CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Nature of Business
Gaming Partners International Corporation (GPIC) is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada and has three operating subsidiaries: Gaming Partners International USA, Inc. (GPI USA) (including GPI Mexicana, S.A. de C.V (GPI Mexicana) our maquiladora manufacturing operation in Mexico), Gaming Partners International SAS (GPI SAS), and Gaming Partners International Asia Limited (GPI Asia). On July 1, 2014, we acquired substantially all of the net gaming assets of GemGroup Inc. and its subsidiaries (GemGroup) (see Note 2– Acquisition). Our subsidiaries have the following distribution and product focus:
• | GPI USA sells in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and Latin America. GPI USA sells our full product line, with most of the products manufactured at our facility in San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico and, since July 1, 2014, at our facility in Blue Springs, Missouri. The remainder is either manufactured in France or purchased from United States vendors. We also warehouse inventory in San Luis, Arizona and at our Las Vegas, Nevada headquarters, and have sales offices in Las Vegas; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Gulfport, Mississippi. |
• | GPI SAS sells primarily in Europe and Africa out of its office in Beaune, France. GPI SAS predominantly sells casino currencies, including both American-style, known as chips, and European-style, known as plaques and jetons. Most of the products sold by GPI SAS are manufactured in France, with the remainder manufactured in Mexico. |
• | GPI Asia, with an office in Macau S.A.R., China, is the exclusive distributor of GPI USA and GPI SAS products in the Asia-Pacific region. GPI Asia primarily sells casino currencies, manufactured in France or in Mexico, as well as radio frequency identification device (RFID) product solutions. Since July 1, 2014, GPI Asia also sells layouts manufactured in Macau. |
GPIC was formed in 2002 through a combination between Paul-Son Gaming Corporation and Bourgogne et Grasset S.A. initiated by the late Francois Carrette, whose firm, Holding Wilson, S.A., remains GPIC’s controlling stockholder. We have established brand names such as Paulson®, Bourgogne et Grasset® (BG®), Bud Jones® and Blue Chip (BC®). On July 1, 2014, GPIC started manufacturing and selling playing cards and table layouts under the recently acquired Gemaco® brand name (see Note 2 – Acquisition). GPI USA was founded in 1963 as Paul-Son Gaming Supplies, Inc. by Paul S. Endy, Jr., and initially manufactured and sold dice to casinos in Las Vegas. GPI SAS was founded in 1923 as Etablissements Bourgogne et Grasset S.A. by Etienne Bourgogne and Claudius Grasset in Beaune, France to produce and sell counterfeit-resistant currencies to casinos in Monaco. GPIC and each of its subsidiaries are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “us,” “we” or “our.”
Our business activities include the manufacture and supply of casino currencies, table layouts, playing cards, gaming furniture, table accessories, dice, roulette wheels, and RFID readers and software, all of which are used with casino table games such as blackjack, poker, baccarat, craps, and roulette.
Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GPIC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries GPI SAS, GPI USA, GPI Mexicana, and GPI Asia. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP) for interim financial information and do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with our annual audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect only normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results for such periods. The results of operations for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
6 |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets. Goodwill is recorded when the consideration paid for an acquisition exceeds the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is measured and tested for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if we believe indicators of impairment exist. Triggering events for impairment reviews may be indicators such as adverse industry or economic trends, restructuring actions, lower projections of profitability, or a sustained decline in our market capitalization.
Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their economic lives. When the carrying value is not considered recoverable, an impairment loss for the amount by which the carrying value of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value is recognized, with an offsetting reduction in the carrying value of the related intangible asset.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenues from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This guidance applies to any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The core principle of this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance supersedes existing revenue recognition guidance, including most industry-specific guidance, as well as certain related guidance on accounting for contract costs. For public entities, this guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its financial statements.
Note 2. Acquisition
On July 1, 2014, we purchased substantially all of the gaming assets of GemGroup (Acquired Business), a manufacturer of casino currency, cards and table layouts primarily sold under the Gemaco® brand, for $19.75 million subject to certain post-closing working capital adjustments. Two million dollars of the purchase price was placed in escrow to secure GemGroup's indemnification obligations. We borrowed $10.0 million under a demand line of credit with HSBC Bank USA, to partially fund the purchase. This acquisition strengthens our manufacturing capabilities and increases our US market share in both playing cards and table layouts, two important sources of recurring revenue. Further, it expands our product offerings in the growing Asia-Pacific region as the Gemaco brand has a strong market presence in the Asia-Pacific layout business. This acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method required by ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. As a result, the gaming assets and liabilities of GemGroup are recorded as of the completion of the acquisition, at their respective estimated fair values, and consolidated with our assets and liabilities. The results of the Acquired Business have been consolidated with the Company beginning on the date of the acquisition (July 1, 2014).
As of September 30, 2014, $0.3 million of acquisition related expenses were incurred.
The following table describes the acquisition consideration paid, or estimated to be paid (dollars in thousands):
Cash | $ | 19,750 | ||
Purchase agreement contingencies | 249 | |||
Total preliminary estimated acquisition consideration | $ | 19,999 |
The purchase agreement contingencies represent our best estimate, as of the release of this Form 10-Q, of the closing working capital adjustment.
7 |
The estimated acquisition consideration has been preliminarily assigned based on estimates of the fair values of assets and liabilities acquired as of the acquisition date. The assignment of the preliminary estimated acquisition consideration is based on estimates, assumptions, valuations and other studies which have not yet been finalized. The final amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed could differ materially from the amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated combined financial statements. The final determination is subject to the completion of the valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, expected during the fourth quarter of 2014.
The assignment of the preliminary estimated acquisition consideration is as follows (dollars in thousands):
Accounts receivable | $ | 2,317 | ||
Inventories | 1,961 | |||
Prepaid Expenses | 70 | |||
Other current assets | 40 | |||
Property and Equipment | 5,126 | |||
Intangible assets | 2,004 | |||
Goodwill | 10,275 | |||
Accounts payable | (1,126 | ) | ||
Accrued liabilities | (617 | ) | ||
Other liabilities | (51 | ) | ||
Total preliminary estimated acquisition consideration | $ | 19,999 |
The fair value of the significant identified intangible assets was estimated using the market approach and income approach. Inputs used in the methodologies primarily included projected future cash flows, discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. The total amount of intangible assets acquired subject to amortization expense is $2.0 million, with a residual value estimated to be zero and weighted-average amortization period of 15 years, subject to final determination. Goodwill arising from the acquisition is mainly attributable to synergies and improved market position.
The company’s consolidated net revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, included $5.6 million attributable to the Acquired Business since the acquisition. Due to continued integration of the combined businesses since the day of acquisition, it is impracticable to determine the earnings or loss contributed by the acquisition.
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2013, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 have been prepared as if the acquisition of the gaming assets of GemGroup had occurred at January 1, 2013 (unaudited; in thousands, except per share data):

The unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations do not purport to be indicative of the results that would have been obtained if the above acquisition had actually occurred as of the dates indicated or of those results that may be obtained in the future. The unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations do not include the final adjustments to net income to give the final effects to depreciation of property, plant and equipment acquired and amortization of intangible assets acquired as the Company currently is working to complete its valuation of the assets and liabilities acquired and is unable to determine those final effects. Upon completion of the valuation, the Company intends to make adjustments for these items in future pro forma disclosures. These unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations were derived, in part, from the historical financial statements of GemGroup and other available information and assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

We have determined that all of our marketable securities are Level 1 financial instruments, with asset values recorded at quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings and Contingencies
We are engaged in disputes and claims that arose in the normal course of business. We believe the ultimate outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. Liabilities for material claims against us are accrued when a loss is considered probable and can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs associated with claims are expensed as incurred.
On March 21, 2014, Walker Digital Table Systems (WDTS) and PJM Gaming (PJM) informed the Company that International Game Technology (IGT) was in breach of an agreement under which the Company was granted a distribution license relating to RFID technology. Concurrently, WDTS and PJM filed suit against the Company in U.S. District Court for patent infringement of four patents licensed to IGT by the agreement. On July 8, 2014, the dispute was resolved and the suit against the Company was dismissed, with prejudice. The Company, WDTS and PJM, and IGT each entered into separate license agreements with the other two parties. Under our agreement with IGT, we acquired the two patents pursuant to which we had an exclusive license from IGT to manufacture and distribute RFID casino currency, readers and systems in the United States.

Commitments
On March 13, 2014, we entered into a binding letter of intent to acquire substantially all of the net gaming assets of GemGroup for $22.5 million. In accordance with the letter of intent, we deposited $1.0 million with an escrow agent. The purchase price was subsequently adjusted to $19.75 million pursuant to an amended binding letter of intent dated May 20, 2014. On July 1, 2014, we completed the acquisition of GemGroup for $19.75 million, subject to certain post-closing working capital adjustments. We financed the acquisition using a combination of cash and bank financing (see Note 2 – Acquisition).
As of September 30, 2014, we had exclusive rights to two patents (licensed from IGT) related to RFID for use in casino currencies, as well as any gaming table tracking system and method. The patents expire in 2015 and cumulative minimum payments for these rights were $125,000. On July 8, 2014, we acquired the two patents for $25,000. These patents allow us to market, sell, manufacture and distribute RFID casino currency, readers and systems in the US.

Note 11. Geographic and Product Line Information
We manufacture and sell casino table game equipment in one operating segment - casino table game products. Although the Company derives its revenues from a number of different product lines, the Company neither allocates resources based on the operating results from the individual product lines, nor manages each individual product line as a separate business unit. Our chief operating decision maker is our Chief Executive Officer (CEO). He manages our operations on a consolidated basis and assesses overall corporate profitability in making decisions about corporate resource allocation. Our CEO is also the chief operating manager for each of our entities in the United States, France and Macau; that is, the individual locations do not have “segment” or “product line” managers who report to our CEO.

Note 12. Stockholders’ Equity
On December 1, 2011, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program which authorized the repurchase of up to 5%, or 409,951 shares, of common stock. On November 30, 2012, the Board of Directors increased the number of shares available for repurchase to 498,512 shares. From the program’s inception through September 30, 2014, we repurchased an aggregate of 282,922 shares of our common stock at a cost of $2,066,728, or a weighted-average price of $7.30 per share. As of September 30, 2014, 215,590 shares remain authorized for repurchase.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2014, no shares were repurchased. During the quarter ended September 30, 2013, we repurchased 15,869 shares of our common stock under this program at a cost of $127,517, or a weighted-average price of $8.04 per share.
14 |
Repurchases are subject to market conditions, share price, and other factors, as well as periodic review by the Board of Directors. Repurchases have been and will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws in the open market, in privately-negotiated transactions, and/or pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 for trading plans. To assist the implementation of the program, our Board of Directors adopted a 10b5-1 Purchase Plan on December 3, 2012 (the “Plan”). As permitted by the Plan, on August 5, 2013, the Board of Directors elected to terminate the Plan effective August 12, 2013. While the Plan has been terminated, the repurchase program remains in effect. The repurchase program does not specify an expiration date and it may be suspended or discontinued at any time. In addition to terminating the Plan, the Board of Directors imposed a minimum six month time period from the effective date of termination of the Plan before the Company could make any additional repurchases under the repurchase program.

Note 14. Subsequent events
On November 5, 2014, we informed approximately 100 full-time employees that we would be relocating our Mexican based card production to our facility in Blue Springs, Missouri. In the remainder of 2014, we expect to incur approximately $0.4 million of pre-tax, one time charges in connection with the transition, most of which will be cash expenditures. These charges include primarily employee separation costs as well as equipment and inventory impairment charges and travel and training costs. We expect the relocation to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2015. The relocation is expected to provide significant savings in the manufacturing of cards and is in line with the Company's overall plan to streamline its operations and reduce its overhead and operating expenses.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding of our results of operations and our present financial condition. The condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contain additional detailed information that should be referred to when reviewing this material. When we cross-reference to a “Note” herein, we are referring to the notes in Part I, Item 1. of this Form 10-Q. Statements in this discussion may be forward-looking. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ significantly from those expressed. See Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2013.
For a more extensive overview and information on our products, as well as general information, see Item 1. “Business” of our Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2013.
Overview of Our Business
We custom manufacture and supply casino currency including low- and high-frequency radio frequency identification device (RFID) casino currency, RFID solutions for casino currency (consisting of low- and high-frequency RFID casino currency readers, antennas, casino currency authentication software, casino currency inventory software applications, and software maintenance services), table layouts, playing cards, dice, gaming furniture, roulette wheels, table accessories, and other products that are used with casino table games such as blackjack, poker, baccarat, craps, and roulette. GPIC sells its casino table game equipment under the brand names of Paulson®, Bourgogne et Grasset® (BG®), Blue Chip (BC®) and Bud Jones®. On July 1, 2014, GPIC started manufacturing and selling playing cards and table layouts under the recently acquired Gemaco® brand name (see Note 2 – Acquisition). GPIC is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, with offices in Beaune, France; Macau S.A.R., China; San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico; Blue Springs, Missouri; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Gulfport, Mississippi. We sell our products to licensed casinos worldwide. We operate in one segment and have three operating subsidiaries: GPI USA (including GPI Mexicana, our maquiladora manufacturing operation in Mexico and our manufacturing operation in Blue Springs, Missouri), GPI SAS, and GPI Asia. Our subsidiaries have the following distribution and product focus:
• | GPI USA sells in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and Latin America. GPI USA sells our full product line, with most of the products manufactured at our facility in San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico and, since July 1, 2014, at our facility in Blue Springs, Missouri. The remainder is either manufactured in France or purchased from United States vendors. We also warehouse inventory in San Luis, Arizona and at our Las Vegas, Nevada headquarters, and have sales offices in Las Vegas; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Gulfport, Mississippi. |
• | GPI SAS sells primarily in Europe and Africa out of its office in Beaune, France. GPI SAS predominantly sells casino currencies, including both American-style, known as chips, and European-style, known as plaques and jetons. Most of the products sold by GPI SAS are manufactured in France, with the remainder manufactured in Mexico. |
• | GPI Asia, with an office in Macau S.A.R., China, is the exclusive distributor of GPI USA and GPI SAS products in the Asia-Pacific region. GPI Asia primarily sells casino currencies, manufactured in France or in Mexico, as well as RFID product solutions. Since July 1, 2014, GPI Asia also sells layouts manufactured in Macau. |
Historically, we have experienced significant fluctuations in our quarterly operating results and expect such fluctuations to continue. These fluctuations primarily reflect the opening of new casinos, the expansion of existing casinos, or large replacement orders for casino currency, our primary product line, which typically represents approximately 60% of our revenues. The timing of these events is difficult to forecast and largely beyond our ability to influence, and results in variability in our revenues and earnings. While we pursue most large projects years in advance, both large and small sales opportunities arise with little prior notice. Our backlog, which reflects signed orders to be delivered in 2014 (does not include orders generated from the Acquired Business), was as follows at September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013 (in millions):
16 |
GPI Asia | GPI USA | GPI SAS | Total | |||||||||||||
September 30, 2014 | $ | 5.7 | $ | 3.7 | $ | 0.4 | $ | 9.8 | ||||||||
September 30, 2013 | $ | 2.3 | $ | 3.1 | $ | 1.2 | $ | 6.6 |
Outlook
We will not benefit from any major casino opening in the remainder of 2014. However, we anticipate securing and delivering orders in both the Americas and the Asia Pacific region in 2015.
Following our acquisition of GemGroup, we have started consolidating our card production to Blue Springs, Missouri. In the remainder of 2014, we expect to incur approximately $0.4 million of pre-tax, one time charges in connection with the transition but expect significant savings in the manufacturing of cards, our major recurring revenue product line. This is in line with our overall plan to streamline our operations and to continue reducing our operating expenses.
Financial and Operational Highlights
For the third quarter of 2014, our revenues were $20.3 million, an increase of $6.8 million, or 49.8%, compared to revenues of $13.5 million for the same period of 2013. For the third quarter of 2014, our net income was $2.8 million, compared to a net income of $0.1 million for the same period in 2013. The increase in our results for the three months ended September 30, 2014, was due to the additional income attributable to the Acquired Business and the increase of currency sales in the Asia region.
For the first nine months of 2014, our revenues were $41.0 million, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 3.3%, compared to revenues of $42.4 million for the same period of 2013. For the first nine months of 2014, our net income was $0.5 million, compared to net income of $0.6 million for the same period of 2013. The decrease in our results for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, was due to the overall decrease in currency sales and the increase in income tax expense, offset by the additional income attributable to the Acquired Business.
GPI SAS uses the euro as its functional currency. At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the US dollar to euro exchange rates were $1.27 and $1.38, respectively, which represents a 7.9% stronger dollar compared to the euro. The average exchange rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were $1.36 and $1.32, respectively, which represents a 3.0% weaker dollar compared to the euro.
GPI Mexicana uses the US dollar as its functional currency. At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Mexican peso to US dollar exchange rates were 13.49 and 13.07, respectively, which represents a 3.2% stronger dollar compared to the peso. The average exchange rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were 13.11 pesos and 12.68 pesos to the US dollar, respectively, which represents a 3.4% stronger dollar compared to the Mexican peso.
GPI Asia uses the US dollar as its functional currency. At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Macanese pataca to US dollar exchange rates was 7.87. The average exchange rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were 7.84 patacas to the US dollar.
Other Matters
On July 1, 2014, we acquired substantially all of the gaming assets of GemGroup for $19.75 million, subject to post-closing working capital adjustments, using a combination of cash and bank financing. GemGroup was a manufacturer of casino currency, cards and table layouts primarily sold under the Gemaco brand. We acquired the gaming assets of GemGroup to increase our card and layout recurring revenue and expand our footprint in the Asia market by manufacturing layouts in Macau. For additional information, see Note 2 – Acquisition.
On December 1, 2011, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program which authorized the repurchase of up to five percent, or 409,951 shares, of common stock. On November 30, 2012, the Board of Directors increased the number of shares available for repurchase to 498,512 shares. As of September 30, 2014, we have repurchased 282,922 shares and 215,590 shares remain authorized for repurchase.
On August 5, 2013, our Board of Directors voted to terminate our 10b5-1 purchase plan effective August 12, 2013. While the 10b5-1 purchase plan was terminated, the repurchase program remains in effect. However, there is no assurance that we will repurchase any additional shares under the repurchase program. For more information regarding the repurchase program, see Note 12 – Stockholders’ Equity.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Financial statement preparation requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using the same critical accounting estimates discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

Comparison of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014 and 2013
Revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, our revenues were $20.3 million, an increase of $6.8 million, or 49.8%, compared to revenues of $13.5 million during the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to the additional revenues from the Acquired Business and the increase of currency sales in the Asia region.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, our revenues were $41.0 million, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 3.31%, compared to revenues of $42.4 million during the same period in 2013. The decrease was primarily attributable to the lack of orders for casino openings/ expansions during the first semester of 2014, offset by the additional revenues from the Acquired Business.
Cost of Revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, cost of revenues was $13.4 million, an increase of $4.3 million, or 47.9%, compared to cost of revenues of $9.1 million for the same period in 2013. As a percentage of revenues, our cost of revenues decreased to 66.4% in 2014 compared to 67.3% in 2013.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, cost of revenues was $28.7 million, a decrease of $0.7 million, or 2.2%, compared to cost of revenues of $29.3 million for the same period in 2013. As a percentage of revenues, our cost of revenues increased to 70.0% in 2014 compared to 69.2% in 2013.
Gross Profit. For the three months ended September 30, 2014, gross profit was $6.8 million, an increase of $2.4 million, or 53.8%, compared to gross profit of $4.4 million for the same period in 2013. As a percentage of revenues, our gross profit increased from 32.7% to 33.6%. This is mainly due to an increase in sales of our currency products which caused fixed manufacturing costs to be allocated over a greater revenue base.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, gross profit was $12.3 million, a decrease of $0.8 million, or 5.9%, compared to gross profit of $13.1 million for the same period in 2013. As a percentage of revenues, our gross profit decreased from 30.8% to 30.0%. This is mainly due to a decrease in sales of our currency products which caused fixed manufacturing costs to be allocated over a lower revenue base.
Selling, Administrative, and Research and Development Expenses. The following tables present the selling, administrative, and research and development expenses (in thousands) and as a percentage of revenues:

For the three months ended September 30, 2014, selling, administrative, and research and development expenses were $4.2 million, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 4.4%, compared to selling, administrative, and research and development expenses of $4.4 million during the same period in 2013. Selling, administrative, and research and development expenses decreased as a percent of revenue to 20.8% in the third quarter of 2014 from 32.6% in the same period in 2013.
Marketing and sales expenses increased by $0.2 million during the third quarter of 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. This is primarily due to an increase of $0.5 million in expenses associated with the Acquired Business (see Note2 – Acquisition), offset by a decrease of $0.3 million in trade-show cost. The decrease in trade-show costs is mainly related to the scheduling of the G2E Las Vegas trade-show. We will account for the cost of the trade-show in the fourth quarter of 2014 whereas in 2013 it was accounted for in the third quarter.
General and administrative expenses decreased by $0.2 million during the third quarter of 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. This is primarily due to a decrease of $0.3 million in compensation expense and $0.2 million in legal, consulting and audit costs, offset by $0.4 million in expenses associated with the Acquired Business (see Note2 – Acquisition).
Research and development expenses decreased by $0.1 million during the third quarter of 2014, compared to the same period in 2013.

Selling, administrative, and research and development expenses decreased as a percent of revenue to 28.8% in the first nine months of 2014 from 30.5% in the same period in 2013.
Marketing and sales expenses decreased by $0.2 million during the first nine months of 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. This is primarily due to a decrease of $0.3 million in trade-show, $0.2 million in sales development expenses related to our marketing and sales in Asia, and $0.1 million in travel related costs, offset by $0.5 million in expenses associated with the Acquired Business (see Note2 – Acquisition).

Income Taxes. Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was (1.5%) and (388.2%), respectively. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was favorably affected by a smaller increase in the valuation allowance related to our foreign tax credit, compared to the prior quarter, as a result of the GemGroup acquisition.
Our effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was 34.6% and (176.8%), respectively. Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was unfavorably affected by an increase in the valuation allowance related to our foreign tax credits, partially offset by a favorable impact from the foreign rate differential on income from our Macau subsidiary, GPI Asia, and the tax benefit from a research credit from our French subsidiary, GPI SAS. Without the increase in the valuation allowance related to foreign tax credits, our effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 would have been 8.1% and 5.5%, respectively.
We account for uncertain tax positions in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. There were no unrecognized tax benefits reported at September 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity and Capital Resources. Historically our primary source of liquidity and capital resources has been cash from operations. On June 26, 2014, GPI USA and HSBC Bank USA entered into a demand line of credit agreement with a limit of $10.0 million. Interest on the line of credit is LIBOR plus 2.25%. GPIC borrowed $10.0 million under the line of credit to finance the acquisition of GemGroup. The line of credit is secured by a lien on all of the assets of GPI USA and is guaranteed by GPIC. The line of credit is subject to renewal by the bank in its sole discretion on June 30 of each year. Other potential sources of liquidity and capital resources include, but are not limited to, marketable securities and potential bank credit facilities, both in the United States and abroad. We believe that the combination of these resources will satisfy our needs for working capital, capital expenditures, any purchases of common stock under our stock repurchase program, litigation, potential dividends or acquisitions.
At September 30, 2014, we had $9.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $1.6 million in marketable securities, totaling $11.3 million. Of this amount, $5.3 million is held by GPI ASIA, $3.4 million is held by GPI USA, and $2.6 million is held by GPI SAS. Of those amounts held outside the United States, we would be subject to taxation if we were to repatriate those amounts, though foreign tax credits may be available to offset such taxes. We may repatriate amounts from GPI SAS and, accordingly, our financial statements reflect the tax impacts that would result from repatriation. We do not anticipate repatriation from GPI Asia and, accordingly, our financial statements do not reflect the tax impacts that would result from repatriation.
Working Capital (See Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets). The following summarizes our cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and working capital (all in thousands), and our current ratio:

Working capital | 15,129 | 32,069 | (16,940 | ) | (52.8 | )% | ||||||||||
Current ratio | 1.7 | 6.3 |
At September 30, 2014, working capital totaled $15.1 million, a decrease of $16.9 million, or 52.8%, compared to working capital of $32.1 million at December 31, 2013. The change in working capital was due to an increase in current liabilities of $15.2 million and a decrease in current assets of $1.7 million. These changes are mainly due to the purchase of the Acquired Business (see Note 2 – Acquisition). The increase in current liabilities was due primarily to increases in short term debt of $10.0 million, in accounts payable of $2.5 million, in customer deposits and deferred revenue of $1.5 million, and in accrued liabilities of $1.2 million. The decrease in current assets was due primarily to decreases in cash and marketable securities of $8.9 million and in other current assets of $0.6 million, offset by increases in accounts receivables of $4.7 million and in inventories of $3.4 million.
Cash Flows (See Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows). The following summarizes our cash flows (in thousands):

Net change | $ | (4,747 | ) | $ | (1,161 | ) | (3,586 | ) | 308.9 | % |
The increase in cash flows provided by operating activities was primarily caused by an increase in liabilities of $7.6 million and an increase in non-cash items of $1.6 million, offset by a decrease in assets of $2.3 million.
The decrease in cash flows provided by investing activities was primarily due to an increase in purchase of business assets of $19.0 million (see Note 2 – Acquisition), and a decrease in net proceeds from the sale of marketable securities of $3.3 million, offset by a decrease of capital expenditures of $1.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013.
The increase in cash flows provided by financing activities was due to the inflow of funds from the demand line of credit for $10.0 million (see Note 8 –Debt) and the lack of common stock repurchases in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Capital Expenditures. We plan to purchase approximately $1.8 million in property, plant, and equipment during the remainder of 2014. In the first nine months of 2014, we purchased $0.4 million of property, plant, and equipment.
Cash Dividend. Our Board of Directors has no current plans to pay a regular dividend on our common stock, but may evaluate the merit of paying a dividend from time to time.
Backlog. At September 30, 2014, our backlog, which reflects signed orders to be delivered in 2014 (does not include orders generated from the Acquired Business), was $9.8 million, consisting of $5.7 million for GPI Asia, $3.7 million for GPI USA, and $0.4 million for GPI SAS. At September 30, 2013, our backlog of signed orders for 2013 was $6.6 million, consisting of $2.3 million for GPI Asia, $3.1 million for GPI USA, and $1.2 million for GPI SAS.
Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
On June 26, 2014, GPIC and HSBC Bank USA entered into a demand line of credit agreement with a limit of $10.0 million (see Note 8 –Debt).
