Commitments and Contingencies |
Commitments and Contingencies | Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies Lease Obligations We lease property and equipment under operating leases, typically with terms greater than 12 months, and determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. In general, an arrangement contains a lease if there is an identified asset and we have the right to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the economic benefit from the use of the identified asset. We record an operating lease liability at the present value of lease payments over the lease term on the commencement date. The related right of use (“ROU”) operating lease asset reflects rental escalation clauses, as well as renewal options and/or termination options. The exercise of lease renewal and/or termination options are at our discretion and are included in the determination of the lease term and lease payment obligations when it is deemed reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. When available, we use the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, certain leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, we must estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. We classify our leases as buildings, vehicles or computer and office equipment and do not separate lease and nonlease components of contracts for any of the aforementioned classifications. In accordance with applicable guidance, we do not record leases with terms that are less than one year on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. None of our lease agreements contain material restrictive covenants or residual value guarantees. Buildings We lease certain office and warehouse space at various locations in the United States where we provide services. These leases are typically greater than one year with fixed, escalating rents over the noncancelable terms and, therefore, ROU operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities are recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, with rent expense to be recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The remaining lease terms vary from approximately one to ten years as of March 31, 2021. We entered into a lease (“initial lease”) in October 2018, for approximately 80,000 square feet of office space for our new corporate headquarters in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In December 2018, we amended the initial lease to add approximately 29,000 square feet of additional office space, which is accounted for as a separate lease (“second lease”) in accordance with ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”). In December 2019, we further amended the lease which extended the expiration date of the initial lease, extended the expiration date of and added approximately 4,000 square feet to the second lease, as well as added approximately 37,000 square feet of additional office space, accounted for as a separate lease (“third lease”) in accordance with ASC 842. The portion of the space covered under the initial lease was placed in service in September 2019. This portion was recognized as an operating lease and included in the ROU operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The portion of the space covered under the second lease commenced on September 1, 2020. Finally, the portion of the space covered under the third lease is expected to be occupied and commence in the second half of 2021. Vehicles We lease vehicles for certain members of our field sales organization under a vehicle fleet program whereby the initial, noncancelable lease is for a term of 367 days, thus more than one year. Subsequent to the initial term, the lease becomes a month-to-month, cancelable lease. As of March 31, 2021, we had approximately 50 vehicles with agreements within the initial, noncancelable lease term that are recorded as ROU operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities. In addition to monthly rental fees specific to the vehicle, there are fixed monthly nonlease components that have been included in the ROU operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities. The nonlease components are not significant. Computer and Office Equipment We also have operating lease agreements for certain computer and office equipment. The remaining lease terms as of March 31, 2021, ranged from less than one year to approximately five years with fixed monthly payments that are included in the ROU operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities. The leases provide an option to purchase the related equipment at fair market value at the end of the lease. The leases will automatically renew as a month-to-month rental at the end of the lease if the equipment is not purchased or returned.

​ As of March 31, 2021, we have additional lease commitments of $7.1 million related to amendments to existing building leases that have not yet commenced. As the lessee we are involved in providing guidance to the lessor for related improvements, however these improvements are managed and owned by the lessor. Operating lease costs were $0.8 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Major Vendors We had purchases from two vendors that accounted for 33% of our total purchases for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and from two vendors that accounted for 32% of our total purchases for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Purchase Commitments We issued purchase orders prior to March 31, 2021, totaling $19.8 million for goods that we expect to receive within the next year. Retirement Plan We maintain a 401(k) retirement plan for our employees in which eligible employees can contribute a percentage of their pre-tax compensation. We recorded an expense related to our discretionary contr ibutions to the 401(k) plan of $0.3 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Legal Proceedings From time to time, we are subject to various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors. On February 13, 2019, we were served with a sealed amended complaint venued in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, captioned United States ex rel Veterans First Medical Supply, LLC vs. Tactile Medical Systems Technology, Inc., Case No. 18-2871, which had been filed on January 23, 2019. The complaint is a qui tam action on behalf of the United States brought by one of our competitors. The United States has declined to intervene in this action. The complaint alleges that we violated the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute and the Federal False Claims Act, claiming that we submitted false claims and made false statements in connection with the Medicare and Medicaid programs, and that we engaged in unlawful retaliation in violation of the Federal False Claims Act. The complaint seeks damages, statutory penalties, attorneys’ fees, treble damages and costs. We filed a motion to dismiss on April 5, 2019. This motion was denied on February 21, 2020. On March 6, 2020, we filed our answer to the complaint and asserted counterclaims. On May 7, 2020, the plaintiff filed a motion to dismiss our counterclaims. On September 8, 2020, we filed a motion for Partial Summary Judgment. On January 2, 2021, the plaintiff filed a motion for Partial Summary Judgment. These motions were decided on March 29, 2021, wherein the court denied plaintiff’s motion to dismiss our counterclaims; granted our motion for Partial Summary Judgment and dismissed Counts I (standalone/direct violation of the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute) and III (violation of the retaliation provision of the Federal False Claims Act) of the complaint; and denied plaintiff’s motion for Partial Summary Judgment. As a result, the remaining allegations consist of those in Count II (violations of the Federal False Claims Act) of the complaint. We believe the plaintiff’s remaining allegations are without merit and we intend to continue to vigorously defend against the lawsuit. We and certain of our present or former officers were sued in a purported securities class action lawsuit that was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota on September 29, 2020, and that is pending under the caption Brian Mart v. Tactile Systems Technology, Inc., et al., File No. 0:20-cv-02074-NEB-BRT. On April 19, 2021, the plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint against us and eight of our present and former officers and directors. Plaintiff seeks to represent a class consisting of investors who purchased our common stock in the market during the time period from May 7, 2018 through June 8, 2020 (“alleged class period”). The Amended Complaint alleges the following claims under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”): (1) that we and certain officer defendants made materially false or misleading public statements about our business, operational and compliance policies, and results during the alleged class period in violation of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act; (2) that we and the individual defendants engaged in a scheme to defraud investors in order to allow the individual defendants to sell our stock in violation of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act; (3) that the individual defendants engaged in improper insider trading of our stock in violation of Section 20A of the Exchange Act; and (4) that we and the individual defendants are liable under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act because each defendant is a controlling person. Defendants’ response to the Amended Complaint is due on June 18, 2021. We intend to move to dismiss the action.
