Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, the Company has omitted footnote disclosures that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read together with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nortech Systems Incorporated and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. All dollar amounts are stated in thousands of U.S. dollars. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us 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 our condensed consolidated financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during each reporting period. Significant items subject to estimates and assumptions include the net realizable value reserves for inventories, accounts receivable allowances, realizability of deferred tax assets and long-lived asset recovery. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Recently Issued New Accounting Standards In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The ASU enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements disclosures. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU No. 2024-03”), which requires disaggregated expense information in the notes to the financial statements related to purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization and selling expenses for each statement of earnings line item that contains those expenses. ASU No. 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The guidance is to be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively; this ASU allows for early adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements disclosures. In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (“ASU No. 2025-05”), which reduces the complexity of applying credit losses to current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606 (revenue from contracts with customers). ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements disclosures. Inventories Inventories are as follows: SCHEDULE OF INVENTORIES

Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The weighted average remaining amortization period of our intangible assets is 4.3 years. Of the patents value as of September 30, 2025, $76 are being amortized and $84 are in process and a patent has not yet been issued. Amortization expense of finite life intangible assets for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $5 and $4, respectively. Amortization expense of finite life intangible assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $14 and $84, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, estimated future annual amortization expense (except projects in process) related to these assets is as follows: SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED FUTURE ANNUAL AMORTIZATION EXPENSE
Year |  | Amount |
Remainder of 2025 |  | $ | 5 |
2026 |  |  | 18 |

Property and Equipment The sale of the Blue Earth manufacturing facility and related land was completed in the three months ended September 30, 2025, for $500, which approximated book value and therefore, no gain or loss was recorded on the sale. During the third quarter of 2025, in light of our sustained low stock price, we performed a Step 1 recoverability test in accordance with U.S. GAAP for our long-lived assets. Based on our assessment of undiscounted future cash flows, we concluded that the carrying amounts of our asset group are recoverable, and therefore, no impairment was recognized at this stage. However, as a result of the sale of our Blue Earth facility in July 2025, we are now closer to meeting the criteria for a Step 2 impairment analysis, which involves estimating the fair value of the asset group. If future developments, including changes in market conditions or operational forecasts, result in a decline in fair value below carrying amounts, this may lead to the recognition of an impairment loss in subsequent periods.
