NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and a subsidiary with a majority voting interest of 51.8% (48.2% is owned by non-controlling interests) as of June 30, 2014 and 2013. In the preparation of consolidated financial statements of the Company, intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated and net earnings are reduced by the portion of the net earnings of subsidiaries applicable to non-controlling interests.

 

As consolidated financial statements are based on the assumption that they represent the financial position and operating results of a single economic entity, the retained earnings or deficit of a subsidiary at the date of acquisition, October 1, 2009, by the parent are excluded from consolidated retained earnings. When a subsidiary is consolidated, the consolidated financial statements include the subsidiary’s revenues, expenses, gains, and losses only from the date the subsidiary is initially consolidated, and the non-controlling interest is reported in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, separately from the parent’s equity. There are no shares of the Company held by the subsidiaries as of June 30, 2014 or June 30, 2013.

 

Non-controlling Interest in a Consolidated Subsidiary

 

As of June 30, 2014, the non-controlling interest was $244,808, which represents an $8,308 increase from $236,500 as of June 30, 2013. The increase of $8,308 in the non-controlling interest was due to the non-controlling interests in net income of subsidiary of $17,223 for the year ended June 30, 2014.

 

Segment Reporting

 

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires public companies to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments. We identify our operating segments based on how management internally evaluates separate financial information, business activities and management responsibility. We have one reportable segment, consisting of the sale of wireless access products.

 

We generate revenues from four geographic areas, consisting of the United States, the Caribbean and South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) and Asia. The following enterprise-wide disclosure is prepared on a basis consistent with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.  The following table contains certain financial information by geographic area: 

 

   Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 
Net sales:   2014    2013 
United States  $18,036,635   $29,978,319 
Caribbean and South America   2,109,320    1,648,452 
Europe, the Middle East and Africa ("EMEA")   3,789,414     
Asia   7,017,528    1,123,483 
Totals  $30,952,897   $32,750,254 

 

Long-lived assets, net:  June 30, 2014   June 30, 2013 
United States  $1,786,910   $2,595,094 
Asia   837,371    1,109,876 
Totals  $2,624,281   $3,704,970 

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of financial instruments such as assets, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt approximate the related fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. We invest our excess cash into financial instruments which are readily convertible into cash, such as money market funds and certificates of deposit (See Note 3).

 

Estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated 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 reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

We do not maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts. This is based upon our review of our collection history as well as the current balances associated with all significant customers and associated invoices.  

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition,” when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collection is reasonably assured and delivery of products has occurred or services have been rendered. Accordingly, we recognize revenues from product sales upon shipment of the products to customers or when the products are received by the customers in accordance with the shipping or delivery terms. We provide a warranty for one year from the shipment date, which is covered by our vendors pursuant to purchase agreements. Any net warranty related expenditures made by us have not historically been material. Under our sales return policy, customers may generally return products that are under warranty for repair or replacement.

 

Cost of Goods Sold

 

All costs associated with our contract manufacturers, as well as distribution, fulfillment and repair services are included in our cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold also includes amortization expense associated with capitalized product development costs associated with complete technology.

 

Capitalized Product Development Costs

 

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other” includes software that is part of a product or process to be sold to a customer and shall be accounted for under Subtopic 985-20. Our products contain embedded software internally developed by Franklin Technology, Inc., our Korea-based subsidiary (FTI), which is an integral part of these products because it allows the various components of the products to communicate with each other and the products are clearly unable to function without this coding.

 

The costs of product development that are capitalized once technological feasibility is determined (noted as Technology in progress in the Intangible Assets table, in Note 2 to Notes to Financial Statements) include payroll, employee benefits, and other headcount-related expenses associated with product development. Related licenses and certification costs are also capitalized. We determine that technological feasibility for our products is reached after all high-risk development issues have been resolved. Once the products are available for general release to our customers, we cease capitalizing the product development costs and any additional costs, if any, are expensed. The capitalized product development costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis using the greater of straight-line amortization or the ratio of the current gross revenues to the current and anticipated future gross revenues. The amortization begins when the products are available for general release to the Company’s customers.

 

As of June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, capitalized product development costs in progress were $39,545 and $32,500, respectively, and these amounts are included in intangible assets in our consolidated balance sheets. During the year ended June 30, 2014, we incurred $560,615 in capitalized product development costs, and such amounts are primarily comprised of certifications and licenses. All expenses incurred before technological feasibility is reached are expensed and included in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs were approximately $2,780,000 and $2,770,000 for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

Advertising and Promotion Costs

 

Costs associated with advertising and promotions are expensed as incurred.  Advertising and promotion costs were $20,869 and $52,532 for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

Warranties

 

We provide a warranty for one year which is covered by our vendors and manufacturers under purchase agreements between the Company and the vendors. In general, these products are shipped directly from our vendors to our customers. As a result, we believe we do not have any net warranty exposure and do not accrue any warranty expenses. Historically, the Company has not experienced any material net warranty expenditures.

 

Shipping and Handling Costs

 

Costs associated with product shipping and handling are expensed as incurred.  Shipping and handling costs, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the statement of comprehensive income (loss), were $392,128 and $245,124 for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flow, we consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Inventories

 

Our inventories consist of finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined on a first-in, first-out basis. We assess the inventory carrying value and reduce it, if necessary, to its net realizable value based on customer orders on hand, and internal demand forecasts using management’s best estimates given information currently available. Our customer demand is highly unpredictable, and can fluctuate significantly caused by factors beyond the control of the Company. We may write down our inventory value for potential obsolescence and excess inventory.  However, as of June 30, 2014, we believe our inventory needs no such reserves and have recorded no inventory reserves.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Significant additions or improvements extending useful lives of assets are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows:

 

Machinery  6 years
Office equipment  5 years
Molds  3 years
Vehicles  5 years
Computers and software  5 years
Furniture and fixtures  7 years
Facilities  5 years

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill and certain intangible assets were recorded in connection with the FTI acquisition in October 2009, and are accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations.”  Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the tangible and intangible net assets acquired. Intangible assets are recorded at their fair value at the date of acquisition. Goodwill and other intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”  Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually and any related impairment losses are recognized in earnings when identified. No impairment was noted as of June 30, 2014 and 2013.

Total  $1,247,223   $629,829   $177,715   $40,286   $5,254   $25,509 

 

Long-lived Assets

 

In accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment,” we review for impairment of long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable.  We consider the carrying value of assets may not be recoverable based upon our review of the following events or changes in circumstances: the asset’s ability to continue to generate income from operations and positive cash flow in future periods; loss of legal ownership or title to the assets; significant changes in our strategic business objectives and utilization of the asset; or significant negative industry or economic trends.  An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset are less than its carrying amount.

 

We are not aware of any events or changes in circumstances during the year ended June 30, 2014 that would indicate that the long-lived assets are impaired.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

We extend credit to our customers and perform ongoing credit evaluations of such customers. We evaluate our accounts receivable on a regular basis for collectability and provide for an allowance for potential credit losses as deemed necessary.  No reserve was required or recorded for any of the periods presented.

 

Substantially all of our revenues are derived from sales of wireless data products. Any significant decline in market acceptance of our products or in the financial condition of our existing customers could impair our ability to operate effectively.

 

A significant portion of our revenue is derived from a small number of customers. For the year ended June 30, 2014, net sales to our four largest customers represented 42%, 12%, 11%, and 10% of our consolidated net sales, respectively, and 69%, 19%, 0%, and 0% of our accounts receivable balance as of June 30, 2014. For the year ended June 30, 2013, net sales to our three largest customers represented 47%, 20%, and 19% of our consolidated net sales, respectively, and 62%, 0%, and 35% of our accounts receivable balance as of June 30, 2013. No other customers accounted for more than ten percent of total net sales for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

For the year ended June 30, 2014, we purchased the majority of our wireless data products from three manufacturing companies located in Asia. If these manufacturing companies were to experience delays, capacity constraints or quality control problems, product shipments to our customers could be delayed, or our customers could consequently elect to cancel the underlying product purchase order, which would negatively impact the Company’s revenue. For the year ended June 30, 2014, we purchased wireless data products from these suppliers in the amount of $20,336,773, or 75.8% of total purchases, and had related accounts payable of $8,817,409 as of June 30, 2014. For the year ended June 30, 2013, we purchased the majority of our wireless data products from one manufacturing company located in Asia. For the year ended June 30, 2013, we purchased wireless data products from this supplier in the amount of $19,702,329, or 86.1% of total purchases, and had related accounts payable of $3,372,227 as of June 30, 2013.

 

We maintain our cash accounts with established commercial banks.  Such cash deposits may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit of $250,000 for each account.  However, we do not anticipate any losses on excess deposits.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which eliminates the option of presenting the components of other comprehensive income (OCI) as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The ASU instead permits an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of OCI either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. With either format, the entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of OCI along with the total for OCI, and a total amount for comprehensive income. Also, the ASU requires entities to present, for either format, reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from OCI to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of OCI are presented. This ASU is to be applied retrospectively. For public entities, the ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We have adopted this guidance and note that it does not have any material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment, which permits entities to determine first whether it is necessary to apply the traditional two-step goodwill impairment test, based on qualitative factors. An entity also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test; an entity may resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. Also under the amendments, an entity is no longer permitted to carry forward its detailed calculation of a reporting unit’s fair value from a prior year. The ASU also includes examples of events and circumstances for an entity to consider in evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, which supersede the previous examples of events and circumstances that an entity should consider when testing goodwill for impairment between annual tests. An entity having a reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount will also consider the revised list of factors in determining whether to perform the second step of the impairment test. The ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. We have adopted this guidance and note that it does not have any material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 will eliminate transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Management is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and has not determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.
