Standard Premium Finance Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2021 and 2020
(unaudited)
1. Principles of Consolidation and Description of Business
Standard Premium Finance Holdings, Inc. (“SPFH” or the “Holding”) was incorporated on May 12, 2016, pursuant to the laws of the State of Florida.
Standard Premium Finance Management Corporation (“SPFMC” or the “subsidiary”) was incorporated on April 23, 1991, pursuant to the laws of the State of Florida, to engage principally in the insurance premium financing business. The Subsidiary is a licensed insurance premium finance company in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Arizona.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SPFH and its wholly-owned subsidiary SPFMC. SPFH and its subsidiary are collectively referred to as (“the Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited), which include the accounts of Standard Premium Finance Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements of Standard Premium Finance Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, have been omitted.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers short-term interest-bearing
investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to the customer and in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for these services. For the services where the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time and for which there is no ongoing obligation, revenue is recognized upon delivery. For the services where the Company satisfies its performance obligation over time as the service is being transferred to the customer, revenue is generally recognized using the output method as the services are delivered.
Finance charges on insurance premium installment contracts are initially recorded as unearned interest and are credited to income monthly over the term of the finance agreement. For Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and Texas contracts, an initial service fee of $20 per contract and the first month’s interest are recognized as income at the inception of a contract. The same treatment is applied to the $15 initial service fee and first month’s interest in South Carolina. The initial $20 per contract fee can only be charged once to an insured in a twelve-month period. In accordance with industry practice, finance charges are recognized as income using the “Rule of 78s” method of amortizing finance charge income, which does not materially differ from the interest method of amortizing finance charge income on short term receivables. Late charges are recognized as income when charged. Unearned interest is netted against Premium Finance Contracts and Related Receivables on the balance sheet for reporting purposes.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Premium Finance Contracts and Related Receivable
The Company finances insurance premium on policies
for the transportation industry and other commercial enterprises. The term of each contract varies from 3 to 12 monthly payments. Repayment
terms are structured such that the contracts will be repaid within the term of the underlying insurance policy, generally less than one
year. The contracts are secured by the unearned premium of the insurance carrier which is obligated to pay the Company any unearned premium
in the event the insurance policy is cancelled pursuant a power of attorney contained in the finance contract. As of June 30, 2021 and
December 31, 2020, the amount of unearned premium on open and cancelled contracts totaled $
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The carrying amount of the Premium Finance Contracts (“Contracts”) is reduced by an allowance for losses that are maintained at a level which, in management’s judgment, is adequate to absorb losses inherit in the Contracts. The amount of the allowance is based upon management’s evaluation of the collectability of the Contracts, including the nature of the accounts, credit concentration, trends, and historical data, specific impaired Contracts, economic conditions, and other risks inherent in the Contracts. The allowance is increased by a provision for loan losses, which is charged to expense, and reduced by charge-offs, net of recovery.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
Furniture
and equipment
Computer
equipment and software
Leasehold
improvements
Amortization of Loan Origination Costs
Amortization of loan origination costs is computed using the straight-line method over the life of the loan agreement.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include assumptions used in valuation of deferred tax assets, allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciable lives of property and equipment, and valuation of stock-based compensation.
Concentration of Credit and Financial Instrument Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash and accounts receivable from customers,
agents, and insurance companies. The Company maintains its cash balances at three banks. Accounts at these financial institutions are
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $

The Company controls its credit risk in accounts receivable through credit standards, limits on exposure, by monitoring the financial condition of insurance companies, by adhering to statutory cancellation policies, and by monitoring and pursuing collections from past due accounts. We cancel policies at the earliest permissible date allowed by the statutory cancellation regulations.

Approximately
Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance
The Company is the owner and beneficiary of a life insurance policy on its president. The cash surrender value relative to the policy in place at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s carrying amounts of financial instruments as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 825, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, including finance contract and related receivables, prepaid expenses, drafts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, approximate their fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments. The fair value of the line of credit and long-term debt are based on current rates at which the Company could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities and the carrying value approximates fair value.
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which those tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.
Uncertain tax positions are recognized only when the Company believes it is more likely than not that the tax position will be upheld on examination by the taxing authorities based on the merits of the position. The Company has
Tax returns are open to examination by taxing authorities for three years after filing. No income tax returns are currently under examination by taxing authorities. SPFMC and SPFH recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. SPFMC and SPFH did
The Corporation accounts for earnings (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 260 - 10, “Earnings Per Share”, which establishes the requirements for presenting earnings per share (“EPS”). FASB ASC Topic No. 260 - 10 requires the presentation of “basic” and “diluted” EPS on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS amounts are calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS assumes the exercise of all stock options, warrants and convertible securities having exercise prices less than the average market price of the common stock during the periods, using the treasury stock method.

Leases
The Company recognizes and measures its leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842, “Leases”. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at inception of a contract and when the terms of an existing contract are changed. The Company recognizes a lease liability and a right of use (ROU) asset at the commencement date of the lease. The lease liability is initially and subsequently recognized based on the present value of its future lease payments calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate.
3. Premium Finance Contracts, Related Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Premium Finance Contracts and Related Receivable represent monthly payments due on insurance premium finance contracts. The Company finances insurance policies over periods from three months to one year for businesses and consumers who make an initial down payment of, on average, 25 percent of the insurance policy amounts. The entire amount of the contract is recorded including amounts due for finance charges and services charges. These receivables are reported net of unearned interest for financial statements purposes. Amounts due from agents represent balances related to (1) an agent’s unearned commission due to a policy cancellation and (2) down payments collected by the agents on behalf of the insured, which are due to us. Receivables from insurance premium finance contracts cancelled are due from the insurance companies.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Overview
We are an insurance premium financing company, specializing primarily in commercial policies. We make it efficient for companies to access financing for insurance premiums. Enabled by our network of marketing representatives and relationships with insurance agents, we provide a value-driven, customer-focused lending service.
We have offered premium financing since 1991 through our wholly owned subsidiary, Standard Premium Finance Management Corporation. We are generally targeting premium financing loans from $1,000 to $15,000, with repayment terms ranging from 6 to 10 months, although we may offer larger loans in cases we deem appropriate. Qualified customers may have multiple financings with us concurrently, which we believe provides opportunities for repeat business, as well as increased value to our customers.
We originate loans primarily in Florida, although we operate in several states. Over the past three years, the Company has expanded its operations, and currently is financing insurance premiums in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Texas, Tennessee and Arizona. We intend to continue to expand our market into new states as part of our organic growth trend. Loans are originated primarily through a network of insurance agents solicited by our in-house sales team and marketing representatives.
We generate the majority of our revenue through interest income and the associated fees earned from our loan products. We earn interest based on the “rule of 78” and earn other associated fees as applicable to each loan. These fees include, but are not limited to, a one-time finance charge, late fees, and NSF fees. Our company charges interest to its customers solely by the Rule of 78. Charging interest per the Rule of 78 is the industry standard among premium finance loans. The Rule of 78 is a method to calculate the amount of principal and interest paid by each payment on a loan with equal monthly payments. The Rule of 78 is a permissible method of calculating interest in the states in which we operate. The Rule of 78 recognizes greater amounts of interest income during the first months of the loan, while decreasing interest income during the final months of the loan. Whenever a loan is repaid prior to full maturity, the Rule of 78 methodology is applied and the borrower is refunded accordingly.
We rely on a diversified set of funding sources for the loans we make to our customers. Our primary source of financing has historically been a line of credit at a financial institution collateralized by our loan receivables and our other assets. We receive additional funding from unsecured subordinate noteholders that pays monthly interest to the investors. We have also used proceeds from operating cash flow to fund loans in the past and continue to finance a portion of our outstanding loans with these funds. See Liquidity and Capital Resources for additional information regarding our financing strategy.
The Company’s main source of funding is its line of credit, which represented approximately 65% ($31,883,875) of its capital as of June 30, 2021. This line of credit was replaced with a new lender, First Horizon Bank, on February 3, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s subordinated notes payable represented approximately 18% ($8,896,429) of the Company’s capital, operating liabilities provide approximately 8% ($4,027,637) of the Company’s capital, preferred equity provides approximately 2% ($990,000) of the Company’s capital, the PPP loan represents approximately 1% ($271,000) of the Company’s capital, and equity in retained earnings and common paid-in capital represents the remaining 6% ($3,021,998) of the Company’s capital structure.

Gross Revenue
Gross Revenue represents the sum of interest and finance income, associated fees and other revenue.
Originations
Originations represent the total principal amount of Loans made during the period.
Interest Earned Rate
The Interest Earned Rate is the average annual percentage interest rate earned on new loans.
Cost of Funds Rate
Cost of Funds Rate is calculated as interest expense divided by average debt outstanding for the period, net of the interest related tax benefit.
Reserve Ratio
Reserve Ratio is our allowance for credit losses at the end of the period divided by the total amount of principal outstanding on Loans at the end of the period. It excludes net deferred origination costs and associated fees.
Provision Rate
Provision Rate equals the provision for credit losses for the period divided by originations for the period. Because we reserve for probable credit losses inherent in the portfolio upon origination, this rate is significantly impacted by the expectation of credit losses for the period’s originations volume. This rate is also impacted by changes in loss expectations for contract receivables originated prior to the commencement of the period.
Return on Assets
Return on Assets is calculated as annualized net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders for the period divided by average total assets for the period.
Return on Equity
Return on Equity is calculated as annualized net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders for the period divided by average stockholders’ equity attributable to common stockholders for the period.

RESULTS of OPERATIONS
Results of Operations for the Three Months ended June 30, 2021 Compared to the Three Months ended June 30. 2020
Revenue
Revenue increased by 18.9% overall or $305,214 to $1,922,827 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $1,617,613 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in revenue was primarily due to a 20.9% or $272,884 increase in finance charges and a 27.6% or $23,265 increase in revenue from origination charges. Revenue from finance charges comprised 81.9% and 80.5% of overall revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
During the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020, the company financed an additional $5,183,904 in new loan originations. This increase was due largely to increased marketing efforts throughout our established states. In conjunction with the increased amounts financed, the Company also increased the quantity of loan originations by 1,600 new loans for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. The quantity of loan originations is directly correlated to the origination charge revenue, as the Company immediately recognizes an origination fee on substantially all new loans.
Under the terms of the line of credit agreement, the loan receivables and our other assets provide the collateral for the loan. As the receivables increase, driven by new sales, the company has greater borrowing power, giving it the opportunity generate additional sales. Throughout 2020, the Company experienced a constraint on loan originations as it pushed near the limit of its previous $27,500,000 line of credit. In February 2021, the Company executed a $35,000,000 line of credit with a new lender, terminating the previous line of credit. The additional availability on our line of credit was an essential driver to our increased originations during the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. See Future Cash Requirements for the Company’s strategy regarding its line of credit.
Expense
Expenses increased by 14.5% or $217,821 to $1,721,864 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $1,504,043 for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
The increase in expenses was primarily due to increases in the following categories:
| · | $66,609 increase in professional fees primarily because of financial statement audit and review fees incurred. | |
| · | $59,792 increase in commission expense as a result of an increase in loan originations. Commission expense is correlated with the dollar amount and quantity of loan originations. Since the Company experienced an increase in originations during the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to June 30, 2020, a related increase in commissions is expected. | |
| · | $33,045 increase in interest expense as a result of loan originations leading to increased borrowings on the line of credit. Despite the increase in borrowings on the line of credit of $4,458,616, an increase of 16.3%, at June 30, 2021 as compared to June 30, 2020, interest expense increased by only 7.8% during the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. The Company’s new line of credit with First Horizon Bank has a lower minimum rate, which the Company has benefited from for the second quarter of 2021. See Liquidity and Capital Resources for more information on the new line of credit. | |
| · | $23,740 increase in bad debt expense as a result of maintaining the allowance for doubtful accounts in line with the balance in accounts receivable from increased new loan originations. |
Income before Taxes
Income before taxes increased by $87,393, or 77.0%, to $200,963 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $113,570 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was attributable to the net increases and decreases as discussed above.
Income Tax Provision
Income tax provision decreased $21,712 to $44,990 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $66,702 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. This decrease was primarily attributable to the increase in deferred tax assets related to allowances on receivables, partially offset by the increase in taxable income.
Net Income
Net Income increased by $109,105, or 232.8%, to $155,973 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $46,868 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was attributable to the $87,393 increase in income before taxes related to increased business activity and the $21,712 decrease in the provision for income taxes related to increased taxable income.

Results of Operations for the Six Months ended June 30, 2021 Compared to the Six Months ended June 30, 2020
Revenue
Revenue increased by 14.2% overall or $452,852 to $3,634,731 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $3,181,879 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in revenue was primarily due to a 15.6% or $400,532 increase in finance charges and a 29.1% or $46,627 increase in revenue from origination charges. Revenue from finance charges comprised 81.7% and 80.8% of overall revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, the company financed an additional $8,857,077 in new loan originations. This increase was due largely to increased marketing efforts throughout our established states. In conjunction with the increased amounts financed, the Company also increased the quantity of loan originations by 2,627 new loans for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. The quantity of loan originations is directly correlated to the origination charge revenue, as the Company immediately recognizes an origination fee on substantially all new loans.
Under the terms of the line of credit agreement, the loan receivables and our other assets provide the collateral for the loan. As the receivables increase, driven by new sales, the company has greater borrowing power, giving it the opportunity generate additional sales. Throughout 2020, the Company experienced a constraint on loan originations as it pushed near the limit of its previous $27,500,000 line of credit. In February 2021, the Company executed a $35,000,000 line of credit with a new lender, terminating the previous line of credit. The additional availability on our line of credit was an essential driver to our increased originations during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. See Future Cash Requirements for the Company’s strategy regarding its line of credit.
Expense
Expenses increased by 10.3% or $296,612 to $3,176,571 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $2,879,959 for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
The increase in expenses was primarily due to increases in the following categories:
| · | $121,419 increase in commission expense as a result of an increase in loan originations. Commission expense is correlated with the dollar amount and quantity of loan originations. Since the Company experienced an increase in originations during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to June 30, 2020, a related increase in commissions is expected. | |
| · | $98,493 increase in professional fees primarily because of legal and audit fees related to closing the new line of credit with First Horizon Bank as well as financial statement audit and review fees incurred. | |
| · | $54,400 increase in bad debt expense as a result of maintaining the allowance for doubtful accounts in line with the balance in accounts receivable from increased new loan originations. |
The increases in expenses was primarily offset by a decrease in the following category:
| · | $20,970 decrease in interest expense as a result of a reduction in the line of credit interest rate. Despite the increase in borrowings on the line of credit of $4,458,616, an increase of 16.3%, at June 30, 2021 as compared to June 30, 2020, interest expense decreased by 2.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. This is the result of a significant reduction in the 30-day LIBOR rate used in calculating the Company’s interest on the line of credit during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020, thus greatly reducing the cost of funds. Furthermore, the Company’s new line of credit with First Horizon Bank has a lower minimum rate, which the Company has benefited from during 2021. See Liquidity and Capital Resources for more information on the new line of credit. |
Income before Taxes
Income before taxes increased by $156,240, or 51.7%, to $458,160 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $301,920 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was attributable to the net increases and decreases as discussed above.
Income Tax Provision
Income tax provision increased $18,189 to $121,933 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $103,744 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in taxable income.
| 22 |
Net Income
Net Income increased by $138,051, or 69.7%, to $336,227 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $198,176 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was attributable to the $156,240 increase in income before taxes related to increased business activity, partially offset by the $18,189 increase in the provision for income taxes related to increased taxable income.
Comparison of Cash Flows for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
We used $7,411,612 of cash in our operating activities in 2021 compared to $750,601 used in our operating activities in 2020. The increase in cash used of $6,661,011 was primarily due to a $6,860,253 increase of cash used to support working capital components partially offset by a $199,242 increase of net income as adjusted for noncash items.
The $6,661,011 increase of cash used to support working capital components was primarily due to a $5,967,806 decrease in the change in premium finance contracts, a $613,342 decrease in the change in drafts payable, and a $305,487 decrease in the change in accounts payable and accrued expenses. These are natural fluctuations in operating accounts that occur during the normal course of business. The Company expects net cash outflows from operations during periods of growth. As discussed in the Revenues section, although the Company was able to continue to grow in 2020, the Company was effectively constrained by the limit of its previous line of credit agreement. During 2021, the Company has utilized its increased availability on its line of credit leading to the large increase in premium finance contracts receivable.
The $199,242 increase of cash from net earnings as adjusted by noncash items resulted primarily from an $138,051 increase in net income and a $54,400 increase in bad debt expense. As the Company grew its receivables portfolio in 2021, bad debt expense increased to adjust the allowance accordingly.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
We used $48,269 of cash in our investing activities in 2021 compared to $17,997 in cash used in 2020. The increase in cash used of $30,272 is due to increases in payments made on life insurance policies of $19,909 and the purchases of property and equipment of $10,363. In 2021, the Company purchased a new vehicle used by a marketing representative to service the Florida market, which is being depreciated over five years.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
We received $6,999,622 of cash provided by our financing activities in 2021 compared to $880,581 provided by financing activities in 2020. The increase in funds provided of $6,119,041 is due primarily to an increase in proceeds from the line of credit, net of repayment, of $5,606,727, an increase in proceeds from notes payable – related parties of $450,000, and an increase in proceeds of notes payable – others of $331,964. These were partially offset by a decrease in proceeds from the PPP loan of $271,000. As discussed in the Revenues and Liquidity and Capital Resources sections, in 2020, the Company was limited in the amounts it could draw from its line of credit, due to reaching maximum availability throughout the year. In 2021, the Company utilized its increased line of credit to finance its increased premium finance contracts receivable. In conjunction with the new line of credit, the Company was required to increase its subordinated debt, which accounts for the increases in proceeds from notes payable – related parties and notes payable – others.
LIQUIDITY and CAPITAL RESOURCES as of June 30, 2021
We had $17,030 cash and a working capital surplus of $9,667,057 at June 30, 2021. A significant working capital surplus is generally expected through the normal course of business due primarily to the difference between the balance in loan receivables and the related line of credit liability. As discussed in the Revenues section, the Company’s line of credit is currently the primary source of operating funds. In February 2021, the Company entered into a contract with a new lender, First Horizon Bank, for a two-year $35,000,000 line of credit. The terms of the new line of credit are generally more favorable than the previous line of credit, including an interest rate based on the 30-day LIBOR rate plus 2.85% with a minimum rate of 3.35%. The previous, terminated line of credit had an interest rate based on the 30-day LIBOR rate plus 2.75% with a minimum rate of 3.75%. The Company believes that the interest rate will be based on the minimum rate for the entire term of the line of credit, which will lead to savings on interest expense over the term of the deal, though the Company cannot guarantee the minimum rate will be employed for the term of the loan. Based on our estimates and taking into account the risks and uncertainties of our plans, we believe that we will have adequate liquidity to finance and operate our business and repay our obligations as they become due for at least the next 12 months.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company raised an additional $450,000 in subordinated notes payable – related parties and $331,964 in subordinated notes payable – others. A requirement of the new line of credit was an increase in our subordinated debt to provide additional collateral to the bank. The Company utilizes its inflows from subordinated debt as a financing source before drawing additionally from the line of credit.
In April 2020, the Company received a $271,000 loan through the PPP program with the Small Business Administration. The Company proudly applied 100% of the proceeds of the loan to its main purpose of keeping their staff employed at the same level as before the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company maintained the same level of employment throughout 2020 and 2021 with support from the PPP loan. As the Company used the proceeds of the loan on forgivable expenses, i.e. company payroll, the Company expects the loan to be fully forgiven. The Company applied for loan forgiveness in September 2020 and awaits a response from the SBA and the Company’s bank, which facilitated the loan.
Future Cash Requirements
As the Company anticipates its growth patterns to continue, the larger line of credit is paramount to fueling this growth. By securing its larger line of credit, the Company can expect to satisfy the cash requirements anticipated by its future growth. Coinciding with these goals, in February 2021, the Company entered into a contract with a new lender for a two-year $35,000,000 line of credit.
Uses of Liquidity and Capital Resources
We require cash to fund our operating expenses and working capital requirements, including costs associated with our premium finance loans, capital expenditures, debt repayments, acquisitions (if any), pursuing market expansion, supporting sales and marketing activities, and other general corporate purposes. While we believe we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to fund our operations and repay our debt, we may elect to pursue additional financing activities such as refinancing or expanding existing debt or pursuing other debt or equity offerings to provide flexibility with our cash management and provide capital for potential acquisitions.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
None.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
We consider the following to be our most critical accounting policy because it involves critical accounting estimates and a significant degree of management judgment:
Allowance for premium finance contract receivable losses
We are subject to the risk of loss associated with our borrowers’ inability to fulfill their payment obligations, the risk that we will not collect sufficient unearned premium refunds on the cancelled policies on the defaulted loans to fully cover the unpaid loan principal and the risk that payments due us from insurance agents and brokers will not be paid.
The carrying amount of the Premium Finance Contracts (“Contracts”) is reduced by an allowance for losses that are maintained at a level which, in management’s judgment, is adequate to absorb losses inherent in the Contracts. The amount of the allowance is based upon management’s evaluation of the collectability of the Contracts, including the nature of the accounts, credit concentration, trends, and historical data, specific impaired Contracts, economic conditions, and other risks inherent in the Contracts. The allowance is increased by a provision for loan losses, which is charged to expense, and reduced by charge-offs, net of recovery.
In addition, specific allowances are established for accounts past due over 120 days. Individual contracts are written off against the allowance when collection of the individual contracts appears doubtful. The collectability of outstanding and cancelled contracts is generally secured by collateral in the form of the unearned premiums on the underlying policies and accordingly historical losses are approximately 1% to 1.5% of the principal amount of loans made each year. The Company considers historical losses in determining the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The collectability of amounts due from agents is determined by the financial strength of the agency.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, we have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2021.

Based upon the evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at June 30, 2021 at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
