Skin in the game “What makes sense for the investor is different from what makes sense for the manager. And, as usual in human affairs, what determines the behavior are incentives for the decision maker.” — Charlie Munger, Vice Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway

harlie Munger has been Warren Buffett’s key business partner in building Berkshire Hathaway into one of the world’s greatest companies. A billionaire investor himself, Munger influenced Buffett’s own investment philosophy toward an emphasis on buying the best quality businesses, not merely the cheapest ones. At the wise age of 88, Munger remains a witty presence at Berkshire Hathaway’s annual

Jonathon FITE | shareholder meeting. A common theme in Munger’s speeches and writings is the role of incentives. Basically, human beings in any environment act in accordance with their own interests based on the incentives. When incentives are badly designed, disasters can result. The subprime financial crisis of 2008 is a good example. During the housing bubble, homebuyers got “interest-only, no-money-down” mortgages

from banks, and thus had little or no equity in their houses. These banks, in turn, quickly sold off those loans to Wall Street, and thus had little incentive to keep prudent lending standards. So it should have been no surprise that those loans defaulted at horrific levels when home prices fell. After all, the players had no skin in the game. (Unfortunately, the recent financial reform laws, though thousands of pages long, don’t really address this core Wall Street problem.) When we started our investment partnership more than five years ago, we were very mindful of the power of incentives in shaping behavior. That’s why we set up a “pure pay for performance” compensation structure, and required us, the fund managers, to hold all our equity

investments in the fund. The bulk of our families’ — and close friends’ — wealth is invested in our fund. Needless to say, our incentives are aligned with our investors. We have skin in the game. For the same reason, we like to own stocks of companies run by “owner operators” — CEOs who own lots of stock in the companies they manage. Such owner operators are focused on maximizing the long-term value of their company’s shares. They typically do not engage in egoboosting, flashy acquisitions, seek obscene pay packages, or over leverage the company. A good example of an owner operator was Jim Bernhard of Shaw Group. Long-time readers might recall the Shaw story, published in this column one year ago. Shaw, an engineering services giant, first caught our attention when Bernhard, the company’s founder, CEO and owner of $60 million of company shares, personally bought millions of dollars more of the

Servicemember’s Civil Relief Act A ccording to the U.S. Department of Defense records, through the end of 2012 there were approximately 1.4 million active duty U.S. military servicemembers deployed throughout the world and the U.S. When you include the almost 2 million people classified as dependents of such military personnel, there are approximately 3.4 million Americans who are directly affected by the military engagements in which the United States is and will be involved. Additionally, civilian contractors play major roles in conflicts involving the U.S. military. Beginning with the first Soldier’s and Sailor’s Civil Relief Act of 1918, the United States has attempted to address certain hardships imposed on people who are suddenly drafted or deployed into military conflicts. The most recent version of this

Scott ALAGOOD | attempt was codified at 50 U.S.C. App. sections 501-596 in 2003 (with changes effective in 2004), and also known as the Servicemember’s Civil Relief Act (the “Act”). The Act states that its purpose “is to provide for, strengthen, and expedite the national defense through protection … to servicemembers of the United States to enable such persons to devote their entire energy to the defense needs of the Nation, … and to provide for the temporary suspension of judicial and administrative pro-

ceedings and transactions that may adversely affect the civil rights of servicemembers during their military service.” The underpinnings of the Act try to balance the rights of the creditor and the servicemember by granting judicial discretion to delay the enforcement of remedies available to creditors or to allow the servicemember additional time to meet his or her financial obligations. Members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Reserves — who are ordered to report for military service — are covered by the Act. Additionally, any U.S. citizen that serves with the armed forces of a nation that is allied with the U.S. in prosecuting a war or military action against a common enemy is also covered by the Act. Dependents (servicemember’s spouse, child, or a person for whom the servicemember provides more than

one-half of the person’s support for 180 days) may apply for the protections of the Act in situations involving evictions, installment sales and lease contracts, mortgages and residential and motor vehicle leases. As a general rule, the Act affords its protections when the servicemember enters active military service and ends once that service is over or the servicemember dies during active military service. While an exhaustive list of the protections afforded by the Act cannot be set forth in this limited space, the following list represents the significant provisions of the Act which frequently come into play. ! Default Judgments — section 521 ! Prohibition of Fines and Penalties — section 523 ! Stay of Execution of Judgments, Attachments and Garnishments — section 524

shares. As one might expect from an owner operator, Bernhard made sound capital allocation decisions that provided great returns to shareholders. He disposed of unprofitable businesses, and sold the nuclear division to a Japanese conglomerate at a handsome price. With the proceeds he paid down the company’s debt and bought back its undervalued shares. In a final, pro-shareholder action, he sold the company to CBI for a big premium, enriching shareholders such as himself and our fund, in the process. Unfortunately, the vast majority of companies are not run by owner operators. More common are companies like Jakks Pacific, a large toy manufacturer. In the fall of 2009, Jakks’ share price had fallen so low you could buy the business for less than half our view of its intrinsic value. On top of this, Jakks had a mountain of cash that could

ADVERTISER FOCUS: KOONSFULLER, P.C.

Who’s Looking at Whom in Custody Cases?

In any custody case in Texas, the court can order what is termed a “social study.” A “social study” is an evaluation of the parties seeking custody, the child and other people with knowledge of the child and/or the parties. The current trend is toward the term “child custody evaluation,” which is the same as a social study. The social study evaluator will evaluate all the information and make a recommendation regarding custody. If the social study is ordered by the court, the social study evaluator is the court’s expert and is not working for the parties. The court will order which parties seeking custody will pay for the social study and oftentimes the cost is split. Most social study evaluations can take anywhere from 3 to 12+ months to complete. The evaluator will use the following tools to conduct the study: • Interviews with child, parties (separately), family members and others with knowledge of the parties and/or the child • Questionnaires – provided to the parties • Home Visits – to observe living conditions and to determine appropriateness of the home • Collateral Interviews – references and other professionals involved with the family • Document reviews – relevant documents related to the parents, children or other involved individuals such as school records and medical records

• Research into the parties’ past

If the evaluator is qualified to do psychological testing, the evaluator may do such testing as part of their study. This can raise the cost of the social study, but some evaluators will not do the study without such testing. If the evaluator is not qualified to do psychological testing, they may recommend that such testing be done before the social study is complete so they can include the findings in their written report. When all the information from interviews, questionnaires and other information is complete it is all consolidated into a written report. This written report is called the social study. It is prepared by the evaluator and filed with the court. Social studies can be helpful to the court even though the evaluator has spent limited time with the parties and

the children. It is difficult for the party who is not recommended for custody to swallow the recommendation in light of the brief connection to the family. Texas courts are not bound by social study recommendations, but they can be very persuasive evidence for the court. If the custody fight takes place in front of the judge, the social study report is part of the court’s record and the judge can read and consider everything in it. If the custody fight takes place in front of a jury, that’s a different story. Interestingly, in Texas and Georgia, citizens have the right to ask for a jury on the issue of custody. If the custody case is tried to the jury, the social study report is not part of the record and evidence from the social study is much more complicated to get before the jury. Another important professional in cus-

tody cases is the parenting coordinator or parenting facilitator. Parenting coordinators are not allowed to testify and parenting facilitators are allowed to testify. These professionals are often appointed during a custody case, but they can also be appointed by the court in the final custody order. If so, the parties must seek the services of the parenting coordinator or parenting facilitator before bringing their issue to court. The duties of the parenting coordinator and parenting facilitator are to aid the parties in: • identifying disputed issues • reducing misunderstandings • clarifying priorities • exploring possibilities for problem solving • developing methods of collaboration in parenting • reaching agreements about parenting issues • obtaining training regarding problem solving, conflict management, and parenting skills • settling disputes regarding parenting issues The best approach to any custody fight is to avoid one if at all possible. Most family law attorneys will try settlement conferences and even mediation before going to court. However, if a custody fight is inevitable, the parties need to expect that there will be one or more professionals evaluating their fitness for custody, as well as a judge or jury.

Interested parties may also want to check out the Military Sentinel website established by the Department of Defense and the Federal Trade Commission at http://www.ftc. gov/sentinel/military/ which advises servicemembers and their families on consumer protections afforded military personnel. Creditors may check the status of a debtor’s military status through the official SCRA website at https://www.dmdc.osd. mil/appj/scra/. However, to receive accurate military status, the creditor will need to enter the debtor’s birth date and last four

digits of the debtor’s Social Security number. If there is any question whether or not a party to any of the proceedings listed above may be in active military service or has only been recently discharged from such service (in some instances up to one year after discharge), it is extremely important that the provisions of the Act be reviewed prior to bringing an action for enforcement of the creditor’s rights. In certain instances, fines or imprisonment can be imposed against a creditor who knowingly takes action against a protected service member in a manner not proscribed by the Act.

protect it from a prolonged market downturn. This “value” thesis lead us to look past the fact Jakks’ managers pay themselves fat salaries and work out of opulent offices in Malibu, Calif. They own next to nothing of their own company’s shares, even after working at the company for many years. So did Jakks’ managers behave differently than Shaw’s owner operators? You bet. Mr. Munger’s views about incentives proved right. Jakks managers made many self-serving decisions that hurt shareholders. Perversely, the company diluted shareholders when the company’s shares were undervalued,

and later did a big share buyback when the shares were overvalued – precisely the opposite of what a rational owner operator would do. Most appallingly, Jakks management and board inexcusably spurned a lucrative buyout offer from a private equity firm. No doubt, the CEO cared more about keeping his seven-figure salary and perks than about returns for shareholders. Because our fund purchased shares at deeply distressed prices, we were able to eke out a decent return from our Jakks position. But it was in spite of the company’s management, not because of it. When analyzing an investment opportunity, we need to study its assets, earning power,

and growth prospects. Buying good businesses below their intrinsic value is the key task of value investors. When those businesses are led by owner operators with skin in the game, wonderful returns often follow.

DCTA looking at A-train contract Denton County Transportation Authority board members and staffers began discussing the rail operations contract that is set to expire in a little over a year. The agency is looking at its own needs, as well as those of regional partners Dallas Area Rapid Transit and the Fort Worth Transportation Authority. Officials want to know how a new contract can benefit all the agencies and better serve customers. DCTA does not have a contract with Herzog Transit Services, which operates the Atrain. Instead, DCTA has an agreement with DART for rail service through DART’s contract with Herzog. That agreement expires in September 2015. The agreement between DCTA and DART is for roughly $10 million per year. !

Classes planned to help with sustainability The city of Denton has launched a new program to help residents learn how to live more sustainably. Kathy Jack, the city’s first sustainability coordinator, has been organizing monthly classes at the Clear Creek Natural Heritage Center since April. The classes help give interested residents the information and skills to meet that goal, she said. So far, the classes have tackled backyard chickens, organic gardening and rainwater harvesting.

TWU Enactus team helps rescape business The Texas Woman’s University Enactus team, a group of students who help local businesses with repairs, helped Still Waters Day Spa, 324 E. McKinney St., become more energy efficient. The group, secured the $1,500 Sam’s Club Step Up for Small Business Project Partnership in November 2011 and began working with the owners to replace the toilet, light bulbs and improve the building’s exterior. The group applied for a grant and used it to purchase management software. While the internal functions of the spa began to change, the students began to work on marketing plans, a new brochure and a new website design. In late June, Still Waters held an open house for clients and the community to see the outcomes of the project, something they weren’t able to do last year.

Delay gives more time to sort out rules A new delay to the Affordable Care Act allows businesses with 50 or more employees another year to start offering medical coverage before facing fines, the Obama administration announced.

Distillation gone local By Jenna Duncan | Photography by David Minton

Quentin Witherspoon runs Witherspoon’s, a distillery in Lewisville that produces rum and blended whiskey.

very Thursday afternoon at 4 p.m., Quentin D. Witherspoon opens the loading dock of his 5,000-square-foot distillery in Lewisville, and begins to make homemade ice cream.

For three hours, he and his father welcome customers from their rocking chairs and serve them ice cream instead of the bourbon and rum that’s crafted inside the space to show people that quality liquor can be made

locally by people they know. Witherspoon’s Distillery, founded in 2010, is one of eight distilleries in the state manufacturing spirits on site, according to the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission’s online permit sys-

tem. There are 34 “operating and active” sites where at least some part of the process takes place, and 56 total companies registered but not necessarily actively manufacturing liquor. Between June 2008 and June 2012, the number of Texas distilleries grew by 400 percent, the TABC reported in its fall 2012 newsletter.

The commission reported the increase was due to the relatively new distilleries with more than half licensed in the past two years. Glazer’s Inc. distribution represents Witherspoon’s and other companies to get products on Texas shelves. Louis Zweig, senior vice president of marketing and strategy for the company, said Glazer’s, too, has noticed the increase in local spirits, and store owners and consumers are embracing the craft distilled spirits. “In the past few years, there has been explosive growth of local and state distilleries, and local and state developed products across all types of spirits,” Zweig said in an e-mail. “The owners and managers we’ve met with are entrepreneurial, pas-

sionate, industry-savvy and dedicated to making great products.” Other craft distilleries in Texas have noticed the uptick, and formed the Texas Distilled Spirits Association last year before the legislative session, said Paula Angerstein the organization’s secretary. Her business, Paula’s Texas Spirits, was the second in the state to receive a distilling permit, and said while she isn’t sure why the increase has occurred, she is sure the industry is in on the upswing. “I have kind of watched the industry grow, and up until recently I knew every single distiller,” she said. “It’s sort of a bigger trend — local buying, local eating, and it’s been good for us.” The local aspect is an important portion of Witherspoon’s business model, he said. The molasses he uses in the rum is from a provider two blocks away — the same man his family has purchased molasses from for the past four generations. The only part of his product not made in Texas or the United States is the label for the bourbon whiskey, which will be made in Lewisville in the coming months. Considered a sustainable

business model for liquor, the company’s product has already been selling, said Kevin O’Donovan, a manager at Fossil Creek Liquors in Lake Dallas, which has been selling Witherspoon’s Distillery products for about two months. “I think they definitely have a budding potential market,” O’Donovan said. “The company does amazing here. ... I think his product is actually going to start doing well and is going to blow up really, really soon.” In addition to the local feel of the product, Witherspoon also makes a point to be accessible, using direct marketing to connect with clients. He frequently accompanies his staff to tastings at local liquor stores and bars, buying rounds for customers. “It’s the most effective way of promoting if you don’t have

money,” Witherspoon said. “What’s effective is getting your customers one customer at a time, the old-fashioned way. “We build a really good relationship with everyone we deal with. We like to treat them like family.” One of the bars Witherspoon visits is Tierney’s Café and Tavern in Lewisville, where there has an increased interest in Texas spirits. Every Tuesday night, the happy hour special is “Texas Tuesday” where specialty cocktails made with Texas liquors are discounted and selling the local product is easy, owner Greg Tierney said. “First off, [Witherspoon’s] is easy for us to sell because it’s so local,” he said. “Just asking, ‘hey, do you want to try this product? It’s made half a mile away from here’ — people are really interested in that.”

People shopping at liquor stores are also interested in the local products, said Zweig. In many shops statewide, storeowners have started “Texas spirits” sections to promote local brands, and consumers like being able to interact with the distiller. “Our retailers seem to be genuinely interested in promoting local/state producers,” he said in an e-mail. “In many cases, the owners are working in the stores and the on-premise accounts, doing promotions and tastings, and the retailers welcome this kind of hands-on approach.” The market also has room to expand, as the local distillers are all in demand, Zweig said. “It’s hard to name a local player who is not doing well. Consumers and retailers seem to be embracing the category,” he said. The U.S. beverage alcohol industry is a major contributor to the economy, responsible for over $400 billion in total U.S. economic activity in 2010, generating nearly $90 billion in wages and over 3.9 million jobs for U.S. workers, according to the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States’ website. In 2010, distilled spirits accounted for over $120 billion in total economic activity, or 30 percent of total economic activity from all beverage alcohol, the organization said. In September, the economic

benefit may continue to expand, at least for Texas, Angerstein said. This legislative session, the Texas House and Senate passed a law allowing for destination distilleries, meaning licensed distilleries in the state can now sell their products from the distillery, as well as serve beverages. This will help introduce a new business model that means small craft distilleries may be able to bypass distributors when they first start out, avoiding a large cost and allowing for smaller, specialty batches, she said. “It’s going to really skyrocket when people realize they can have a distillery and can create a business model that doesn’t’ involve some of the bigger road blocks today,” she said.

a loyal customer base.” With this legislation, Witherspoon’s is already in the process of starting a destination distillery, looking at historic properties in the area that are larger and would help diversify the business, Witherspoon said. “So we’re in effect going to be a manufacturer, liquor store and bar all in one building now, with limitations — but those limitations are so generous that it attracted some serious investment potential to our company,” he said. He and the other founders are planning to launch new products as more of the liquor ages in special batches and they work on a spice blend for a spiced rum, and they hope to continue to expand and prove that Texas can manufacture quality spirits, Witherspoon said. “I’d love for us to be the Samuel Adams of distilled spirits in America,” he said. “It’s

City hashes out plans for central Denton The City Council agreed with a staff recommendation to eliminate the old central business district map, an area of about 261 acres that includes land and businesses along Carroll Boulevard and Elm and Locust streets. Instead, land south of the Square from about Sycamore Street, much of which lies in a floodplain, and land to the north from about Parkway, McKinney Street and Quakertown Park will be taken out of the planners’ “downtown” maps. The city’s planning director, Brian Lockley, laid out a proposed project as an example of one that would benefit from the change: new construction on a 1.25-acre lot on Hickory Street

that would include residences and retail. The council agreed with the consolidation plan but sought more information about a companion proposal in which developers might pay a fee in lieu of adding parking spaces. The Hickory Street project, for example, is partially encumbered by a floodplain and wouldn’t be able to meet the city’s current requirements to provide the amount of parking required by the rules. !

Brian Desch, Michael Ingle and Cedrich Montgomery of Mattress Cleaners Inc. in Denton. In fifteen minutes, the Mattress Cleaners equipment in the back of their truck can clean and sanitize a mattress with UV light, steam and equipment that uses anti-microbial nano technology.

Local man develops mobile mattress cleaning business Local resident Michael Ingle came up with what could be the next best thing. The idea for his new business, a mattress cleaning company, came at some point at 3 a.m. “I don’t really know how it began,” Ingle said. “I enjoy problem-solving, so I identified a problem and wanted to create a solution.” Before launching Mattress Cleaners Inc., Ingle did his research. He spent the past two years working on his prototype by contacting different firms that developed the equipment he was looking for and also working on the design. “It was like trial and error, until I got it right,” he said. His 3,500-square-foot warehouse in north Denton is filled with tools and supplies, as well as frames he needs to create what he calls a “clean sleep machine.” The end result is a business that stays mobile by using a 16-foot truck filled with technology dedi-

cated to removing dust mites, dead skin and bedbugs from mattresses. “This is something that could impact everybody on a global level,” Ingle said. “In a way, I wanted to create the perfect business model, where your target

market is everybody and your competition is nobody.” RAGS TO RICHES When Ingle was developing his idea, he also consulted one of his CLEANERS | CONTINUED ON PAGE 16

longtime teachers from Denton High School, Laurence McClendon, who teaches architecture, construction, engineering and technology. “He talked to me about this mattress cleaning concept and I helped him with some of the design problems,” McClendon said. McClendon, who has known Ingle for about 13 years, said Ingle is one of his success stories. “He came from a broken home and he has done everything on his own. He has also learned from his failures,” McClendon said. “I have been teaching for 21 years. I have about five kids that really stand out, and Michael is one of them.” Ingle was part of Denton High’s robotic team that won first prize at the state level in 2000, the year he graduated. He was also president of the engineering and technology club during his junior and senior years at Denton High. “I was part of the geeks,” he said. He also worked as an engineering intern at Boeing Co. and created a prototype for Raytheon during his early career years. In addition to owning Mattress Cleaners, he also owns Quick Set Concrete Inc., a general construction company. THE CASE FOR NANOTECHNOLOGY Nanotechnology, according to Ingle, helps eradicate fungi, bacteria, algae, staph and other types of organisms. In Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts, a study published last fall by the Royal Society of Chemistry in London, authors concluded that nanomaterials “do clearly display promise as antibiotic agents effective even against MDR [multiple drug resistant] organisms,” they said. However, the authors cautioned that further research was needed, since the potential exists for increased drug resistance. Part of his challenge, Ingle said, is continuing to educate people on the benefits of what his business has to offer. In his

research, he has found that the average mattress contains more than 100,000 dust mites, and bedbugs can live in a mattress up to six months without feeding, according to a company brochure. “It is for a good cause — we improve air quality and wellness,” Ingle said. HELPING OTHERS SEE A NEED Ingle said people’s awareness to become healthier has changed in the past 10 years. “Think about the hand sanitizer — 10 years ago no one cared about it. Everybody lived their lives without it,” he said. “Now they created a product and people feel they need it and they also know more about why they need it.” Based on their living style, Ingle said, people should have their home mattresses cleaned every six months to a year. For commercial purposes, such as at hotels or hospitals, companies should consider cleaning the mattresses every three months, he said. The mattress cleaning process takes six steps. A mattress of any size is placed inside what Ingle calls a “Clean Sleep Machine” — a truck that has equipment to sanitize a mattress using ultraviolet light, a dry steam process, a vacuum, infrared heat, ozone and antimicrobial nanotechnology. The entire process takes 15 minutes. Ingle might have started his business at the right time. Last week, pest control company Terminix released its list of cities experiencing the largest increases in bedbug activity. The Dallas-Fort Worth area came in at No. 13, according to the report. Sacramento, Calif., took the top spot with a 54 percent jump in customer calls about bedbugs compared to the same time last year, the company said in a news statement. Since launching his business earlier this month, Ingle has received calls from people around the state and in California. He also received a call from the CLEANERS | CONTINUED ON PAGE 18

folks from the ABC show Shark Tank, in which aspiring entrepreneurs sell their business ideas to a panel of potential investors. McClendon said Ingle declined that offer. FUTURE PLANS In the next five years, Ingle hopes his business will reach many people and businesses where he sees a need for his services, including hotels, senior living facilities and hospitals. In the meantime, he will continue to work with his five employees at the warehouse and office to reach out to interested customers. One of his recent corporate customers is the 69-room Comfort Suites at UNT, off Interstate 35E at McCormick Street.

“Cleaning our mattresses will create a safer environment for our guests, and it will show them that we keep our rooms cleaned at all times,” said Kevin Patel, general manager at the Denton Comfort Suites location. “Not having bedbugs or things of the sort is a big deal for our traveling customers.” Patel added that his hotel decided to use Ingle’s service because no other business offers anything like it. While Ingle continues to work on expanding his clientele, he is already working with eight people who are interested in franchising Mattress Cleaners. He is also working on finalizing his second truck. “We drive to where they need us,” Ingle said. KARINA RAMÍREZ can be reached at 940-566-6878 and via Twitter at @KarinaF Ramirez.
