Inventory Valuation

For annual periods, the Company values inventory at the lower of cost on a first-in-first out basis or market. The Company does not take physical inventories at interim quarterly reporting periods. As such, approximately 50% of the inventory value at March 31, 2018 has been estimated using a gross profit percentage based on sales of previous periods to the net sales of the current period, as management believes that the gross profit percentage on these items are materially consistent from period to period. The remainder of the inventory value at March 31, 2018 is estimated based on the Company's standard cost perpetual inventory system, as management believes the perpetual system computed value for these items provides a better estimate of value for that inventory. Adjustments to reconcile the annual physical inventory to the Company’s books are treated as changes in accounting estimates and are recorded in the fourth quarter. Inventories consist of the following at:

 

    March 31,   December 31,
    2018   2017
    (unaudited)    
Raw Materials   $ 5,290,000     $ 5,346,000  
Work In Progress     19,065,000       19,947,000  
Finished Goods     10,930,000       10,122,000  
Inventory Reserve     (4,398,000 )     (4,274,000 )
Total Inventory   $ 30,887,000     $ 31,141,000  

 

 

Credit and Concentration Risks

There were three customers that represented 73.1% of total sales, and three customers that represented 60.3% of total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. This is set forth in the table below.

 

Customer   Percentage of Sales
    March 2018   March 2017
     (Unaudited)    (Unaudited)
1   34.5   18.9
2   28.6   21.5
3   10.0   *
4   **   19.9

 

*Customer was less than 10% of sales at March 31, 2017.

**Customer was less than 10% of sales at March 31, 2018. 

 

There were three customers that represented 71.9% of gross accounts receivable and three customers that represented 68.7% of gross accounts receivable at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. This is set forth in the table below.

 

Customer   Percentage of Receivables
    March 2018   December 2017
    (Unaudited)  
1   43.2   41.9
2   16.3   14.6
3   12.4   *
4   **   12.2

 

*Customer was less than 10% of gross accounts receivable at December 31, 2017.

**Customer was less than 10% of gross accounts receivable at March 31, 2018.

 

During the year, the Company had occasionally maintained balances in its bank accounts that were in excess of the FDIC limit. The Company has not experienced any losses on these accounts.

 

The Company has several key sole-source suppliers of various parts that are important for one or more of its products. These suppliers are its only source for such parts and, therefore, in the event any of them were to go out of business or be unable to provide parts for any reason, its business could be severely harmed.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Potentially dilutive shares, using the treasury stock method, are included in the diluted per-share calculations for all periods when the effect of their inclusion is dilutive.

 

The following is a reconciliation of the denominators of basic and diluted earnings per share computations:

 

Three Months Ended

    March 31, 2018 (Unaudited)   March 31, 2017 (Unaudited)
         
Weighted average shares outstanding used to compute basic earnings per share     26,116,262       7,650,165  
Effect of dilutive stock options and warrants            
Weighted average shares outstanding and dilutive securities used to compute dilutive earnings per share     26,616,262       7,650,165  

 

The following securities have been excluded from the calculation as the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares:

 

Three Months Ended

    March 31, 2018   March 31, 2017
    (Unaudited)   (Unaudited)
Stock Options     354,000       513,000  
Warrants     1,480,000       520,000  
      1,834,000       1,033,000  

 

 

The following securities have been excluded from the calculation even though the exercise price was less than the average market price of the common shares because the effect of including these potential shares was anti-dilutive due to the net loss incurred during that period:

 

    March 31, 2018   March 31, 2017
    (Unaudited)   (Unaudited)
Convertible Preferred Stock     -       2,517,000  
Stock Options     695,000       3,000  
Warrants     480,000       321,000  
      1,175,000       2,841,000  

 

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC 718, "Compensation – Stock Compensation." Under the fair value recognition provision of the ASC, stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options and warrants granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Stock based compensation amounted to $83,000 and $73,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and was included in operating expenses on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

 

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition cost of businesses over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. The goodwill amount of $272,000 March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 relates to the acquisitions of NTW $163,000 and ECC $109,000.

 

Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested at least annually for impairment, or if circumstances occur that more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount.

 

The Company has determined that there has been no impairment of goodwill at March 31, 2018.

  

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 supersedes existing revenue recognition guidance, including ASC 605-35, Revenue Recognition - Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts, and outlines a single set of comprehensive principles for recognizing revenue under U.S. GAAP. Among other things, it requires companies to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time. On July 9, 2015, the FASB approved a one year deferral of the effective date of ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We intend to adopt the New Revenue Standard effective January 1, 2018. 

The new guidance allows for two transition methods in application - (i) retrospective to each prior reporting period presented, or (ii) prospective with the cumulative effect of adoption recognized on January 1, 2018 (also known as the modified retrospective approach). The Company is still assessing which transition method to adopt. This guidance requires additional disclosures of the amount by which each financial statement line item affected in the current reporting period during 2019 as compared to the guidance that was in effect before the change, and an explanation of the reasons for the significant changes.

The Company currently recognizes the majority of its revenues based on shipment of products (at a point in time). Currently, some contracts the Company enters into with customers are accounted for on a percentage of completion basis. For contracts with a significant amount of development and/or requiring the delivery of a minimal number of units, revenue and profit are recognized using the percentage-of-completion cost-to-cost method to measure progress. For contracts that require the Company to produce a substantial number of similar items without a significant level of development, the Company currently records revenue and profit using the percentage-of-completion units-of-delivery method as the basis for measuring progress on the contract.

Under ASC 606, revenue will be recognized as the customer obtains control of the goods and services promised in the contract (i.e., performance obligations). We may also have more performance obligations in our contracts under ASC 606, which may impact the timing of recording sales and operating profit, including those where sales recognition is deferred pending the incurrence of costs.

The Company has not completed its assessment of the effects of the new revenue standard, and has not determined whether adopting ASU 2014-09 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” Among other things, in the amendments in ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (1) A lease liability, which is a lessee‘s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) A right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted upon issuance. Lessees (for capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements. The Company has been gathering the lease agreement data and has begun to analyze the financial impact to the consolidated financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2016-10”). The core principle of the guidance in Topic 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in ASU 2016-10 affect the guidance in ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which is not yet effective. The effective date and transition requirements of ASU 2016-10 are the same as the effective date and transition requirements of ASU 2014-09. They are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of these amendments on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow -Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients. The amendments do not change the core revenue recognition principle in Topic 606. The amendments provide clarifying guidance in certain narrow areas and add some practical expedients. These amendments are effective at the same date that Topic 606 is effective. Topic 606 is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods therein (i.e., January 1, 2018, for a calendar year entity). Topic 606 is effective for nonpublic entities one year later. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of the amendments to Topic 606 and these amendments on its consolidated financial statements.

In September 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-13, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Leases (Topic 840), and Leases (Topic 842),” which provides additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842). The revenue standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. This update will be effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of these amendments on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-05, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“ASU 2018-05”). ASU 2018-05 adds various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of the December 2017 SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB No. 118”), which was effective immediately. SAB No.118 provides for a provisional one year measurement period for entities to finalize their accounting for certain income tax effects related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The adoption of ASU 2018-05 had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2018. See Note 10, Income Taxes, for disclosures related to this amended guidance.

The Company does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
