Accounting Policies [Abstract]
INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	1. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The Company consists of CPI Aerostructures, Inc. (“CPI”), Welding Metallurgy, Inc. (“WMI”), a wholly owned subsidiary acquired on December 20, 2018, and Compac Development Corporation (“Compac”), a wholly owned subsidiary of WMI, collectively the “Company.” The acquisition of WMI and Compac is referred to throughout this document as the “WMI Acquisition”. An operating segment, in part, is a component of an enterprise whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance. Operating segments may be aggregated only to a limited extent. The Company’s CODM, the Chief Executive Officer, reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. The Company has determined that it has a single operating and reportable segment. The consolidated financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2020 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and notes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. All adjustments that, in the opinion of the management, are necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been reflected. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year or any other interim period. The Company maintains its cash in five financial institutions. The balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. From time to time, the Company’s balances may exceed insurance limits. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had $6,647,111 of uninsured balances. The Company limits its credit risk by selecting financial institutions considered to be highly creditworthy. The Company currently has a shareholders' deficit and has experienced continuing losses from operations and negative cash flows from operations year to date that collectively represent significant risks to the Company to continue to operate as a going concern. To address these matters, the Company has a) negotiated a revised credit facility with BankUnited effective August 24, 2020, b) begun negotiations with customers to exit or renegotiate unprofitable contracts, c) obtained and is seeking additional progress payment and advance payment customer contract funding provisions, d) initiated new procedures to reduce investments in inventory and contract assets, e) remained focused on its military segment which has proven to be less susceptible to COVID-19 related impacts and f) maintained a strong (approximately $209 million) backlog of funded orders, 98% of which are for military programs. Based upon management's assessment of the identified significant risks and the execution of the plans described above, management believes that substantial risk does not exist as to whether the Company's liquidity and debt resources will be sufficient to meet its obligations as a going concern through a year and a day from the date of this filing. WMI Acquisition: The Company completed the WMI Acquisition on December 20, 2018. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 805. Accordingly, the Company recorded the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. The purchase price for the acquisition was $7.9 million, which was subject to a post-closing working capital adjustment. $2 million of the purchase price was placed in escrow at closing and was to be released after the completion of the working capital adjustment and for the indemnification contingencies. Air Industries Group objected to the Company’s calculation of the post-closing working capital adjustment and rejected the determination of BDO USA, LLP, the independent accountant appointed by the parties to resolve the dispute. On September 27, 2019, the Company filed a notice of motion in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, against Air Industries seeking, among other things, a judgment against Air Industries in the amount of approximately $4.1 million. In October 2019, Air Industries and the Company jointly authorized the release to the Company of approximately $619,000 from escrow, which represents the value of certain conceded items. The remaining escrowed amount of approximately $1,381,000 is shown as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet. The additional disputed amount of approximately $2.1 million is not on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet due to the uncertainty of collection. On October 1, 2020, the court denied the Company’s motion on procedural grounds, holding that the Company must commence a special proceeding to obtain the relief sought. The court’s decision was made without prejudice and does not resolve the working capital dispute. We are evaluating whether to appeal the decision or commence a new proceeding, among other options. In the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company recorded adjustments to the provisional estimates of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from WMI related to the BDO determination. The Company has determined the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired and has recorded the fair value of the assets acquired as of December 31, 2019 assuming only the collection of the remaining amount escrowed which is expected to be realized in the next twelve months. Collection of the additional $2.1 million is uncertain. COVID-19: In March 2020, the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The pandemic has negatively affected the U.S. and global economy, disrupted global supply chains and financial markets, and has resulted in shelter in place orders. The Company has followed the recommendations of government and health authorities to minimize exposure risk for its employees, including having employees work modified hours or remotely since on or about March 19, 2020, practicing social distancing, and performing deep cleaning of its facilities. We have also taken actions to support our community in addressing challenges posed by the pandemic, including the donation of personal protective equipment. There are many uncertainties regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Company is closely monitoring the impact of the pandemic on all aspects of its business, including how it will impact its employees, customers, suppliers, and liquidity. On March 20, 2020, the Company was notified that it was considered part of the Defense Industrial Base Essential Critical Infrastructure Workforce and, as such, has remained open during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the extent to which COVID-19 may affect our operations will depend on future developments which are highly uncertain, including the duration of the outbreak, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions to contain the coronavirus or address its impact, among others. The Company is unable to predict the impact that COVID-19 will have on its financial position and operating results.
