Principles of Consolidation and Nature of Operations | Envela and its subsidiaries engage in diverse business activities within the recommerce sector. These activities include being one of the nation's premier authenticated recommerce retailers of luxury hard assets; providing end-of-life asset recycling; offering data destruction and IT asset management; and providing products, services and solutions to industrial and commercial companies. Envela operates primarily via two operating and reportable segments. Through DGSE, LLC (“DGSE”), it operates Dallas Gold & Silver Exchange, Charleston Gold & Diamond Exchange, and Bullion Express brands. Through ECHG, LLC (“ECHG”), it operates Echo Environmental Holdings, LLC (“Echo”), ITAD USA Holdings, LLC (“ITAD USA”) and Teladvance, LLC (“Teladvance”). Envela is a Nevada corporation, headquartered in Irving, Texas. DGSE primarily buys and resells or recycles luxury hard assets like jewelry, diamonds, gemstones, fine watches, rare coins and related collectibles, precious-metal bullion products, gold, silver and other precious-metals. DGSE operates six jewelry stores at both the retail and wholesale levels throughout the United States via its facilities in Texas and South Carolina. Buying and selling items for their precious-metals content is a major method by which DGSE markets itself. DGSE also offers jewelry repair services, custom-made jewelry and consignment items, and maintains relationships with refiners for precious-metal items that are not appropriate for resale. The Company also maintains a presence in the retail market through its websites, www.dgse.com and www.cgdeinc.com. ECHG owns and operates Echo, ITAD USA and Teladvance, through which it primarily buys the electronic components from business and other organizations, such as school districts, for end-of-life recycling and resale, or to add life to economic devices by data destruction and refurbishment for reuse. Echo focuses on end-of-life electronics recycling and sustainability, ITAD USA provides IT equipment disposition, including compliance and data sanitization services, and Teladvance operates as a value-added reseller by providing offerings and services to companies looking either to upgrade capabilities or dispose of equipment. Like DGSE, ECHG also maintains relationships with refiners or recyclers to which it sells valuable materials it extracts from electronics and IT equipment that are not appropriate for resale or reuse. ECHG’s customers are companies and organizations that are based domestically and internationally. For additional information on the businesses of both DGSE and ECHG, see “Item 1. Business – Operating Segments” in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
