ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES |
Financial Instruments | The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash equivalents, trade receivables, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, customer deposits and other liabilities approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of these financial instruments. Notes payable and line of credit approximate fair value due to the market interest rate charged.
Earnings Per Share | Basic earnings per share of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share (our “Common Stock”), is computed by dividing net earnings available to holders of the Company’s Common Stock by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts requiring the Company to issue Common Stock were exercised or converted into Common Stock. For the calculation of diluted earnings per share, the basic weighted average number of shares is increased by the dilutive effect of stock options and warrants outstanding determined using the treasury stock method.
Goodwill | Goodwill is not amortized but evaluated for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year, or earlier if events or circumstances indicate the carrying value may be impaired. The Company’s goodwill is related to ECHG only and not the entire Company. ECHG has its own, separate financial information to perform goodwill impairment testing at least annually or if events indicate that those assets may be impaired. As a result of the current market and economic conditions related to the coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) and the war between Ukraine and Russia, in accordance with step 1 of the guidelines set forth in ASC 350-20-35-3A, the Company concluded there were no impairments of goodwill that resulted from triggering events due to COVID-19 and the war between Ukraine and Russia as of March 31, 2022. The Company will continue to evaluate goodwill for the ECHG segment. For tax purposes, goodwill is amortized and deductible over fifteen years. ECHG goodwill was allocated in connection with three acquisitions of the assets now held by Echo on May 20, 2019 (the “Echo Transaction”), of the assets now held by Teladvance on June 9, 2021 (the “CExchange Transaction”) and of the assets now held by Avail on October 29, 2021 (the “Avail Transaction”). There was a preliminary addition to goodwill with the Avail Transaction of $3,491,285. There has been no other adjustments or impairment charges to goodwill. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31 2021, goodwill was $6,140,465.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | In June 2016, the FASB issued a new credit loss accounting standard ASU 2016-13. The new accounting standard introduces the current expected credit losses methodology for estimating allowances for credit losses which will be based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. We will be required to use a forward-looking expected credit loss methodology for accounts receivable, loans and other financial instruments. The standard will be adopted upon the effective date for us beginning January 1, 2023 by using a modified retrospective transition approach to align our credit loss methodology with the new standard. The Company is evaluating the financial statement implications of ASU 2016-13.
