Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations

U.S. Auto Parts Network, Inc. (including its subsidiaries) is a distributor of aftermarket auto parts and accessories and was established in 1995. The Company entered the e-commerce sector by launching its first website in 2000 and currently derives the majority of its revenues from online sales channels. The Company sells its products to individual consumers through a network of websites and online marketplaces. Our flagship websites are located at www.autopartswarehouse.com , www.jcwhitney.com , www.AutoMD.com and our corporate website is located at www.usautoparts.net . References to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to U.S. Auto Parts Network, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The Company’s products consist of body parts, engine parts, performance parts and accessories. The body parts category is primarily comprised of parts for the exterior of an automobile. Our parts in this category are typically replacement parts for original body parts that have been damaged as a result of a collision or through general wear and tear. The majority of these products are sold through our websites. In addition, we sell an extensive line of mirror products, including our own private-label brand called Kool-Vue™, which are marketed and sold as aftermarket replacement parts and as upgrades to existing parts. The engine parts category is comprised of engine components and other mechanical and electrical parts, which are often referred to as hard parts. These parts serve as replacement parts for existing engine parts and are generally used by professionals and do-it-yourselfers for engine and mechanical maintenance and repair. We offer performance versions of many parts sold in each of the above categories. Performance parts and accessories generally consist of parts that enhance the performance of the automobile, upgrade existing functionality of a specific part or improve the physical appearance or comfort of the automobile.

The Company is a Delaware C corporation and is headquartered in Carson, California. The Company has employees located in the United States of America (or the “United States”), as well as in the Philippines.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Form 10-Q and Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company as of March 29, 2014 and the consolidated results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, and cash flows for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Company’s results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the entire fiscal year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2013, which was filed with the SEC on March 12, 2014. We refer to our fiscal year ending January 3, 2015 as fiscal year 2014 and our fiscal year ended December 28, 2013 as fiscal year 2013.

During the first quarter of 2014, the Company had net income of $201 compared to a net loss of $3,343 during the first quarter of 2013. Additionally, revenues increased to $68,028 in the first quarter of 2014 from $65,405 in the first quarter of 2013. The profitable first quarter was preceded by losses in both fiscal year 2013 and 2012 as the Company incurred net losses of $15,634 and $35,978, respectively. Based on our current operating plan, we expect to finish fiscal year 2014 with a substantially reduced net loss compared to the net loss for fiscal year 2013. As a result, we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, investments, cash flows from operations and available debt financing will be sufficient to finance our operational cash needs through at least the next twelve months. Should our results not meet our current operating plan and should revenues decline in 2014, it could negatively impact our liquidity as we may not be able to provide positive cash flows from operations in order to meet our working capital requirements. We may need to borrow additional funds from our credit facility, which under certain circumstances may not be available, sell additional assets or seek additional equity or debt financing in the future. There can be no assurance that we would be able to raise such additional financing or engage in such asset sales on acceptable terms, or at all. If revenues were to decline during fiscal 2014 and the net loss continues for longer than we expect because our strategies to return to sustained positive sales growth and profitability are not successful, and if we are not able to raise adequate additional financing or proceeds from additional asset sales to continue to fund our ongoing operations, we will need to defer, reduce or eliminate significant planned expenditures, restructure or significantly curtail our operations.

Fiscal Periods

The Company’s fiscal year is based on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31. Quarterly periods are based on the thirteen weeks ending on the Saturday closest to the calendar quarter end date. Our fiscal year 2014 will be 53 weeks ending January 3, 2015.

Table of Contents

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, those related to revenue recognition, uncollectible receivables, valuation of inventory, valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, valuation of intangible assets and other long-lived assets, recoverability of software development costs, contingencies and share-based compensation expense that results from estimated grant date fair values and vesting of issued equity awards based upon certain performance targets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Statement of Cash Flows

The net change in the Company’s book overdraft is presented net of accounts payable in the operating activity of the consolidated statement of cash flows. The book overdraft represents a credit balance in the Company’s general ledger but the Company has a positive bank account balance.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all money market funds and short-term investments purchased with original maturities of ninety days or less to be cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial instruments that are not measured at fair value include accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt. Refer to “Note 3 – Fair Value Measurements” for additional fair value information. The Company’s revolving loan payable (see “Note 6 –Borrowings”) is categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, as the estimated value would be based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates available to the Company for debt of the same or similar terms. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value at March 29, 2014 and December 28, 2013 due to their short-term maturities. Marketable securities and investments are carried at fair value, as discussed below. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank loans with similar terms and average maturities, the fair value of our revolving loan payable, classified as current liability in our consolidated balance sheet, approximates its carrying amount because the interest rate is variable.

Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk

Accounts receivable are stated net of allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined primarily on the basis of past collection experience and general economic conditions. The Company determines terms and conditions for its customers primarily based on the volume purchased by the customer, customer creditworthiness and past transaction history.

Concentrations of credit risk are limited to the customer base to which the Company’s products are sold. The Company does not believe significant concentrations of credit risk exist.

Marketable Securities and Investments

Marketable securities and investments were comprised of closed-end funds primarily invested in mutual funds. Mutual funds are classified as short-term investments available-for-sale and recorded at fair market value, based on quoted prices of identical assets that are trading in active markets as of the end of the period for which the values are determined.

Other-Than-Temporary Impairment

All of the Company’s marketable securities and investments are subject to a periodic impairment review. The Company recognizes an impairment charge when a decline in the fair value of its investments below the cost basis is judged to be other-than-temporary. The Company considers various factors in determining whether to recognize an impairment charge, including the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than the Company’s cost basis, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the investee, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in the market value. No other-than-temporary impairment charges were recorded on any investments during the thirteen week periods ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013.

Inventory

Inventories consist of finished goods available-for-sale and are stated at the lower of cost or market value, determined using the first-in first-out (“FIFO”) method. The Company purchases inventory from suppliers both domestically and internationally, and routinely enters into

8

Table of Contents

supply agreements with U.S.–based suppliers and its primary drop-ship vendors. The Company believes that its products are generally available from more than one supplier and seeks to maintain multiple sources for its products, both internationally and domestically. The Company primarily purchases products in bulk quantities to take advantage of quantity discounts and to ensure inventory availability. Inventory is reported at the lower of cost or market, adjusted for slow moving, obsolete or scrap product. Inventory at March 29, 2014 and December 28, 2013 was $36,613 and $36,986, respectively, which included items in-transit to our warehouses, in the amount of $7,216 and $6,750, respectively.

Website and Software Development Costs

The Company capitalizes certain costs associated with website and software developed for internal use according to ASC 350-50 Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Website Development Costs and ASC 350-40 Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software, when both the preliminary project design and testing stage are completed and management has authorized further funding for the project, which it deems probable of completion and to be used for the function intended. Capitalized costs include amounts directly related to website and software development such as payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with, and who devote time to, the internal-use software project. Capitalization of such costs ceases when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. These amounts are amortized on a straight-line basis over two to three years once the software is placed into service.

Long-Lived Assets and Intangibles Subject to Amortization

The Company accounts for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets, including intangibles subject to amortization, in accordance with ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”) . Management assesses potential impairments whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. An impairment loss will result when the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows estimated to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset or asset group. Impairment losses will be recognized in operating results to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the discounted future cash flows estimated to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset or asset group. The Company continually uses judgment when applying these impairment rules to determine the timing of the impairment tests, undiscounted cash flows used to assess impairments, and the fair value of a potentially impaired asset or asset group. The reasonableness of our judgments could significantly affect the carrying value of our long-lived assets. The Company has not recognized any impairment losses on property and equipment or intangible assets subject to amortization since the second quarter of 2013. No such charges were recorded during the first quarter of fiscal year 2013.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from product sales and shipping revenues, net of promotional discounts and return allowances, when the following five revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, both title and risk of loss or damage have transferred, delivery has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company retains the risk of loss or damage during transit, therefore, revenue from product sales is recognized at the delivery date to customer, not upon shipment. Return allowances, which reduce product revenue by the Company’s best estimate of expected product returns, are estimated using historical experience.

Revenue from sales of advertising is recorded when performance requirements of the related advertising program agreement are met.

The Company evaluates the criteria of ASC 605-45 Revenue Recognition Principal Agent Considerations in determining whether it is appropriate to record the gross amount of product sales and related costs or the net amount earned as commissions. Generally, when the Company is the primary party obligated in a transaction, the Company is subject to inventory risk, has latitude in establishing prices and selecting suppliers, or has several but not all of these indicators, revenue is recorded at gross.

Payments received prior to the delivery of goods to customers are recorded as deferred revenue.

The Company periodically provides incentive offers to its customers to encourage purchases. Such offers include current discount offers, such as percentage discounts off current purchases and other similar offers. Current discount offers, when accepted by the Company’s customers, are treated as a reduction to the purchase price of the related transaction.

Sales discounts are recorded in the period in which the related sale is recognized. Sales return allowances are estimated based on historical amounts and are recorded upon recognizing the related sales. Credits are issued to customers for returned products.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales consists of the direct costs associated with procuring parts from suppliers and delivering products to customers. These costs include direct product costs, outbound freight and shipping costs, warehouse supplies and warranty costs, partially offset by purchase discounts and cooperative advertising. Depreciation and amortization expenses are excluded from cost of sales and included in marketing, general and administrative and fulfillment expenses as noted below.

Warranty Costs

The Company or the vendors supplying its products provide the Company’s customers limited warranties on certain products that range from 30 days to lifetime. In most cases, the Company’s vendors are the party primarily responsible for warranty claims. Standard product warranties sold separately by the Company are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized ratably over the life of the warranty, ranging from one to five years. The Company also offers extended warranties that are imbedded in the price of selected private label products we sell. The product brands that include the extended warranty coverage are offered at three different service levels: (a) a five year unlimited product replacement, (b) a five year one-time product replacement, and (c) a three year one-time product replacement. Warranty costs relating to merchandise sold under warranty not covered by vendors are estimated and recorded as warranty obligations at the time of sale based on each product’s historical return rate and historical warranty cost. The standard and extended warranty obligations are recorded as warranty liabilities and included in other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, the activity in our aggregate warranty liabilities was as follows (in thousands):

Marketing Expense

Marketing costs, including advertising, are expensed as incurred. The majority of advertising expense is paid to internet search engine service providers and internet commerce facilitators. For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, the Company recognized advertising costs of $4,390 and $4,337, respectively. Marketing costs also include depreciation and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense.

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expense consists primarily of administrative payroll and related expenses, merchant processing fees, legal and professional fees and other administrative costs. General and administrative expense also includes depreciation and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense.

Fulfillment Expense

Fulfillment expense consists primarily of payroll and related costs associated with warehouse employees and the Company’s purchasing group, facilities rent, building maintenance, depreciation and other costs associated with inventory management and wholesale operations. Fulfillment expense also includes share-based compensation expense.

Technology Expense

Technology expense consists primarily of payroll and related expenses of our information technology personnel, the cost of hosting the Company’s servers, communications expenses and Internet connectivity costs, computer support and software development amortization expense. Technology expense also includes share-based compensation expense.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). All share-based payment awards to employees are recognized as share-based compensation expense in the financial statements based on their respective grant date fair values, and are recognized within the statement of comprehensive income or loss as marketing, general and administrative, fulfillment or technology expense, based on employee departmental classifications. Under this standard, compensation expense for both time-based and performance-based restricted stock units is based on the closing stock price of our common shares on the date of grant, and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Compensation expense for performance-based awards is measured based on the amount of shares ultimately expected to vest, estimated at each reporting date based on management’s expectations regarding the relevant performance criteria. Compensation expense for stock options is based on the fair value estimated on the date of grant using an option pricing model that meets certain requirements, and is recognized over the vesting period of three to four years. The Company currently uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards for such stock options, which is affected by the Company’s stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends.

10

Table of Contents

The Company incorporates its own historical volatility into the grant-date fair value calculations for the stock options. The expected term of an award is based on combining historical exercise data with expected weighted time outstanding. Expected weighted time outstanding is calculated by assuming the settlement of outstanding awards is at the midpoint between the remaining weighted average vesting date and the expiration date. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on observed interest rates appropriate for the expected life of awards. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s expectation of paying no dividends on its common stock. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures significantly differ from those estimates. The Company considers many factors when estimating expected forfeitures, including employee class, economic environment, and historical experience.

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of services from non-employee directors in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with ASC 505-50 Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earlier of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services. Equity instruments awarded to non-employees are periodically re-measured as the underlying awards vest unless the instruments are fully vested, immediately exercisable and non-forfeitable on the date of grant.

The Company accounts for modifications to its share-based payment awards in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. Incremental compensation cost is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the modified award over the fair value of the original award immediately before its terms are modified, measured based on the share price and other pertinent factors at that date, and is recognized as compensation cost on the date of modification (for vested awards) or over the remaining service (vesting) period (for unvested awards). Any unrecognized compensation cost remaining from the original award is recognized over the vesting period of the modified award.

Other Income, net

Other income, net consists of miscellaneous income or expense such as gains/losses from disposition of assets, and interest income comprised primarily of interest income on investments.

Interest Expense

Interest expense consists primarily of interest expense on our outstanding loan balance, deferred financing cost amortization, and capital lease interest.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amount of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. When appropriate, a valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets, which include tax credits and loss carry forwards, to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards, taxable income in prior carryback years, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations.

The Company utilizes a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating our tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately forecast actual outcomes. As of March 29, 2014, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits, interest or penalties related to federal and state income tax matters. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties as income tax expense.

Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities

We present taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities on a net basis in accordance with the guidance on ASC 605-45-50-3 Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities.

Leases

The Company analyzes lease agreements for operating versus capital lease treatment in accordance with ASC 840 Leases. Rent expense for leases designated as operating lease is expensed on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. For capital leases, the present value of future minimum lease payments at the inception of the lease is reflected as a capital lease asset and a capital lease payable in the consolidated balance sheets. Amounts due within one year are classified as current liabilities and the remaining balance as non-current liabilities.

Foreign Currency Translation

For each of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, the functional currency is its local currency. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates, and revenues and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars using average exchange rates. The effects of the foreign currency translation adjustments are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Comprehensive Income

The Company reports comprehensive income or loss in accordance with ASC 220 Comprehensive Income. Accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, includes foreign currency translation adjustments related to the Company’s foreign operations, and unrealized holding gains and losses from available-for-sale marketable securities and investments. The Company presents the components of net income or loss and other comprehensive income or loss, in its consolidated statements of comprehensive operations.

Segment Data

The Company operates in two reportable segments. The criteria the Company uses to identify its operating segments are primarily the nature of the products the Company sells and the consolidated operating results that are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to assess performance and make operating decisions. The two reporting units we identified are Base USAP, which is the core auto parts business, and AutoMD, an online automotive repair source, in accordance with ASC 280 Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”).

Note 2 – Investments

As of March 29, 2014 the Company held the following securities and investments, recorded at fair value (in thousands):

As of December 28, 2013, the Company held the following securities and investments, recorded at fair value (in thousands):

Proceeds from the sale of available-for-sale securities are disclosed in the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flow. For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014, the Company sold $8 of available-for-sale securities. For the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2013, there were no sales of available-for-sale securities.

Note 3 – Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Provisions of ASC 820 – Fair Value Measurement establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:

12

Table of Contents

We measure our financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis using the following valuation techniques:

(a) Market Approach – uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

(b) Income Approach – uses valuation techniques to convert future estimated cash flows to a single present amount based on current market expectations about those future amounts, using present value techniques.

Financial Assets Valued on a Recurring Basis

As of March 29, 2014 and December 28, 2013, the Company held certain assets that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These included the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents and investments. The following table represents our fair value hierarchy and the valuation techniques used for financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, there were no transfers into or out of Level 1 and Level 2 assets.

Non-Financial Assets Valued on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company’s long-lived assets, including intangible assets subject to amortization, are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets are measured at cost but are written-down to fair value, if necessary, as a result of impairment. As of March 29, 2014, the Company’s long-lived assets did not indicate a potential impairment under the provisions of ASC 360, as such, they were not measured at fair value. If such non-financial assets had been measured at fair value, they would be categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, as the Company would be required to develop its own assumptions and analysis to determine if such non-financial assets were impaired.

Note 4 – Property and Equipment, Net

The Company’s fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, amortization and impairment. Depreciation and amortization expense are provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable and amortizable assets to operations over their estimated service lives. Depreciation and amortization expense for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 was $2,368 and $3,638, respectively. For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014, the balance included amortization expense of $436 for capital leased assets related to the LaSalle, Illinois facility (see sale-leaseback discussion below for details). No similar balance was recorded for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2013. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets retired or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts and the resultant gain or loss is reflected in earnings.

Table of Contents

The Company accounts for the impairment of property and equipment in accordance with ASC 360 – Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360’). During the second quarter of 2013, the Company identified adverse events related to the Company’s overall financial performance, including accelerating downward trend in the Company’s revenues and gross margin, which indicated that the carrying amount of certain property and equipment may not be recoverable. Given the indicators of impairment, the Company utilized the royalty savings method rather than cost method in determining the fair values, using a discount rate of 14.5% and royalty rate of 1.0%. Based on its analysis, the Company recognized an impairment loss on internally developed software of $4,832. Subsequent to the second quarter of 2013, there have not been events or circumstances that have resulted in an assessment by management of any indicators of further impairment. However, any future decline in the fair value of an asset group could result in future impairments.

Property and equipment consisted of the following at March 29, 2014 and December 28, 2013 (in thousands):

On April 17, 2013, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Whitney Automotive Group, Inc. (“WAG”) closed the sale of its facility in LaSalle, Illinois for $9,750 pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement dated April 17, 2013 between WAG and STORE Capital Acquisitions, LLC. The Company used the net proceeds of $9,507 (net of $77 in legal fees) from this sale to reduce its revolving loan payable. Under the terms of the purchase and sale agreement, simultaneously with the execution of the purchase and sale agreement and the closing of the sale of the property, the Company entered into a lease agreement with STORE Master Funding III, LLC (“STORE”) whereby we leased back the property for our continued use as an office, retail and warehouse facility for storage, sale and distribution of automotive parts, accessories and related items for 20 years commencing upon the execution of the lease and terminating on April 30, 2033. The related assets represent the amounts included in land and building in the summary above. The Company’s initial base annual rent is $853 for the first year (“Base Rent Amount”), after which the rental amount will increase annually on May 1 by the lesser of 1.5% or 1.25 times the change in the Consumer Price Index as published by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, except that in no event will the adjusted annual rental amount fall below the Base Rent Amount. We were not required to pay any security deposit. Under the terms of the lease, we are required to pay all taxes associated with the lease, pay for any required maintenance on the property, maintain certain levels of insurance and indemnify STORE for losses incurred that are related to our use or occupancy of the property. The lease was accounted for as a capital lease and the $376 excess of the net proceeds over the net carrying amount of the property is amortized in interest expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term of 20 years. As of March 29, 2014, the gross carrying value, the accumulated depreciation and the net carrying value of all capital leased assets included in property and equipment were $9,771, $646 and $9,125, respectively.

Construction in process primarily relates to the Company’s internally developed software (refer to caption “Website and Software Development Costs” in “Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations”). Certain of the Company’s net property and equipment were located in the Philippines as of March 29, 2014 and December 28, 2013, in the amount of $408 and $508, respectively.

Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes, at rates based on the following estimated useful lives:

Note 5 – Definite-Lived Intangibles

Intangible assets consisted of the following at March 29, 2014 and December 28, 2013 (in thousands):

Intangibles subject to amortization are expensed on a straight-line basis. Amortization expense relating to intangible assets for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 was $84, and $106, respectively.

The following table summarizes the future estimated annual amortization expense for these assets over the next five years (in thousands):

Note 6 – Borrowings

In April 2012, the Company, certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”), as sole lender and administrative agent entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving commitment in an aggregate principal amount of up to $40,000 (the “Credit Facility”), which is subject to a borrowing base derived from certain receivables, inventory and property and equipment. In August 2013, the Company, certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and JPMorgan entered into a third amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Third Amended Credit Agreement”) amending the Credit Agreement to, among other things, reduce the revolving commitment to $20,000 and, upon satisfaction of certain conditions, provide that the Company has the right to increase the revolving commitment up to $40,000. The Credit Facility matures on April 26, 2017. The Company used the proceeds of the loans borrowed on the closing date to repay in full its previous credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank. At March 29, 2014, our outstanding revolving loan balance was $750. The customary events of default under the Credit Facility (discussed below) include certain subjective acceleration clauses, which management has determined the likelihood of such acceleration is more than remote, considering the recurring losses experienced by the Company, therefore a current classification of our revolving loan payable was required.

Loans drawn under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a per annum rate equal to either (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.50%, or (b) an “alternate base rate” minus an applicable margin of 0.50%. Each applicable margin as set forth in the prior sentence is subject to increase or decrease by 0.25% per annum based upon the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio. At March 29,

Table of Contents

2014, the Company’s LIBOR based interest rate was 1.94% (on $0 principal) and the Company’s prime based rate was 3.0% (on $750 principal). A commitment fee, based upon undrawn availability under the Credit Facility bearing interest at a rate of 0.20% per annum, is payable monthly. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, cash receipts are deposited into a lock-box, which are at the Company’s discretion unless the “cash dominion period” is in effect, during which cash receipts will be used to reduce amounts owing under the Credit Agreement. The cash dominion period is triggered in an event of default or if excess availability is less than $6,000, as defined. The dominion period will continue until, during the preceding 60 consecutive days, no event of default existed and, excess availability has to be greater than $7,000 at all times. The Company’s excess availability was $15,533 at March 29, 2014. As of the date hereof, the cash dominion period has not been in effect; accordingly no principal payments are currently due.

Certain of the Company’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries are co-borrowers (together with the Company, the “Borrowers”) under the Credit Agreement, and certain other wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries are guarantors (the “Guarantors” and, together with the Borrowers, the “Loan Parties”) under the Credit Agreement. The Borrowers and the Guarantors are jointly and severally liable for the Borrowers’ obligations under the Credit Agreement. The Loan Parties’ obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured, subject to customary permitted liens and certain exclusions, by a perfected security interest in (a) all tangible and intangible assets and (b) all of the capital stock owned by the Loan Parties (limited, in the case of foreign subsidiaries, to 65% of the capital stock of such foreign subsidiaries). The Borrowers may voluntarily prepay the loans at any time without payment of a premium. The Borrowers are required to make mandatory prepayments of the loans (without payment of a premium) with net cash proceeds received upon the occurrence of certain “prepayment events,” which include certain sales or other dispositions of collateral, certain casualty or condemnation events, certain equity issuances or capital contributions, and the incurrence of certain debt.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, investments, dispositions, prepayment of other indebtedness, mergers, and dividends and other distributions. Concurrent with the Company’s issuance of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”), the Company, certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and JPMorgan entered into a second amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Second Amended Credit Agreement”) amending the Credit Agreement to, among other things, allow the Company to pay cash dividends on the Series A Preferred in an aggregate amount of up to $400 per year and pay cash in lieu of issuing fractional shares upon conversion of or in payment of dividends on the Series A Preferred, each subject to certain restrictions set forth in the Second Amended Credit Agreement but without having to satisfy certain other conditions that would have otherwise applied to the payment of such dividends.

Under the Credit Agreement, the Company is not required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, unless excess availability is less than $6,000, as defined, whereby a ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 will be required. Events of default under the Credit Agreement include: failure to timely make payments due under the Credit Agreement; material misrepresentations or misstatements under the Credit Agreement and other related agreements; failure to comply with covenants under the Credit Agreement and other related agreements; certain defaults in respect of other material indebtedness; insolvency or other related events; certain defaulted judgments; certain ERISA-related events; certain security interests or liens under the loan documents cease to be, or are challenged by the Company or any of its subsidiaries as not being, in full force and effect; any loan document or any material provision of the same ceases to be in full force and effect; and certain criminal indictments or convictions of any Loan Party. As of March 29, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement. However, if our excess availability is reduced to less than $6,000, we will not comply with the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio.

As of March 29, 2014, the Company had total capital leases payable of $9,708. The present value of the net minimum payments on capital leases as of March 29, 2014 was as follows:

Note 7 – Stockholders’ Equity and Share-Based Compensation

Common Stock

The Company has 100,000,000 shares of common stock authorized. We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. The following issuances of common stock were made during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014:

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

In March 2013, the Company authorized the issuance of 4,150 shares of Series A Preferred and entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell up to an aggregate of 4,150 shares of our Series A Preferred, $0.001 par value per share at a purchase price per share of $1.45 for aggregate proceeds to the Company of approximately $6,017. In March 2013, we sold 4,000 shares of Series A Preferred for aggregate proceeds of $5,800. In April 2013, we sold the remaining 150 shares of Series A Preferred for an aggregate proceeds of $217. The Company incurred issuance costs of approximately $847 and used the net proceeds from the sale of the Series A Preferred to reduce its revolving loan payable.

Each share of Series A Preferred is convertible into shares of our common stock at the initial conversion price of $1.45 per share or one share of common stock for each share of Series A Preferred. The conversion price will be adjusted for certain non-price based events, such as dividends and distributions on the common stock, stock splits, combinations, recapitalizations, reclassifications, mergers, or consolidations. If not previously converted by the holder, the Series A Preferred will automatically convert to common stock if the volume weighted average price for the Common Stock for any 30 consecutive trading days is equal to or exceeds $4.35 per share. The shares that would be issued if the contingently convertible Series A Preferred were converted are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share due to the Company’s net income position for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 (refer to “Note 8 – Net Loss Per Share” for anti-dilutive securities).

In the event of any liquidation event, which includes changes of control of the Company and sales or other dispositions by the Company of more than 50% of its assets, the Series A Preferred is entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution to the common stock, an amount per share equal to $1.45 per share of Series A Preferred, plus all then accrued but unpaid dividends on such Series A Preferred. Following this distribution, if assets or surplus funds remain, the holders of the common stock shall share ratably in all remaining assets of the Company, based on the number of shares of common stock then outstanding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, in connection with any liquidation event, a holder of Series A Preferred would receive an amount greater than $1.45 per share of Series A Preferred by converting such shares held by such holder into shares of common stock, then such holder shall be treated as though such holder had converted such shares of Series A Preferred into shares of common stock immediately prior to such liquidation event, whether or not such holder had elected to so convert.

Dividends on the Series A Preferred are payable quarterly at a rate of $0.058 per share per annum in cash, in shares of common stock or in any combination of cash and common stock as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. Certain conditions are required to be satisfied in order for the Company to pay dividends on the Series A Preferred in shares of common stock, including (i) the common stock being registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or (g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (ii) the common stock being issued having been approved for listing on a trading market and (iii) the common stock being issued either being covered by an effective registration statement or being freely tradable without restriction under Rule 144 (subject to certain exceptions). The Series A Preferred shall each be entitled to one vote per share for each share of common stock issuable upon conversion thereof (excluding from any such calculation any dividends accrued on such shares) and shall vote together with the holders of common stock as a single class on any matter on which the holders of common stock are entitled to vote. In addition, the Company must obtain the consent of holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding Series A Preferred in connection with (a) any amendment, alteration or repeal of any provision of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Company as to adversely affect the preferences, rights or voting power of the Series A Preferred, or (b) the creation, authorization or issuance of any additional Series A Preferred or any other class or series of capital stock of the Company ranking senior to or on parity with the Series A Preferred or any security convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for Series A Preferred or any other class or series of capital stock of the Company ranking senior to or on parity with the Series A Preferred. Concurrent with the Company’s issuance of Series A Preferred, the Company, certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and JPMorgan entered into a Second Amended Credit Agreement to allow the Company to pay cash dividends on the Series A Preferred in an aggregate amount of up to $400 per year and pay cash in lieu of issuing fractional shares upon conversion of or in payment of dividends on the Series A Preferred (refer to “Note 6 – Borrowings” of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details). As of March 29, 2014, we had recorded a common stock dividend distributable on the Series A Preferred of $59. The Company issued 19 shares of common stock in payment of the quarterly dividend on the Series A Preferred on the dividend payment date of March 31, 2014. As of December 28, 2013, we had recorded a common stock dividend distributable on the Series A Preferred of $60. The Company issued 24 shares of common stock in payment of the quarterly dividend on the Series A Preferred on the dividend payment date of December 31, 2013. Refer to “Note 6 – Borrowings” of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details.

Share-Based Compensation Plan Information

The Company adopted the 2007 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2007 Omnibus Plan”) in January 2007, which became effective on February 8, 2007, the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with the Company’s initial public offering. Under the 2007 Omnibus Plan, the Company was previously authorized to issue 2,400 shares of common stock, under various instruments to eligible employees and non-employees of the Company, plus an automatic annual increase on the first day of each of the Company’s fiscal years beginning on January 1, 2008 and ending on January 1, 2017 equal to (i) the lesser of (A) 1,500 shares of common stock or (B) five percent (5%) of the number of shares of common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year or (ii) such lesser number of shares of common stock as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. Options granted under the 2007 Omnibus Plan generally expire no later than ten years from the date of grant and generally vest over a period of four years. The exercise price of all option grants must be equal to 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant. The 2007 Omnibus Plan also provides for automatic grant of options to purchase

common stock and common stock awards to non-employee directors. As of March 29, 2014, 1,357 shares were available for future grants under the 2007 Omnibus Plan. Since the RSUs were granted under the 2007 Omnibus Plan, such RSUs granted have been deducted from the overall pool of equity instruments available under the 2007 Omnibus Plan. For further detail, see Restricted Stock Unit discussion below.

The Company adopted the 2007 New Employee Incentive Plan (the “2007 New Employee Plan”) in October 2007. Under the 2007 New Employee Plan, the Company is authorized to issue 2,000 shares of common stock under various instruments solely to new employees. Options granted under the 2007 New Employee Plan generally expire no later than ten years from the date of grant and generally vest over a period of four years. The exercise price of all option grants must not be less than 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant. As of March 29, 2014, 1,552 shares were available for future grants under the 2007 New Employee Plan.

The Company adopted the U.S. Auto Parts Network, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”) in March 2006. All stock options to purchase common stock granted to employees in 2006 were granted under the 2006 Plan and had exercise prices equal to the fair value of the underlying stock, as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors on the applicable option grant date. After fiscal year 2008, no shares have been available for future grants under the 2006 Plan.

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activity for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014, and details regarding the options outstanding and exercisable at March 29, 2014:

The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the quarter ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 was $1.19 and $0.90, respectively. The intrinsic value of stock options at the date of the exercise is the difference between the fair value of the stock at the date of exercise and the exercise price. During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, the total intrinsic value of the exercised options was $14 and $4, respectively. The Company had $1,961 of unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to stock options outstanding as of March 29, 2014, which expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.4 years.

Restricted Stock Units

On February 14, 2014, we granted 699 restricted stock units ( RSUs) to certain of our employees. The RSUs were granted under the 2007 Omnibus Plan, and reduced the pool of equity instruments available under that plan.

Of the 699 RSU’s, 422 are time-based, which vest upon the completion of a pre-defined period of employment, ranging from one- to- two years. The remaining 277 RSUs are performance-based RSUs, the number of which that vest, if any, will be determined upon the achievement of certain pre-defined financial goals in fiscal year 2014. All awards are subject to the employee’s continued employment through applicable vesting dates. Some awards granted to certain executives may vest on an accelerated basis in part or in full upon the occurrence of certain events. The RSUs are accounted for as equity awards and are measured at fair value based upon the grant date price of our common stock. The closing price of our common stock on the date of this grant was $2.03 per share. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of one-to-two years. Compensation expense for performance-based awards is measured based on the amount of shares ultimately expected to vest, estimated at each reporting date based on management’s expectations regarding the relevant performance criteria.

Table of Contents

For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014, we recorded compensation expense of $157. As of March 29, 2014, there was unrecognized compensation expense of $1,193 related to unvested RSUs based on awards that are expected to vest. The unrecognized compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.1 years.

Stock Option Exchange Program

In July 2013, the Company’s stockholders approved a proposed stock option exchange program for the exchange of certain outstanding stock options held by eligible employees for new options to purchase fewer shares. In August 2013, the Company commenced an offering to eligible employees to voluntarily exchange certain vested and unvested stock options with exercise prices above $4.00 per share at an exchange ratio of 3.5 to 1 to be granted following the expiration of the tender offer with exercise prices equal to the fair market value of one share of the Company’s common stock on the day the new options were issued. Stock options to purchase an aggregate of 3,733 shares with exercise prices ranging from $4.01 to $11.68 were eligible for tender at the commencement of the program. The Company’s non-employee directors were not eligible to participate in the program. The terms and conditions of the new options are subject to an entirely new four year vesting schedule where 25% will vest on the first anniversary, and the remaining 75% will vest monthly over the following 36 months. All new options have a ten year contractual term. The offer period for the stock option exchange ended in September 2013.

In September 2013, the Company accepted for exchange 3,475 eligible options to purchase common stock, with a weighted average exercise price of $6.65 for 45 eligible employees, and issued 993 unvested options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $0.9866, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on that day. Using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, the Company determined that the fair value of the surrendered stock options on a grant-by-grant basis was lower than the fair value of the new stock options, as of the date of the exchange, resulting in incremental fair value of $422. The incremental fair value as a result of the stock option exchange and the remaining compensation expense associated with the surrendered stock options will be recorded as compensation expense over the four year vesting period of the new options.

The fair value of the surrendered stock options and the new stock options was estimated on the date of the exchange using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Warrants

As of March 29, 2014, warrants to purchase 50 shares of common stock were outstanding and exercisable, 30 of which have an exercise price of $2.14 per share and expire on May 5, 2016, and 20 of which have an exercise price of $8.32 per share and expire on April 27, 2017. The warrants were issued in connection with the financial advisory services provided by a consultant to the Company. All warrants fully vested in fiscal year 2012, and no warrants were exercised during the first quarter of 2014. The aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding and exercisable warrants was $25 as of March 29, 2014, which was calculated as the difference between the exercise price of underlying awards and the closing price of the Company’s common stock for warrants that were in-the-money.

Share-Based Compensation Expense

The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions for each of the periods ended:

19

Table of Contents

Share-based compensation from options, warrants, RSUs and stock awards, is included in our consolidated statements of comprehensive operations, as follows:

The share-based compensation expense is net of amounts capitalized to internally-developed software of $39 and $81 during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, respectively.

Under ASC 718, forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures significantly differ from those estimates. The Company’s estimated forfeiture rates are determined on a quarterly basis based on actual historical forfeitures experienced under our equity plans. The Company’s forfeiture rates were 16% to 34% for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013.

Note 8 – Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Net income (loss) per share has been computed in accordance with ASC 260 Earnings per Share. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share:

For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014, we excluded certain common stock warrants, Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, and stock options from the calculation of diluted income per share as they would have had an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share. As we incurred a net loss for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2013, we have not computed the diluted earnings per share, as the potentially dilutive securities would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings. The weighted-average anti-dilutive securities, which are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share, are as follows:

20

Table of Contents

Common shares issued for nominal consideration, if any, would be included in the per share calculations as if they were outstanding for all periods presented.

Note 9 – Income Taxes

As discussed in “Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations” , the Company applies the current U.S. GAAP on accounting for uncertain tax positions, which prescribe a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that has greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We consider many factors when evaluating and estimating our tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately forecast actual outcomes. As of March 29, 2014, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits, interest or penalties related to federal and state income tax matters. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties as income tax expense.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of foreign and state tax jurisdictions. The tax years 2009-2012 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject, except the Internal Revenue Service for which the tax years 2010-2012 remain open. The Company does not anticipate a significant change to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, the effective tax rate for the Company was 13.7% and (0.6)%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily as a result of the recording of valuation allowance against the pre-tax losses. The Company’s effective tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2013 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily as a result of the recording of valuation allowance against the pre-tax losses and the increase in deferred tax liabilities related to tax deductible indefinite-lived intangible assets. Prior to 2012, the Company treated earnings of the foreign subsidiaries as permanently invested in that jurisdiction. As a result, no additional income tax withholding was provided on the possible future repatriation of these earnings to the parent company in prior years. During fiscal year 2012, based on current year operating and future cash flow needs the Company decided that it could no longer represent that these funds would be indefinitely reinvested in the foreign jurisdictions but that such funds may be needed for general corporate purposes. As a result, during fiscal year 2013, the Company recorded future withholding taxes which would be due if the funds are required to be repatriated. The Company intends to continue to pursue all reasonable means to increase its investment in the foreign jurisdictions as dictated by future growth in general business activities or as allowed by the foreign jurisdictions to avoid incurring the income tax withholding expense.

Facilities Leases

The Company’s corporate headquarters are located in Carson, California. The Company’s corporate headquarters has an initial lease term of five years through October 2016, and optional renewals through January 2020. The Company also leases a warehouse in Carson, California, under a month to month agreement. The Company leases warehouse space in Chesapeake, Virginia under an agreement scheduled to expire in June 2016, renewable for an additional thirty six months through June 2019. The Company’s Philippines subsidiary leases office space under a sixty-three month agreement through May 2015, renewable for an additional sixty months through April 2020. As of the date hereof, the Company has not committed to any facilities lease renewals.

Facility rent expense for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 was $462 and $604, respectively. The Company’s facility rent expense was inclusive of amounts charged from a related party during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 of $94 each.

In April 2013, the Company entered into a sale lease-back agreement with STORE Master Funding III, LLC (“STORE”) whereby we leased back our facility located in LaSalle, Illinois for our continued use as an office, retail and warehouse facility for storage, sale and distribution of automotive parts, accessories and related items for 20 years commencing upon the execution of the lease and terminating in April 2033. The related assets for the sale lease-back land and building is represented by the amount included in leased facility in Note 4 – Property and Equipment, net above. The Company’s initial base annual rent is $853 for the first year (“Base Rent Amount”), after which the rental amount will increase annually on May 1 by the lesser of 1.5% or 1.25 times the change in the Consumer Price Index as published by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, except that in no event will the adjusted annual rental amount fall below the Base Rent Amount. We were not required to pay any security deposit. Under the terms of the lease, we are required to pay all taxes associated with the lease, pay for any required maintenance on the property, maintain certain levels of insurance and indemnify STORE for losses incurred that are related to our use or occupancy of the property. The lease was accounted for as a capital lease and the $376 excess of the net proceeds over the net carrying amount of the property is amortized in interest expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term of 20 years. As of March 29, 2014, the net carrying value of all capital leased assets included in property and equipment was $9,125.

Minimum lease commitments under non-cancelable operating leases as of March 29, 2014 are as follows:

Legal Matters

Asbestos . A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Automotive Specialty Accessories and Parts, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary WAG, are named defendants in several lawsuits involving claims for damages caused by installation of brakes during the late 1960’s and early 1970’s that contained asbestos. WAG marketed certain brakes, but did not manufacture any brakes. WAG maintains liability insurance coverage to protect its and the Company’s assets from losses arising from the litigation and coverage is provided on an occurrence rather than a claims made basis, and the Company is not expected to incur significant out-of-pocket costs in connection with this matter that would be material to its consolidated financial statements.

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of its business. As of the date hereof, the Company believes that the final disposition of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flow of the Company. The Company maintains liability insurance coverage to protect the Company’s assets from losses arising out of or involving activities associated with ongoing and normal business operations.

Note 11 – Employee Retirement Plan and Deferred Compensation Plan

Effective February 17, 2006, the Company adopted a 401(k) defined contribution retirement plan covering all full time employees who have completed one month of service. The Company may, at its sole discretion, match fifty cents per dollar up to 6% of each participating employee’s salary. The Company’s contributions vest in annual installments over three years. Discretionary contributions made by the Company totaled $70 and $78 for the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, respectively.

In January 2010, the Company adopted the U.S. Auto Parts Network, Inc. Management Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”), for the purpose of providing highly compensated employees a program to meet their financial planning needs. The Deferred Compensation Plan provides participants with the opportunity to defer up to 90% of their base salary and up to 100% of their annual earned bonus, all of which, together with the associated investment returns, are 100% vested from the outset. The Deferred Compensation Plan, which is designed to be exempt from most provisions of the Employee Retirement Security Act of 1974, is informally funded by the Company through the purchase of Company-owned life insurance policies with the Company (employer) as the owner and beneficiary, in order to preserve the tax-deferred savings advantages of a non-qualified plan. The plan assets are the cash surrender value of the Company-owned life insurance policies and not associated with the deferred compensation liability. The deferred compensation liabilities (consisting of employer contributions, employee deferrals and associated earnings and losses) are general unsecured obligations of the Company. Liabilities under the Deferred Compensation Plan are recorded at amounts due to participants, based on the fair value of participants’ selected investments. The Company may at its discretion contribute certain amounts to eligible employee accounts. In January 2010, the Company began to contribute 50% of the first 2% of participants’ eligible contributions into their Deferred Compensation Plan accounts. In September 2010, the Company established and transferred its ownership to a rabbi trust to hold the Company-owned life insurance policies. As of March 29, 2014, the assets and associated liabilities of the Deferred Compensation Plan were $876 and $665, respectively, and are included in other non-current assets and other non-current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. As of December 28, 2013, the assets and associated liabilities of the Deferred Compensation Plan were $876 and $838, respectively, and are included in other non-current assets and other non-current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014, the change in the associated liabilities include the employee contributions of $37, the Company contributions of $8 and earnings of $8, offset by distributions and forfeitures of $226. For the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2013, the change in the associated liabilities include the employee contributions of $31, the Company contributions of $9 and earnings of $33, offset by distributions of $47. For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014, the Company did not have a change in the cash surrender value of the Company-owned life insurance policies. For March 30, 2013, included in other income, the Company recorded a net gain of $31 for the change in the cash surrender value of the Company-owned life insurance policies.

Note 12 – Restructuring Costs

We did not incur severance costs during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014. As part of the Company’s initiatives to reduce labor costs and improve operating efficiencies in response to the challenges in the marketplace and general market conditions, we reduced our workforce in January 2013. We laid off 13 employees in the United States and 163 employees in the Philippines reducing our workforce to a total of 1,194 employees. The severance charges of approximately $498 were recorded in marketing expense, general and administrative expense, fulfillment expense and technology expense for $253, $94, $42 and $109, respectively, in January 2013.

Overview

We are one of the largest online providers of aftermarket auto parts, including body parts, engine parts, and performance parts and accessories. Our user-friendly websites provide customers with a broad selection of SKUs, with detailed product descriptions and photographs. Our proprietary product database maps our SKUs to product applications based on vehicle makes, models and years. We principally sell our products to individual consumers through our network of websites and online marketplaces. Our flagship websites are located at www.autopartswarehouse.com, www.jcwhitney.com and www.AutoMD.com and our corporate website is located at www.usautoparts.net. We believe our strategy of disintermediating the traditional auto parts supply chain and selling products directly to customers over the Internet allows us to more efficiently deliver products to our customers while generating higher margins.

Our History. We were formed in Delaware in 1995 as a distributor of aftermarket auto parts and launched our first website in 2000. We rapidly expanded our online operations, increasing the number of SKUs sold through our e-commerce network, adding additional websites, improving our Internet marketing proficiency and commencing sales in online marketplaces. As a result, our business has grown since 2000. Additionally, in August 2010, through our acquisition of Whitney Automotive Group, Inc. (referred to herein as “WAG”), we expanded our product-lines and increased our customer reach in the do-it-yourself (“DIY”) automobile and off-road accessories market. We had declines in our revenues and incurred losses in 2011, 2012 and 2013.

International Operations. In April 2007, we established offshore operations in the Philippines. Our offshore operations allow us to access a workforce with the necessary technical skills at a significantly lower cost than comparably experienced U.S.-based professionals. Our offshore operations are responsible for a majority of our website development, catalog management, and back office support. Our offshore operations also house our main call center. We believe that the cost advantages of our offshore operations provide us with the ability to grow our business in a cost-effective manner.

Acquisitions. From time to time, we may acquire certain businesses, websites, domain names, or other assets. In 2009, we completed the acquisition of the assets of a small website and the related domain names which further expanded and enhanced our product offering and our ability to reach more customers. In the first quarter of 2010, we completed two additional website and domain name asset acquisitions, which increased our net sales and internet traffic. In August 2010, Go Fido, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours, completed the purchase of all of the outstanding capital stock of Automotive Specialty Accessories and Parts, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary WAG. WAG’s Midwest facility expanded our distribution network and the merchandise WAG offers extended our go-to market product-lines into all terrain vehicles, recreational vehicles and motorcycles, and provided us with deep product knowledge into niche segments like Jeep, Volkswagen and trucks. This expansion of our product line increased our customer reach in the DIY automobile and off-road accessories market. Currently, we do not intend to pursue any acquisition opportunities in the near future. Our Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”) currently restricts our ability to enter into any acquisitions without prior permission from JPMorgan.

To understand revenue generation through our network of e-commerce websites (which excludes online market places), we monitor several key business metrics, including the following:

Unique Visitors: A unique visitor to a particular website represents a user with a distinct IP address that visits that particular website. We define the total number of unique visitors in a given month as the sum of unique visitors to each of our websites during that month. We measure unique visitors to understand the volume of traffic to our websites and to track the effectiveness of our online marketing efforts. The number of unique visitors has historically varied based on a number of factors, including our marketing activities and seasonality. Included in the unique visitors are mobile device based customers, who are becoming an increasing part of our business. Shifting consumer behavior and technology enhancements indicates that customers are becoming more inclined to purchase auto parts through their mobile devices. User sophistication and technological advances have increased consumer expectations around the user experience on mobile devices, including speed of response, functionality, product availability, security, and ease of use. We believe enhancements to online solutions specifically catering to mobile based shopping can result in an increase in the number of orders and revenues. We believe an increase in unique visitors to our websites can result in an increase in the number of orders. We seek to increase the number of unique visitors to our websites by attracting repeat customers and improving search engine marketing and other internet marketing activities. During the first quarter of 2014, our unique visitors reduced by 17.7% compared to the first quarter of 2013. Excluding the impact of discontinued websites, our unique visitors reduced by 4.7 million compared to the first quarter of 2013. We expect the total number of unique visitors to marginally improve throughout 2014, as we continue to address the challenges we are experiencing from changes search engines have made to the formulas, or algorithms, that they use to optimize their search results, as described in further detail under “Executive Summary” below.

Total Number of Orders: We monitor the total number of orders as an indicator of future revenue trends. During the first quarter of 2014, the total number of orders was lower by 7.8% due to the decrease in unique visitors combined with overall increased competition. We expect the total number of orders to marginally improve throughout 2014 when compared to 2013. We recognize revenue associated with an order when the products have been delivered, consistent with our revenue recognition policy.

Average Order Value: Average order value represents our net sales on a placed orders basis for a given period of time divided by the total number of orders recorded during the same period of time. During the first quarter of 2014, our average order value reduced by 1.8% compared to the first quarter of 2013. We expect the lower average order value trend may continue in 2014 primarily due to increased competition, as described in further detail under “Executive Summary” below. We seek to increase the average order value as a means of increasing net sales. Average order values vary depending upon a number of factors, including the components of our product offering, the order volume in certain online sales channels, macro-economic conditions, and competition online.

Revenue Capture: Revenue capture is the amount of actual dollars retained after taking into consideration returns, credit card declines and product fulfillment. During the first quarter of 2014, our revenue capture improved by 3.3% to 84.9% compared to 82.2% in the first quarter of 2013. The increase in revenue capture was due to lower returns and credit card declines, and improved product fulfillment in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. We expect our revenue capture level to marginally improve throughout 2014 as we continue to improve our customers’ purchase experience.

Conversion: Conversion is the number of orders as a rate to the total number of unique visitors. This rate indicates how well we convert a visitor to a customer sales order. During the first quarter of 2014, our conversion improved by 11.8% to 1.61% compared to 1.44% in the first quarter of 2013.

Executive Summary

For the first quarter of 2014, the Company generated net sales of $68.0 million, compared with $65.4 million for the first quarter of 2013, representing an increase of 4.0%. Net income for the first quarter of 2014 was $0.2 million, or $0.00 per basic and diluted share. This compares to a net loss of $3.3 million, or $0.11 per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2013. We generated net income (loss) before interest expense, net, income tax provision, depreciation and amortization expense, amortization of intangible assets plus share-based compensation expense and restructuring costs (“Adjusted EBITDA”) of $3.3 million in the first quarter of 2014 compared to $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2013. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because such measure is used by rating agencies, securities analysts, investors and other parties in evaluating the Company. It should not be considered, however, as an alternative to operating income, as an indicator of the Company’s

operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows, as measures of the Company’s overall liquidity, as presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Further, the Adjusted EBITDA measure shown for the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Refer to the table presented below for reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA.

Total revenues increased in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 primarily due to our online sales. Net sales increased to $68.0 million for Q1 2014 compared to $65.4 million for Q1 2013. Our Q1 2014 net sales consisted of online sales, representing 89.4% of the total (compared to 89.6% in Q1 2013), and offline sales, representing 10.6% of the total (compared to 10.4% in Q1 2013). The net sales increase was primarily due to an increase of $2.2 million, or 3.8%, in online sales and by $0.4 million, or 5.9%, increase in offline sales. The $2.2 million increase in online sales was primarily driven by a $6.5 million, or 12.2%, increase from continuing online sales channels offset by a reduction in online sales from websites we discontinued of $4.3 million. The continuing sales channels growth is the result of a $1.1 million or 2.6% increase in our continuing e-commerce sales channels and a $5.4 million increase in our online marketplaces. The $1.1 million increase in our continuing e-commerce sales channels was driven by a 6.0% increase in conversion and partially offset by a 5.5% decrease in traffic and 0.9% decline in average order value. The discontinued websites resulted in a 4.7 million reduction in unique visitors in Q1 2014 compared with Q1 2013. Our offline sales for the first quarter of 2014 increased by $0.4 million, or 5.9%, to $7.2 million compared to the first quarter of 2013.

Prior to the first quarter of fiscal 2014, year-over-year quarterly revenue declined for six consecutive quarters beginning in the third quarter of 2012. The highest decline occurred during the first quarter of 2013 (25%) as compared to the first quarter of 2012, and the least in the fourth quarter of 2013 compared to the fourth quarter of 2012 (5%). The table below presents quarterly revenues and the change in quarterly year-over-year revenues.

Like most e-commerce retailers, our success depends on our ability to attract online consumers to our websites and convert them into customers in a cost-effective manner. Historically, marketing through search engines provided the most efficient opportunity to reach millions of online auto part buyers. We are included in search results through paid search listings, where we purchase specific search terms that will result in the inclusion of our listing, and algorithmic searches that depend upon the searchable content on our websites. In 2013, we decreased the amount we spent on paid search listings, as we determined that it did not generate a sufficient amount of revenues to justify the expense. Algorithmic listings cannot be purchased and instead are determined and displayed solely by a set of formulas utilized by the search engine. We have had a history of success with our search engine marketing techniques, which gave our different websites preferred positions in search results. But search engines, like Google, revised, and continue to revise their algorithms regularly in an attempt to optimize their search results. In fiscal years 2012 and 2013, we were negatively impacted by the changes in methodology for how Google and other search engines displayed or selected our different websites for customer search results, which in turn reduced our unique visitor count and adversely affected our financial results. Our unique visitor count decreased by 6.5 million, or 17.7%, for the first quarter of 2014 to 30.3 million unique visitors compared to 36.8 million unique visitors in the first quarter of 2013. We believe we continue to be affected by these search engine algorithm changes. We also consolidated to a significantly smaller number of websites, which resulted in fewer unique visitors compared to the first quarter of 2013. As we are significantly dependent upon search engines for our website traffic, if we are unable to attract unique visitors and convert our unique visitors to orders, our business and results of operations will be harmed.

Barriers to entry in the automotive aftermarket industry are low, and current and new competitors can launch websites at a relatively low cost. We experienced significant competitive pressure from certain of our suppliers as they are now selling their products online. Since our suppliers have access to merchandise at very low costs, they were able to sell products at lower prices and maintain higher gross margins, thus our financial results were negatively impacted by the increased level of competition. Total orders for the first quarter of 2014 went down by 7.8% to 488,000 compared to 529,000 for the first quarter of 2013 and our average order value decreased by $2.00, or 1.8%, for the first quarter of 2014 to $107 compared to $109 in the first quarter of 2013 as a result of increased pricing competition. Our current and potential customers may decide to purchase directly from our suppliers. Continuing increased competition from our suppliers that have access to products at lower prices than us could result in reduced sales, lower operating margins, reduced profitability, loss of market share and diminished brand recognition. In addition, some of our competitors have used and may continue to use aggressive pricing tactics. We expect that competition will further intensify in the future as Internet use and online commerce continue to grow worldwide.

Total expenses, which primarily consisted of cost of sales and operating costs, decreased during the first quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. Components of our cost of sales and operating costs are described in further detail under — “Basis of Presentation” below.

27

Table of Contents

Our personnel costs declined in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. Our employees at the end of the first quarter of 2014 decreased to 1,016 as compared to 1,101 at the end of the first quarter of 2013. In January 2013, as part of the Company’s initiatives to reduce labor costs and improve operating efficiencies in response to the challenges in the marketplace and general market conditions, we reduced our workforce by 176 employees (for additional details, refer to “Note 12-Restructuring Costs” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part I, Item 1 of this report). While we have and continue to undertake several initiatives to improve revenues and reduce the losses in 2014, if the downward revenue and loss trend observed in 2012 and 2013 continue in 2014, we may be required to further reduce our labor costs.

Revenues have increased during the first quarter of 2014, when compared to the first quarter of 2013, and we expect our revenues to marginally improve for all the quarters of fiscal year 2014 when compared to comparable quarters of fiscal year 2013. We expect to incur a net loss to marginal net income in fiscal year 2014 as compared to fiscal year 2013. However, if the downward trend experienced in 2012 and 2013 recurs in 2014 and is more negative than we expect, it could severely impact our liquidity as we may not be able to provide positive cash flows from operations in order to meet our working capital requirements. We may need to borrow additional funds from our credit facility, which under certain circumstances may not be available, sell additional assets or seek additional equity or additional debt financing in the future. Refer to “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below for additional details. There can be no assurance that we would be able to raise such additional financing or engage in such asset sales on acceptable terms, or at all. If we do experience the downward trend in revenues and net loss we experienced in 2012 and 2013 recurs and continues any longer because our strategies to return to positive sales growth and profitability are not successful or otherwise, and if we are not able to raise adequate additional financing or proceeds from additional asset sales to continue to fund our ongoing operations, we will need to defer, reduce or eliminate significant planned expenditures, restructure or significantly curtail our operations.

In 2013, we made positive strides towards achieving our strategic goals and during the first quarter of 2014 continued to make positive strides to pursue these strategies to return to positive sales growth and profitability:

As we redesign our approach to attracting customers through search engines, we hope to offset much of the revenue loss by pursuing revenue opportunities in third-party online marketplaces, a number of which are growing significantly. Auto parts buyers are finding third-party online marketplaces to be a very attractive environment, for many reasons, the top four being: (1) the security of their personal information; (2) the ability to easily compare product offerings from multiple sellers; (3) transparency (consumers can leave positive or negative feedback about their experience); and (4) favorable pricing. Successful selling in these third-party online marketplaces depends on product innovation, and strong relationships with suppliers, both of which we believe to be our core competencies.

There are various macro-economic factors that indirectly affect our business, including the impact of the recession, continued high unemployment, and other challenging economic conditions. These factors decrease the overall discretionary spending of our customers and we believe it becomes more likely that consumers will keep their current vehicles longer, thus will need replacement parts as a result of general wear and tear, and perform repair and maintenance in order to keep those vehicles well maintained. At the same time, higher gas prices are negatively impacting the industry as consumers drive less and reduce the wear and tear on their vehicles. Given the nature of these factors, and the volatility of the overall economic environment, we cannot predict whether or for how long these trends will continue, nor can we predict to what degree these trends will impact us in the future.

Basis of Presentation

Net Sales. Online and offline sales represent two different sales channels for our products. We generate online net sales primarily through the sale of auto parts to individual consumers through our network of e-commerce websites, including mobile based online sales, and online marketplaces, including online advertising. E-commerce sales are derived from our network of websites, which we own and operate. E-commerce and online marketplace sales also include inbound telephone sales through our call center that supports these sales channels. Online marketplaces consist primarily of sales of our products on online auction websites, where we sell through auctions as well as through storefronts that we maintain on third-party owned websites. We sell advertising and sponsorship positions on our e-commerce websites to highlight vendor brands and offer complementary products and services that benefit our customers. Advertising is targeted to specific sections of the websites and can also be targeted to specific users based on the vehicles they drive. Advertising partners primarily include part vendors, national automotive aftermarket brands and automobile manufacturers. Our offline sales channel represents our distribution of products directly to commercial customers by selling auto parts to collision repair shops located in Southern California and Virginia. Our offline sales channel also includes the distribution of our Kool-Vue™ mirror line to auto parts distributors nationwide. We also serve consumers by operating a retail outlet store in LaSalle, Illinois.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales consists of the direct costs associated with procuring parts from suppliers and delivering products to customers. These costs include product costs, outbound freight and shipping costs, warehouse supplies and warranty costs, partially offset by purchase discounts and cooperative advertising. Depreciation and amortization expenses are excluded from cost of sales and included in marketing, general and administrative and fulfillment expenses as noted below.

Marketing Expense. Marketing expense consists of online advertising spend, internet commerce facilitator fees and other advertising costs, as well as payroll and related expenses associated with our marketing catalog, customer service and sales personnel. These costs are generally variable and are typically a function of net sales. Marketing expense also includes depreciation and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expense consists primarily of administrative payroll and related expenses, payment processing fees, legal and professional fees, amortization of software and other administrative costs. General and administrative expense also includes depreciation and amortization expense and share-based compensation expense.

Fulfillment Expense. Fulfillment expense consists primarily of payroll and related costs associated with our warehouse employees and our purchasing group, facilities rent, building maintenance, depreciation and other costs associated with inventory management and our wholesale operations. Fulfillment expense also includes share-based compensation expense.

The following table sets forth selected statement of operations data for the periods indicated, expressed as a percentage of net sales:

Thirteen Weeks Ended March 29, 2014 Compared to the Thirteen Weeks Ended March 30, 2013

Net Sales and Gross Margin

Net sales increased to $68.0 million for Q1 2014 compared to $65.4 million for Q1 2013. Our Q1 2014 net sales consisted of online sales, representing 89.4% of the total (compared to 89.6% in Q1 2013), and offline sales, representing 10.6% of the total (compared to 10.4% in Q1 2013). The net sales increase was primarily due to an increase of $2.2 million, or 3.8%, in online sales and by $0.4 million, or 5.9%, increase in offline sales. The $2.2 million increase in online sales was primarily driven by a $6.5 million, or 12.2%, increase from continuing online sales channels offset by a reduction in online sales from websites we discontinued of $4.3 million. The continuing sales channels growth is the result of a $1.1 million or 2.6% increase in our continuing e-commerce sales channels and a $5.4 million increase in our online marketplaces. The $1.1 million increase in our continuing e-commerce sales channels was driven by a 6.0% increase in conversion and partially offset by a 5.5% decrease in traffic and 0.9% decline in average order value. The discontinued websites resulted in a 4.7 million reduction in unique visitors in Q1 2014 compared with Q1 2013. Overall, online sales improved primarily due to an increase in the conversion rate of our unique users, partially offset by lower actual users, average order values and revenue capture. During the first quarter of 2013, revenues declined due to decrease in unique visitors, which was due to a reduction in customer traffic as a result of changes search engines made to the algorithms that search engines use to optimize their search results. Also, our revenues were negatively impacted by the increased competition as described in further detail under “Executive Summary” above. Our offline sales, which consist of our Kool-Vue™ and wholesale operations, continued to show growth. Revenues have improved during the first quarter of 2014, when compared to the first quarter of 2013, and we expect our revenues to marginally improve for all the quarters of fiscal year 2014 when compared to comparable quarters of fiscal year 2013.

Table of Contents

Gross profit increased by $1.0 million, or 4.9%, in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. Gross margin improved by 0.2% to 30.4% in the first quarter of 2014 compared to 30.2% in the first quarter of 2013. Gross margin in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013 improved primarily due to higher penetration of sales of our private table products, which generate a higher gross margin and partially offset by higher freight expense.

Marketing Expense

Total marketing expense decreased $1.1 million, or 9.6%, for the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. Online advertising expense, which includes catalog costs, was $4.4 million, or 7.2%, of online sales compared to $4.3 million, or 7.4%, of online sales for the prior year period. Online advertising expense increased primarily due to an increase in our non-catalog online adverting expenses, which includes listing and placement fees paid to commercial and search engine websites, of $0.1 million or 2.7%. Marketing expense, excluding online advertising, was $5.7 million, or 8.4%, of net sales compared to $6.9 million, or 10.5%, of net sales for the first quarter of 2013. Marketing expense was lower than first quarter 2013 primarily due to lower wages of $0.3 million, marketing overhead of $0.3 million and lower depreciation of $0.6 million.

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expense decreased $0.5 million, or 11.5%, for the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. The decrease was primarily due to lower compensation costs of $0.3 million, lower depreciation and amortization of $0.1 million and lower overhead costs of $0.1 million, compared to the prior year period.

Fulfillment Expense

Fulfillment expense decreased $0.7 million, or 12.4%, for the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. The decrease was primarily due to lower depreciation and amortization expense of $0.6 million and lower overhead costs of $0.1 million compared to the prior year period.

Technology Expense

Technology expense decreased $0.4 million, or 24.2%, for the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. The decrease was primarily due to lower wages of $0.1 million and lower overhead costs of $0.2 million compared to the prior year period.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangibles was approximately $84,000 for the first quarter of 2014 compared to $106,000 the first quarter of 2013. The decrease was primarily due to lower amortization cost recorded as a result of the impairment recorded during the fourth quarter of 2012.

Total Other Expense, Net

Total other expense, net increased $0.1 million, or 45.6%, for the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. The increase was primarily due to the amortization of the interest cost on the sale lease-back transaction.

Income Tax Provision

For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, the effective tax rate for the Company was 13.7% and (0.6)%, respectively. The Company has a full valuation allowance against its net deferred income tax assets. Income taxes in the 2014 and 2013 periods relate primarily to income earned in the Philippines.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014, we funded our operations with cash generated from operations. During the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2013, we funded our operations with cash generated from operations; net proceeds from the issuance of Series A convertible preferred stock (“Series A Preferred”) and our credit facility. We had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1.4 million as of March 29, 2014, representing a $0.6 million increase from $0.8 million of cash and cash equivalents as of December 28, 2013. Based on our current operating plan, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, investments, cash flows from operations and debt financing will be sufficient to finance our operational cash needs through at least the next twelve months.

In May 2011, we filed a shelf registration statement covering the offer and sale of up to $200 million of common stock with the SEC. The shelf registration was declared effective by the SEC on August 10, 2011. The terms of any offering under our shelf registration statement will be determined at the time of the offering and disclosed in a prospectus supplement filed with the SEC. In March 2013, the Company agreed to sell up to 2,050,000 shares of its common stock at a purchase price per share of $1.09 for aggregate proceeds to the Company of approximately $2.2 million in an offering under the Company’s shelf registration statement. The transaction closed on April 3, 2013.

Working Capital

As of March 29, 2014 and December 28, 2013, our working capital was $11.1 million and $9.8 million, respectively. Our credit facility consists of a five-year revolving loan with available funds of up to $20 million subject to a borrowing base derived from certain of our receivables, inventory and property and equipment (see further discussion in “Debt and Available Borrowing Resources” below). Our revolving loan does not require principal payments, however it is classified as current due to certain U.S. GAAP requirements (see “Debt and Available Borrowing Resources” below for further details). The historical seasonality in our business during the year can cause cash and cash equivalents, inventory and accounts payable to fluctuate, resulting in changes to the components of our working capital.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes the key cash flow metrics from our consolidated statements of cash flows for thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 (in thousands):

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities is primarily comprised of net income (loss), adjusted for non-cash activities such as depreciation and amortization expense, amortization of intangible assets and share-based compensation expense. These non-cash adjustments represent charges reflected in net income (loss) and, therefore, to the extent that non-cash items increase or decrease our operating results, there will be no corresponding impact on our cash flows. Net income adjusted for non-cash adjustments to operating activities was $3.1 million (adjusted for non-cash charges primarily consisting of share based compensation expense of $0.4 million and depreciation and amortization expense of $2.4 million) for the first quarter of 2014, compared to $0.9 million (adjusted for non-cash charges primarily consisting of share based compensation of $0.4 million and depreciation and amortization expense of $3.7 million) for the first quarter of 2013. After excluding the effects of the non-cash charges, the primary changes in cash flows relating to operating activities resulted from changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Investing Activities

For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, net cash used in investing activities was primarily the result of increases in property and equipment ($1.6 million and $2.6 million, respectively), which are mainly related to capitalized website and software development costs. We expect our capital expenditures to decrease for fiscal year 2014 when compared to fiscal year 2013, as we attempt to reduce capital expenditures to bolster our ability to satisfy our operational cash needs.

Financing Activities

For the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014, net cash used in financing activities was primarily related to payments made on our revolving loan payable, as the amount under our revolving debt was reduced by $6.0 million. For the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2013, net cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to net proceeds received from the issuance of Series A Preferred of $5.8 million, partially offset by the net payments made on debt, totaling $4.1 million (see further discussion in “ Debt and Available Borrowing Resources ” below).

In March 2013, the Company authorized the issuance of 4,149,997 shares of Series A Preferred and entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell up to an aggregate of 4,149,997 shares of our Series A Preferred, $0.001 par value per share, at a purchase price per share of $1.45 for aggregate proceeds to the Company of approximately $6.0 million. We sold 3,999,997 shares of Series A Preferred for aggregate proceeds of $5.8 million in March 2013 on which we incurred issuance costs of approximately $0.8 million. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale of the Series A Preferred to reduce its then revolving loan payable. Dividends on the Series A Preferred are payable quarterly at a rate of $0.058 per share per annum in cash, in shares of common stock or in any combination of cash and common stock as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. Concurrent with the Company’s issuance of Series A Preferred, the Company, certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and JPMorgan entered into a Second Amended Credit Agreement to allow the Company to pay cash dividends on the Series A Preferred in an aggregate amount of up to $400,000 per year and pay cash in lieu of issuing fractional shares upon conversion of or in payment of dividends on the Series A Preferred. Refer to “Note 6 – Borrowings” and “Note 7—Stockholders’ Equity and Share-Based Compensation” of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details.

Debt and Available Borrowing Resources

Total debt was $10.5 million as of March 29, 2014, and was primarily comprised of our capital leases of $9.7 million, (discussed further below). Total debt was $16.6 million as of December 28, 2013. The decrease was due to net debt payments we made to our revolving loan payable. (see further discussion below).

In April 2012, the Company, certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”), as sole lender and administrative agent entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving commitment in an aggregate principal amount of up to $40,000 (the “Credit Facility”), which is subject to a borrowing base derived from certain receivables, inventory and property and equipment. In August 2013, the Company, certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and JPMorgan entered into a third amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Third Amended Credit Agreement”) amending the Credit Agreement to, among other things, reduce the revolving commitment to $20,000 and, upon satisfaction of certain conditions, provide that the Company has the right to increase the revolving commitment up to $40,000. The Credit Facility matures on April 26, 2017. The Company used the proceeds of the loans borrowed on the closing date to repay in full its previous credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank. At March 29, 2014, our outstanding revolving loan balance was $0. 8 million. As of May 2,2014, the outstanding revolving loan balance was $0.The customary events of default under the Credit Facility (discussed below) include certain subjective acceleration clauses, which management has determined the likelihood of such acceleration is more than remote. The Company determined that a current classification of our revolving loan payable is appropriate.

Loans drawn under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a per annum rate equal to either (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.50%, or (b) an “alternate base rate” minus an applicable margin of 0.50%. Each applicable margin as set forth in the prior sentence is subject to increase or decrease by 0.25% per annum based upon the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio. At March 29, 2014, the Company’s LIBOR based interest rate was 1.94% (on $0 million principal) and the Company’s prime based rate was 3.0% (on $0.8 million principal). A commitment fee, based upon undrawn availability under the Credit Facility bearing interest at a rate of 0.20% per annum, is payable monthly. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, cash receipts are deposited into a lock-box, which are at the Company’s discretion unless the “cash dominion period” is in effect, during which cash receipts will be used to reduce amounts owing under the Credit Agreement. The cash dominion period is triggered in an event of default or if excess availability is less than $6,000 at any time, as defined, and will continue until, during the preceding 60 consecutive days, no event of default existed and excess availability has been greater than $7,000 at all times. The Company’s excess availability was $15.5 million at March 29, 2014. As of the date hereof, the cash dominion period has not been in effect; accordingly no principal payments are currently due.

Certain of the Company’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries are co-borrowers (together with the Company, the “Borrowers”) under the Credit Agreement, and certain other wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries are guarantors (the “Guarantors” and, together with the Borrowers, the “Loan Parties”) under the Credit Agreement. The Borrowers and the Guarantors are jointly and severally liable for the Borrowers’ obligations under the Credit Agreement. The Loan Parties’ obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured, subject to customary permitted liens and certain exclusions, by a perfected security interest in (a) all tangible and intangible assets and (b) all of the capital stock owned by the Loan Parties (limited, in the case of foreign subsidiaries, to 65% of the capital stock of such foreign subsidiaries). The Borrowers may voluntarily prepay the loans at any time without payment of a premium. The Borrowers are required to make mandatory prepayments of the loans (without payment of a premium) with net cash proceeds received upon the occurrence of certain “prepayment events,” which include certain sales or other dispositions of collateral, certain casualty or condemnation events, certain equity issuances or capital contributions, and the incurrence of certain debt.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, investments, dispositions, prepayment of other indebtedness, mergers, and dividends and other distributions. Concurrent with the Company’s issuance of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”), the Company, certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and JPMorgan entered into a second amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Second Amended Credit Agreement”) amending the Credit Agreement to, among other things, allow the Company to pay cash dividends on the Series A Preferred in an aggregate amount of up to $400 per year and pay cash in lieu of issuing fractional shares upon conversion of or in payment of dividends on the Series A Preferred, each subject to certain restrictions set forth in the Second Amended Credit Agreement but without having to satisfy certain other conditions that would have otherwise applied to the payment of such dividends.

Under the Credit Agreement, the Company is not required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, unless excess availability is less than $6,000, as defined, whereby a ratio of 1.0 to 1.0 will be required. Events of default under the Credit Agreement include: failure to timely make payments due under the Credit Agreement; material misrepresentations or misstatements under the Credit Agreement and other related agreements; failure to comply with covenants under the Credit Agreement and other related agreements; certain defaults in respect of other material indebtedness; insolvency or other related events; certain defaulted judgments; certain ERISA-related events; certain security interests or liens under the loan documents cease to be, or are challenged by the Company or any of its subsidiaries as not being, in full force and effect; any loan document or any material provision of the same ceases to be in full force and effect; and certain criminal indictments or convictions of any Loan Party. As of March 29, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement. However, if our excess availability is reduced to less than $6,000, we will not comply with the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio.

Funding Requirements

Based on our current operating plan, we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, investments, cash flows from operations and available debt financing, will be sufficient to finance our operational cash needs through at least the next twelve months. Our Credit Facility provides a less restrictive asset-based funding limit, which gives us improved liquidity options at a lower cost of capital. Our future capital requirements may, however, vary materially from those now planned or anticipated. Changes in our operating plans, lower than anticipated net sales, increased expenses, continued or worsened economic conditions, worsening operating performance by us, or other events, including those described in “Risk Factors” included in Part II, Item 1A may force us to sell our existing assets and seek additional debt or equity financing in the future. We may need to issue additional common stock under our shelf registration, discussed above. There can be no assurance that we would be able to raise such additional financing or engage in such additional asset sales on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are not able to raise adequate additional financing or proceeds from additional asset sales, we will need to defer, reduce or eliminate significant planned expenditures, restructure or significantly curtail our operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

The following table sets forth our contractual cash obligations and commercial commitments as of March 29, 2014:

Seasonality

We believe our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations. We have historically experienced higher sales of body parts in winter months when inclement weather and hazardous road conditions typically result in more automobile collisions. Engine parts and performance parts and accessories have historically experienced higher sales in the summer months when consumers have more time to undertake elective projects to maintain and enhance the performance of their automobiles and the warmer weather during that time is conducive for such projects. We expect the historical seasonality trends to continue to have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations during the reporting periods in any given year.

Inflation

Inflation has not had a material impact upon our operating results, and we do not expect it to have such an impact in the near future. We cannot assure you that our business will not be affected by inflation in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales, costs and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and other related disclosures. On an

ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to revenue recognition, uncollectible receivables, inventory reserve, intangible and other long-lived assets and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of our assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and we include any revisions to our estimates in our results for the period in which the actual amounts become known.

Our critical accounting policies are included in “ Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of Operations” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included above in Part I, Item 1 of this report. There were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2014. We believe our critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these are the policies we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our historical consolidated financial condition and results of operations:
