As of December 31, 2022, a condensed consolidated balance sheet was prepared based on audited annual financial statements but did not include all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of routine recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of its financial position as of September 30, 2023, as well as results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, as well as cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022.

Effective May 1, 2023, the Company effected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of the common stock. All per-share numbers reflect the 1-for-20 reverse stock split. We have retroactively applied the reverse split throughout this quarterly report to all periods presented. The accounting policies of Vislink have not materially changed since December 31, 2022.

Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), the Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company has eliminated all intercompany accounts and transactions upon consolidating our subsidiaries. Segment Reporting The Company identifies operating segments as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the operating decision-makers, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s decision-making group is the senior executive management team. The Company and the decision-making group view the Company’s operations and manage its business as one operating segment with different product offerings.

Allowance for Credit Losses Change in accounting principles In June 2016, the FASB established Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU) No. 2016-13, which requires a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates, including accounts receivable. The standard replaces the existing incurred credit loss model with the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) model. It is required to measure credit losses based on the Company’s estimate of expected losses rather than incurred losses, which generally results in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses.

The Company completed its assessment of the new standard and did not adjust the opening balance of retained earnings relating to its trade receivables. The Company writes off receivables once it is determined that they are no longer collectible, as local laws allow. Asset Acquisitions The Company evaluates acquisitions of assets and other similar transactions to assess whether or not the transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or asset acquisition by first applying a screen test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If so, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. If not, further determination is required as to whether or not the Company has acquired inputs and processes that can create outputs that would meet the definition of a business. Significant judgment is required in applying the screen test to determine whether an acquisition is a business combination or an acquisition of assets. The accounting for asset acquisitions falls under the guidance of Topic 805, Business Combinations, specifically Subtopic 805-50. For asset acquisitions, a cost accumulation model is used to determine an asset acquisition’s cost. Assets acquired are based on their cost generally allocated to the assets on a relative fair value basis. Direct acquisition-related costs are included in the cost of the acquired assets.

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. These estimates also affect the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the useful lives of property, plant, and equipment, the useful lives of right-of-use assets, the useful lives of intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets, allowance for accounts receivable doubtful accounts, allowance for inventory obsolescence reserve, allowance for deferred tax assets, valuation of warranty reserves, contingent consideration liabilities, and the accrual of potential liabilities. Actual results could differ from estimates, and any such differences may be material to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Change in accounting principles

In June 2016, the FASB established Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU) No. 2016-13, which requires a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates, including accounts receivable.

The standard replaces the existing incurred credit loss model with the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) model. It is required to measure credit losses based on the Company’s estimate of expected losses rather than incurred losses, which generally results in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses. Under ASC 326, the Company evaluates specific criteria, including aging and historical write-offs, the current economic condition of customers, and future economic conditions of countries utilizing a consumption index to determine the appropriate allowance for credit losses. The Company completed its assessment of the new standard and did not adjust the opening balance of retained earnings relating to its trade receivables. The Company writes off receivables once it is determined that they are no longer collectible, as local laws allow.

Asset Acquisitions

The Company evaluates acquisitions of assets and other similar transactions to assess whether or not the transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or asset acquisition by first applying a screen test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If so, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. If not, further determination is required as to whether or not the Company has acquired inputs and processes that can create outputs that would meet the definition of a business. Significant judgment is required in applying the screen test to determine whether an acquisition is a business combination or an acquisition of assets.

The accounting for asset acquisitions falls under the guidance of Topic 805, Business Combinations, specifically Subtopic 805-50. For asset acquisitions, a cost accumulation model is used to determine an asset acquisition’s cost. Assets acquired are based on their cost generally allocated to the assets on a relative fair value basis. Direct acquisition-related costs are included in the cost of the acquired assets.

Recently Issued Accounting Principles

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Other recent accounting standards 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 consolidated financial statements.
