end markets . strategic footprint we continuously review our manufacturing footprint to ensure we efficiently utilize our resources . in december 2015

results of operations `` in this management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations ( `` md & a `` ) for additional discussion of our results of operations for the years ended december 31 , 2017 , 2016 and 2015. restructuring and cost reduction initiatives in connection with the merger , we implemented a restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of 2017 to eliminate certain redundant positions and facilities within the combined companies ( the `` merger restructuring initiative `` ) . accordingly , we recorded $ 8.5 million of restructuring expense in 2017 related to the merger restructuring initiative . we believe that the payments related to the amount accrued at december 31 , 2017 will be completed in 2018. we anticipate that we will record additional future expense in connection with this initiative for headcount and redundant facilities aggregating approximately $ 12 million . we believe that the payments related to this expected additional future expense will be completed by early 2019. we assumed genband 's restructuring liability aggregating approximately $ 4 million at the merger date ( the `` genband restructuring initiative `` ) , primarily related to headcount reductions . we do not expect to record additional expense in connection with this initiative except for adjustments for changes in estimated costs . we expect that the payments related to this assumed liability will be completed in 2018. in connection with the acquisition of taqua , we implemented a restructuring plan in the third quarter of 2016 to eliminate certain redundant positions within the combined companies . on october 24 , 2016 , the audit committee of our board of directors ( the `` audit committee `` ) approved a broader taqua restructuring plan related to headcount and redundant facilities ( collectively , the `` taqua restructuring initiative `` ) . in connection with this initiative , we have recorded approximately $ 2 million of restructuring expense for severance and related costs and estimated costs related to the elimination of redundant facilities , including adjustments recorded for changes in cost estimates for the planned restructuring activities . the actions under the taqua restructuring initiative have been implemented and accordingly , we do not expect to record additional expense in connection with

the end of 2018 . 45 on july 25 , 2016 , we announced a program ( the `` 2016 restructuring initiative `` ) to further accelerate our investment in new technologies as the communications industry migrates to a cloud-based architecture and pursues new strategic initiatives , such as new products and an expanded go-to-market footprint in selected geographies and discrete vertical markets . we have recorded an aggregate of approximately $ 2 million of restructuring expense in connection with this initiative , primarily for severance and related costs . the amounts accrued for severance and related costs were fully paid by the end of the third quarter of 2017. we expect that the amounts accrued for facilities will be paid by the end of october 2019. to better align our cost structure to our then-current revenue expectations , in april 2015 , we announced a cost reduction review . on april 16 , 2015 , we initiated a restructuring plan to reduce our workforce by approximately 150 positions , or approximately 13 % of our worldwide workforce ( the `` 2015 restructuring initiative `` ) . we recorded nominal restructuring expense in 2016 and approximately $ 4 million in 2015 in connection with the 2015 restructuring initiative . story_separator_special_tag subsidiaries as of december 31 , 2017 , with the exception of the company 's irish subsidiary , as we do not plan to permanently reinvest these amounts outside the united states . the repatriation of the undistributed earnings would result in withholding taxes imposed on the repatriation . consequently , we have recorded a tax liability of $ 3.2 million , consisting primarily of withholding and distribution taxes , relating to undistributed earnings from these subsidiaries as of december 31 , 2017. had the earnings of the irish subsidiary been determined to not be permanently reinvested outside the u.s. , no additional deferred tax liability would be required due to no withholding taxes or income tax expense being imposed on such repatriation . we assess all material positions taken in any income tax return , including all significant uncertain positions , in all tax years that are still subject to assessment or challenge by relevant taxing authorities . assessing an uncertain tax position begins with the initial determination of the position 's sustainability and is measured at the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50 % likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement . as of each balance sheet date , unresolved uncertain tax positions must be reassessed , and we will determine whether ( i ) the factors underlying the sustainability assertion have changed and ( ii ) the amount of recognized tax benefit is still appropriate . the recognition and measurement of tax benefits require significant judgment . judgments concerning the recognition and measurement of a tax benefit might change as new information becomes available . on december 22 , 2017 , the u.s. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the tax cuts and jobs act ( the `` tax act `` ) . the tax act makes broad and complex changes to the u.s. tax code , including

for 2016 and $ 31 million for 2015. we reported net losses of approximately $ 35 million for 2017 , $ 14 million for 2016 and $ 32 million for 2015. our revenue was approximately $ 330 million in 2017 , $ 253 million in 2016 and $ 249 million in 2015. our gross profit was approximately $ 201 million in 2017 , $ 168 million in 2016 and $ 162 million in 2015. our gross profit as a percentage of revenue ( `` total gross margin `` ) was approximately 61 % in 2017 , 66 % in 2016 and 65 % in 2015. our operating expenses were approximately $ 257 million in 2017 , compared to approximately $ 181

stock awards in connection with the merger . see `` results of operations `` in this management 's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations ( `` md & a `` ) for additional discussion of our results of operations for the years ended december 31 , 2017 , 2016 and 2015. restructuring and cost reduction initiatives in connection with the merger , we implemented a restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of 2017 to eliminate certain redundant positions and facilities within the combined companies ( the `` merger restructuring initiative `` ) . accordingly , we recorded $ 8.5 million of restructuring expense in 2017 related to the merger restructuring initiative . we believe that the payments related to the amount accrued at december 31 , 2017 will be completed in 2018. we anticipate that we will record additional future expense in connection with this initiative for headcount and redundant facilities aggregating approximately $ 12 million . we believe that the payments related to this expected additional future expense will be completed by early 2019. we assumed genband 's restructuring liability aggregating approximately $ 4 million at the merger date ( the `` genband restructuring initiative `` ) , primarily related to headcount reductions . we do not expect to record additional expense in connection with this initiative except for adjustments for changes in estimated costs . we expect that the payments related to this assumed liability will be completed in 2018. in connection with the acquisition of taqua , we implemented a restructuring plan in the third quarter of 2016 to eliminate certain redundant positions within the combined companies . on october 24 , 2016 , the audit committee of our board of directors ( the `` audit committee `` ) approved a broader taqua restructuring plan related to headcount and redundant facilities ( collectively , the `` taqua restructuring initiative `` ) . in connection with this initiative , we have recorded approximately $ 2 million of restructuring expense for severance and related costs and estimated costs related to the elimination of redundant facilities , including adjustments recorded for changes in cost estimates for the planned restructuring activities . the actions under the taqua restructuring initiative have been implemented and accordingly , we do not expect to record additional expense in connection with this initiative . the amounts accrued for severance and related costs were fully paid by the end of the third quarter of 2017. we expect that the amounts accrued for facilities costs will be paid by the end of 2018 . 45 on july 25 , 2016 , we announced a program ( the `` 2016 restructuring initiative `` ) to further accelerate our investment in new technologies as the communications industry migrates to a cloud-based architecture and pursues new strategic initiatives , such as new products and an expanded go-to-market footprint in selected geographies and discrete vertical markets . we have recorded an aggregate of approximately $ 2 million of restructuring expense in connection with this initiative , primarily for severance and related costs . the amounts accrued for severance and related costs were fully paid by the end of the third quarter of 2017. we expect that the amounts accrued for facilities will be paid by the end of october 2019. to better align our cost structure to our then-current revenue expectations , in april 2015 , we announced a cost reduction review . on april 16 , 2015 , we initiated a restructuring plan to reduce our workforce by approximately 150 positions , or approximately 13 % of our worldwide workforce ( the `` 2015 restructuring initiative `` ) . we recorded nominal restructuring expense in 2016 and approximately $ 4 million in 2015 in connection with the 2015 restructuring initiative . story_separator_special_tag subsidiaries as of december 31 , 2017 , with the exception of the company 's irish subsidiary , as we do not plan to permanently reinvest these amounts outside the united states . the repatriation of the undistributed earnings would result in withholding taxes imposed on the repatriation . consequently , we have recorded a tax liability of $ 3.2 million , consisting primarily of withholding and distribution taxes , relating to undistributed earnings from these subsidiaries as of december 31 , 2017. had the earnings of the irish subsidiary been determined to not be permanently reinvested outside the u.s. , no additional deferred tax liability would be required due to no withholding taxes or income tax expense being imposed on such repatriation . we assess all material positions taken in any income tax return , including all significant uncertain positions , in all tax years that are still subject to assessment or challenge by relevant taxing authorities . assessing an uncertain tax position begins with the initial determination of the position 's sustainability and is measured at the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50 % likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement . as of each balance sheet date , unresolved uncertain tax positions must be reassessed , and we will determine whether ( i ) the factors underlying the sustainability assertion have changed and ( ii ) the amount of recognized tax benefit is still appropriate . the recognition and measurement of tax benefits require significant judgment . judgments concerning the recognition and measurement of a tax benefit might change as new information becomes available . on december 22 , 2017 , the u.s. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the tax cuts and jobs act ( the `` tax act `` ) . the tax act makes broad and complex changes to the u.s. tax code , including , but not limited to : reducing the u.s. federal corporate tax rate from 35 % to 21 % ; requiring companies to pay a one-time transition tax on certain unrepatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries ; generally eliminating u.s. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries ; requiring a current inclusion in

`` total revenue for 2015 was $ 8,209 million , a three percent decrease from $ 8,420 million in 2014. excluding the impact of currency and substrate sales , revenue was up $ 315 million from $ 6,486 million to $ 6,801 million , driven primarily by stronger oe light vehicle volumes in north america , europe , india and china , increased aftermarket sales in north america and south america and new platforms in europe , china and japan , which were partially offset by lower commercial truck , off-highway and other revenue mainly in south america and china . cost of sales : cost of sales for 2015 was $ 6,845 million , or 83.4 percent of sales , compared to $ 7,025 million , or 83.4 percent of sales in 2014. the following table lists the primary drivers behind the change in cost of sales ( $ millions ) . replace_table_token_14_th the decrease in cost of sales was due to the impact of currency exchange rates , lower net material costs , and lower other costs , mainly manufacturing , partially offset by the year-over-year increase in volume . 41 gross margin : revenue less cost of sales for 2015 was $ 1,364 million , or 16.6 percent of sales , versus $ 1,395 million , or 16.6 percent of sales in 2014. the effect on gross margin resulting from year-over-year increase in volume , lower net material costs and lower other costs , mainly manufacturing , was more than offset by unfavorable currency . engineering , research and development : engineering , research and development expense was $ 146 million and $ 169 million in 2015 and 2014 , respectively , mainly due to currency impact and the timing of customers ' recoveries . selling , general and administrative ( sg & a ) : selling , general and administrative expense was down $ 28 million in 2015 , at $ 491 million , compared to $ 519 million in 2014 , mainly due to currency impact . depreciation and amortization : depreciation and amortization expense was $ 203 million and $ 208 million for 2015 and 2014 , respectively . earnings before interest expense , taxes and noncontrolling interests ( โ€œ ebit โ€ ) was $ 519 million for 2015 , an increase of $ 27 million , when compared to $ 492 million in the prior year . higher oe light vehicle volumes in north america , europe , india and china , increased aftermarket sales in north america and south america , new platforms in europe , china and japan , the benefit of our product cost leadership initiatives and savings from previous restructuring activities were partially offset by lower commercial truck , off-highway and other revenue mainly in south america and china , unfavorable mix , higher restructuring costs and $ 64 million of negative currency . ebit for 2015 also benefited from the timing of a customer recovery in china clean air of $ 5 million . ebit for 2014 included a $ 7 million adjustment to workers ' compensation reserves . results from operations net sales and operating revenues for years 2015 and 2014 the tables below reflect our revenues for 2015 and 2014. we show the component of our oe revenue represented by substrate sales . while we generally have primary design , engineering and manufacturing responsibility for oe emission control systems , we do not manufacture substrates . substrates are porous ceramic filters coated with a catalyst - typically , precious metals such as platinum , palladium and rhodium . these are supplied to us by tier 2 suppliers generally as directed by our oe customers . we generally earn a small margin on these components of the system . as the need for more sophisticated emission control solutions increases to meet more stringent environmental regulations , and as we capture more diesel aftertreatment business , these substrate components have been increasing as a percentage of our revenue . while these substrates dilute our gross margin percentage , they are a necessary component of an emission control system . our value-add content in an emission control system includes designing the system to meet environmental regulations through integration of the substrates into the system , maximizing use of thermal energy to heat up the catalyst quickly , efficiently managing airflow to reduce back pressure as the exhaust stream moves past the catalyst , managing the expansion and contraction of the emission control system components due to temperature extremes experienced by an emission control system , using advanced acoustic engineering tools to design the desired exhaust sound , minimizing the opportunity for the fragile components of the substrate to be damaged when we integrate it into the emission control system and reducing unwanted noise , vibration and harshness transmitted through the emission control system . we present these substrate sales separately in the following table because we believe investors utilize this information to understand the impact of this portion of our revenues on our overall business and because it removes the impact of potentially volatile precious metals pricing from our revenues . while our original equipment customers generally assume the risk of precious metals pricing volatility , it impacts our reported revenues . presenting revenues that exclude โ€œ substrates โ€ used in catalytic converters and diesel particulate filters removes this impact . additionally , we present these reconciliations of revenues in order to reflect value-add revenues without the effect of changes in foreign currency rates . we have not reflected any currency impact in the 2014 table since this is the base period for measuring the effects of currency during 2015 on our operations . we believe investors find this information useful in understanding period-to-period comparisons in our revenues . story_separator_special_tag ebit as a percentage of revenues for asia pacific in 2014 was even when compared to 2013. the benefit from higher light vehicle production volumes , new platforms and higher commercial truck and off-highway vehicle revenues in china and japan and restructuring savings in australia was offset by lower volumes in australia and thailand , higher engineering expenses and higher restructuring and related expenses . 50 in the ride performance division , ebit as a percentage of revenues in 2014 was up two percentage points compared to the 2013. in 2014 , ebit as a percentage of revenues for north america was up one percentage point compared to 2013. the benefits of increased light vehicle and commercial truck volumes and positive aftermarket product mix were partially offset by higher restructuring and related expenses and unfavorable currency . ebit as a percentage of revenues in europe , south america and india was up five percentage points in 2014 when compared to 2013. the increase was driven by lower year-over-year restructuring and related expenses , increased light vehicle and commercial truck volumes in europe , higher aftermarket revenues in south america and india and year-over-year savings from prior restructuring activities , partially offset by lower light vehicle sales in south america and negative currency . in asia pacific , ebit as a percentage of revenues in 2014 was up six percentage points from 2013. ebit benefited from higher light vehicle production volumes in china , savings from prior restructuring activities in australia and positive currency , partially offset by lower volumes in australia . interest expense , net of interest capitalized we reported interest expense in 2015 of $ 67 million ( substantially all in our u.s. operations ) net of interest capitalized of $ 6 million , and $ 91 million ( substantially all in our u.s. operations ) net of interest capitalized of $ 5 million in 2014. included in 2014 was $ 13 million of expense related to our refinancing activities . the decrease was due to lower interest rates from the refinancing completed in december 2014 where we extended maturities , increased the size of our senior secured credit facility and reduced the rates on the credit facility and refinanced the senior unsecured notes with new maturity dates bearing lower interest rates . we reported interest expense in 2014 of $ 91 million ( substantially all in our u.s. operations ) net of interest capitalized of $ 5 million , up from $ 80 million ( substantially all in our u.s. operations ) net of interest capitalized of $ 4 million in 2013. included in 2014 was $ 13 million of expense related to our refinancing activities . excluding the refinancing expenses , interest expense decreased by $ 2 million in 2014 compared to 2013. on december 31 , 2015 , we had $ 758 million in long-term debt obligations that have fixed interest rates . of that amount , $ 500 million is fixed through december 2020 , $ 225 million is fixed through december 2024 and the remainder is fixed from 2015 through 2025. we also have $ 382 million in long-term debt obligations that are subject to variable interest rates . for more detailed explanations on our debt structure and senior credit facility refer to โ€œ liquidity and capital resources โ€” capitalization โ€ later in this management 's discussion and analysis . income taxes we reported income tax expense of $ 149 million in 2015. the tax expense recorded in 2015 included a net tax benefit of $ 15 million primarily relating to prior year u.s. research and development tax credits , changes to uncertain tax positions , and prior year income tax adjustments . we reported an income tax expense of $ 131 million for 2014. the tax expense recorded in 2014 includes a net tax benefit of $ 11 million for prior year tax adjustments primarily relating to changes to uncertain tax positions and prior year income tax estimates . we reported an income tax expense of $ 122 million for 2013. the tax expense recorded in 2013 includes a net tax benefit of $ 25 million for tax adjustments primarily related to recognizing a u.s. tax benefit for foreign taxes and changes to prior year estimates including changes to uncertain tax positions . the u.s. tax benefit for foreign taxes is driven by our ability to claim a u.s. foreign tax credit beginning in 2013. the u.s. foreign tax credit regime provides for a credit against u.s. taxes otherwise payable for foreign taxes paid with regard to dividends , interest and royalties paid to us in the u.s. we believe it is reasonably possible that up to $ 10 million in unrecognized tax benefits related to the expiration of foreign statute of limitations and the conclusion of income tax examinations may be recognized within the next twelve months . our federal net operating loss ( `` nol `` ) at december 31 , 2013 totaled $ 37 million . we had fully

cost of sales for 2015 was $ 1,364 million , or 16.6 percent of sales , versus $ 1,395 million , or 16.6 percent of sales in 2014. the effect on gross margin resulting from year-over-year increase in volume , lower net material costs and lower other costs , mainly manufacturing , was more than offset by unfavorable currency . engineering , research and development : engineering , research and development expense was $ 146 million and $ 169 million in 2015 and 2014 , respectively , mainly due to currency impact and the timing of customers ' recoveries . selling , general and administrative ( sg & a ) : selling , general and administrative expense was down $ 28 million in 2015 , at $ 491 million , compared to $ 519 million in 2014 , mainly due to currency impact . depreciation and amortization : depreciation and amortization expense was $ 203 million and $ 208 million for 2015 and 2014 , respectively . earnings before interest expense , taxes and noncontrolling interests ( โ€œ ebit โ€ ) was $ 519 million for 2015 , an increase of $ 27 million , when compared to $ 492 million in the prior year . higher oe light vehicle volumes in north america , europe , india and china , increased aftermarket sales in north america and south america , new platforms in europe , china and japan , the benefit of our product cost leadership initiatives and savings from previous restructuring activities were partially offset by lower commercial truck , off-highway and other revenue mainly in south america and china , unfavorable mix , higher restructuring costs and $ 64 million of negative currency . ebit for 2015 also benefited from the timing of a customer recovery in china clean air of $ 5 million . ebit for 2014 included a $ 7 million adjustment to workers ' compensation reserves . results from operations net sales and operating revenues for years 2015 and 2014 the tables below reflect our revenues for 2015 and 2014. we show the component of our oe revenue represented by substrate sales . while we generally have primary design , engineering and manufacturing responsibility for oe emission control systems , we do not manufacture substrates . substrates are porous ceramic filters coated with a catalyst - typically , precious metals such as platinum , palladium and rhodium . these are supplied to us by tier 2 suppliers generally as directed by our oe customers . we generally earn a small margin on these components of the system . as the need for more sophisticated emission control solutions increases to meet more stringent environmental regulations , and as we capture more diesel aftertreatment business , these substrate components have been increasing as a percentage of our revenue . while these substrates dilute our gross margin percentage , they are a necessary component of an emission control system . our value-add content in an emission control system includes designing the system to meet environmental regulations through integration of the substrates into the system , maximizing use of thermal energy to heat up the catalyst quickly , efficiently managing airflow to reduce back pressure as the exhaust stream moves past the catalyst , managing the expansion and contraction of the emission control system components due to temperature extremes experienced by an emission control system , using advanced acoustic engineering tools to design the desired exhaust sound , minimizing the opportunity for the fragile components of the substrate to be damaged when we integrate it into the emission control system and reducing unwanted noise , vibration and harshness transmitted through the emission control system . we present these substrate sales separately in the following table because we believe investors utilize this information to understand the impact of this portion of our revenues on our overall business and because it removes the impact of potentially volatile precious metals pricing from our revenues . while our original equipment customers generally assume the risk of precious metals pricing volatility , it impacts our reported revenues . presenting revenues that exclude โ€œ substrates โ€ used in catalytic converters and diesel particulate filters removes this impact . additionally , we present these reconciliations of revenues in order to reflect value-add revenues without the effect of changes in foreign currency rates . we have not reflected any currency impact in the 2014 table since this is the base period for measuring the effects of currency during 2015 on our operations . we believe investors find this information useful in understanding period-to-period comparisons in our revenues . story_separator_special_tag ebit as a percentage of revenues for asia pacific in 2014 was even when compared to 2013. the benefit from higher light vehicle production volumes , new platforms and higher commercial truck and off-highway vehicle revenues in china and japan and restructuring savings in australia was offset by lower volumes in australia and thailand , higher engineering expenses and higher restructuring and related expenses . 50 in the ride performance division , ebit as a percentage of revenues in 2014 was up two percentage points compared to the 2013. in 2014 , ebit as a percentage of revenues for north america was up one percentage point compared to 2013. the benefits of increased light vehicle and commercial truck volumes and positive aftermarket product mix were partially offset by higher restructuring and related expenses and unfavorable currency . ebit as a percentage of revenues in europe , south america and india was up five percentage points in 2014 when compared to 2013. the increase was driven by lower year-over-year restructuring and related expenses , increased light vehicle and commercial truck volumes in europe , higher aftermarket revenues in south america and india and year-over-year savings from prior restructuring activities , partially offset by lower light vehicle sales in south america and negative currency . in asia pacific , ebit as a percentage of revenues in 2014 was up six percentage points from 2013. ebit benefited from higher light vehicle production volumes in china , savings from prior restructuring activities in australia and positive currency , partially offset by lower volumes in australia . interest expense , net of interest capitalized we reported interest expense in 2015 of $ 67 million ( substantially all in our u.s. operations ) net of interest capitalized of $ 6 million , and $ 91 million ( substantially all in our u.s. operations ) net of interest capitalized of $ 5 million in 2014. included in 2014 was $ 13 million of expense related to our refinancing activities . the decrease was due to lower interest rates from the refinancing completed in december 2014 where we extended maturities , increased the size of our senior secured credit facility and reduced the rates on the credit facility and refinanced the senior unsecured notes with new maturity dates bearing lower interest rates . we reported interest expense in 2014 of $ 91 million ( substantially all in our u.s. operations ) net of interest capitalized of $ 5 million , up from $ 80 million ( substantially all in our u.s. operations ) net of interest capitalized of $ 4 million in 2013. included in 2014 was $ 13 million of expense related to our refinancing activities . excluding the refinancing expenses , interest expense decreased by $ 2 million in 2014 compared to 2013. on december 31 , 2015 , we had $ 758 million in long-term debt obligations that have fixed interest rates . of that amount , $ 500 million is fixed through december 2020 , $ 225 million is fixed through december 2024 and the remainder is fixed from 2015 through 2025. we also have $ 382 million in long-term debt obligations that are subject to variable interest rates . for more detailed explanations on our debt structure and senior credit facility refer to โ€œ liquidity and capital resources โ€” capitalization โ€ later in this management 's discussion and analysis . income taxes we reported income tax expense of $ 149 million in 2015. the tax expense recorded in 2015 included a net tax benefit of $ 15 million primarily relating to prior year u.s. research and development tax credits , changes to uncertain tax positions , and prior year income tax adjustments . we reported an income tax expense of $ 131 million for 2014. the tax expense recorded in 2014 includes a net tax benefit of $ 11 million for prior year tax adjustments primarily relating to changes to uncertain tax positions and prior year income tax estimates . we reported an income tax expense of $ 122 million for 2013. the tax expense recorded in 2013 includes a net tax benefit of $ 25 million for tax adjustments primarily related to recognizing a u.s. tax benefit for foreign taxes and changes to prior year estimates including changes to uncertain tax positions . the u.s. tax benefit for foreign taxes is driven by our ability to claim a u.s. foreign tax credit beginning in 2013. the u.s. foreign tax credit regime provides for a credit against u.s. taxes otherwise payable for foreign taxes paid with regard to dividends , interest and royalties paid to us in the u.s. we believe it is reasonably possible that up to $ 10 million in unrecognized tax benefits related to the expiration of foreign statute of limitations and the conclusion of income tax examinations may be recognized within the next twelve months . our federal net operating loss ( `` nol `` ) at december 31 , 2013 totaled $ 37 million . we had fully utilized our nol as of june 30 , 2014. the state nols expire in various tax years through 2032. restructuring and other charges over the past several years , we have adopted plans to restructure portions of our operations . these plans were approved by our board of directors and were designed to reduce operational and administrative overhead costs throughout the business . in 2013 , we incurred $ 78 million in restructuring and related costs , primarily related to european cost reduction efforts , including non-cash asset write downs of $ 3 million , the costs to exit the distribution of aftermarket exhaust products and ending production of leaf springs in australia , headcount reductions in various regions , and the net impact of freezing our defined benefit plans in the united kingdom , of which $ 70 million was recorded in cost of sales , $ 6 million in sg & a , $ 1 million in engineering

importantly , we continually evaluate various strategic options that we believe may enable us to enhance stockholder value , including the possible separation of these two distinct businesses . avidโ€”our cdmo business avid provides fully-integrated cgmp services from cell line development to commercial biomanufacturing of large molecules , such as monoclonal antibodies and recombinant proteins for third-party customers while also supporting peregrine 's internal drug development business . we believe this integration offers considerable time and cost efficiencies for our internal drug development business . 30 we have been developing and manufacturing biologics since 1993 in our franklin biomanufacturing facility ( the โ€œ franklin facility โ€ ) located at our current headquarters in tustin , california and formed avid in 2002 to offer these services to third-party customers using . in march 2016 , we expanded our manufacturing capacity through the launch of our myford biomanufacturing facility ( the โ€œ myford facility โ€ ) , which doubled our manufacturing capacity . the 42,000 square foot facility , which is our second biomanufacturing facility , can accommodate single-use bioreactors up to the 2,000-liter manufacturing scale . the myford facility was designed to accommodate a fully disposable biomanufacturing process for products in late stage clinical development to commercial . to date , myford facility has been utilized to complete a number of process validation runs for our third-party customers , which may lead to future commercial production , and has supported the process validation of our internal product , bavituximab . the myford facility is located adjacent to our franklin facility . as we look to expand our cdmo business , in february 2017 , we leased an additional 42,000 square feet of vacant warehouse space within the same building as our existing myford facility . the proximity of this space will allow us to utilize existing manufacturing infrastructure that we believe should enhance our manufacturing efficiencies and reduce the overall cost and timeframe to construct a third biomanufacturing facility . although we previously anticipated that the new manufacturing facility would be constructed and ready for manufacturing activities by mid-calendar year 2018 , due to unanticipated changes in and or timing of customer demand ( as discussed above ) , we have decided to defer construction of this third facility until demand from existing or potential new customers is expected to exceed the current capacity at our franklin facility and myford facility . additionally , commencement of construction is also subject to our ability to raise sufficient additional capital to support this expansion effort . as a result , we presently do not expect to commence construction of this third facility prior to april 30 , 2018. peregrineโ€”our research and development business peregrine is developing therapeutics designed to fight cancer by reversing the immunosuppressive environment that tumors establish in order to proliferate . by doing so , these therapeutics allow the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells . bavituximab is our lead immunotherapy candidate and currently we are collaborating with the national comprehensive cancer networkยฎ ( โ€œ nccn โ€ ) and memorial sloan kettering cancer center ( โ€œ mskcc โ€ ) , to evaluate the potential of bavituximab in combination with immune stimulating therapies . clinical development strategy in june 2016 , we announced a clinical development strategy focused on conducting small , early stage studies of bavituximab in combination with immune stimulating therapies . these trials may be conducted independently , in conjunction with our collaborators , or through investigator sponsored trials ( โ€œ ists โ€ ) . the goal of these trials is to generate compelling clinical and translational data demonstrating bavituximab 's immunotherapeutic mechanism of action in a combination treatment setting . additionally , we are in the process of completing an extensive review and analysis of the available data from the discontinued phase iii sunrise trial discussed below and testing the numerous collected samples for potential biomarkers in order to determine if certain subgroups may have benefited more from the bavituximab treatment . we believe such information will assist us in guiding the bavituximab clinical program . in keeping with this strategy , we are evaluating options to advance clinical development bavituximab in an efficient and cost-effective way . we believe this strategy will allow us to ( i ) continue our research and development activities while avoiding costly , later stage clinical trials , thereby allowing us to achieve profitability sooner , and ( ii ) generate additional data that we believe , if positive , could create future potential value , including attracting potential licensing partners or re-engaging our collaboration with astrazeneca . 31 nccn collaboration in january 2016 , we announced that we entered into a research collaboration with nccn , a not-for-profit alliance of 27 of the world 's leading cancer centers , to expand the clinical research and development of bavituximab for the treatment of a range of tumors . under this research collaboration , we are funding three ists and related correlative studies with bavituximab at nccn member institutions and their affiliate community hospitals through a $ 2 million research grant to nccn 's oncology research program . nccn is responsible for oversight and monitoring of the three clinical studies awarded under the research grant . in september 2016 , nccn announced that investigators at the following nccn-affiliated institutions received the grant award : 1. moffitt cancer centerโ€”a phase i trial of sorafenib and bavituximab plus stereotactic body radiation therapy for unresectable hepatitis c associated hepatocellular carcinoma . this trial is open for enrollment . 2. massachusetts general hospital cancer centerโ€”phase i/ii clinical trial of bavituximab with radiation and temozolomide for patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma . this trial is open for enrollment . 3. the sidney kimmel comprehensive cancer center at johns hopkinsโ€”phase ii study of pembrolizumab and bavituximab for progressive recurrent/metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck . story_separator_special_tag revenue is recognized for these โ€œ bill-and-hold โ€ arrangements in accordance with the authoritative guidance , which requires , among other things , the existence of a valid business purpose for the arrangement ; the โ€œ bill-and-hold โ€ arrangement is at the request of the customer ; title and risk of ownership must pass to the customer ; the product is complete and ready for shipment ; a fixed delivery date that is reasonable and consistent with the customer 's business practices ; the product has been separated from our inventory ; and no further performance obligations by us exist . in addition , we also follow the authoritative guidance when reporting revenue as gross when we act as a principal versus reporting revenue as net when we act as an agent . for transactions in which we act as a principal , have discretion to choose suppliers , bear credit and inventory risk and perform a substantive part of the services , revenue is recorded at the gross amount billed to a customer and costs associated with these reimbursements are reflected as a component of cost of sales for contract manufacturing services . any amounts received prior to satisfying our revenue recognition criteria are recorded as deferred revenue or customer deposits in the accompanying consolidated financial statements . we also record a provision for estimated contract losses , if any , in the period in which they are determined . research and development expenses research and development expenses primarily include ( i ) payroll and related costs , including share-based compensation associated with research and development personnel , ( ii ) costs related to clinical trials and preclinical testing of our technologies under development , ( iii ) costs to develop and manufacture the product candidates , including raw materials and supplies , product testing , depreciation , and facility related expenses , ( iv ) expenses for research services provided by universities and contract laboratories , including sponsored research funding , and ( v ) other research and development expenses . research and development expenses are charged to expense as incurred when these expenditures relate to our research and development efforts and have no alternative future uses . clinical trial costs are a significant component of our research and development expenses . we have a history of contracting with third parties that perform various clinical trial activities on our behalf in the ongoing development of our product candidates . the financial terms of these contracts are subject to negotiations and may vary from contract to contract and may result in uneven payment flow . expenses related to clinical trials are accrued based on our estimates and or representations from third parties ( including clinical research organizations ) regarding services performed . if the contracted amounts are modified ( for instance , as a result of changes in the clinical trial protocol or scope of work to be performed ) , we modify our accruals accordingly on a prospective basis . revisions in the scope of a contract are charged to expense in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become reasonably certain . there were no material adjustments for a change in estimate to research and development expenses in the accompanying consolidated financial statements in any of the three years ended april 30 , 2017. under certain research and development agreements , we are obligated to make certain advance payments , including nonrefundable amounts , for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities and are deferred and capitalized as prepaid research and development expenses . these advance payments are recognized as an expense in the period the related goods are delivered or the related services are performed . we assess our prepaid research and development expenses for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the prepaid expense may not be recoverable or provide future economic benefit . 37 in addition , under certain in-licensing agreements associated with the research and development of our product candidates , we are obligated to pay certain milestone payments based on potential clinical development and regulatory milestones ( as described in note 4 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements ) . these milestone payments have no alternative future uses ( in other research and development projects or otherwise ) and therefore have no separate economic values and are expensed as research and development costs at the time the costs are incurred . we have no in-licensed product candidates that have alternative future uses in research and development projects or otherwise . in addition , we do not perform any research and development activities for any unrelated entities . share-based compensation we account for stock options and other share-based awards granted under our equity compensation plans in accordance with the authoritative guidance for share-based compensation . the estimated fair value of share-based payments to employees in exchange for services is measured at the grant date , using a fair value based method , such as a black-scholes option valuation model , and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods . the fair value of modifications to share-based awards , if any , is generally estimated using a black-scholes option valuation model , unless a lattice model is required . share-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of the share-based payment that is ultimately expected to vest during the period and is reduced for estimated forfeitures . the authoritative guidance requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised , if necessary , in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates . as of april 30 , 2017 , there were no outstanding share-based awards with market or performance conditions . the estimated fair value of stock options are measured at the grant

veracyte is now contracted as an in-network service provider to health plans representing over 200 million people in the united states our second commercial product , the percepta classifier , is the first genomic test to gain medicare coverage for improved lung cancer screening and diagnosis , making it a covered benefit for more than 60 million people . 50 fourth quarter and full-year 2018 financial results for the three- and twelve-month periods ended december 31 , 2018 , compared to the prior year : revenue was $ 25.8 million and $ 92.0 million , respectively , an increase of 31 % and 28 % ; gross margin was 66 % and 64 % , respectively , an increase of 6 % and 3 % ; operating expenses , excluding cost of revenue , were $ 20.1 million and $ 81.2 million , respectively , an increase of 12 % and 15 % ; net loss and comprehensive loss was ( $ 3.1 ) million and ( $ 23.0 ) million , respectively , an improvement of 63 % and 26 % ; basic and diluted net loss per common share was ( $ 0.08 ) and ( $ 0.62 ) , respectively , an improvement , of 67 % and 32 % ; net cash used in operating activities was $ 1.2 million and $ 13.5 million , respectively , an improvement of 79 % and 44 % ; cash burn ( 1 ) was $ 1.7 million and $ 15.4 million , respectively , an improvement of 73 % and 39 % ; and cash and cash equivalents was $ 78.0 million at december 31 , 2018 . ( 1 ) a reconciliation of net cash used in operating activities to cash burn has been provided below : to supplement our financial statements prepared in accordance with u. s. gaap , we monitor and consider cash burn , which is a non-u.s. gaap financial measure . this non-u.s. gaap financial measure is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by u.s. gaap and is not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies . we define cash burn as net cash used in operating activities plus net capital expenditures , such as net purchases of property and equipment . we believe cash burn to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash consumed by the operations of the business , including our purchases of property and equipment . a limitation of using this non-u.s. gaap measure is that cash burn does not represent the total change in cash , cash equivalents and restricted cash for the period because it excludes cash provided by or used for other investing and financing activities . we account for this limitation by providing information about our capital expenditures and other investing and financing activities in the statements of cash flows in our financial statements and by presenting cash flows from investing and financing activities in our reconciliation of cash burn . in addition , it is important to note that other companies , including companies in our industry , may not use cash burn , may calculate cash burn in a different manner than we do or may use other financial measures to evaluate their performance , all of which could reduce the usefulness of cash burn as a comparative measure . because of these limitations , cash burn should not be considered in isolation from , or as a substitute for , financial information prepared in accordance with u.s. gaap . the reconciliation of cash burn to net cash used in operating activities is provided in the table below ( in thousands of dollars ) : replace_table_token_4_th 2018 full-year and recent business highlights commercial expansion : grew total genomic test volume to 9,154 tests in

second-generation afirma genomic sequencing classifier ( gsc ) platform and launched the afirma xpression atlas to provide a comprehensive solution that informs both thyroid cancer diagnosis and treatment decisions . notably , 30 % of afirma gsc orders included xpression atlas in 2018 , ahead of the company 's expectations . grew percepta bronchial genomic classifier volume to nearly 1,550 tests in its first full year of commercialization , with genomic volume accelerating 74 % sequentially from the third quarter to the fourth quarter of 2018. esta blished 20 leading early access program ( eap ) sites across the united states for envisia in 2018 , addressing physician demand for patient access to the classifier which improves idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis ( ipf ) diagnosis and builds a solid foundation for the company to commercially expand it in 2019. biopharmaceutical collaborations executed a long-term strategic collaboration with johnson & johnson , llc and johnson & johnson 's lung cancer initiative to advance diagnostics , including a nasal swab test , for early lung cancer detection . veracyte estimates the combined monetary and non-monetary value of the collaboration to be more than $ 50 million . the company believes this collaboration expands its addressable lung cancer diagnostic market to a more than $ 30 billion global opportunity . entered into a research collaboration with loxo oncology , through which loxo has access to data from veracyte 's afirma xpression atlas platform to help in its development of therapies for patients with genetically defined cancers , including thyroid cancer . reimbursement progress : received draft medicare coverage for the envisia genomic classifier through the moldx program , with a final positive coverage decision expected in early 2019. achieved in-network status as a service provider with the last of the major commercial health plans , which veracyte believes will facilitate coverage and reimbursement for its percepta and envisia classifiers . story_separator_special_tag we have also incurred increased selling and marketing expense as a result of investments in our lung product portfolio and believe total selling and marketing expenses will continue to increase as we launch and promote our new tests . general and administrative general and administrative expenses include compensation expenses for executive officers and administrative , billing and client service personnel , professional fees for legal and audit services , occupancy costs , depreciation and amortization , and other expenses such as information technology and miscellaneous expenses offset by allocation of facility and information technology expenses to other functions . for the year ended december 31 , 2018 , approximately 66 % of the average headcount classified as general and administrative encompass our billing and customer care teams . we expect general and administrative expenses to continue to increase as we build our general and administration infrastructure and to stabilize thereafter . intangible asset amortization intangible asset amortization began in april 2015 when we

our management 's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our audited financial statements , which have been prepared in accordance with united states generally accepted accounting principles , or u.s. gaap . the preparation of the financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements , as well as the reported revenue generated and expenses incurred during the reporting periods . our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances , the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources . actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions and any such differences may be material . we believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance , as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management 's judgments and estimates . revenue from diagnostic services 56 we recognize revenue related to billings on an accrual basis based on estimates of the amount that will ultimately be realized . in determining the amount to accrue for a delivered test , we consider factors such as payment history , payer coverage , whether there is a reimbursement contract between the payer and us , payment as a percentage of agreed upon rate ( if applicable ) , amount paid per test and any current developments or changes that could impact reimbursement . these estimates require significant judgment by management . generally , we determine accrual rates based on the average reimbursement from payers for tests that are on average a year old , since it can take a significant period of time to collect from some payers . except in situations where we believe the rate we reasonably expect to collect to vary due to a coverage decision , contract , more recent reimbursement data or evidence to the contrary , we use an average of reimbursement for tests provided over four quarters as it reduces the effects of temporary volatility and seasonal effects . we use judgment in determining accrual rates and our judgments will continue to evolve in the future as we continue to gain reimbursement experience . arrangements with multiple-performance obligations from time to time , we enter into arrangements for the research and development and or commercialization of services . such arrangements may require us to deliver various rights , services and or samples , including intellectual property rights/licenses , research and development services , and or commercialization of services . the underlying terms of these arrangements generally provide for consideration to us in the form of nonrefundable upfront license fees , development and commercial performance milestone payments , royalty payments and or profit sharing . in arrangements involving more than one performance obligation , each required performance obligation is evaluated to determine whether it qualifies as a distinct performance obligation based on whether ( i ) the customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available and ( ii ) the good or service is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract . the consideration under the arrangement is then allocated to each separate distinct performance obligation based on its respective relative stand-alone selling price . the estimated selling price of each deliverable reflects our best estimate of what the selling price would be if the deliverable was regularly sold by us on a stand-alone basis or using an adjusted market assessment approach if selling price on a stand-alone basis is not available . the consideration allocated to each distinct performance obligation is recognized as revenue when control of the related goods or services is transferred . consideration associated with at-risk substantive performance milestones is recognized as revenue when it is probable that a significant reversal of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur . should there be royalties , we utilize the sales and usage-based royalty exception in arrangements that resulted from the license of intellectual property , recognizing revenues generated from royalties or profit sharing as the underlying sales occur . other significant accounting

( 1 ) a reconciliation of net cash used in operating activities to cash burn has been provided below : to supplement our financial statements prepared in accordance with u. s. gaap , we monitor and consider cash burn , which is a non-u.s. gaap financial measure . this non-u.s. gaap financial measure is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by u.s. gaap and is not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies . we define cash burn as net cash used in operating activities plus net capital expenditures , such as net purchases of property and equipment . we believe cash burn to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash consumed by the operations of the business , including our purchases of property and equipment . a limitation of using this non-u.s. gaap measure is that cash burn does not represent the total change in cash , cash equivalents and restricted cash for the period because it excludes cash provided by or used for other investing and financing activities . we account for this limitation by providing information about our capital expenditures and other investing and financing activities in the statements of cash flows in our financial statements and by presenting cash flows from investing and financing activities in our reconciliation of cash burn . in addition , it is important to note that other companies , including companies in our industry , may not use cash burn , may calculate cash burn in a different manner than we do or may use other financial measures to evaluate their performance , all of which could reduce the usefulness of cash burn as a comparative measure . because of these limitations , cash burn should not be considered in isolation from , or as a substitute for , financial information prepared in accordance with u.s. gaap . the reconciliation of cash burn to net cash used in operating activities is

on december 21 , 2012 , we amended the senior credit facility to reduce the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio from 1.35x to 1.25x through expiration in september 2014. at-the-market preferred stock offering - in september 2011 , we entered into an at-the-market ( โ€œ atm โ€ ) program with an investment banking firm , pursuant to which we may issue up to 700,000 shares of 8.55 % series a cumulative preferred stock and up to 700,000 shares of 8.45 % series d cumulative preferred stock at market prices up to $ 30.0 million in total proceeds . the atm program remains in effect until such time that either party elects to terminate or the share or dollar threshholds are reached . on march 2 , 2012 , we commenced issuances of preferred stock and during the first two quarters of the year ended december 31 , 2012 , we issued 169,306 shares of 8.55 % series a cumulative preferred stock for gross proceeds of $ 4.2 million and 501,909 shares of 8.45 % series d cumulative preferred stock for gross proceeds of $ 12.3 million . such proceeds , net of commissions and other expenses , were $ 16.0 million for the year ended december 31 , 2012. refinanced our $ 167.2 million mortgage loan - on may 9 , 2012 , we refinanced our $ 167.2 million mortgage loan , due may 2012 , and having an interest rate of libor plus 1.65 % , with a $ 135.0 million mortgage loan , due may 2014 with three one-year extension options and an interest rate of libor plus 6.50 % . as a result , our doubletree guest suites hotel property in columbus , ohio , which was one of ten hotels securing our $ 167.2 million mortgage loan , was no longer encumbered and later sold as the nine remaining hotels secure our $ 135.0 million mortgage loan . disposition of hotel properties - during the second quarter of 2012 we determined that the hilton el conquistador in tuscon , arizona was not to be held long-term as operating cash flows were not anticipated to cover principal and interest payments of the related debt secured by this hotel . in addition , regarding this loan , we ceased making principal and interest 37 payments after july 31 , 2012. based on our assessment , which included marketing this hotel for sale , we concluded that the carrying value of this asset would not be recoverable . consequently , in the second quarter of 2012 , we recognized an impairment charge of $ 4.1 million related to this hotel , which reduced its carrying value to $ 19.7 million and represented our estimate of its fair value . effective august 15 , 2012 , via a consensual foreclosure with our lender , a receiver appointed by pima county superior court in arizona completed taking possession and full control of this hotel . the hotel was disposed of in december 2012 when title passed to the lender . additionally we sold our doubletree guest suites hotel in columbus , ohio in november 2012 for net proceeds of $ 7.7 million . the results of operations of these hotels will be included in discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented . refinanced our $ 153.9 million mortgage loan - on november 7 , 2012 , we refinanced our $ 153.9 million non-recourse mortgage loan set to mature in december 2015 , and having an interest rate of 12.72 % , with a $ 211.0 million mortgage loan due november 2014 with three one-year extension options . the new loan is interest only and provides for a floating interest rate of libor plus 6.15 % with a 0.25 % libor floor . the new loan remains secured by the same five hotels including : the embassy suites crystal city , embassy suites orlando airport , embassy suites santa clara , embassy suites portland and the hilton costa mesa . liquidity and capital resources our cash position from operations is affected primarily by macro industry movements in occupancy and rate as well as our ability to control costs . further , interest rates can greatly affect the cost of our debt service as well as the value of any financial hedges we may put in place . we monitor industry fundamentals and interest rates very closely . capital expenditures above our reserves will affect cash flow as well . certain of our loan agreements contain cash trap provisions that may get triggered if the performance of our hotels decline . when these provisions are triggered , substantially all of the profit generated by our hotels is deposited directly into lockbox accounts and then swept into cash management accounts for the benefit of our various lenders . cash is distributed to us only after certain items are paid , including deposits into ground leasing and maintenance reserves and the payment of debt service , insurance , taxes , operating expenses , and extraordinary capital expenditures and ground leasing expenses . this could affect our liquidity and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders . also , we have entered into certain customary guaranty agreements pursuant to which we guaranty payment of any recourse liabilities of our subsidiaries or joint ventures that may result from non-recourse carve-outs , which include , but are not limited to fraud , misrepresentation , willful misconduct resulting in waste , misappropriations of rents following an event of default , voluntary bankruptcy filings , unpermitted transfers of collateral , and certain environmental liabilities . certain of these guarantees represent a guaranty of material amounts , and if we are required to make payments under those guarantees , our liquidity could be adversely affected .

interest we acquired in a joint venture at no cost , income of $ 289,000 from a previously written-off mezzanine loan and the credit default swap premium amortization of $ 31,000. interest expense and amortization of loan costs . interest expense and amortization of loan costs increased $ 7.6 million to $ 144.8 million for 2012 from $ 137.2 million for 2011 . the increase is primarily due to higher interest expense of $ 6.1 million primarily attributable to higher interest rates associated with mortgage loans refinanced in december 2011 and may 2012 partially offset by lower interest associated with our senior credit facility which was repaid in 2011. the remaining increase is due to higher loan cost amortization of $ 1.5 million . the average libor rates for 2012 and 2011 were 0.24 % and 0.23 % , respectively . write-off of premiums , loan costs and exit fees . in 2012 , we refinanced our $ 167.2 million mortgage loan and our $ 153.9 million mortgage loan which resulted in the write-off of the associated unamortized deferred loan costs of $ 1.9 million . we also incurred prepayment penalties of $ 2.1 million associated with our $ 153.9 million mortgage loan . in 2011 , we repaid the outstanding balance on the $ 250.0 million senior credit facility , terminated the credit facility , and wrote-off the unamortized deferred loan cost of $ 729,000. unrealized gain ( loss ) on investments . unrealized gain ( loss ) on investments of $ 2.5 million and $ ( 391,000 ) for 2012 and 2011 , respectively , are based on changes in closing market prices during the period or , if

derivatives and an unrealized loss of $ 1.3 million related to credit default swaps entered into in 2011. the fair value of interest-rate derivatives is primarily based on movements in the libor forward curve and the passage of time . the fair value of credit default swaps is based on the change in value of cmbx indices . income tax expense . we recorded income tax expense of $ 2.4 million and $ 1.6 million for 2012 and 2011 , respectively . the increase in income tax expense in 2012 is primarily due to the texas margin tax . our texas margin tax was significantly lower in 2011 as we recorded a large benefit for the tax write-off of certain mezzanine loans for the 2010 tax year that was not anticipated at december 31 , 2010. loss from discontinued operations . for 2012 , loss from

repayments of indebtedness , $ 71.6 million for dividend payments to common and preferred stockholders and unit holders , $ 10.4 million for payments of deferred loan costs and $ 1.9 million for distributions to noncontrolling interests in joint ventures . ``` Suspicious Activity Report : on december 21 , 2012 , we amended the senior credit facility to reduce the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio from 1.35x to 1.25x through expiration in september 2014. at-the-market preferred stock offering - in september 2011 , we entered into an at-the-market ( โ€œ atm โ€ ) program with an investment banking firm , pursuant to which we may issue up to 700,000 shares of 8.55 % series a cumulative preferred stock and up to 700,000 shares of 8.45 % series d cumulative preferred stock at market prices up to $ 30.0 million in total proceeds . the atm program remains in effect until such time that either party elects to terminate or the share or dollar threshholds are reached . on march 2 , 2012 , we commenced issuances of preferred stock and during the first two quarters of the year ended december 31 , 2012 , we issued 169,306 shares of 8.55 % series a cumulative preferred stock for gross proceeds of $ 4.2 million and 501,909 shares of 8.45 % series d cumulative preferred stock for gross proceeds of $ 12.3 million . such proceeds , net of commissions and other expenses , were $ 16.0 million for the year ended december 31 , 2012. refinanced our $ 167.2 million mortgage loan - on may 9 , 2012 , we refinanced our $ 167.2 million mortgage loan , due may 2012 , and having an interest rate of libor plus 1.65 % , with a $ 135.0 million mortgage loan , due may 2014 with three one-year extension options and an interest rate of libor plus 6.50 % . as a result , our doubletree guest suites hotel property in columbus , ohio , which was one of ten hotels securing our $ 167.2 million mortgage loan , was no longer encumbered and later sold as the nine remaining hotels secure our $ 135.0 million mortgage loan . disposition of hotel properties - during the second quarter of 2012 we determined that the hilton el conquistador in tuscon , arizona was not to be held long-term as operating cash flows were not anticipated to cover principal and interest payments of the related debt secured by this hotel . in addition , regarding this loan , we ceased making principal and interest 37 payments after july 31 , 2012. based on our assessment , which included marketing this hotel for sale , we concluded that the carrying value of this asset would not be recoverable . consequently , in the second quarter of 2012 , we recognized an impairment charge of $ 4.1 million related to this hotel , which reduced its carrying value to $ 19.7 million and represented our estimate of its fair value . effective august 15 , 2012 , via a consensual foreclosure with our lender , a receiver appointed by pima county superior court in arizona completed taking possession and full control of this hotel . the hotel was disposed of in december 2012 when title passed to the lender . additionally we sold our doubletree guest suites hotel in columbus , ohio in november 2012 for net proceeds of $ 7.7 million . the results of operations of these hotels will be included in discontinued operations in our consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented . refinanced our $ 153.9 million mortgage loan - on november 7 , 2012 , we refinanced our $ 153.9 million non-recourse mortgage loan set to mature in december 2015 , and having an interest rate of 12.72 % , with a $ 211.0 million mortgage loan due november 2014 with three one-year extension options . the new loan is interest only and provides for a floating interest rate of libor plus 6.15 % with a 0.25 % libor floor . the new loan remains secured by the same five hotels including : the embassy suites crystal city , embassy suites orlando airport , embassy suites santa clara , embassy suites portland and the hilton costa mesa . liquidity and capital resources our cash position from operations is affected primarily by macro industry movements in occupancy and rate as well as our ability to control costs . further , interest rates can greatly affect the cost of our debt service as well as the value of any financial hedges we may put in place . we monitor industry fundamentals and interest rates very closely . capital expenditures above our reserves will affect cash flow as well . certain of our loan agreements contain cash trap provisions that may get triggered if the performance of our hotels decline . when these provisions are triggered , substantially all of the profit generated by our hotels is deposited directly into lockbox accounts and then swept into cash management accounts for the benefit of our various lenders . cash is distributed to us only after certain items are paid , including deposits into ground leasing and maintenance reserves and the payment of debt service , insurance , taxes , operating expenses , and extraordinary capital expenditures and ground leasing expenses . this could affect our liquidity and our ability to make distributions to our stockholders . also , we have entered into certain customary guaranty agreements pursuant to which we guaranty payment of any recourse liabilities of our subsidiaries or joint ventures that may result from non-recourse carve-outs , which include , but are not limited to fraud , misrepresentation , willful misconduct resulting in waste , misappropriations of rents following an event of default , voluntary bankruptcy filings , unpermitted transfers of collateral , and certain environmental liabilities . certain of these guarantees represent a guaranty of material amounts , and if we are required to make payments under those guarantees , our liquidity could be adversely affected . story_separator_special_tag for 2011 , other income also included a gain of $ 30.0 million recognized from a litigation settlement , income of $ 9.7 million recognized from the 11 % of ownership interest we acquired in a joint venture at no cost , income of $ 289,000 from a previously written-off mezzanine loan and the credit default swap premium amortization of $ 31,000. interest expense and amortization of loan costs . interest expense and amortization of loan costs increased $ 7.6 million to $ 144.8 million for 2012 from $ 137.2 million for 2011 . the increase is primarily due to higher interest expense of $ 6.1 million primarily attributable to higher interest rates associated with mortgage loans refinanced in december 2011 and may 2012 partially offset by lower interest associated with our senior credit facility which was repaid in 2011. the remaining increase is due to higher loan cost amortization of $ 1.5 million . the average libor rates for 2012 and 2011 were 0.24 % and 0.23 % , respectively . write-off of premiums , loan costs and exit fees . in 2012 , we refinanced our $ 167.2 million mortgage loan and our $ 153.9 million mortgage loan which resulted in the write-off of the associated unamortized deferred loan costs of $ 1.9 million . we also incurred prepayment penalties of $ 2.1 million associated with our $ 153.9 million mortgage loan . in 2011 , we repaid the outstanding balance on the $ 250.0 million senior credit facility , terminated the credit facility , and wrote-off the unamortized deferred loan cost of $ 729,000. unrealized gain ( loss ) on investments . unrealized gain ( loss ) on investments of $ 2.5 million and $ ( 391,000 ) for 2012 and 2011 , respectively , are based on changes in closing market prices during the period or , if derivatives , overall security market fluctuations . unrealized gain ( loss ) on derivatives . for 2012 , we recorded an unrealized loss of $ 35.7 million , consisting of $ 31.7 million related to interest-rate derivatives and $ 3.9 million related to credit default swaps . in 2011 , we recorded an unrealized loss of $ 70.3 million related to losses of $ 69.0 million on interest-rate derivatives and an unrealized loss of $ 1.3 million related to credit default swaps entered into in 2011. the fair value of interest-rate derivatives is primarily based on movements in the libor forward curve and the passage of time . the fair value of credit default swaps is based on the change in value of cmbx indices . income tax expense . we recorded income tax expense of $ 2.4 million and $ 1.6 million for 2012 and 2011 , respectively . the increase in income tax expense in 2012 is primarily due to the texas margin tax . our texas margin tax was significantly lower in 2011 as we recorded a large benefit for the tax write-off of certain mezzanine loans for the 2010 tax year that was not anticipated at december 31 , 2010. loss from discontinued operations . for 2012 , loss from discontinued operations was $ 3.7 million related to two hotel properties disposed of in 2012. the hilton hotel in tuscon , arizona was disposed of in december 2012. the doubetree guest suites hotel in columbus , ohio was sold in november 2012 for net proceeds of $ 7.7 million . we recorded an impairment charge of $ 4.1 million related to the hilton hotel and a net gain of $ 4.5 million upon disposition of these hotels . for 2011 , loss from 43 discontinued operations was $ 7.9 million , which includes the two aforementioned hotels as well as four hotels sold in 2011. the jw marriott san francisco in california , the hilton rye town in new york , and the hampton inn houston in texas were sold in the first quarter of 2011 and the hampton inn hotel in jacksonville , florida , was sold in the third quarter of 2011. the 2011 period included an impairment charge of $ 6.2 million related to the hampton inn hotel in jacksonville , florida and a net gain of $ 2.6 million related to sales of these hotels . income from consolidated joint ventures attributable to noncontrolling interests . noncontrolling interest partners in consolidated joint ventures were allocated income of $ 868,000 and $ 610,000 during 2012 and 2011 , respectively . in 2011 , we recorded a gain of $ 2.1 million from the sale of the hampton inn hotel in houston , texas , that was held by a joint venture . net loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests in operating partnership . noncontrolling interests in operating partnership were allocated net loss of $ 9.3 million and $ 2.8 million in 2012 and 2011 , respectively . redeemable noncontrolling interests represented ownership interests of 12.92 % and 11.43 % in the operating partnership at december 31 , 2012 and december 31 , 2011 , respectively . comparison of year ended december 31 , 2011 with year ended december 31 , 2010 income from continuing operations represents the operating results of 94 hotel properties ( โ€œ comparable hotels โ€ ) and worldquest included in continuing operations for the years ended

although the company 's consumer products generally are consumer staples and less vulnerable to decreases in discretionary spending than other products , the continued economic downturn has reduced demand in many categories , particularly those in personal care , and affected company sales in recent periods . some customers have responded to economic conditions by increasing their private label offerings ( primarily in the dietary supplements , diagnostic kits and oral analgesics categories ) , and consolidating the product selections they offer to the top few leading brands in each category . in addition , an increasing portion of the company 's product categories are being sold by club stores , dollar stores and mass merchandisers . these customer actions have placed downward pressure on the company 's sales and gross margins . the company expects the challenging conditions of the last several years to continue in 2014 primarily due to continued weak consumer demand in many categories , new product introductions by competitors and continuing aggressive competitive pricing pressures . in the u.s. , a continued slowdown in income growth , the unemployment rate and the uncertainty of unemployment benefits for the long-term unemployed may also adversely impact consumption patterns . to continue to deliver attractive results for stockholders in this environment , the company intends to continue to aggressively pursue several key strategic initiatives : maintain competitive marketing and trade spending , tightly control its cost structure , continue to develop and launch new and differentiated products , and pursue strategic acquisitions . the company also intends to continue to grow its product sales geographically ( in an attempt to mitigate the impact of weakness in any one area ) , and maintain an offering of premium and value brand products ( to appeal to a wide range of consumers ) . the company continues to experience heightened competitive activity in certain product categories from other larger multinational competitors , some of which have greater resources . such activities have included new product introductions , more aggressive product claims and marketing challenges , as well as increased promotional spending . since the 2012 introduction in the u.s. of unit dose laundry detergent by various manufacturers , including the company , there has been significant product and price competition in the laundry detergent category , contributing to an overall category decline . during 2012 , the category declined by 0.6 % and during 2013 , the category declined an additional 3.2 % . while the company 's laundry detergent sales have increased , more than offsetting the impact of the total laundry detergent category decline , there is no assurance that the category will not decline further or that the company will be able to offset any such category decline . moreover , p & g , one of the company 's major competitors and the market leader in premium laundry detergent , including unit dose laundry detergent , has recently reconfigured certain of its product offerings and related marketing and pricing strategies and launched various products to compete more directly with the company 's core arm & hammer , xtra and oxiclean power brands . for example , in 2014 , p & g is launching a lower-priced laundry detergent to compete directly with the company 's core value laundry detergents , is attempting to leverage its leadership position in unit dose laundry detergent with the introduction of 36 church & dwight co. , inc. and subsidiaries ( dollars in millions , except share and per share data ) a premium unit dose offering , and has launched a versatile stain remover , all of which are expected to be supported by aggressive trade spending and marketing . these actions , together with expected ongoing weak consumer spending and increased price competition , could negatively impact the company 's laundry detergent and versatile stain remover businesses . the company is responding to these competitive pressures by , among other things , focusing on strengthening its key brands , including increased focus on the arm & hammer , oxiclean , trojan and l'il critters and vitafusion mega brands , which each span various product categories and represented approximately 60 % of the company 's sales and profits in 2013 , through the launch of innovative new products and strong sales execution supported by increased marketing and trade spending . these mega brands have advantages over other power brands , including the ability to leverage research and development and marketing investments and lower overhead costs across mega brand categories . for example , the company 's 2014 responsive product introductions include the simultaneous launch of oxiclean branded products into the mid/premium tier laundry detergent segment , auto dish detergent category and bleach alternatives with continued support of , and innovation in , the company 's base arm & hammer and oxiclean businesses , to create scale and maximize marketing efforts . mega brand launches and launches of other products are anticipated to contribute more incremental new product revenue than the introduction of new products has in prior years , and a significant portion of those revenues will include expansion into new categories with premium household products , supported by increased levels of slotting , trade promotions and incremental marketing support and planned ongoing technology investment . there can be no assurance that these measures will be successful . despite challenging economic conditions and customer responses to these conditions , the company was able to grow market share in six of nine of its ย“power brandsย” in 2013 , including laundry detergent . the company 's global product portfolio consists of both premium ( 55 % of total revenue in 2013 ) and value ( 45 % of total revenue in 2013 ) brands , which it believes enables it to succeed in a range of economic environments . story_separator_special_tag the company 's weighted average discount rate for its international pension plans as of december 31 , 2013 is 4.48 % as compared to 4.16 % used at december 31 , 2012. based on the published rate as of december 31 , 2013 that matched estimated cash flows for the plans , the company used a weighted average discount rate of 4.56 % for its postretirement plans as compared to 3.89 % used at december 31 , 2012 . 41 church & dwight co. , inc. and subsidiaries ( dollars in millions , except share and per share data ) the expected long-term rate of return on international pension plan assets is selected by taking into account the historical trend , the expected duration of the projected benefit obligation for the plans , the asset mix of the plans and known economic and market conditions at the time of valuation . based on these factors , the company 's weighted average expected long-term rate of return for assets of its pension plans for 2013 was 5.45 % , compared to 5.35 % used in 2012. a 50 basis point change in the expected long-term rate of return would result in an approximate $ 0.5 change in pension expense for 2014. as noted above , changes in assumptions used by management may result in material changes in the company 's pension and postretirement benefit costs . in 2013 , other comprehensive income reflected a $ 5.0 decrease in its remaining pension plan obligations and a $ 6.6 decrease for postretirement benefit plans . the changes are related to the change in discount rates for all plans and other actuarial assumptions . the company made cash contributions of approximately $ 17.5 to its pension plans in 2013 , including voluntary contributions of $ 13.0. the company estimates it will be required to make cash contributions to its pension plans of approximately $ 3.4 in 2014 to offset 2014 benefit payments and administrative costs in excess of investment returns . income taxes income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method . deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized to reflect the future tax consequences attributable to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases , and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards . deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the differences are expected to be recovered or settled . management provides a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets for amounts which are not considered ย“more likely than notย” to be realized . the company records liabilities for potential assessments in various tax jurisdictions under asc topic 740 , income taxes . the liabilities relate to tax return positions that , although supportable by the company , may be challenged by the tax authorities and do not meet the minimum recognition threshold required under applicable accounting guidance for the related tax benefit to be recognized in the income statement . the company adjusts this liability as a result of changes in tax legislation , interpretations of laws by courts , rulings by tax authorities , changes in estimates and the expiration of the statute of limitations . many of the judgments involved in adjusting the liability involve assumptions and estimates that are highly uncertain and subject to change . in this regard , settlement of any issue , or an adverse determination in litigation , with a taxing authority could require the use of cash and result in an increase in the company 's annual tax rate . conversely , favorable resolution of an issue with a taxing authority would be recognized as a reduction to the company 's annual tax rate . new accounting pronouncements during the first quarter of 2013 , the financial accounting standards board ( ย“fasbย” ) issued guidance for the reporting of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income . the guidance requires an entity to present information about significant items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or as a separate disclosure in the notes to the financial statements . the company elected to present the requirements in the notes to the financial statements ( see note 15 ) . the adoption of the new pronouncement did not have an impact on the company 's consolidated financial position , results of operations or cash flows . in july 2013 , the fasb issued guidance requiring an entity to net its liability for unrecognized tax benefits against the deferred tax assets for all same jurisdiction net operating losses or similar tax loss carryforwards or tax credit carryforwards . a gross presentation will be required only if such carryforwards are not available as of 42 church & dwight co. , inc. and subsidiaries ( dollars in millions , except share and per share data ) reporting date to settle any additional income taxes resulting from disallowance of the uncertain tax position or the entity does not intend to use these carryforwards for this purpose . the new guidance is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after december 15 , 2013 and interim periods within those years . this new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the company 's consolidated financial position , results of operations or cash flows . there have been no other accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted by the company which are expected to have a material impact on the company 's consolidated financial position , results of operations or cash flows . 43 church & dwight co. , inc. and subsidiaries ( dollars in millions , except share and per share data ) results of operations

liabilities for potential assessments in various tax jurisdictions under asc topic 740 , income taxes . the liabilities relate to tax return positions that , although supportable by the company , may be challenged by the tax authorities and do not meet the minimum recognition threshold required under applicable accounting guidance for the related tax benefit to be recognized in the income statement . the company adjusts this liability as a result of changes in tax legislation , interpretations of laws by courts , rulings by tax authorities , changes in estimates and the expiration of the statute of limitations . many of the judgments involved in adjusting the liability involve assumptions and estimates that are highly uncertain and subject to change . in this regard , settlement of any issue , or an adverse determination in litigation , with a taxing authority could require the use of cash and result in an increase in the company 's annual tax rate . conversely , favorable resolution of an issue with a taxing authority would be recognized as a reduction to the company 's annual tax rate . new accounting pronouncements during the first quarter of 2013 , the financial accounting standards board ( ย“fasbย” ) issued guidance for the reporting of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income . the guidance requires an entity to present information about significant items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or as a separate disclosure in the notes to the financial statements . the company elected to present the requirements in the notes to the financial statements ( see note 15 ) . the adoption of the new pronouncement did not have an impact on the

34 the table below shows average crude oil and natural gas prices for west texas intermediate crude oil ( wti ) , united kingdom brent crude oil ( brent ) , and henry hub natural gas : replace_table_token_7_th average oil prices were approximately 7 % lower in 2014 than 2013. average natural gas prices were approximately 17 % higher in 2014 than 2013. these oil and natural gas price levels during 2014 were sufficient to support high levels of exploration and production activity , including the continued development of offshore projects . oil prices experienced a significant decline in the second half of 2014 , declining over 17 % from the average price during the first half and ending the year more than 50 % off their june peak . as of february 25 , 2015 , the west texas intermediate oil price has continued to decline another 7 % from the end of 2014. we expect the precipitous decline in oil prices over the last several months to have a significant negative impact on spending by our customers and therefore on our results of operations in 2015. in addition to the commodity price levels , the average active rig count data below , based on the weekly baker hughes incorporated rig count , reflect a broad measure of industry activity and resultant demand for our drilling , completion and production related products and services . replace_table_token_8_th generally , our sales are impacted by changes in rig activity and wells completed . the average u.s. rig count increased 6 % from 2013 , the international rig count increased 3 % from 2013 and the canadian rig count remained stable . the u.s. rig count peaked in september 2014 at 1,931 rigs . as a result of lower oil prices , the u.s. rig count experienced a 5 % decline in the fourth quarter . as of february 25 , 2015 , the u.s. rig count has continued to decline an additional 29 % from the end of 2014. many oil and gas companies have announced substantially reduced capital spending plans , which is expected to result in a significant decline in the rig count in 2015 . 35 in addition to the absolute number of active rigs , due to greater application of improved drilling and completion technologies , the current rig fleet is becoming more efficient , allowing more wells to be drilled per rig . the trends in the capabilities of the rig fleet are reflected in the table above through the increases in horizontal and directional drilling rigs as a portion of the total rig count . although well completions are expected to decrease in 2015 , we expect the decline to be less than the decrease in the overall rig count . acquisitions on may 1 , 2014 , we completed the acquisition of quality wireline & cable , inc. ( `` quality `` ) for consideration of $ 38.3 million . quality is a calgary , alberta based manufacturer of high-performance cased-hole electro-mechanical wireline cables and specialty cables for the oil and gas industry . quality is included in the drilling & subsea segment . on july 1 , 2013 , we completed two acquisitions and an investment in a joint venture for aggregate consideration of approximately $ 230.0 million , each of which were financed with cash on hand and borrowings under our credit facility . the three transactions included the following : b+v oil tools , a manufacturer of pipe handling equipment used on offshore and onshore drilling rigs with locations in hamburg , germany and willis , texas . b+v oil tools is included in the drilling & subsea segment ; moffat , a newcastle , england based manufacturer of subsea pipeline inspection gauge launching and receiving systems , and subsea connectors . moffat is included in the drilling & subsea segment ; and the joint purchase of global tubing with an equal partner , with management retaining a small interest . global tubing is a dayton , texas based provider of coiled tubing strings and related services . our equity investment is reported in the production & infrastructure segment and is accounted for using the equity method of accounting . none of these transactions included potential future payments contingent on financial performance . we completed four acquisitions in the fourth quarter 2012 , syntech technology , incorporated , wireline solutions , llc , dynacon , inc. and merrimac manufacturing , inc. , all of which are included in the drilling & subsea segment . we paid aggregate cash consideration of approximately $ 139.7 million for these acquisitions in 2012. there are factors related to the businesses we have acquired that may result in lower net profit margins on a going-forward basis , primarily the federal income tax status of the legal entity and the level of depreciation and amortization charges arising out of the accounting for the purchase . in february 2015 , we completed the acquisition of j-mac tool , inc. ( โ€œ j-mac โ€ ) for aggregate consideration of approximately $ 65.0 million . j-mac , located in fort worth , texas , manufactures hydraulic fracturing pumps , power ends , fluid ends and other pump accessories . the acquired business also provides repair and refurbishment services at its main location in fort worth and at other service center locations . j-mac will be included in the production & infrastructure segment . for additional information regarding our 2014 , 2013 , and 2012 acquisitions , please read note 3 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in part ii , item 8 `` financial statements and supplementary data `` of this annual report on form 10-k. evaluation of operations we manage our operations through the two business segments described above . story_separator_special_tag the cost saving measures implemented in the second half of the year , coupled with increased shipments of the longer dated international orders received in the first half of the year , contributed to good margin recovery for drilling products in the second half of 2013. we also experienced a decline in our downhole products operating margin percentage as a higher proportion of shipments were destined for lower margin international projects . production & infrastructure segment โ€” operating margin percentage declined 170 basis points to 14.8 % for the year ended december 31 , 2013 , from 16.5 % for the year ended december 31 , 2012. the decline in operating margin percentage is attributable to lower margins in well stimulation products on significantly lower activity levels and increased pricing competition . the decline was offset partially by the inclusion of $ 7.3 million of equity in earnings of the global tubing llc joint venture in the second half of 2013. corporate โ€” selling , general and administrative expenses for corporate increased $ 8.8 million , or 42.7 % , for the year ended december 31 , 2013 compared to the year ended december 31 , 2012 due to higher personnel costs and various professional fees primarily associated with being a publicly traded company and complying with applicable regulations . corporate costs included , among other items , payroll related costs for general management and management of finance and administration , legal , human resources and information technology ; professional fees for external legal , accounting and related services ; and marketing costs . corporate costs also included $ 0.4 million in severance charges in 2013 . 42 other items not included in segment operating income several items are not included in segment operating income , but are included in total operating income . these items include : transaction expenses , gains/losses from the sale of assets , contingent consideration and impairment of intangible assets . transaction expenses relate to legal and other advisory costs incurred in acquiring businesses and are not considered to be part of segment operating income . including $ 0.8 million reported as part of equity in earnings of global tubing llc , transaction costs were $ 3.5 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013 , for two acquisitions and an investment in a joint venture all closed effective july 1 , 2013 , and $ 1.8 million for the year ended december 31 , 2012. refer to note 3 , acquisitions , for further information . the contingent consideration credit recorded during the year ended december 31 , 2012 was related to two acquisitions in 2011 in which part of the purchase price was payable in cash and or shares of the our common stock based on the earnings of the acquired entities through the end of 2012. the net change in the accrual was recorded as part of operating income , and the reduction in this obligation resulted in an increase to operating income of $ 4.6 million during the year ended december 31 , 2012. during the year ended december 31 , 2012 , an impairment loss of $ 1.2 million was recorded on certain intangible assets resulting from a lack of orders related to a specific service line . other income and expense other income and expense includes interest expense , foreign exchange gains and losses and deferred loan costs written off . we incurred $ 18.4 million of interest expense during the year ended december 31 , 2013 , an increase of $ 2.0 million from the year ended december 31 , 2012. the increase in interest expense was partially attributable to an increase in debt incurred to finance the two acquisitions and an investment in a joint venture completed in the third quarter 2013 , and a higher interest rate under our senior notes issued in the fourth quarter 2013 compared to the variable interest rate under our credit facility . the term loan under our credit facility was paid off from the net proceeds on our senior notes . accordingly , unamortized debt issue costs of $ 2.1 million associated with the term loan were charged to expense during 2013. taxes tax expense includes current income taxes expected to be due based on taxable income to be reported during the periods in the various jurisdictions in which we conduct business , and deferred income taxes based on changes in the tax effect of temporary differences between the bases of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and tax purposes at the beginning and end of the respective periods . the effective tax rate , calculated by dividing total tax expense by income before income taxes , was 30.4 % and 32.0 % for the years ended december 31 , 2013 and 2012 , respectively . the effective tax rate for the year ended december 31 , 2013 is lower than the comparable period in 2012 primarily due to a higher proportion of our earnings being generated outside the united states in jurisdictions subject to lower tax rates and due to a reduction in the tax provision from the finalization of certain prior year tax returns . liquidity and capital resources sources and uses of liquidity our internal sources of liquidity are cash on hand and cash flows from operations , while our primary external sources have included our credit facility described below , trade credit , the issuance of our senior notes described below and sales of our common stock . our primary uses of capital have been for acquisitions , ongoing maintenance and growth capital expenditures , inventories and sales on credit to our customers . we continually monitor potential capital sources , including equity and debt financing , to meet our investment and target liquidity requirements . our future success and growth will be highly dependent on our ability to continue to access outside sources of capital . at december 31 , 2014 , we had
net cash provided by operating activities was $ 211.4 million and $ 137.9 million for the years ended december 31 , 2013 and 2012 , respectively . cash provided by operations increased as a result of reduced investments in working capital as compared to the prior year , primarily inventory , which added $ 33.1 million as compared to the use of cash of $ 100.3 million in the prior year . offsetting the positive impacts of the reduced investments in working capital was a 44 decrease in net income to $ 129.6 million for the year ended december 31 , 2013 , from $ 151.5 million for the year ended december 31 , 2012 . our operating cash flows are sensitive to a number of variables , the most significant of which is the level of drilling and production activity for oil and natural gas reserves . these activity levels are in turn impacted by the volatility of oil and natural gas prices , regional and worldwide economic activity and its effect on demand for hydrocarbons , weather , infrastructure capacity to reach markets and other variable factors . these factors are beyond our control and are difficult to predict . cash flows used in investing activities net cash used in investing activities was $ 70.7 million and $ 289.0 million for the year ended december 31 , 2014 and 2013 , respectively , a $ 218.3 million decrease . the decrease was primarily due to consideration of $ 38.3 million paid for an acquisition during the year ended december 31 , 2014 compared to the consideration of $ 229.7 million paid for two acquisitions and an investment in a joint venture closed during the year ended december 31 , 2013 . additionally , a lower investment in property and equipment of $ 53.8 million was made during the year ended december 31 , 2014 compared an investment of $ 60.3 million during the year ended december 31 , 2013 .

accordingly , the results of medicomp , inc. , including the gain recognized on its disposal , have been included in discontinued operations for each of the three years in the three-year period ended december 31 , 2011 on our consolidated statements of operations . refer to note 18 ย— sale of medicomp , inc. to our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report on form 10-k for details . revenues sales of remodulin comprise the largest share of our revenues . other significant sources of revenues include sales of tyvaso and adcirca . sales of tyvaso and adcirca have continued to grow since their commercial introduction in 2009 , as each of these therapies has gained broader market acceptance . we sell remodulin and tyvaso in the united states to our specialty pharmaceutical distributors : accredo health group , inc. , curascript , inc. and cvs caremark . adcirca is sold to pharmaceutical wholesalers that are part of lilly 's pharmaceutical wholesaler network . we also sell remodulin to distributors outside of the united states . on july 21 , 2011 , express scripts , inc. , the parent company of curascript , announced the signing of a merger agreement with medco health solutions , inc. , the parent company of accredo . the parties announced that the merger , which is subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals , is expected to close in the first half of 2012. presently , we do not expect the merger , if approved , to materially affect our business . we require our distributors to maintain reasonable levels of contingent inventory at all times as the interruption of remodulin or tyvaso therapy can be life threatening . consequently , sales of these therapies in any given quarter may not precisely reflect patient demand . our distributors typically place monthly orders based on estimates of future demand and considerations of contractual minimum inventory requirements . as a result , sales volume of remodulin and tyvaso can vary , depending on the timing and magnitude of these orders . the patient protection and affordable care act , as amended by the health care and education reconciliation act ( collectively , the acts ) contains broad provisions that will be implemented over the next several years . we are continually evaluating the impact of the acts on our business ; however , our evaluation is dependent upon the issuance of final regulations and the impact this legislation will have on insurance companies and their relationships with drug manufacturers . on january 1 , 2011 , certain provisions of the acts that address the coverage gap in the medicare part d prescription drug program ( commonly known as the `` donut hole `` ) became effective . under these provisions , drug manufacturers are required to provide a 50 percent discount on branded prescription drugs to patients receiving reimbursement under medicare part d while they remain in this coverage gap . these provisions of the acts apply to adcirca , which is our only commercial pharmaceutical product covered by medicare part d. approximately 35 percent of our adcirca patients are covered under medicare part d. the vast majority of our remodulin and tyvaso medicare patients are covered under medicare part b , which does not contain a similar coverage gap . we were not materially impacted by the acts during 2010 and our revenues were reduced by less than one percent in 2011 as a result of the acts . however , the potential long-term impact of the acts on our business is inherently difficult to predict as many details regarding the implementation of this legislation have not yet been determined . presently , we have not identified any provisions that could 61 materially impact our business , but will continue to monitor future developments related to this legislation . total revenues are reported net of : ( 1 ) estimated rebates ; ( 2 ) prompt pay discounts ; ( 3 ) allowances for product returns or exchanges ; and ( 4 ) distributor fees . we estimate our liability for rebates based on an analysis of historical levels of rebates by product to both state medicaid agencies and commercial third-party payers relative to sales of each product . in addition , we determine our obligation for prescription drug discounts required for medicare part d patients within the coverage gap based on estimations of the number of medicare part d patients and the period such patients will remain within the coverage gap . we provide prompt pay discounts to customers that pay amounts due within a specific time period and base our estimates for prompt pay discounts on observed customer payment behavior . we derive estimates relating to the allowance for returns of adcirca from published industry data specific to specialty pharmaceuticals and will continue to do so until we have sufficient historical data on which to base our allowance . in addition , we compare patient prescription data for adcirca to sales of adcirca on a quarterly basis to ensure a reasonable relationship between prescription and sales trends . to date , we have not identified any unusual patterns in the volume of prescriptions relative to sales that would warrant reconsideration of , or adjustment to , the methodology we currently employ to estimate our allowance for returns . the allowance for exchanges for remodulin is based on the historical rate of product exchanges , which has been too immaterial to record . in addition , because tyvaso is distributed in the same manner and under similar contractual arrangements as remodulin , the level of product exchanges for tyvaso has been comparable to that of remodulin and we anticipate minimal exchange activity in the future for both products . lastly , we estimate distributor fees based on contractual rates for specific services applied to the estimated units of service provided for the period . story_separator_special_tag cancer disease projects ch14.18 antibody in july 2010 , we entered into a cooperative research and development agreement ( crada ) with the national cancer institute ( nci ) to collaborate on the late-stage development and regulatory submissions of chimeric monoclonal antibody 14.18 ( ch14.18 ) for children with high-risk neuroblastoma and patients with other forms of cancer . ch14.18 is an antibody that has shown potential in the treatment of certain types of cancer by targeting gd2 , a glycolipid on the surface of tumor cells . under the terms of the crada , nci is conducting a clinical trial in approximately 100 patients to define more clearly the safety and toxicity profile of ch14.18 immunotherapy in children , and we are developing the commercial manufacturing capability for the antibody . as part of developing our commercial manufacturing capability , we will need to demonstrate comparability of our ch14.18 to the nci-produced ch14.18 , which typically includes a series of analytical and bioanalytical assays and human pharmacokinetics . the nci studies , including a previously conducted phase iii clinical trial and all other necessary studies supported by nci , will be used as the basis for a biologics license application we expect to file seeking fda approval of ch14.18 immunotherapy for the treatment of neuroblastoma . we have received orphan drug designation for ch14.18 from the fda and european medicines agency . 66 8h9 antibody pursuant to a december 2007 agreement with memorial sloan-kettering cancer center , we obtained certain license rights to an investigational monoclonal antibody , 8h9 , for the treatment of metastatic brain cancer . 8h9 is a mouse igg1 mab that is highly reactive with a range of human solid tumors , including human brain cancers . the 8h9 antibody is in early investigational development for metastases that develop in the brain from the spread of cancers from other tissues in the body . metastatic brain cancers are ten times more common than cancers that originate in the brain , and prognosis for patients with metastatic brain cancers is very poor . in the united states , more than 100,000 cases of metastatic brain cancer are diagnosed each year . we have spent $ 75.0 million from inception to december 31 , 2011 , on our cancer programs . infectious disease projects pursuant to our research agreement with the university of oxford ( oxford ) , we have the exclusive right to commercialize a platform of glycobiology antiviral drug candidates in various preclinical and clinical stages of testing for the treatment of a wide variety of viruses . through our research agreement with oxford , we are also supporting research into new glycobiology antiviral drug candidates and technologies . we are currently testing many of these compounds in preclinical studies and oxford continues to synthesize new agents that we may elect to test . on september 30 , 2011 , we were awarded a cost plus fixed fee contract with an aggregate value of up to $ 45.0 million under a broad agency announcement from the u.s. national institute of allergy and infectious diseases for studies directed at the development of a broad spectrum antiviral drug based on our glycobiology antiviral platform . under the contract 's base period of forty-two months , we will receive $ 10.6 million in funding and there are eight milestone-based options to expand the project and funding under the contract , up to an aggregate of $ 45.0 million . we recognize revenue on this contract to the extent of costs incurred , plus a proportionate amount of fees earned . we have spent $ 52.6 million from inception to december 31 , 2011 , on our infectious disease programs . future prospects because pah remains a progressive disease without a cure , we expect continued growth in the demand for our commercial products as alternatives or complements to other existing approved therapies . furthermore , the commercial introduction of tyvaso and adcirca has enabled us to offer products to more patients along the full continuum of the disease . the continued achievement of our growth objectives will depend in large part upon the successful commercial development of products within our pipeline . to this end , we submitted to the fda an nda for oral treprostinil in december 2011 , plan to initiate enrollment in the freedom-c 3 study of oral treprostinil and a new event-driven phase iii tyvaso study during 2012 and continue to develop beraprost-mr. in addition , we seek to expand the use of our therapies to treat patients at earlier stages in the pah disease progression . our future growth and profitability will depend on many factors including , but not limited to : ( 1 ) the timing and outcome of clinical trials and regulatory approvals , including the filing and approval of our nda for oral treprostinil , and the pmr for tyvaso ; ( 2 ) the timing of the commercial launch of new products ; ( 3 ) the pricing of and demand for our products and services ; ( 4 ) the reimbursement of our products by public and private insurance organizations ; ( 5 ) the competition we face within our industry ; ( 6 ) our ability to effectively manage our growth in an increasingly complex regulatory environment ; and ( 7 ) our ability to defend against generic competition , including the recent challenge to our remodulin patents by a generic drug company . 67 we operate in a highly competitive market in which a small number of pharmaceutical companies control a majority of the currently approved pah therapies . these pharmaceutical companies not only possess greater visibility in the market , but also greater financial , technical and marketing resources than we do . in addition , there are a number of investigational products in late-stage development that , if approved , may erode the market share of our existing commercial therapies and make market

december 31 , 2010. the $ 41.2 million increase was largely due to the recognition of the net , non-current portion of our royalty buy-down obligation to toray in the amount of $ 28.3 million and a $ 6.5 million increase in our supplemental executive retirement plan ( serp ) obligation which reflects an increased number of serp participants . additional paid-in capital increased by $ 64.0 million from $ 928.7 million at december 31 , 2010 to $ 992.7 million at december 31 , 2011. the increase consisted principally of the following elements : ( 1 ) increases of $ 24.0 million and $ 11.3 million , respectively , relating to proceeds received from stock-option exercises and related tax benefits ; ( 2 ) an increase of $ 27.3 million recognized in connection with the value of the shares we received from the exercise of a note hedge upon the conversion of the 2011 convertible notes ; and ( 3 ) an increase of $ 27.1 million representing the net effects of the issuance of the 2016 convertible notes and related note hedge and warrant transactions . ``` Suspicious Activity Report : accordingly , the results of medicomp , inc. , including the gain recognized on its disposal , have been included in discontinued operations for each of the three years in the three-year period ended december 31 , 2011 on our consolidated statements of operations . refer to note 18 ย— sale of medicomp , inc. to our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report on form 10-k for details . revenues sales of remodulin comprise the largest share of our revenues . other significant sources of revenues include sales of tyvaso and adcirca . sales of tyvaso and adcirca have continued to grow since their commercial introduction in 2009 , as each of these therapies has gained broader market acceptance . we sell remodulin and tyvaso in the united states to our specialty pharmaceutical distributors : accredo health group , inc. , curascript , inc. and cvs caremark . adcirca is sold to pharmaceutical wholesalers that are part of lilly 's pharmaceutical wholesaler network . we also sell remodulin to distributors outside of the united states . on july 21 , 2011 , express scripts , inc. , the parent company of curascript , announced the signing of a merger agreement with medco health solutions , inc. , the parent company of accredo . the parties announced that the merger , which is subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals , is expected to close in the first half of 2012. presently , we do not expect the merger , if approved , to materially affect our business . we require our distributors to maintain reasonable levels of contingent inventory at all times as the interruption of remodulin or tyvaso therapy can be life threatening . consequently , sales of these therapies in any given quarter may not precisely reflect patient demand . our distributors typically place monthly orders based on estimates of future demand and considerations of contractual minimum inventory requirements . as a result , sales volume of remodulin and tyvaso can vary , depending on the timing and magnitude of these orders . the patient protection and affordable care act , as amended by the health care and education reconciliation act ( collectively , the acts ) contains broad provisions that will be implemented over the next several years . we are continually evaluating the impact of the acts on our business ; however , our evaluation is dependent upon the issuance of final regulations and the impact this legislation will have on insurance companies and their relationships with drug manufacturers . on january 1 , 2011 , certain provisions of the acts that address the coverage gap in the medicare part d prescription drug program ( commonly known as the `` donut hole `` ) became effective . under these provisions , drug manufacturers are required to provide a 50 percent discount on branded prescription drugs to patients receiving reimbursement under medicare part d while they remain in this coverage gap . these provisions of the acts apply to adcirca , which is our only commercial pharmaceutical product covered by medicare part d. approximately 35 percent of our adcirca patients are covered under medicare part d. the vast majority of our remodulin and tyvaso medicare patients are covered under medicare part b , which does not contain a similar coverage gap . we were not materially impacted by the acts during 2010 and our revenues were reduced by less than one percent in 2011 as a result of the acts . however , the potential long-term impact of the acts on our business is inherently difficult to predict as many details regarding the implementation of this legislation have not yet been determined . presently , we have not identified any provisions that could 61 materially impact our business , but will continue to monitor future developments related to this legislation . total revenues are reported net of : ( 1 ) estimated rebates ; ( 2 ) prompt pay discounts ; ( 3 ) allowances for product returns or exchanges ; and ( 4 ) distributor fees . we estimate our liability for rebates based on an analysis of historical levels of rebates by product to both state medicaid agencies and commercial third-party payers relative to sales of each product . in addition , we determine our obligation for prescription drug discounts required for medicare part d patients within the coverage gap based on estimations of the number of medicare part d patients and the period such patients will remain within the coverage gap . we provide prompt pay discounts to customers that pay amounts due within a specific time period and base our estimates for prompt pay discounts on observed customer payment behavior . we derive estimates relating to the allowance for returns of adcirca from published industry data specific to specialty pharmaceuticals and will continue to do so until we have sufficient historical data on which to base our allowance . in addition , we compare patient prescription data for adcirca to sales of adcirca on a quarterly basis to ensure a reasonable relationship between prescription and sales trends . to date , we have not identified any unusual patterns in the volume of prescriptions relative to sales that would warrant reconsideration of , or adjustment to , the methodology we currently employ to estimate our allowance for returns . the allowance for exchanges for remodulin is based on the historical rate of product exchanges , which has been too immaterial to record . in addition , because tyvaso is distributed in the same manner and under similar contractual arrangements as remodulin , the level of product exchanges for tyvaso has been comparable to that of remodulin and we anticipate minimal exchange activity in the future for both products . lastly , we estimate distributor fees based on contractual rates for specific services applied to the estimated units of service provided for the period . story_separator_special_tag cancer disease projects ch14.18 antibody in july 2010 , we entered into a cooperative research and development agreement ( crada ) with the national cancer institute ( nci ) to collaborate on the late-stage development and regulatory submissions of chimeric monoclonal antibody 14.18 ( ch14.18 ) for children with high-risk neuroblastoma and patients with other forms of cancer . ch14.18 is an antibody that has shown potential in the treatment of certain types of cancer by targeting gd2 , a glycolipid on the surface of tumor cells . under the terms of the crada , nci is conducting a clinical trial in approximately 100 patients to define more clearly the safety and toxicity profile of ch14.18 immunotherapy in children , and we are developing the commercial manufacturing capability for the antibody . as part of developing our commercial manufacturing capability , we will need to demonstrate comparability of our ch14.18 to the nci-produced ch14.18 , which typically includes a series of analytical and bioanalytical assays and human pharmacokinetics . the nci studies , including a previously conducted phase iii clinical trial and all other necessary studies supported by nci , will be used as the basis for a biologics license application we expect to file seeking fda approval of ch14.18 immunotherapy for the treatment of neuroblastoma . we have received orphan drug designation for ch14.18 from the fda and european medicines agency . 66 8h9 antibody pursuant to a december 2007 agreement with memorial sloan-kettering cancer center , we obtained certain license rights to an investigational monoclonal antibody , 8h9 , for the treatment of metastatic brain cancer . 8h9 is a

vimseltinib we are currently studying vimseltinib in an open-label phase 1/2 study designed to evaluate the safety , efficacy , pk , and pd of vimseltinib in patients with malignant solid tumors as well as patients with tgct . in november 2020 , we announced the selection of a phase 2 dose and initiated the expansion portion of the study with vimseltinib in patients with symptomatic tgct not suitable for surgery . we are continuing to enroll tgct patients in cohort 9 of the dose escalation portion of the study to complete enrollment in this cohort . we expect to present updated data for vimseltinib in the second half of 2021. rebastinib we are currently studying rebastinib in two phase 1b/2 studies in combination with chemotherapy , one with paclitaxel and one with carboplatin . in october 2018 , we initiated an open-label , multicenter , phase 1b/2 study of rebastinib in combination with paclitaxel to assess safety , tolerability , pk , and efficacy in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors . in january 2019 , we initiated an open-label , multicenter , phase 1b/2 study of rebastinib in combination with carboplatin in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors . in january 2020 , we selected a phase 2 dose for , and activated , part 2 of the phase 1b/2 study of rebastinib in combination with carboplatin . in may 2020 , we announced that in part 2 of the study of rebastinib in combination with paclitaxel , we observed the required number of responses in the first stage in both the endometrial and platinum-resistant ovarian cancer cohorts , triggering the expansion of enrollment in these cohorts . in addition , based on the clinical activity observed in part 1 , we added a cohort for patients with carcinosarcoma in part 2 of the study of rebastinib in combination with paclitaxel . we expect to present updated data from the study of rebastinib in combination with paclitaxel in patients with endometrial cancer in the second quarter of 2021 and in patients with proc in the second half of 2021. dcc-3116 in january 2021 , we announced our plans to initiate a phase 1 study of dcc-3116 in the second quarter of 2021 , subject to fda authorization to proceed under our ind for dcc-3116 , submitted in the fourth quarter of 2020 and cleared by the fda . coronavirus ( covid-19 ) the full extent to which the covid-19 pandemic , or the future outbreak of any other highly infectious or contagious diseases , may impact our business , including our preclinical studies , clinical trial operations , or commercialization efforts will depend on continuously changing circumstances , which are highly uncertain and can not be predicted at this time , such as the duration of such pandemic including future waves of infection , new strains of the virus that causes covid-19 , or the broad availability of effective vaccines , the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact , and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures , among others . the ongoing fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the full impact of the covid-19 pandemic but it could have a material adverse effect on our business , financial condition , and results of operations . the covid-19 pandemic may also have the effect of heightening the risks to which we are subject , including various aspects of our preclinical studies and ongoing clinical trials , the reliance on third parties in our supply chain for materials and manufacturing of our drug and drug candidates , disruptions in health regulatory agencies ' operations globally , the volatility of our common stock , our ability to access capital markets , and our ability to successfully launch , commercialize , and generate revenue from qinlock . we are continuing to assess the long-term impact of covid-19 on our business operations in an effort to mitigate interruption to our clinical programs , research efforts , commercial launch of qinlock , and other business activities and to ensure the safety and well-being of our employees , as well as the physicians and patients participating in our clinical studies . because covid-19 infections have been reported throughout the u.s. and worldwide , certain national , state , and local governmental authorities have issued orders , proclamations , and or directives aimed at minimizing the spread of covid-19 . although some of these restrictions were eased or lifted , in response to local surges and new waves of infection , some countries , states , and local governments have reinstituted these restrictions , and additional , more restrictive orders , proclamations , and or directives may be issued in the future . in response to the covid-19 pandemic , we have implemented precautionary measures to protect the health and safety of our employees , partners , and patients , including encouraging all employees , other than those engaged in laboratory research activities , to work-from-home , and requiring adherence to onsite occupancy limits and appropriate safety measures designed to comply with federal , state , and local guidelines . 105 our ability to successfully launch , commercialize , and generate revenue from qinlock may be adversely affected by the impact of the covid-19 pandemic . for example , limited hospital access for non-patients , social distancing requirements , and precautionary measures due to covid-19 have impacted the ability of our sales personnel to interact in-person with customers . in response , we have implemented a virtual launch model , which may adversely affect the ability of our sales professionals to effectively market qinlock to physicians , which may have a negative impact on our sales and our market penetration . in addition , in the u.s. we are utilizing various programs to help patients afford our products , including patient assistance programs for eligible patients . story_separator_special_tag chargebacks and administrative fees : chargebacks for discounts represent our estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell product to qualified healthcare providers and government agencies at prices lower than the list 109 prices charged to the customers who directly purchase the product from us . the customers charge us for the difference between what the customers pay us for the product and the customer 's ultimate contractually committed or government required lower selling price to the qualified healthcare providers . as part of our contractual commitments to sell product to qualified healthcare providers , we pay fees for administrative services , such as account management and data reporting . government rebates : government rebates consist of medicare , tricare , and medicaid rebates . these reserves are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized . for medicare , we also estimate the number of patients in the prescription drug coverage gap for whom we will owe a rebate under the medicare part d program . trade discounts and allowances : we provide customers with discounts that are explicitly stated in contracts and recorded in the period the related product revenue is recognized . in addition , we also receive sales order management , inventory management , and data services from customers in exchange for certain fees . product returns : we estimate the amount of our product sales that may be returned by our customers and record this estimate in the period the related product revenue is recognized . we currently estimate product return liabilities based on available industry data and our visibility into the inventory remaining in the distribution channel . other incentives : other incentives include co-payment assistance provided to qualified patients , whereby we may provide financial assistance to patients with prescription drug co-payments required by the patient 's insurance provider . reserves for co-payment assistance are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized . accrued research and development expenses as part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements , we are required to estimate our accrued research and development expenses . this process involves reviewing open contracts and purchase orders , communicating with our applicable personnel to identify services that have been performed on our behalf , and estimating the associated cost incurred for the services when we have not yet been invoiced or otherwise notified of actual costs . the majority of our service providers invoice us in arrears for services performed , on a pre-determined schedule or when contractual milestones are met ; however , some require advance payments . we make estimates of our accrued expenses as of each balance sheet date in the consolidated financial statements based on facts and circumstances known to us at that time . we periodically confirm the accuracy of the estimates with the service providers and make adjustments if necessary . examples of estimated accrued research and development expenses include fees paid to : vendors in connection with the preclinical development activities ; cmos in connection with the production of preclinical and clinical trial materials ; cros in connection with preclinical and clinical studies ; and investigative sites in connection with clinical trials . we base our expenses related to preclinical studies and clinical trials on our estimates of the services received and efforts expended pursuant to quotes and contracts with multiple research institutions and cros that conduct and manage preclinical studies and clinical trials on our behalf . the financial terms of these agreements are subject to negotiation , vary from contract to contract and may result in uneven payment flows . there may be instances in which payments made to our vendors will exceed the level of services provided and result in a prepayment of the expense . in accruing service fees , we estimate the time period over which services will be performed and the level of effort to be expended in each period . if the actual timing of the performance of services or the level of effort varies from the estimate , we adjust the accrual or prepaid expense accordingly . although we do not expect our estimates to be materially different from amounts actually incurred , our understanding of the status and timing of services performed relative to the actual status and timing of services performed may vary and may result in reporting amounts that are too high or too low in any particular period . to date , there have not been any material adjustments to our prior estimates of accrued research and development expenses . stock-based compensation we measure all stock option awards granted to employees and directors based on the fair value on the date of the grant and recognize compensation expense of those awards over the requisite service period , which is generally the vesting period of the respective award . the straight-line method of expense recognition is applied to all awards with service-only conditions . we estimate the fair value of each stock option award using the black-scholes option-pricing model , which uses as inputs the fair value of our common stock and assumptions we make for the volatility of our common stock , the expected term of our 110 stock-based awards , the risk-free interest rate for a period that approximates the expected term of our stock-based awards , and our expected dividend yield . prior to october 2017 , we were a privately-held company and lacked company-specific historical and implied volatility information . therefore , we estimate our expected volatility based on the historical volatility of a set of our publicly traded peer companies as well as the limited historical volatility of our own traded stock price . we estimate the expected term of our options using the `` simplified `` method for awards that qualify as `` plain-vanilla `` options . the risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the u.s. treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the

preclinical studies , clinical trial operations , or commercialization efforts will depend on continuously changing circumstances , which are highly uncertain and can not be predicted at this time , such as the duration of such pandemic including future waves of infection , new strains of the virus that causes covid-19 , or the broad availability of effective vaccines , the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact , and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures , among others . the ongoing fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the full impact of the covid-19 pandemic but it could have a material adverse effect on our business , financial condition , and results of operations . the covid-19 pandemic may also have the effect of heightening the risks to which we are subject , including various aspects of our preclinical studies and ongoing clinical trials , the reliance on third parties in our supply chain for materials and manufacturing of our drug and drug candidates , disruptions in health regulatory agencies ' operations globally , the volatility of our common stock , our ability to access capital markets , and our ability to successfully launch , commercialize , and generate revenue from qinlock . we are continuing to assess the long-term impact of covid-19 on our business operations in an effort to mitigate interruption to our clinical programs , research efforts , commercial launch of qinlock , and other business activities and to ensure the safety and well-being of our employees , as well as the physicians and patients participating in our clinical studies . because covid-19 infections have been reported throughout the u.s. and worldwide , certain national , state , and local governmental authorities have issued orders , proclamations , and or directives aimed at minimizing the spread of covid-19 . although some of these restrictions were eased or lifted , in response to local surges and new waves of infection , some countries , states , and local governments have reinstituted these restrictions , and additional , more restrictive orders , proclamations , and or directives may be issued in the future . in response to the covid-19 pandemic , we have implemented precautionary measures to protect the health and safety of our employees , partners , and patients , including encouraging all employees , other than those engaged in laboratory research activities , to work-from-home , and requiring adherence to onsite occupancy limits and appropriate safety measures designed to comply with federal , state , and local guidelines . 105 our ability to successfully launch , commercialize , and generate revenue from qinlock may be adversely affected by the impact of the covid-19 pandemic . for example , limited hospital access for non-patients , social distancing requirements , and precautionary measures due to covid-19 have impacted the ability of our sales personnel to interact in-person with customers . in response , we have implemented a virtual launch model , which may adversely affect the ability of our sales professionals to effectively market qinlock to physicians , which may have a negative impact on our sales and our market penetration . in addition , in the u.s. we are utilizing various programs to help patients afford our products , including patient assistance programs for eligible patients . story_separator_special_tag chargebacks and administrative fees : chargebacks for discounts represent our estimated obligations resulting from contractual commitments to sell product to qualified healthcare providers and government agencies at prices lower than the list 109 prices charged to the customers who directly purchase the product from us . the customers charge us for the difference between what the customers pay us for the product and the customer 's ultimate contractually committed or government required lower selling price to the qualified healthcare providers . as part of our contractual commitments to sell product to qualified healthcare providers , we pay fees for administrative services , such as account management and data reporting . government rebates : government rebates consist of medicare , tricare , and medicaid rebates . these reserves are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized . for medicare , we also estimate the number of patients in the prescription drug coverage gap for whom we will owe a rebate under the medicare part d program . trade discounts and allowances : we provide customers with discounts that are explicitly stated in contracts and recorded in the period the related product revenue is recognized . in addition , we also receive sales order management , inventory management , and data services from customers in exchange for certain fees . product returns : we estimate the amount of our product sales that may be returned by our customers and record this estimate in the period the related product revenue is recognized . we currently estimate product return liabilities based on available industry data and our visibility into the inventory remaining in the distribution channel . other incentives : other incentives include co-payment assistance provided to qualified patients , whereby we may provide financial assistance to patients with prescription drug co-payments required by the patient 's insurance provider . reserves for co-payment assistance are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized . accrued research and development expenses as part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements , we are required to estimate our accrued research and development expenses . this process involves reviewing open contracts and purchase orders , communicating with our applicable personnel to identify services that have been performed on our behalf , and estimating the associated cost incurred for the services when we have not yet been invoiced or otherwise notified of actual costs . the majority of our service providers invoice us in arrears for services performed , on a pre-determined schedule or when contractual milestones are met ; however , some require advance payments . we make estimates of our accrued expenses as of each balance sheet date in the consolidated financial statements based on facts and circumstances known to us at that time . we periodically confirm the accuracy of the estimates with the service providers and make adjustments if necessary . examples of estimated accrued research and development expenses include fees paid to : vendors in connection with the preclinical development activities ; cmos in connection with the production of preclinical and clinical trial materials ; cros in connection with preclinical and clinical studies ; and investigative sites in connection with clinical trials . we base our expenses related to preclinical studies and clinical trials on our estimates of the services received and efforts expended pursuant to quotes and contracts with multiple research institutions and cros that conduct and manage preclinical studies and clinical trials on our behalf . the financial terms of these agreements are subject to negotiation , vary from contract to contract and may result in uneven payment flows . there may be instances in which payments made to our vendors will exceed the level of services provided and result in a prepayment of the expense . in accruing service fees , we estimate the time period over which services will be performed and the level of effort to be expended in each period . if the actual timing of the performance of services or the level of effort varies from the estimate , we adjust the accrual or prepaid expense accordingly . although we do not expect our estimates to be materially different from amounts actually incurred , our understanding of the status and timing of services performed relative to the actual status and timing of services performed may vary and may result in reporting amounts that are too high or too low in any particular period . to date , there have not been any material adjustments to our prior estimates of accrued research and development expenses . stock-based compensation we measure all stock option awards granted to employees and directors based on the fair value on the date of the grant and recognize compensation expense of those awards over the requisite service period , which is generally the vesting period of the respective award . the straight-line method of expense recognition is applied to all awards with service-only conditions . we estimate the fair value of each stock option award using the black-scholes option-pricing model , which uses as inputs the fair value of our common stock and assumptions we make for the volatility of our common stock , the expected term of our 110 stock-based awards , the risk-free interest rate for a period that approximates the expected term of our stock-based awards , and our expected dividend yield . prior to october 2017 , we were a privately-held company and lacked company-specific historical and implied volatility information . therefore , we estimate our expected volatility based on the historical volatility of a set of our publicly traded peer companies as well as the limited historical volatility of our own traded stock price . we estimate the expected term of our options using the `` simplified `` method for awards that qualify as `` plain-vanilla `` options . the risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the u.s. treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the

remainder in 2020 for lease . all ten of these aircraft leases will be for ten years . under the atsa , we operate the aircraft based on pre-defined fees scaled for the number of aircraft hours flown , aircraft scheduled and flight crews provided to asi for its network . in conjunction with the execution of the atsa , the company and amazon entered into an investment agreement and a stockholders agreement on march 8 , 2016. the investment agreement calls for the company to issue warrants in three tranches which grant amazon the right to acquire up to 19.9 % of the company 's pre-transaction outstanding common shares measured on a gaap-diluted basis , adjusted for share issuances and repurchases by the company following the date of the investment agreement and after giving effect to the warrants granted . in conjunction with the commitment for the ten additional 767 aircraft leases , extensions of twenty existing boeing 767 aircraft leases and additional aircraft operations under the atsa , amazon will be issued warrants for 14.8 million common shares which could expand its potential ownership in the company to approximately 33.2 % , including the warrants described above for the 2016 agreements . these new warrants will vest as existing leases are extended and additional aircraft leases are executed and added to the atsa operations . additionally , amazon can earn incremental warrant rights , increasing its potential ownership from 33.2 % up to approximately 39.9 % of the company , by leasing up to seventeen more cargo aircraft from the company before january 2026. for additional information about the warrants see note d to the accompanying consolidated financial statements . our accounting for the warrants issued to amazon has been determined in accordance with the

asset and are amortized against revenues over the duration of the aircraft leases . the warrants are accounted for as financial instruments , and accordingly , the fair value of the outstanding warrants are measured and classified in liabilities at the end of each reporting period . as of december 31 , 2018 , our liabilities reflected 14.83 million outstanding warrants having a fair value of $ 13.76 per share . during 2018 , the re-measurements of the warrants to fair value resulted in a non-operating gain of $ 7.4 million before the effect of income taxes compared to a $ 81.8 million loss for the year ended december 31 , 2017. the dod comprised 15 % , 10 % and 14 % of the company 's consolidated revenues excluding directly reimbursed revenues during the years ended december 31 , 2018 , 2017 and 2016 , respectively . the company 's airlines provide passenger airlift services to the u.s. dod as participants in the craf program . due to the acquisition of oai , we expect the dod

2018 , 2017 and 2016. our cam-owned operating aircraft fleet has increased by 29 aircraft since the end of 2016 , driven by customer demand for the boeing 767-300 converted freighter as well as the purchase of 11 passenger aircraft operated by oai . our freighters , converted from passenger aircraft , utilize standard shipping containers and can be deployed into regional cargo markets more economically than larger capacity aircraft , newly built freighters or other competing alternatives . at december 31 , 2018 , the company owned five boeing 767-300 aircraft that were either already undergoing , or awaiting induction into the freighter conversion process . aircraft fleet activity during 2018 is summarized below : - cam completed the modification of nine boeing 767-300 freighter
