The discussions of Trio-Tech International’s (the “Company”) business and activities set forth in this Form 10-Q and in other past and future reports and announcements by the Company may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and assumptions regarding future activities and results of operations of the Company.  In light of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company: market acceptance of Company products and services; changing business conditions or technologies and volatility in the semiconductor industry, which could affect demand for the Company’s products and services; the impact of competition; problems with technology; product development schedules; delivery schedules; changes in military or commercial testing specifications which could affect the market for the Company’s products and services; difficulties in profitably integrating acquired businesses, if any, into the Company; risks associated with conducting business internationally and especially in Asia, including currency fluctuations and devaluation, currency restrictions, local laws and restrictions and possible social, political and economic instability; changes in U.S. and global financial and equity markets, including market disruptions and significant interest rate fluctuations; trade tension between U.S. and China; and other economic, financial and regulatory factors beyond the Company’s control. Other than statements of historical fact, all statements made in this Quarterly Report are forward-looking, including, but not limited to, statements regarding industry prospects, future results of operations or financial position, and statements of our intent, belief and current expectations about our strategic direction, prospective and future financial results and condition. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “potential,” “believes,” “can impact,” “continue,” or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology.  Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that are inherently difficult to predict, which could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from our expectations, forecasts and assumptions.

Unless otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events, changed circumstances, or the occurrence of unanticipated events. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

The Company’s operating results are presented based on the translation of foreign currencies using the respective quarter’s average exchange rate.

Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Comparability

Effective on the first day of fiscal 2020, the company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (“ASC 842”). Prior periods were not retrospectively restated, and accordingly, the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019, and the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were prepared using accounting standards that were different than those in effect for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

-6-

Leases-Lessee

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 842 introduces new requirements to increase transparency and comparability among organizations for leasing transactions for both lessees and lessors. It requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. These leases will be either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition.

The standard provided an alternative modified retrospective transition method. Under this method, the cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings is recognized on the date of adoption (July 1, 2019). The Company adopted ASC 842as of July 1, 2019, and applied the alternative modified retrospective transition method requiring application of the new guidance to all leases existing at, or entered into on or after, the date of adoption, i.e. July 1, 2019.

The Company applies the guidance in ASC 842 to individual leases of assets. When the Company receives substantially all of the economic benefits from and directs the use of specified property, plant and equipment, transactions give rise to leases. The Company’s classes of assets include real estate leases.

Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets, current portion and long term portion of operating leases in our consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Finance leases are included in plant and equipment, current portion and long term portion of finance leases in our consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has elected the practical expedient within ASC 842 to not separate lease and non-lease components within lease transactions for all classes of assets. Additionally, the Company has elected the short-term lease exception for all classes of assets, does not apply the recognition requirements for leases of 12 months or less, and recognizes lease payments for short-term leases as expense either straight-line over the lease term or as incurred depending on whether the lease payments are fixed or variable. These elections are applied consistently for all leases.

As part of applying the transition method, the Company has elected to apply the package of transition practical expedients within the new guidance. As required by the new standard, these expedients have been elected as a package and are consistently applied across the Company’s lease portfolio. Given this election, the Company need not reassess:

●

whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases

●

the lease classification for any expired or existing leases

●

treatment of initial direct costs relating to any existing leases

When discount rates implicit in leases cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the applicable incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to perform lease classification tests on lease components and to measure lease liabilities and ROU assets. The incremental borrowing rate used by the Company was based on baseline rates and adjusted by the credit spreads commensurate with the Company’s secured borrowing rate, over a similar term. At each reporting period when there is a new lease initiated, the rates established for that quarter will be used.

In applying the alternative modified retrospective transition method, the Company measured lease liabilities at the present value of the sum of remaining minimum rental payments (as defined under ASC Topic 840). The present value of lease liabilities has been measured using the Company’s incremental borrowing rates as of July 1, 2019 (the date of initial application). Additionally, ROU assets for these operating leases have been measured as the initial measurement of application lease liabilities adjusted for reinstatement liabilities.

The adoption of this new standard at July 1, 2019, and the application of the modified retrospective transition approach resulted in the following changes in the Company’s financial report:

(1)

assets increased by $614, primarily representing the recognition of ROU assets for operating leases

(2)

liabilities increased by $581, primarily representing the recognition of lease liabilities for operating leases.

Leases-Lessor

 

For the Company as a lessor, all of our leases will continue to be classified as operating leases under the new standard. We do not expect the new standard to have a material effect on our financial statements and we do not expect a significant change in our leasing activities between now and adoption.

2.    NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The amendments in ASU 2019-07 Codification Updates to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Final Rule Releases No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplifications toimprove, update, and simplify its regulations on financial reporting and disclosure. The amendments are effective for all entities upon addition to the FASB Codification.

The amendments in ASU 2018-18 ASC Topic 808: Collaborative Arrangements: Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606 provide more comparability in the presentation of revenue for certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants. The amendments allow organizations to only present units of account in collaborative arrangements that are within the scope of the revenue recognition standard together with revenue accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. The parts of the collaborative arrangement that are not in the scope of the revenue recognition standard should be presented separately from revenue accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. While early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, the Company has not elected to early adopt. The effectiveness of this update is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The amendments in ASU 2018-13 ASC Topic 820: Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements based on the concepts in the Concepts Statement, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. While early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, the Company has not elected to early adopt. The effectiveness of this update is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The amendments in ASU 2017-04 ASC Topic 350 — 'Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (“ASC Topic 350”) simplify the test for goodwill impairment. For public companies, these amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those periods. While early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, the Company has not elected to early adopt.

The amendments in ASU 2019-05 ASC Topic 326: Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (“ASC Topic 326”): Targeted Transition Relief is issued to provide option to measure certain types of assets at fair value which allows companies to irrevocably elect, upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the fair value option on financial instruments that (1) were previously recorded at amortized cost and (2) are within the scope of ASC 326-20 if the instruments are eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825-10. The amendments in ASU 2018-19 ASC Topic 326: Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments – Credit Losses clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of the credit losses standard, but rather, should be accounted for in accordance with the lease’s standard. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 ASC Topic 326: Financial Instruments — Credit losses (“ASC Topic 326”) are issued for the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.

While early application will be permitted for all organizations for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, the Company has not yet determined if it will early adopt. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements.

Other new pronouncements issued but not yet effective until after September 30, 2019 are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

4.   TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. The Company performs continuing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions, and although management generally does not require collateral, letters of credit may be required from the customers in certain circumstances.

Senior management reviews accounts receivable on a periodic basis to determine if any receivables will potentially be uncollectible. Management includes any accounts receivable balances that are determined to be uncollectible in the allowance for doubtful accounts. After all reasonable attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance.  Based on the information available, management believed the allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019 was adequate.

7.ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

Penang Property

During the fourth quarter of 2015, the operations in Malaysia planned to sell its factory building in Penang, Malaysia. In accordance with ASC Topic 360, during fiscal year 2015 the property was reclassified from investment property, which had a net book value of RM 371, or approximately $98*, to assets held for sale, since there was an intention to sell the factory building. In May 2015, Trio-Tech Malaysia was approached by a potential buyer to purchase the factory building. On September 14, 2015, application to sell the property was rejected by Penang Development Corporation (PDC). The rejection was because the business activity of the purchaser was not suitable to the industry that is being promoted on said property. PDC made an offer to purchase the property, which was not at the expected value and the offer expired on March 28, 2016 and no further conversations with PDC have occurred since. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, Management entered into a Sales and Purchase Agreement with a potential buyer. The completion of sale is subject to the approval by local government. The net book value of the building was RM371, or $88, as at September 30, 2019 and RM371, or $89, as at June 30, 2019.

Rental Property I - Mao Ye Property

In fiscal 2008, TTCQ purchased an office in Chongqing, China from MaoYe Property Ltd. (“MaoYe”), for a total cash purchase price of RMB 5,554, or approximately $894. TTCQ identified a new tenant and signed a new rental agreement (653 square meters at a monthly rent of RMB 39, or approximately $6) on August 1, 2015 which expires on July 31, 2020. On April 1, 2019, a supplementary agreement was signed to revise the monthly rent to RMB 20, or approximately $2.6 for 403 square meters for the remaining 2 unsold units. During the 2019 fiscal year, the Company sold thirteen of the fifteen units constituting the Mao Ye Property. Management has decided not to sell the remaining two units of Mao Ye properties, considering the market conditions in China.

Property purchased from MaoYe generated a rental income of $8 during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $22 for the same period in last fiscal year.

Rental Property II - JiangHuai

In fiscal year 2010, TTCQ purchased eight units of commercial property in Chongqing, China from Chongqing JiangHuai Real Estate Development Co. Ltd. (“JiangHuai”) for a total purchase price of RMB 3,600, or approximately $580. Although these units were rented in the past, all eight units are currently vacant and TTCQ is working with the developer to find a suitable buyer to purchase all the commercial units. TTCQ has yet to receive the title deed for these properties. TTCQ is in the legal process to obtain the title deed, which is dependent on JiangHuai completing the entire project.

Property purchased from JiangHuai did not generate any rental income during the three months ended September 30, 2019 or during the same period in the prior fiscal year.

Rental Property III – FuLi

In fiscal 2010, TTCQ entered into a Memorandum Agreement with Chongqing FuLi Real Estate Development Co. Ltd. (“FuLi”) to purchase two commercial properties totaling 311.99 square meters (“office space”) located in Jiang Bei District Chongqing. . The total purchase price committed and paid was RMB 4,025, or approximately $648. The development was completed and the property was handed over in April 2013 and the title deed was received during the third quarter of fiscal 2014.

-13-

The two commercial properties were leased to third parties under two separate rental agreements. One of such leases provides for a rent increase of 6% every year on May 1, commencing in 2019 until the rental agreement expired on April 30, 2021. For the other leased property (which lease expired on March 31, 2018), TTCQ has signed a rental agreement to rent out the 161 square meters at a monthly rent of RMB 10, or approximately $2 on November 1, 2018 which expires on October 31, 2019. In September 2019, TTCQ has renewed the agreement at the same month rent of RMB 10 or approximately $2 for a period of one year.

Properties purchased from Fu Li generated a rental income of $9 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, and $5 for the same period in the last fiscal year.

Summary

Total rental income for all investment properties in China was $17 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $27 for the same period in the last fiscal year.

Depreciation expenses for all investment properties in China were $18 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $14 for the same period in the last fiscal year.

(“Developer”) to form a new company, Junzhou Co., Limited (“Joint Venture” or “Junzhou”) to joint develop the “Singapore Themed Park” project (the “project”), where the Company paid RMB10 million for the 10% investment in the joint venture. The Developer paid Company management fee of RMB5 million in cash upon signing of the agreement with a remaining fee of RMB5 million payable upon fulfilment of certain conditions in accordance with the agreement. The Company further reduced its investment by RMB137, or approximately $22 towards the losses from operations incurred by the joint venture.

On October 2, 2013, the Company disposed its entire 10% interest in the joint venture. The Company recognized the disposal of its 10% investment in Jun Zhou based on the recorded net book value of RMB5 million or equivalent to US$803K, from net considerations paid, in accordance with US GAAP under ASC Topic 845 Non-monetary Consideration, and its presented under “Other Assets” as non-current assets to defer the recognition of the gain on the disposal of the 10% interest in joint venture investment until such time that the consideration is paid, so that the gain can be ascertained;

b) Amounts of RMB 5,000 or approximately $814 as disclosed in Note 5, plus the interest receivable on long term loan receivable of RMB 1,250 or approximately $200 and impairment on interest of RMB 906 or approximately $150.

The shop lots are to be delivered to TTCQ upon completion of the construction of the shop lots in Singapore Themed Resort Project. The initial targeted date of completion was December 31, 2016. Based on discussion with the developers, the completion date is currently estimated to be December 31, 2021. The delay was primarily due to the time needed by the developers to work with various parties to inject sufficient funds into this project. Based on the available information, management believes that the developer is capable of working with new investors to complete certain phases of this project.

Trio-Tech (Tianjin) Co. Ltd. in China has no capital commitments for the purchase of equipment and other related infrastructure costs as at September 30, 2019, as compared to the capital commitment as at June 30, 2019 amounting to RMB 397, or approximately $58.

Deposits with banks in China are not insured by the local government or agency, and are consequently exposed to risk of loss. The Company believes the probability of a bank failure, causing loss to the Company, is remote.

The Company is, from time to time, the subject of litigation claims and assessments arising out of matters occurring in its normal business operations. In the opinion of management, resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements.

15.BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company generates revenue primarily from 3 different segments: Manufacturing, Testing and Distribution. The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when there is approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. The Company’s revenues are measured based on consideration stipulated in the arrangement with each customer, net of any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes. The revenues are recognized as separate performance obligations that are satisfied by transferring control of the product or service to the customer.

The testing service industry (which performs structural and electronic tests of semiconductor devices), the designing and manufacturing of equipment (which equipment tests the structural integrity of integrated circuits and other products), distribution of various products from other manufacturers in Singapore and Southeast Asia, and the real estate segment in China.

The revenue allocated to individual countries was based on where the customers were located. The allocation of the cost of equipment, the current year investment in new equipment and depreciation expense have been made on the basis of the primary purpose for which the equipment was acquired.

Significant Judgments

The Company’s arrangements with its customers include various combinations of products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. A product or service is considered distinct if it is separately identifiable from other deliverables in the arrangement and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer.

The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis (“SSP”). Determining the SSP for each distinct performance obligation and allocation of consideration from an arrangement to the individual performance obligations and the appropriate timing of revenue recognition are significant judgments with respect to these arrangements. The Company typically establishes the SSP based on observable prices of products or services sold separately in comparable circumstances to similar clients. The Company may estimate SSP by considering internal costs, profit objectives and pricing practices in certain circumstances.

Warranties, discounts and allowances are estimated using historical and recent data trends. The Company includes estimates in the transaction price only to the extent that a significant reversal of revenue is not probable in subsequent periods. The Company’s products and services are generally not sold with a right of return, nor has the Company experienced significant returns from or refunds to its customers.

-17-

Manufacturing

The Company primarily derives revenue from the sale of both front-end and back-end semiconductor test equipment and related peripherals, maintenance and support of all these products, installation and training services and the sale of spare parts. The Company’s revenues are measured based on consideration stipulated in the arrangement with each customer, net of any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes.

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customer. The Company uses judgment to evaluate whether the control has transferred by considering several indicators, including:

●

whether the Company has a present right to payment;

●

the customer has legal title;

●

the customer has physical possession;

●

the customer has significant risk and rewards of ownership; and

●

the customer has accepted the product, or whether customer acceptance is considered a formality based on history of acceptance of similar products (for example, when the customer has previously accepted the same equipment, with the same specifications, and when we can objectively demonstrate that the tool meets all of the required acceptance criteria, and when the installation of the system is deemed perfunctory).

Not all of the indicators need to be met for the Company to conclude that control has transferred to the customer. In circumstances in which revenue is recognized prior to the product acceptance, the portion of revenue associated with its performance obligations of product installation and training services are deferred and recognized upon acceptance.

The majority of sales under the Manufacturing segment include a standard 12-month warranty. The Company has concluded that the warranty provided for standard products are assurance type warranties and are not separate performance obligations. Warranty provided for customized products are service warranties and are separate performance obligations. Transaction prices are allocated to this performance obligation using cost plus method. The portion of revenue associated with warranty service is deferred and recognized as revenue over the warranty period, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of warranty services provided by the Company.

Testing

The Company rendered testing services to manufacturers and purchasers of semiconductors and other entities who either lack testing capabilities or whose in-house screening facilities are insufficient. The Company primarily derives testing revenue from burn-in services, manpower supply and other associated services. SSP is directly observable from the sales orders. Revenue is allocated to performance obligations satisfied at a point in time depending upon terms of the sales order. Generally, there is no other performance obligation other than what has been stated inside the sales order for each of these sales.

Terms of contract that may indicate potential variable consideration included warranty, late delivery penalty and reimbursement to solve non-conformance issues for rejected products. Based on historical and recent data trends, it is concluded that these terms of the contract do not represent potential variable consideration. The transaction price is not contingent on the occurrence of any future event.

Distribution

The Company distributes complementary products particularly equipment, industrial products and components by manufacturers mainly from the U.S., Europe, Taiwan and Japan. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales at a point in time when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customer. The Company uses judgment to evaluate whether the control has transferred by considering several indicators discussed above. The Company recognizes the revenue at a point in time, generally upon shipment or delivery of the products to the customer or distributors, depending upon terms of the sales order.

All inter-segment revenue was from the manufacturing segment to the testing and distribution segments. Total inter-segment revenue was $381 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $285 for the same period in the last fiscal year.  Corporate assets mainly consisted of cash and prepaid expenses. Corporate expenses mainly consisted of stock option expenses, salaries, insurance, professional expenses and directors' fees. Corporate expenses are allocated to the four segments. The following segment information table includes segment operating income or loss after including the corporate expenses allocated to the segments, which gets eliminated in the consolidation.

17.  INCOME TAX

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes and income tax assets and liabilities, including evaluating uncertainties in the application of accounting principles and complex tax laws. The statute of limitations, in general, is open for years 2014 to 2019 for tax authorities in those jurisdictions to audit or examine income tax returns. The Company is under annual review by the tax authorities of the respective jurisdiction to which the subsidiaries belong.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017, and reduces the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, eliminated corporate Alternative Minimum Tax, modified rules for expensing capital investment, and limited the deduction of interest expense for certain companies. The Act is a fundamental change to the taxation of multinational companies, including a shift from a system of worldwide taxation with some deferral elements to a territorial system, current taxation of certain foreign income, a minimum tax on low tax foreign earnings, and new measures to curtail base erosion and promote U.S. production.

-19-

Due to the enactment of Tax Act, the Company is subject to a tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”).  GILTI is a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations. Companies subject to GILTI have the option to account for the GILTI tax as a period cost if and when incurred, or to recognize deferred taxes for temporary differences including outside basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI. The Company has elected to account for GILTI as a period cost, and therefore has included GILTI expense amounting to $35 for the period ended September 30, 2019.

The Company's income tax expense was $Nil and $74 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively. Our effective tax rate ("ETR") from continuing operations was 0% and 84.1% for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 respectively. The following items caused the caused the quarterly ETR to be significantly different:

1). During 3 months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a income tax benefit of $35 as a result of tax refund in China operation which reduced the ETR by 15%.  During the quarter, the Company also recorded a provision of GILTI for $35.

2). During 3 months ended September 30, 2018, the company recorded a income tax expenses of $74 which is absent during the 3 months ended September 2019 due to pre-tax income changes as well as various discrete items.

The Company accrues penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits when necessary as a component of penalties and interest expenses, respectively. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits or related accrued penalties or interest expenses at September 30, 2019.

In assessing the ability to realize the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on these criteria, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will not realize the benefits of the federal, state, and foreign deductible differences. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been established.

18.  CONTRACT BALANCES

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and collections may result in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities). The Company’s payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment of 70% to 90% of total contract consideration within 30 to 60 days of shipment, with the remainder payable within 30 days of acceptance. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, the Company has determined that its contracts generally do not include a significant financing component.

Contract assets were recorded under other receivable while contract liabilities were recorded under accrued expenses in the balance sheet. 

The following table is the reconciliation of contract balances.

	Sept. 30,2019 (Unaudited)	Jun 30,2019  (Unaudited)
Trade Accounts Receivable	7,520	7,113
Accounts Payable	3,170	3,272
Contract Assets	517	419
Contract Liabilities	496	501

Remaining Performance Obligation

As at September 30, 2019, the Company had $941 of remaining performance obligations, which represents our obligation to deliver products and services. Given the profile of contract terms, approximately 50 percent of this amount is expected to be recognized as revenue over the next two years, remaining of the amount is expected to be recognized between three and five years.

Refer to note 15 “Business Segments” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information related to revenue.

19.   EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company adopted ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period.  Diluted EPS give effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during a period.  In computing diluted EPS, the average price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options and warrants.

-20-

Options to purchase 673,500 shares of Common Stock at exercise prices ranging from $2.69 to $5.98 per share were outstanding as of September 30, 2019. No outstanding options were excluded in the computation of diluted EPS for fiscal year 2020 since all options were dilutive.

Options to purchase 582,500 shares of Common Stock at exercise prices ranging from $2.69 to $5.98 per share were outstanding as of September 30, 2018. No outstanding options were excluded in the computation of diluted EPS for fiscal year 2019 since all options were dilutive.

The following table is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares used in the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the period presented herein:

20.  STOCK OPTIONS

On September 24, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted the 2007 Employee Stock Option Plan (the “2007 Employee Plan”) and the 2007 Directors Equity Incentive Plan (the “2007 Directors Plan”) each of which was approved by the shareholders on December 3, 2007. Each of those plans was amended during the term of such plan to increase the number of shares covered thereby. As of the last amendment thereof, the 2007 Employee Plan covered an aggregate of 600,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock and the 2007 Directors Plan covered an aggregate of 500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Each of those plans terminated by its respective terms on September 24, 2017. These two plans were administered by the Board, which also established the terms of the awards.

On September 14, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted the 2017 Employee Stock Option Plan (the “2017 Employee Plan”) and the 2017 Directors Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Directors Plan”) each of which was approved by the shareholders on December 4, 2017. Each of these plans is administered by the Board of Directors of the Company.

Assumptions

The fair value for the options granted were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions, assuming no expected dividends:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2019	2018
Expected volatility	45.38%to 97.48%	60.41% to 104.94 %
Risk-free interest rate	0.30% to 2.35%	0.30% to 0.78 %
Expected life (years)	2.5 -3.25	2.50

The expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. Due to higher volatility, the observation is made on a daily basis for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The observation period covered is consistent with the expected life of options. The expected life of the options granted to employees has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method as prescribed by ASC Topic 718 Stock Based Compensation, which, among other provisions, allows companies without access to adequate historical data about employee exercise behavior to use a simplified approach for estimating the expected life of a "plain vanilla" option grant. The simplified rule for estimating the expected life of such an option is the average of the time to vesting and the full term of the option. The risk-free rate is consistent with the expected life of the stock options and is based on the United States Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

2017 Employee Stock Option Plan

The Company’s 2017 Employee Plan permits the grant of stock options to its employees covering up to an aggregate of 300,000 shares of Common Stock. Under the 2017 Employee Plan, all options must be granted with an exercise price of not less than fair value as of the grant date and the options granted must be exercisable within a maximum of ten years after the date of grant, or such lesser period of time as is set forth in the stock option agreements. The options may be exercisable (a) immediately as of the effective date of the stock option agreement granting the option, or (b) in accordance with a schedule related to the date of the grant of the option, the date of first employment, or such other date as may be set by the Compensation Committee. Generally, options granted under the 2017 Employee Plan are exercisable within five years after the date of grant, and vest over the period as follows: 25% vesting on the grant date and the remaining balance vesting in equal installments on the next three succeeding anniversaries of the grant date. The share-based compensation will be recognized in terms of the grade method on a straight-line basis for each separately vesting portion of the award.

TRIO-TECH INTERNATIONAL AND SUBSIDIARIES

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

Overview

The following should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes in Item I above and with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes, the information under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.

Trio-Tech International (“TTI”) was incorporated in 1958 under the laws of the State of California. As used herein, the term “Trio-Tech” or “Company” or “we” or “us” or “Registrant” includes Trio-Tech International and its subsidiaries unless the context otherwise indicates. Our mailing address and executive offices are located at Block 1008 Toa Payoh North, Unit 03-09 Singapore 318996, and our telephone number is (65) 6265 3300.

The Company is a provider of reliability test equipment and services to the semiconductor industry. Our customers rely on us to verify that their semiconductor components meet or exceed the rigorous reliability standards demanded for aerospace, communications and other electronics products.

TTI generated approximately 99.8% of its revenue from its three core business segments in the test and measurement industry, i.e. manufacturing of test equipment, testing services and distribution of test equipment during the three months ended September 30, 2019. The Real Estate segment contributed only 0.2% to the total revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Manufacturing

TTI develops and manufactures an extensive range of test equipment used in the "front end" and the "back end" manufacturing processes of semiconductors. Our equipment includes leak detectors, autoclaves, centrifuges, burn-in systems and boards, HAST testers, temperature controlled chucks, wet benches and more.

Testing

TTI provides comprehensive electrical, environmental, and burn-in testing services to semiconductor manufacturers in our testing laboratories in Asia and the U.S. Our customers include both manufacturers and end-users of semiconductor and electronic components, who look to us when they do not want to establish their own facilities. The independent tests are performed to industry and customer specific standards.

Distribution

In addition to marketing our proprietary products, we distribute complementary products made by manufacturers mainly from the U.S., Europe, Taiwan and Japan. The products include environmental chambers, handlers, interface systems, vibration systems, shaker systems, solderability testers and other semiconductor equipment. Besides equipment, we also distribute a wide range of components such as connectors, sockets, LCD display panels and touch-screen panels. Furthermore, our range of products are mainly targeted for industrial products rather than consumer products whereby the life cycle of the industrial products can last from 3 years to 7 years.

Real Estate

Beginning in 2007, TTI has invested in real estate property in Chongqing, China, which has generated investment income from the rental revenue from real estate we purchased in Chongqing, China, and investment returns from deemed loan receivables, which are classified as other income. The rental income is generated from the rental properties in MaoYe and FuLi in Chongqing, China. In the second quarter of fiscal 2015, the investment in JiaSheng, which was deemed as loans receivable, was transferred to down payment for purchase of investment property in China.

Results of Operations and Business Outlook

The following table sets forth our revenue components for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Revenue Components	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2019	2018
Revenue:
Manufacturing	33.8%	36.2%

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $9,823, a decrease of $222 from $10,045 when compared to the revenue for the same period of the prior fiscal year. As a percentage, revenue decreased by 2.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 when compared to revenue for the same period of the prior year.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, there was a decrease in revenue across all segments except for the distribution segmentwhen compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Total revenue into and within China, the Southeast Asia regions and other countries (except revenue into and within the United States) decreased by $389 or 4.1%, to $9,187 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared with $9,576 for the same period of last fiscal year. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in the manufacturing segment in Singapore and a decrease in the testing segments in the Malaysia and China operations which were partially offset by an increase in the testing segments in the Singapore and Thailand operations. The decrease was also offset by an increase in the distribution segment in the Singapore operation.

Total revenue into and within the U.S. was $636 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $167 from $469 for the same period of the prior year. The increase in the three months’ result was mainly due to an increase in orders from existing customers in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 as compared to the same period in fiscal year 2019.

Revenue within our four current segments for the three months ended September 30, 2019 is discussed below.

Manufacturing Segment

Revenue in the manufacturing segment as a percentage of total revenue was 33.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of 2.4% of total revenue when compared to 36.2% in the same period of the last fiscal year. The absolute amount of revenue decreased by $320 to $3,317 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $3,637, for the same period of the last fiscal year. 

Revenue in the manufacturing segment for the three months ended September 30, 2019 decreased primarily due to a decrease in orders by customers in the Singapore operations.

Revenue in the manufacturing segment from a major customer accounted for 39.3% and 39.6% of our revenue in the manufacturing segment for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The future revenue in our manufacturing segment will be affected by the purchase and capital expenditure plans of this major customer, if the customer base cannot be increased.

Testing Services Segment

Revenue in the testing segment as a percentage of total revenue was 44.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of 0.5% of the total revenue when compared to 44.2% for the same period of the last fiscal year. The absolute amount of revenue decreased by $47 to $4,390 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $4,437 for the same period of the last fiscal year. 

Revenue in the testing segment for the three months ended September 30, 2019 decreased primarily due to a decrease in the Malaysia and China operations but was partially offset by an increase in the Singapore and Thailand operations. The decrease in Malaysia and China operations was caused by a decrease in orders from the customer.

-31-

The revenue in the testing segment from a major customer accounted for 66.4% and 76.0% of our revenue in the testing segment for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The future revenue in the testing segment will be affected by the demands of this major customer, if the customer base cannot be increased. Demand for testing services varies from country to country depending on any changes taking place in the market and our customers’ forecasts. As it is difficult to accurately forecast fluctuations in the market, management believes it is necessary to maintain testing facilities in close proximity to the customers in order to make it convenient for them to send us their newly manufactured parts for testing and to enable us to maintain a share of the market.

Distribution Segment

Revenue in the distribution segment as a percentage of total revenue was 21.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of 2.0% of total revenue when compared to 19.3% in the same period of the last fiscal year. The absolute amount of revenue increased by $155 to $2,099 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $1,944 for the same period of the last fiscal year. 

Revenue in the distribution segment for the three months ended September 30, 2019 increased primarily due to an increase in revenue generated from customers in the Singapore operation.

Demand for the distribution segment varies depending on the demand for our customers’ products, the changes taking place in the market and our customers’ forecasts.  Hence it is difficult to accurately forecast fluctuations in the market.

Real Estate Segment

The real estate segment accounted for 0.2% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 0.3% of total revenue for three months ended September 30, 2018. The absolute amount of revenue in the real estate segment was $17 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $27 for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Uncertainties and Remedies

There are several influencing factors which create uncertainties when forecasting performance, such as the constantly changing nature of technology, specific requirements from the customer, decline in demand for certain types of burn-in devices or equipment, decline in demand for testing services and fabrication services, and other similar factors. One factor that influences uncertainty is the highly competitive nature of the semiconductor industry. Another is that some customers are unable to provide a forecast of the products required in the upcoming weeks; hence it is difficult to plan for the resources needed to meet these customers’ requirements due to short lead time and last minute order confirmation. This will normally result in a lower margin for these products, as it is more expensive to purchase materials in a short time frame. However, the Company has taken certain actions and formulated certain plans to deal with and to help mitigate these unpredictable factors. For example, in order to meet manufacturing customers’ demands upon short notice, the Company maintains higher inventories, but continues to work closely with its customers to avoid stock piling. We believe that we have improved customer service from staff through our efforts to keep our staff up to date on the newest technology and stressing the importance of understanding and meeting the stringent requirements of our customers. Finally, the Company is exploring new markets and products, looking for new customers, and upgrading and improving burn-in technology while at the same time searching for improved testing methods for higher technology chips.

We are in the process of implementing an Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) system, as part of a multi-year plan to integrate and upgrade our systems and processes. The implementation of this ERP system is scheduled to occur in phases over the next few years, and began with the migration of certain of our operational and financial systems in our Singapore operations to the new ERP system during the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2018, the operational and financial systems in Singapore were substantially transitioned to the new system. The operational and financial systems in our Malaysia operation were substantially transitioned to the new system during the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

This implementation effort will continue in fiscal 2020, when the operational and financial system in our Tianjin and Suzhou operations will be substantially transitioned to the new system.

As a phased implementation of this system occurs, we are experiencing certain changes to our processes and procedures which, in turn, result in changes to our internal control over financial reporting. While we expect the new ERP system to strengthen our internal financial controls by automating certain manual processes and standardizing business processes and reporting across our organization, management will continue to evaluate and monitor our internal controls as processes and procedures in each of the affected areas evolve.

The Company’s primary exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates relates to non-U.S. dollar-denominated sales and operating expenses in its subsidiaries. Strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies adversely affects the U.S. dollar value of the Company’s foreign currency-denominated sales and earnings, and generally leads the Company to raise international pricing, potentially reducing demand for the Company’s products. Margins on sales of the Company’s products in foreign countries and on sales of products that include components obtained from foreign suppliers could be materially adversely affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. In some circumstances, for competitive or other reasons, the Company may decide not to raise local prices to fully offset the dollar’s strengthening, or at all, which would adversely affect the U.S. dollar value of the Company’s foreign currency-denominated sales and earnings. Conversely, a strengthening of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, while generally beneficial to the Company’s foreign currency denominated sales and earnings could cause the Company to reduce international pricing, thereby limiting the benefit. Additionally, strengthening of foreign currencies may also increase the Company’s cost of product components denominated in those currencies, thus adversely affecting gross margins.

There are several influencing factors which create uncertainties when forecasting performance of our real estate segment, such as obtaining the rights by the joint venture to develop the real estate projects in China, inflation in China, currency fluctuations and devaluation, and changes in Chinese laws, regulations, or their interpretation.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018

The following table sets forth certain consolidated statements of income data as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 respectively:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2019	2018
Revenue	100.0%	100.0%
Cost of sales	77.1	79.1
Gross Margin	22.9%	20.9%
Operating expenses
General and administrative	18.2%	17.5%
Selling	1.9	1.5
Research and development	0.8	0.7
Gain on disposal of plant and equipment	(0.2)	-
Total operating expenses	20.7%	19.7%
Income from Operations	2.2%	1.2%

Overall Gross Margin

Overall gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased by 2.0% to 22.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, from 20.9% for the same period of the last fiscal year.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the manufacturing segment increased by 1.6% to 23.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to 21.4% for the same period in last fiscal year. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to higher sales of high profit margin products in the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the same period in the last fiscal year. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profits in the manufacturing segment decreased by $18 to $762 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, from $780 for the same period in the last fiscal year.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the testing segment increased by 3.5% to 27.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, from 23.8% in the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to management efforts in reducing costs in the China and Malaysia operations. Significant portions of our cost of goods sold are fixed in the testing segment.  Thus, as the demand of services and factory utilization decreases, the fixed costs are spread over the decreased output, which decreases the gross profit margin. However, this negative impact was mitigated by our effort in cost savings as mentioned earlier. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the testing segment increased by $145 to $1,199 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $1,054 for the same period of the last fiscal year as a result of an increase in gross profit margin.

Gross profit margin of the distribution segment is not only affected by the market price of the products we distribute, but also the mix of products we distribute, which changes frequently as a result of changes in market demand. Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the distribution segment increased by 0.6% to 13.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, from 13.3% in the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase in gross margin was due to the increase in sales of high profit margin products in our Singapore operation as compared to the same period of last fiscal year. In terms of absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the distribution segment for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $292 as compared to $258 in the same period of the last fiscal year. 

In absolute dollar amounts, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, gross loss in the real estate segment was $1, as compared to gross profit margin of $9 for same period of last fiscal year. The increase in gross loss was mainly due to the sales of properties in real estate segment after the first quarter of last fiscal year, which resulted in a decrease in rental income.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
(Unaudited)	2019	2018
General and administrative	$1,788	$1,759
Selling	190	147
Research and development	76	72
Gain on disposal of plant and equipment	(24)	-
Total	$2,030	$1,978

General and administrative expenses increased by $29, or 1.6%, from $1,759 to $1,788 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same period of last fiscal year. The increase in general and administrative expenses was mainly attributable to the higher professional fees and payroll related expenses in the U.S. operations.

Selling expenses increased by $43, or 29.3%, from $147 to $190 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase was mainly due to an increase in commission expenses in the manufacturing segment of the Singapore operations as a result of an increase in commissionable revenue although we saw a decrease in overall revenue in the manufacturing segment.

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, there was a gain on disposal of plant and equipment of $24 as compared to $nil in the same period of last fiscal year.

Income from Operations

Income from operations was $222 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $99, as compared to $123 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was mainly due to the increase in gross profit which was partially offset by the increase in operating expenses, as previously discussed.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
(Unaudited)	2019	2018
Interest expenses	$68	$78

Interest expense was $68 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $10, or 12.8% as compared to $78 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease was due to a decrease in the utilization of short-term loans in the Singapore and China operations. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had an unused line of credit of $6,250 as compared to $3,858 at September 30, 2018.

Other Income

Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2019	2018
Interest income	32	10
Other rental income	30	27
Exchange gain/(loss)	5	(39)
Bad debt recovery	11	2
Other miscellaneous income	32	43
Total	$110	$43

Other income increased by $67 to $110 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from $43 as compared to the same period in the last fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in interest income from placement of fixed deposit for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to same period in the last fiscal year. Furthermore, this increase in other income was positively impacted by a foreign exchange movement. The exchange gain was $5 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to an exchange loss of $39 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, which was mainly due to transactional foreign exchange differences in the U.S. operations.

-34-

Income Tax Expenses

The Company's income tax expense was $Nil and $74 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively. The provision for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily due to provision for GILTI tax which is absent during first quarter of 2019 fiscal year. The provision for GILTI tax was offset by pre-tax income changes as well as various discrete items. The income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was offset by the tax refund in the China operation. In the same period of 2018, the Company recorded deferred tax expense for timing differences in the Malaysia operation.

Non-controlling Interest

As of September 30, 2019, we held a 55% interest in Trio-Tech (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd., Trio-Tech (Kuala Lumpur) Sdn. Bhd., SHI International Pte. Ltd., and PT. SHI Indonesia. We also held a 76% interest in Prestal Enterprise Sdn. Bhd. The share of net loss from the subsidiaries by the non-controlling interest for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $10, a decrease of $49 compared to $59 for the same period of the previous fiscal year. The decrease in the net loss of the non-controlling interest in the subsidiaries was attributable to the increase in net income generated by the Malaysia operation as compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year.

Net Income

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $273, an increase of $208, as compared to a net income of $65 for the same period last fiscal year.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.07 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $0.02 for the same period in the last fiscal year. Basic earnings per share from discontinued operations were Nil for both the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.07 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $0.02 for the same period in the last fiscal year. Diluted earnings per share from discontinued operations were Nil for both the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Segment Information

The revenue, gross margin and income or loss from operations for each segment during the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 and fiscal year 2019 are presented below. As the revenue and gross margin for each segment have been discussed in the previous section, only the comparison of income or loss from operations is discussed below.

Manufacturing Segment

The revenue, gross margin and income from operations for the manufacturing segment for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended  September 30,
(Unaudited)	2019	2018
Revenue	$3,317	$3,637
Gross margin	23.0%	21.4%
(Loss)/Income from operations	$(12)	$107

Loss from operations from the manufacturing segment was $12 as compared to income from operation of $107 in the same period of the last fiscal year, primarily due to a decrease in gross margin of $18 and an increase in operating expenses of $101. Operating expenses for the manufacturing segment were $774 and $673 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in operating expenses was mainly due to an increase of $60 in general and administrative expenses and an increase of $56 in selling expenses. The increase in general and administrative expenses was mainly attributable to an increase in payroll related expenses in the Singapore operations. The increase in selling expenses was due to higher commission expenses as there was higher commissionable revenue in the Singapore operations. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $19 in corporate overhead expenses.

Operating expenses were $1,131 and $1,192 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.The decrease of $61 in operating expenses was mainly due to a decrease in general and administrative expenses, which was mainly due to lower payroll related expenses incurred in the China operations.

Income from operations was $204, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $172 for the same period of last fiscal year. The increase of $32 was mainly due to an increase of $34 in the gross margin, as discussed earlier.

Financial Condition

During the three months ended September 30, 2019 total assets decreased by $409 from $36,527 as at June 30, 2019 to $36,118. The decrease in total assets was primarily due to a decrease in cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, inventory, deferred tax asset, investment properties, property, plant and equipment, other asset and restricted term deposits, which was partially–offset by an increase in short term deposits, trade accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, and operating lease right-of-use assets.

Cash and cash equivalents were $3,710 as at September 30, 2019, reflecting a decrease of $1,153 from $4,863 as at June 30, 2019, primarily due to placement made into fixed deposits in the Singapore and China operations and the acquisition of plant and equipment in the Malaysia operation.

Short term deposits were $5,222 as at September 30, 2019, reflecting an increase of $1,078 from $4,144 as at June 30, 2019, primarily due to an increase in deposits in the Singapore and China operations.

As at September 30, 2019, the trade accounts receivable balance increased by $407 to $7,520, from $7,113 as at June 30, 2019, primarily due to the increase in revenue for the first three months of fiscal year 2020 as compared to the revenue in the fourth quarter of last fiscal year in the Malaysia, China and U.S. operations. This increase was partially offset by the decrease in the Singapore and Thailand operations due to the decrease in revenue for the first three months of fiscal year 2020 as compared to the revenue in the fourth quarter of last fiscal year. The number of days’ sales outstanding in accounts receivables for the Group was 67 and 74 days at the end of the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 and for the fiscal year ended 2019, respectively.

As at September 30, 2019 other receivables were $756, reflecting a decrease of $61 from $817 as at June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in advance payments made to suppliers and other tax receivables in the Singapore operation.

Inventories as at September 30, 2019 were $1,688, a decrease of $739, as compared to $2,427 as at June 30, 2019. The decrease in inventories was in line with a decrease in orders by customers in the manufacturing segment of Singapore operations.

Prepaid expenses were $346 as at September 30, 2019 compared to $287 as at June 30, 2019. The increase of $59 was primarily due to the prepaid application fee made in relation to the sale of property in the Malaysia operation.

Investment properties, net in China were $736 as at September 30, 2019 and $782 as at June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to the depreciation charged for the period and the foreign currency exchange movement between June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2019. 

Assets held for sales were $88 as at September 30, 2019 and $89 as at June 30, 2019. Management entered into a Sales and Purchase Agreement with a potential buyer during fiscal year 2019. The completion of the sale is subject to approval by the local government. In accordance with ASC 360-20, a sale is considered consummated when all the legal steps to transfer the ownership are completed, not when the sales agreement is signed.

Property, plant and equipment decreased by $372 from $12,159 as at June 30, 2019, to $11,787 as at September 30, 2019, mainly due to depreciation charged for the period and the foreign currency exchange movement between June 30, 2019 to September 30, 2019. The decrease was partially offset by the new acquisition of plant and equipment in the Malaysia operation.

Restricted cash decreased by $32 to $1,674 as at September 30, 2019, as compared to $1,706 as at June 30, 2019. This was primarily due to the foreign currency exchange movement between June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2019.

Other assets decreased by $156 to $1,594 as at September 30, 2019, as compared to $1,750 as at June 30, 2019.  This was mainly due to the reclassification of down payments made for the purchase of property, plant and equipment, to fixed assets in the Malaysia operation.

Accounts payable decreased by $102 to $3,170 as at September 30, 2019, as compared to $3,272 as at June 30, 2019. This was due to a decrease in purchases by the Singapore operation.

Accrued expenses decreased by $112 to $3,374 as at September 30, 2019, as compared to $3,486 as at June 30, 2019. The decrease in accrued expenses was mainly due to a decrease in the accrued payroll liability in the China operation.

-37-

Bank loans payable decreased by $161 to $2,619 as at September 30, 2019, as compared to $2,780 as at June 30, 2019. This was due to the repayments made in the Singapore and Malaysia operations.

Finance leases decreased by $40 to $685 as at September 30, 2019, as compared to $725 as at June 30, 2019. This was due to the repayment of finance leases in the Singapore and Malaysia operations. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in a finance lease in the Singapore operation.

Operating lease right of use assets and the corresponding leased liability were $614 and $581 respectively as of September 30, 2019, after taking into effect the new accounting standard, ASC 842 leases.

Liquidity Comparison

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $616 to an inflow of $1,174 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from an inflow of $558 for the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase in net cash inflow provided by operating activities was primarily due to an increase in net income by $257, an increase in cash inflow of $231 from depreciation and amortization, an increase of $172 from inventories and a decrease in cash outflow of $337 from accounts payable and accrued expenses. These were partially offset by a decrease in cash inflow of $419 from other assets.

Net cash used in investing activities increased by $96 to an outflow of $1,665 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 from an outflow of $1,569 for the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase in cash outflow was primarily due to an increase in investment in unrestricted term deposits by $807 and partially offset by a decrease of $714 from the capital expenditure.

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $521, representing a decrease of $2,160, as compared to net cash generated in financing activities of $1,639 during the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in cash outflow was mainly attributable to an increase in cash outflow by $189 from repayment of bank loans, operating and finance leases, a decrease in cash inflow of $199 from proceeds from exercising stock option, a decrease of $3,467 from proceeds from lines of credit and a decrease in proceeds from bank loans by $1,475. These were partially offset by a decrease in cash outflow of $3,124 from repayment of lines of credit.

We believe that our projected cash flows from operations, borrowing availability under our revolving lines of credit, cash on hand, trade credit and the secured bank loan will provide the necessary financial resources to meet our projected cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Critical Accounting Estimates & Policies

Effective as of July 1, 2019, the Company has adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and its related amendments using modified retrospective transition method. We have completed our adoption and implemented policies, processes and controls to support the standard’s measurement and disclosure requirements as described in note 1 to the financial statements included in item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

An evaluation was carried out by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of September 30, 2019, the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable level.  

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Except as discussed below, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2019, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

-38-

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Implementation

We are in the process of implementing an ERP System, as part of a multi-year plan to integrate and upgrade our systems and processes. The implementation of this ERP system is scheduled to occur in phases over a few years, and began with the migration of certain of our operational and financial systems in our Singapore operations to the new ERP system during the second quarter of fiscal 2017.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2018, the operational and financial systems in Singapore were substantially transitioned to the new system. The operational and financial systems in our Malaysia operation were substantially transitioned to the new system during the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

This implementation effort will continue in fiscal 2020, when the operational and financial systems in our Tianjin and Suzhou operations will be substantially transitioned to the new system.

As a phased implementation of this system occurs, we are experiencing certain changes to our processes and procedures which, in turn, result in changes to our internal control over financial reporting. While we expect the new ERP system to strengthen our internal financial controls by automating certain manual processes and standardizing business processes and reporting across our organization, management will continue to evaluate and monitor our internal controls as processes and procedures in each of the affected areas evolve.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The amendments in ASU 2019-07 Codification Updates to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Final Rule Releases No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplifications to improve, update, and simplify its regulations on financial reporting and disclosure. The amendments are effective for all entities upon addition to the FASB Codification.

The amendments in ASU 2018-18 ASC Topic 808: Collaborative Arrangements: Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606 provide more comparability in the presentation of revenue for certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants. The amendments allow organizations to only present units of account in collaborative arrangements that are within the scope of the revenue recognition standard together with revenue accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. The parts of the collaborative arrangement that are not in the scope of the revenue recognition standard should be presented separately from revenue accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. While early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, the Company has not elected to early adopt. The effectiveness of this update is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The amendments in ASU 2018-13 ASC Topic 820: Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements based on the concepts in the Concepts Statement, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. While early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, the Company has not elected to early adopt. The effectiveness of this update is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The amendments in ASU 2017-04 ASC Topic 350 — 'Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (“ASC Topic 350”) simplify the test for goodwill impairment. For public companies, these amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those periods. While early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, the Company has not elected to early adopt. The effectiveness of this update is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s presentation of consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The amendments in ASU 2019-05 ASC Topic 326: Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (“ASC Topic 326”): Targeted Transition Relief is issued to provide option to measure certain types of assets at fair value which allows companies to irrevocably elect, upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the fair value option on financial instruments that (1) were previously recorded at amortized cost and (2) are within the scope of ASC 326-20 if the instruments are eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825-10. The amendments in ASU 2018-19 ASC Topic 326: Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments – Credit Losses clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of the credit losses standard, but rather, should be accounted for in accordance with the lease’s standard. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 ASC Topic 326: Financial Instruments — Credit losses (“ASC Topic 326”) are issued for the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. For public companies that are SEC filers, ASC Topic 326 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. While early application will be permitted for all organizations for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, the Company has not yet determined if it will early adopt. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements.

Other new pronouncements issued but not yet effective until after September 30, 2019 are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Rental Property I - Mao Ye Property

In fiscal 2008, TTCQ purchased an office in Chongqing, China from MaoYe Property Ltd. (“MaoYe”), for a total cash purchase price of RMB 5,554, or approximately $894. TTCQ identified a new tenant and signed a new rental agreement (653 square meters at a monthly rent of RMB 39, or approximately $6) on August 1, 2015 which expires on July 31, 2020. On April 1, 2019, a supplementary agreement was signed to revise the monthly rent to RMB 20, or approximately $2.6 for 403 square meters for the remaining 2 unsold units. During the 2019 fiscal year, the Company sold thirteen of the fifteen units constituting the Mao Ye Property. Management has decided not to sell the remaining two units of Mao Ye properties, considering the market conditions in China.

Property purchased from MaoYe generated a rental income of $8 during the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $22 for the same period in last fiscal year.

Rental Property II - JiangHuai

In fiscal year 2010, TTCQ purchased eight units of commercial property in Chongqing, China from Chongqing JiangHuai Real Estate Development Co. Ltd. (“JiangHuai”) for a total purchase price of RMB 3,600, or approximately $580. Although these units were rented in the past, all eight units are currently vacant and TTCQ is working with the developer to find a suitable buyer to purchase all the commercial units. TTCQ has yet to receive the title deed for these properties. TTCQ is in the legal process to obtain the title deed, which is dependent on JiangHuai completing the entire project.

Property purchased from JiangHuai did not generate any rental income during the three months ended September 30, 2019 or during the same period in the prior fiscal year.

Rental Property III – FuLi

In fiscal 2010, TTCQ entered into a Memorandum Agreement with Chongqing FuLi Real Estate Development Co. Ltd. (“FuLi”) to purchase two commercial properties totaling 311.99 square meters (“office space”) located in Jiang Bei District Chongqing. . The total purchase price committed and paid was RMB 4,025, or approximately $648. The development was completed and the property was handed over in April 2013 and the title deed was received during the third quarter of fiscal 2014.

The two commercial properties were leased to third parties under two separate rental agreements. One of such leases provides for a rent increase of 6% every year on May 1, commencing in 2019 until the rental agreement expired on April 30, 2021. For the other leased property (which lease expired on March 31, 2018), TTCQ has signed a rental agreement to rent out the 161 square meters at a monthly rent of RMB 10, or approximately $2 on November 1, 2018 which expires on October 31, 2019. In September 2019, TTCQ has renewed the agreement at the same month rent of RMB 10 or approximately $2 for a period of one year.

Properties purchased from Fu Li generated a rental income of $9 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, and $5 for the same period in the last fiscal year.

Summary

Total rental income for all investment properties in China was $17 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $27 for the same period in the last fiscal year.

Depreciation expenses for all investment properties in China were $18 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $14 for the same period in the last fiscal year.

Accounts Receivable, after Allowance for Credit Loss [Abstract]

TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. The Company performs continuing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions, and although management generally does not require collateral, letters of credit may be required from the customers in certain circumstances.

Senior management reviews accounts receivable on a periodic basis to determine if any receivables will potentially be uncollectible. Management includes any accounts receivable balances that are determined to be uncollectible in the allowance for doubtful accounts. After all reasonable attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance.  Based on the information available, management believed the allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019 was adequate.  

The following table represents the changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts:

STOCK OPTIONS

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

STOCK OPTIONS

On September 24, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted the 2007 Employee Stock Option Plan (the “2007 Employee Plan”) and the 2007 Directors Equity Incentive Plan (the “2007 Directors Plan”) each of which was approved by the shareholders on December 3, 2007. Each of those plans was amended during the term of such plan to increase the number of shares covered thereby. As of the last amendment thereof, the 2007 Employee Plan covered an aggregate of 600,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock and the 2007 Directors Plan covered an aggregate of 500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Each of those plans terminated by its respective terms on September 24, 2017. These two plans were administered by the Board, which also established the terms of the awards.

On September 14, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted the 2017 Employee Stock Option Plan (the “2017 Employee Plan”) and the 2017 Directors Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Directors Plan”) each of which was approved by the shareholders on December 4, 2017. Each of these plans is administered by the Board of Directors of the Company.

Assumptions

The fair value for the options granted were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions, assuming no expected dividends: 

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2019		2018
Expected volatility	45.38%to 97.48%		60.41% to 104.94 %
Risk-free interest rate	0.30% to 2.35%		0.30% to 0.78 %
Expected life (years)		2.5 -3.25		2.50

The expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. Due to higher volatility, the observation is made on a daily basis for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The observation period covered is consistent with the expected life of options. The expected life of the options granted to employees has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method as prescribed by ASC Topic 718 Stock Based Compensation, which, among other provisions, allows companies without access to adequate historical data about employee exercise behavior to use a simplified approach for estimating the expected life of a "plain vanilla" option grant. The simplified rule for estimating the expected life of such an option is the average of the time to vesting and the full term of the option. The risk-free rate is consistent with the expected life of the stock options and is based on the United States Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

2017 Employee Stock Option Plan

The Company’s 2017 Employee Plan permits the grant of stock options to its employees covering up to an aggregate of 300,000 shares of Common Stock. Under the 2017 Employee Plan, all options must be granted with an exercise price of not less than fair value as of the grant date and the options granted must be exercisable within a maximum of ten years after the date of grant, or such lesser period of time as is set forth in the stock option agreements. The options may be exercisable (a) immediately as of the effective date of the stock option agreement granting the option, or (b) in accordance with a schedule related to the date of the grant of the option, the date of first employment, or such other date as may be set by the Compensation Committee. Generally, options granted under the 2017 Employee Plan are exercisable within five years after the date of grant, and vest over the period as follows: 25% vesting on the grant date and the remaining balance vesting in equal installments on the next three succeeding anniversaries of the grant date. The share-based compensation will be recognized in terms of the grade method on a straight-line basis for each separately vesting portion of the award. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the 2017 Employee Plan).

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, the Company did not grant any options pursuant to the 2017 Employee Plan. There were no stock options exercised during the three-month period ended September 30, 2019. The Company recognized $8 stock-based compensation expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company adopted ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period.  Diluted EPS give effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during a period.  In computing diluted EPS, the average price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options and warrants.

Options to purchase 673,500 shares of Common Stock at exercise prices ranging from $2.69 to $5.98 per share were outstanding as of September 30, 2019. No outstanding options were excluded in the computation of diluted EPS for fiscal year 2020 since all options were dilutive.

Options to purchase 582,500 shares of Common Stock at exercise prices ranging from $2.69 to $5.98 per share were outstanding as of September 30, 2018. No outstanding options were excluded in the computation of diluted EPS for fiscal year 2019 since all options were dilutive.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company generates revenue primarily from 3 different segments: Manufacturing, Testing and Distribution. The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when there is approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. The Company’s revenues are measured based on consideration stipulated in the arrangement with each customer, net of any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes. The revenues are recognized as separate performance obligations that are satisfied by transferring control of the product or service to the customer.

The testing service industry (which performs structural and electronic tests of semiconductor devices), the designing and manufacturing of equipment (which equipment tests the structural integrity of integrated circuits and other products), distribution of various products from other manufacturers in Singapore and Southeast Asia, and the real estate segment in China.

The revenue allocated to individual countries was based on where the customers were located. The allocation of the cost of equipment, the current year investment in new equipment and depreciation expense have been made on the basis of the primary purpose for which the equipment was acquired.

Significant Judgments

The Company’s arrangements with its customers include various combinations of products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. A product or service is considered distinct if it is separately identifiable from other deliverables in the arrangement and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer.

The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis (“SSP”). Determining the SSP for each distinct performance obligation and allocation of consideration from an arrangement to the individual performance obligations and the appropriate timing of revenue recognition are significant judgments with respect to these arrangements. The Company typically establishes the SSP based on observable prices of products or services sold separately in comparable circumstances to similar clients. The Company may estimate SSP by considering internal costs, profit objectives and pricing practices in certain circumstances.

Warranties, discounts and allowances are estimated using historical and recent data trends. The Company includes estimates in the transaction price only to the extent that a significant reversal of revenue is not probable in subsequent periods. The Company’s products and services are generally not sold with a right of return, nor has the Company experienced significant returns from or refunds to its customers.

Manufacturing

The Company primarily derives revenue from the sale of both front-end and back-end semiconductor test equipment and related peripherals, maintenance and support of all these products, installation and training services and the sale of spare parts. The Company’s revenues are measured based on consideration stipulated in the arrangement with each customer, net of any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes.

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customer. The Company uses judgment to evaluate whether the control has transferred by considering several indicators, including:

● whether the Company has a present right to payment;

● the customer has legal title;

● the customer has physical possession;

● the customer has significant risk and rewards of ownership; and

● the customer has accepted the product, or whether customer acceptance is considered a formality based on history of acceptance of similar products (for example, when the customer has previously accepted the same equipment, with the same specifications, and when we can objectively demonstrate that the tool meets all of the required acceptance criteria, and when the installation of the system is deemed perfunctory).

Not all of the indicators need to be met for the Company to conclude that control has transferred to the customer. In circumstances in which revenue is recognized prior to the product acceptance, the portion of revenue associated with its performance obligations of product installation and training services are deferred and recognized upon acceptance.

The majority of sales under the Manufacturing segment include a standard 12-month warranty. The Company has concluded that the warranty provided for standard products are assurance type warranties and are not separate performance obligations. Warranty provided for customized products are service warranties and are separate performance obligations. Transaction prices are allocated to this performance obligation using cost plus method. The portion of revenue associated with warranty service is deferred and recognized as revenue over the warranty period, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of warranty services provided by the Company.

Testing

The Company rendered testing services to manufacturers and purchasers of semiconductors and other entities who either lack testing capabilities or whose in-house screening facilities are insufficient. The Company primarily derives testing revenue from burn-in services, manpower supply and other associated services. SSP is directly observable from the sales orders. Revenue is allocated to performance obligations satisfied at a point in time depending upon terms of the sales order. Generally, there is no other performance obligation other than what has been stated inside the sales order for each of these sales.

Terms of contract that may indicate potential variable consideration included warranty, late delivery penalty and reimbursement to solve non-conformance issues for rejected products. Based on historical and recent data trends, it is concluded that these terms of the contract do not represent potential variable consideration. The transaction price is not contingent on the occurrence of any future event.

Distribution

The Company distributes complementary products particularly equipment, industrial products and components by manufacturers mainly from the U.S., Europe, Taiwan and Japan. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales at a point in time when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customer. The Company uses judgment to evaluate whether the control has transferred by considering several indicators discussed above. The Company recognizes the revenue at a point in time, generally upon shipment or delivery of the products to the customer or distributors, depending upon terms of the sales order.

All inter-segment revenue was from the manufacturing segment to the testing and distribution segments. Total inter-segment revenue was $381 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $285 for the same period in the last fiscal year.  Corporate assets mainly consisted of cash and prepaid expenses. Corporate expenses mainly consisted of stock option expenses, salaries, insurance, professional expenses and directors' fees. Corporate expenses are allocated to the four segments. The following segment information table includes segment operating income or loss after including the corporate expenses allocated to the segments, which gets eliminated in the consolidation.

ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

Penang Property

During the fourth quarter of 2015, the operations in Malaysia planned to sell its factory building in Penang, Malaysia. In accordance with ASC Topic 360, during fiscal year 2015 the property was reclassified from investment property, which had a net book value of RM 371, or approximately $98*, to assets held for sale, since there was an intention to sell the factory building. In May 2015, Trio-Tech Malaysia was approached by a potential buyer to purchase the factory building. On September 14, 2015, application to sell the property was rejected by Penang Development Corporation (PDC). The rejection was because the business activity of the purchaser was not suitable to the industry that is being promoted on said property. PDC made an offer to purchase the property, which was not at the expected value and the offer expired on March 28, 2016 and no further conversations with PDC have occurred since. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019, Management entered into a Sales and Purchase Agreement with a potential buyer. The completion of sale is subject to the approval by local government. The net book value of the building was RM371, or $88, as at September 30, 2019 and RM371, or $89, as at June 30, 2019.

The following table presents the Company’s assets held for sale in Malaysia as of September 30, 2019 and June 30, 2019. *The exchange rate is based on the exchange rate as of June 30, 2015 published by the Monetary Authority of Singapore.

Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Comparability

Effective on the first day of fiscal 2020, the company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (“ASC 842”). Prior periods were not retrospectively restated, and accordingly, the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019, and the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were prepared using accounting standards that were different than those in effect for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Leases-Lessee

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 842 introduces new requirements to increase transparency and comparability among organizations for leasing transactions for both lessees and lessors. It requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. These leases will be either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition.

The standard provided an alternative modified retrospective transition method. Under this method, the cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings is recognized on the date of adoption (July 1, 2019). The Company adopted ASC 842 as of July 1, 2019, and applied the alternative modified retrospective transition method requiring application of the new guidance to all leases existing at, or entered into on or after, the date of adoption, i.e. July 1, 2019.

The Company applies the guidance in ASC 842 to individual leases of assets. When the Company receives substantially all of the economic benefits from and directs the use of specified property, plant and equipment, transactions give rise to leases. The Company’s classes of assets include real estate leases.

Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets, current portion and long term portion of operating leases in our consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Finance leases are included in plant and equipment, current portion and long term portion of finance leases in our consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has elected the practical expedient within ASC 842 to not separate lease and non-lease components within lease transactions for all classes of assets. Additionally, the Company has elected the short-term lease exception for all classes of assets, does not apply the recognition requirements for leases of 12 months or less, and recognizes lease payments for short-term leases as expense either straight-line over the lease term or as incurred depending on whether the lease payments are fixed or variable. These elections are applied consistently for all leases.

As part of applying the transition method, the Company has elected to apply the package of transition practical expedients within the new guidance. As required by the new standard, these expedients have been elected as a package and are consistently applied across the Company’s lease portfolio. Given this election, the Company need not reassess:

● whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases

● the lease classification for any expired or existing leases

● treatment of initial direct costs relating to any existing leases

When discount rates implicit in leases cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the applicable incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to perform lease classification tests on lease components and to measure lease liabilities and ROU assets. The incremental borrowing rate used by the Company was based on baseline rates and adjusted by the credit spreads commensurate with the Company’s secured borrowing rate, over a similar term. At each reporting period when there is a new lease initiated, the rates established for that quarter will be used.

In applying the alternative modified retrospective transition method, the Company measured lease liabilities at the present value of the sum of remaining minimum rental payments (as defined under ASC Topic 840). The present value of lease liabilities has been measured using the Company’s incremental borrowing rates as of July 1, 2019 (the date of initial application). Additionally, ROU assets for these operating leases have been measured as the initial measurement of application lease liabilities adjusted for reinstatement liabilities.

The adoption of this new standard at July 1, 2019, and the application of the modified retrospective transition approach resulted in the following changes in the Company’s financial report:

(1) assets increased by $614, primarily representing the recognition of ROU assets for operating leases

(2) liabilities increased by $581, primarily representing the recognition of lease liabilities for operating leases.

Leases-Lessor

For the Company as a lessor, all of our leases will continue to be classified as operating leases under the new standard. We do not expect the new standard to have a material effect on our financial statements and we do not expect a significant change in our leasing activities between now and adoption.

INCOME TAX

3 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2019

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

INCOME TAX

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes and income tax assets and liabilities, including evaluating uncertainties in the application of accounting principles and complex tax laws. The statute of limitations, in general, is open for years 2014 to 2019 for tax authorities in those jurisdictions to audit or examine income tax returns. The Company is under annual review by the tax authorities of the respective jurisdiction to which the subsidiaries belong.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017, and reduces the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, eliminated corporate Alternative Minimum Tax, modified rules for expensing capital investment, and limited the deduction of interest expense for certain companies. The Act is a fundamental change to the taxation of multinational companies, including a shift from a system of worldwide taxation with some deferral elements to a territorial system, current taxation of certain foreign income, a minimum tax on low tax foreign earnings, and new measures to curtail base erosion and promote U.S. production.

Due to the enactment of Tax Act, the Company is subject to a tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”).  GILTI is a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations. Companies subject to GILTI have the option to account for the GILTI tax as a period cost if and when incurred, or to recognize deferred taxes for temporary differences including outside basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI. The Company has elected to account for GILTI as a period cost, and therefore has included GILTI expense amounting to $35 for the period ended September 30, 2019.

The Company's income tax expense was $Nil and $74 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively. Our effective tax rate (“ETR”) from continuing operations was 0% and 84.1% for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 respectively. The following items caused the caused the quarterly ETR to be significantly different:

1). During 3 months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a income tax benefit of $35 as a result of tax refund in China operation which reduced the ETR by 15%.  During the quarter, the Company also recorded a provision of GILTI for $35.

2). During 3 months ended September 30, 2018, the company recorded a income tax expenses of $74 which is absent during the 3 months ended September 2019 due to pre-tax income changes as well as various discrete items.

The Company accrues penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits when necessary as a component of penalties and interest expenses, respectively. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits or related accrued penalties or interest expenses at September 30, 2019.

In assessing the ability to realize the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on these criteria, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will not realize the benefits of the federal, state, and foreign deductible differences. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been established.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2019

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The amendments in ASU 2019-07 Codification Updates to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Final Rule Releases No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplifications to improve, update, and simplify its regulations on financial reporting and disclosure. The amendments are effective for all entities upon addition to the FASB Codification.

The amendments in ASU 2018-18 ASC Topic 808: Collaborative Arrangements: Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606 provide more comparability in the presentation of revenue for certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants. The amendments allow organizations to only present units of account in collaborative arrangements that are within the scope of the revenue recognition standard together with revenue accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. The parts of the collaborative arrangement that are not in the scope of the revenue recognition standard should be presented separately from revenue accounted for under the revenue recognition standard. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. While early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, the Company has not elected to early adopt. The effectiveness of this update is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The amendments in ASU 2018-13 ASC Topic 820: Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements based on the concepts in the Concepts Statement, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. While early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, the Company has not elected to early adopt. The effectiveness of this update is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The amendments in ASU 2017-04 ASC Topic 350 — 'Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (“ASC Topic 350”) simplify the test for goodwill impairment. For public companies, these amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those periods. While early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, the Company has not elected to early adopt. The effectiveness of this update is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s presentation of consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The amendments in ASU 2019-05 ASC Topic 326: Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (“ASC Topic 326”): Targeted Transition Relief is issued to provide option to measure certain types of assets at fair value which allows companies to irrevocably elect, upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the fair value option on financial instruments that (1) were previously recorded at amortized cost and (2) are within the scope of ASC 326-20 if the instruments are eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825-10. The amendments in ASU 2018-19 ASC Topic 326: Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments – Credit Losses clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of the credit losses standard, but rather, should be accounted for in accordance with the lease’s standard. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 ASC Topic 326: Financial Instruments — Credit losses (“ASC Topic 326”) are issued for the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. For public companies that are SEC filers, ASC Topic 326 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. While early application will be permitted for all organizations for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, the Company has not yet determined if it will early adopt. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements.

Other new pronouncements issued but not yet effective until after September 30, 2019 are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

a) On December 2, 2010, the Company signed a Joint Venture agreement (“agreement”) with Jia Sheng Property Development Co. Ltd. (“Developer”) to form a new company, Junzhou Co., Limited (“Joint Venture” or “Junzhou”) to joint develop the “Singapore Themed Park” project (the “project”), where the Company paid RMB10 million for the 10% investment in the joint venture. The Developer paid Company management fee of RMB5 million in cash upon signing of the agreement with a remaining fee of RMB5 million payable upon fulfilment of certain conditions in accordance with the agreement. The Company further reduced its investment by RMB137, or approximately $22 towards the losses from operations incurred by the joint venture.

On October 2, 2013, the Company disposed its entire 10% interest in the joint venture. The Company recognized the disposal of its 10% investment in Jun Zhou based on the recorded net book value of RMB5 million or equivalent to US$803K, from net considerations paid, in accordance with US GAAP under ASC Topic 845 Non-monetary Consideration, and its presented under “Other Assets” as non-current assets to defer the recognition of the gain on the disposal of the 10% interest in joint venture investment until such time that the consideration is paid, so that the gain can be ascertained;

b) Amounts of RMB 5,000 or approximately $814 as disclosed in Note 5, plus the interest receivable on long term loan receivable of RMB 1,250 or approximately $200 and impairment on interest of RMB 906 or approximately $150.

The shop lots are to be delivered to TTCQ upon completion of the construction of the shop lots in Singapore Themed Resort Project. The initial targeted date of completion was December 31, 2016. Based on discussion with the developers, the completion date is currently estimated to be December 31, 2021. The delay was primarily due to the time needed by the developers to work with various parties to inject sufficient funds into this project. Based on the available information, management believes that the developer is capable of working with new investors to complete certain phases of this project.

ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2019

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Comparability

Effective on the first day of fiscal 2020, the company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (“ASC 842”). Prior periods were not retrospectively restated, and accordingly, the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019, and the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were prepared using accounting standards that were different than those in effect for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Leases-Lessee

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 842 introduces new requirements to increase transparency and comparability among organizations for leasing transactions for both lessees and lessors. It requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. These leases will be either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition.

The standard provided an alternative modified retrospective transition method. Under this method, the cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings is recognized on the date of adoption (July 1, 2019). The Company adopted ASC 842 as of July 1, 2019, and applied the alternative modified retrospective transition method requiring application of the new guidance to all leases existing at, or entered into on or after, the date of adoption, i.e. July 1, 2019.

The Company applies the guidance in ASC 842 to individual leases of assets. When the Company receives substantially all of the economic benefits from and directs the use of specified property, plant and equipment, transactions give rise to leases. The Company’s classes of assets include real estate leases.

Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets, current portion and long term portion of operating leases in our consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Finance leases are included in plant and equipment, current portion and long term portion of finance leases in our consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has elected the practical expedient within ASC 842 to not separate lease and non-lease components within lease transactions for all classes of assets. Additionally, the Company has elected the short-term lease exception for all classes of assets, does not apply the recognition requirements for leases of 12 months or less, and recognizes lease payments for short-term leases as expense either straight-line over the lease term or as incurred depending on whether the lease payments are fixed or variable. These elections are applied consistently for all leases.

As part of applying the transition method, the Company has elected to apply the package of transition practical expedients within the new guidance. As required by the new standard, these expedients have been elected as a package and are consistently applied across the Company’s lease portfolio. Given this election, the Company need not reassess:

● whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases

● the lease classification for any expired or existing leases

● treatment of initial direct costs relating to any existing leases

When discount rates implicit in leases cannot be readily determined, the Company uses the applicable incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to perform lease classification tests on lease components and to measure lease liabilities and ROU assets. The incremental borrowing rate used by the Company was based on baseline rates and adjusted by the credit spreads commensurate with the Company’s secured borrowing rate, over a similar term. At each reporting period when there is a new lease initiated, the rates established for that quarter will be used.

In applying the alternative modified retrospective transition method, the Company measured lease liabilities at the present value of the sum of remaining minimum rental payments (as defined under ASC Topic 840). The present value of lease liabilities has been measured using the Company’s incremental borrowing rates as of July 1, 2019 (the date of initial application). Additionally, ROU assets for these operating leases have been measured as the initial measurement of application lease liabilities adjusted for reinstatement liabilities.

The adoption of this new standard at July 1, 2019, and the application of the modified retrospective transition approach resulted in the following changes in the Company’s financial report:

(1) assets increased by $614, primarily representing the recognition of ROU assets for operating leases

(2) liabilities increased by $581, primarily representing the recognition of lease liabilities for operating leases.

Leases-Lessor

For the Company as a lessor, all of our leases will continue to be classified as operating leases under the new standard. We do not expect the new standard to have a material effect on our financial statements and we do not expect a significant change in our leasing activities between now and adoption.

CONTRACT BALANCES

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and collections may result in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities). The Company’s payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment of 70% to 90% of total contract consideration within 30 to 60 days of shipment, with the remainder payable within 30 days of acceptance. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, the Company has determined that its contracts generally do not include a significant financing component.

Contract assets were recorded under other receivable while contract liabilities were recorded under accrued expenses in the balance sheet. 

The following table is the reconciliation of contract balances.

	Sept. 30,2019 (Unaudited)		Jun 30,2019  (Unaudited)
Trade Accounts Receivable		7,520		7,113
Accounts Payable		3,170		3,272
Contract Assets		517		419
Contract Liabilities		496		501

Remaining Performance Obligation

As at September 30, 2019, the Company had $941 of remaining performance obligations, which represents our obligation to deliver products and services. Given the profile of contract terms, approximately 50 percent of this amount is expected to be recognized as revenue over the next two years, remaining of the amount is expected to be recognized between three and five years.
