Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Old Market Capital Corporation and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. In addition, the Company consolidates entities that meet the definition of a variable interest entity ("VIE") for which it is the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the party who has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and who has an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. For consolidated entities that are less than wholly-owned, the third party's holding of the equity interest is presented as noncontrolling interests in the condensed consolidated statements of redeemable noncontrolling interest and shareholders' equity. The portion of net income (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interests is presented as net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are stated in U.S. dollars and are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). for interim financial information, with instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and with Article 8 of Regulation S-X thereunder Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes to the consolidated financial statements required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to ensure the information is not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2025. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2024, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 1, 2024.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, in accordance 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 the condensed consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates its estimates, assumptions, and judgments on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company's significant estimates and assumptions include the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, the recognition of deferred taxes, the determination of whether to consolidate variable interest entities, assessing the useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets including property, plant and equipment, goodwill, and intangible assets, and the related impairment analyses of each, and assessing the likelihood of adverse outcomes from pending litigation and regulatory matters. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Short-term highly liquid investments with a maturity date that was 3 months or less at the time of purchase are treated as cash equivalents. Amounts earned from cash equivalents are presented separately in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Accounts Receivable and Allowances for Credit Losses

Accounts Receivable and Allowances for Credit Losses

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts, net of allowance for credit losses, if applicable, and are unsecured and do not bear interest.

The allowance for credit losses is based on the probability of future collection under the current expect credited loss impairment model under ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Assets. Under the CECL impairment model, the Company determines its allowance by applying a loss-rate method based on an aging schedule using the Company’s historical loss rate. The Company also considers reasonable and supportable current information in determining its estimated loss rates, such as macroeconomic trends or other factors including customers’ credit risk and historical loss experience. The adequacy of the allowance is evaluated on a regular basis. Account balances are written off after all means of collection are exhausted and the balance is deemed uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries are credited to the allowance. Changes in the allowance are recorded as adjustments to bad debt expense in the period incurred.

Property, Plant, and Equipment, net

Property, Plant, and Equipment, net

Property, plant, and equipment is recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Additions and improvements that extend the economic useful life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the assets. Upon disposal of assets, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized currently in the

condensed consolidated statements of operations. Depreciation of property, plant, and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Asset

Equipment

 

5 - 7 years

Furniture and fixtures

 

5 - 7 years

Fiber plant

 

15 - 30 years

Towers

 

5 - 10 years

Acquisitions, Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Acquisitions, Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Upon acquisition of a company, the Company determines if the transaction is a business combination, which is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, once control is obtained from a business, the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, including amounts attributed to noncontrolling interests, are recorded at their estimated fair values. Any excess consideration over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill.

Certain assumptions, estimates, and judgments are used in determining the fair value of net assets acquired, including goodwill and intangible assets, as well as determining the allocation of goodwill to the reporting units. Accordingly, the Company may obtain the assistance of third-party valuation specialists for the valuation of significant tangible and intangible assets. The fair value estimates are based on available historical information and on future expectations and assumptions deemed reasonable by management but that are inherently uncertain. Measurement period adjustments are reflected at the time identified, up through the conclusion of the measurement period, which is the time at which all information for determination of the values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is received and is not to exceed one year from the acquisition date. The Company may record adjustments to the fair value of these tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Contract assets and liabilities are measured and recognized in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Additionally, uncertain tax positions and tax-related valuation allowances are initially recorded in connection with a business combination as of the acquisition date. The Company continues to collect information and reevaluates these estimates and assumptions periodically and records any adjustments to preliminary estimates to goodwill, provided the Company is within the measurement period. If outside of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Intangibles with definite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, which generally range from 5 to 21 years. Annually, or when certain triggering events occur, the Company assesses the useful lives of its intangibles with definite lives.

Goodwill and intangibles with indefinite lives are not amortized. The Company is required to test goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis, or more often if indicators of potential impairment exist due to triggering events, by determining if the carrying value of the Company's goodwill exceeds the estimated fair value of said goodwill. Indicators that could trigger an interim impairment test include, but are not limited to, underperformance relative to projected future operating results, significant negative industry or economic trends, an adverse change in regulatory environment, or pending adverse litigation.

In evaluating goodwill for impairment, the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50%) that the fair value of the Company's goodwill is less than its carrying value as of the assessment date. If no events, facts, or circumstances are identified during the qualitative assessment, the Company does not need to perform a quantitative impairment assessment. If the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the goodwill is less than its carrying value, then the Company will perform a quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of the goodwill with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of goodwill

exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill. During the periods presented, the Company did not have any impairment charges.

Assets Held-for-Sale and Discontinued Operations

Assets Held-for-Sale and Discontinued Operations

The Company classifies assets as held-for-sale if all held-for-sale criteria are met pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment. Criteria include management's commitment to sell the disposal group in its present condition and the sale being deemed probable of being completed within one year. Assets classified as held-for-sale are not depreciated and are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. The Company assesses the fair value of a disposal group, less any costs to sell, each reporting period it remains classified as held-for-sale and reports any subsequent changes as an adjustment to the carrying value of the disposal group, as long as the new carrying value does not exceed the initial carrying value of the disposal group.

When the Company has sold, or classified as held for sale, a business component that represents a strategic shift with significant effect on the Company's operations and financial results, it classifies that business component as discontinued operations and retrospectively presents discontinued operations for the comparable periods. The post-tax income, or loss, of discontinued operations are shown as a single line on the face of the statement of operations. The disposal of the discontinued operation would also result in a gain or loss upon final disposal.

As a result of the sale of finance receivables and repossessed assets to Westlake Financial, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the activity related to the sale of the assets of the consumer finance segment as discontinued operations. The Company determined that the finance receivables met the held-for-sale criteria as of November 1, 2023 and the consumer finance segment met the discontinued operations criteria during the six months ended September 30, 2024. The sale of the finance receivables and repossessed assets of the consumer finance segment was completed on April 26, 2024. See Note 12 for additional information regarding the activities of discontinued operations.

Consolidated Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated Variable Interest Entities

VIEs are entities in which (1) equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or (2) do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidations (“ASC 810”), the Company consolidates a VIE when it is determined it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The Company performs an evaluation as to whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE upon its initial involvement with the VIE using the following criteria: (1) the Company has the power to make decisions that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE and (2) the Company has the obligation to absorb the losses or the right to receive benefits, that in either case, could potentially be significant to the VIE.

In accordance with ASC 810, the Red Bug Entities are VIEs as they do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entities to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company consolidates the Red Bug Entities as it is considered the primary beneficiary as it has the power to direct the activities of the Red Bug Entities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and has the obligation to absorb the losses or benefits of their financial performance.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company has consolidated approximately $3.6 million, $0 million, and $3.1 million of the Red Bug Entities' assets, liabilities, and noncontrolling interest, respectively, within the condensed consolidated balance sheet. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized a net loss of approximately $7 and $8 thousand within the condensed consolidated statement of operations, respectively.

Leases

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and classifies its leases at commencement. Operating leases are presented as right-of-use ("ROU") assets, and the corresponding lease liabilities are included in operating lease liabilities, current and operating lease liabilities in the Company's balance sheets. ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset, and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation for lease payments in exchange for the ability to use the asset for the duration of the lease term.

ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date or acquisition date and determined using the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses a discount rate based on a benchmark approach to derive an appropriate incremental borrowing rate to discount remaining lease payments. The Company benchmarked itself against other companies of similar credit ratings and comparable quality and derived imputed rates for lease term lengths ranging 3 to 8 years. The lease term may include options to extend when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. In addition, the Company does not recognize short term leases that have a term of twelve months or less as ROU assets or lease liabilities for all asset classes. The Company recognizes operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company has lease agreements which contain both lease and non-lease components, which it has elected to account for as a single lease component for all asset classes when the payments are fixed. As such, variable lease payments, including those not dependent on an index or rate, such as real estate taxes, common area maintenance, and other costs that are subject to fluctuation from period to period are not included in lease measurement.

Upon the acquisition of Amplex on June 15, 2024, the Company recorded lease liabilities and corresponding right of use assets of approximately $502 thousand, based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments for leases existing upon adoption of the new lease standard and other adjustments to the opening balance of right of use assets. The Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of payments. See Note 8 for additional detail on the Company's leasing arrangements.

Investments in Debt Securities

Investments in Debt Securities

Old Market Capital Corporation and Amplex entered into a Term Loan Agreement (the "Term Loan Agreement") entered into on February 15, 2024, as amended by the First Amendment dated April 26, 2024 and later amended by the Second Amendment dated June 15, 2024, pursuant to which Old Market Capital Corporation agreed to make one or more term loan advances ("Term Loan Advances" or "Term Loans") to Amplex in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $900 thousand. The Borrower agrees to make monthly payments of interest on each Term Loan Advance, commencing on March 1, 2024, and on the first day of each month thereafter. No payments of principal are due until the earlier of a) closing of a share purchase agreement (the "Transaction Closing Date") or b) in the event of terminating the negotiation of a share purchase agreement ("Triggering Event"), the first anniversary of the date of initial Term Loan Advance (the "Term Loan Maturity Date"). All unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loan Advance is due and payable in cash on the Term Loan Maturity Date. Amounts may be prepaid without penalty by giving five days written notice to the Lender. Interest is accrued on Term Loan Advances at an interest rate of 12.5% per annum.

Per the amended terms of the Term Loan Agreement, at the Transaction Closing Date, the outstanding debt from the Term Loan Advances shall automatically be converted into the number of common shares of Amplex determined by dividing the outstanding debt from the Term Loan Advances by the share purchase price (the "Converted Shares"). The Term Loans were converted upon the Transaction Closing Date as of June 15, 2024 (a total of approximately $754 thousand, comprised of $750 thousand of principal and $4 thousand of accrued interest) at the share purchase price of $1,792.55 per share into 421 shares of Amplex common stock.

As of March 31, 2024, the Term Loan Advance receivable was accounted for as an available-for-sale debt security and fair valued using "Level 3" inputs, which consist of unobservable inputs and reflect management's estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset. The Company's Term Loan Advances were determined to be available-for-sale debt securities under ASC 320, Investments - Debt Securities. The Company estimated the fair value of the Term Loan Advances as of March 31, 2024 using a probability-weighted scenario-based model, which uses as inputs the estimated fair value of the Borrower's common stock, the estimated volatility of the Borrower's common stock, the time to expiration of the Term Loan Advances, the discount rate, the stated interest rate compared to the current market rate, and the risk-free interest rate for a period that approximates the time to expiration. The estimated fair value of the Borrower's common stock was based on the estimated closing price of the Amplex shares to the Company at the time of issuance. The estimated volatility of the Borrower's common stock was based on the observed volatility range of comparable publicly traded companies. The time to expiration was based on the probability of conversion prior to the contractual maturity date. The risk-free interest rate was determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement for time periods approximately equal to the time to expiration.

Between April 1, 2024 and June 1, 2024 the Company made Term Loan Advances to Amplex in the aggregate amount of $450 thousand. The Term Loan Advances were to be repaid at the earlier of a) the closing of the share purchase agreement and b) the first anniversary of the initial term loan advance date if the negotiations of the share purchase agreement are terminated. As mentioned above, the Term Loan Advances with a total outstanding principal and accrued interest of $754 thousand was converted into 421 shares of Amplex common stock from a selling shareholder at the share purchase price of $1,792.55 per share in conjunction with the closing of the share purchase agreement.

Dissenting Shares & Domestication

Dissenting Shares & Domestication

On November 22, 2023, OMCC, formerly known as Nicholas Financial, Inc., filed the initial Form S-4 related to the re-domestication (continuation) and Loan Portfolio Sale. Shareholders had the right to dissent to the continuation and the Loan Portfolio Sale under Section 309 of the British Columbia Business Corporations Act (“BCBCA”) (“Dissent Right”). Dissenting shareholders had the right to be paid the fair value of their shares (“Dissenting Shares”) under Section 245 of the BCBCA. Fair value was determined as of the close of business on the day before the Loan Portfolio Sale was approved by shareholders.

On April 15, 2024 (“Approval Date”), the stockholders of OMCC approved the re-domestication of the Company from Canada to Delaware and the Loan Portfolio Sale. There were 652,249 Dissenting Shares exercised in accordance with the Dissent Right. The Company determined the Dissenting Shares are within the scope of ASC 480-10 as they are considered mandatorily redeemable as of the Approval Date and as such were classified as liabilities. Liability-classified instruments are initially measured at fair value (or allocated value). Subsequent changes in fair value are recognized through earnings for as long as the instruments continue to be classified as a liability. As of April 15, 2024, the Company determined the fair value of the Dissenting Shares was $4.5 million based on the Company’s stock price of $6.94.

On September 5, 2024, the Company settled in cash with the dissenting shareholders to repurchase 652,249 Dissenting Shares at a price per share of $8.63, or $5.6 million. The Dissenting Shares were retained by the Company to be included within treasury stock. In conjunction with the cash settlement, the Company recognized a loss on dissenting shareholders’ liability of $1.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024, and derecognized the dissenting shareholders' liability. In addition, the repurchase of the Dissenting Shares (which were retained by the Company) were included within treasury stock as of the date of repurchase.

The following table summarizes the change in the Dissenting Shares liability measured at fair value, on a recurring basis, for which Level 3 inputs have been used to determine fair value:

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement ("ASC 820"), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the

assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are required to be recorded at fair value either on a recurring or nonrecurring basis and are presented with Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, such as Term Loan Advances, dissenting shareholders’ liability and contingent liability. The Company's non-financial assets such as property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost. Fair value adjustments are made to these non-financial assets, on a nonrecurring basis, during the period an impairment charge is recognized, as applicable.

Certain of the Company's financial instruments are carried at fair value and are presented within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, such as money market funds included within cash and cash equivalents on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. In addition, the carrying amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, materials and supplies, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

The valuation hierarchy is composed of three levels. The classification within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels within the valuation hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 - Assets and liabilities with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market exchanges. Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs to the fair value measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 - Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists for the assets or liabilities.

The following tables presents information about the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value, on a recurring basis, consistent with the fair value hierarchy provisions:

Loss Contingencies

Loss Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued that may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings, disputes, or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the condensed consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases along with operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, if any. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

As part of the recent acquisition of Amplex by Old Market Capital Corporation, goodwill was recorded on the books. The goodwill recorded on the books as a result of the acquisition of Amplex through a stock purchase does not have favorable tax treatment. It will not be amortized or deducted for tax purposes, and the tax basis of the acquired assets remains unchanged. This results in a permanent book-tax difference when the goodwill is recognized for financial reporting purposes but not for tax purposes.

The Company recognizes tax benefits from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements from any such position would be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. It is the Company’s policy to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any uncertain tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. There were no uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2024 or 2023.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various state jurisdictions, and Canada. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income tax expense in the period that includes the enactment date.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates revenue primarily from the following sources:

1.
Wireless internet services – The Company offers these services to residential and commercial customers under standard monthly plans for 12-month periods. Contracts standard terms and conditions state a penalty for early termination; however, the Company normally waives this penalty. Standard monthly plans vary in price according to the amount of bandwidth provided and include installation and equipment. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2024, these services totaled approximately $1.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively.
2.
Fiber internet services – The Company offers these services to residential and commercial customers under standard monthly plans for 12-month periods. Fiber optic internet services provide higher speeds than wireless internet. Contracts are typically cancellable without penalty. Standard monthly plans vary in price according to the amount of bandwidth provided and include installation and equipment. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2024, these services totaled approximately $773 thousand and $879 thousand, respectively.
3.
Other – These services include primarily voice over IP (“VOIP”) telephone services to residential and commercial customers under 12-month periods. Contracts are typically cancellable without penalty. Standard monthly plans vary based on the features offered. Customers may purchase the equipment from the Company or a third-party vendor. In addition, the Company offers video streaming services through third-party providers. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2024, these services totaled approximately $421 thousand and $485 thousand, respectively.

In accordance with ASC 606 “Revenue Recognition”, the Company recognizes revenue from contracts with customers using a five-step model, which is described below:

1.
identify the customer contract;
2.
identify performance obligations that are distinct;
3.
determine the transaction price;
4.
allocate the transaction price to the distinct performance obligations; and
5.
recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied.

Identify the customer contract

A customer contract is generally identified when there is approval and commitment from both the Company and its customer, the rights have been identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability is probable. Specifically, the Company obtains written/electronic signatures on contracts and purchase orders, if said purchase orders are issued in the normal course of business by the customer.

Identify performance obligations that are distinct

A performance obligation is a promise by the Company to provide a distinct good or service or a series of distinct goods or services. A good or service that is promised to a customer is distinct if the customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer, and a company’s promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.

Determine the transaction price

The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer, excluding sales taxes that are collected on behalf of government agencies.

Allocate the transaction price to distinct performance obligations

The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling prices (“SSP”) of the goods or services being provided to the customer. The Company’s contracts may contain multiple performance obligations, for which the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately, if they are distinct. The standalone selling price reflects the price the Company would charge for a specific piece of equipment or service if it was sold separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers.

Recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied

Revenues from wireless and fiber internet, VOIP services, and video streaming services are recognized ratably as performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a promised product or service to a customer. Revenues from equipment sales are recognized when control transfers to the customer, which occurs upon delivery.

Customers are billed in advance for services to be provided in the upcoming month. Once billed, payment from customers is due 30 days from the invoice date. The Company’s agreements with its customers do not provide for any refunds for services or products and therefore no specific reserve for such is maintained.

Sales and other taxes the Company collects concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

The Company fulfills obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring products and services in exchange for consideration from the customer. There are no contract assets related to performance under the contract. The Company is contractually entitled to invoice in advance for services to be provided in the future. Accordingly, accounts receivable are recorded when the customer has been billed or the right to consideration is unconditional. The Company recognizes deferred revenue when consideration has been billed or received in advance of the Company’s satisfaction of its performance obligation(s).

In accordance with ASC 606-10-50-13, the Company is required to include disclosure on its remaining performance obligations as of the end of the current reporting period. Due to the nature of the Company’s contracts, these reporting requirements are not applicable. The majority of the Company’s remaining contracts meet one of the exemptions defined in ASC 606-10-50-14 through 606-10-50-14A, i.e., performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less.

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting

The Company reports operating segments in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”). Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by their chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assesses performance. ASC 280 requires that a public enterprise report a measure of segment profit or loss, certain specific revenue and expense items, segment assets, information about the way operating segments were determined and other items.

The Company has two reportable segments: consumer finance and telecommunications. The consumer finance company segment is reported within discontinued operations for the periods presented.

Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

The Company classifies noncontrolling interests with redemption features that are not solely within the control of the Company within temporary equity on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A, SEC Staff Announcement: Classification and Measurement of Redeemable Securities (“ASC 480-10-S99-3A”). The noncontrolling interest was recorded outside of shareholders’ equity because the noncontrolling interest provided the holder with put rights which allows the holder to compel the Company to purchase Amplex common stock at $1,792.55 per share at any time following the fifth anniversary of the closing date of the Amplex acquisition but prior to the fifteenth anniversary of the closing date of the Amplex acquisition. During this time period, the put option may be exercised by the holder at any time after 90 days prior written notice, which is considered not solely within the Company’s control. The Company determined the put option is not within the scope of ASC 480-10 to be recorded as a liability at fair value and will not subsequently adjust for changes in fair value. The Company adjusts redeemable noncontrolling interests for the portion of net loss attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interests and for the change in the carrying amount of redeemable noncontrolling interest for the incremental value the NCI holder may ultimately be entitled to. When the redemption amount of redeemable noncontrolling interest exceeds the fair value, the Company has made an accounting policy election to reflect as a deemed dividend the entire change in the redemption amount (see Note 5). For the three and six months ended September 30, 2024, the change in the redemption amount was deemed immaterial. As of September 30, 2024, the book value of this interest was approximately $15.7 million and was recorded as a redeemable noncontrolling interest in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

During the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Company determined that the consumer finance company segment met the criteria for discontinued operations classification. As a result, the Company made reclassifications to include certain prior year amounts within discontinued operations and assets held for sale in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, and statements of cash flows. See Note 12 Discontinued Operations for further details.
