Note 3 - Variable interest entity

 

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of October 31, 2011 reflect consolidation of its variable interest entity, K&K Unlimited, LLC (K&K), in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. K&K was formed on August 14, 2009 for the purpose of establishing a separation of legal ownership of the building where Cables Unlimited conducts its operations.  Cables Unlimited’s former sole stockholder is the sole member of K&K. Cables Unlimited was deemed the primary beneficiary of K&K even though it has no direct ownership in K&K as it had the power to direct the activities of K&K that most significantly impacted its economic performance and provided significant financial support through a lease agreement between Cables Unlimited and K&K. Cables Unlimited was also guarantor of K&K’s mortgage notes payable to Teacher’s Federal Credit Union (“TFCU”) and Small Business Administration (“SBA”) establishing a direct obligation to absorb any losses of K&K.

 

In November 2011, the mortgage note to the SBA was paid in full, thereby releasing Cables Unlimited from any guarantee on said note. In addition, Cables Unlimited was released as a guarantor on the mortgage note payable to TFCU, which was repaid through a refinancing on January 25, 2012. Based on these factors, it was determined that Cables Unlimited is no longer the primary beneficiary and has deconsolidated the operations of K&K as of January 25, 2012. As a result, the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at January 31, 2012 reflects a reduction in total assets of approximately $1.6 million with a reduction in liabilities of approximately $1.4 million. The effect of the deconsolidation did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated results of operations for the three months ended January 31, 2012.

 

 

 

As of October 31, 2011, K&K had assets of $1,627,346 ($66,926 in cash, $12,827 in other current assets, $1,476,925 in land and building, net and $70,668 in other assets) and liabilities of $1,413,730.
