Equity [Abstract] |
Capital Stock and Derivative Instruments | Note 9: Capital Stock and Derivative Instruments On the Effective Date, all shares of common and preferred equity securities previously issued by WMI were cancelled and extinguished. As of the Effective Date, and pursuant to WMIHC’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles”), WMIHC was authorized to issue up to 500,000,000 shares of common stock and up to 5,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, in one or more series, each with a par value of $0.00001 per share. 200,000,000 shares of common stock were issued by WMIH pursuant to the Plan and in reliance on Section 1145 of the United States Bankruptcy Code on the Effective Date. On the Reincorporation Date, all shares of common and preferred equity securities previously issued by WMIHC automatically were converted into one share of the substantially similar common stock, Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock, as applicable, of WMIH. At the same time, each outstanding option, right or warrant to acquire shares of WMIHC’s common stock was converted into an option, right or warrant to acquire an equal number of shares of WMIH’s common stock under the same terms and conditions as the original options, rights or warrants. As of the Reincorporation Date, and pursuant to WMIH’s Certificate of Incorporation, WMIH is authorized to issue up to 3,500,000,000 shares of common stock and up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, in one or more series, each with a par value of $0.00001 per share. All of the terms of the agreements described below and attributed to WMIH are also attributable to WMIHC relative to the various agreements and instruments prior to the Reincorporation Date. The references to WMIH are based on the date this Form 10-K has been filed. The references would have been to WMIHC prior to the Reincorporation Date. As described in Note 8: Financing Arrangements, WMIHC entered into (i) the Note Purchase Agreement, (ii) the Investment Agreement and (iii) the Investor Rights Agreement on January 30, 2014. On January 30, 2014, pursuant to the Investment Agreement, WMIHC issued 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock having the terms, rights, obligations and preferences contained in the Articles of Amendment of WMIHC dated January 30, 2014 for a purchase price equal to $11.1 million and has issued to KKR Fund warrants to purchase, in the aggregate, 61.4 million shares of WMIH’s common stock, 30.7 million of which have an exercise price of $1.32 per share and 30.7 million of which have an exercise price of $1.43 per share (together, the “Warrants”). The Series A Preferred Stock has rights substantially similar to those associated with WMIH’s common stock, with the exception of a liquidation preference, conversion rights and customary anti-dilution protections. The Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference equal to the greater of (i) $10.00 per one million shares of Series A Preferred Stock plus declared but unpaid dividends on such shares and (ii) the amount that the holder would be entitled to in a relevant transaction had the Series A Preferred Stock been converted to common stock of WMIH. The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at a conversion price of $1.10 per share into shares of common stock of WMIH either at the option of the holder or automatically upon transfer by KKR Fund to a non-affiliated party. As a result of the calculation of a beneficial conversion feature as required by accounting standards codification topic 470, Debt a preferred deemed dividend of $9.5 million was recorded in conjunction with the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock. This preferred deemed dividend resulted in an increase to our accumulated deficit, and an increase in additional paid in capital. Further, KKR Fund, as the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Warrants, has received other rights pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement as described below. The Warrants have a five-year term from the date of issuance and are subject to customary structural adjustment provisions for stock splits, combinations, recapitalizations and other similar transactions. KKR Fund’s rights as a holder of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Warrants, and the rights of any subsequent holder that is an affiliate of KKR Fund (together with KKR Fund, the “Series A Holders”) are governed by the Investor Rights Agreement. Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, for so long as the Series A Holders own 50% of the Series A Preferred Stock issued as of January 30, 2014 (or the underlying common stock of WMIH), the Series A Holders will have the right to appoint two of the nine directors that currently comprise the Board. In accordance with the Investor Rights Agreement, except for the issuance of WMIH’s common stock in respect of the Warrants and the Series A Preferred Stock, KKR Fund and its affiliates shall not purchase or acquire any equity securities of WMIH or its subsidiaries without WMIH’s prior written consent, subject to certain exceptions. The Investor Rights Agreement also provides the Series A Holders with registration rights, including three long form demand registration rights, unlimited short form demand registration rights and customary piggyback registration rights with respect to WMIH’s common stock (and WMIH’s common stock underlying the Series A Preferred Stock and the Warrants), subject to certain minimum thresholds, customary blackout periods and lockups of 180 days. On July 1, 2015, WMIH filed a shelf registration statement (the “Initial Registration Statement”) covering resales of Series B Preferred Stock and WMIH’s common stock issuable upon mandatory conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. On November 23, 2015, WMIH amended the Initial Registration Statement to cover WMIH’s common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and shares of WMIH’s common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants issued in connection with the issuance of our Series A Preferred Stock currently outstanding (as amended, the “Registration Statement”). The Registration Statement was declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) on November 25, 2015. For as long as the Series A Holders beneficially own any shares of common stock of WMIH or Series A Preferred Stock or any of the Warrants, WMIH has agreed to provide customary Rule 144A information rights, to provide the Series A Holders with regular audited and unaudited financial statements and to allow the Series A Holders or their representatives to inspect WMIH’s books and records. The foregoing description of (i) the Investor Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Investor Rights Agreement, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as Exhibit 4.2 on Form 8-K on January 31, 2014, and incorporated by reference, (ii) the Warrants are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Form of Tranche A Warrant and Form of Tranche B Warrant, which were filed with the SEC as Exhibits 4.3 and 4.4, respectively, on Form 8-K on January 31, 2014, and incorporated by reference, and (iii) the Series A Preferred Stock is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Articles of Amendment of WMIH dated January 30, 2014, which were filed with the SEC as Exhibit 4.5 on Form 8-K on January 31, 2014, and incorporated by reference, the Form of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Certificate, which was filed with the SEC as Exhibit 4.6 on Form 8-K on January 31, 2014, and incorporated by reference, and the Certificate of Incorporation, which was filed with the SEC as Exhibit 3.1 on Form 8-K12G3 on May 13, 2015, and incorporated by reference. On January 5, 2015, WMIH, in connection with an offering of 600,000 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock, filed w ith the Secretary of State of Washington Articles of Amendment of Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles of Amendment”) containing the Designation of Rights and Preferences of the 3% Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”) creating the Series B Preferred Stock and designating the rights and preferences of the Series B Preferred Stock. The foregoing descriptions of the Articles of Amendment and the Certificate of Designation are qualified in their entirety by the provisions of the Articles of Amendment and the Certificate of Designation, filed as Exhibits 3.1 and 4.1 to a Form 8-K on January 5, 2015, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein, and the Certificate of Incorporation, which was filed with the SEC as Exhibit 3.1 on Form 8-K12G3 on May 13, 2015, and incorporated by reference. On January 5, 2015, in connection with the offering and pursuant to that certain Purchase Agreement, dated December 19, 2014 (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among WMIH, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“Citi”) and KCM (KCM and Citi together, the “Initial Purchasers”), WMIH entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Initial Purchasers (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which WMIH has agreed that, subject to certain conditions, WMIH will use its reasonable efforts to (i) file a shelf registration statement covering resales of WMIH’s common stock issuable upon mandatory conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock no later than six months after January 5, 2015 (the “Issue Date”); (ii) file a shelf registration statement covering resales of the Series B Preferred Stock no later than one year after the Issue Date; and (iii) cause each of these shelf registration statements to be declared effective under the Securities Act. On July 1, 2015, WMIH filed the Initial Registration Statement covering resales of Series B Preferred Stock and shares of WMIH’s common stock issuable upon mandatory conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. On November 23, 2015, WMIH amended the Initial Registration Statement to cover WMIH’s common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and shares of WMIH’s common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants issued in connection with the issuance of our Series A Preferred Stock currently outstanding. The Registration Statement was declared effective under the Securities Act on November 25, 2015. The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement, filed on Form 8-K on January 5, 2015, as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein. On January 5, 2015, in connection with the offering and pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, WMIH entered into an Escrow Agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) with Citibank, N.A., as Escrow Agent (the “Escrow Agent”), pursuant to which WMIH caused to be deposited with the Escrow Agent the amount of $598.5 million, representing the proceeds of the offering of Series B Preferred Stock less offering fees payable on the Issue Date but before payment of other offering fees and expenses (including fees contingent upon future events). These net proceeds will be released from escrow from time to time to WMIH as instructed by WMIH in amounts necessary to (i) pay certain fees related to the offering that may become payable to the Initial Purchasers, (ii) finance WMIH’s efforts to explore and/or fund, in whole or in part, acquisitions, whether completed or not, including reasonable attorney fees and expenses related thereto, accounting expenses, due diligence and financial advisor fees and expenses, (iii) pay certain amounts that may become payable to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of certain put events, (iv) pay certain amounts that would become payable to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock upon a mandatory redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock, and (v) pay certain expenses related to the offering. The entire net proceeds will be released from escrow as instructed by WMIH upon consummation of a Qualified Acquisition (as defined in Article VI of the Certificate of Incorporation). If a Qualified Acquisition is not consummated by January 5, 2018, and no Acquisitions (as defined in Article VI of the Certificate of Incorporation) have been consummated such that all of the Series B Preferred Stock remains outstanding and has not been converted to WMIH’s common stock, the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock becomes redeemable. The aggregate redemption costs, assuming all 600,000 shares remain outstanding, of all of the Series B Preferred Stock is $600.0 million, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, whether or not declared. As of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the balance remaining in the escrow account totaled approximately $572.9 million and $571.4 million, respectively. The foregoing description of the Escrow Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of the Escrow Agreement, filed on Form 8-K on January 5, 2015, as Exhibit 10.2 and incorporated by reference herein. The Series B Preferred Stock are hybrid financial instruments that blend characteristics of both equity and debt securities. The terms of the Series B Preferred Stock provide for either redemption of the principal and interest for cash at maturity or in the event of certain predetermined circumstances (“Forward Component”) or mandatory conversion into WMIH’s common stock (“Embedded Conversion Feature” or “ECF”). The Series B Preferred Stock also embody contingent equity-linked share price protections on the ECF in the form of a variable conversion price based on a 20 trading day average of volume weighted-average price. Upon any conversion of Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with its terms, the Series B Preferred Stock shall convert based on the outstanding principal and accrued interest, subject to a floor of $1.75 per share of WMIH’s common stock and a ceiling of $2.25 per share. As a result, the Company determined that the Series B Preferred Stock contain certain embedded derivative features. Management’s evaluation resulted in the conclusion that the compound derivative financial instrument required bifurcation and separately accounted for the embedded conversion feature option as a derivative. A derivative liability results primarily when the Company average stock price (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation) exceeds the conversion price, including the ceiling conversion price of $2.25, as defined by the Certificate of Incorporation. A derivative asset results when the Company’s average stock price is less than the conversion price, including the floor price of $1.75. The aggregate fair value of the embedded conversion feature was a liability of $66.2 million on the date of issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock. At December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the fair value of the embedded conversion feature was an asset of $80.7 million and a liability of $120.8 million, respectively. Any change in the fair value of the embedded conversion feature will constitute other income or expense, as the case may be, in the applicable reporting period. Upon conversion or redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock, any asset or liability related to the embedded conversion feature would be eliminated. During the year ended December 31, 2016 the fair market value decreased by $201.5 million, resulting in a corresponding other income item. Between January 5, 2015 and December 31, 2015, the fair market value increased by $54.6 million resulting in a corresponding other expense item. The change in fair value is included as other income or expense in the consolidated statements of operations for the respective periods. The Series B Preferred Stock was not issued until January 5, 2015, therefore there was no embedded conversion feature outstanding as of December 31, 2014, and consequently no change in embedded conversion feature for any quarterly or annual period prior to 2015. WMIH issued restricted stock grants to members of the Board totaling $0.5 million, $0.7 million and $1.3 million of aggregate intrinsic value during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The restricted shares noted above vest over a three year period. On May 15, 2015, WMIH issued restricted stock grants to our Chief Executive Officer, William C. Gallagher and our Chief Operating Officer, Thomas L. Fairfield, in conjunction with employment agreements totaling $9.8 million of aggregate fair value (the “Exec Grants”) based on the $2.76 trading price of WMIH shares at the close of business on the date issued. WMIH may be required to issue additional shares if the conversion price applicable to the Series B Preferred Stock is less than $2.25 per share. The Exec Grants will vest in full and will be recognized as compensation expense upon the consummation of a Qualified Acquisition, subject to the executives continued employment with the Company until such time. The foregoing description of the restricted stock agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Gallagher Restricted Stock Agreement and the Fairfield Restricted Stock Agreement (collectively, the “Executive Agreements”), which were filed as Exhibit 10.3 and Exhibit 10.5, respectively, of Form 8-K12G3 filed on May 13, 2015 and incorporated herein by reference. The fair market value of the Exec Grants as of December 31, 2016, approximates $7.1 million as a result of the terms of the Executive Agreements which would result in additional share issuances if the value is below $2.25 per share limited to a maximum of shares based on a minimum conversion price of $1.75 per share. The stock price was $1.55 per share at the close of the market on December 31, 2016 and if the Exec Grants had vested then the minimum conversion price of $1.75 per share would have been utilized, therefore, a total of 1,015,874 additional shares would have been required to be issued, 507,937 additional shares each to both Mr. Gallagher and Mr. Fairfield. The total unamortized value related to the unvested restricted share grant totals $7.7 million, $10.0 million and $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The unamortized value of $7.7 million at December 31, 2016, if all are ultimately vested will be amortized according to the following schedule.

On June 1, 2016, WMIH issued 212,765 restricted stock grants to members of the Board totaling $0.5 million of aggregate fair value. The share price was determined based on the closing sales price of $2.35 on the date of the award. On April 28, 2015, WMIH issued 269,234 restricted stock grants to members of the Board totaling $0.7 million of aggregate fair value. The share price was determined based on the closing sales price of $2.60 on the date of the award. On May 15, 2015, WMIH issued a total of 1,777,778 restricted stock grants to each of William C. Gallagher and Thomas L. Fairfield.

The stock price was $1.55 per share at the close of the market on December 31, 2016 and if the Exec Grants had vested then the minimum rate of $1.75 per share would have been utilized, therefore, a total of 1,015,874 additional shares would have been required to be issued, 507,937 additional shares each to both Mr. Gallagher and Mr. Fairfield.

This Early Vesting resulted in a one-time charge to compensation and a corresponding increase in additional paid in capital totaling $382 thousand during the year ended December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2016, December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, 206,380,800, 206,168,035 and 202,343,245 shares of WMIH’s common stock were issued and outstanding, respectively.
