CONDENSED NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA)
(UNAUDITED)

 

 

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the financial information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements, although we believe the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or for any other interim period. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, we have made our best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the condensed consolidated financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. Changes in the estimates and assumptions used by us could have a significant impact on our financial results, since actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nortech Systems Incorporated and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Revenue Recognition

Our revenue is comprised of product, engineering services and repair services. All revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligation(s) under the contract by transferring the promised product or service to our customer either when (or as) our customer obtains control of the product or service, with the majority of our revenue being recognized over time including goods produced under contract manufacturing agreements and services revenue. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation. The majority of our contracts have a single performance obligation. Revenue is recorded net of returns, allowances and customer discounts. Our net sales for services were less than 10% of our total sales for all periods presented, and accordingly, are included in net sales in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Sales, value add, and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net (excluded from revenues) basis. Shipping and handling costs charged to our customers are included in net sales, while the corresponding shipping expenses are included in cost of goods sold.

    107,557     $ 4.06       7.44     $ 8,095  

 

In May 2017, the shareholders approved the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan which authorized the issuance of 400,000 shares, an additional 50,000 shares were authorized in March 2020. There were 11,300 stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

Total compensation expense was $39 and $44 for the three ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of March 31, 2020, there was $341 of unrecognized compensation which will vest over the next 2.78 years.

 

In November 2010, the Board of Directors adopted the Nortech Systems Incorporated Equity Appreciation Rights Plan (“2010 Plan”). The total number of Equity Appreciation Right Units (“Units”) that can be issued under the 2010 Plan shall not exceed an aggregate of 1,000,000 Units as amended and restated on March 11, 2015. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, there were 137,500 units granted. There were no units granted during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, there were 132,500 shares awarded that vested immediately that had expense of $116 during the first quarter.

 

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 there were 2,668,590 diluted shares with $0.05 earnings per diluted share. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, all stock options are deemed to be antidilutive as there was a net loss and, therefore, were not included in the computation of income per common share amount.

 

Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents classified as restricted cash on our condensed consolidated balance sheets are restricted as to withdrawal or use under the terms of certain contractual agreements. The March 31, 2020 balance included lockbox deposits that are temporarily restricted due to timing at the period end. The lockbox deposits are applied against our line of credit the next business day. As of March 31, 2020, we had no outstanding letters of credit.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Credit is extended based upon an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and, while collateral is not required, the Company periodically receives surety bonds that guarantee payment. Credit terms are consistent with industry standards and practices. Trade accounts receivable have been reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts of $325 at March 31, 2020 and $335 at December 31, 2019.

 

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Costs include material, labor, and overhead required in the warehousing and production of our products. Inventory reserves are maintained for the estimated value of the inventories that may have a lower value than stated or quantities in excess of future production needs.

Impairment of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

In accordance with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill is not amortized but is required to be reviewed for impairment at least annually or when events or circumstances indicate that carrying value may exceed fair value. We test impairment annually as of October 1st. No events were identified during the three months ended March 31, 2020 that would require us to test for impairment. In testing goodwill for impairment, we perform a quantitative impairment test, including computing the fair value of the reporting unit and comparing that value to its carrying value. If the fair value is less than it carrying value, then the goodwill is determined to be impaired. In the event that goodwill is impaired, an impairment charge to earnings would become necessary.

Impairment Analysis

We evaluate long-lived assets, primarily property and equipment and intangible assets, as well as the related depreciation periods, whenever current events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability for assets to be held and used is based on our projection of the undiscounted future operating cash flows of the underlying assets. To the extent such projections indicate that future undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the carrying amounts of related assets, a charge might be required to reduce the carrying amount to equal estimated fair value. No impairment expense was recorded during the three ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which amends the guidance on the impairment of financial instruments. The amendments in this update removes the thresholds that entities apply to measure credit losses on financial instruments measured at amortized cost, such as loans, trade receivables, reinsurance recoverables, off-balance-sheet credit exposures, and held-to-maturity securities. Under current U.S. GAAP, entities generally recognize credit losses when it is probable that the loss has been incurred. The guidance removes all current recognition thresholds and introduces the new current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model which will require entities to recognize an allowance for credit losses for the difference between the amortized cost basis of a financial instrument and the amount of amortized cost that an entity expects to collect over the instrument’s contractual life. The new CECL model is based upon expected losses rather than incurred losses. The amendments in this update are effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2022; early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on our financial condition and results of operations.

 

 

NOTE 2. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND MAJOR CUSTOMERS

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. With regard to cash, we maintain our excess cash balances in checking accounts at primarily two financial institutions, one in the United States and one in China. The account in the United States may at times exceed federally insured limits. Of the $974 in cash at March 31, 2020, approximately $703 was held at banks located in China. We grant credit to customers in the normal course of business and do not require collateral on our accounts receivable.

 

Our largest customer has two divisions that together accounted for 10% or more of our net sales during the three month period ended and March 31, 2020 and 2019. One division accounted for approximately 24% and 23% of net sales for the three March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The other division accounted for approximately 2% of net sales for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 and , and approximately 3% net sales for the three month period ended March 31, 2019. Together they accounted for approximately 26% and 26% of net sales for the three March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Accounts receivable from the customer at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 represented approximately 42% and 36% of our total accounts receivable, respectively.

 

Export sales represented approximately 12% and 19% of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

NOTE 3. REVENUE

 

Revenue recognition

Our revenue is comprised of product, engineering services and repair services. All revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligation(s) under the contract by transferring the promised product or service to our customer either when (or as) our customer obtains control of the product or service, with the majority of our revenue being recognized over time including goods produced under contract manufacturing agreements and services revenue. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation. The majority of our contracts have a single performance obligation, as the promise to transfer products or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract and, therefore, not distinct.

 

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring products or providing services. As such, revenue is recorded net of returns, allowances and customer discounts. Sales, value add, and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net (excluded from revenues) basis. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.

 

The majority of our revenue is derived from the transfer of goods produced under contract manufacturing agreements which have no alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment for our performance completed to date. Our performance obligations within our contract manufacturing agreements are generally satisfied over time as the goods are produced based on customer specifications and we have an enforceable right to payment for the goods produced. If these requirements are not met, the revenue is recognized at a point in time, generally upon shipment. Revenue under contract manufacturing agreements that was recognized over time accounted for approximately 88 % and 95% of our revenue for both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Revenues under these agreements are generally recognized over time using an input measure based upon the proportion of actual costs incurred.

 

Accounting for contract manufacturing agreements involves the use of various techniques to estimate total revenue and costs. We estimate profit on these agreements as the difference between total estimated revenue and expected costs to complete the performance obligation within the terms of the agreement and recognize the respective profit as the goods are produced. The estimates to determine the profit earned on the performance obligation are based on anticipated selling prices and historical cost of goods sold and represent our best judgement at the time. Changes in judgements on these above estimates could impact the timing and amount of revenue recognized with a resulting impact on the timing and amount of associated profit.

 

On occasion our customers provide materials to be used in the manufacturing process and the fair value of the materials is included in revenue as noncash consideration at the point in time when the manufacturing process commences along with the same corresponding amount recorded as cost of goods sold. The inclusion of noncash consideration has no impact on overall profitability.

NOTE 4. FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

 

We have a credit agreement with Bank of America which was entered into on June 15, 2017 and amended effective December 29, 2017 and provides for a line of credit arrangement of $16,000 that expires on June 15, 2022. The credit arrangement also has a $5,000 real estate term note outstanding with a maturity date of June 15, 2022.

 

Under the Bank of America credit agreement, both the line of credit and real estate term notes are subject to variations in the LIBOR rate. Our line of credit bears interest at a weighted-average interest rate of 4.8% and 5.6% as of March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We had borrowings on our line of credit of $10,255 and $10,088 outstanding as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. There are no subjective acceleration clauses under the credit agreement that would accelerate the maturity of our outstanding borrowings.

 

The line of credit and real estate term notes with Bank of America contain certain covenants which, among other things, require us to adhere to regular reporting requirements, abide by annual shareholder dividend limitations, maintain certain financial performance, and limit the amount of annual capital expenditures. The availability under our line is subject to borrowing base requirements, and advances are at the discretion of the lender. The line of credit is secured by substantially all of our assets.

 

The Bank of America Credit Agreement provides for, among other things, a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of not less than (i) 1.0 to 1.0, for the three months ending December 31, 2019, six months ending March 31, 2020, nine months ending June 30, 2020 and twelve months ending September 30, 2020 and each Fiscal Quarter end thereafter. The Company met the covenants for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

The availability under the line is subject to borrowing base requirements, and advances are at the discretion of the lender. At March 31, 2020, we had unused availability under our line of credit of $4,115, supported by our borrowing base. The line is secured by substantially all of our assets.

 

Long-term debt at March 31, 2020 and December 30, 2019 consisted of following:

NOTE 5. LEASES

 

We have operating leases for certain manufacturing sites, office space, and equipment. Most leases include the option to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one to five years or more. Right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of the remaining lease payments over the lease term which includes renewal periods we are reasonably certain to exercise. Our leases do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. At March 31, 2020, we do not have material lease commitments that have not commenced.

Our 90-day backlog varies due to order size, manufacturing delays, contract terms and conditions and timing from customer delivery schedules and releases. These variables cause inconsistencies in comparing the backlog from one period to the next. Our total shipment backlog was $53.0 million for both periods ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit as a percent of net sales 11.0% and 10.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. This increase in gross profit as a percent of net sales is mainly due to product and customer mix.

Selling Expense

 

Selling expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $0.6 million or 2.3% of sales and $0.8 million or 2.7% of sales, respectively. The decrease in selling expenses for 2020 is due to lower headcount and consulting costs.

 

General and Administrative Expense

 

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, were $2.0 million or 7.3% of sales and $2.3 million or 8.1% of sales, respectively. This decrease is due to lower headcount and consulting costs.

 

Income (Loss) before Income Taxes

 

First quarter 2020 income from operations was $0.2 million compared to a loss of $0.3 million for the first quarter in 2019.

 

Income Taxes

 

On a quarterly basis, we estimate what our effective tax rate will be for the full fiscal year and record a quarterly income tax provision based on the anticipated rate. As the year progresses, we refine our estimate based on the facts and circumstances, including discrete events, by each tax jurisdiction. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was 18% and (4%), respectively.

 

Net Income (Loss)

 

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $0.1 million or $0.05 per basic and diluted common share and a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 of $0.4 million or $(0.14) per basic and diluted common share.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $0.5 million. The increase in accounts payable positively impacted cash flows, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable. Net cash used in investing of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

We have satisfied our liquidity needs over the past several years with cash flows generated from operations and a bank operating line of credit. We have a credit agreement with Bank of America (BofA) which was entered into on June 15, 2017 and amended on December 29, 2017 and provides for a line of credit arrangement of $16.0 million that expires on June 15, 2022. The credit arrangement also has a $5.0 million real estate term note outstanding with a maturity date of June 15, 2022.

 

Both the line of credit and real estate term notes are subject to fluctuations in the LIBOR rates. The line of credit and real estate term notes with BofA contain certain covenants which, among other things, require us to adhere to regular reporting requirements, abide by annual shareholder dividend limitations, maintain certain financial performance, and limit the amount of annual capital expenditures. The availability under our line is subject to borrowing base requirements, and advances are at the discretion of the lender. The line of credit is secured by substantially all of our assets.

 

20

 

On March 31, 2020, we had outstanding advances of $10.3 million under the line of credit and unused availability of $4.1 million supported by our borrowing base. We believe our financing arrangements and cash flows to be provided by operations will be sufficient to satisfy our future working capital needs. Our working capital was $21.7 million and $21.1 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

 

The Bank of America Credit Agreement provides for, among other things, a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of not less than (i) 1.0 to 1.0 for the three months ending December 31, 2019, six months ending March 31, 2020, nine months ending June 30, 2020 and twelve months ending September 30, 2020 and each fiscal quarter end thereafter. The Company met the covenants for the three months ended March 31.2020.

 

On April 15, 2020, we entered into a Promissory Note with Bank of America, N.A. (the “Promissory Note”), which provides for an unsecured loan of $6.1 million pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act and applicable regulations (the “CARES Act”) of which; funds were received on April 22, 2020. The Promissory Note has a term of 2 years with a 1% per annum interest rate. Payments are deferred for 6 months from the date of the Promissory Note and we can apply for forgiveness of the Promissory Note after 60 days. Forgiveness of the Promissory Note will be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Cares Act and applicable regulations. Any principal and interest amounts outstanding after the determination of amounts forgiven will be repaid on a monthly basis.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have not engaged in any off-balance sheet activities as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our significant accounting policies and estimates are summarized in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Some of our accounting policies require us to exercise significant judgment in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. Such judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. These judgments are based on our historical experience, known trends in our industry, terms of existing contracts and other information from outside sources, as appropriate. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Discussion of these factors is also incorporated in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and should be considered an integral part of Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Unpredictable or unknown factors not discussed herein could also have material adverse effects on forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q are expressly qualified in their entirety by the forgoing cautionary statements. We undertake no obligations to update publicly any forward-looking statement (or its associated cautionary language) whether as a result of new information or future events.

 

Please refer to forward-looking statements and risks as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). These controls and procedures are designed 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 management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon their evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures as of the date of the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

We are affected by the risks specific to us as well as factors that affect all businesses operating in a global market. The significant factors known to us that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results or could cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations are described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended under the heading “Part I – Item 1A.Risk Factors.” Other than as noted below, there have been no material changes in the risk factors from those disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Paycheck Protection Program Promisorry Note

On April 15, 2020, we entered into a Promissory Note with Bank of America, N.A. (the “Promissory Note”), which provides for an unsecured loan of $6.1 million pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act and applicable regulations (the “CARES Act”) of which; funds were received on April 22, 2020. On April 23, 2020, the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) issued new guidance that questioned whether a public company with substantial market value and access to capital markets would qualify to participate in the PPP under the CARES Act. Subsequently, on April 28, 2020, the secretary of the Treasury and SBA announced that the government will review all PPP loans of more than $2 million for which a borrower applies for forgiveness. Should we be audited or reviewed by the U.S. Department of Treasury as a result of filing an application for forgiveness or otherwise, such audit or review could result in legal and reputational costs as well as significant use of management time. In addition, if we are audited and receive an adverse or negative finding in such audit, we could be required to return up to the full amount of the Promissory Note, which would reduce our liquidity by such amount and potentially subject us to fines and penalties.
