PART I

Item 1. Business.

GENERAL

Table Trac, Inc. (the “Company” or “Table Trac”) is a Nevada corporation, formed on June 27, 1995, with principal offices in Minnetonka, Minnesota.

The Company has developed and patented (U.S. patent # 5,957,776) a proprietary information and management system (called our “Table Trac” system) that automates and monitors the operations of casino table game operations. In addition to its table games management system, Table Trac has been adding functionality to related casino system modules for guest rewards and loyalty club, marketing analysis, guest service, promotions, administration / management, vault / cage management and audit / accounting tasks. Aggregated together, all of these modules have become the “Casino Trac” product, a full-featured Casino Management System (CMS) offering what we believe to be a powerful combination of value, efficiency and reliability for casinos seeking to add or upgrade their casino systems.

The Company sells systems and technical support to casinos. The open architecture of the Table Trac system is designed to provide operators with a scalable and flexible system that can interconnect and operate with most third-party software or hardware. Key products and services forming a part of the Table Trac system include modules designed to drive player tracking programs and kiosk promotions, as well as vault and cage controls. The Company’s systems meet the strictest auditing, accounting and regulatory requirements. The Company has developed a patented, real-time system that automates and monitors the operations of casino gaming tables. 

The Company continues to increase its market share by expanding its product offerings to include new system features and ancillary products.

TABLE TRAC INSTALLATIONS

Table Trac currently has casino management systems, table games management systems and ancillary products installed with on-going support and maintenance contracts at 71 casinos worldwide in the U.S., Caribbean, Central and South America.

AVAILABILITY OF TABLE TRAC

Table Trac systems are available for purchase from the Company by any legal gambling casino in the U.S. and legal casinos operating outside the U.S. Table Trac’s systems are purchased, installed and sold with a monthly license and maintenance contract whereby Table Trac performs required maintenance on its systems to assure trouble-free operations.

MANUFACTURING CAPABILITIES

The Company designs and manufactures its own table game interface units and slot machine gaming machine interface boards using the services of third-party electronics assembly firms. The Company has relationships with a host of third-party electronic and gaming equipment manufacturers that can be readily available for hire, as needed.

TRADEMARKS AND PATENTS

The Company filed for its provisional patent application in August 1995, and filed for its final application in August 1996. This application was approved and issued on September 28, 2000, as patent number 5,957,776.

The Company has a registered trademark (“TABLE TRAC”), which was originally issued on September 7, 2000.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2015, the Company had 20 full-time equivalents with an employee headcount of 21, and engaged the services of three contract specialists during the course of the year.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

The Company signed nineteen new customer contracts in 2015 and expanded the Company’s presence in California, and Oklahoma, and entered new territories in Iowa and Colombia. At the end of 2015, the Company had casino management systems, table games management systems and ancillary products installed with on-going support and maintenance contracts with 71 casino operators worldwide. 

At its annual shareholder meeting in August 2015, the Company re-elected Steven A. Browne, Louis Fornetti, and Gary Loebig as its independent board members; along with Chad Hoehne, Table Trac’s, President and founder, and Brian Hinchley, Chief Executive Officer, to the Board of Directors. The board re-elected Mr. Browne as Chairman of the Board, while Mr. Fornetti and Mr. Loebig were re-elected to serve as chairmen of the audit and compensation committees, respectively.

During 2015, the Company participated in several key industry trade shows and conferences, including the ICE Gaming Show, the Caribbean Gaming Show, the National Indian Gaming Association Trade Show and Conference, the Gaming Technology Summit, the Midwest Gaming Conference, the Oklahoma Indian Gaming Association Trade Show and Conference, Raving’s Casino Marketing Conference and Table Games Conference, and Global Gaming Expo (G2E), the industry’s premier event.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

The Company’s business is subject to unpredictable order flows, which might cause its results to fluctuate significantly from period to period.

Individual system sales can have a long sales cycle, resulting in unpredictable revenue from such sales. Other revenue is derived from expansion opportunities at existing customer facilities and, although existing customers have in the past engaged us to provide expanded services and systems, there is no contractual agreement to provide us with any minimum volume or the ability to expand our services and systems. For these reasons, the Company can experience unpredictable order flows for system expansions.

We are dependent on our intellectual property and we may be unable to protect our intellectual property from infringement, or misappropriation.

The gaming industry and the software industry are in general characterized by the use of various forms of intellectual property. We are dependent upon patented technologies, trademarked brands and proprietary information for our business. We endeavor to protect our intellectual property rights and our products through a combination of patent, trademark, trade dress, copyright and trade secret laws, as well as licensing agreements and third-party nondisclosure and assignment agreements. We cannot, however, be certain that any trademark, copyright, issued patent or other types of intellectual property will provide competitive advantages for us. Furthermore, we cannot be certain that our efforts to protect our intellectual property rights or products will be successful.

Our existing patents may be found invalid or unenforceable and any current or future patent applications may not be approved.

We have patents and we utilize patent protection in the United States relating to certain processes and products. We cannot assure you that all of our existing patents would be found valid or enforceable or will continue to be valid or enforceable, or that any pending patent applications will be approved. Our competitors may in the future challenge the validity or enforceability of certain of our patents. The patents we own could be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by others and may not be of sufficient scope or strength to provide us with any meaningful protection or commercial advantage. Competitors may infringe our patents and we may not have adequate resources or there may be other reasons we do not enforce our patents. Our patents may not adequately cover a competitor’s products in such a way as to provide us with a competitive advantage. Furthermore, the future interpretation by courts of United States laws regarding the validity of patents could negatively affect the validity or enforceability of our current or future patents.

Our efforts to protect our unpatented proprietary technology may not be successful.

We rely on unpatented proprietary technology. It is possible that others will independently develop the same or similar technology or otherwise obtain access to our unpatented technology. To protect our trade secrets and other proprietary information, we require employees, consultants, advisors and other collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. We cannot assure you that these agreements are fully enforceable or will provide meaningful protection for our trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use, misappropriation or disclosure of such trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information. Furthermore, we may not have adequate resources to enforce these agreements in a meaningful way. If we are unable to maintain the proprietary nature of our technologies or enforce the agreements we use to protect those technologies, it could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We may not be able to establish or maintain our trademarks.

We rely on our trademarks, trade names, trade dress, copyrights and brand names to distinguish our products from the products of our competitors. We have registered or applied to register many of these trademarks. Our trademarks may not remain valid or enforceable. We may not be able to build and maintain goodwill in our trademarks or other intellectual property. Third parties may oppose our trademark applications or challenge our use of the trademarks. In the event that our trademarks are successfully challenged, we could be forced to rebrand our products, which could result in loss of brand recognition and could require us to devote resources towards advertising and marketing new brands. Further, our competitors may infringe our trademarks or other intellectual property and we may not have adequate resources or there may be other reasons we do not enforce our trademarks or other types of intellectual property.

We may not be able to adequately protect our foreign intellectual property rights.

Because of the differences in foreign patent, trademark, trade dress, copyright and other laws concerning proprietary rights, our intellectual property frequently does not receive the same degree of protection in foreign countries as it would in the United States. Our failure to possess, obtain or maintain adequate protection of our intellectual property rights for any reason could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The intellectual property rights of others may limit our ability to make and sell our products.

The gaming industry is characterized by the rapid development of new technology which requires us to continuously introduce new products using these technologies and innovations, as well as to expand into new markets that may be created. Therefore, our success depends in part on our ability to continually adapt our products and systems to incorporate new technologies and to expand into markets that may be created by new technologies. However, to the extent technologies are protected by the intellectual property rights of others, including our competitors, we may be prevented from introducing products based on these technologies or expanding into markets created by these technologies. If the intellectual property rights of others prevent us from taking advantage of innovative technologies, our financial condition, operating results or prospects may be harmed.

We have many competitors in both the United States and foreign countries, some of which have substantially greater resources and have made substantial investments in competing technologies. Some competitors have applied for and obtained and may in the future apply for and obtain, patents that may prevent, limit or otherwise interfere with our ability to make and sell our products. Any royalty, licensing or settlement agreements, if required, may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.

Significant litigation regarding intellectual property rights exists in our industry.

There is a significant amount of litigation that occurs in the gaming and technology industry generally. A successful challenge to or invalidation of one of our patents or trademarks, a successful claim of infringement by a third party against us, our products, or one of our licensees in connection with the use of our technology, or an unsuccessful claim of infringement made by us against a third party or its products, could adversely affect our business or cause us financial harm. Any such litigation – whether with or without merit – could:

The gaming industry is highly regulated and we must adhere to various regulations and maintain applicable licenses to continue our operations. Failure to abide by regulations or maintain applicable licenses could be disruptive to our business and could adversely affect our operations.

We and our products are subject to extensive regulation under federal, state, local and foreign laws, rules and regulations of the jurisdictions in which we do business and our products are used. Violations of laws in one jurisdiction could result in disciplinary action in other jurisdictions. Licenses, approvals or findings of suitability may be revoked, suspended or conditioned. In sum, we may not be able to obtain or maintain all necessary registrations, licenses, permits or approvals. The licensing process may result in delays or adversely affect our operations and our ability to maintain key personnel, and our efforts to comply with any new licensing regulations will increase our costs.

We may be unable to obtain licenses in new jurisdictions where our customers operate.

We will become subject to regulation in any jurisdiction where our customers operate in the future. To expand into any such jurisdiction we may need to be licensed, or obtain approvals of our products or services. If we do not receive, or receive a revocation of a license in a particular jurisdiction for our products, we would not be able to sell or place our products in that jurisdiction. Any such outcome could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and any growth plans for our business.

Legislative and regulatory changes could negatively affect our business and the business of our customers.

Legislative and regulatory changes may affect demand for or place limitations on the placement of our products. Such changes could affect us in a variety of ways. Legislation or regulation may introduce limitations on our products or opportunities for the use of our products and could foster competitive products or solutions at our or our customers’ expense. Our business will likely also suffer if our products became obsolete due to changes in laws or the regulatory framework.

Legislative or regulatory changes negatively impacting the gaming industry as a whole or our customers in particular could also decrease the demand for our products. Opposition to gaming could result in restrictions or even prohibitions of gaming operations in any jurisdiction or could result in increased taxes on gaming revenues. Tax matters, including changes in state, federal or other tax legislation or assessments by tax authorities could have a negative impact on our business. A reduction in growth of the gaming industry or in the number of gaming jurisdictions or delays in the opening of new or expanded casinos could reduce demand for our products. Changes in current or future laws or regulations or future judicial intervention in any particular jurisdiction may have a material adverse effect on our existing and proposed foreign and domestic operations. Any such adverse change in the legislative or regulatory environment could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our growth and ability to access capital markets are subject to a number of economic risks.

Financial markets worldwide can experience disruption, including, among other things, diminished liquidity and credit availability, rating downgrades of certain investments and declining valuations. Financial market conditions affect our business in a number of ways. For example, the tightening of credit in financial markets adversely affects the ability of our customers to obtain financing for purchases and operations and could result in a decrease in or cancellation of lease and sale orders for our products and services. In addition, poor financial market conditions could also affect our ability to raise funds in the capital and lending markets.

Risks that impact our customers may impact us.

If fewer players visit our customers’ facilities, if such players have less disposable income to spend at our customers’ facilities or if our customers are unable to devote resources to purchasing and leasing our products, there could be an adverse effect on our business. Such risks that affect our customers include, but are not limited to:

We have agreements with casinos in Native American and foreign jurisdictions, which may subject us to sovereign immunity risks.

We may have a difficult time enforcing our contracts with Central America, South America, the Caribbean and Native American tribes and the casinos they operate. These customers may enjoy significant immunity or impracticality from suit. For instance, in order to sue a Native American tribe (or an agency or instrumentality of a Native American tribe), the Native American tribe must have effectively waived its sovereign immunity with respect to the matter in dispute. While we always seek the waivers of immunity initially, they may not always become a part of our final contracts with Native American tribes. Without a waiver, limited or otherwise, of the tribe’s sovereign immunity, our ordinary rights and remedies (such as our right to enter Native American lands to retrieve our property in the event of a breach of contract by the tribal party to that contract, or our right to enforce any outside judgment against such tribal party) will not likely be enforceable.

We compete in a single industry and our business may suffer if our products become obsolete or demand for them decreases, including without limitation, as a result of the downturn in the gaming industry.

We derive substantially all of our revenues from leasing, licensing, selling and other financing arrangements of products for the gaming industry. Consistent demand for and satisfaction with our products by our customers is critical to our financial condition and future success. Problems, issues, defects or dissatisfaction with our products could cause us to lose customers or revenues from leases with minimal notices. Additionally, our success depends on our ability to keep pace with technological advances in our industry and to adapt and improve our products in response to evolving customer needs and industry trends. If demand for our products weakens due to lack of market acceptance, technological change, increased competition, regulatory changes, or other factors, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Any disruption in our manufacturing processes, any significant increase in manufacturing costs or any inability to manufacture our products to meet demand could adversely affect our business and operating results.

We manufacture our software and many related products ourselves. Should any of these manufacturing processes be disrupted we may be unable to timely remedy such disruption. In such a case, we may be unable to produce a sufficient quantity of our products to meet the demand of our customers. In addition, manufacturing costs may increase significantly and we may not be able to successfully recover these cost increases with increased pricing to our customers. Either case could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We operate in a very competitive business environment and if we do not adapt our approach and our products to meet this competitive environment, our business, results of operations or financial condition could be adversely impacted.

There is intense competition in the gaming management and gaming products industry which is characterized by dynamic customer demand and rapid technological advances. Today, there are many systems providers in the U.S. and abroad offering casinos and gaming operators “total solution” casino management and table games management systems. As a result, we must continually adapt our approach and our products to meet this demand and match technological advances and if we cannot do so, our business results of operations or financial condition may be adversely impacted. Conversely, the development of new competitive products or the enhancement of existing competitive products in any market in which we operate could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition. If we are unable to remain dynamic in the face of changes in the market, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We are dependent on the success of our customers and their decisions to upgrade or replace their current casino management systems.

Our success depends on our customers leasing or buying our products to expand their existing operations, replace existing gaming management products or equip a new casino. Any slowdown in the replacement cycle on the part of our customers may negatively impact our operations.

If our products contain defects, our reputation could be harmed and our operating results and financial results could be adversely affected.

Some of our products and our anticipated future products are complex and may contain defects that we do not detect. The occurrence of defects or malfunctions in one or more of our products could result in financial losses for our customers and in turn the termination of leases, cancellation of orders, product returns and diversion of our resources, and could additionally result in lost revenues, civil damages and regulatory penalties, as well as possible rescission of product approvals. Any of these occurrences could also result in the loss of or delay in market acceptance of our products and loss of placements.

We may not be able to attract, retain, or motivate the management or employees necessary to remain competitive in our industry.

The competition for qualified personnel in the gaming industry is intense. Our future success depends on the retention and continued contributions of our key management, finance, marketing, development, technical and staff personnel, many of whom would be difficult or impossible to replace. Our success is also tied to our ability to recruit additional key personnel in the future. We may not be able to retain our current personnel or recruit any additional key personnel required. The loss of services of any of our personnel or our inability to recruit additional necessary key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We are highly dependent on the services provided by certain executives and key personnel.

Our success depends in a significant part upon the continued service of certain senior management, and other key personnel. In particular, we are materially dependent upon the services of Chad Hoehne, the Company’s Chief Technology Officer. If Mr. Hoehne should no longer serve the Company in his present capacity it would likely have a materially adverse impact on our business, financial condition and operations. Presently, the Company does not have an employment agreement with Mr. Hoehne, though the Company has secured “key person” term life insurance covering the life of Mr. Hoehne.

Our common stock trades only in an illiquid trading market.

Trading of our common stock is conducted on the over-the-counter markets—specifically on the OTCQB, a middle-tier quotation marketplace administered by OTC Markets (formerly known as The Pink Sheets). This generally has an adverse effect on the liquidity of our common stock, not only in terms of the number of shares that can be bought and sold at a given price, but also through delays in the timing of transactions and reduction in security analysts’ and the media’s coverage of our Company and its common stock. This may result in lower prices for our common stock than might otherwise be obtained and could also result in a larger spread between the bid and asked prices for our common stock.

There is currently little trading volume in our common stock, which may make it difficult to sell shares of our common stock.

In general, there has been very little trading activity in our common stock. The relatively small trading volume will likely make it difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares as and when they choose. Furthermore, small trading volumes generally depress market prices. As a result, you may not always be able to resell shares of our common stock publicly at the time and prices that you feel are fair or appropriate.

Our financial results could be impacted by foreign currency risks

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from some of its foreign customers in Colombia, transacted in Colombia Pesos. In addition, exchange rate fluctuations may cause our international results to fluctuate when translated into U.S. dollars. These risks may change over time as business practices evolve and could have an impact on the Company’s financial results in the future. The Company monitors its risk associated with the volatility of certain foreign currencies against U.S. dollars.

We are dependent on a contractor in Colombia

The Company relies on a contractor to promote, support and keep accounting records for its customers in Colombia. The Company provides secondary support to the Colombian contractor, as needed, and receives regular reporting of the sales in the territory. The Company monitors the risk and has the option to terminate the contractor agreement every twelve to eighteen months. The loss of this contract relationship could negatively affect the Company’s business in Colombia.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

Not applicable.

Item 2. Properties.

The Company has a lease on corporate office space in Minnetonka, Minnesota and took possession of the leased space in January 2011. The lease expires on June 30, 2016, and includes over 4,400 square feet of office and warehouse space. The monthly rent payment is approximately $2,727 with periodic escalators to approximately $3,103 per month, excluding operating expenses. The Company believes this space is adequate for its current business needs.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data.

Not applicable.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and related notes that appear elsewhere in this filing.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some of the statements made in this report are “forward-looking statements,” as that term is defined under Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations and projections about future events. Whenever used in this report, the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect” and similar expressions, or the negative of such words and expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such words or expressions. The forward-looking statements in this report are primarily located in the material set forth under the headings “Description of Business,” “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” but are found in other parts of this report as well. These forward-looking statements generally relate to our plans, objectives and expectations for future operations and are based upon management’s current estimates and projections of future results or trends. Although we believe that our plans and objectives reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we may not achieve these plans or objectives. You should read this report completely and with the understanding that actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We will not update forward-looking statements even though our situation may change in the future.

Some, but not all, of the factors that could cause actual results to differ from those implied by the forward-looking statements in this report are more fully described in the “Risk Factors” section of this report.

Industry data and other statistical information used in this report are based on independent publications, government publications, reports by market research firms or other published independent sources. Some data are also based on our good faith estimates, derived from our review of internal surveys and the independent sources listed above. Although we believe these sources are reliable, we have not independently verified the information.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s cash position at December 31, 2015 was $289,105, a decrease of $919,096 from $1,208,201 at December 31, 2014. Management believes that the Company has adequate cash to meet its obligations and continue operations for both existing customer contracts and ongoing product development for at least the next 12 months. The Company presently has no bank line of credit or other financing arrangements for general corporate use. As a result, its primary sources of liquidity are cash, receivables and potentially other current assets. Management is not aware of any trends or any known demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in the registrant’s liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.

Net cash flows used in operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2015 were $705,153 compared with net cash flows provided by operating activities of $221,256 for the same period in 2014. This change of $926,409 was caused primarily by the net loss from operations in 2015 of $399,271 compared to a net income during 2014 of $33,290 and an increase in accounts receivable in 2015, offset by an increase in deferred revenue compared to 2014, that is scheduled to be recognized as revenue in future periods.

Net cash used in investing activities was $20,540 during the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $0 for the same period in 2014. This change of $20,540 was caused primarily by the purchase of a vehicle.

Net cash used in financing activities was $193,403 during the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $51,343 for the same period in 2014. This change of $142,060 was caused primarily by the repurchase of $192,134 of common stock in 2015 compared to $43,163 in 2014.

On December 31, 2015, total stockholders’ equity was $2,641,429 compared to $3,201,664 in 2014, which is a decrease of $560,235 or 17.5%; resulting from a net loss from operations and the aforementioned repurchase of stock.

The Company’s core operations are not capital intensive. The basic product of the Company is computer software developed by its employees. Most manufacturing is done after the Company receives an order, so there is not a material product inventory held by the Company.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2015 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014

The most significant events that affected the 2015 results of operations were the Company’s (1) installation of eighteen casino management systems, and one table games system at nineteen operating entities; (2) expansion into the California, Iowa, Oklahoma, and Colombia markets.

During 2015, the Company delivered product with a value exceeding $3,400,000 for new contracts at the respective contract dates. However, nearly $2,000,000 of the revenue for these system sales was deferred, and will be recognized in future periods, since a substantial amount is not due within 12 months. As a result, those contracts, along with the related maintenance, will add more than $100,000 each month to the existing recurring revenue which, as of December 31^st, was at the highest point in company history, and nearly enough to fully sustain, by itself, all related cost of goods sold and operating expenses of the Company.

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company has signed new contracts and delivered product of approximately $864,000 at the time of this report. Most of the revenue for the delivered product will be recognized in future periods, since a substantial amount is not due within 12 months, and will build on the current recurring monthly revenues of the Company. In addition, the Company has signed new contracts with an approximate product value of $1,738,000 during the first quarter, for product delivery scheduled for the second quarter of 2016. These contracts are a combination of that which will be recognized immediately, while some will defer revenues to future quarters.

The Company also began the licensing process in the states of Colorado and Nevada in 2015. This attainment of the gaming license in each state will allow the Company to pursue sales to commercial casinos in each state, and is expected to increase revenues and net income for the Company in future years. The Company incurred some costs in 2015 related to these licenses, with additional expenses in the first quarter of 2016.

Inflation for the previous two years ended December 31, 2015 has been negligible, having no material effect on the Company’s operations. Increased inflation may put the Company’s cash holdings at risk for a loss of real value. As a result, the Company expects to periodically evaluate inflation pressure and take appropriate steps to place its available cash and cash equivalents into conservative and less inflation-sensitive investments.

A breakout of revenue by type is as follows:

Revenues increased from $3,478,580 in 2014 to $3,766,041 in 2015. The increase of $287,461 was due to larger installations in 2015 compared to 2014. System sales revenues increased from $1,787,384 in 2014 to $2,046,599 in 2015, a 14.5% increase of $259,215, due to larger system installations in 2015 compared to 2014. Ongoing maintenance revenue increased from $1,339,829 in 2014 to $1,668,024 in 2015, a 24.5% increase of $328,195, due to our high customer retention rate along with new accounts added during 2015. Other sales, which includes Cash IO kiosk sales, promotional kiosk software sales, and rental sales has decreased from $351,367 in 2014 to $31,418 in 2015, a 91.0% decrease of $319,949 due to no Cash IO kiosk sales and no rental sales to new customers.

During 2015, the Company delivered eighteen systems domestically and in South America. Most of the revenue for the installations was deferred, and will be recognized in future periods, since a substantial amount is not due within 12 months. During 2014, the Company delivered five systems.

Cost of sales increased to $1,082,724 in 2015 from $635,674 in 2014. The increase of $447,050 was primarily due to higher revenues in 2015 compared to 2014 and subcontracted labor for installations in Colombia.

A breakout of cost of sales by type is as follows:

The gross margin in 2015 was $2,683,317 or 71.3% of sales compared with $2,842,906 or 81.7% of sales in 2014. The decrease of gross margin was primarily due to the mix of hardware sold with the systems, and pursuing sales in foreign markets and the related foreign currency exchange rates, which the Company expects to continue in future quarters.

Deferred revenues – short-term is relatively consistent at $37,810 in 2015 from $38,975 in 2014. The balance represents down payments received for system installations on order at year-end and annual payments of maintenance. The deferred revenue is non-refundable and is recognized as revenue when the system installations are completed or as invoices are due. As of December 31, 2015, the Company was in the process of installing a small amount of software and hardware in Colombia.

Deferred revenues – long-term increased to $2,890,467 in 2015 from $1,090,746 in 2014. The balance represents systems which have been installed under contracts that have been signed and invoiced, but revenue will be recognized and cash collected monthly over multiple years. The increase of $1,799,721 in 2015 represents multiple contracts that were signed and installed during the year combined with the contracts installed in 2014 which had deferred revenue remaining as of December 31, 2015.

Total operating expenses increased to $3,393,688 in 2015 from $2,865,759 in 2014. This 18.4% increase of $527,929 was primarily due to additional contractor fees related to the expansion in Colombia, offset by bad debt recovery during 2014.

Interest / Other income decreased in 2015 to a net amount of $53,586 from $63,155 in 2014; the 15.2% decrease of $9,569 is due to a lower amount of long-term financed contracts for the first half of 2015 compared to 2014.

The provision for income tax benefit was $274,000 in 2015, for an effective rate of (40.7%), compared to a provision for income tax expense of $7,012 for an effective rate of 17.4% in 2014. The change in rates is primarily due to the 2013 rate that was carried forward to offset tax profits for 2014, and caused the 2014 tax rate to be lower than normal.

The net loss for 2015 was $399,271 compared to a net income of $33,290 for 2014, which is a decrease of $432,561. The Company does not expect the trend of losses from 2015 to continue in 2016.

The basic and diluted loss per share in 2015 was $0.09 compared to earnings per share of $0.01 in 2014.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The Company’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon its financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates these estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, inventory valuation, intangible assets, and income taxes. The Company bases these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The estimates and judgments that the Company believes have the most effect on its reported financial position and results of operations are as follows:

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives revenues from the sales of systems, licenses and maintenance fees, services, and other sales.

System Sales and Licenses

Revenue from systems that have been demonstrated to meet customer specifications during installation is recognized when evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been delivered, title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. System sales, which are accounted for as multiple-element arrangements, include multiple products and/or services. For multiple-element arrangements, the Company allocates the revenue to each element based on the hierarchy of estimated selling price for the deliverables. The selling price for each deliverable will be based on vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE), Third Party Evidence (“TPE”) if VSOE is not available, or estimated selling price if neither VSOE or TPE is available. The Company recognizes the associated revenue when all revenue recognition criteria have been met for each element. If there are contracts the Company does not have VSOE of all elements, the Company would follow the selling price hierarchy to allocate arrangement consideration.

The Company does offer its customers contracts with extended payment terms.  The Company must evaluate if any extended payment terms in the contract is an indicator of the revenue not being fixed or determinable.  Provided all other revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied, the Company recognizes the revenue if payment of a significant portion of the systems sales is due within 12 months of the delivery of the product.  The Company also analyzes its standard business practice of using long-term contracts and the history of collecting on extended payment term contracts without making concessions for determining if revenue should be recognized.  Revenue and associated set-up costs are deferred if contract terms exceed historical collection results or if a substantial portion of the contract is not due within 12 months after delivery of the product.  The Company analyzes each contract for proper revenue recognition based on that contracts facts and circumstances.  Interest is recorded upon receipt to “other income” on the statements of operations.

Maintenance revenue

Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period. The VSOE for maintenance is based upon the renewal rate for contracted services.

Service revenue

Service revenue is recognized after the services are performed and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The multiple element price for service revenue is established based upon the selling price determined by management having the relative authority when the element is not yet sold separately for the services.

Rental revenue

The Company may offer customers a rental contract.  Revenues are billed monthly on a per-game per-day basis. There is an option to purchase the system after the rental contract expires at a pre-determined residual value.

Deferred System Sales Costs

Deferred system sales costs consist of installed system costs incurred on participation-based contracts. These costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract which is generally 18-48 months beginning when revenues are generated. At the end of the contract period, the customer will usually receive title to the system.

Accounts Receivable / Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount. Accounts receivable include regular customer receivables and amounts from financed contracts coming due within 12 months. Amounts from financed contracts due beyond 12 months are recorded as "Long-term accounts receivable – financed contracts."  Interest is recorded upon receipt to other income on the statements of operations. The Company evaluates its allowance based on historical experience. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded when the Company believes the amounts may not be collected. Management believes that receivables, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, are fully collectible. While the ultimate result may differ, management believes that any write-off not allowed for will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position. 

Inventory

Inventory, consisting of finished goods, is stated at the lower of cost or market. The average cost method (which approximates first in, first out method) is used to value inventory. Inventory is reviewed annually for the lower of cost or market and obsolescence. Any material cost found to be above market value or considered obsolete is written down accordingly. The Company had no obsolescence reserve at December 31, 2015 and 2014.

Long-lived Assets

The Company periodically assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets by reviewing for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future un-discounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for using the liability method of accounting. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Company

Table Trac, Inc. (the Company) was formed under the laws of the State of Nevada in June 1995. The Company has its offices in Minnetonka, Minnesota. The Company has developed and patented a proprietary information and management system that automates and monitors the operations of casino games.

The Company provides system sales and technical support to casinos. System sales include installation, custom casino system configuration and training. In addition, license and technical support are provided under an annual license and service contract.

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 and 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. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates these estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, valuation of inventory, intangible assets, and deferred income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentrations of Risk

Cash Deposits in Excess of Federally Insured Limits

The Company maintains its cash balances at two financial institutions. Accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company had approximately $0 and $900,000 of uninsured cash balances at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Major Customers

The following table summarizes significant customer information for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives revenues from the sales of systems, licenses and maintenance fees, and services.

System Sales and Licenses

Revenue from systems that have been demonstrated to meet customer specifications during installation is recognized when evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been delivered, title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. System sales, which are accounted for as multiple-element arrangements, include multiple products and/or services. For multiple-element arrangements, the Company allocates the revenue to each element based on the hierarchy of estimated selling price for the deliverables. The selling price for each deliverable will be based on vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE), Third Party Evidence (“TPE”) if VSOE is not available, or estimated selling price if neither VSOE or TPE is available. The Company recognizes the associated revenue when all revenue recognition criteria have been met for each element. If there are contracts the Company does not have VSOE of all elements, the Company would follow the selling price hierarchy to allocate arrangement consideration.

The Company does offer its customers contracts with extended payment terms.  The Company must evaluate if any extended payment terms in the contract is an indicator of the revenue not being fixed or determinable.  Provided all other revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied, the Company recognizes the revenue if payment of a significant portion of the systems sales is due within 12 months of the delivery of the product.  The Company also analyzes its standard business practice of using long-term contracts and the history of collecting on extended payment term contracts without making concessions for determining if revenue should be recognized.  Revenue and associated set-up costs are deferred if contract terms exceed historical collection results or if a substantial portion of the contract is not due within 12 months after delivery of the product.  The Company analyzes each contract for proper revenue recognition based on that contract’s facts and circumstances.  Interest is recorded upon receipt to “other income” on the statements of operations. 

Maintenance revenue

Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period. The VSOE for maintenance is based upon the renewal rate for contracted services.

Service revenue

Service revenue is recognized after the services are performed and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The VSOE for service revenue is established based upon the selling prices for the services.

Rental revenue

The Company offers certain new customers a rental contract.  Revenues are billed monthly based on a per-game per-day basis.  There is an option to purchase the system after the rental agreement at a pre-determined residual value.

Deferred System Sales Costs

Deferred system sales costs consist of installed system costs incurred on participation-based contracts. These costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract which is generally 18-48 months beginning when revenues are generated. At the end of the contract period, the customer will typically receive title to the system. These costs are included in other long-term assets on the balance sheet.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. Fair value estimates are at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. The Company considers the carrying values of its financial instruments to approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company held no cash equivalents at December 31, 2015 or 2014.

Accounts Receivable / Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount. Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value, which includes foreign currency translation as of each balance sheet date. Accounts receivable include unsecured regular customer receivables and unsecured amounts from financed contracts coming due within 12 months. Amounts from financed contracts due beyond 12 months are recorded as "Long-term accounts receivable – financed contracts."  Interest is recorded upon receipt to other income on the statements of operations. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded when the Company believes the amounts may not be collected. Management believes that receivables, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, are fully collectible. Accounts receivable are written off when management determines collection is no longer likely. While the ultimate result may differ, management believes that any write-off not allowed for will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position. Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value, which includes foreign currency translation into U.S. Dollars, as of each balance sheet date. 

Inventory

Inventory, consisting of finished goods, is stated at the lower of cost or market. The average cost method (which appropriates the first in, first out method) is used to value inventory. Inventory is reviewed annually for the lower of cost or market and obsolescence. Any material cost found to be above market value or considered obsolete is written down accordingly. The Company had no obsolescence reserve at December 31, 2015 and 2014.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from two to five years. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred; major renewals and improvements are capitalized. As items of property or equipment are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in operating income.

Long-lived Assets

The Company periodically assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets by reviewing for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for using the liability method of accounting. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) guidance. This guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than not (a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized) to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company believes its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained upon examination and, accordingly, no reserves, or related accruals for interest and penalties have been recorded at December 31, 2015 and 2014. In accordance with the guidance, the Company has adopted a policy under which, if required to be recognized in the future, interest and penalties related to the underpayment of income taxes will be classified in income taxes in the statements of operations. The Company has three open years of tax returns subject to examination starting with 2012.

Research and Development

Expenditures for research and product development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses were $22,057 and $23,241 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the statements of operations.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company recognizes the cost of stock-based compensation plans and awards in operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards. The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made to employees and directors. The compensation expense for the Company’s stock-based payments is based on estimated fair values at the time of the grant.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option pricing model. These option pricing models involve a number of assumptions, including the expected lives of stock options, the volatility of the public market price for the Company’s common stock and interest rates. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest.

There were no stock options issued during 2015 and 2014. Grants under the stock option plan expired on May 16, 2011.

Stock-based compensation expense related to options was $0 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. The Company estimates the amount of future stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding options to be $0.

Foreign Currency Transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Company at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. Foreign currency differences arising on retranslation are recognized in profit or loss.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the weighted average shares outstanding are increased to include additional shares from the assumed exercise of stock options or warrants, if dilutive. The number of additional shares is calculated by assuming that outstanding stock options or warrants were exercised and that the proceeds from the exercise were used to acquire shares of common stock at the average market price during the reporting period. (See Note 8)

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, and amended in July 2015, FASB issued guidance creating Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Section 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The new section will replace Section 605, “Revenue Recognition” and creates modifications to various other revenue accounting standards for specialized transactions and industries. The section is intended to conform revenue accounting principles to a concurrently issued International Financial Reporting Standards with previously differing treatment between United States practice and those of much of the rest of the world, as well as, to enhance disclosures related to disaggregated revenue information. The updated guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company will adopt the new provisions of this accounting standard at the beginning of 2018. The Company will further study the implications of this statement in order to evaluate the expected impact on its financial statements.

In February 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which provides guidance for accounting for leases. The new guidance requires companies to recognize the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leased assets, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. The accounting guidance for lessors is largely unchanged. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. It is to be adopted using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company’s financial statements and anticipates the new guidance will significantly impact its financial statements given the Company has a significant number of leases.

In July 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, which amended Inventory (Topic 330) Related to Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory of the Accounting Standards Codification. The amended guidance applies to all inventory except that which is measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. Inventory measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost is included in the new amendments. Inventory within the scope of the new guidance should be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The amendments will take effect for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The new guidance should be applied prospectively, and earlier application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 2. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

The allowance for financed and trade receivable represents management’s estimate of probable losses in our trade and financed receivables as of the date of the financial statements. The allowance provides for probable losses that have been identified with specific customer relationships and for probable losses believed to be inherent of the trade and financed receivables, but that have not been specifically identified.

Included in accounts receivable - Financed contracts at December 31, 2015 and 2014 is $3,584,684 and $1,594,673, respectively, with an offset to deferred revenues on the balance sheet of $2,890,467 and $1,090,746 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

A roll-forward of the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended is as follows:

The allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2015 is $185,397 for the trade receivables and $0 for the financed contracts. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2014 is $101,079 for the trade receivables and $0 for the financed contracts.

NOTE 3. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment consists of the following at: 

Depreciation expense totaled $8,725 and $13,573 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

NOTE 4. LONG-TERM DEBT

The Company entered into a $34,580 term note agreement in September 2015. The note is payable in monthly installments of $677 including interest at 5.89%. The note was secured by the vehicle, and expires in September 2020. The outstanding balance of the note was $33,311 at December 31, 2015. Estimated annual maturities of debt are as follows:

NOTE 5. OPERATING LEASES

The Company has a lease on corporate office space in Minnetonka, Minnesota, which expires on June 30, 2016. This lease has rent escalations from $2,727 to $3,103 per month, excluding operating expenses. Future minimum lease payments are as follows:

Rent expense was $31,556 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

NOTE 6. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock

Options may be exercisable for a period of up to five years from the date of grant. The Company has reserved 1,000,000 shares of its common stock for potential issuance under this plan.

The following table summarizes the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31:

The federal net operating loss carryforward at December 31, 2015 is approximately $777,000 and the various state net operating loss carryforwards is approximately $682,000 which expires between 2025 and 2035 if not used. An allowance for net operating loss carryforward is recorded when the Company believes the amount may not be collected or fully utilized. Management believes the net operating loss carryforward, net of the allowance, is fully collectible or fully utilized.

NOTE 8. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share is computed under two different methods, basic and diluted, and is presented for all periods in which statements of operations are presented. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share for years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

In 2014, stock options outstanding of 10,000 were not included in the calculation as the stock exercise price is greater than the fair market price.

NOTE 10. FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE RISK

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from some of its foreign customers in Colombia, transacted in Colombia Pesos. As a result, exchange rate fluctuations may cause our international results to fluctuate when translated into U.S. dollars. These risks may change over time as business practices evolve and could have an impact on the Company’s financial results in the future due to the long term nature of our accounts receivable in Colombia which totaled approximately $443,000 at December 31, 2015. The Company monitors its risk associated with the volatility of certain foreign currencies against U.S. dollars. The Company recorded a realized loss on foreign currency of approximately $22,000 in 2015.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None

Item 9A. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, The Company contracts with an independent firm to review and test its internal controls. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

As of December 31, 2015, the Company’s management carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, it was concluded the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2015 as a result of the material weakness below.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. The Company has designed internal controls to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company assesses the effectiveness of internal controls based on the criteria set forth in the 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework developed by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of internal control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In connection with the assessment described above, management identified the following control deficiency that represents a material weakness at December 31, 2015.  The Company entered into an agreement with a contractor in Colombia to transact business in that country during 2015.  As that relationship evolved, management became aware that some controls over the period end financial reporting were missing.  Management has taken steps to implement new controls in order to remediate this weakness, but those controls were not in place as of December 31, 2015. 

Item 9B. Other Information.
