Note

– Revenue

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note

to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in its Annual Report on Form

-K for the year ended

December 31, 2017.

Significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies as a result of adopting Accounting Standards Codification (ASC)

606

are discussed below:

Revenue Recognition

The Company provides quality prototyping and on-demand manufacturing services at unprecedented speeds. As a result, the majority of revenue recognized in a reporting period is based on completed, invoiced contracts. The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC

606,

which the Company adopted on

January 1, 2018,

using the modified retrospective method. Results for reporting periods beginning after

January 1, 2018

are presented under ASC

606,

while prior period amounts are

not

adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historic accounting under ASC

605

. The Company recorded a net increase to its retained earnings balance on

January 1, 2018

$1.5

million due to the cumulative impact of adopting ASC

606.

The impact of adopting ASC

606

was to increase revenue $

0.4

million and cost of revenue of

$0.2

million for the

three

months ended

March 31, 2018, and to

increase accounts receivable

$2.9

million and decrease inventory $

1.3

million as of

March 31, 2018.

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer, and is the unit of account in ASC

606.

The majority of the Company’s CNC machining,

printing, and sheet metal contracts have a single performance obligation. The majority of the Company’s injection molding contracts have multiple performance obligations including

one

obligation to produce the mold and a

second

obligation to produce parts. For injection molding contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. We generally determine standalone selling price based on the price charged to customers.

The Company manufactures parts that have

alternative use to the Company since the parts are custom made to specific customer orders, and the Company believes there is a legally enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date on these manufactured parts. For manufactured parts that meet these

two

criteria, the Company will recognize revenue over time. Revenue is recognized over time using the input method based on time in production to measure progress toward satisfying performance obligations.

Revenue by geographic region for the

three

March 31, 2018

The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been

one

year or less. These costs are recorded within marketing and sales expenses. The Company does

not

disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of

one

year or less.
