Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Description of Business | Description of Business CEA Industries Inc., formerly Surna Inc. (the “Company”), was incorporated in Nevada on October 15, 2009. We design, engineer and sell environmental control and other technologies for the Controlled Environment Agriculture (“CEA”) industry. The CEA industry is one of the fastest-growing sectors of the United States’ economy. From leafy greens (kale, Swiss chard, mustard, cress), microgreens (leafy greens harvested at the first true leaf stage), ethnic vegetables, ornamentals, and small fruits (such as strawberries, blackberries and raspberries) to bell peppers, cucumbers, and tomatoes and cannabis and hemp, more and more producers consider or act to grow crops indoors in response to market dynamics or as part of their preferred farming practice. In service of the CEA industry, we provide: (i) architectural design and licensed engineering of commercial scale thermodynamic systems specific to cultivation facilities, (ii) liquid-based process cooling systems and other climate control systems, (iii) air handling equipment and systems, (iv) air sanitation products, (v) LED lighting, (vi) benching and racking solutions for indoor cultivation, (vii) proprietary and third party controls systems and technologies used for environmental, lighting, and climate control, and (viii) preventive maintenance services, through our partnership with a certified service contractor network, for CEA facilities. Our customers include commercial, state- and provincial-regulated CEA growers in the U.S. and Canada. Customers are those growers building new facilities and those expanding or retrofitting existing facilities. Currently, our revenue stream is derived primarily from supplying our products, services, and technologies to commercial indoor facilities ranging from several thousand to more than 100,000 square feet. Headquartered in Louisville, Colorado, we leverage our experience in this space to bring value-added climate control solutions to our customers that help improve their overall crop quality and yield, optimize energy and water efficiency, and satisfy the evolving state and local codes, permitting and regulatory requirements. Although most of our customers do, we neither produce nor sell cannabis or its related products.
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Business | Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Business The impact of the government and the business economic response to the COVID-19 pandemic has affected demand across the majority of our markets and disrupted workflow and completion schedules on projects. The COVID-19 pandemic is expected to have continued adverse effects on our sales, project implementation, supply chain infrastructure, operating margins, and working capital. The resulting effects and uncertainties from the COVID-19 pandemic, including the depth and duration of the disruptions to customers and suppliers, its future effect on our business, on our results of operations, and on our financial condition, cannot be predicted. We expect that the economic disruptions will continue to have an effect on our business over the longer term. Despite this uncertainty, we continue to monitor costs and continue to take actions to reduce costs in order to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to the best of our ability. However, these actions may not be sufficient in the long run to avoid reduced sales, increased losses, and reduced operating cash flows in our business. During the year ended December 31, 2022, and continuing into the current fiscal quarter, the Company experienced delays in the receipt of equipment it had ordered to meet its customer orders due to disruption and delays in its supply chain. Consequently, our revenue recognition of some customer sales has been delayed until future periods when the shipment of orders can be completed. CEA Industries Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements March 31, 2023 (in US Dollars except share numbers) (Unaudited)
Impact of Ukrainian Conflict | Impact of Ukrainian Conflict Currently, we believe that the conflict between Ukraine and Russia does not have any direct impact on our operations, financial condition, or financial reporting. We believe the conflict will have only a general impact on our operations in the same manner as it has a general impact on all businesses that have their operations limited to North America resulting from international sanction and embargo regulations, possible shortages of goods and goods incorporating parts that may be supplied from the Ukraine or Russia, supply chain challenges, and the international and US domestic inflationary results of the conflict and government spending for and funding of our country’s response. As our operations are related only to the North American controlled environment agricultural industry, largely within the cannabis space, we do not believe we will be targeted for cyber-attacks related to this conflict. We have no operations in the countries directly involved in the conflict or are specifically impacted by any of the sanctions and embargoes, as we principally operate in the United States and Canada. We do not believe that the conflict will have any impact on our internal control over financial reporting. Other than general securities market trends, we do not have reason to believe that investors will evaluate the company as having special risks or exposures related to the Ukrainian conflict.
Inflation | Inflation Recently, our operations have started to be influenced by the inflation existent in the larger economy and in the industries related to building renovations, retrofitting and new build facilities in which we operate. We are likely to continue to face inflationary increases on the cost of products and our operations, which may adversely affect our margins and financial results and the pricing of our service and product supply contracts. Inflation is reflected in higher wages, increased pricing of equipment and other products that we have contracted to provide to our customers, and generally higher prices across all sectors of the economy. As we move forward, we plan to continuously monitor our various contract terms and may decide to add clauses that will permit us to adjust pricing if inflation and price increase pressures on us will impact our ability to perform our contracts and maintain our margins.
Financial Statement Presentation | Financial Statement Presentation The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures.
[custom:LiquidityPolicyTextBlock] |
Interim Financial Statements | Interim Financial Statements The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and note disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. The balance sheet information as of December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. CEA Industries Inc.

Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its controlled and wholly owned subsidiaries, Hydro Innovations, LLC (“Hydro”) and Surna Cultivation Technologies LLC (“SCT”). Intercompany transactions, profit, and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
[custom:ReverseStockSplitPolicyTextBlock] |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates Management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and that affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Key estimates include: allocation of transaction prices to performance obligations under contracts with customers, standalone selling prices, timing of expected revenue recognition on remaining performance obligations under contracts with customers, valuation of intangible assets and goodwill, valuation of equity-based compensation, valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, warranty accruals, accounts receivable and inventory allowances, and legal contingencies.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash | Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company may, from time to time, have deposits in financial institutions that exceed the federally insured amount of $250,000. As of March 31, 2023, the balance in the Company’s accounts was approximately $15,948,000, consequently approximately $15,698,000 of this balance was not insured by the FDIC. The Company has not experienced any losses to date on depository accounts.
Income (Loss) Per Common Share | Income (Loss) Per Common Share Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period without consideration of common stock equivalents. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including stock options, warrants and restricted stock units and other equity-based awards, except in cases where the effect of the common stock equivalents would be antidilutive. Potential common stock equivalents consist of common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants and the vesting of restricted stock units using the treasury method. CEA Industries Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements March 31, 2023 (in US Dollars except share numbers) (Unaudited) As of March 31, 2023, and March 31, 2022, there were respectively, 8,010,957 and 8,021,057, potentially dilutive equity instruments outstanding in respect of options outstanding to purchase Company common stock, warrants, and restricted stock units that were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock. Of these potentially dilutive equity instruments outstanding, 7,623,772 as of March 31, 2023 and 7,794,154 as of March 31, 2022 related to warrants issued in connection with the sale of our shares of series B Preferred stock and common stock in prior periods. The remaining 387,185 potentially dilutive equity instruments outstanding as of March 31, 2023 and 226,903 as of March 31, 2022 related to options and restricted stock units issued to our directors and staff.
Goodwill | Goodwill The Company recorded goodwill in connection with its acquisition of Hydro Innovations, LLC in July 2014. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that fair value of the reporting unit has been reduced to less than its carrying value. The Company performs a quantitative impairment test annually on December 31 by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The Company’s fair value is calculated using a market valuation technique whereby an appropriate control premium is applied to the Company’s market capitalization as calculated by applying its publicly quoted share price to the number of its common shares issued and outstanding. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is considered not impaired. An impairment charge would be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The Company determined that it has one reporting unit. As of June 30, 2022, the Company experienced a triggering event due to a drop in its stock price and performed a quantitative analysis for potential impairment of its goodwill. Based on this analysis, the Company determined that its carrying value exceeded its fair value. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $631,064 at June 30, 2022. No income tax benefit related to this goodwill impairment charge was recorded at June 30, 2022.
Temporary Equity | Temporary Equity Shares of preferred stock that are redeemable for cash or other assets are classified as temporary equity if they are redeemable, at the option of the holder, at a fixed or determinable price on a fixed or determinable date or upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the control of the Company. Redeemable equity instruments are initially carried at the fair value of the equity instrument at the issuance date, net of issuance costs, which is subsequently adjusted to redemption value (including the amount for dividends earned but not yet declared or paid) at each balance sheet date if the instrument is currently redeemable or if it is probable that the instrument will become redeemable.

Miscellaneous revenue of $148,776 represents non-refundable deposits, forfeited by former customers on previously cancelled contracts. Revenue Recognition Accounting Policy Summary The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606. Under the revenue standard, a performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. Most of the Company’s contracts contain multiple performance obligations that include engineering and technical services as well as the delivery of a diverse range of climate control system equipment and components, which can span multiple phases of a customer’s project life cycle from facility design and construction to equipment delivery and system installation and start-up. The Company does not provide construction services or system installation services. Some of the Company’s contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation, typically engineering only services contracts. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. When there are multiple performance obligations within a contract, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the standalone selling price. When estimating the selling price, the Company uses various observable inputs. The best observable input is the Company’s actual selling price for the same good or service, however, this input is generally not available for the Company’s contracts containing multiple performance obligations. For engineering services, the Company estimates the standalone selling price by reference to certain physical characteristics of the project, such as facility size and mechanical systems involved, which are indicative of the scope and complexity of the mechanical engineering services to be provided. For equipment sales, the standalone selling price is determined by forecasting the expected costs of the equipment and components and then adding an appropriate margin, based on a range of acceptable margins established by management. Depending on the nature of the performance obligations, the Company may use a combination of different methods and observable inputs if certain performance obligations have highly variable or uncertain standalone selling prices. Once the selling prices are determined, the Company applies the relative values to the total contract consideration and estimates the amount of the transaction price to be recognized as each promise is fulfilled. Generally, satisfaction occurs when control of the promised goods is transferred to the customer or as services are rendered or completed in exchange for consideration in an amount for which the Company expects to be entitled. The Company recognizes revenue for the sale of goods when control transfers to the customer, which primarily occurs at the time of shipment. The Company’s historical rates of return are insignificant as a percentage of sales and, as a result, the Company does not record a reserve for returns at the time the Company recognizes revenue. The Company has elected to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes (e.g., sales, use, value added, and certain excise taxes) that are assessed by a governmental authority in connection with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the Company from the customer. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue net of sales taxes. The revenue and cost for freight and shipping is recorded when control over the sale of goods passes to the Company’s customers. CEA Industries Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements March 31, 2023 (in US Dollars except share numbers) (Unaudited) The Company also has performance obligations to perform certain engineering services that are satisfied over a period of time. Revenue is recognized from this type of performance obligation as services are rendered based on the percentage completion towards certain specified milestones. The Company offers assurance-type warranties for its products and products manufactured by others to meet specifications defined by the contracts with customers and does not have any material separate performance obligations related to these warranties. The Company maintains a warranty reserve based on historical warranty costs. Disaggregation of Revenue In accordance with ASC 606-10-50-5 through 6, the Company considered the appropriate level of disaggregated revenue information that depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Additionally, per the implementation guidance in ASC 606-10-55-90 through 91, the Company also considered (a) disclosures presented outside of the financial statements such as earnings releases and investor presentations, (b) information regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker for evaluating the financial performance of operating segments and (c) other information that is similar to the types of information identified in (a) and (b) and that is used by the Company or users of the Company’s financial statements to evaluate financial performance or make resource allocation decisions. Finally, we considered the examples of categories found in the guidance that might be appropriate, including: (a) type of good or service (major product lines), (b) geographical region (country or region), (c) market or type of customer (government or non-government customers), (d) type of contract (fixed-price or time-and-materials), (e) contract duration (short- or long-term), (f) timing of transfer of goods or services (point-in-time or over time) and (g) sales channels (direct to customers or through intermediaries). Based on the aforementioned guidance and considerations, the Company determined that disaggregation of revenue by sales, services, shipping and handling, and miscellaneous was required. Other Judgments and Assumptions The Company typically receives customer payments in advance of its performance of services or transfers of goods. Applying the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-32-18, which the Company has elected, the Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component since the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between when the Company transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less. Accordingly, the remaining performance obligations related to customer contracts does not consider the effects of the time value of money. Applying the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4, the Company recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred since the amortization period of the assets that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. These costs include certain sales commissions and incentives, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, and are payable only when associated revenue has been collected and earned by the Company. CEA Industries Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements March 31, 2023 (in US Dollars except share numbers) (Unaudited) Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities Contract assets reflect revenue recognized and performance obligations satisfied in advance of customer billing. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of the satisfaction of performance under the contract. The Company receives payments from customers based on the terms established in its contracts. Contract assets include unbilled amounts where revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer and the right of payment is conditional, subject to completing a milestone, such as a phase of a project. The Company typically does not have material amounts of contract assets since revenue is recognized as control of goods are transferred or as services are performed. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no contract assets. Contract liabilities consist of advance payments in excess of revenue recognized. The Company’s contract liabilities are recorded as a current liability in deferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheets since the Company generally expects to recognize revenue in less than one year. Non-refundable customer deposits are recognized as revenue when previously abandoned customer contracts have been forfeited. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, deferred revenue, which was classified as a current liability, was $1,102,601 and $4,338,570, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized revenue of $3,852,906 related to the deferred revenue at January 1, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized revenue of $1,162,374 related to the deferred revenue at January 1, 2022. Remaining Performance Obligations Remaining performance obligations, or backlog, represents the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining obligations that the Company has not performed under its customer contracts. The Company has elected not to use the optional exemption in ASC 606-10-50-14, which exempts an entity from such disclosures if a performance obligation is part of a contract with an original expected duration of one year or less. Accordingly, the information disclosed about remaining performance obligations includes all customer contracts, including those with an expected duration of one year or less. Industry uncertainty, project financing concerns, and the licensing and qualification of our prospective customers, which are out of the Company’s control, make it difficult for the Company to predict when it will recognize revenue on its remaining performance obligations. There are risks that the Company may not realize the full contract value on customer projects in a timely manner or at all, and completion of a customer’s cultivation facility project is dependent upon the customer’s ability to secure funding and real estate, obtain a license and then build their cultivation facility so they can take possession of the equipment. Accordingly, the time it takes for customers to complete a project, which corresponds to when the Company is able to recognize revenue, is driven by numerous factors including: (i) the large number of first-time participants interested in the indoor cannabis cultivation business; (ii) the complexities and uncertainties involved in obtaining state and local licensure and permitting; (iii) local and state government delays in approving licenses and permits due to lack of staff or the large number of pending applications, especially in states where there is no cap on the number of cultivators; (iv) the customer’s need to obtain cultivation facility financing; (v) the time needed, and coordination required, for our customers to acquire real estate and properly design and build the facility (to the stage when climate control systems can be installed); (vi) the large price tag and technical complexities of the climate control and air sanitation system; (vii) the availability of power; and (viii) delays that are typical in completing any construction project. Further, based on the current economic climate, the uncertainty regarding the COVID-19 virus, and the Company’s recent cost cutting measures, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to fulfill its backlog, and the Company may experience contract cancellations, project scope reductions and project delays. CEA Industries Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements March 31, 2023 (in US Dollars except share numbers) (Unaudited) As of March 31, 2023, the Company’s remaining performance obligations, or backlog, was approximately $1,869,000. There is significant uncertainty regarding the timing of the Company’s recognition of revenue on its remaining performance obligations, and there is no certainty that these will result in actual revenues. The backlog at March 31, 2023, includes booked sales orders of $379,000 from three customers that the Company does not expect to be realized until 2024, if at all. This 2024 projected revenue amount contains a booked sales order of $279,000 (15% of the total backlog) from one customer that we believe is at risk of cancellation based on conversations with this customer. Given the current supply chain and bottleneck issues that are still being worked through by the Company’s supply chain partners, the Company believes that some of its current contracts could be delayed. The remaining performance obligations expected to be recognized through 2024 are as follows: Schedule of Remaining Performance Obligations Expected to be Recognized
|  | 2023 |  |  | 2024 |  |  | Total |
Remaining performance obligations related to engineering only paid contracts |  | $ | 172,000 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 172,000 |
Remaining performance obligations related to partial equipment paid contracts |  |  | 1,318,000 |  |  |  | 379,000 |  |  |  | 1,697,000 |
Total remaining performance obligations |  | $ | 1,490,000 |  |  | $ | 379,000 |  |  | $ | 1,869,000 |
Product Warranty | Product Warranty The Company warrants the products that it manufactures for a warranty period equal to the lesser of 12 months from start-up or 18 months from shipment. The Company’s warranty provides for the repair, rework, or replacement of products (at the Company’s option) that fail to perform within stated specification. The Company’s third-party suppliers also warrant their products under similar terms, which are passed through to the Company’s customers. The Company assesses the historical warranty claims on its manufactured products and, since 2016, warranty claims have been approximately 1% of annual revenue generated on these products. Based on the Company’s warranty policy, an accrual is established at 1% of the trailing 18 months revenue. The Company continues to assess the need to record a warranty reserve at the time of sale based on historical claims and other factors. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company had an accrued warranty reserve amount of $188,738 and $180,457, respectively, which are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Accounting for Share-Based Compensation | Accounting for Share-Based Compensation The Company recognizes the cost resulting from all share-based compensation arrangements, including stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units that the Company grants under its equity incentive plan in its condensed consolidated financial statements based on their grant date fair value. The expense is recognized over the requisite service period or performance period of the award. Awards with a graded vesting period based on service are expensed on a straight-line basis for the entire award. Awards with performance-based vesting conditions, which require the achievement of a specific company financial performance goal at the end of the performance period and required service period, are recognized over the performance period. Each reporting period, the Company reassesses the probability of achieving the respective performance goal. If the goals are not expected to be met, no compensation cost is recognized and any previously recognized amount recorded is reversed. If the award contains market-based vesting conditions, the compensation cost is based on the grant date fair value and expected achievement of market condition and is not subsequently reversed if it is later determined that the condition is not likely to be met or is expected to be lower than initially expected. The grant date fair value of stock options is based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model (the “Black-Scholes Model”). The Black-Scholes Model requires judgmental assumptions including volatility and expected term, both based on historical experience. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury interest rates whose term is consistent with the expected term of the option. The Company determines the assumptions used in the valuation of option awards as of the date of grant. Differences in the expected stock price volatility, expected term or risk-free interest rate may necessitate distinct valuation assumptions at those grant dates. As such, the Company may use different assumptions for options granted throughout the year. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the valuation assumptions used to determine the fair value of each option award on the date of grant were: expected stock price volatility of 152.23%; expected term in years of 10 and risk-free interest rate of 3.48%. CEA Industries Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements March 31, 2023 (in US Dollars except share numbers) (Unaudited) The grant date fair value of restricted stock and restricted stock units is based on the closing price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant. The Company has elected to reduce share-based compensation expense for forfeitures as the forfeitures occur since the Company does not have historical data or other factors to appropriately estimate the expected employee terminations and to evaluate whether particular groups of employees have significantly different forfeiture expectations. The following is a summary of share-based compensation expenses included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022: Schedule of Share-based Compensation Costs

Concentrations | Concentrations Three customers accounted for 39%, 28%, and 17% of the Company’s revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023. One customer accounted for 35% of the Company’s revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Three customers accounted for 68%, 20%, and 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of March 31, 2023. Two customers accounted for 57% and 43% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of December 31, 2022.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01 to require entities to classify and account for leases with related parties on the basis of legally enforceable terms and conditions of the arrangement. The amendments are effective in periods beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position. CEA Industries Inc. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements March 31, 2023 (in US Dollars except share numbers) (Unaudited) In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, which defers the sunset date of Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”) from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. ASU No. 2022-06 was effective upon issuance. Topic 848 provides temporary optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting, providing optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position. In September 2022, the FASB issued Update 2022-04, “Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations”. The update was issued in response to requests from financial statement users for increased transparency surrounding the use of supplier finance programs. The amendments in Update 2022-04 require that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. The amendments in this update do not affect the recognition, measurement, or financial statement presentation of obligations covered by supplier finance programs. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the amendment on rollforward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position. In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers”, which requires companies to apply ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. This creates an exception to the general recognition and measurement principle in ASC 805, which uses fair value. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, and the guidance should be applied prospectively. The impact of the standard on Company’s consolidated financial statements is dependent on the size and frequency of any future acquisitions the Company may complete. In March 2020, the FAS issued ASU No. 2020-04 “Reference Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”). ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments are effective for the Company as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The adoption of this guidance has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
