7. Concentrations of Risk

Credit Risk

 

At times, the Company’s cash balances held in financial institutions are in excess of federally insured limits. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of financial institutions and seeks to limit the amount of risk by selecting financial institutions with a strong credit standing. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash and cash equivalents.

 

The Buzztime network provides services to group viewing locations, generally restaurants, sports bars and lounges throughout North America. Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade receivables is limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Company’s customer base, and their dispersion across many different geographic locations. The Company performs credit evaluations of new customers and generally requires no collateral. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to provide for credit losses.

 

Significant Customer

 

For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company generated approximately $11,438,000 and $7,648,000, respectively, of total revenue from a national chain, Buffalo Wild Wings together with its franchisees. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, approximately $1,558,000 and $259,000, respectively, was included in accounts receivable from this customer. The Company received all of the $1,558,000 in February 2015.

 

Equipment Suppliers

 

The tablet used in the Company’s BEOND product line is manufactured by one unaffiliated third party. The Company currently purchases the BEOND tablets from an unaffiliated third party. The Company also currently purchases each piece of the tablet equipment (consisting of cases and charging trays for the tablet) from a different unaffiliated third party with respect to each piece of equipment. The Company currently purchases its Classic playmakers from an unaffiliated manufacturer located in Taiwan pursuant to a supply agreement, the term of which automatically renews for one year periods unless the agreement is terminated in advance of the automatic renewal by either party. The Company currently does not have an alternative manufacturer of the tablet or an alternative device to the tablet or alternative manufacturing sources for its tablet equipment or Classic playmakers. The Company does not currently expect to purchase additional Classic playmakers.

 

As of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, approximately $423,000 and $32,000, respectively, were included in accounts payable or accrued expenses for equipment suppliers.
