Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Members of Standard Waste Services, LLC (A Limited Liability Company):

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Standard Waste Services, LLC (A Limited Liability Company) (the Company) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related statements of income, changes in members’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Emphasis of Matter - Leases

 

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, as of January 1, 2022, the Company adopted the new accounting guidance ASC Topic 842, Leases. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

The critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate. We did not identify any critical audit matters during the current period audit.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

This summary of significant accounting policies of Standard Waste Services, LLC (a Michigan Limited Liability Company) is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. The accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

Nature of Operations

 

Standard Waste Services, LLC (the “Company”) is located in Detroit, Michigan. The Company provides waste management services primarily to commercial and industrial customers. The Company’s customers are primarily located in Southeast Michigan.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. These estimates are based on management’s knowledge and experience. Accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash on hand and demand deposits in banks plus short-term investments that are readily convertible to cash as well as investments with original maturities of three months or less.

 

Account Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are recorded when billed or accrued and represent claims against third parties that will be settled in cash. The carrying value of the Company’s receivables, net of allowance for credit losses, represents their estimated net realizable value.

 

The allowance for credit losses is based on management’s assessment of collectability of assets pooled together with similar risk characteristics. The Company estimates its allowance for credit losses based on historical collection trends, the age of outstanding receivables, geographical location of the customer, existing economic conditions and reasonable forecasts. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that specific receivable balances may be impaired, further consideration is given to the collectability of those balances and the allowance is adjusted accordingly. Past-due receivable balances are written off when the Company’s internal collection efforts have been unsuccessful in collecting the amount due. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no allowance for credit losses established as management’s assessment of collectability of its accounts receivables did not identify any receivables as uncollectable.

 

The carrying value of accounts receivable for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 were $1,236,867, $1,001,761, and $886,516, respectively.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – Continued

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are carried at cost. Maintenance, repairs and renewals which neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably prolong its life are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation of equipment is provided on the straight-line method at the following rates:

 

SCHEDULE OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT USEFUL LIFE

    
Software   3 years
Computer and office equipment   10 years
Furniture and fixtures   10 years
Trucks and tractors   7 years
Equipment   7 - 15 years
Leasehold improvements   15 years

 

Management regularly reviews property and equipment for possible impairment. The review occurs annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Based on management’s assessment, there were no indicators of impairment of the Company’s property and equipment as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill is carried at the amount paid for a company’s assets in excess of the sum of their fair values. The Company periodically tests these assets for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the assets below their carrying amounts.

 

The Company may elect to perform a qualitative assessment that considers economic, industry, and Company-specific factors for all or selected assets of which goodwill has been assigned at purchase. If, after completing the assessment, it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the assessed asset(s) is less than its carrying value, the Company proceeds to a quantitative test. The Company may also elect to perform a quantitative test for any or all of its assets with goodwill assigned at purchase.

 

Quantitative testing requires a comparison of the fair value of each asset with assigned goodwill to its carrying value. The Company uses the discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of the asset(s) with assigned goodwill. The discounted cash flow method incorporates various assumptions, the most significant being projected sales growth rates, operating margins and cash flows, the terminal growth rate, and the weighted average cost of capital. If the carrying value of the assets(s) with assigned goodwill exceeds its fair value, the shortfall up to the carrying value of the goodwill represents the amount of goodwill impairment.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not record any impairment and there were no changes in the carrying value of goodwill, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – Continued

 

Right of Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes existing guidance for accounting for leases under Topic 840, Leases. The FASB also subsequently issued several ASUs, which amend and clarify Topic 842. The most significant change in the new leasing guidance is the requirement to recognize right-of-use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities for operating leases on the balance sheet. Similar to the previous lease guidance, the update retains a distinction between finance leases (similar to capital leases in Topic 840, Leases) and operating leases, with classification affecting pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2022 and utilized all of the available practical expedients.

 

The determination of whether an arrangement is a lease is made at the lease’s inception. Under ASC 842, a contract is (or contains) a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control is defined under the standard as having both the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset and the right to direct the use of the asset. Management only reassesses its determination if the terms and conditions of the contract are changed.

 

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses the implicit rate when it is readily determinable. Since the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, to determine the present value of lease payments, management uses the Company’s incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement. Operating lease ROU assets also include any lease payments made and excludes any lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option.

 

The Company has elected to apply the short-term lease exception to all leases with a term of one year or less. Several of the Company’s leases as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 are for periods of less than 12 months, or on a month-to-month basis; therefore, lease assets and liabilities described above are not recorded on the balance sheet.

 

The Company has made an accounting policy election to account for lease and non-lease components in its contracts as a single lease component for its operating and finance leases.

 

Revenue and Cost Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations are satisfied in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at the point in time once waste is disposed of at a landfill or transfer station. The Company then invoices its customers based upon pre-negotiated rates and billed to the customer once the performance obligations have been met. Invoices for services are normally due upon receipt. There are no significant financing agreements customers in relation to revenues generated and collected.

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – Continued

 

Revenue and Cost Recognition – Continued

 

The Company’s single-day contracts are invoiced by the Company at the time of the order and payment is required prior to delivery of the equipment used for hauling the waste. Based on the type of waste the customer needs disposed or hauled from the location, contract prices are negotiated in advance. If the customer requires more time than the agreed-upon contract stipulates, the Company invoices the customer on a daily basis until the customer no longer requires waste hauling by the Company.

 

The Company also provides waste hauling services to commercial customers which normally includes hauling away the waste and leaving equipment at the location for further use and future hauling and disposal. Invoices for these contracts are billed upon pickup and disposal of the waste at a landfill or transfer station. Invoice normally include disposal fees based on weight, type of waste to be disposed of, and fuel surcharges.

 

Cost of revenues earned includes direct contract costs, such as disposal fees, driver wages and related employer taxes, truck and equipment depreciation and maintenance expenses, and other costs such as customer property damages due to driver error.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company is not a taxpaying entity for federal income tax purposes, and thus no federal income tax expense has been recorded in these financial statements. Income from the Company is taxed to the Members in their respective tax returns. The Company accounts for tax positions in accordance with the Recognition and Initial Measurement Sections of the Income Taxes Topic of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification.

 

With few exceptions, the Company is subject to U.S. federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for the prior three years. Management has reviewed the LLC’s tax positions and determined there were no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

Advertising

 

Advertising costs are expensed as they are incurred. Advertising costs included in general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $6,129 and $9,188, respectively.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

 

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This amendment replaces the incurred methodology in current generally accepted accounting principles with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses on instruments within its scope, including trade receivables.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – Continued

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards – Continued

 

This update is intended to provide financial statement users with more decision useful information about the expected credit losses. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2023. The impact of the adoption was not considered material to the financial statements and primarily resulted in new and enhanced disclosures only.

 

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted new guidance under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 842, Leases. Under the new guidance, the Company recognizes right of use assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms greater than 12 months. Leases are now classified as either financial or operating leases, which dictates whether the expense is recognized based on effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Company adopted Topic 842 using the modified retrospective method. Accordingly, the new guidance was applied retrospectively to leases that existed as of January 1, 2022 (the date of initial application). The adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s equity, results of operations or cash flows.

 

The Company elected the following practical expedients and accounting policy elections:

 

1.Expired or existing contracts were not assessed to determine whether they are or contain leases upon adoption.

 

2.Previous classification of existing leases (operating or finance) was retained as of the date of adoption.

 

3.Initial direct costs were not reassessed upon adoption.

 

4.Hindsight is used in determining the lease term and in evaluating impairment of right of use assets.

 

NOTE 2 – CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

 

The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents balances at a financial institution located in Michigan. Accounts at this institution were insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000. The Company’s cash balances at December 31, 2023 and 2022 were fully insured.

Depreciation expense included in general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 amounted to $10,936 and $3,200, respectively.

 

NOTE 4 – LEASES

 

During March 2022, the Company entered into a lease agreement for its Detroit operations which commenced in August 2022 through July 2027. There is an exclusive right to purchase the premises through the original term of the lease at a fair value to be mutually agreed upon. The Company is not reasonably certain it will exercise the option and therefore, the lease is classified as an operating lease. Monthly payments required under this lease are approximately $9,000. The Company discounted the lease liability utilizing the incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement which was 5.50%. Total lease expense under this lease for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $104,000 and $43,333, respectively. The remaining term under this lease at December 31, 2023 is 3.6 years.

 

Also, the Company leases a truck used for is operations under a five-year lease which commenced during May 2022 ending during May 2027, classified as a finance lease. The lease calls for monthly payments of $3,304 bearing interest at 12.08% per annum. The lease includes a purchase option upon maturity of which the Company intends to exercise. The remaining term under this lease at December 31, 2023 is 3.3 years .

 

The Company also leases land for equipment storage on a month-to-month basis. These monthly leases are expensed to lease expense as incurred.
