NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial information included herein has been prepared by Schmitt Industries, Inc. (the Company or Schmitt) and its wholly owned subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly its financial position as of August 31, 2018 and its results of operations and its cash flows for the periods presented. The consolidated balance sheet at May 31, 2018 has been derived from the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2018. The accompanying unaudited financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2018. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be experienced for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2019.

Revenue Recognition

On June 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

The Company determines the amount of revenue it recognizes associated with the transfer of each product or service using the five-step model provided by Topic 606. For sales of products or delivery of monitoring services to all customers, including manufacturing representatives, distributors or their third-party customers, each transaction is evaluated to determine whether there is approval and commitment from both the Company and the customer for the transaction; whether the rights of each party are specifically identified; whether the transaction has commercial substance; whether collectability from the customer is probable at the inception of the contract and whether the transaction amount is defined. If a transaction to sell products or provide monitoring services meets all of the above criteria, revenue is recognized for the sales of product at the time of shipment or for monitoring services at the completion of the month in which monitoring services are provided.

The Company incurs commissions associated with the sales of products, which are accrued and expensed at the time the product is shipped. These amounts are recorded within general, administration and sales expense.

The Company also incurs costs related to shipping and handling of its products, the costs of which are expensed as incurred as a component of cost of sales. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recognized at the time of shipment as a component of net sales.

Financial Instruments

The carrying value of all other financial instruments potentially subject to valuation risk (principally consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable) also approximates fair value because of their short-term maturities.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of an amount received from a customer in December 2017 as part of an on-going contract. The services being provided under this contract are expected to be completed by December 2018, at which time the restrictions on this payment will lapse.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash as reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018 to the sum of the same such amounts as shown in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended August 31, 2018:

	August 31, 2018		May 31, 2018
Cash and cash equivalents	$	1,742,786	$	2,053,181
Restricted cash		58,040		58,352
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows	$	1,800,826	$	2,111,533

Page 7

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains credit limits for all customers based upon several factors, including but not limited to financial condition and stability, payment history, published credit reports and use of credit references. Management performs various analyses to evaluate accounts receivable balances to ensure recorded amounts reflect estimated net realizable value. This review includes using accounts receivable agings, other operating trends and relevant business conditions, including general economic factors, as they relate to each of the Company’s domestic and international customers. If these analyses lead management to the conclusion that potential significant accounts are uncollectible, a reserve is provided. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $94,756 and $95,207 as of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on the average cost basis. Costs included in inventories consist of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead, which are related to the purchase or production of inventories. Write-downs, when required, are made to reduce excess inventories to their net realizable values. Such estimates are based on assumptions regarding future demand and market conditions. If actual conditions become less favorable than the assumptions used, an additional inventory write-down may be required. As of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018, inventories consisted of:

	August 31, 2018		May 31, 2018
Raw materials	$	2,806,360	$	2,796,691
Work-in-process		1,294,974		1,009,424
Finished goods		2,033,293		1,904,773
	$	6,134,627	$	5,710,888

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of three to seven years for furniture, fixtures and equipment; three years for vehicles; and twenty-five years for buildings and improvements. As of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018, property and equipment consisted of:

	August 31, 2018			May 31, 2018
Land	$	299,000		$	299,000
Buildings and improvements		1,814,524			1,814,524
Furniture, fixtures and equipment		1,257,518			1,252,598
Vehicles		44,704			44,704
		3,415,746			3,410,826
Less accumulated depreciation		(2,660,757	)		(2,639,911	)
	$	754,989		$	770,915

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases previously classified as operating leases. The ASU is required to be applied using a modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the earliest period presented, with optional practical expedients. The FASB recently proposed an optional transition alternative, which would allow for application of the guidance at the beginning of the period in which it is adopted, rather than at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company will adopt the new standard on June 1, 2019.

Page 8

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, including reviewing the standard’s provisions and gathering and analyzing data to support further evaluation of all real estate and non-real estate leases. The Company is also evaluating the impact of the accounting standard on the Company’s financial statement disclosures, systems, processes and controls.

NOTE 2:

STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock-based compensation includes expense charges for all stock-based awards to employees and directors granted under the Company’s stock option plan. Stock-based compensation recognized during the period is based on the portion of the grant date fair value of the stock-based award that will vest during the period, adjusted for expected forfeitures. Compensation cost for all stock-based awards is recognized using the straight-line method. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model as its method of valuation for stock-based awards. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, and other reasonable assumptions could provide differing results. These variables include, but are not limited to:

• Risk-Free Interest Rate. The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent remaining term approximately equal to the expected life of the award.

• Expected Life. The expected life of awards granted represents the period of time that they are expected to be outstanding. The Company determines the expected life based on historical experience with similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules and pre-vesting and post-vesting forfeitures.

• Expected Volatility. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock at the date of grant based on the historical volatility of its common stock. The volatility factor the Company uses is based on its historical stock prices over the most recent period commensurate with the estimated expected life of the award. These historical periods may exclude portions of time when unusual transactions occurred.

• Expected Dividend Yield. The Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, the Company uses an expected dividend yield of 0.

• Expected Forfeitures. The Company uses relevant historical data to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures. The Company records stock-based compensation only for those awards that are expected to vest.

To determine stock-based compensation expense recognized for those options granted during the three months ended August 31, 2018, the Company has computed the value of all stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as prescribed by ASC Topic 718 using the following assumptions:

	Three Months Ended August 31, 2018
Risk-free interest rate	3.1%
Expected life	6.0 years
Expected volatility	46.3%

At August 31, 2018, the Company had a total of 329,999 outstanding stock options (279,164 vested and exercisable and 50,835 non-vested) with a weighted average exercise price of $2.37. The Company estimates that $23,916 will be recorded as additional stock-based compensation expense over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years for all options that were outstanding as of August 31, 2018, but which were not yet vested.

Outstanding Options			Exercisable Options
Number of Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price	Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (yrs)	Number of Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price
167,499	$1.70	8.5	131,664	$1.70

Options granted, exercised, and forfeited or canceled under the Company’s stock option plan during the three months ended August 31, 2018 are summarized as follows:

	Three Months Ended August 31, 2018
	Number of Shares			Weighted Average Exercise Price
Options outstanding - beginning of period		318,332		$	2.36
Options granted		15,000			2.45
Options exercised		0			0
Options forfeited/canceled		(3,333	)		1.70
Options outstanding - end of period		329,999			2.37

EPS RECONCILIATION

	Three Months Ended August 31,
	2018		2017
Weighted average shares (basic)		3,994,545		2,995,910
Effect of dilutive stock options		0		0
Weighted average shares (diluted)		3,994,545		2,995,910

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for dilutive incremental shares attributed to outstanding options to purchase common stock.    Common stock equivalents for stock options are computed using the treasury stock method. In periods in which a net loss is incurred, no common stock equivalents are included since they are antidilutive and as such all stock options outstanding are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss in those periods.

NOTE 4:

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be

Page 10

realized. Management continues to review the level of the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis. There can be no assurance that the Company’s future operations will produce sufficient earnings to allow for the deferred tax asset to be fully utilized. The Company currently maintains a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets.

Each year the Company files income tax returns in the various national, state and local income taxing jurisdictions in which it operates. These tax returns are subject to examination and possible challenge by the taxing authorities. Positions challenged by the taxing authorities may be settled or appealed by the Company. As a result, there is an uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company’s financial statements in accordance with ASC Topic 740. The Company applies this guidance by defining criteria that an individual income tax position must meet for any part of the benefit of that position to be recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and provides guidance on measurement, de-recognition, classification, accounting for interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

Other long-term liabilities related to tax contingencies were $0 as of both August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018. Interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions are recognized as components of the “Provision for income taxes.” The liability for payment of interest and penalties was $0 as of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018.

Several tax years are subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions. In the United States, federal tax years ended May 31, 2015 and after are subject to examination. In the United Kingdom, tax years ended May 31, 2013 and after are subject to examination.

Effective Tax Rate

The effective tax rate on consolidated net loss was 3.1% for the three months ended August 31, 2018. The effective tax rate on consolidated net loss differs from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to changes in the deferred tax valuation allowance and certain expenses not being deductible for income tax reporting purposes. Management believes the effective tax rate for Fiscal 2019 will be approximately 44.9% due to the items noted above.

Net Sales – Total net sales increased $356,805, or 11.6%, to $3,440,453 for the three months ended August 31, 2018 from $3,083,648 for the three months ended August 31, 2017.

The Balancer segment focuses its sales efforts on end-users, rebuilders and original equipment manufacturers of grinding machines within the worldwide machine tool industry, with our primary target geographic markets being North America, Asia, and Europe. Balancer segment sales increased $123,935, or 6.0%, to $2,194,332 for the three months ended August 31, 2018 as compared to $2,070,397 for the three months ended August 31, 2017. The increase was attributed to stronger sales in both North America and Asia, offset by lighter sales in the European market. Sales by geographic markets for the Balancer segment for the three months ended August 31, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended August 31,
	2018		2017		Variance
North America	$	990,881	$	850,142	$	140,739		16.6	%
Asia		789,586		746,797		42,789		5.7	%
Europe		371,852		448,196		(76,344	)	(17.0	%)
Other		42,013		25,262		16,751		66.3	%
Total Balancer segment sales	$	2,194,332	$	2,070,397	$	123,935		6.0	%

The levels of demand for our Balancer products in any of these geographic markets cannot be forecasted with any certainty given current economic trends and the historical volatility experienced in this market.

The Measurement segment includes two main product lines: the Acuity^® product line, which includes laser-based distance measurement and dimensional sizing laser sensors; and the Xact^® product line, which includes ultrasonic-based remote tank monitoring products and related monitoring revenues. Measurement sales increased $232,870, or 23.0%, to $1,246,121 for the three months ended August 31, 2018 as compared to $1,013,251 for the three months ended August 31, 2017. This increase is primarily driven by stronger product sales and increases in monitoring revenues associated with the Xact product line. Sales by product line for the Measurement segment for first quarter of Fiscal 2019 as compared to the first quarter of Fiscal 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended August 31,
	2018		2017		Variance
Acuity	$	420,372	$	582,635	$	(162,263	)	(27.8	%)
Xact - product sales		508,826		148,019		360,807		243.8	%
Xact - monitoring revenues		316,173		274,957		41,216		15.0	%
Lasercheck		0		7,640		(7,640	)	(100.0	%)
SMS		750		0		750
Total Measurement segment sales	$	1,246,121	$	1,013,251	$	232,870		23.0	%

Gross margin – Gross margin for the three months ended August 31, 2018 decreased to 38.9% as compared to 45.4% for the three months ended August 31, 2017. The variances in gross margin between the periods presented were primarily influenced by shifts in the product sales mix between higher margin products in Acuity and SBS product lines and lower margin products in the Xact product line and an increase in product costs between the first quarter of Fiscal 2018 and the first quarter of Fiscal 2019.

Operating expenses – Operating expenses decreased $91,201, or 5.9%, to $1,453,600 for the three months ended August 31, 2018 from $1,544,801 for the three months ended August 31, 2017. The decrease in operating expenses was driven, in part, by the following:

• Decrease in administrative wages and related payroll expenses in the amount of $112,431, or 28.5%, related to the realigning of the management team which occurred in the second half of Fiscal 2018;

• Decrease in research and development expense in the amount of $28,220, or 36.9%, related to the timing of certain product development initiatives;

• Decrease in commissions expense in the amount of $32,090, or 12.9%, due to restructuring of the Company’s sales commissions programs; and

• Decrease in other administrative expenses in the amount of $52,766, or 26.0%, related to controlled expense initiatives put in place in the second half of Fiscal 2018.

These decreases were offset by:

• Increase in legal, accounting and other professional expenses in the amount of $162,155, or 68.8%. The increase is primarily related to additional legal and other professional expenses in the amount of $132,050 incurred during the first quarter of Fiscal 2019 that were not incurred in the same period in the prior year.

Other income (expense) – Other income (expense) consists of foreign currency exchange gain (loss), interest income (expense) and other income (expense). Foreign currency exchange gains (losses) were $(98,872) and $17,441 for the three months ended August 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The shifts in the foreign currency exchange are related to significant fluctuations of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar during the current period of Fiscal 2019. Interest income (expense), net was $7,207 and $97 for the three months ended August 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Other income (expense) was $14 for the first quarter of Fiscal 2019 as compared to $5 for the same period in the prior year.

Income taxes – The Company’s effective tax rate on consolidated net loss was (3.1)% for the three months ended August 31, 2018. The effective tax rate on consolidated net loss differs from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to changes in the deferred tax valuation allowance and certain expenses not being deductible for income tax reporting purposes. Management believes the effective tax rate for Fiscal 2019 will be approximately 44.9% due to the items noted above.

Net loss – Net loss was $211,819, or $(0.05) per fully diluted share, for the three months ended August 31, 2018 as compared to net loss of $134,098, or $(0.04) per fully diluted share, for the three months ended August 31, 2017.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s working capital decreased $84,506 to $8,163,467 as of August 31, 2018 as compared to $8,247,973 as of May 31, 2017.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash decreased $310,707 to $1,800,826 as of August 31, 2018 from $2,111,533 as of May 31, 2018. Cash used in operating activities totaled $402,466 for the three months ended August 31, 2018 as compared to cash used in operating activities of $315,381 for the three months ended August 31, 2017. The net loss of $211,819 along with

Page 15

increases in inventories, offset by decreases in accounts receivable primarily impacted the total cash used in operating activities for the three months ended August 31, 2018. The net loss of $134,098 and changes in accounts receivable, inventories and accounts payable and accrued liabilities had the largest impact on the cash used in operating activities for the three month period ended August 31, 2017.

At August 31, 2018, the Company had accounts receivable of $1,871,737 as compared to $2,047,032 at May 31, 2018. The decrease in accounts receivable of $175,295 was due to timing of receipts. Inventories increased $423,739 to $6,134,627 as of August 31, 2018 as compared to $5,710,888 at May 31, 2018, which is due primarily to the targeted increases in inventory levels within our SBS and Xact product lines. At August 31, 2018, total current liabilities decreased $6,798 to $1,763,606, as compared to $1,770,404 at May 31, 2018. The decrease in current liabilities is primarily due to the timing of payments to our vendors, sales representatives and Company personnel.

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents combined with the cash we anticipate to generate from operating activities and the Rights Offering discussed above will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for the foreseeable future. We do not have any significant commitments nor are we aware of any significant events or conditions that are likely to have a material impact on our liquidity or capital resources.

Risk Factors

Please refer to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2018 for a listing of factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There have been no material changes from the information previously reported under Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2018.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of August 31, 2018, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on the evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner, and (2) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives, and management necessarily is required to use its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, such internal control over financial reporting.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

NOTE 1:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial information included herein has been prepared by Schmitt Industries, Inc. (the Company or Schmitt) and its wholly owned subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly its financial position as of August 31, 2018 and its results of operations and its cash flows for the periods presented. The consolidated balance sheet at May 31, 2018 has been derived from the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2018. The accompanying unaudited financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2018. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be experienced for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2019.

Revenue Recognition

On June 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

The Company determines the amount of revenue it recognizes associated with the transfer of each product or service using the five-step model provided by Topic 606. For sales of products or delivery of monitoring services to all customers, including manufacturing representatives, distributors or their third-party customers, each transaction is evaluated to determine whether there is approval and commitment from both the Company and the customer for the transaction; whether the rights of each party are specifically identified; whether the transaction has commercial substance; whether collectability from the customer is probable at the inception of the contract and whether the transaction amount is defined. If a transaction to sell products or provide monitoring services meets all of the above criteria, revenue is recognized for the sales of product at the time of shipment or for monitoring services at the completion of the month in which monitoring services are provided.

The Company incurs commissions associated with the sales of products, which are accrued and expensed at the time the product is shipped. These amounts are recorded within general, administration and sales expense.

The Company also incurs costs related to shipping and handling of its products, the costs of which are expensed as incurred as a component of cost of sales. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recognized at the time of shipment as a component of net sales.

Financial Instruments

The carrying value of all other financial instruments potentially subject to valuation risk (principally consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable) also approximates fair value because of their short-term maturities.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of an amount received from a customer in December 2017 as part of an on-going contract. The services being provided under this contract are expected to be completed by December 2018, at which time the restrictions on this payment will lapse.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash as reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018 to the sum of the same such amounts as shown in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended August 31, 2018:

	August 31, 2018		May 31, 2018
Cash and cash equivalents	$	1,742,786	$	2,053,181
Restricted cash		58,040		58,352
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows	$	1,800,826	$	2,111,533

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains credit limits for all customers based upon several factors, including but not limited to financial condition and stability, payment history, published credit reports and use of credit references. Management performs various analyses to evaluate accounts receivable balances to ensure recorded amounts reflect estimated net realizable value. This review includes using accounts receivable agings, other operating trends and relevant business conditions, including general economic factors, as they relate to each of the Company’s domestic and international customers. If these analyses lead management to the conclusion that potential significant accounts are uncollectible, a reserve is provided. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $94,756 and $95,207 as of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on the average cost basis. Costs included in inventories consist of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead, which are related to the purchase or production of inventories. Write-downs, when required, are made to reduce excess inventories to their net realizable values. Such estimates are based on assumptions regarding future demand and market conditions. If actual conditions become less favorable than the assumptions used, an additional inventory write-down may be required. As of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018, inventories consisted of:

	August 31, 2018		May 31, 2018
Raw materials	$	2,806,360	$	2,796,691
Work-in-process		1,294,974		1,009,424
Finished goods		2,033,293		1,904,773
	$	6,134,627	$	5,710,888

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of three to seven years for furniture, fixtures and equipment; three years for vehicles; and twenty-five years for buildings and improvements. As of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018, property and equipment consisted of:

	August 31, 2018			May 31, 2018
Land	$	299,000		$	299,000
Buildings and improvements		1,814,524			1,814,524
Furniture, fixtures and equipment		1,257,518			1,252,598
Vehicles		44,704			44,704
		3,415,746			3,410,826
Less accumulated depreciation		(2,660,757	)		(2,639,911	)
	$	754,989		$	770,915

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases previously classified as operating leases. The ASU is required to be applied using a modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the earliest period presented, with optional practical expedients. The FASB recently proposed an optional transition alternative, which would allow for application of the guidance at the beginning of the period in which it is adopted, rather than at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company will adopt the new standard on June 1, 2019.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, including reviewing the standard’s provisions and gathering and analyzing data to support further evaluation of all real estate and non-real estate leases. The Company is also evaluating the impact of the accounting standard on the Company’s financial statement disclosures, systems, processes and controls.

Stock Options and Stock-Based Compensation

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]

Stock Options and Stock-Based Compensation

NOTE 2:

STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock-based compensation includes expense charges for all stock-based awards to employees and directors granted under the Company’s stock option plan. Stock-based compensation recognized during the period is based on the portion of the grant date fair value of the stock-based award that will vest during the period, adjusted for expected forfeitures. Compensation cost for all stock-based awards is recognized using the straight-line method. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model as its method of valuation for stock-based awards. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, and other reasonable assumptions could provide differing results. These variables include, but are not limited to:

• Risk-Free Interest Rate. The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent remaining term approximately equal to the expected life of the award.

• Expected Life. The expected life of awards granted represents the period of time that they are expected to be outstanding. The Company determines the expected life based on historical experience with similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules and pre-vesting and post-vesting forfeitures.

• Expected Volatility. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock at the date of grant based on the historical volatility of its common stock. The volatility factor the Company uses is based on its historical stock prices over the most recent period commensurate with the estimated expected life of the award. These historical periods may exclude portions of time when unusual transactions occurred.

• Expected Dividend Yield. The Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, the Company uses an expected dividend yield of 0.

• Expected Forfeitures. The Company uses relevant historical data to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures. The Company records stock-based compensation only for those awards that are expected to vest.

To determine stock-based compensation expense recognized for those options granted during the three months ended August 31, 2018, the Company has computed the value of all stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as prescribed by ASC Topic 718 using the following assumptions:

	Three Months Ended August 31, 2018
Risk-free interest rate	3.1%
Expected life	6.0 years
Expected volatility	46.3%

At August 31, 2018, the Company had a total of 329,999 outstanding stock options (279,164 vested and exercisable and 50,835 non-vested) with a weighted average exercise price of $2.37. The Company estimates that $23,916 will be recorded as additional stock-based compensation expense over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years for all options that were outstanding as of August 31, 2018, but which were not yet vested.

Outstanding Options			Exercisable Options
Number of Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price	Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (yrs)	Number of Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price
167,499	$1.70	8.5	131,664	$1.70
30,000	2.49	7.4	15,000	2.53

55,000	3.65	2.8	55,000	3.65
329,999	2.37	6.7	279,164	2.45

Options granted, exercised, and forfeited or canceled under the Company’s stock option plan during the three months ended August 31, 2018 are summarized as follows:

	Three Months Ended August 31, 2018
	Number of Shares			Weighted Average Exercise Price
Options outstanding - beginning of period		318,332		$	2.36
Options granted		15,000			2.45
Options exercised		0			0
Options forfeited/canceled		(3,333	)		1.70
Options outstanding - end of period		329,999			2.37

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for dilutive incremental shares attributed to outstanding options to purchase common stock.    Common stock equivalents for stock options are computed using the treasury stock method. In periods in which a net loss is incurred, no common stock equivalents are included since they are antidilutive and as such all stock options outstanding are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss in those periods.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

NOTE 4:

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management continues to review the level of the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis. There can be no assurance that the Company’s future operations will produce sufficient earnings to allow for the deferred tax asset to be fully utilized. The Company currently maintains a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets.

Each year the Company files income tax returns in the various national, state and local income taxing jurisdictions in which it operates. These tax returns are subject to examination and possible challenge by the taxing authorities. Positions challenged by the taxing authorities may be settled or appealed by the Company. As a result, there is an uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company’s financial statements in accordance with ASC Topic 740. The Company applies this guidance by defining criteria that an individual income tax position must meet for any part of the benefit of that position to be recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and provides guidance on measurement, de-recognition, classification, accounting for interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

Other long-term liabilities related to tax contingencies were $0 as of both August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018. Interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions are recognized as components of the “Provision for income taxes.” The liability for payment of interest and penalties was $0 as of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018.

Several tax years are subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions. In the United States, federal tax years ended May 31, 2015 and after are subject to examination. In the United Kingdom, tax years ended May 31, 2013 and after are subject to examination.

Effective Tax Rate

The effective tax rate on consolidated net loss was 3.1% for the three months ended August 31, 2018. The effective tax rate on consolidated net loss differs from the federal statutory tax rate primarily due to changes in the deferred tax valuation allowance and certain expenses not being deductible for income tax reporting purposes. Management believes the effective tax rate for Fiscal 2019 will be approximately 44.9% due to the items noted above.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly its financial position as of August 31, 2018 and its results of operations and its cash flows for the periods presented. The consolidated balance sheet at May 31, 2018 has been derived from the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2018. The accompanying unaudited financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2018. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be experienced for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2019.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

On June 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

The Company determines the amount of revenue it recognizes associated with the transfer of each product or service using the five-step model provided by Topic 606. For sales of products or delivery of monitoring services to all customers, including manufacturing representatives, distributors or their third-party customers, each transaction is evaluated to determine whether there is approval and commitment from both the Company and the customer for the transaction; whether the rights of each party are specifically identified; whether the transaction has commercial substance; whether collectability from the customer is probable at the inception of the contract and whether the transaction amount is defined. If a transaction to sell products or provide monitoring services meets all of the above criteria, revenue is recognized for the sales of product at the time of shipment or for monitoring services at the completion of the month in which monitoring services are provided.

The Company incurs commissions associated with the sales of products, which are accrued and expensed at the time the product is shipped. These amounts are recorded within general, administration and sales expense.

The Company also incurs costs related to shipping and handling of its products, the costs of which are expensed as incurred as a component of cost of sales. Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recognized at the time of shipment as a component of net sales.

Financial Instruments

Financial Instruments

The carrying value of all other financial instruments potentially subject to valuation risk (principally consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable) also approximates fair value because of their short-term maturities.

Restricted Cash

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of an amount received from a customer in December 2017 as part of an on-going contract. The services being provided under this contract are expected to be completed by December 2018, at which time the restrictions on this payment will lapse.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash as reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018 to the sum of the same such amounts as shown in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended August 31, 2018:

	August 31, 2018		May 31, 2018
Cash and cash equivalents	$	1,742,786	$	2,053,181
Restricted cash		58,040		58,352
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows	$	1,800,826	$	2,111,533

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains credit limits for all customers based upon several factors, including but not limited to financial condition and stability, payment history, published credit reports and use of credit references. Management performs various analyses to evaluate accounts receivable balances to ensure recorded amounts reflect estimated net realizable value. This review includes using accounts receivable agings, other operating trends and relevant business conditions, including general economic factors, as they relate to each of the Company’s domestic and international customers. If these analyses lead management to the conclusion that potential significant accounts are uncollectible, a reserve is provided. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $94,756 and $95,207 as of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on the average cost basis. Costs included in inventories consist of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead, which are related to the purchase or production of inventories. Write-downs, when required, are made to reduce excess inventories to their net realizable values. Such estimates are based on assumptions regarding future demand and market conditions. If actual conditions become less favorable than the assumptions used, an additional inventory write-down may be required. As of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018, inventories consisted of:

	August 31, 2018		May 31, 2018
Raw materials	$	2,806,360	$	2,796,691
Work-in-process		1,294,974		1,009,424
Finished goods		2,033,293		1,904,773
	$	6,134,627	$	5,710,888

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of three to seven years for furniture, fixtures and equipment; three years for vehicles; and twenty-five years for buildings and improvements. As of August 31, 2018 and May 31, 2018, property and equipment consisted of:

	August 31, 2018			May 31, 2018

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases previously classified as operating leases. The ASU is required to be applied using a modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the earliest period presented, with optional practical expedients. The FASB recently proposed an optional transition alternative, which would allow for application of the guidance at the beginning of the period in which it is adopted, rather than at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company will adopt the new standard on June 1, 2019.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, including reviewing the standard’s provisions and gathering and analyzing data to support further evaluation of all real estate and non-real estate leases. The Company is also evaluating the impact of the accounting standard on the Company’s financial statement disclosures, systems, processes and controls.
