Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Evans & Sutherland Computer Corporation and subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company" or "E&S") have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and notes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP").  This report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of comprehensive income (loss), and statements of cash flows reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  The results of operations for the three and six months ended July 1, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2016.  The Company operates on a calendar year with the first three fiscal quarters ending on the last Friday of the thirteenth week in the quarter.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Sales include revenues from system hardware and the related integrated software, database products and service contracts.  The following methods are used to determine revenue recognition:

 

Percentage of Completion. In arrangements that are longer in term and require significant production, modification or customization, revenue is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method.  In applying this method,  the Company utilizes cost-to-cost methodology whereby it estimates the percent complete by calculating the ratio of costs incurred (consisting of material, labor and subcontracting costs, as well as an allocation of indirect costs) for each contract to its total anticipated costs for that contract.   This ratio is then utilized to determine the amount of gross profit earned based on the Company's estimate of total gross profit at completion for each contract.  The Company routinely reviews estimates related to percentage-of-completion contracts and adjusts for changes in the period the revisions are made.  Billings on uncompleted percentage-of-completion contracts may be greater than or less than incurred costs and estimated earnings and are recorded as an asset or liability in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

In those arrangements where software is a significant component of the contract, the Company uses the percentage-of-completion method as described above.

 

Completed Contract. Contract arrangements which typically require a relatively short period of time to complete the production, modification, and customization of products are accounted for using the completed contract method.  Accordingly, revenue is recognized upon delivery of the completed product, provided persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.

 

Multiple Element Arrangements.  Some contracts include multiple elements.  Significant deliverables in such arrangements commonly include various hardware components of the Company's visual display systems, domes, show content and various service and maintenance elements.  Revenue earned on elements such as products, services and maintenance contracts are allocated to each element based on the relative fair values of the elements.  Relative fair values of elements are generally determined based on actual and estimated selling price.  Delivery times of such contracts typically occur within a three to six-month time period.

 

Other.  Other revenue consists primarily of amounts earned under maintenance contracts that are generally sold as a single element.  Revenue from product maintenance contracts, including separately priced extended warranty contracts, is deferred and recognized over the period of performance under the contract.

 

Anticipated Losses.  For contracts with anticipated losses at completion, a provision is recorded when the loss is probable.  After an anticipated loss is recorded, subsequent revenues and cost of sales are recognized in equal and offsetting amounts as contract costs are incurred.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Compensation cost for all stock-based awards is measured at fair value on the date of grant and is recognized over the service period for awards expected to vest.  Determining the fair value of share-based awards at the grant date requires judgment, including estimating the value of share-based awards that are expected to be forfeited. Actual results and future estimates may differ from the Company's current estimates.

 

Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Stock options are considered to be common stock equivalents in computing diluted net income per share, when applicable. When the Company incurs a loss, potentially dilutive common stock equivalents are excluded as their effect would be anti-dilutive, thereby decreasing the net loss per common share.  Because there was a net loss for the periods presented, no common stock equivalents were used in the computation of the net loss per common share.
