Foreign Currency [Abstract]  
Foreign Operations

Assets and liabilities denominated in non-U.S. currencies are translated at rates of exchange prevailing on the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange for the period. Gains or losses on the translation of the financial statements of a non-U.S. operation, where the functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, are reflected as a separate component of equity, which was a cumulative gain of approximately $862,000 and $647,000 as of September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we also recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $497,000 and $338,000, respectively, included in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the line item entitled “Other income (expense), net.”

 

Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $4.7 million at September 30, 2019. Of this amount, greater than 50% was held by our foreign subsidiaries in China and Latvia. These foreign funds were generated in China and Latvia as a result of foreign earnings. With respect to the funds generated by our foreign subsidiaries in China, the retained earnings of the legal entity must equal at least 50% of its registered capital before any funds can be repatriated through dividends. As of September 30, 2019, LPOIZ had approximately $3.5 million available for repatriation, based on retained earnings as of the end of the prior statutory tax year ended December 31, 2018, and LPOI did not have any earnings available for repatriation.
