Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation – The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 and notes thereto and other pertinent information contained in our General Form for Registration of Securities of Form 10 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. 

Significant Estimates

Significant Estimates — The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves for inventory obsolescence, the useful lives and values of property and equipment, valuation of stock based compensation, and deferred tax asset valuation allowance.

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting —Although the Company has a number of operating divisions, separate segment data has not been presented, as they meet the criteria for aggregation as permitted by ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.) Our chief operating decision-maker is considered to be our Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The CEO reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. The financial information reviewed by the CEO is identical to the information presented in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Therefore, the Company has determined that it operates in a single operating segment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 all material assets and revenues of the Company were in the United States except as disclosed in “Concentration of Risk” below.

Concentrations of Risk

Concentrations of Risk — Substantially all of the Company’s revenue derives from the sale of Celsius® beverages.

 

The Company uses single supplier relationships for its raw materials purchases and filling capacity, which potentially subjects the Company to a concentration of business risk. If these suppliers had operational problems or ceased making product available to the Company, operations could be adversely affected.

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high-quality financial institutions. At times, balances in the Company’s cash accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit. At September 30, 2016 the Company had approximately $7.5 million in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit but has incurred no losses with respect to these accounts.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had the following 10 percent or greater concentrations of revenue with its customers:

 

    2016     2015  
A*     35.0 %     50.5 %
B     11.1 %     0.1 %
All other     53.9 %     49.4 %
Total     100.0 %     100.0 %

 

At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had the following 10 percent or greater concentrations of accounts receivable with its customers:

 

    2016     2015  
A*     54.4 %     50.0 %
B     8.1 %     11.8 %
All other     37.5 %     38.2 %
Total     100.0 %     100.0 %

 

*Revenues and receivables from customer A are derived from a distributor located in Sweden.

Cash Equivalents

Cash Equivalents — The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company did not have any investments with maturities of three months or less.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable — Accounts receivable are reported at net realizable value. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors pertaining to the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. Delinquent accounts are written-off when it is determined that the amounts are uncollectible. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there was an allowance for doubtful accounts of $79,332 and $3,500, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories — Inventories include only the purchase cost and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the FIFO method. Inventories consist of raw materials and finished products. The Company outsources its manufacturing process as a result has no work in process inventories. The Company reserves against inventory during the period in which such materials and products are no longer usable or marketable. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company recorded a reserve of $165,539 and $329,075, respectively. The changes in reserve are included in cost of revenue. Free Samples are also recorded as cost of revenue.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment — Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets generally ranging from three to seven years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets — In accordance with ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment” the Company reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair value.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition — Revenue is derived from the sale of beverages. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, the products are delivered, sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Any discounts, slotting fees, sales incentives or similar arrangements with the customer are estimated at time of sale and deducted from revenue.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred Revenue — From time to time the Company requires prepayments for deposits in advance of delivery of products and/or production runs. Such amounts are initially recorded as deferred revenue. The Company recognizes such revenue as it is earned in accordance with revenue recognition policies.

Advertising Costs

Advertising Costs — Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company uses mainly radio, local sampling events, sponsorships, endorsements, and digital advertising. The Company incurred advertising expense of approximately $3.4 million and $1.9 million during the nine months ending September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Research and Development

Research and Development — Research and development costs are charged to general and administrative expense as incurred and consist primarily of consulting fees, raw material usage and test productions of beverages. The Company incurred these expenses of $66,700 and $57,200 during the six months ending September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments — The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable approximate fair value due to their relative short-term maturity and market interest rates.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements - ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:

 

  Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
     
  Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

 

The Company did not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized. The Company follows the provisions of the ASC 740 -10, Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any.

   

Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.

 

The Company has adopted ASC 740-10-25 Definition of Settlement, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open.

 

The Company files its tax returns on a fiscal year September 30th tax year. The Company’s tax returns for tax years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 remain subject to potential examination by the taxing authorities.

Earnings per Share

Share-Based Payments —The Company has fully adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 718 CompensationStock Compensation and related interpretations for employee and non-employee stock based compensation. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at the fair value of the share-based payments. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the grants.

Share-Based Payments

Share-Based Payments —The Company has fully adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 718 CompensationStock Compensation and related interpretations for employee stock based compensation. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at the fair value of the share-based payments. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the grants. The Company accounts for non-employee stock based compensation on provisions of ASE 505-50 Equity Based Payments of Non-employees which provides for compensation at fair value at the time of issuance.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and Handling Costs — Shipping and handling costs for freight expense on goods shipped are included in cost of sales. Freight expense on goods shipped for nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was $1,478,000 and $844,000, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company adopts all applicable, new accounting pronouncements as of the specified effective dates.

 

In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments (“ASU 2015-16”). ASU 2015-16 simplifies the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination by requiring the acquirer to (i) recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amount is determined, (ii) record, in the same period, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date, and (iii) present separately or disclose the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. ASU 2015-16 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2015-16 on January 1, 2016 to its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15, Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements (Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcement at June 18, 2015 EITF Meeting) (“ASU 2015-15”). ASU 2015-15 allows debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit agreements to be presented in the balance sheet as an asset. ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 as of December 31, 2015; the adoption is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). ASU 2015-03 simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs and requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability (consistent with debt discounts).

 

 All new accounting pronouncements issued but not yet effective are not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Liquidity

Liquidity — These financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. At September 30, 2016, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $52,844,900 which includes a net loss available to common stockholders of $2,924,337 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. While these factors alone may raise doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, the proceeds remaining from the Company’s sale of common stock to an investor group on April 20, 2015 for a total of $11.5 million (see note 11) is deemed sufficient to alleviate substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
