Equity [Abstract] |
Reverse/Forward Stock Split | Reverse/Forward Stock Split On June 11, 2013, a Special Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, consisting of three independent directors, unanimously approved a reverse/forward stock split transaction (collectively referred to as the “reverse/forward split”), subject to shareholder approval. The reverse/forward split was intended to reduce the Company’s shareholder account administration costs by reducing the number of its shareholders. On September 12, 2013, at the Company’s annual shareholders meeting, Travelzoo shareholders voted in favor of the reverse/forward split, with the transaction receiving the votes of both (A) a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock and (B) a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock that are not held or controlled, directly or indirectly, by directors or officers of the Company, including, without limitation, the shares held by Azzurro, our principal stockholder. On November 6, 2013, the Special Committee approved the execution of the transaction after receiving an opinion from a financial advisor regarding the fairness of the transaction from a financial point of view to the Company's shareholders whose positions, individually considered, consisted of fewer than 25 shares, of the per-share consideration to be received by such shareholders in the reverse/forward split. The Special Committee received legal counsel from Young Conaway Stargatt & Taylor, LLP in connection with its review of the transaction. In addition, the Company received legal counsel from Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP and Bryan Cave LLP in connection with the transaction. On November 6, 2013, based upon the Special Committee’s approval of the transaction and the receipt of a fairness opinion from the financial advisor, the Company executed the shareholder approved reverse/forward split. The reverse/forward split transaction consisted of a 1-for-25 reverse stock split of the Company's outstanding common stock, followed immediately by a 25-for-1 forward stock split. Shareholders who held less than 25 shares immediately prior to the reverse stock split received a right to cash payment based on and equal to their resulting fractional interest times the price of a share equal to the higher of (a) the trailing ten day average trading price of the Company’s common stock immediately preceding the consummation date of the reverse/forward split or (b) the average aggregate sales price received in the sale on the open market of the shares resulting from aggregation of the fractionalized interests. Shareholders that held 25 or more shares of common stock immediately before the reverse/forward split did not receive a right to cash payment; instead these shareholders continued to hold the same number of shares after completion of the reverse/forward split as they held immediately prior. A description of the terms and conditions of the reverse/forward split was set forth in the Company’s definitive Proxy Statement for the 2013 annual shareholders meeting filed with the SEC on July 25, 2013. The reverse/forward split resulted in approximately 643,218 of the Company’s outstanding shares being fractionalized. Shareholders holding less than 25 shares of common stock immediately prior to the reverse split did not receive fractional shares in the reverse stock split; instead these shareholders had their shares converted into the right to receive a cash payment in exchange for and in proportion to the fractional share interests resulting from the reverse stock split. To fund the cash payment due to shareholders that held a right to receive cash from the transaction, the fractional share interests were aggregated by the Company’s transfer agent, who sold the aggregated shares in the open market following the execution of the transaction. As of December 31, 2013, the Company completed the sales of the aggregated fractional shares from the reverse/forward split in the open market and the sales proceeds of $13.6 million were held by the Company’s transfer agent in anticipation of the payment to be made to the fractionalized shareholders and were included in Funds Held for Reverse/Forward Stock Split on the Company’s balance sheet. As of December 31, 2013, the total amount payable of $13.7 million to fractionalized shareholders as a result of the execution of the reverse/forward split was reflected as a Payable to Shareholders for Reverse/Forward Stock Split on the Company’s balance sheet. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company’s retained earnings includes a total adjustment of $346,000 related to the reverse/forward split, which includes transaction costs. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company’s retained earnings includes a total adjustment of $102,000 related to the reverse/forward split, which includes transaction costs. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company’s transfer agent issued checks amounting to $13.4 million to pay shareholders that held a right to cash in exchange for the fractional shares that were a result of the reverse/forward split. The Company's transfer agent intends to pay $191,000 due to the remaining shareholders that hold a right to cash after receiving the required documentation regarding their physical stock certificates. As of June 30, 2015, the sale proceeds of $191,000 are held by the Company’s transfer agent in anticipation of the payment to be made to the fractionalized shareholders and are included in Prepaid Expense and Other on the Company’s balance sheet. As of June 30, 2015, the total amount payable of $191,000 to fractionalized shareholders as a result of the execution of the reverse/forward split is included in Accrued Expenses and Other on the Company’s balance sheet.
