SCI ENGINEERED MATERIALS, INC

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1.  Business Organization and Purpose

 

SCI Engineered Materials, Inc. (“SCI”, or the “Company”), an Ohio corporation, was incorporated in 1987.  The Company operates in one segment as a global supplier and manufacturer of advanced materials for Physical Vapor Deposition (“PVD”) Thin Film Applications.  The Company is focused on specific markets within the PVD industry (Photonics, Thin Film Solar, Glass and Transparent Electronics).  Substantially all of the Company’s revenues are generated from customers with multi-national operations.  The Company develops innovative customized solutions enabling commercial success through collaboration with end users and Original Equipment Manufacturers.

 

Note 2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented have been included. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2018. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

 

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Note 3.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Leases - In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases. The amendments in ASU 2018-10 clarify, correct or remove inconsistencies in the guidance provided under ASU 2016-02 related to sixteen specific issues identified. Also in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements to Topic 842. This amendment provides the Company with an additional and optional transition method to adopt the new lease standard. Under this new transition method, the Company can apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption and present the accounting on a prospective or go-forward basis instead of applying to the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements.  The new lease standard became effective for the Company January 1, 2019.

 

The Company elected to apply the new transition method upon adoption of the new standard.  The Company also elected the available practical expedients on adoption.  The new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s income statements. The most significant impact of the new standard was the recognition of a ROU asset and lease liability of over $500,000 as of January 1, 2019.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 3.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

 

Revenue Recognition - The core principle of ASC 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company’s analysis of sales contracts under ASC 606 supports the recognition of revenue at a point in time, typically when title passes to the customer upon shipment, which is consistent with the previous revenue recognition model.

 

The core principle of ASC 606 is supported by five steps which are listed below:

 

1.Identify the contract with the customer.
2.Identify the performance obligation in the contract.
3.Determine the transaction price.
4.Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract.
5.Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2018 utilizing the modified retrospective approach method as applied to customer contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. As a result, financial information for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 are presented in accordance with ASC 606, while comparative financial information has not been adjusted and continues to be reported in accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policies prior to the adoption of ASC 606. Implementation of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements as the Company’s method for recognizing revenue subsequent to the implementation of ASC 606 does not vary significantly from its revenue recognition practices under the prior revenue standard. Accordingly, there was no required cumulative adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2018.

 

The Company enters into contracts with its customers that generally represent purchase orders specifying general terms and conditions, order quantities and per unit product prices. The Company has determined that each unit of product purchased represents a separate performance obligation. The Company satisfies its performance obligations and recognizes revenue at a point in time when control of a unit of product is transferred to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products. For the majority of product sales, transfer of control occurs when the products are shipped from the Company's manufacturing facility to the customer. The cost of delivering products to the Company's customers is recorded as a component of cost of products sold. Those costs may include the amounts paid to a third party to deliver the products. Any freight costs billed to and paid by a customer are included in revenue.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 3.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

 

The Company considers collectability of amounts due under a contract to be probable upon inception of a sale based on an evaluation of the credit worthiness of each customer. The Company sells its products typically under agreements with payment terms less than 45 days. The Company does not typically include extended payment terms or significant financing components in contracts with customers. The majority of the Company’s contracts have an obligation to transfer products within one year. Sales commissions are expensed when incurred and recorded within marketing and sales expenses. The Company treats shipping and handling activities that occur after control of the product transfers as fulfillment activities, and therefore, does not account for shipping and handling costs as a separate performance obligation. Customer deposits are funds received in advance from customers and are recognized as revenue when the Company has transferred control of product to the customer.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, revenue from the photonics market was approximately 100% and 71% of total revenue, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, revenue from the photonics market was approximately 97% and 80% of total revenue, respectively. The balance of the revenue in these periods was almost entirely from the thin film solar market. The top two customers represented approximately 79% and 63% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. International shipments resulted in 10% and 20% of total revenue for the first nine months of 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Note 4.  Common Stock and Stock Options

 

Stock Based Compensation cost for all stock awards is based on the grant date fair value and recognized over the required service (vesting) period. Non cash stock based compensation expense was $32,765 and $40,941 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Non cash stock based compensation expense was $98,301 and $83,960 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense was $17,473 as of September 30, 2019 and will be recognized through 2023. There was no tax benefit recorded for this compensation cost as the expense relates to incentive stock options that do not qualify for a tax deduction until, and only if, a qualifying disposition occurs.

 

The non-employee Board members received compensation of 35,725 and 52,487 aggregate shares of common stock of the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Note 7.  Earnings Per Share

 

Basic income per share is calculated as income applicable to common shareholders divided by the weighted average of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated as diluted income applicable to common shareholders divided by the diluted weighted average number of common shares. Diluted weighted average number of common shares gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. Diluted earnings per share exclude all diluted potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. All convertible preferred stock and common stock options listed in Note 4 that were out-of-the-money or anti-dilutive were excluded from diluted earnings per share. The following is provided to reconcile the earnings per share calculations:

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

 

Executive Summary

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, we had total revenue of $3,255,201. This was an increase of $602,566, or 22.7%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we had total revenue of $10,012,187. This was an increase of $2,968,943, or 42.2%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Volume and pricing were higher in our photonics market during 2019. We expect revenue for the full year 2019 to exceed full year 2018. We anticipate revenue to be lower in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to recent quarters as a result of product mix and continued uncertainties concerning the thin film solar market in China.

 

Gross profit was $458,520 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $665,884 for the same three months in 2018 and $1,849,491 and $1,917,425 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Operating expenses were $391,649 and $519,187 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and $1,442,519 and $1,353,025 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The transition costs related to our new President and CEO working closely with our former President and CEO led to increased expenses during the first half of 2019. Our former President and CEO retired in June of 2019 and these expenses are expected to continue to be lower for the remainder of this year.

 

We have new materials under development that may replace the Cadmium Sulfide buffer layer in CIGS solar cells. These materials were tested at Case Western Reserve University during the second half of 2017 and the results support the use of our innovative material in thin film solar applications that could lead to higher efficiencies. We are working with customers through product trials and qualifications to accelerate adoption of these materials. We continue to invest in developing new products for all of our markets including transparent conductive oxide systems for the thin film solar and display markets as well as with our transparent electronic products. Those products involve research and development expense to accelerate time to market.

 

A bonding facility and on-site training was completed in the second quarter of 2019 pursuant to a joint agreement with publicly owned Konfoong Materials International Co., LTD (KFMI). KFMI will bond rotatable thin film solar Aluminum Zinc Oxide cylinders produced in Columbus, Ohio for thin film solar customers in China. This arrangement is intended to enable us to provide an advantage to thin film solar customers in China and to also enhance our access to this growing market. We will continue to produce the ceramic portion of the end product in our facility in Columbus. We will continue to exercise control over our trade secrets and proprietary property through assiduous scrutiny of our Intellectual Property. Our products for photonics and thin film solar customers in areas other than China will continue to be bonded at our manufacturing facility in Columbus.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 (unaudited) compared to three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 (unaudited):

 

Revenue

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, we had total revenue of $3,255,201. This was an increase of $602,566, or 22.7%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we had total revenue of $10,012,187 compared to $7,043,244 for the same period in 2018. This was an increase of $2,968,943 or 42.2%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Volume and pricing were higher in our photonics market and volume was lower in our thin film solar market during 2019.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit was $458,520 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $665,884 for the same three months in 2018. This was a decrease of $207,364, or 31.1%. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue (gross margin) was 14.1% for the third quarter of 2019 compared to 25.1% for the same period in 2018. Gross profit was $1,849,491 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $1,917,425 for the first nine months of 2018. This was a decrease of $67,934 or 3.5%. Gross margin was 18.5% for the first nine months of 2019 compared to 27.2% for the same period in 2018. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to product mix including lower volume in our thin film solar market previously mentioned. A certain raw material related to the increased volume in our photonics market had an increase in pricing which contributed to a lower gross margin which impacted overall gross margin.

 

General and Administrative Expense

 

General and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, was $247,984 and $310,464, respectively, a decrease of 20.1%. This decrease was primarily related to lower compensation of approximately $67,000, principally due to the retirement in June of 2019 of our former President and CEO.

 

General and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, was $957,420 and $840,171, respectively, an increase of 14.0%. This increase was primarily related to higher compensation of approximately $15,000, higher director compensation of $37,000, higher professional fees of $30,000 and start-up training costs at KFMI in China of approximately $11,000. The transition of our new President and CEO working closely with our former President and CEO led to increased expenses during the first half of 2019. Our former CEO retired in June of 2019 and these expenses are expected to continue to be lower for the remainder of this year.

 

Professional Fees

 

Included in total expense was $39,799 and $35,022 for professional fees for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and $160,252 and $130,657 for professional fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These ongoing expenses were primarily related to SEC compliance costs for legal, accounting and stockholder relations fees as well as costs associated with the transition of our new President and CEO.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)

 

Research and Development Expense

 

Research and development expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019, was $80,203 compared to $98,514 for the same period in 2018, a decrease of 18.6%. The decrease is primarily related to less compensation. Research and development expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, was $283,672 compared to $252,049 for the same period in 2018, an increase of 12.5%. This increase was principally due to ongoing research as we continue to invest in developing new applications for all of our markets including an innovative buffer layer for thin film solar cells, transparent conductive oxide systems for transparent electronics and thin film solar. These efforts include accelerating time to market for those applications and involve ongoing research and development expense.

 

Marketing and Sales Expense

 

Marketing and sales expense was $63,462 and $110,209 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This was a decrease of $46,747 or 42.4%. This decrease was primarily related to lower compensation and commissions of approximately $43,000.

 

Marketing and sales expense was $201,427 and $260,805 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This was a decrease of $59,378 or 22.8%. This decrease was primarily related to lower compensation of approximately $42,000 due to the allocation of salary expenses for our new President and CEO who previously was also engaged in marketing and sales activities. In addition, commissions were lower by approximately $16,000 compared to the same time period in 2018.

 

Stock Compensation Expense

 

Included in total expenses were non-cash stock based compensation costs of $32,765 and $40,941 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $98,301 and $83,960 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This increase was primarily related to higher director compensation. Compensation expense for all stock-based awards is based on the grant date fair value and recognized over the required service (vesting) period. Unrecognized non-cash stock based compensation expense was $17,473 as of September 30, 2019 and will be recognized through 2023.

 

Interest

 

Interest expense was $4,539 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $18,020 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Interest income was $2,015 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Interest expense was $10,949 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Interest expense during 2019 was higher due to the new operating lease standard that became effective January 1, 2019 which reclasses a portion of rent expense to interest expense.

 

Income Applicable to Common Stock

 

Income applicable to common stock for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, was $56,294 and $138,088, respectively. Income applicable to common stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $365,978 and $524,259, respectively.

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Note 2 to the Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory allowances, property and equipment depreciable lives, patents and licenses useful lives, revenue recognition, tax valuation allowance, stock based compensation and assessing changes in which impairment of certain long-lived assets may occur. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions and estimates used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on our assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and the aging of the accounts receivable. If there is a deterioration of a major customer’s credit worthiness or actual defaults are higher than our historical experience, our estimates of the recoverability of amounts due us could be adversely affected. Inventory purchases and commitments are based upon future demand forecasts. If there is a sudden and significant decrease in demand for our products or there is a higher risk of inventory obsolescence because of rapidly changing technology and customer requirements, we may be required to increase our inventory allowances and our gross margin could be adversely affected. Depreciable and useful lives estimated for property and equipment, licenses and patents are based on initial expectations of the period of time these assets and intangibles will benefit us. Changes in circumstances related to a change in our business, change in technology or other factors could result in these assets becoming impaired, which could adversely affect the value of these assets.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Due to a segregation of duties material weakness described below, and based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of September 30, 2019, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, at the reasonable assurance level, in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act and in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, as appropriate to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure. Until we are able to hire additional employees, we will continue to report to the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors at least monthly (and more often as necessary). We believe this will continue to mitigate this weakness. This reporting includes balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of cash flows, and other detail supporting these statements. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operation, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for all periods presented.

 

Inherent Limitations over Internal Controls

 

Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures (continued)

 

Management previously disclosed a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting in its annual report on Form 10-K, filed on February 5, 2019, for the year ended December 31, 2018, relating to insufficient segregation of duties consistent with control objectives. Management is aware of the risks associated with the lack of segregation of duties due to the small number of employees currently working with general administrative and financial matters. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions shall be performed by separate individuals. In order to remediate this weakness, we will need to hire additional employees. Although we will periodically reevaluate this situation, at this point we consider that the risks associated with such lack of segregation of duties and the potential benefits of adding employees to segregate such duties are not cost justified. Until we are able to hire additional employees, we will continue to report to the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors at least monthly (and more often as necessary). We believe these efforts address this weakness. These reports include balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of cash flows, and other detail supporting these statements.

 

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting for the three months ended September 30, 2019, that materially affected or were reasonably likely to materially affect our disclosure controls and procedures. Additionally, there were no changes in our internal controls that could materially affect our disclosure controls and procedures subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
