  BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10
-Q and Article
8
of Regulation S-
X.
Accordingly, they do
not
include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hickok Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). Significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the
three
months ended
March 31, 2019
are
not
necessarily indicative of the results that
may
be expected for the year ended
December 31, 2019.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10
-K for the year ended
December 31, 2018. 
 
During the
three
-month period ended
March 31, 2019,
there have been
no
changes to our significant accounting policies other than the adoption of the new standard for leases, as discussed in Note
2
below.
 
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, including transaction costs related to acquisitions that were reclassified from selling, general and administrative to other (income) expenses as these costs are
not
considered as operating costs. These reclassifications have
no
effect on the financial position or results of operations reported as of and for the periods presented.
