Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, such unaudited information includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved for the entire year. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2021. Our fiscal year ends on March 31. References in this Quarterly Report to a particular “year” or “year-end” mean our fiscal year, and references to the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 refers to the period from April 1, 2021 through June 30, 2021.
Risk and Uncertainties, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Risks and Uncertainties The preparation of financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the reporting date and revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates represent management's judgement about the outcome of future events. The current global business environment continues to be impacted directly and indirectly by the effects of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19"), and it is not possible to accurately predict the future impact of COVID-19. However, we have reviewed the estimates used in preparing the financial statements and have identified the following factors that have a reasonable possibility of being materially affected by the impacts of COVID-19 during the near term:
● | Estimates regarding the future financial performance of the business used in the impairment tests for goodwill and long-lived assets acquired in a business combination; however, we identified no triggering events since our impairment analysis was completed during the quarter ended March 31, 2021;
● | Estimates regarding the recoverability of deferred tax assets and estimates regarding cash needs and associated indefinite reinvestment assertions;
● | Estimates regarding recoverability for customer receivables;
● | Estimates of the net realizable value of inventory.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements We have reviewed all recently issued accounting pronouncements and have concluded that they are either not applicable to or are not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options and Derivatives and Hedging Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity ("ASU 2020-06"), which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity, such as our convertible senior notes, due 2025 (the "Notes"). ASU 2020-06 also enhances transparency and improves disclosures for convertible instruments and earnings per share guidance. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted at the beginning of any fiscal year after December 15, 2020. The update permits the use of either the modified retrospective or full retrospective method of transition. We early adopted ASU 2020-06 effective April 1, 2021 on a modified retrospective basis, and our adoption of this standard had a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. Upon adoption, we derecognized the $22,735 equity conversion feature, net of taxes, that was recorded to common stock, and we derecognized the deferred tax liability of $5,747. We recorded an increase to the Note balance of an aggregate $22,799 as a result of the reversal of the separation of the debt and equity components of the convertible debt. The net effect of these adjustments, which represents historical non-cash interest expense, net of taxes of $5,683, was recorded as an increase in the balance of beginning retained earnings as of April 1, 2021. The adoption of this standard will significantly decrease the amount of non-cash interest expense recognized in future periods as a result of eliminating the discount associated with the equity component. Our statements of cash flows reflect the lower non-cash interest expense in effect after the adoption of ASU No. 2020-06. We have always intended to settle the Notes in shares of common stock rather than in cash, in each period in which the Notes have been outstanding, and therefore, we have applied the if-converted method to calculate the potentially dilutive impact of the Notes on earnings per share. In each reporting period, we have determined that the Notes were antidilutive. Due to decreases in non-cash interest expense that will result from the adoption of ASU 2020-06, it is likely the Notes will have a dilutive effect in future periods, which would decrease our diluted earnings per share.
