Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The Company uses the accrual method of accounting and all amounts are denominated in United States dollars. The accounts for OTI, which were maintained in Singapore dollars, have been converted from Singapore dollars to United States dollars at historical exchange rates.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. “Due to affiliates” represents amounts due to entities that own equity or indebtedness of the Company or a subsidiary but that are not part of the consolidated company presented herein.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from products when the goods are shipped pursuant to a customer’s purchase order. Revenue from royalties is recorded in the period in which the sales of the underlying products are made. Revenue from license fees is recognized in the period in which they are due and payable.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Accounting estimates and assumptions are those that management considers to be the most critical to an understanding of the consolidated financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgments and uncertainties. All of these estimates reflect management’s judgment about current economic and market conditions and their effects based on information available as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. If such conditions persist longer or deteriorate further than expected, it is reasonably possible that the judgments and estimates could change, which may result in future impairments of assets, among other effects.

Significant estimates include the carrying value of intangible assets and the value of equity instruments, including convertible notes, stock options, warrants, and membership units issued in lieu of cash.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash held in bank demand deposits. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are accounted for at fair value, do not bear interest, and are short-term in nature. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability to collect on accounts receivable. Based on management’s assessment, the Company provides for estimated uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to the valuation allowance. Balances that remain outstanding after the Company has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. The Company does not require collateral.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Certain balance sheet items that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily accounts receivable. Concentrations of credit risk with accounts receivable are generally mitigated by the size of the Company’s customers. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon the expected collectability of all accounts receivable.

Inventory

Inventory

Inventory is carried at the lower of cost or market. A physical inventory count is taken at the end of each calendar quarter and the accounting records are adjusted to match the physical inventory.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

Property, equipment, computer hardware and software, and leasehold improvements are carried at historical cost. Expenditures are capitalized only if the cost of the individual asset exceeds $1,200 and the asset is expected to have a business use for greater than 12 months.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the property acquired. Equipment and furniture is depreciated over 60 months. Computer software and hardware is depreciated over 36 months. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the lease or the life of the improvement, whichever is shorter.

 

Inter-company transfers of assets are recorded at depreciated cost, with no change in estimated life or monthly depreciation.

Research and Development

Research and Development

The Company expenses all costs associated with the development of applications for the Company’s technology as the costs are incurred.

Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets

Amortization is computed based on the straight line method over the life of the patent, which is 180 months beginning with the month when the patent is granted. The amortization is based on the historical cost of each individual patent. Costs incurred to renew or extend the terms of patents are expensed as incurred.

The Company annually assesses whether the carrying value of its intangible assets exceeds their fair value and records an impairment loss equal to any excess.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

OTI and OAPS are not consolidated into the Company for purposes of United States tax filings and computations. OTLLC, OTD and OTLIC are limited liability companies and, as such, do not pay federal or state income taxes. Accordingly, no taxes have been accrued on the Company’s records for periods prior to the Merger.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company utilizes equity based awards as a form of compensation for employees, consultants, officers and directors. The Company records compensation expense for all awards granted. After having assessed alternative valuation models and amortization methods, the Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model and straight-line amortization of compensation expense over the requisite service period for each grant. The Company will reconsider use of this model if additional information becomes available in the future that indicates another model would be more appropriate or if grants issued in future periods have characteristics that cannot be reasonably estimated using this model.

Leases

Leases

The Company leases office facilities under a non-cancelable operating lease. The Company recognizes rent on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
