Overview

SigmaTron is a Delaware corporation, which was organized on November 16, 1993, and commenced operations when it became the successor to all of the assets and liabilities of SigmaTron L.P., an Illinois limited partnership, through a reorganization on February 8, 1994.

The Company operates in one business segment as an independent provider of electronic manufacturing services (“EMS”), which includes printed circuit board assemblies and completely assembled (box-build) electronic products.  In connection with the production of assembled products, the Company also provides services to its customers, including (1) automatic and manual assembly and testing of products; (2) material sourcing and procurement; (3) manufacturing and test engineering support; (4) design services; (5) warehousing and distribution services; and (6) assistance in obtaining product approval from governmental and other regulatory bodies.  The Company provides these manufacturing services through an international network of facilities located in the United States, Mexico, China, Vietnam and Taiwan.

The Company provides manufacturing and assembly services ranging from the assembly of individual components to the assembly and testing of box-build electronic products.  The Company has the ability to produce assemblies requiring mechanical as well as electronic capabilities.  The products assembled by the

4

Company are then incorporated into finished products sold in various industries, particularly industrial electronics, consumer electronics and medical/life sciences.  In some instances the Company manufactures the completed finished product for its customers.

The Company operates manufacturing facilities in Elk Grove Village, Illinois United States of America (“U.S.”); Union City, California U.S.; Acuna, Chihuahua and Tijuana, Mexico; Suzhou, China; and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.  In addition, the Company maintains an International Procurement Office (“IPO”) in Taipei, Taiwan.  The Company also provides design services in Elgin, Illinois.  The Company has an information technology office in Taichung, Taiwan. 

The Company’s international footprint provides our customers with flexibility within the Company to manufacture in China, Mexico, Vietnam or the U.S.  We believe this strategy will continue to serve the Company well as its customers continuously evaluate their supply chain strategies.

Products and Services

The Company provides a broad range of electronic and electromechanical manufacturing related outsourcing solutions for its customers.  These solutions incorporate the Company’s knowledge and expertise in the EMS industry to provide its customers with an international network of manufacturing facilities, advanced manufacturing technologies, complete supply chain management, responsive and flexible customer service, as well as product design, test and engineering support.  The Company’s EMS solutions are available from inception of product concept through the ultimate delivery of a finished product.  Such technologies and services include the following:

Manufacturing and Testing Services:  The Company’s core business is the assembly and testing of all types of electronic printed circuit board assemblies (“PCBA”) and often incorporating these PCBAs into electronic modules used in all types of devices and products that depend on electronics for their operation.  This assembly work utilizes state of the art manufacturing and test equipment to deliver highly reliable products to the Company’s customers.  The Company supports new product introduction (“NPI”), low volume / high mix as well as high volume/ low mix assembly work at all levels of complexity.  Assembly services include pin-through-hole (“PTH”) components, surface mount (“SMT”) components, including ball grid array (“BGA”), part-on-part components, conformal coating, parylene coating and others.  Test services include and are not limited to, in-circuit, automated optical inspection (“AOI”), functional, burn-in, hi-pot and boundary scan.  From simple component assembly through the most complicated industry testing, the Company offers most of the services required to build electronic devices commercially available in the market today.

Design Services:  To complement the manufacturing services it offers its customers, the Company also offers design for manufacturing (“DFM”), and design for test (“DFT”) review services to help customers ensure that the products they have designed are optimized for production and testing.  The Company also offers complete product design services.

Supply Chain Management:  The Company provides complete supply chain management for the procurement of components needed to build customers’ products.  This includes the procurement and management of all types of electronic components and related mechanical parts such as plastics and metals.  The Company’s resources supporting this activity are provided both on a plant specific basis as well as globally through its IPO in Taipei, Taiwan.  Each of its sites is linked together using the same Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) system and custom IScore software tools with real-time on-line visibility for customer access.  The Company procures material from major manufacturers and distributors of electronic parts all over the world.

The Company relies on numerous third-party suppliers for components used in the Company’s production process.  Certain of these components are available only from single-sources or a limited number of suppliers.  In addition, a customer’s specifications may require the Company to obtain components from a single-source or a small number of suppliers.  In the past twelve months the component marketplace has experienced shortages of various components, which in some cases has delayed delivery of product to customers.  The loss of any such suppliers could have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.  Further, the Company could operate at a cost disadvantage compared to competitors who have greater direct

5

buying power from suppliers.  The Company does not enter into long-term purchase agreements with major or single-source suppliers.  The Company believes that short-term purchase orders with its suppliers provides flexibility, given that the Company’s orders are based on the changing needs of its customers.

Warehousing and Distribution:  The Company provides both in-house and third party warehousing, shipping, and customs brokerage for border crossings as part of its service offering.  This includes international shipping, drop shipments to the end customer, as well as, support of inventory optimization activities such as kanban and consignment.

Green, Sustainability, and Social Responsible Initiatives:  The Company supports initiatives that promote sustainability, green environment and social responsibility.  The Company requires its supply chain to meet all government imposed requirements in these areas and helps its customers in achieving effective compliance.  Those include, but are not limited to, Restrictions of Hazardous Substances (“RoHS”), Restriction of Chemicals (“REACH”) and Conflict Minerals regulations.

Manufacturing Location and Certifications:  The Company’s manufacturing and warehousing locations are strategically located to support our customers with locations in Elk Grove Village, Illinois U.S.; Union City, California U.S.; Acuna, Chihuahua and Tijuana, Mexico; Suzhou, China and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.  The Company’s ability to transition manufacturing to lower cost regions without jeopardizing flexibility and service, differentiates it from many competitors.  Manufacturing certifications and registrations are location specific, and include ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, IATF 16949:2009, Medical ISO 13485:2016 and FDB Certification, Aerospace AS9100D and International Traffic in Arms Regulations (“ITAR”) certifications. 

Markets and Customers

The Company’s customers are in the industrial electronics, consumer electronics and medical/life sciences industries.  As of April 30, 2019, the Company had approximately 180 active customers ranging from Fortune 500 companies to small, privately held enterprises.

The following table shows, for the periods indicated, the percentage of net sales to the principal end-user markets it serves.

	Percent of Net Sales
Markets	Typical OEM Application	Fiscal 2019 %	Fiscal 2018 %
Industrial Electronics	Health club equipment, gaming, controls, smart grid, IOT connectivity	55.2	54.8
Consumer Electronics	Appliances/white goods, automotive-vision systems, E-writers	39.6	40.4
Medical/Life Sciences	Operating tables, battery packs, dental equipment, sterilizers	5.2	4.8
Total		100%	100%

For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, the Company’s largest two customers, Whirlpool Inc. and Electrolux, accounted for 15.9% and 15.8%, respectively, of the Company’s net sales.  For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018, Electrolux and Whirlpool Inc., accounted for 20.2% and 13.3%, respectively, of the Company’s net sales.  The Company believes that Electrolux and Whirlpool will continue to account for a significant percentage of the Company’s net sales, although the percentage of net sales may vary from period to period.

Sales and Marketing

Many of the members of the Company’s senior management are actively involved in sales and marketing efforts, and the Company has four direct sales employees.  The Company markets its services through five independent manufacturers’ representative organizations that together currently employ 15 sales personnel in the United States and Canada.  Independent manufacturers’ representatives’ organizations receive variable commissions based on orders received by the Company and are assigned specific accounts, not territories.  In addition, the Company markets itself through its website and tradeshows. 

Mexico, Vietnam and China Operations

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Standard Components de Mexico, S.A, a Mexican corporation, is located in Acuna, Coahuila Mexico, a border town across the Rio Grande River from Del Rio, Texas, and is 155 miles west of San Antonio. Standard Components de Mexico, S.A. was incorporated and commenced operation in 1968 and had 806 employees at April 30, 2019.  The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, AbleMex S.A. de C.V., a Mexican corporation, is located in Tijuana, Baja California Mexico, a border town south of San Diego, California.  AbleMex S.A. de C.V. was incorporated and commenced operations in 2000.  The operation had 364 employees at April 30, 2019.  The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Digital Appliance Controls de Mexico S.A., a Mexican corporation, operates in Chihuahua, Mexico, located approximately 235 miles from El Paso, Texas.  Digital Appliance Controls de Mexico S.A. was incorporated and commenced operations in 1997.  The operation had 513 employees at April 30, 2019.  The Company believes that one of the key benefits to having operations in Mexico is its access to cost-effective labor resources while having geographic proximity to the United States.

The Company’s wholly-owned foreign enterprises, Wujiang SigmaTron Electronics Co., Ltd. and SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., are located in Suzhou, China.  The Company has entered into an agreement with governmental authorities in the economic development zone of Wujiang, Jiangsu Province, Peoples Republic of China, pursuant to which the Company became the lessee of a parcel of land of approximately 100 Chinese acres.  The term of the land lease is 50 years.  The Company built a manufacturing plant, office space and dormitories on this site during 2004.  In fiscal year 2015, the China facility expanded and added 40,000 square feet in warehouse and manufacturing.  The total square footage of the facility is 202,000 and the operation had 505 employees as of April 30, 2019.  Both SigmaTron China entities operate at this site.

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Spitfire Controls (Vietnam) Co. Ltd. is located in Amata Industrial Park, Bien Hoa City, Dong Nai Province, Vietnam, and is 18 miles east of Ho Chi Minh City.  Spitfire Controls (Vietnam) Co. Ltd. was incorporated and commenced operation in 2005 and had 392 employees as of April 30, 2019.

The Company provides funds for salaries, wages, overhead and capital expenditure items as necessary to operate its wholly-owned Mexican, Vietnamese and Chinese subsidiaries and foreign enterprises and the Taiwan IPO.  The Company provides funding in U.S. Dollars, which are exchanged for Pesos, Dong, Renminbi, and New Taiwan dollars.  The fluctuation of currencies from time to time, without an equal or greater increase in inflation, could have a material impact on the financial results of the Company.  The impact of currency fluctuations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, resulted in net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $433,742 compared to net foreign currency gains of $125,000 in the prior year.  In fiscal year 2019, the Company paid approximately $53,090,000 to its foreign subsidiaries.

The consolidated financial statements as of April 30, 2019, include the accounts and transactions of SigmaTron, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Standard Components de Mexico, S.A., AbleMex S.A. de C.V., Digital Appliance Controls de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., Spitfire Controls (Vietnam) Co. Ltd., Spitfire Controls (Cayman) Co. Ltd., wholly-owned foreign enterprises Wujiang SigmaTron Electronics Co., Ltd. and SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., and international procurement office, SigmaTron Taiwan Branch.  The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries operations is the U.S. Dollar.  Intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Competition

The EMS industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid change.  Furthermore, both large and small companies compete in the industry, and many have significantly greater financial resources, more extensive business experience and greater marketing and production capabilities than the Company.  The significant competitive factors in this industry include price, quality, service, timeliness, reliability, the ability to source raw components, and manufacturing and technological capabilities.  The Company believes it can compete on all of these factors.

Consolidation

As a result of consolidation and other transactions involving competitors and other companies in the Company’s markets, the Company occasionally reviews potential transactions relating to its business, products and technologies.  Such transactions could include mergers, acquisitions, strategic alliances, joint ventures, licensing agreements, co-promotion agreements, financing arrangements or other types of transactions.  In the future, the Company may choose to enter into these types of or other transactions at any time depending on available sources of financing, and such transactions could have a material impact on the Company’s business, financial condition or operations.

Governmental Regulations

The Company’s operations are subject to certain foreign government, U.S. federal, state and local regulatory requirements relating to, among others, environmental, waste management, labor and health and safety matters.  Management believes that the Company’s business is operated in compliance with all such regulations, which include European regulations known as RoHS and REACH.  RoHS prohibits the use of lead, mercury and certain other specified substances in products being sold into the European Union.  The Company has RoHS-dedicated manufacturing capabilities at all of its manufacturing operations. REACH imposes information reporting requirements on all listed SVHCs (substances of very high concern).  From time-to-time the Company's customers request REACH required information and certifications on the assemblies the Company manufactures for them.  These requests require the Company to gather information from component suppliers to verify the presence and level of mass of any SVHCs greater than 0.1% in the assemblies the Company manufactures based on customer specifications.  If any SVHCs are present at more than 0.1% of the mass of the item, the specific concentration and mass of the SVHC must be reported to proper authorities by the Company's customer.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) introduced reporting requirements for verification of whether the Company directly (or indirectly through suppliers of components) is purchasing the minerals or metals gold, columbite-tantalite, cassiterite, wolframite and their derivatives (tin, tungsten, and tantalum), that are being provided by sources in the conflict region of the Democratic Republic of Congo (“DRC”).  Consistent with recent prior years, in May 2019, the Company filed Form SD with the Securities and Exchange Commission stating the Company’s supply chain remains DRC conflict undeterminable.

The Company’s costs of compliance with environmental laws, including conflict mineral reporting, is estimated to be a total of approximately $1,600,000 for the three most recently completed fiscal years ending April 30, 2019.  Additional or modified requirements may be imposed in the future.  If such additional or modified requirements are imposed, or if conditions requiring remediation are found to exist, the Company may be required to incur additional expenditures.

Backlog

The Company relies on forecasted orders and purchase orders (firm orders) from its customers to estimate backlog.  The Company’s backlog of firm orders as of April 30, 2019, and April 30, 2018, was approximately $269,660,000 and $219,100,000, respectively.  The Company believes a significant portion of the backlog at April 30, 2019, will ship in fiscal year 2020.  Because customers may cancel or reschedule deliveries, backlog may not be a meaningful indicator of future revenue.  Variations in the magnitude and duration of contracts,

8

forecasts and purchase orders received by the Company and delivery requirements generally may result in substantial fluctuations in backlog from period to period.

Employees

The Company employed approximately 3,106 full-time employees as of April 30, 2019, including 208 engaged in engineering or engineering-related services, 2,510 in manufacturing and 388 in administrative and marketing functions. 

The Company has a labor contract with Chemical & Production Workers Union Local No. 30, AFL-CIO, covering the Company’s workers in Elk Grove Village, Illinois which expires on November 30, 2021. The Company’s Mexican subsidiary, Standard Components de Mexico S.A., has a labor contract with Sindicato De Trabajadores de la Industra Electronica, Similares y Conexos del Estado de Coahuila, C.T.M. covering the Company’s workers in Acuna, Mexico which expires on February 3, 2020.  The Company’s subsidiary located in Tijuana, Mexico has a labor contract with Sindicato Mexico Moderno De Trabajadores De La, Baja California, C.R.O.C.  The contract does not have an expiration date.  The Company’s subsidiary located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, has a labor contract with CONG DOAN CO SO CONG TY TNHH Spitfire Controls Vietnam. The contract expires on February 5, 2020.

Since the time the Company commenced operations, it has not experienced any union-related work stoppages.  The Company believes its relations with its unions and its other employees are good.

The Company’s ability to secure and maintain sufficient credit arrangements is key to its continued operations.

On March 31, 2017, the Company entered into a $35,000,000 senior secured credit facility with U.S. Bank, which expires on March 31, 2022.  The credit facility is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s domestically located assets. The facility allows the Company to choose among interest rates at which it may borrow funds:  the bank fixed rate of five percent or LIBOR plus one and one half percent (effectively 4.09% at April 30, 2019).  Interest is due monthly.  Under the senior secured credit facility, the Company may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $35,000,000 or (ii) an amount equal to a percentage of the eligible accounts receivable plus a percentage of the eligible inventory (the “Borrowing Base”). 

On July 16, 2018, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into an amendment of the revolving line of credit under the senior secured credit facility.  The amended revolving credit facility allows the Company to borrow up to the lesser of (i) $45,000,000 (the“Revolving Line Cap”) less reserves or (ii) the Borrowing Base, but no more than 90% of the Company’s Revolving Line Cap, except that the 90% limitation will expire if the Company’s actual revolving loans for 90 consecutive days after the amendment’s effective date are less than 80% of the Company’s Borrowing Base and the Company maintains a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.2 to 1.0 for four consecutive quarters.  The amendment also imposes sublimits on categories of inventory equal to $10,500,000 on raw materials, $10,000,000 on finished goods and $28,000,000 on all eligible inventory. 

On December 13, 2018, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into an amendment of the revolving credit facility.  The amendment provides an exception to otherwise ineligible foreign receivables for up to $3,000,000 of receivables paid by certain enumerated account debtors outside of the U.S. and Canada.

On March 22, 2019, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into an amendment of the revolving credit facility.  The amendment allows the Company to borrow up to the lesser of (i) theRevolving Line Cap less reserves or (ii) the Borrowing Base, but no more than 95% of the Company’s Revolving Line Cap until August 1, 2019 and 90% on and after August 1, 2019.  As of April 30, 2019, there was $35,727,212 outstanding and $6,645,730 of unused availability under the U.S. Bank facility compared to an outstanding balance of $29,279,631 and $5,720,369 of unused availability at April 30, 2018.  At April 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenant and other restrictive covenants under the credit facility.  Deferred financing costs of $75,083 were capitalized during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, which are amortized over the term of the agreement.  As of April 30, 2019, and April 30, 2018, the unamortized amount offset against outstanding debt was $209,162 and $192,502, respectively.

On March 15, 2019, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., entered into a credit facility with China Construction Bank.  Under the agreement SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. can borrow up to 5,000,000 Renminbi, approximately $743,000 as of April 30, 2019, and the facility is collateralized by Wujiang SigmaTron Electronics Co., Ltd.’s manufacturing building.  Interest is payable monthly and the facility bears a fixed interest rate of 6.09%.  The term of the facility extends to March 14, 2024.  There was no outstanding balance under the facility at April 30, 2019.

The Company is in compliance with its financial covenant and other restrictive covenants and anticipates that its credit facilities, expected future cash flows from operations and leasing resources are adequate to meet its working capital requirements, and fund capital expenditures for the next 12 months.  In addition, if customers delay orders, future payments are not made timely, the Company desires to expand its operations, its business grows more rapidly than expected, or the current economic climate deteriorates, additional financing resources may be necessary. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain equity or debt financing at acceptable terms, or at all, in the future.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to retain or renew its credit agreements in the future, or that any retention or renewal will be on the same terms as currently exist.

Adverse changes in the economy or political conditions could negatively impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Company’s sales and gross margins depend significantly on market demand for its customers’ products.  The uncertainty in the U.S. and international economic and political environments could result in a decline in demand for our customers’ products in any industry.  Further, any adverse changes in tax rates and laws or trade

11

policies affecting our customers could result in decreasing gross margins.  Any of these factors could negatively impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Company experiences variable operating results.

The Company’s results of operations have varied and may continue to fluctuate significantly from period to period, including on a quarterly basis.  Consequently, results of operations in any period should not be considered indicative of the results for any future period, and fluctuations in operating results may also result in fluctuations in the price of the Company’s common stock.

The Company’s quarterly and annual results may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control.  Some of these factors include:

-          changes in sales mix to customers

-          changes in availability and rising component costs

-          volume of customer orders relative to capacity

-          market demand and acceptance of our customers’ products

-          price erosion within the EMS marketplace

-          capital equipment requirements needed to remain technologically competitive

-          volatility in the U.S. and international economic and financial markets

The Company’s customer base is concentrated.

Sales to the Company’s five largest customers accounted for 49.7% and 50.2% of net sales for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019, and April 30, 2018, respectively.  For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, two customers accounted for 15.9% and 15.8% of net sales of the Company, and 3.9% and 11.5%, respectively, of accounts receivable.  For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018, two customers accounted for 20.2% and 13.3% of net sales of the Company and 6.0% and 2.9%, respectively, of accounts receivable.  Significant reductions in sales to any of the Company’s major customers or the loss of a major customer could have a material impact on the Company’s operations.  If the Company cannot replace cancelled or reduced orders, sales will decline, which could have a material impact on the results of operations.  There can be no assurance that the Company will retain any or all of its largest customers.  This risk may be further complicated by pricing pressures and intense competition prevalent in our industry.

If any of the Company’s customers have financial difficulties, the Company could encounter delays or defaults in the payment of amounts owed for accounts receivable and inventory obligations.  This could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

Most of the Company’s customers do not commit to long-term production schedules, which makes it difficult to schedule production and achieve maximum efficiency at the Company’s manufacturing facilities and manage inventory levels.

The volume and timing of sales to the Company’s customers may vary due to:

-          customers’ attempts to manage their inventory

-          variation in demand for the Company’s customers’ products

-          design changes, or

-          acquisitions of or consolidation among customers

Many of the Company’s customers do not commit to firm production schedules.  The Company’s inability to forecast the level of customer orders with certainty can make it difficult to schedule production and maximize utilization of manufacturing capacity and manage inventory levels.  The Company could be required to increase or decrease staffing and more closely manage other expenses in order to meet the anticipated demand of its customers.  Orders from the Company’s customers could be cancelled or delivery schedules could be deferred as a result of changes in our customers’ demand, thereby adversely affecting the Company’s results of operations in any given period.

12

The Company and its customers may be unable to keep current with the industry’s technological changes.

The market for the Company’s manufacturing services is characterized by rapidly changing technology and continuing product development.  The future success of the Company’s business will depend in large part upon our customers’ ability to maintain and enhance their technological capabilities, develop and market manufacturing services which meet changing customer needs and successfully anticipate or respond to technological changes in manufacturing processes on a cost-effective and timely basis.

Our customers have competitive challenges, including rapid technological changes, pricing pressure and decreasing demand from their customers, which could adversely affect their business and the Company’s.

Factors affecting the industries that utilize our customers’ products could negatively impact our customers and the Company.  These factors include:

-          increased competition among our customers and their competitors

-          the inability of our customers to develop and market their products

-          recessionary periods in our customers’ markets

-          the potential that our customers’ products become obsolete

-          our customers’ inability to react to rapidly changing technology

Any such factor or a combination of factors could negatively impact our customers’ need for or ability to pay for our products, which could, in turn, affect the Company’s results of operations.

Adverse market conditions could reduce our future sales and earnings per share.

Uncertainty over the erosion of global consumer confidence amidst concerns about volatile energy costs, geopolitical issues, the availability and cost of credit, declining asset values, inflation, rising unemployment, and the stability and solvency of financial institutions, financial markets, businesses, and sovereign nations has slowed global economic growth and resulted in recessions in many countries, including in the United States, Europe and certain countries in Asia over the past several years.  The economic recovery of recent years is fragile and recessionary conditions may return.  Any of these potential negative economic conditions may reduce demand for the Company’s customers’ products and adversely affect the Company’s sales.  Consequently, the Company’s past operating results, earnings and cash flows may not be indicative of the Company’s future operating results, earnings and cash flows.

Customer relationships with start-up companies present more risk.

A small portion of the Company’s current customer base is comprised of start-up companies.  Customer relationships with start-up companies may present heightened risk due to the lack of product history.  Slow market acceptance of their products could result in demand fluctuations causing inventory levels to rise.  Further, the current economic environment could make it difficult for such emerging companies to obtain additional funding.  This may result in additional credit risk including, but not limited to, the collection of trade account receivables and payment for their inventory.  If the Company does not have adequate allowances recorded, the results of operations may be negatively affected.

The Company faces intense industry competition and downward pricing pressures.

The EMS industry is highly fragmented and characterized by intense competition.  Many of the Company’s competitors have greater experience, as well as greater manufacturing, purchasing, marketing and financial resources than the Company.  Competition from existing or potential new competitors may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.  The introduction of lower priced competitive products, significant price reductions by the Company’s competitors or significant pricing pressures from its customers could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

13

The Company has foreign operations that may pose additional risks.

The Company has substantial manufacturing operations in multiple countries.  Therefore, the Company’s foreign businesses and results of operations are dependent upon numerous related factors, including the stability of the foreign economies, the political climate, relations with the United States, prevailing worker wages, the legal authority of the Company to operate and expand its business in a foreign country, and the ability to identify, hire, train and retain qualified personnel and operating management in Mexico, China and Vietnam.

The Company obtains many of its materials and components through its IPO in Taipei, Taiwan.  The Company’s access to these materials and components is dependent on the continued viability of its Asian suppliers.

Approximately 13.0% and 14.0% of the total non-current consolidated assets of the Company are located in foreign jurisdictions outside the United States as of April 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Disclosure and internal controls may not detect all errors or fraud.

The Company’s disclosure controls and internal controls can provide only reasonable assurance that the procedures will meet the control objectives.  Controls are limited in their effectiveness by human error, including faulty judgments in decision-making.  Further, controls can be circumvented by collusion of two or more people or by management override of controls.  Therefore, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, cannot conclude with certainty that the Company’s disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud.

Inadequate internal control over financial reporting could result in a reduction in the value of our common stock.

If the Company identifies and reports a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting, shareholders and the Company’s lenders could lose confidence in the reliability of the Company’s financial statements.  This could have a material adverse impact on the value of the Company’s stock and the Company’s liquidity.

There is a risk of fluctuation of various currencies integral to the Company’s operations.

The Company purchases some of its material components and funds some of its operations in foreign currencies.  From time to time the currencies fluctuate against the U.S. Dollar.  Such fluctuations could have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and performance.  The impact of currency fluctuations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, resulted in net foreign currency transaction losses of $433,742 compared to net foreign currency gain of approximately $125,000 in the prior year.  These fluctuations are expected to continue and could have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations.  The Company did not, and is not expected to, utilize derivatives or hedge foreign currencies to reduce the risk of such fluctuations.

The availability of raw components or an increase in their price may affect the Company’s operations and profits.

The Company relies on numerous third-party suppliers for components used in the Company’s production process.  Certain of these components are available only from single-sources or a limited number of suppliers.  In addition, a customer’s specifications may require the Company to obtain components from a single-source or a small number of suppliers.  The loss of any such suppliers could have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.  Further, the Company could operate at a cost disadvantage compared to competitors who have greater buying power from suppliers.  The Company does not enter into long-term purchase agreements with major or single-source suppliers, but the Company frequently places cancellable scheduled purchase orders with suppliers that extend out as far as one year.  The current component market place remains volatile.  During the last two quarters of fiscal year 2019, lead times were generally shortened but lead times for certain select

14

components can still exceed 24 to 36 weeks.  The Company’s orders for components are always based on the changing needs of its customers.

The Company depends on management and skilled personnel.

The Company depends significantly on its President/CEO and other executive officers.  The Company’s employees generally are not bound by employment agreements and the Company cannot assure that it will retain its executive officers or skilled personnel.  The loss of the services of any of these key employees could have a material impact on the Company’s business and results of operations.  In addition, despite significant competition, continued growth and expansion of the Company’s EMS business will require that the Company attract, motivate and retain additional skilled and experienced personnel.  The Company’s future growth depends on the contributions and abilities of key executives and skilled, experienced employees. The Company’s future growth also depends on its ability to recruit and retain high-quality employees. A failure to obtain or retain the number of skilled employees necessary to support the Company’s efforts, a loss of key employees or a significant shortage of skilled, experienced employees could jeopardize its ability to meet its growth targets.

Favorable labor relations are important to the Company.

The Company currently has labor union contracts with its employees constituting approximately 48% of its workforce for fiscal years 2019 and 2018.  Although the Company believes its labor relations are good, any labor disruptions, whether union-related or otherwise, could significantly impair the Company’s business, substantially increase the Company’s costs or otherwise have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.

Failure to comply with environmental regulations could subject the Company to liability.

The Company is subject to a variety of environmental regulations relating to the use, storage, discharge and disposal of hazardous chemicals used during its manufacturing process.  To date, the cost to the Company of such compliance has not had a material impact on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.  However, there can be no assurance that violations will not occur in the future as a result of human error, equipment failure or other causes.  Further, the Company cannot predict the nature, scope or effect of environmental legislation or regulatory requirements that could be imposed or how existing or future laws or regulations will be administered or interpreted.  Compliance with more stringent laws or regulations, as well as more vigorous enforcement policies of regulatory agencies, could require substantial expenditures by the Company and could have a material impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.  Any failure by the Company to comply with present or future regulations could subject it to future liabilities or the suspension of production which could have a material negative impact on the Company’s results of operations.

Conflict minerals regulations may cause the Company to incur additional expenses and could increase the cost of components contained in its products and adversely affect its inventory supply chain.

The Dodd-Frank Act, and the rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) thereunder, require the Company to determine and report annually whether any conflict minerals contained in our products originated from the DRC or an adjoining country. The Dodd-Frank Act and these rules could affect our ability to source components that contain conflict minerals at acceptable prices and could impact the availability of conflict minerals, since there may be only a limited number of suppliers of conflict-free conflict minerals. Our customers may require that our products contain only conflict-free conflict minerals, and our revenues and margins may be negatively impacted if we are unable to meet this requirement at a reasonable price or are unable to pass through any increased costs associated with meeting this requirement. Additionally, the Company may suffer reputational harm with our customers and other stakeholders if our products are not conflict-free.  The Company could incur significant costs in the event we are unable to manufacture products that contain only conflict-free conflict minerals or to the extent that we are required to make changes to products, processes, or sources of supply due to the foregoing requirements or pressures.

15

The price of the Company’s stock is volatile.

The price of the Company’s common stock historically has experienced significant volatility due to fluctuations in the Company’s revenue and earnings, other factors relating to the Company’s operations, the market’s changing expectations for the Company’s growth, overall equity market conditions and other factors unrelated to the Company’s operations.  In addition, the limited float of the Company’s common stock and the limited number of market makers also affect the volatility of the Company’s common stock.  Such fluctuations are expected to continue in the future.

An adverse change in the interest rates for our borrowings could adversely affect our results of operations.

The Company pays interest on outstanding borrowings under its senior secured credit facility and certain other long-term debt obligations at interest rates that fluctuate.  An adverse change in the Company’s interest rates could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations.

Changes in securities laws and regulations may increase costs.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and listing requirements subsequently adopted by Nasdaq in response to Sarbanes-Oxley, have required changes in corporate governance practices, internal control policies and securities disclosure and compliance practices of public companies.  More recently the Dodd-Frank Act requires changes to our corporate governance, compliance practices and securities disclosures.  Compliance following the implementation of these rules has increased our legal, financial and accounting costs.  The Company expects increased costs related to these new regulations to continue, including, but not limited to, legal, financial and accounting costs.  These developments may result in the Company having difficulty in attracting and retaining qualified members of the board or qualified officers.  Further, the costs associated with the compliance with and implementation of procedures under these laws and related rules could have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.

Any litigation, even where a claim is without merit, could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources.

In the past, the Company has been notified of claims relating to various matters including intellectual property rights, contractual matters, labor issues or other matters arising in the ordinary course of business.  In the event of any such claim, the Company may be required to spend a significant amount of money and resources, even where the claim is without merit.  Accordingly, the resolution of such disputes, even those encountered in the ordinary course of business, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, consolidated financial conditions and results of operations.

If the security of the Company’ssystems is breached or otherwise subjected to unauthorized access, the Company’s reputation may be severely harmed and it may be exposed to liability.

The Company’s system stores confidential information which includes its financial information, its customers’ proprietary email distribution lists, product information, supplier information, and other critical data.  Any accidental or willful security breach or other unauthorized access could expose the Company to liability for the loss of such information, adverse regulatory action by federal and state governments, time-consuming and expensive litigation and other possible liabilities as well as negative publicity, which could severely damage the Company’s reputation.  If security measures are breached because of third-party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, or if design flaws in its software are exposed and exploited, and, as a result, a third party obtains unauthorized access to any of the Company’s customer data, its relationships with its customers may be severely damaged, and the Company could incur significant liability.  Because techniques used to obtain unauthorized access or to sabotage systems change frequently and generally are not recognized until they are launched against a target, the Company and its third-party hosting facilities may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventive measures.  In addition, many states have enacted laws requiring companies to notify customers of data security breaches involving their data.  These mandatory disclosures regarding a security breach often lead to widespread negative publicity, which may cause the Company’s customers to lose confidence in the effectiveness of its data security measures.  Any security breach whether

16

actual or perceived, could harm the Company’s reputation, could cause it to lose customers and may negatively impact its ability to acquire new customers.

With the increased use of technologies such as the Internet to conduct business, a company is susceptible to operational, information security and related risks. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events. Cyberattacks include, but are not limited to, gaining unauthorized access to digital systems (e.g., through “hacking” or malicious software coding) for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption (e.g., ransomware attacks). Cyberattacks may also be carried out in a manner that does not require gaining unauthorized access, such as causing denial-of-service attacks on websites (i.e., efforts to make network services unavailable to intended users). Cyber incidents affecting the Company or its service providers have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with the Company’s ability to conduct business in the ordinary course, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, reimbursement or other compensation costs, additional compliance costs and, in extreme cases, have caused companies to cease doing business. Cyber events also can affect counterparties or entities with which the Company does business, governmental and other regulatory authorities, banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions, among others. In addition, substantial costs may be incurred in order to prevent any cyber incidents in the future. While the Company has established risk management systems to prevent such cyber incidents, there are inherent limitations in such systems including the possibility that the Company has not prepared for certain risks that have not been or are not possible to have been identified. Further, the Company may be able to influence, but cannot control, the cyber security plans and systems put in place by its service providers or any other third parties whose operations may affect the Company. The Company could be negatively impacted as a result.

Changes in U.S. trade policy, including the imposition of tariffs and the resulting consequences, may have a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations.

The U.S. government has indicated its intent to adopt a new approach to trade policy and in some cases to renegotiate, or potentially terminate, certain existing bilateral or multi-lateral trade agreements.  It has also initiated tariffs on certain foreign goods, including steel and aluminum and other raw materials utilized by the Company.  Changes in U.S. trade policy could result in one or more of the U.S.’ trading partners adopting responsive trade policy making it more difficult or costly for the Company to import our products from those countries.  This in turn could require us to increase prices to our customers which may reduce demand, or, if we are unable to increase prices, result in a lower margin on products sold.

China and the European Union have imposed tariffs on U.S. products in retaliation for new U.S. tariffs.  Additional tariffs could be imposed by China and the European Union in response to proposed increased tariffs on products imported from China and the European Union.  There is also a concern that the imposition of additional tariffs by the United States could result in the adoption of additional tariffs by other countries.  The resulting trade war could have a significant adverse effect on world trade and the world economy.  To the extent that trade tariffs and other restrictions imposed by the United States increase the price of, or limit the amount of steel, aluminum and other raw materials utilized by the Company imported into the United States, the costs of our raw materials may be adversely affected and the demand from our customers for products and services may be diminished, which could adversely affect our revenues and profitability.

We cannot predict future trade policy or the terms of any renegotiated trade agreements and their impact on our business.  The adoption and expansion of trade restrictions, the occurrence of a trade war, or other governmental action related to tariffs or trade agreements or policies has the potential to adversely impact demand for our products, our costs, our customers, our suppliers, and the U.S. economy, which in turn could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

                AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In addition to historical financial information, this discussion of the business of SigmaTron International, Inc. (“SigmaTron”), its wholly-owned subsidiaries Standard Components de Mexico S.A., AbleMex, S.A. de C.V., Digital Appliance Controls de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., Spitfire Controls (Vietnam) Co. Ltd., Spitfire Controls (Cayman) Co. Ltd., wholly-owned foreign enterprises Wujiang SigmaTron Electronics Co., Ltd. and SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. (collectively, “SigmaTron China”) and international procurement office SigmaTron Taiwan branch (collectively, the “Company”) and other Items in this Annual Report on Form 10-K contain forward-looking statements concerning the Company’s business or results of operations.  Words such as “continue,” “anticipate,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “plan,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.  These forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of the Company.  Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, the Company’s plans, actions and actual results could differ materially.  Such statements should be evaluated in the context of the risks and uncertainties inherent in the Company’s business including, but not necessarily limited to, the Company’s continued dependence on certain significant customers; the continued market acceptance of products and services offered by the Company and its customers; pricing pressures from the Company’s customers, suppliers and the market; the activities of competitors, some of which may have greater financial or other resources than the Company; the variability of our operating results; the impairment of long-lived assets; the variability of our customers’ requirements; the availability and cost of necessary components and materials; the ability of the Company and our customers to keep current with technological changes within our industries; regulatory compliance, including conflict minerals; the continued availability and sufficiency of our credit arrangements; changes in U.S., Mexican, Chinese, Vietnamese or Taiwanese regulations affecting the Company’s business; the turmoil in the global economy and financial markets; the stability of the U.S., Mexican, Chinese, Vietnamese and Taiwanese economic, labor and political systems and conditions; the impacts of tariffs; currency exchange fluctuations; and the ability of the Company to manage its growth.  These and other factors which may affect the Company’s future business and results of operations are identified throughout the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and as risk factors, may be detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  These statements speak as of the date of such filings, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update such statements in light of future events or otherwise unless required by law.

Overview

The Company operates in one business segment as an independent provider of EMS, which includes printed circuit board assemblies and completely assembled (box-build) electronic products.  In connection with the production of assembled products, the Company also provides services to its customers, including (1) automatic and manual assembly and testing of products; (2) material sourcing and procurement; (3) manufacturing and test engineering support; (4) design services; (5) warehousing and distribution services; and (6) assistance in obtaining product approval from governmental and other regulatory bodies.  The Company provides these manufacturing services through an international network of facilities located in the United States, Mexico, China, Vietnam and Taiwan.

The Company relies on numerous third-party suppliers for components used in the Company’s production process.  Certain of these components are available only from single-sources or a limited number of suppliers.  In addition, a customer’s specifications may require the Company to obtain components from a single-source or a small number of suppliers.  In the past twelve months the component marketplace has experienced shortages of various components, which in some cases has delayed delivery of product to customers.  The loss of any such suppliers could have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.  Further, the Company could operate at a cost disadvantage compared to competitors who have greater direct buying power from suppliers.  The Company does not enter into long-term purchase agreements with major or single-source suppliers.  The Company believes that short-term purchase orders with its suppliers provides flexibility, given that the Company’s orders are based on the changing needs of its customers.

Sales can be a misleading indicator of the Company’s financial performance.  Sales levels can vary considerably among customers and products depending on the type of services (turnkey versus consignment) rendered by the Company and the demand by customers.  Consignment orders require the Company to perform manufacturing services on components and other materials supplied by a customer, and the Company charges only for its labor, overhead and manufacturing costs, plus a profit.  In the case of turnkey orders, the Company provides, in addition to manufacturing services, the components and other materials used in assembly.  Turnkey contracts, in general, have a higher dollar volume of sales for each given assembly, owing to inclusion of the cost of components and other materials in net sales and cost of goods sold.  Variations in the number of turnkey orders compared to consignment orders can lead to significant fluctuations in the Company’s revenue and gross margin levels.  Consignment orders accounted for less than 1% of the Company’s revenues for each of the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018.

The Company’s international footprint provides our customers with flexibility within the Company to manufacture in China, Mexico, Vietnam or the U.S.  We believe this strategy will continue to serve the Company well as its customers continuously evaluate their supply chain strategies.

As the Company enters fiscal 2020, uncertainty remains pervasive in the market.  The trade war with China weighs heavily on the Company’s operations.  Customers are continuing to re-evaluate their supply chains and the uncertainty regarding trade policy remains a difficult variable to manage.  The Company has seen the electronic component marketplace calm down modestly.  The primary change is a shortening of lead-time for some components, which assists in lowering inventory and reacting more efficiently to the volatility of customer demand requirements.

The Company believes it is heading into fiscal year 2020 with a solid plan and some appealing new opportunities ahead of it.  Current customers are launching new programs and several new customers are starting to ramp production.  However, the labor markets remain tight.  The Company’s focus will remain on reducing inventory levels and increasing cash flows as the trade volatility remains.  The Company is optimistic regarding the fiscal year ahead of it and if the trade wars are resolved, it would appear that there is some additional upside available for fiscal year 2020. 

Critical Accounting Policies:

Management Estimates and Uncertainties - The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Significant estimates made in preparing the consolidated financial statements include depreciation and amortization periods, the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves for inventory, lower of cost or market adjustment for inventory, contingent consideration, deferred taxes, uncertain tax positions, valuation allowance for deferred taxes and valuation of goodwill and long-lived assets.  Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.  The Company’s primary performance obligation to its customers is the production of finished goods electronic assembly products pursuant to purchase orders.  The Company has

21

concluded that control of the products it sells and transfers to its customers and an enforceable right to receive payment is customarily established at the point in time when the finished goods are shipped to its customers, or in some cases delivered pursuant to the specified shipping terms of each customer arrangement.  With respect to consignment arrangements, control transfers and revenue is recognized at the point in time when the goods are shipped to the customer from the consignment location or when delivered to the customer (pursuant to agreed upon shipping terms).  In those limited instances where finished goods delivered to the customer location are stored in a segregated area which are not controlled by the customer (title transfer, etc.) until they are pulled from the segregated area and consumed by the Company’s customer,revenue is recognized upon consumption.  For tooling services, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied at the point in time when the customer takes possession of dies or molds.  For engineering, design, and testing services, the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over time as the respective services are rendered as its customers simultaneously derive value from the Company’s performance.  From the time that a customer purchase order is received and contract is established, the Company’s performance obligations are typically fulfilled within a few weeks.  The Company does not have any performance obligations that require more than one year to fulfill.

Each customer purchase order sets forth the transaction price for the products and services purchased under that arrangement.  The Company evaluates the credit worthiness of its customers and exercises judgment to recognize revenue based upon the amount the Company expects to be paid for each sales transaction it enters into with its customers.  Some customer arrangements include variable consideration, such as volume rebates, some of which depend upon the Company’s customers meeting specified performance criteria, such as a purchasing level over a period of time.  The Company exercises judgment to estimate the most likely amount of variable consideration at each reporting date.

Inventories - Inventories are valued at cost.  Cost is determined by an average cost method and the Company allocates labor and overhead to work-in-process and finished goods.  In the event of an inventory write-down, the Company records expense to state the inventory at lower of cost or net realizable value.  The Company establishes inventory reserves for valuation, shrinkage, and excess and obsolete inventory.  The Company records provisions for inventory shrinkage based on historical experience to account for unmeasured usage or loss.  The Company records provisions for excess and obsolete inventories for the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated realizable value based on assumptions about future product demand and market conditions.  For convenience, the Company records these inventory reserves against the inventory cost through a contra asset rather than through a new cost basis.  Upon a subsequent sale or disposal of the impaired inventory, the corresponding reserve is relieved to ensure the cost basis of the inventory reflects any reductions.  Actual results differing from these estimates could significantly affect the Company’s inventories and cost of products sold as the inventory is sold or otherwise relieved.

Intangible Assets - Intangible assets are comprised of finite life intangible assets including patents, trade names, backlog, non-compete agreements, and customer relationships.  Finite life intangible assets are amortized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 years for patents, 20 years for trade names, 1 year for backlog and 7 years for non-compete agreements except for customer relationships which are amortized on an accelerated basis over their estimated useful life of 15 years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company reviews long-lived assets, including amortizable intangible assets, for impairment.  Property, machinery and equipment and finite life intangible assets are reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment.  If events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment, the Company first performs an impairment review based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis at the lowest level at which cash flows of the long-lived assets are largely independent of other groups of its assets and liabilities.  This analysis requires management judgment with respect to changes in technology, the continued success of product lines, and future volume, revenue and expense growth rates.  If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment, if any, for the difference between the estimated fair value of the asset group and its carrying value.  The Company further conducts annual reviews for idle and underutilized equipment, and reviews business plans for possible impairment.  In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Company determined that the carrying value of the trade name intangible asset was not recoverable and recorded a fourth quarter charge of $690,107 for the entire carrying amount.  The Company’s analysis for fiscal year 2019 did not indicate that any of its other long-lived assets were impaired.

22

Income Tax - The Company’s income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities and reserves for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated future taxes to be paid.  The Company is subject to income taxes in both the U.S. and several foreign jurisdictions.  Significant judgments and estimates by management are required in determining the consolidated income tax expense assessment.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.  In evaluating the Company’s ability to recover its deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations.  In projecting future taxable income, the Company begins with historical results and changes in accounting policies, and incorporates assumptions including the amount of future state, federal and foreign pre-tax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies.  These assumptions require significant judgment and estimates by management about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistentwith the plans and estimates the Company uses to manage the underlying businesses.  In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, the Company considers three years of cumulative operating income and/or loss.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount more likely than not to be realized.  The Company’s valuation allowance was $1,294,605 and $78,100 as of April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively.

The calculation of the Company’s tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in a multitude of jurisdictions across its global operations.  Changes in tax laws and rates could also affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future.  Except as noted below, management is not aware of any such changes that would have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may only be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits.

The Company adjusts its tax liabilities when its judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available.  Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from its current estimate of the tax liabilities.  These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense in the period in which they are determined.

Reclassifications - Certain reclassifications have been made to the previously reported 2018 financial statements to conform to the 2019 presentation.  There was no change to net income.

Results of Operations:

FISCAL YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2019 COMPARED

TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2018

The following table sets forth the percentage relationships of expense items to net sales for the years indicated:

	Fiscal Years
	2019	2018
Net sales	100.0%	100.0%
Operating expenses:
Cost of products sold	90.9	90.4
Selling and administrative expenses	8.0	8.3
Impairment of goodwill and intangible asset	-	1.4
Loss on settlement of receivable and disposal of related assets	-	0.9
Total operating expenses	98.9	101.0
Operating income (loss)	1.1%	(1.0%)

Net sales increased 4.5% to $290,553,951 in fiscal year 2019 from $278,131,709 in the prior year.  The Company’s sales increased in fiscal year 2019 in industrial electronics and medical/life science marketplaces as compared to the prior year.  The increase in sales dollars for these marketplaces was partially offset by a decrease in sales dollars in the consumer electronics marketplace.  Revenues started an upward trend during the fourth fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2019. 

The Company’s sales in a particular industry are driven by the fluctuating forecasts and end-market demand of the customers within that industry.  Sales to customers are subject to variations from period to period depending on customer order cancellations, the life cycle of customer products and product transition.  Sales to the Company’s five largest customers accounted for 49.7% and 50.2% of net sales for fiscal years 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Gross profit decreased to $26,341,769, or 9.1% of net sales, in fiscal year 2019 compared to $26,602,918 or 9.6% of net sales, in the prior fiscal year.  The decrease in gross profit dollars for fiscal year 2019 was primarily the result of margin pressures from both customers and vendors and product mix.  Margin pressures continue from both customers and vendors.  However, price increases were implemented in fiscal year 2019 for some customers.

Selling and administrative expenses increased in fiscal year 2019 to $23,263,117, or8.0% of net sales compared to $23,089,939, or 8.3% of net sales, in fiscal year 2018.  The increase in selling and administrative dollars was attributable to sales salaries, bad debt expense, general insurance, accounting professional fees and financing fees.  The increase in the foregoing selling and administrative expenses were partially offset by a decrease in legal professional fees, bonus expense and other general administrative expenses.  Selling and administrative expenses decreased as a percent of net sales due to an increase in net sales in fiscal year 2019 compared to the prior year. 

During fiscal year 2018, the Company recorded a goodwill and intangible asset impairment in the amount of $3,913,006 and the write off of the account receivable and note receivable related to a customer in the amount of $2,509,423.  See Note E - Related Parties and Note G - Intangible Asset.

Other income increased in fiscal year 2019 to $200,946 compared to other income of $144,574 in the prior fiscal year.  The increase in other income is due to the Company recording in fiscal year 2019 an earn-out based

24

on sales by Wagz in the amount of $91,920 to other income.  However, the $91,920 was reserved as bad debt at April 30, 2019.

Interest expense, net, increased to $2,413,297 in fiscal year 2019 compared to $1,537,446 in fiscal year 2018.  Interest expense increased primarily due to the increased borrowings under the Company’s banking arrangements and mortgage obligations. 

In fiscal year 2019, the Company had an income tax expense of $1,731,415 compared to an income tax benefit of $1,060,452 in fiscal year 2018.  The effective rate for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018 was 199.86% and 24.6%, respectively. The increase in income tax expense as well as the accompanying change in the effective tax rate is the result of the valuation allowance established on certain deferred tax assets related to foreign net operating loss carryforwards that more likely than not will not be realized based on projected income in those jurisdictions and the impact of foreign currency remeasurement.

The Company reported a net loss of $865,114 in fiscal year 2019 compared to a net loss of $3,241,870 for fiscal year 2018.  Basic and diluted loss per share for fiscal year 2019 were $0.20 each, compared to basic and diluted loss per share of $0.77 each for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

Operating Activities.

Cash flow used in operating activities was $1,619,500 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, compared to cash flow used in operating activities of $4,968,479 for the prior fiscal year.  Cash flow used in operating activities was primarily the result of an increase in accounts receivable in the amount of $5,134,297, a decrease in accounts payable of $3,699,388 and the reported net loss.  The increase in accounts receivable is the result of increased sales and the timing of payments.Cash flow used in operating activities was partially offset by a decrease in inventory.

Cash flow used in operating activities was $4,968,479 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.  Cash flow used in operating activities was primarily the result of an increase in inventory in the amount of $13,415,555.  The increase in inventory is the result of an increase in customer orders and in some cases orders being pushed out.  Further, capacity issues in the component industry made it difficult to obtain some components to complete assemblies for shipping.  Cash flow used in operating activities was partially offset by the result of an increase in accounts payable, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets. 

Investing Activities.

In fiscal year 2019, the Company purchased in cash $2,361,629 in machinery and equipment to be used in the ordinary course of business.  The Company has received forecasts from current customers for increased business that would require additional investment in capital equipment and facilities.  To the extent that these forecasts come to fruition, the Company anticipates that it will make additional machinery and equipment purchases up to $6,000,000 in fiscal year 2020.  The Company anticipates purchases will be funded by lease transactions.  However, there is no assurance that such increased business will be obtained or that the Company will be able to obtain funding or leases at acceptable terms, if at all, in the future.

In fiscal year 2018, the Company purchased in cash $3,731,370 in machinery and equipment to be used in the ordinary course of business.  The Company purchases were funded by the bank line of credit and lease transactions.

Financing Activities.

Cash provided by financing activities was $3,265,340 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, compared to cash provided by financing activities of $6,676,729 in fiscal year 2018.  Cash provided by financing activities was primarily the result of net borrowings under the line of credit.

25

Cash provided by financing activities was $6,676,729 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.  Cash provided by financing activities was primarily the result of net borrowings under the line of credit and proceeds under building notes.  Proceeds under building notes was due to the mortgage agreements on December 21, 2017 with U.S. Bank to refinance the Company’s corporate headquarters and its manufacturing facility in Elk Grove Village, Illinois and the Company’s engineering and design center in Elgin, Illinois.

Notes Payable - Banks

On March 31, 2017, the Company entered into a $35,000,000 senior secured credit facility with U.S. Bank, which expires on March 31, 2022.  The credit facility is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s domestically located assets. The facility allows the Company to choose among interest rates at which it may borrow funds:  the bank fixed rate of five percent or LIBOR plus one and one half percent (effectively 4.09% at April 30, 2019).  Interest is due monthly.  Under the senior secured credit facility, the Company may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $35,000,000 or (ii) an amount equal to a percentage of the eligible accounts receivable plus a percentage of the eligible inventory (the “Borrowing Base”). 

On July 16, 2018, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into an amendment of the revolving line of credit under the senior secured credit facility.  The amended revolving credit facility allows the Company to borrow up to the lesser of (i) $45,000,000 (the“Revolving Line Cap”) less reserves or (ii) the Borrowing Base, but no more than 90% of the Company’s Revolving Line Cap, except that the 90% limitation will expire if the Company’s actual revolving loans for 90 consecutive days after the amendment’s effective date are less than 80% of the Company’s Borrowing Base and the Company maintains a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.2 to 1.0 for four consecutive quarters.  The amendment also imposes sublimits on categories of inventory equal to $10,500,000 on raw materials, $10,000,000 on finished goods and $28,000,000 on all eligible inventory. 

On December 13, 2018, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into an amendment of the revolving credit facility.  The amendment provides an exception to otherwise ineligible foreign receivables for up to $3,000,000 of receivables paid by certain enumerated account debtors outside of the U.S. and Canada.

Notes Payable - Equipment

The Company routinely enters into secured note agreements with Engencap Fin S.A. DE C.V. to finance the purchase of equipment. The terms of these secured note agreements mature from November 2021 through May 2023, with quarterly installment payments ranging from $11,045 to $37,941 and a fixed interest rate ranging from 6.65% to 8.00%.

Capital Lease and Sale Leaseback Obligations

From October 2013 through January 2019, the Company entered into various capital lease and sale leaseback agreements with a gross cost of $13,034,503. The terms of the lease agreements mature through January 2023 with monthly installment payments ranging from $1,455 to $40,173 and a fixed interest rate ranging from 3.75% to 8.00%. The net book value of the equipment under these leases was $8,884,475 and $9,344,724 at April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively.

Operating Leases

In September 2010, the Company entered into a real estate lease agreement in Union City, California, to rent approximately 117,000 square feet of manufacturing and office space.  Under the terms of the lease agreement, the Company receives incentives over the life of the lease, which extends through March 2021.  The amount of the deferred rent income recorded for fiscal year ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018 was $128,505 and $103,599, respectively.  In addition, the landlord provided the Company tenant incentives of $418,000, which

27

are being amortized over the life of the lease.  The balance of deferred rent at April 30, 2019, was $318,568 compared to $447,073 at April 30, 2018. 

On May 31, 2012, the Company entered into a lease agreement in Tijuana, Mexico, to rent approximately 112,000 square feet of manufacturing and office space.  Under the terms of the lease agreement, the Company receives incentives over the life of the lease, which expired in November 2018.  The amount of the deferred rent income for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018 was $85,527 and $139,437, respectively.  The balance of deferred rent at April 30, 2019, was $0 compared to $85,527 at April 30, 2018. 

Other

The Company provides funds for salaries, wages, overhead and capital expenditure items as necessary to operate its wholly-owned Mexican, Vietnamese and Chinese subsidiaries and the Taiwan IPO.  The Company provides funding in U.S. Dollars, which are exchanged for Pesos, Dong, Renminbi, and New Taiwan dollars.  The fluctuation of currencies from time to time, without an equal or greater increase in inflation, could have a material impact on the financial results of the Company.  The impact of currency fluctuations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, resulted in net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $433,742 compared to net foreign currency gains of $125,000 in the prior year.  In fiscal year 2019, the Company paid approximately $53,090,000 to its foreign subsidiaries.

The Company anticipates that its credit facilities, cash flow from operations and leasing resources are adequate to meet its working capital requirements and capital expenditures for fiscal year 2020. In addition, in the event the Company desires to expand its operations, its business grows more rapidly than expected, the current economic climate deteriorates, customers delay payments, or the Company desires to consummate an acquisition, additional financing resources may be necessary in the current or future fiscal years.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain equity or debt financing on acceptable terms, or at all, in the future.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to retain or renew its credit agreements in the future, or that any retention or renewal will be on the same terms as currently exist.

The impact of inflation on the Company’s net sales, revenues and income from operations for the past two fiscal years has been minimal.

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f).  The Company’s internal controls over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.  On May 14, 2013, COSO issued an updated version of its Internal Control - Integrated Framework (the “2013 Framework”) which officially superseded the 1992 Framework on December 15, 2014.  Originally issued in 1992, the framework helps organizations design, implement and evaluate the effectiveness of internal control concepts and simplify their use and application.  Neither COSO, the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other regulatory body has mandated adoption of the 2013 Framework by a specified date. The Company implemented the 2013 Framework in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2018.  Based on the Company’s evaluation, management concluded that its internal controls over financial reporting were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of April 30, 2019.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect its internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Stockholders and Board of Directors

SigmaTron International, Inc.

Elk Grove Village, Illinois

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sigmatron International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of April 30, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at April 30, 2019 and 2018, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

/s/ BDO USA, LLP

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2006.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

April 30, 2019 and 2018

NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

SigmaTron International, Inc., its subsidiaries, foreign enterprises and international procurement office (collectively, the “Company”) operates in one business segment as an independent provider of electronic manufacturing services (“EMS”), which includes printed circuit board assemblies and completely assembled (box-build) electronic products.  In connection with the production of assembled products, the Company also provides services to its customers, including (1) automatic and manual assembly and testing of products; (2) material sourcing and procurement; (3) manufacturing and test engineering support; (4) design services; (5) warehousing and distribution services; and (6) assistance in obtaining product approval from governmental and other regulatory bodies.  As of April 30, 2019, the Company provided these manufacturing services through an international network of facilities located in the United States, Mexico, China, Vietnam and Taiwan.  Approximately 13.0% and 14.0% of the total non-current consolidated assets of the Company are located in foreign jurisdictions outside the United States as of April 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Consolidation Policy

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of SigmaTron International, Inc. (“SigmaTron”), its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Standard Components de Mexico, S.A., AbleMex S.A. de C.V., Digital Appliance Controls de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., Spitfire Controls (Vietnam) Co. Ltd., Spitfire Controls (Cayman) Co. Ltd. and SigmaTron International Trading Co., wholly-owned foreign enterprises Suzhou SigmaTron Electronics Co. Ltd., and SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. (collectively, “SigmaTron China”), and its international procurement office, SigmaTron Taiwan.  The functional currency of the Mexican, Vietnamese and Chinese subsidiaries and procurement branch is the U.S. Dollar.  Intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.  The impact of currency fluctuations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, resulted in net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $433,742 compared to net foreign currency gains of $125,000 in the prior year. 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Significant estimates made in preparing the consolidated financial statements include depreciation and amortization periods, the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves for inventory, lower of cost or net realizable value for inventory, contingent consideration, deferred taxes, uncertain tax positions, valuation allowance for deferred taxes and valuation of long-lived assets.  Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities within three months of the purchase date.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

Accounts Receivable

The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable are due from companies in the industrial electronics, consumer electronics and medical/life sciences industries.  Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer’s financial condition, and, generally, collateral is not required.  Accounts receivable are due in accordance with agreed upon terms, and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.  Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payments terms are considered past due.  The Company writes off accounts receivable when they are determined to be uncollectible.

The Company has arrangements with various financial institutions to sell certain eligible accounts receivable balances from specific customers without recourse. The accounts receivable balances sold are at the election of the Company.  The Company incurred fees for such sales, which are reflected as selling and administrative expenses on the Company’s income statement and were not material for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019 or April 30, 2018.  The accounts receivable balances are derecognized at the time of sale, as the Company does not have continuing involvement after the point of sale.  During the years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, the Company sold without recourse trade receivables of approximately $77,000,000 and $78,000,000, respectively. Cash proceeds from these agreements are reflected as operating activities included in the change in accounts receivable in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts relates to receivables not expected to be collected from its customers.  This allowance is based on management’s assessment of specific customer balances, considering the age of receivables and financial stability of the customer and a five year average of prior uncollectible amounts.  If there is an adverse change in the financial condition of the Company’s customers, or if actual defaults are higher than provided for, an addition to the allowance may be necessary.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at cost.  Cost is determined by an average cost method and the Company allocates labor and overhead to work-in-process and finished goods.  In the event of an inventory write-down, the Company records expense to state the inventory at lower of cost or net realizable value.  The Company establishes inventory reserves for shrinkage and excess and obsolete inventory.  The Company records provisions for inventory shrinkage based on historical experience to account for unmeasured usage or loss.  The Company records provisions for excess and obsolete inventories for the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated realizable value based on assumptions about future product demand and market conditions.  For convenience, the Company records these inventory reserves against the inventory cost through a contra asset rather than through a new cost basis.  Upon a subsequent sale or disposal of the impaired inventory, the corresponding reserve is relieved to ensure the cost basis of the inventory reflects any reductions.  Actual results differing from these estimates could significantly affect the Company’s inventories and cost of products sold as the inventory is sold or otherwise relieved.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

Property, Machinery and Equipment

Property, machinery and equipment are valued at cost.  The Company provides for depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets:

Buildings	20 years
Machinery and equipment	5-12 years
Office equipment and software	3-5 years
Tools and dies	12 months
Leasehold improvements	lesser of lease term or useful life

Expenses for repairs and maintenance are charged to selling and administrative expenses as incurred.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs consist of costs incurred to obtain the Company’s long-term debt and are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the related debt.  Deferred financing fees of $303,310 and $319,332 net of accumulated amortization of $166,689 and $75,585, respectively, as of April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively, are deducted from long term debt on the Company’s balance sheet.

Income Taxes

The Company’s income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities and reserves for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated future taxes to be paid.  The Company is subject to income taxes in both the U.S. and several foreign jurisdictions.  Significant judgments and estimates by management are required in determining the consolidated income tax expense assessment.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.  In evaluating the Company’s ability to recover its deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations.  In projecting future taxable income, the Company begins with historical results and changes in accounting policies, and incorporates assumptions including the amount of future state, federal and foreign pre-tax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies.  These assumptions require significant judgment and estimates by management about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates the Company uses to manage the underlying businesses.  In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, the Company considers three years of cumulative operating income and/or loss.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount more likely than not to be realized.

A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may only be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits.

The calculation of the Company’s tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in a multitude of jurisdictions across its global operations.  Changes in tax laws and rates could also affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future.  Except as noted below, management is not aware of any such changes that would have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

Income Taxes - Continued

The Company adjusts its tax liabilities when its judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available.  Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from its current estimate of the tax liabilities.  These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense in the period in which they are determined.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period.  The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common stock equivalents such as stock options and restricted stock, had been exercised or vested.  There were 53,309 and 109,402 anti-dilutive common stock equivalents at April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively, which have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.  The Company’s primary performance obligation to its customers is the production of finished goods electronic assembly products pursuant to purchase orders.  The Company has concluded that control of the products it sells and transfers to its customers and an enforceable right to receive payment is customarily established at the point in time when the finished goods are shipped to its customers, or in some cases delivered pursuant to the specified shipping terms of each customer arrangement.  With respect to consignment arrangements, control transfers and revenue is recognized at the point in time when the goods are shipped to the customer from the consignment location or when delivered to the customer (pursuant to agreed upon shipping terms).  In those limited instances where finished goods delivered to the customer location are stored in a segregated area which are not controlled by the customer (title transfer, etc.) until they are pulled from the segregated area and consumed by the Company’s customer,revenue is recognized upon consumption.  For tooling services, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied at the point in time when the customer takes possession of dies or molds.  For engineering, design, and testing services, the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over time as the respective services are rendered as its customers

simultaneously derive value from the Company’s performance.  From the time that a customer purchase order is received and contract is established, the Company’s performance obligations are typically fulfilled within a few weeks.  The Company does not have any performance obligations that require more than one year to fulfill.

Each customer purchase order sets forth the transaction price for the products and services purchased under that arrangement.  The Company evaluates the credit worthiness of its customers and exercises judgment to recognize revenue based upon the amount the Company expects to be paid for each sales transaction it enters into with its customers.  Some customer arrangements include variable consideration, such as volume rebates, some of which depend upon the Company’s customers meeting specified performance criteria, such as a purchasing level over a period of time.  The Company exercises judgment to estimate the most likely amount of variable consideration at each reporting date.

The Company’s typical payment terms are 30 days and its sales arrangements do not contain any significant financing component for its customers.  The Company’s customer arrangements do not generate contract assets or liabilities that are material to the consolidated financial statements.  The Company generally provides a warranty for workmanship, unless the assembly was designed by the Company, in which case it warrants assembly/design.  The Company assembles and tests assemblies based on customers’ specifications prior to shipment.  Historically, the amount of returns for workmanship issues has been de minimis under the Company’s standard or extended warranties.  The Company does not provide its customers the option to purchase additional warranties and, therefore, the Company’s warranties are not considered a separate service or performance obligation.

The Company utilizes the practical expedient to treat shipping and handling activities after the customer obtains control as fulfillment activities.  The Company records shipping and handling costs as selling and administrative expenses and costs are accrued when revenue is recognized. 

The Company pays sales commissions to its sales representatives which may be considered as incremental costs to obtain a contract. However, since the recoverability period is less than one year, the Company utilizes the practical expedient provided by the new revenue recognition accounting standard that allows an entity to expense the costs of obtaining a contract as incurred.

During the twelve months of fiscal year 2019, no revenues were recognized from performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in previous periods and no amounts were allocated to performance obligations that remain unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied at April 30, 2019.  The Company is electing not to disclose the value of the remaining unsatisfied performance obligation with a duration of one year or less as permitted by the practical expedient in ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.”  The Company had no material remaining unsatisfied performance obligations as of April 30, 2019, with an expected duration of greater than one year.

The following table presents the Company’s revenue disaggregated by the principal end-user markets it serves:

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company records shipping and handling costs for goods shipped to customers as selling and administrative expenses.  Customers are typically invoiced for shipping costs and such amounts are included in net sales.  Shipping and handling costs were not material to the financial statements for fiscal years 2019 or 2018.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are determined based upon the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants exclusive of any transaction costs.  The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, note receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses which approximate fair value at April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, due to their short-term nature.  The carrying amounts of the Company’s debt obligations approximate fair value based on future payments discounted at current interest rates for similar obligations or interest rates which fluctuate with the market.

The Company measured the contingent consideration included in the fiscal 2013 Spitfire Control, Inc. acquisition under the fair value standard (primarily using level 3 measurement inputs).  The contingent consideration was measured and reported at fair value at each period end.  The Company currently does not have any other non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Wagz, Inc. (“Wagz”) whereby the Company sold assets to Wagz for $350,000 cash, 600,000 shares of Wagz Class C Common Stock and an earn-out based on sales by Wagz generated from use of the assets through July 31, 2022.  The earn-out is $6.00 per unit of a product specified in the asset purchase agreement and any upgrade to such product.  The fair value of the non-cash consideration at April 30, 2019, is $600,000 for the 600,000 shares of Wagz common stock.

Goodwill represents the purchase price in excess of the fair value of assets acquired in business combinations.  Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” requires the Company to assess goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually in the absence of an indicator of possible impairment and immediately upon an indicator of possible impairment.  The Company is permitted the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit is less than its corresponding carrying value.  If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, the Company concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit is less than its corresponding carrying value, then the Company is not required to take further action.  However, if the Company concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test, including computing the fair value of the reporting unit and comparing that value to its carrying value (the “step 2” requirement).  If the fair value is less than its carrying value, a second step of the test is required to determine if recorded goodwill is impaired.  The Company also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for goodwill in any period and proceed directly to performing thequantitative impairment test.  The Company will be able to resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. 

For fiscal year 2018, the Company early adopted the guidance contained in Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” which removes the step 2 requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment.  Beginning with the Company’s February 1, 2018 goodwill impairment testing, goodwill impairment is the amount by which the Company’s single reporting unit carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the recorded amount of goodwill.  To estimate the fair value of the Company’s equity, the Company used both a market approach based on the guideline companies’ method, and an income approach based on a discounted cash flow analysis.  The value indicated by both methods was weighted to arrive at a concluded value.  The Company’s fiscal year 2018 assessment concluded that the carrying value of the Company’s equity was greater than the fair value of the Company by an amount greater than the recorded amount of the goodwill and the Company recognized a full goodwill impairment charge of $3,222,899.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are comprised of finite life intangible assets including patents, trade names, backlog, non-compete agreements, and customer relationships.  Finite life intangible assets are amortized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 years for patents, 20 years for trade names, 1 year for backlog and 7 years for non-compete agreements except for customer relationships which are amortized on an accelerated basis over their estimated useful life of 15 years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including amortizable intangible assets, for impairment in accordance with FASB AC 360: Property, Plant and Equipment.  Property, machinery and equipment and finite life intangible assets are reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment.  If events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment, the Company first performs an impairment review based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis at the lowest level at which cash flows of the long-lived assets are largely independent of other groups of its assets and liabilities.  This analysis requires management judgment with respect to changes in technology, the continued success of product lines, and future volume, revenue and expense growth rates.  If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment, if any, for the difference between the estimated fair value of the asset group and its carrying value.  The Company further conducts annual reviews for idle and underutilized equipment, and reviews business plans for possible impairment.  In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Company determined that the carrying value of the trade name intangible asset was not recoverable and recorded a fourth quarter charge of $690,107 for the entire carrying amount.  The Company’s analysis for fiscal year 2019 did not indicate that any of its other long-lived assets were impaired.

Settlement of Receivable, Related Sale of Assets and Investments

As more fully described in Note E – Related Parties, the Company has recorded an investment in Wagz, a privately held company whose equity does not have a readily determinable fair value.  As permitted by ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities, paragraph 321-35-2, the Company has elected to carry its investment in Wagz equity at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or a similar investment of the same issuer until the investment no longer qualifies to be measured under paragraph 321-35-2.  The balance at fiscal year ended April 30, 2018 was $600,000 which is recorded under other assets.  At April 30, 2019, the Company continued to recognize the fair value of the Wagz common stock at $600,000; it reduced the fair market of the Wagz inventory by $109,046 and it reserved as bad debt the Wagz total account receivable of $331,283.

Stock Incentive Plans

Under the Company’s stock option plans, options to acquire shares of common stock have been made available for grant to certain employees and directors.  Each option granted has an exercise price of not less than 100% of the market value of the common stock on the date of grant.  The contractual life of each option is generally 10 years.  The vesting of the grants varies according to the individual options granted.  The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the grant date fair value and records that cost over the respective vesting period of the award.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the previously reported 2018 financial statements to conform to the 2019 presentation.  There was no change to net income.

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements

During the quarter ended April 30, 2019, the Company identified mechanical errors in its calculation of borrowings and payments under its revolving line of credit presented in the consolidated statement of cash flows. The Company assessed the materiality of these errors considering both qualitative and quantitative factors and determined that for the year ended April 30, 2018, the three month periods ended July 31, 2018 and July 31, 2017,  the six month periods ended October 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017, and the nine month periods ended January 31, 2019 and January 31, 2018, the errors were immaterial. The Company decided to correct these immaterial errors as revisions to previously issued financial statements and will revise the Forms 10-Q when filed in succeeding periods of the next fiscal year.

New Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers(Topic 606)” which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition.”The guidance requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to a customer, and replaces most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP.  The Company adopted the ASU on May 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method.  Under the modified retrospective transition method, the cumulative effect of applying ASC 606 to all contracts that are not completed as of the date of adoption is recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (if applicable) while the comparative periods are not restated and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods.  The Company has determined that the amount of revenue from contracts with customers under the new revenue recognition standard is the same as under prior accounting standards.  Accordingly, the Company did not record an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings as a result of adopting ASC 606.

New Accounting Standards - Continued

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). This update requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase of the leased asset by the lessee. This classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, using a modified retrospective approach, with early adoption permitted.

ASC 842 will be effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. There are a number of optional practical expedients made available to simplify the transition of the new standard. The Company has made the following elections:

· to adopt the optional transition method defined within ASU 2018-11 and not restate comparative prior periods but instead recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption;

· to elect the package of three practical expedients addressing whether a contract contains a lease, lease classification and initial direct costs;

· to combine lease and non-lease components as a single component for all asset classes;

· to use a portfolio approach to determine the incremental borrowing rate; and 

· to apply the short-term lease exception to leases that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. 

During fiscal year 2019, the Company made progress on implementing the new standard which included surveying the Company’s businesses, assessing the Company’s portfolio of leases and compiling a central repository of active leases. The Company evaluated key policy elections and considerations under the standard which the Company will utilize to develop an internal policy to address the new standard requirements. The Company continues to assess the impact on its accounting policies, internal control processes and related disclosures required under the new guidance, as well as its process to determine the actual amount of the required transition adjustment to reflect the balance of the right of use asset and lease liability. These conclusions may change as the Company continues to evaluate the new standard or if there are any changes in the Company’s lease portfolio. The Company does not currently believe that the standard will have a material impact on its results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 introduces a new forward-looking approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The estimate of expected credit losses will require entities to incorporate considerations of historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts.  This ASU also expands the disclosure requirements to enable users of financial statements to understand the entity’s assumptions, models and methods for estimating expected credit losses. For public business entities, ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and the guidance is to be applied using the modified-retrospective approach. Earlier adoption is permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance and has not determined the impact this ASU may have on its consolidated financial statements.

On May 1, 2018, the Company adopted the guidance contained in ASU 2016 -15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.”  The amendments in ASU 2016-15 are applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented.  The Company has evaluated each of the eight specific issues addressed by ASU 2016-15.   During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018, the Company received cash

settlement of insurance claims related to equipment damaged by a fire and including replacement of inventory and clean-up costs at one of its subsidiaries.  The Company has classified these receipts as cash flows from operating activities for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.  As a result of the adoption of this guidance in fiscal year 2019, the Company reclassified $251,395 of cash receipts related to this insurance settlement from cash flows from operations to cash flows from investing activities in its statements of cash flows for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, “Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” The guidance permits entities to reclassify tax effects stranded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income as a result of tax reform to retained earnings. This new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted in annual and interim periods and can be applied retrospectively or in the period of adoption. The Company adopted this ASU in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending April 30, 2019 and it had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE E - RELATED PARTIES

In March, 2015, two of the Company’s executive officers invested in a start-up customer, Petzila, Inc. (“Petzila”).  The executive officers’ investments constituted less than 2% (individually and in aggregate) of the outstanding beneficial ownership of Petzila, according to information provided by Petzila to the executive officers.  

On April 30, 2018, the Company foreclosed on its security interest and held a public sale of the assets in accordance with the requirements of Article 9 of the California Uniform Commercial Code.  The Company acquired all of the assets of Petzila as the winning bidder at the public sale by a credit bid of $3,500,000, the aggregate amount of Petzila’s liability to the company.Concurrent with the foreclosure sale, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Wagz, Inc. (Wagz) whereby the Company sold the assets to Wagz for $350,000 cash, 600,000 shares of Wagz common stock and an earn-out based on sales by Wagz generated from use of the assets through July 31, 2022.  The earn-out is $6.00 per unit of a product specified in the asset purchase agreement and any upgrade to such product.

The fair value of the non-cash consideration consisted of $600,000 for the 600,000 shares of Wagz common stock which is recorded within other assets.  The Company determined the fair value of the equity using the price per common share received by Wagz in a recent financing transaction, a level 3 input.  The Company did not assign any value to the earn-out because any receipts from the earn-out are highly uncertain and contingent upon Wagz selling the product specified in the asset purchase agreement between the Company and Wagz. Accordingly, the Company recognized the fair value of the assets received from Wagz and derecognized the receivables from Petzila.  The fair value of the assets received from Wagz was approximately $950,000; therefore, the Company recognized a loss of approximately $2,509,423 in its consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.

Amortization expense was $374,725 and $435,043 for the years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively.

In conjunction with the May 2012 acquisition of Spitfire Control, Inc., an estimate of the fair value of the contingent consideration, $2,320,000, was recorded based on expected operating results through fiscal year 2019 and the specific terms of when such consideration would be earned.  Those terms provided for additional consideration to be paid based on a percentage of sales and pre-tax profits over those years in excess of certain minimums.  Payments were made quarterly each year and adjusted after each year-end audit.  The Company adjusted the estimated remaining payments expected to be paid under the agreement, which resulted in an increase of $40,324 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019.  Any change in the Company’s estimate is reflected as a change in the contingent consideration liability and as additional charges or credits to selling and administrative expenses.  This was measured and reported as a level 3 fair value at each period end.  The Company made payments totaling $196,247 and $226,014 for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively.  As of April 30, 2019, the contingent consideration liability was $57,537 compared to $213,460 at April 30, 2018.

The facility allows the Company to choose among interest rates at which it may borrow funds:  the bank fixed rate of five percent or LIBOR plus one and one half percent (effectively 4.09% at April 30, 2019).  Interest is due monthly.  Under the senior secured credit facility, the Company may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $35,000,000 or (ii) an amount equal to a percentage of the eligible accounts receivable plus a percentage of the eligible inventory (the “Borrowing Base”). 

On July 16, 2018, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into an amendment of the revolving line of credit under the senior secured credit facility.  The amended revolving credit facility allows the Company to borrow up to the lesser of (i) $45,000,000 (the“Revolving Line Cap”) less reserves or (ii) the Borrowing Base, but no more than 90% of the Company’s Revolving Line Cap, except that the 90% limitation will expire if the Company’s actual revolving loans for 90 consecutive days after the amendment’s effective date are less than 80% of the Company’s Borrowing Base and the Company maintains a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.2 to 1.0 for four consecutive quarters.  The amendment also imposes sublimits on categories of inventory equal to $10,500,000 on raw materials, $10,000,000 on finished goods and $28,000,000 on all eligible inventory. 

On December 13, 2018, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into an amendment of the revolving credit facility.  The amendment provides an exception to otherwise ineligible foreign receivables for up to $3,000,000 of receivables paid by certain enumerated account debtors outside of the U.S. and Canada.

On March 22, 2019, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into an amendment of the revolving credit facility.  The amendment allows the Company to borrow up to the lesser of (i) theRevolving Line Cap less reserves or (ii) the Borrowing Base, but no more than 95% of the Company’s Revolving Line Cap until August 1, 2019 and 90% on and after August 1, 2019.  As of April 30, 2019, there was $35,727,212 outstanding and $6,645,730 of unused availability under the U.S. Bank facility compared to an outstanding balance of $29,279,631 and $5,720,369 of unused availability at April 30, 2018.  At April 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenant and other restrictive

Due to the Tax Act, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Act enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740.  In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Tax Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete.  To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete but it is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate in the financial statements.  If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Tax Act.

Due to the timing of the enactment and the complexity involved in applying the provisions of the Tax Act, the Company made reasonable estimates for certain effects of the Tax Act and recorded provisional amounts in its financial statements as of April 30, 2018.  The Company completed its accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act in fiscal year 2019 with no material changes to the provisional estimates recorded in prior periods.

As of April 30, 2019, the Company does not have a net operating loss carryforward for federal income tax purposes.  The Company has state net operating loss carry-forwards totaling approximately $51,000 at April 30, 2019, that will begin to expire in fiscal year April 30, 2025.   The Company has foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $5,149,000 as of April 30, 2019, which will begin to expire in 2023.  The Company recognizes a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. With the exception of its foreign tax credits and foreign net operating losses described below, the Company determined it is more likely than not that it will realize its deferred tax assets due to the reversal of deferred tax liabilities and forecast of future earnings. The Company has established a valuation allowance of $78,100 related to its foreign tax credit carry-forward. The Company’s estimate of cumulative taxable income during the foreign tax credit carryforward period is insufficient to support that the tax benefit from the foreign tax credit is more likely than not to be realized. The Company has also established a valuation allowance of $1,216,505 on its net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets at one of its Chinese subsidiaries and its Vietnam subsidiaries. Based on historical losses and forecasted future earnings the Company has determined that the tax benefit from such assets are not more likely than not to be realized.

As a result of the Tax Act, the historic undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries will be taxed in the U.S. via the one-time repatriation tax in fiscal year 2018. As a result of this transition tax, the Company may repatriate its cash and cash equivalents held by its foreign subsidiaries without such funds being subject to further U.S. income tax liability. Certain unrepatriated foreign earnings remain subject to local country withholding taxes upon repatriation.  The Company continues to apply its permanent reinvestment assertion on the cumulative amount of unremitted earnings of $9,141,000 as of April 30, 2019, from its foreign subsidiaries.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

The Company has not identified any uncertain tax positions or expects any to be taken in the Company’s tax returns.  For the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, the amount of consolidated worldwide liability for uncertain tax positions that impacted the Company’s effective tax rate was $0 for each year.

Other

Interest and penalties related to tax positions taken in the Company’s tax returns are recorded in income tax expense and miscellaneous selling, general and administrative expense, respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations.  For the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, the amount included in the Company’s balance sheet for such liabilities was $0 for each year.

NOTE K - 401(k) RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

The Company sponsors 401(k) retirement savings plans, which are available to all non-union U.S. employees.  The Company may elect to match participant contributions up to $300 per participant annually.  The Company contributed $96,086 and $90,744 to the plans during the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively.  The Company incurred total expenses of $11,750 and $12,700 for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively, relating to costs associated with the administration of the plans.

NOTE L - MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of uncollateralized accounts receivable.  For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, two customers accounted for 15.9% and 15.8% of net sales of the Company, and 3.9% and 11.5%, respectively, of accounts receivable at April 30, 2019.  For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018, two customers accounted for 20.2% and 13.3% of net sales of the Company and 6.0% and 2.9%, respectively, of accounts receivable at April 30, 2018.  Further, the Company has $661,115 in cash in China as of April 30, 2019.  Effective May 1, 2015, China implemented a deposit insurance program to insure up to approximately $81,000 in deposits under certain circumstances.  Funds above this amount are not insured by a guaranteed deposit insurance system.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Consolidation Policy

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of SigmaTron International, Inc. (“SigmaTron”), its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Standard Components de Mexico, S.A., AbleMex S.A. de C.V., Digital Appliance Controls de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., Spitfire Controls (Vietnam) Co. Ltd., Spitfire Controls (Cayman) Co. Ltd. and SigmaTron International Trading Co., wholly-owned foreign enterprises Suzhou SigmaTron Electronics Co. Ltd., and SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. (collectively, “SigmaTron China”), and its international procurement office, SigmaTron Taiwan.  The functional currency of the Mexican, Vietnamese and Chinese subsidiaries and procurement branch is the U.S. Dollar.  Intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.  The impact of currency fluctuations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, resulted in net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $433,742 compared to net foreign currency gains of $125,000 in the prior year. 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Significant estimates made in preparing the consolidated financial statements include depreciation and amortization periods, the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves for inventory, lower of cost or net realizable value for inventory, contingent consideration, deferred taxes, uncertain tax positions, valuation allowance for deferred taxes and valuation of long-lived assets.  Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities within three months of the purchase date.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

Accounts Receivable

The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable are due from companies in the industrial electronics, consumer electronics and medical/life sciences industries.  Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer’s financial condition, and, generally, collateral is not required.  Accounts receivable are due in accordance with agreed upon terms, and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.  Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payments terms are considered past due.  The Company writes off accounts receivable when they are determined to be uncollectible.

The Company has arrangements with various financial institutions to sell certain eligible accounts receivable balances from specific customers without recourse. The accounts receivable balances sold are at the election of the Company.  The Company incurred fees for such sales, which are reflected as selling and administrative expenses on the Company’s income statement and were not material for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019 or April 30, 2018.  The accounts receivable balances are derecognized at the time of sale, as the Company does not have continuing involvement after the point of sale.  During the years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, the Company sold without recourse trade receivables of approximately $77,000,000 and $78,000,000, respectively. Cash proceeds from these agreements are reflected as operating activities included in the change in accounts receivable in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts relates to receivables not expected to be collected from its customers.  This allowance is based on management’s assessment of specific customer balances, considering the age of receivables and financial stability of the customer and a five year average of prior uncollectible amounts.  If there is an adverse change in the financial condition of the Company’s customers, or if actual defaults are higher than provided for, an addition to the allowance may be necessary.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at cost.  Cost is determined by an average cost method and the Company allocates labor and overhead to work-in-process and finished goods.  In the event of an inventory write-down, the Company records expense to state the inventory at lower of cost or net realizable value.  The Company establishes inventory reserves for shrinkage and excess and obsolete inventory.  The Company records provisions for inventory shrinkage based on historical experience to account for unmeasured usage or loss.  The Company records provisions for excess and obsolete inventories for the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated realizable value based on assumptions about future product demand and market conditions.  For convenience, the Company records these inventory reserves against the inventory cost through a contra asset rather than through a new cost basis.  Upon a subsequent sale or disposal of the impaired inventory, the corresponding reserve is relieved to ensure the cost basis of the inventory reflects any reductions.  Actual results differing from these estimates could significantly affect the Company’s inventories and cost of products sold as the inventory is sold or otherwise relieved.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

Property, Machinery and Equipment

Property, machinery and equipment are valued at cost.  The Company provides for depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets:

Buildings	20 years
Machinery and equipment	5-12 years
Office equipment and software	3-5 years
Tools and dies	12 months
Leasehold improvements	lesser of lease term or useful life

Expenses for repairs and maintenance are charged to selling and administrative expenses as incurred.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs consist of costs incurred to obtain the Company’s long-term debt and are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the related debt.  Deferred financing fees of $303,310and $319,332 net of accumulated amortization of $166,689 and $75,585, respectively, as of April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively, are deducted from long term debt on the Company’s balance sheet.

Income Taxes

The Company’s income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities and reserves for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated future taxes to be paid.  The Company is subject to income taxes in both the U.S. and several foreign jurisdictions.  Significant judgments and estimates by management are required in determining the consolidated income tax expense assessment.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.  In evaluating the Company’s ability to recover its deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations.  In projecting future taxable income, the Company begins with historical results and changes in accounting policies, and incorporates assumptions including the amount of future state, federal and foreign pre-tax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies.  These assumptions require significant judgment and estimates by management about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates the Company uses to manage the underlying businesses.  In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, the Company considers three years of cumulative operating income and/or loss.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount more likely than not to be realized.

A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may only be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits.

The calculation of the Company’s tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in a multitude of jurisdictions across its global operations.  Changes in tax laws and rates could also affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future.  Except as noted below, management is not aware of any such changes that would have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

Income Taxes - Continued

The Company adjusts its tax liabilities when its judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available.  Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from its current estimate of the tax liabilities.  These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense in the period in which they are determined.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period.  The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common stock equivalents such as stock options and restricted stock, had been exercised or vested.  There were 53,309 and 109,402 anti-dilutive common stock equivalents at April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively, which have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.  The Company’s primary performance obligation to its customers is the production of finished goods electronic assembly products pursuant to purchase orders.  The Company has concluded that control of the products it sells and transfers to its customers and an enforceable right to receive payment is customarily established at the point in time when the finished goods are shipped to its customers, or in some cases delivered pursuant to the specified shipping terms of each customer arrangement.  With respect to consignment arrangements, control transfers and revenue is recognized at the point in time when the goods are shipped to the customer from the consignment location or when delivered to the customer (pursuant to agreed upon shipping terms).  In those limited instances where finished goods delivered to the customer location are stored in a segregated area which are not controlled by the customer (title transfer, etc.) until they are pulled from the segregated area and consumed by the Company’s customer,revenue is recognized upon consumption.  For tooling services, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied at the point in time when the customer takes possession of dies or molds.  For engineering, design, and testing services, the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over time as the respective services are rendered as its customers

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

Revenue Recognition - Continued

simultaneously derive value from the Company’s performance.  From the time that a customer purchase order is received and contract is established, the Company’s performance obligations are typically fulfilled within a few weeks.  The Company does not have any performance obligations that require more than one year to fulfill.

Each customer purchase order sets forth the transaction price for the products and services purchased under that arrangement.  The Company evaluates the credit worthiness of its customers and exercises judgment to recognize revenue based upon the amount the Company expects to be paid for each sales transaction it enters into with its customers.  Some customer arrangements include variable consideration, such as volume rebates, some of which depend upon the Company’s customers meeting specified performance criteria, such as a purchasing level over a period of time.  The Company exercises judgment to estimate the most likely amount of variable consideration at each reporting date.

The Company’s typical payment terms are 30 days and its sales arrangements do not contain any significant financing component for its customers.  The Company’s customer arrangements do not generate contract assets or liabilities that are material to the consolidated financial statements.  The Company generally provides a warranty for workmanship, unless the assembly was designed by the Company, in which case it warrants assembly/design.  The Company assembles and tests assemblies based on customers’ specifications prior to shipment.  Historically, the amount of returns for workmanship issues has been de minimis under the Company’s standard or extended warranties.  The Company does not provide its customers the option to purchase additional warranties and, therefore, the Company’s warranties are not considered a separate service or performance obligation.

The Company utilizes the practical expedient to treat shipping and handling activities after the customer obtains control as fulfillment activities.  The Company records shipping and handling costs as selling and administrative expenses and costs are accrued when revenue is recognized. 

The Company pays sales commissions to its sales representatives which may be considered as incremental costs to obtain a contract. However, since the recoverability period is less than one year, the Company utilizes the practical expedient provided by the new revenue recognition accounting standard that allows an entity to expense the costs of obtaining a contract as incurred.

During the twelve months of fiscal year 2019, no revenues were recognized from performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in previous periods and no amounts were allocated to performance obligations that remain unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied at April 30, 2019.  The Company is electing not to disclose the value of the remaining unsatisfied performance obligation with a duration of one year or less as permitted by the practical expedient in ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.”  The Company had no material remaining unsatisfied performance obligations as of April 30, 2019, with an expected duration of greater than one year.

The following table presents the Company’s revenue disaggregated by the principal end-user markets it serves:

		Year Ended April 30,		Year Ended April 30,
Net trade sales by end-market		2019		2018
Industrial Electronics	$	160,435,562	$	152,166,932

Total Net Trade Sales	$	290,553,951	$	278,131,709

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company records shipping and handling costs for goods shipped to customers as selling and administrative expenses.  Customers are typically invoiced for shipping costs and such amounts are included in net sales.  Shipping and handling costs were not material to the financial statements for fiscal years 2019 or 2018.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are determined based upon the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants exclusive of any transaction costs.  The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, note receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses which approximate fair value at April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, due to their short-term nature.  The carrying amounts of the Company’s debt obligations approximate fair value based on future payments discounted at current interest rates for similar obligations or interest rates which fluctuate with the market.

The Company measured the contingent consideration included in the fiscal 2013 Spitfire Control, Inc. acquisition under the fair value standard (primarily using level 3 measurement inputs).  The contingent consideration was measured and reported at fair value at each period end.  The Company currently does not have any other non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Wagz, Inc. (“Wagz”) whereby the Company sold assets to Wagz for $350,000 cash, 600,000 shares of Wagz Class C Common Stock and an earn-out based on sales by Wagz generated from use of the assets through July 31, 2022.  The earn-out is $6.00 per unit of a product specified in the asset purchase agreement and any upgrade to such product.  The fair value of the non-cash consideration at April 30, 2019, is $600,000 for the 600,000 shares of Wagz common stock.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the purchase price in excess of the fair value of assets acquired in business combinations.  Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” requires the Company to assess goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually in the absence of an indicator of possible impairment and immediately upon an indicator of possible impairment.  The Company is permitted the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit is less than its corresponding carrying value.  If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, the Company concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit is less than its corresponding carrying value, then the Company is not required to take further action.  However, if the Company concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test, including computing the fair value of the reporting unit and comparing that value to its carrying value (the “step 2” requirement).  If the fair value is less than its carrying value, a second step of the test is required to determine if recorded goodwill is impaired.  The Company also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for goodwill in any period and proceed directly to performing thequantitative impairment test.  The Company will be able to resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. 

For fiscal year 2018, the Company early adopted the guidance contained in Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” which removes the step 2 requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment.  Beginning with the Company’s February 1, 2018 goodwill impairment testing, goodwill impairment is the amount by which the Company’s single reporting unit carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the recorded amount of goodwill.  To estimate the fair value of the Company’s equity, the Company used both a market approach based on the guideline companies’ method, and an income approach based on a discounted cash flow analysis.  The value indicated by both methods was weighted to arrive at a concluded value.  The Company’s fiscal year 2018 assessment concluded that the carrying value of the Company’s equity was greater than the fair value of the Company by an amount greater than the recorded amount of the goodwill and the Company recognized a full goodwill impairment charge of $3,222,899.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are comprised of finite life intangible assets including patents, trade names, backlog, non-compete agreements, and customer relationships.  Finite life intangible assets are amortized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 years for patents, 20 years for trade names, 1 year for backlog and 7 years for non-compete agreements except for customer relationships which are amortized on an accelerated basis over their estimated useful life of 15 years.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including amortizable intangible assets, for impairment in accordance with FASB AC 360: Property, Plant and Equipment.  Property, machinery and equipment and finite life intangible assets are reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment.  If events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment, the Company first performs an impairment review based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis at the lowest level at which cash flows of the long-lived assets are largely independent of other groups of its assets and liabilities.  This analysis requires management judgment with respect to changes in technology, the continued success of product lines, and future volume, revenue and expense growth rates.  If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment, if any, for the difference between the estimated fair value of the asset group and its carrying value.  The Company further conducts annual reviews for idle and underutilized equipment, and reviews business plans for possible impairment.  In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Company determined that the carrying value of the trade name intangible asset was not recoverable and recorded a fourth quarter charge of $690,107 for the entire carrying amount.  The Company’s analysis for fiscal year 2019 did not indicate that any of its other long-lived assets were impaired.

Settlement of Receivable, Related Sale of Assets and Investments

As more fully described in Note E – Related Parties, the Company has recorded an investment in Wagz, a privately held company whose equity does not have a readily determinable fair value.  As permitted by ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities, paragraph 321-35-2, the Company has elected to carry its investment in Wagz equity at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or a similar investment of the same issuer until the investment no longer qualifies to be measured under paragraph 321-35-2.  The balance at fiscal year ended April 30, 2018 was $600,000 which is recorded under other assets.  At April 30, 2019, the Company continued to recognize the fair value of the Wagz common stock at $600,000; it reduced the fair market of the Wagz inventory by $109,046 and it reserved as bad debt the Wagz total account receivable of $331,283.

Stock Incentive Plans

Under the Company’s stock option plans, options to acquire shares of common stock have been made available for grant to certain employees and directors.  Each option granted has an exercise price of not less than 100% of the market value of the common stock on the date of grant.  The contractual life of each option is generally 10 years.  The vesting of the grants varies according to the individual options granted.  The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the grant date fair value and records that cost over the respective vesting period of the award.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the previously reported 2018 financial statements to conform to the 2019 presentation.  There was no change to net income.

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements

During the quarter ended April 30, 2019, the Company identified mechanical errors in its calculation of borrowings and payments under its revolving line of credit presented in the consolidated statement of cash flows. The Company assessed the materiality of these errors considering both qualitative and quantitative factors and determined that for the year ended April 30, 2018, the three month periods ended July 31, 2018 and July 31, 2017,  the six month periods ended October 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017, and the nine month periods ended January 31, 2019 and January 31, 2018, the errors were immaterial. The Company decided to correct these immaterial errors as revisions to previously issued financial statements and will revise the Forms 10-Q when filed in succeeding periods of the next fiscal year. 

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

The errors had no impact to total cash flows from financing activities, net loss or net loss per share, or the consolidated balance sheets or statements of operations or stockholders’ equity.

New Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers(Topic 606)” which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition.”The guidance requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to a customer, and replaces most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP.  The Company adopted the ASU on May 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method.  Under the modified retrospective transition method, the cumulative effect of applying ASC 606 to all contracts that are not completed as of the date of adoption is recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (if applicable) while the comparative periods are not restated and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods.  The Company has determined that the amount of revenue from contracts with customers under the new revenue recognition standard is the same as under prior accounting standards.  Accordingly, the Company did not record an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings as a result of adopting ASC 606. 

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

New Accounting Standards - Continued

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). This update requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase of the leased asset by the lessee. This classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, using a modified retrospective approach, with early adoption permitted.

ASC 842 will be effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. There are a number of optional practical expedients made available to simplify the transition of the new standard. The Company has made the following elections:

· to adopt the optional transition method defined within ASU 2018-11 and not restate comparative prior periods but instead recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption;

· to elect the package of three practical expedients addressing whether a contract contains a lease, lease classification and initial direct costs;

· to combine lease and non-lease components as a single component for all asset classes;

· to use a portfolio approach to determine the incremental borrowing rate; and 

· to apply the short-term lease exception to leases that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. 

During fiscal year 2019, the Company made progress on implementing the new standard which included surveying the Company’s businesses, assessing the Company’s portfolio of leases and compiling a central repository of active leases. The Company evaluated key policy elections and considerations under the standard which the Company will utilize to develop an internal policy to address the new standard requirements. The Company continues to assess the impact on its accounting policies, internal control processes and related disclosures required under the new guidance, as well as its process to determine the actual amount of the required transition adjustment to reflect the balance of the right of use asset and lease liability. These conclusions may change as the Company continues to evaluate the new standard or if there are any changes in the Company’s lease portfolio. The Company does not currently believe that the standard will have a material impact on its results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 introduces a new forward-looking approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The estimate of expected credit losses will require entities to incorporate considerations of historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts.  This ASU also expands the disclosure requirements to enable users of financial statements to understand the entity’s assumptions, models and methods for estimating expected credit losses. For public business entities, ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and the guidance is to be applied using the modified-retrospective approach. Earlier adoption is permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance and has not determined the impact this ASU may have on its consolidated financial statements.

On May 1, 2018, the Company adopted the guidance contained in ASU 2016 -15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.”  The amendments in ASU 2016-15 are applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented.  The Company has evaluated each of the eight specific issues addressed by ASU 2016-15.   During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018, the Company received cash

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

settlement of insurance claims related to equipment damaged by a fire and including replacement of inventory and clean-up costs at one of its subsidiaries.  The Company has classified these receipts as cash flows from operating activities for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.  As a result of the adoption of this guidance in fiscal year 2019, the Company reclassified $251,395 of cash receipts related to this insurance settlement from cash flows from operations to cash flows from investing activities in its statements of cash flows for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, “Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” The guidance permits entities to reclassify tax effects stranded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income as a result of tax reform to retained earnings. This new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted in annual and interim periods and can be applied retrospectively or in the period of adoption. The Company adopted this ASU in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending April 30, 2019 and it had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March, 2015, two of the Company’s executive officers invested in a start-up customer, Petzila, Inc. (“Petzila”).  The executive officers’ investments constituted less than 2% (individually and in aggregate) of the outstanding beneficial ownership of Petzila, according to information provided by Petzila to the executive officers.  

On April 30, 2018, the Company foreclosed on its security interest and held a public sale of the assets in accordance with the requirements of Article 9 of the California Uniform Commercial Code.  The Company acquired all of the assets of Petzila as the winning bidder at the public sale by a credit bid of $3,500,000, the aggregate amount of Petzila’s liability to the company.Concurrent with the foreclosure sale, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Wagz, Inc. (Wagz) whereby the Company sold the assets to Wagz for $350,000 cash, 600,000 shares of Wagz common stock and an earn-out based on sales by Wagz generated from use of the assets through July 31, 2022.  The earn-out is $6.00 per unit of a product specified in the asset purchase agreement and any upgrade to such product.

The fair value of the non-cash consideration consisted of $600,000 for the 600,000 shares of Wagz common stock which is recorded within other assets.  The Company determined the fair value of the equity using the price per common share received by Wagz in a recent financing transaction, a level 3 input.  The Company did not assign any value to the earn-out because any receipts from the earn-out are highly uncertain and contingent upon Wagz selling the product specified in the asset purchase agreement between the Company and Wagz. Accordingly, the Company recognized the fair value of the assets received from Wagz and derecognized the receivables from Petzila.  The fair value of the assets received from Wagz was approximately $950,000; therefore, the Company recognized a loss of approximately $2,509,423 in its consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.

Notes Payable - Banks

On March 31, 2017, the Company entered into a $35,000,000 senior secured credit facility with U.S. Bank, which expires on March 31, 2022.  The credit facility is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s domestically located assets. The facility allows the Company to choose among interest rates at which it may borrow funds:  the bank fixed rate of five percent or LIBOR plus one and one half percent (effectively 4.09% at April 30, 2019).  Interest is due monthly.  Under the senior secured credit facility, the Company may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $35,000,000 or (ii) an amount equal to a percentage of the eligible accounts receivable plus a percentage of the eligible inventory (the “Borrowing Base”). 

On July 16, 2018, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into an amendment of the revolving line of credit under the senior secured credit facility.  The amended revolving credit facility allows the Company to borrow up to the lesser of (i) $45,000,000 (the“Revolving Line Cap”) less reserves or (ii) the Borrowing Base, but no more than 90% of the Company’s Revolving Line Cap, except that the 90% limitation will expire if the Company’s actual revolving loans for 90 consecutive days after the amendment’s effective date are less than 80% of the Company’s Borrowing Base and the Company maintains a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.2 to 1.0 for four consecutive quarters.  The amendment also imposes sublimits on categories of inventory equal to $10,500,000 on raw materials, $10,000,000 on finished goods and $28,000,000 on all eligible inventory. 

On December 13, 2018, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into an amendment of the revolving credit facility.  The amendment provides an exception to otherwise ineligible foreign receivables for up to $3,000,000 of receivables paid by certain enumerated account debtors outside of the U.S. and Canada.

On March 22, 2019, the Company and U.S. Bank entered into an amendment of the revolving credit facility.  The amendment allows the Company to borrow up to the lesser of (i) theRevolving Line Cap less reserves or (ii) the Borrowing Base, but no more than 95% of the Company’s Revolving Line Cap until August 1, 2019 and 90% on and after August 1, 2019.  As of April 30, 2019, there was $35,727,212 outstanding and $6,645,730 of unused availability under the U.S. Bank facility compared to an outstanding balance of $29,279,631 and $5,720,369 of unused availability at April 30, 2018.  At April 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenant and other restrictive

covenants under the credit facility.  Deferred financing costs of $75,083 were capitalized during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, which are amortized over the term of the agreement.  As of April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, the unamortized amount offset against outstanding debt was $209,162 and $192,502, respectively.

On March 15, 2019, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., entered into a credit facility with China Construction Bank.  Under the agreement SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. can borrow up to 5,000,000 Renminbi, approximately $743,000 as of April 30, 2019, and the facility is collateralized by Wujiang SigmaTron Electronics Co., Ltd.’s manufacturing building.  Interest is payable monthly and the facility bears a fixed interest rate of 6.09%.  The term of the facility extends to March 14, 2024.  There was no outstanding balance under the facility at April 30, 2019.

The Company is in compliance with its financial covenant and other restrictive covenants and anticipates that its credit facilities, expected future cash flows from operations and leasing resources are adequate to meet its working capital requirements, and fund capital expenditures for the next 12 months.  In addition, if customers delay orders, future payments are not made timely, the Company desires to expand its operations, its business grows more rapidly than expected, or the current economic climate deteriorates, additional financing resources may be necessary. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain equity or debt financing at acceptable terms, or at all, in the future.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to retain or renew its credit agreements in the future, or that any retention or renewal will be on the same terms as currently exist

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, including, but not limited to: (1) reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%; (2) changing rules related to uses and limitations of net operating loss carryforwards created in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017; (3) bonus depreciation that will allow for full expensing of qualified property; (4) creating a new limitation on deductible interest expense; (5) eliminating the corporate alternative minimum tax; and (6) new tax rules related to foreign operations.

NOTE J - INCOME TAX - Continued

Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities - Continued

Due to the Tax Act, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Act enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740.  In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Tax Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete.  To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete but it is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate in the financial statements.  If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Tax Act.

Due to the timing of the enactment and the complexity involved in applying the provisions of the Tax Act, the Company made reasonable estimates for certain effects of the Tax Act and recorded provisional amounts in its financial statements as of April 30, 2018.  The Company completed its accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act in fiscal year 2019 with no material changes to the provisional estimates recorded in prior periods.

As of April 30, 2019, the Company does not have a net operating loss carryforward for federal income tax purposes.  The Company has state net operating loss carry-forwards totaling approximately $51,000 at April 30, 2019, that will begin to expire in fiscal year April 30, 2025.   The Company has foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $5,149,000 as of April 30, 2019, which will begin to expire in 2023.  The Company recognizes a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. With the exception of its foreign tax credits and foreign net operating losses described below, the Company determined it is more likely than not that it will realize its deferred tax assets due to the reversal of deferred tax liabilities and forecast of future earnings. The Company has established a valuation allowance of $78,100 related to its foreign tax credit carry-forward. The Company’s estimate of cumulative taxable income during the foreign tax credit carryforward period is insufficient to support that the tax benefit from the foreign tax credit is more likely than not to be realized. The Company has also established a valuation allowance of $1,216,505 on its net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets at one of its Chinese subsidiaries and its Vietnam subsidiaries. Based on historical losses and forecasted future earnings the Company has determined that the tax benefit from such assets are not more likely than not to be realized.

As a result of the Tax Act, the historic undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries will be taxed in the U.S. via the one-time repatriation tax in fiscal year 2018. As a result of this transition tax, the Company may repatriate its cash and cash equivalents held by its foreign subsidiaries without such funds being subject to further U.S. income tax liability. Certain unrepatriated foreign earnings remain subject to local country withholding taxes upon repatriation.  The Company continues to apply its permanent reinvestment assertion on the cumulative amount of unremitted earnings of $9,141,000 as of April 30, 2019, from its foreign subsidiaries.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

The Company has not identified any uncertain tax positions or expects any to be taken in the Company’s tax returns.  For the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, the amount of consolidated worldwide liability for uncertain tax positions that impacted the Company’s effective tax rate was $0 for each year.

Other

Interest and penalties related to tax positions taken in the Company’s tax returns are recorded in income tax expense and miscellaneous selling, general and administrative expense, respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations.  For the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, the amount included in the Company’s balance sheet for such liabilities was $0 for each year. 

NOTE J - INCOME TAX - Continued

Other - Continued

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various state and foreign jurisdictions.  With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state, local or foreign examinations by tax authorities for tax years before fiscal year 2015.  The Internal Revenue Service previously concluded an audit of the Company’s fiscal year 2013 tax return, and a no change letter was issued.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (Policy)

12 Months Ended

Apr. 30, 2019

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Consolidation Policy

Consolidation Policy

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of SigmaTron International, Inc. (“SigmaTron”), its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Standard Components de Mexico, S.A., AbleMex S.A. de C.V., Digital Appliance Controls de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., Spitfire Controls (Vietnam) Co. Ltd., Spitfire Controls (Cayman) Co. Ltd. and SigmaTron International Trading Co., wholly-owned foreign enterprises Suzhou SigmaTron Electronics Co. Ltd., and SigmaTron Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. (collectively, “SigmaTron China”), and its international procurement office, SigmaTron Taiwan.  The functional currency of the Mexican, Vietnamese and Chinese subsidiaries and procurement branch is the U.S. Dollar.  Intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.  The impact of currency fluctuations for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019, resulted in net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $433,742 compared to net foreign currency gains of $125,000 in the prior year. 

Use Of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Significant estimates made in preparing the consolidated financial statements include depreciation and amortization periods, the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves for inventory, lower of cost or net realizable value for inventory, contingent consideration, deferred taxes, uncertain tax positions, valuation allowance for deferred taxes and valuation of long-lived assets.  Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities within three months of the purchase date.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable

The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable are due from companies in the industrial electronics, consumer electronics and medical/life sciences industries.  Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer’s financial condition, and, generally, collateral is not required.  Accounts receivable are due in accordance with agreed upon terms, and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.  Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payments terms are considered past due.  The Company writes off accounts receivable when they are determined to be uncollectible.

The Company has arrangements with various financial institutions to sell certain eligible accounts receivable balances from specific customers without recourse. The accounts receivable balances sold are at the election of the Company.  The Company incurred fees for such sales, which are reflected as selling and administrative expenses on the Company’s income statement and were not material for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019 or April 30, 2018.  The accounts receivable balances are derecognized at the time of sale, as the Company does not have continuing involvement after the point of sale.  During the years ended April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, the Company sold without recourse trade receivables of approximately $77,000,000 and $78,000,000, respectively. Cash proceeds from these agreements are reflected as operating activities included in the change in accounts receivable in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows.

Allowance For Doubtful Accounts

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts relates to receivables not expected to be collected from its customers.  This allowance is based on management’s assessment of specific customer balances, considering the age of receivables and financial stability of the customer and a five year average of prior uncollectible amounts.  If there is an adverse change in the financial condition of the Company’s customers, or if actual defaults are higher than provided for, an addition to the allowance may be necessary.

Inventories

Inventories

Inventories are valued at cost.  Cost is determined by an average cost method and the Company allocates labor and overhead to work-in-process and finished goods.  In the event of an inventory write-down, the Company records expense to state the inventory at lower of cost or net realizable value.  The Company establishes inventory reserves for shrinkage and excess and obsolete inventory.  The Company records provisions for inventory shrinkage based on historical experience to account for unmeasured usage or loss.  The Company records provisions for excess and obsolete inventories for the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated realizable value based on assumptions about future product demand and market conditions.  For convenience, the Company records these inventory reserves against the inventory cost through a contra asset rather than through a new cost basis.  Upon a subsequent sale or disposal of the impaired inventory, the corresponding reserve is relieved to ensure the cost basis of the inventory reflects any reductions.  Actual results differing from these estimates could significantly affect the Company’s inventories and cost of products sold as the inventory is sold or otherwise relieved.

Property, Machinery And Equipment

Property, Machinery and Equipment

Property, machinery and equipment are valued at cost.  The Company provides for depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets:

Buildings	20 years
Machinery and equipment	5-12 years
Office equipment and software	3-5 years
Tools and dies	12 months
Leasehold improvements	lesser of lease term or useful life

Expenses for repairs and maintenance are charged to selling and administrative expenses as incurred.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs consist of costs incurred to obtain the Company’s long-term debt and are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the related debt.  Deferred financing fees of $303,310and $319,332 net of accumulated amortization of $166,689 and $75,585, respectively, as of April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively, are deducted from long term debt on the Company’s balance sheet.

Income Tax

Income Taxes

The Company’s income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities and reserves for unrecognized tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated future taxes to be paid.  The Company is subject to income taxes in both the U.S. and several foreign jurisdictions.  Significant judgments and estimates by management are required in determining the consolidated income tax expense assessment.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.  In evaluating the Company’s ability to recover its deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations.  In projecting future taxable income, the Company begins with historical results and changes in accounting policies, and incorporates assumptions including the amount of future state, federal and foreign pre-tax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies.  These assumptions require significant judgment and estimates by management about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates the Company uses to manage the underlying businesses.  In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, the Company considers three years of cumulative operating income and/or loss.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount more likely than not to be realized.

A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may only be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits.

The calculation of the Company’s tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in a multitude of jurisdictions across its global operations.  Changes in tax laws and rates could also affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future.  Except as noted below, management is not aware of any such changes that would have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

The Company adjusts its tax liabilities when its judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available.  Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from its current estimate of the tax liabilities.  These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense in the period in which they are determined.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period.  The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common stock equivalents such as stock options and restricted stock, had been exercised or vested.  There were 53,309 and 109,402 anti-dilutive common stock equivalents at April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively, which have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.  The Company’s primary performance obligation to its customers is the production of finished goods electronic assembly products pursuant to purchase orders.  The Company has concluded that control of the products it sells and transfers to its customers and an enforceable right to receive payment is customarily established at the point in time when the finished goods are shipped to its customers, or in some cases delivered pursuant to the specified shipping terms of each customer arrangement.  With respect to consignment arrangements, control transfers and revenue is recognized at the point in time when the goods are shipped to the customer from the consignment location or when delivered to the customer (pursuant to agreed upon shipping terms).  In those limited instances where finished goods delivered to the customer location are stored in a segregated area which are not controlled by the customer (title transfer, etc.) until they are pulled from the segregated area and consumed by the Company’s customer,revenue is recognized upon consumption.  For tooling services, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied at the point in time when the customer takes possession of dies or molds.  For engineering, design, and testing services, the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over time as the respective services are rendered as its customers

Revenue Recognition - Continued

simultaneously derive value from the Company’s performance.  From the time that a customer purchase order is received and contract is established, the Company’s performance obligations are typically fulfilled within a few weeks.  The Company does not have any performance obligations that require more than one year to fulfill.

Each customer purchase order sets forth the transaction price for the products and services purchased under that arrangement.  The Company evaluates the credit worthiness of its customers and exercises judgment to recognize revenue based upon the amount the Company expects to be paid for each sales transaction it enters into with its customers.  Some customer arrangements include variable consideration, such as volume rebates, some of which depend upon the Company’s customers meeting specified performance criteria, such as a purchasing level over a period of time.  The Company exercises judgment to estimate the most likely amount of variable consideration at each reporting date.

The Company’s typical payment terms are 30 days and its sales arrangements do not contain any significant financing component for its customers.  The Company’s customer arrangements do not generate contract assets or liabilities that are material to the consolidated financial statements.  The Company generally provides a warranty for workmanship, unless the assembly was designed by the Company, in which case it warrants assembly/design.  The Company assembles and tests assemblies based on customers’ specifications prior to shipment.  Historically, the amount of returns for workmanship issues has been de minimis under the Company’s standard or extended warranties.  The Company does not provide its customers the option to purchase additional warranties and, therefore, the Company’s warranties are not considered a separate service or performance obligation.

The Company utilizes the practical expedient to treat shipping and handling activities after the customer obtains control as fulfillment activities.  The Company records shipping and handling costs as selling and administrative expenses and costs are accrued when revenue is recognized. 

The Company pays sales commissions to its sales representatives which may be considered as incremental costs to obtain a contract. However, since the recoverability period is less than one year, the Company utilizes the practical expedient provided by the new revenue recognition accounting standard that allows an entity to expense the costs of obtaining a contract as incurred.

During the twelve months of fiscal year 2019, no revenues were recognized from performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in previous periods and no amounts were allocated to performance obligations that remain unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied at April 30, 2019.  The Company is electing not to disclose the value of the remaining unsatisfied performance obligation with a duration of one year or less as permitted by the practical expedient in ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.”  The Company had no material remaining unsatisfied performance obligations as of April 30, 2019, with an expected duration of greater than one year.

The following table presents the Company’s revenue disaggregated by the principal end-user markets it serves:

Shipping And Handling Costs

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company records shipping and handling costs for goods shipped to customers as selling and administrative expenses.  Customers are typically invoiced for shipping costs and such amounts are included in net sales.  Shipping and handling costs were not material to the financial statements for fiscal years 2019 or 2018.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are determined based upon the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants exclusive of any transaction costs.  The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Fair Value Of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, note receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses which approximate fair value at April 30, 2019 and April 30, 2018, due to their short-term nature.  The carrying amounts of the Company’s debt obligations approximate fair value based on future payments discounted at current interest rates for similar obligations or interest rates which fluctuate with the market.

The Company measured the contingent consideration included in the fiscal 2013 Spitfire Control, Inc. acquisition under the fair value standard (primarily using level 3 measurement inputs).  The contingent consideration was measured and reported at fair value at each period end.  The Company currently does not have any other non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Wagz, Inc. (“Wagz”) whereby the Company sold assets to Wagz for $350,000 cash, 600,000 shares of Wagz Class C Common Stock and an earn-out based on sales by Wagz generated from use of the assets through July 31, 2022.  The earn-out is $6.00 per unit of a product specified in the asset purchase agreement and any upgrade to such product.  The fair value of the non-cash consideration at April 30, 2019, is $600,000 for the 600,000 shares of Wagz common stock.

Goodwill

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the purchase price in excess of the fair value of assets acquired in business combinations.  Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” requires the Company to assess goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually in the absence of an indicator of possible impairment and immediately upon an indicator of possible impairment.  The Company is permitted the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit is less than its corresponding carrying value.  If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, the Company concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit is less than its corresponding carrying value, then the Company is not required to take further action.  However, if the Company concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test, including computing the fair value of the reporting unit and comparing that value to its carrying value (the “step 2” requirement).  If the fair value is less than its carrying value, a second step of the test is required to determine if recorded goodwill is impaired.  The Company also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for goodwill in any period and proceed directly to performing thequantitative impairment test.  The Company will be able to resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. 

For fiscal year 2018, the Company early adopted the guidance contained in Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” which removes the step 2 requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment.  Beginning with the Company’s February 1, 2018 goodwill impairment testing, goodwill impairment is the amount by which the Company’s single reporting unit carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the recorded amount of goodwill.  To estimate the fair value of the Company’s equity, the Company used both a market approach based on the guideline companies’ method, and an income approach based on a discounted cash flow analysis.  The value indicated by both methods was weighted to arrive at a concluded value.  The Company’s fiscal year 2018 assessment concluded that the carrying value of the Company’s equity was greater than the fair value of the Company by an amount greater than the recorded amount of the goodwill and the Company recognized a full goodwill impairment charge of $3,222,899.

Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are comprised of finite life intangible assets including patents, trade names, backlog, non-compete agreements, and customer relationships.  Finite life intangible assets are amortized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 years for patents, 20 years for trade names, 1 year for backlog and 7 years for non-compete agreements except for customer relationships which are amortized on an accelerated basis over their estimated useful life of 15 years.

Impairment Of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including amortizable intangible assets, for impairment in accordance with FASB AC 360: Property, Plant and Equipment.  Property, machinery and equipment and finite life intangible assets are reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment.  If events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate possible impairment, the Company first performs an impairment review based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis at the lowest level at which cash flows of the long-lived assets are largely independent of other groups of its assets and liabilities.  This analysis requires management judgment with respect to changes in technology, the continued success of product lines, and future volume, revenue and expense growth rates.  If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment, if any, for the difference between the estimated fair value of the asset group and its carrying value.  The Company further conducts annual reviews for idle and underutilized equipment, and reviews business plans for possible impairment.  In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Company determined that the carrying value of the trade name intangible asset was not recoverable and recorded a fourth quarter charge of $690,107 for the entire carrying amount.  The Company’s analysis for fiscal year 2019 did not indicate that any of its other long-lived assets were impaired.

Settlement Of Receivable, Related Sale Of Assets And Investments

Settlement of Receivable, Related Sale of Assets and Investments

As more fully described in Note E – Related Parties, the Company has recorded an investment in Wagz, a privately held company whose equity does not have a readily determinable fair value.  As permitted by ASC 321, Investments - Equity Securities, paragraph 321-35-2, the Company has elected to carry its investment in Wagz equity at its cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or a similar investment of the same issuer until the investment no longer qualifies to be measured under paragraph 321-35-2.  The balance at fiscal year ended April 30, 2018 was $600,000 which is recorded under other assets.  At April 30, 2019, the Company continued to recognize the fair value of the Wagz common stock at $600,000; it reduced the fair market of the Wagz inventory by $109,046 and it reserved as bad debt the Wagz total account receivable of $331,283.

Stock Incentive Plans

Stock Incentive Plans

Under the Company’s stock option plans, options to acquire shares of common stock have been made available for grant to certain employees and directors.  Each option granted has an exercise price of not less than 100% of the market value of the common stock on the date of grant.  The contractual life of each option is generally 10 years.  The vesting of the grants varies according to the individual options granted.  The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the grant date fair value and records that cost over the respective vesting period of the award.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the previously reported 2018 financial statements to conform to the 2019 presentation.  There was no change to net income.

Revision Of Previously Issued Financial Statements

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements

During the quarter ended April 30, 2019, the Company identified mechanical errors in its calculation of borrowings and payments under its revolving line of credit presented in the consolidated statement of cash flows. The Company assessed the materiality of these errors considering both qualitative and quantitative factors and determined that for the year ended April 30, 2018, the three month periods ended July 31, 2018 and July 31, 2017,  the six month periods ended October 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017, and the nine month periods ended January 31, 2019 and January 31, 2018, the errors were immaterial. The Company decided to correct these immaterial errors as revisions to previously issued financial statements and will revise the Forms 10-Q when filed in succeeding periods of the next fiscal year.

New Accounting Standards

New Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers(Topic 606)” which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition.”The guidance requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to a customer, and replaces most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP.  The Company adopted the ASU on May 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method.  Under the modified retrospective transition method, the cumulative effect of applying ASC 606 to all contracts that are not completed as of the date of adoption is recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (if applicable) while the comparative periods are not restated and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods.  The Company has determined that the amount of revenue from contracts with customers under the new revenue recognition standard is the same as under prior accounting standards.  Accordingly, the Company did not record an adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings as a result of adopting ASC 606. 

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

New Accounting Standards - Continued

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, which sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). This update requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase of the leased asset by the lessee. This classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, using a modified retrospective approach, with early adoption permitted.

ASC 842 will be effective for the Company on May 1, 2019. There are a number of optional practical expedients made available to simplify the transition of the new standard. The Company has made the following elections:

· to adopt the optional transition method defined within ASU 2018-11 and not restate comparative prior periods but instead recognize a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption;

· to elect the package of three practical expedients addressing whether a contract contains a lease, lease classification and initial direct costs;

· to combine lease and non-lease components as a single component for all asset classes;

· to use a portfolio approach to determine the incremental borrowing rate; and 

· to apply the short-term lease exception to leases that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. 

During fiscal year 2019, the Company made progress on implementing the new standard which included surveying the Company’s businesses, assessing the Company’s portfolio of leases and compiling a central repository of active leases. The Company evaluated key policy elections and considerations under the standard which the Company will utilize to develop an internal policy to address the new standard requirements. The Company continues to assess the impact on its accounting policies, internal control processes and related disclosures required under the new guidance, as well as its process to determine the actual amount of the required transition adjustment to reflect the balance of the right of use asset and lease liability. These conclusions may change as the Company continues to evaluate the new standard or if there are any changes in the Company’s lease portfolio. The Company does not currently believe that the standard will have a material impact on its results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 introduces a new forward-looking approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The estimate of expected credit losses will require entities to incorporate considerations of historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts.  This ASU also expands the disclosure requirements to enable users of financial statements to understand the entity’s assumptions, models and methods for estimating expected credit losses. For public business entities, ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and the guidance is to be applied using the modified-retrospective approach. Earlier adoption is permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance and has not determined the impact this ASU may have on its consolidated financial statements.

settlement of insurance claims related to equipment damaged by a fire and including replacement of inventory and clean-up costs at one of its subsidiaries.  The Company has classified these receipts as cash flows from operating activities for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.  As a result of the adoption of this guidance in fiscal year 2019, the Company reclassified $251,395 of cash receipts related to this insurance settlement from cash flows from operations to cash flows from investing activities in its statements of cash flows for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, “Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” The guidance permits entities to reclassify tax effects stranded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income as a result of tax reform to retained earnings. This new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted in annual and interim periods and can be applied retrospectively or in the period of adoption. The Company adopted this ASU in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending April 30, 2019 and it had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.
