Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION Overview Pioneer Power Solutions, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (referred to herein as the “Company,” “Pioneer,” “we,” “our” and “us”) manufacture, sell and service a broad range of specialty electrical transmission, distribution and on-site power generation equipment for applications in the utility, industrial, commercial and backup power markets. The Company is headquartered in Fort Lee, New Jersey and operates from twelve (12) additional locations in the U.S., Canada and Mexico for manufacturing, centralized distribution, engineering, sales and administration. We have two reportable segments as defined in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 2, 2018: Transmission and Distribution Solutions (“T&D Solutions”) and Critical Power Solutions (“Critical Power”). Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the SEC and reflect the accounts of the Company as of March 31, 2018. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading to the reader. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with respect to the interim consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for a year-end balance sheet. All dollar amounts (except share and per share data) presented in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements are stated in thousands of dollars, unless otherwise noted. Amounts may not foot due to rounding. These unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pioneer and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. During the fourth quarter of 2017, as part of the Company’s review of strategic alternatives, the Company made approved efforts to sell its switchgear business unit operated as Pioneer Custom Electric Products, Inc. (“PCEP”). On May 2, 2018, Pioneer Custom Electric Products Corp. (“PCEP”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Pioneer Power Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with CleanSpark, Inc. (“CleanSpark”), pursuant to which PCEP will sell certain assets (the “Asset Sale”) comprising the PCEP business to CleanSpark (the “Purchased Assets”). No debt or significant liabilities are being assumed by CleanSpark in the Asset Sale. Operating results for PCEP, which have been previously included in the T&D Solutions Segment, have now been reclassified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See Note 5 – Discontinued Operations in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I of this Form 10-Q. Unless noted otherwise, discussions in these notes pertain to our continuous operations. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the risk factors and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company and its subsidiaries included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
