Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and therefore do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP and the SEC for annual financial statements. The Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments that management believes are necessary for the fair presentation of their financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss and cash flows for the periods presented. The information at December 31, 2012 in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet included in this quarterly report was derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC on May 1, 2013. The Company's 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K is referred to in this quarterly report as the “2012 Annual Report.” This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the 2012 Annual Report.

 

Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Tabular information, other than share and per share data, is presented in thousands of dollars. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts for consistency with the current period presentation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could affect the results of operations reported in future periods.

 

The Company's significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2012 Annual Report. There have been no significant changes to those policies.

 

 

Segment Reporting

 

We operate in one business segment, the manufacturing, distribution and delivery of hygiene and sanitizing solutions and services. We define business segments as components of an organization for which discrete financial information is available and operating results are evaluated on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in order to assess performance and allocate resources. Our CODM is the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. Characteristics of our organization which were relied upon in making this determination include the similar nature of the products and services we sell, the functional alignment of our organizational structure, and the reports that are regularly reviewed by the CODM for the purpose of assessing performance and allocating resources. Previously we operated in two segments. See Note 3, “Discontinued Operations, Dispositions and Acquisitions.”

 

Restricted cash

 

Restricted cash at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 consists of amounts held in a collateral account to secure certain letters of credit related to workers’ compensation liabilities, a note payable, facility lease agreements and purchase card balances.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance and disclosure requirements for reporting amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The guidance requires that an entity provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under GAAP. The guidance became effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2012. This standard was adopted in the first quarter of 2013.
