The decrease in Total accounts and other receivables – net at March 31, 2018 versus December 31, 2017 was due primarily to increased collections during the three months ended March 31, 2018 related to a trade receivables discount arrangement with a third-party financial institution, enhancing liquidity and enabling the Company to efficiently manage its working capital needs, as well as lower sales and the collection of a Federal income tax refund.
