Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) | Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In the opinion of management, the Company has made all necessary adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 11, 2021. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year, any other interim periods or any future year or period.
(b) | Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of electroCore and its wholly owned subsidiary. electroCore Australia, a VIE for which electroCore is the primary beneficiary, is also consolidated with the non-controlled equity presented as a non-controlling interest. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
(c) | Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include allowances for doubtful accounts, trade credits, rebates, co-payment assistance and sales returns, valuation of inventory, stock compensation, and contingencies.
(d) | Reclass of Statement of Cash Flows Activity
In order to reflect certain activity for the three months ended March 31, 2020 consistent with the March 31, 2021 presentation, this activity as reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows was reclassed for presentation purposes only. The repayments of note payable of $111,878, included under the caption Cash flows from financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was reclassed to Net cash used in operating activities on the line Accrued expense and other current liabilities within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Additionally, the decrease in operating lease liabilities of $108,581 included on the line Net noncash lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was reclassed to Operating lease liabilities within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
(e) | Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued an update to simplify the accounting for income taxes and improve consistent application by clarifying or amending existing guidance. This guidance is effective for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
