1.BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION

Allied Motion Technologies Inc. (Allied Motion or the Company) is engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing and selling motion control solutions, which include integrated system solutions as well as individual motion control products, to a broad spectrum of customers throughout the world primarily for the commercial motor, industrial motion, automotive control, medical, and aerospace and defense markets.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using end of period exchange rates. Changes in reported amounts of assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries that occur as a result of changes in exchange rates between foreign subsidiaries’ functional currencies and the U.S. dollar are included in foreign currency translation adjustment. Foreign currency translation adjustment is included in accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Revenue and expense transactions use an average rate prevailing during the month of the related transaction. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of each Technology Unit (“TU”) are included in the results of operations as incurred.

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and include all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The financial data for the interim periods may not necessarily be indicative of results to be expected for the year.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

It is suggested that the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes to such statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 that was previously filed by the Company.

Error correction

The Company’s quarterly financial statements for each of the quarters included in its Form 10-Qs for the year ended December 31, 2016 contained an error related to the elimination of intercompany cost of sales. The error was corrected as of December 31, 2016, but since the adjustment was not material to any of the quarters the Form 10-Qs will not be amended. Management has determined the effects to be neither quantitatively or qualitatively material to the financial statements included in any of the Form 10-Qs filed during 2016.

The following table illustrates the correction of the error as shown in the statement of operations in Form 10-Q:

Year 2016	First Quarter		Second Quarter		Third Quarter
Net income as reported	$	2,127	$	2,942	$	2,520
Effect on cost of goods sold	228		251		301

Net income as revised	$	2,355	$	3,193	$	2,821

The following table illustrates the correction of the error as recorded in the Company’s financial statements during the fourth quarter 2016:

Year 2016	Fourth Quarter
Net income as recorded	$	1,489
Effect on cost of goods sold	(780		)

Net income as revised	$	709

The second quarter and year to date 2016 financial statements presented have been revised to reflect the error correction. The impact of the correction on basic and fully diluted earnings per share for the second quarter and year to date 2016 was an increase of $0.03 and $0.05, respectively.

Reclassifications

Certain items in the prior year’s consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2017 presentation.
