Independent Auditor’s Report

 

To the Stockholder of Collins Building & Contracting, Inc.

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the financial statements of Collins Building & Contracting, Inc., which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

 

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Collins Building & Contracting, Inc. as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of Collins Building & Contracting, Inc. and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Collins Building & Contracting, Inc.’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

 

F-2
 

 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

 

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

 

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Collins Building & Contracting, Inc.’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Collins Building & Contracting, Inc.’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control–related matters that we identified during the audit.

COLLINS BUILDING & CONTRACTING, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022 AND 2021

 

1. BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Collins Building & Contracting, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our”) was incorporated in the State of West Virginia on January 7, 2003. The Company is engaged in the construction industry specializing in reclamation projects throughout West Virginia under fixed price arrangements. In addition, the Company occasionally performs some private excavation and concrete projects. The Company also operates a rock quarry which sells various types of stone and also rents equipment out to a variety of customers. The Company also owns an RV park and collects rental income from a variety of customers. The Company grants credit to its customers, all of whom to date have been located in West Virginia.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Construction Contracts:

 

The Company recognizes revenue on construction contracts for financial reporting purposes over time; as performance obligations are satisfied, due to the continuous transfer of control to the customer. These services are sold under fixed-price contracts modified by executed change orders. Progress toward completion of the Company’s contracts is measured by the percentage of cost incurred to date compared to estimated total costs for each contract. This method is used because management considers total cost to be the best available measure of progress on contracts. Because of inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change significantly within the near term.

 

Contract Performance Obligations and Variable Considerations:

 

The Company’s construction contracts are generally accounted for as a single performance obligation. Contracts are considered to contain a single performance obligation if the promise to transfer individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts primarily because the Company provides a significant service of integrating a complex set of tasks and components into a single project or capability.

 

The nature of the Company’s business gives rise to variable consideration, including change order, claims, contract penalty provisions, and settlements that can either increase or decrease the transaction price, thereby increasing or reducing revenue. In most instances, contract modifications are for goods or services that are not distinct, and, therefore, are accounted for as part of the existing contract.

 

Variable consideration is estimated at the most likely amount that is expected to be earned. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Estimates of variable consideration are estimated based upon historical experience and known trends.

 

The Company recognizes adjustments in estimated profit on contracts under the cumulative catch-up method. Under this method, the impact of the adjustment on profit recorded to date is recognized in the period the adjustment is identified. Revenue and profit in future periods of contract performance is recognized using the adjusted estimate. If at any time the estimate of contract profitability indicates an anticipated loss on the contract, a provision for the entire loss is recognized in the period it is identified.

 

Cost and Expense Recognition:

 

Contract costs include all direct labor, materials, fuel, subcontractor, and equipment costs, and those indirect costs which are related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, etc. For construction contracts, costs are generally recognized as incurred.

 

Quarry and Rental Income:

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of stone and sand and rental revenue when control of these products and services is transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products and services. Sales and other taxes that the Company collects concurrent with revenue producing activities are excluded from revenue. The Company does not have any significant financing components as payment is received at or shortly after the point of sale.

 

For performance obligations related to the rental of equipment and real property as well as stone and sand sales, control transfers to the customer at a point in time. The Company’s principal terms of sale are FOB shipping point and FOB destination and the Company transfers control and records revenue for product sales either up on shipment or delivery to the customer, respectively.

 

The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue based on timing of satisfaction of performance obligations for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

 

   December 31, 2022   December 31, 2021 
         
Performance obligations satisfied at a point in time  $457,854   $346,514 
Performance obligations satisfied over time   3,322,850    4,957,041 
Total  $3,780,704   $5,303,555 

 

F-8
 

 

Performance Obligations and Variable Considerations

 

For performance obligations related to construction services, control transfer to the customer over time. These services are sold under fixed-price contracts modified by executed change orders. Revenue under fixed-price contacts is recognized as the work progresses and is measured by the percentage of cost incurred to date compared to estimated total costs for each contract.

 

For performance obligations related to the rental of equipment and real property as well as stone and sand sales, control transfers to the customer at a point in time. The Company’s principal terms of sale are FOB shipping point and FOB destination and the Company transfers control and records revenue for product sales either up on shipment or delivery to the customer, respectively.

 

The nature of the Company’s business gives rise to variable consideration, including change order, claims, contract penalty provisions, and settlements that can either increase or decrease the transaction price, thereby increasing or reducing revenue.

 

Variable consideration is estimated at the most likely amount that is expected to be earned. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Estimates of variable consideration are estimated based upon historical experience and known trends.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. From time to time, the Company’s cash account balances exceed the balances covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance System. The Company has never suffered a loss due to such excess balances.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from the balances outstanding at year end. The Company recorded bad debt expense of $6,324 during the year ended December 31, 2021 and none during the year ended December 31, 2022. Accounts receivable were $8,156 at December 31, 2022, $18,144 at December 31, 2021 and $42,921 at December 31, 2020. Based on management’s assessment, it has concluded that losses on balances outstanding at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 will be immaterial and, therefore, no allowances were recorded in the years ended December 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Equipment is carried at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to cost of services. Additions and betterments are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of equipment sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the current year’s earnings.

 

   December 31, 2022   December 31, 2021 
         
Buildings  $755,293   $755,293 
Rock quarry   85,343    68,103 
Office equipment and furniture   34,942    30,421 
Equipment   8,054,759    8,450,137 
Total property and equipment   8,930,337    9,303,954 
Less: Accumulated Depreciation   (6,609,237)   (6,238,349)
    2,321,100    3,065,605 
Depreciation expense  $834,324   $1,204,969 

 

F-9
 

 

The Company assesses the recoverability of its property, plant, and equipment by determining whether the depreciation of the assets over their remaining lives can be recovered through projected future cash flows generated by the assets. There were no assets identified for impairment.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

FASB ASC 825, “Financial Instruments” requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. Financial instruments held by the Company include, among others, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for assets and liabilities qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

Leases

 

FASB 842 requires the Company to determine whether a contract is, or contains, a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based upon the estimated present value of unpaid lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement in determining the present value of unpaid lease payments. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The standard had no impact on the Company as no leases were deemed to be long-term in nature.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company has elected Subchapter S Corporation status and the shareholder is taxed personally on the net profits or losses of the Company.

 

Subsequent Events

 

Management evaluates events occurring subsequent to the date of the financial statements in determining the accounting for and disclosure of transactions and events that affect the financial statements. Subsequent events have been evaluated through November 14, 2023, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

 

2. CONTRACT RECEIVABLES, ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

 

Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under contracts when the percentage-of-completion cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized and revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer.

 

Details of construction contracts in progress at December 31, 2022 and 2021 are as follows::

 

   December 31, 2022   December 31, 2021 
         
Costs incurred  $2,580,266   $2,963,966 
Estimated earnings   463,851    2,003,312

3. LINES OF CREDIT AND SUBSEQUENT CREDIT LINE MODIFICATIONS

 

The Company had a line of credit with a maximum available amount of $750,000 that was secured by all business assets and guaranteed by the stockholder. This credit line bore interest at the U.S. prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal and matured in July 2022. At December 31, 2021, there were no outstanding borrowings on this credit line.

 

The Company obtained an additional line of credit with a maximum available amount of $1,000,000 that was secured by various pieces of construction equipment and guaranteed by the stockholder.

These companies are all related through common ownership to the Company and all of them were formed in 2021 with little to no activity. These related companies are all signatory to this line of credit. This credit line bears interest at the lender’s prime rate and replaced the two credit lines noted above. The credit line matured on April 5, 2023, and was paid off during 2023. At December 31, 2022, $1,181,911 was outstanding on this credit line.

In March 2022, the installment loan with a balance of $153,952 noted above was fully forgiven by the bank under the Payroll Protection Act as it was deemed to have been in compliance with the rules and regulations required for forgiveness. Future maturities of this loan included $13,760 maturing in 2022.

 

5. OPERATING LEASES

 

The Company rents equipment for use on jobs, at the rock quarry and for shop used on an as needed basis under short-term rental agreements.

 

The Company had an operating lease agreement for one piece of equipment with a remaining lease term of seven months at December 31, 2022. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components of its lease as a single lease component. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

Under FASB ASC 842, which was effective for the Company as of January 1, 2022, an operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and liability is recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Generally, the implicit rate of interest in arrangements is not readily determinable and the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its credit rating would be. The operating lease ROU asset includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives.

 

The components of lease expense and supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the period are as follows:

The suit seeks damages for these unpaid wages, including benefit and appropriate penalties, costs and fees, however, no specific dollar among has been requested as of December 31, 2021.
