NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 included in Meta Financial Group, Inc.’s (“Meta” or the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 29, 2018. Accordingly, footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited consolidated financial statements have been omitted.
The financial information of the Company included herein has been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and has been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Such information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The results of the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019.
All share and per share data reported in this Form 10-Q has been adjusted to reflect the 3-for-1 forward stock split of the Company's common stock effected by the Company on October 4, 2018.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year financial statement presentation. These changes and reclassifications did not impact previously reported net income or comprehensive income.
Certain amounts in the Recorded Investment table presented in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements have been restated from what was previously reported as of September 30, 2018 on Form 10-K.
Loan and lease tables have been conformed to be consistent with the Company's updated presentation of its lending portfolio. The new presentation includes expanding the commercial and consumer finance portfolio to present the lending categories that are included in each, presenting the warehouse finance portfolio as its own category, and condensing the community bank loan categories. Warehouse finance loans were previously included in the consumer finance portfolio. All current and prior period numbers are reflective of this new presentation and total loan and lease balances remained unchanged.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATES ("ASU")
Significant accounting policies in effect and disclosed within the Company’s most recent audited consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2018 remain substantially unchanged with the exception of the policies impacted by the adoption of noted ASUs below.
Adopted ASUs
Revenue Recognition - The Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), subsequent related Updates (collectively, ASU 2014-09), and ASU 2016-04, Liabilities - Extinguishments of Liabilities (Subtopic 405-20): Recognition of Breakage of Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products on October 1, 2018. ASU 2014-09 modifies the guidance used to recognize revenue from contracts with customers for transfers of goods or services and transfers of non-financial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other guidance. Upon adoption, the Company recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment of $1.5 million to retained earnings, net of tax, due to changes in timing of revenue recognition from breakage of unregistered, unused prepaid cards in the Company’s Meta Payment Systems (MPS) division. Refer to Note 12. Revenue from Contracts with Customers for additional information.
9
Financial Instruments - The Company adopted ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities and related Updates (collectively, ASU 2016-01) on October 1, 2018. ASU 2016-01 makes several revisions to Subtopic 825-10, including that ASU 2016-01: (1) requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, (2) simplifies impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair value, (3) eliminates requirement to disclose methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost, (4) requires the use of an exit price notion when measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, and (5) requires separate presentation of financial assets and liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet and accompanying notes. Upon adoption, the Company recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment that reclassed $0.5 million, net of tax, from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings, due to the Company’s cumulative change in fair value of equity securities with readily determinable fair value. Refer to Note 6. Securities for additional information.
The Company also adopted the following ASUs on October 1, 2018, none of which had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
– | ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments |
– | ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash |
– | ASU 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business |
– | ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment |
– | ASU 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from Derecognition of Non-Financial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and accounting for Partial Sales of Non-Financial Assets |
– | ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting |
ASUs to be Adopted
Leases - ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and related Updates (collectively Topic 842) will become effective for the Company on October 1, 2019. For lessees, Topic 842 establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with such classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. For lessors, the guidance with Topic 842 is largely unchanged from current guidance.
A modified retrospective transition approach is required. An entity may choose to use either (1) the standard’s effective date or (2) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, as the date of initial application. The Company expects to adopt Topic 842 using the effective date, October 1, 2019, as the date of initial application. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and disclosures required under Topic 842 will not be provided for dates and periods before October 1, 2019.
FASB has released several updates to Topic 842 through subsequent ASUs, many of which allow for practical expedients in transition. The Company expects to elect the ‘package of practical expedients’, which permits the Company to not reassess under the new standard the Company’s prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company does not expect to elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements, with the latter not being applicable to the Company. The new standard also provides practical expedients for a lessee’s and lessor’s ongoing accounting. The Company expects to elect the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. The Company (as a lessee and lessor) also expects to elect the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all of its leases that qualify.
As a lessee, the Company expects Topic 842 to have a material effect on its financial statements. While the Company continues to assess the effects of adoption, the Company believes the significant effects will relate to (1) recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for the Company’s office and equipment operating leases; (2) recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for the Company’s service contracts that meet the revised definition of a lease under Topic 842; and (3) providing significant new disclosures about the Company’s leasing activities. The Company is currently implementing a methodology and process to estimate and account for the ROU assets and lease liabilities.
As a lessor, the Company continues to assess the effects of adoption, however the Company believes the significant effects will relate to (1) earlier recognition of expense due to a narrower definition of initial direct costs; (2) gross presentation of costs excluded from contract consideration that are reimbursed by the lessee as revenue and expenses on the income statement; and (3) presentation of leasing activities on the Company’s financial statements. The Company is currently in the process of implementing a new lease accounting system, processes and procedures to reflect the new standard.
Other Upcoming ASUs - Refer to the Company’s most recently audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2018 for the latest update on ASUs relevant to the Company and not yet adopted as of March 31, 2019.
NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS
The Company acquired Crestmark Bancorp, Inc. ("Crestmark") and its bank subsidiary, Crestmark Bank, on August 1, 2018 for a purchase price of $295.8 million paid by issuance of 9,919,512 shares of Meta common stock. The initial accounting for certain liabilities and goodwill were incomplete and the amounts recorded were considered provisional. The Company recognized certain measurement period adjustments as disclosed below during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The amount of goodwill recorded remains provisional, as well as the other assets and liabilities noted in the table below, as more information becomes available related to DC Solar. The measurement period remains open for the Crestmark acquisition until August 1, 2019. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to net assets of Crestmark as of the August 1, 2018 acquisition date.
(Dollars in Thousands) | Estimated fair value as previously reported(a) | Measurement period adjustments | Fair value as adjusted | ||||||||

(a) As previously reported in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018
Measurement Period Adjustments and Impairment - DC Solar
The Company previously purchased a portfolio of mobile solar generators ("MSGs") from DC Solar Solutions, Inc. and certain of its affiliates, a relationship in the Company's solar leasing business, and, in turn, leased the MSGs to DC Solar Distribution, Inc., an affiliate of DC Solar Solutions. During the second fiscal quarter of 2019, the Company became aware that the DC Solar entities and their affiliates filed for bankruptcy and the entities, including their principals, are subjects of ongoing federal investigations involving allegations of fraudulent misconduct. The Company had three separate operating leases with DC Solar - two of the transactions were included in the acquired Crestmark balances on August 1, 2018. The third transaction was originated in August 2018 after the Crestmark acquisition date. The Company considered the bankruptcy filing and fraud allegations as new facts and circumstances and concluded the alleged fraud existed at the acquisition date for the acquired DC Solar transactions. As a result, the identified impairment for the acquired DC Solar transactions and other related adjustments were recorded as measurement period adjustments to the acquired assets and liability amounts recognized and were offset through provisional goodwill. The impairment and related adjustments for the DC Solar transaction originated post-acquisition are reflected in current earnings.
The Company continues to gather information about the situation and, as of the date of this filing, has identified and located 175 of 176 of the underlying assets, however the timing and extent to which the Company will be able to recover and re-lease the underlying assets remains uncertain, due in part to claims by third parties as to their potential interests in the underlying assets. The adjustments to goodwill and impairment recognized for the DC Solar events reflect the Company's best estimate of the potential loss incurred, based on the Company's present understanding of the relevant facts. Assumptions utilized in the estimate included recoverability of the MSGs and the Company's ability to re-lease them, contractual rents, and residual values. As new facts and circumstances become available, the Company will assess any remaining exposure with respect to these DC Solar matters to determine whether additional adjustments to goodwill and/or impairment loss is necessary. As long as the required criteria under GAAP are met, the Company will continue to account for adjustments to the acquired DC Solar transactions as adjustments to goodwill until the measurement period closes, which will not extend beyond August 1, 2019.
The table below reflects the net impact of the foregoing DC Solar matters, based upon the Company's present understanding of the relevant facts and circumstances, to the Company's financial statements at March 31, 2019 and for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The Company recorded additional measurement period adjustments in the second fiscal quarter of 2019 for provisional tax and compensation liabilities assumed through the Crestmark acquisition. The Company obtained additional information about facts and circumstances existing at the Crestmark acquisition date that resulted in an increase to liabilities and goodwill recognized of $2.2 million.
