NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Significant accounting policies disclosed therein have not changed since our audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our June 30, 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as noted below.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications, which have no effect on net loss, have been made in the prior period financial statements, specifically the recognition of the preferred share dividend as a non-cash transaction at March 31, 2015.
Trade Receivables
We generally charge-off trade receivables that are more than 120 days outstanding as bad-debt expense, unless management believes the amount to be collectable. The charge-off amounts are included in general and administrative expenses. As of March 31, 2016 and 2015, the reserve for uncollectible accounts was $-0- and $7,556, respectively.
Stock Based-Compensation Expense
We account for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (ASC 718). Our financial statements as of and for the quarters ended March 31, 2015 and 2016 reflect the impact of ASC 718. Stock-based compensation expense related to director, employee or consultant options recognized under ASC 718 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was $56,238 and $18,638, respectively.
ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods in our Statement of Operations. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in our Statements of Operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 assumes all awards will vest; therefore no reduction has been made for estimated forfeitures. We have awarded some options with a performance requirement and no amounts will be recorded until the requirement is met.
Basic and Fully Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Basic and Fully Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Our outstanding stock options and warrants and shares issuable upon conversion of outstanding convertible notes have been excluded from the basic and fully diluted net loss per share calculation, except for the three months ended March 31, 2016. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 only warrants and options “in the money” have been included in the dilutive calculation, which resulted in zero additional weighted average shares. We excluded 4,300,000 and 2,924,000 common stock equivalents for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, because they are anti-dilutive.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
Issued
In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, “Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20),” which eliminates the concept of extraordinary items. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2015. The new guidance is to be applied prospectively but may also be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. We expect to adopt the provisions of this new guidance on July 1, 2016. We do not expect the adoption of the new provisions to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes,” requiring all deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any related valuation allowance, to be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The classification change for all deferred taxes as noncurrent simplifies entities’ processes as it eliminates the need to separately identify the net current and net noncurrent deferred tax asset or liability in each jurisdiction and allocate valuation allowances. We do not expect the adoption of the new provisions to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”. Under ASU 2015-11, inventory will be measured at the “lower of cost and net realizable value” and options that currently exist for “market value” will be eliminated. The standard defines net realizable value as the “estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation.” No other changes were made to the current guidance on inventory measurement. ASU 2015-11 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted and should be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2015-11 will have on its financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases", ("ASU 2016-02") which amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. ASU 2016-02 will become effective for public companies during interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on the Company's financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." ASU 2016-09 amends several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. If early adopted, an entity must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on the Company's financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” ASU 2014-09 completes the joint effort by the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) to improve financial reporting by creating common revenue recognition guidance for GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing.” ASU 2016-10 clarifies the implementation guidance on identifying performance obligations. These ASUs apply to all companies that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services. These ASUs are effective for public entities for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, but not before interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Entities have the choice to apply these ASUs either retrospectively to each reporting period presented or by recognizing the cumulative effect of applying these standards at the date of initial application and not adjusting comparative information. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-10 on the Company's financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC, did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Related Party Transactions
Amerityre’s immediate past Chairman of the Board, Timothy L. Ryan, is also the principal owner of Rhino Rubber LLC, a manufacturing and distribution company for solid industrial tires and wheels. As of December 2015, with Mr. Ryan’s exit from our Board of Directors, he was no longer a director of the Company and all receivables outstanding to Rhino Rubber LLC have been reflected as trade accounts receivable.
We currently distribute directly from our manufacturing facility in Boulder City, Nevada only. In the past we also distributed from an independent, contracted warehouse in Ravenna, Ohio. This contract distribution point was unable to support customer requirements, became ineffective and stopped operations in the second quarter of 2014. In order to keep commitments to customers and keep revenue growth positive, distribution and other related services were transferred to Rhino Rubber in Akron, Ohio. The Company paid $600 for monthly warehousing fees inclusive of freight, shipping and labor for mounting services through October 31, 2015. Effective October 31, 2015 we closed the Akron, Ohio distribution point and customers are serviced from our Boulder City location.
