Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Techpoint, Inc. (together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the “Company”) was originally incorporated in California in April 2012 and reincorporated in Delaware in July 2017. The Company is a fabless semiconductor company that designs, markets and sells mixed-signal integrated circuits for multiple video applications in the security surveillance and automotive markets. The Company is headquartered in San Jose, California.

Basis of Consolidation and Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The functional currency of each of the Company’s subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. Foreign currency gains or losses are recorded as other income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2021 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which only include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or for any other future annual or interim periods.

Revenue Recognition

The Company principally sells its products to distributors who, in turn, sell to original design manufacturers (“ODM”), contract manufacturers and design houses. The Company accounts for revenue under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606 (“ASC 606”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company satisfies its performance obligations and primarily recognizes revenue upon shipment, at which time control of its products is transferred to its customers. The Company applies the following five-step model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied.

Product revenue consists of sales of mixed-signal integrated circuits into the security surveillance and automotive markets. The Company generally requires advance payments from customers and records these advance payments, or contract liabilities, as customer deposits on its consolidated balance sheet. Since the Company’s performance obligations relate to contracts with a duration of less than one year, the Company has elected to apply the optional exemption practical expedient provided in ASC 606 and is therefore not required to disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied at the end of the reporting period. The Company provides product assurance warranty only and does not offer warranties to be purchased separately. The Company allocates the transaction price to each distinct product based on a relative standalone selling price. Revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the Company’s customers, upon shipment, at which time the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s shipping terms are primarily FOB (free on board) shipping point, whereby legal title, risks and rewards of ownership, and physical possession are transferred to the customer upon shipment. Substantially all of the Company’s customers pay in advance of shipment, and no stock rotation, price protection or return rights are offered.

Use of Management’s Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments 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 reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates included in the consolidated financial statements include inventory valuation and the valuation allowance for recorded deferred tax assets. These estimates are based upon information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Certain Significant Risks and Uncertainties

The Company operates in a dynamic industry and can be affected by a variety of factors. For example, any of the following areas could have a negative effect on the Company in terms of its future financial position, results of operations or cash flows: the general state of the U.S., China and world economies; the highly cyclical nature of the industries the Company serves; successful and timely completion of product design efforts; trade restrictions by the United States against the Company's customers in China, or potential retaliatory trade actions taken by China; the loss of any of its larger customers; restrictions on the Company's ability to sell to foreign customers due to additional U.S. or new China trade laws, regulations and requirements; disruptions of the supply chain of components needed for its products; fundamental changes in the technology underlying the Company’s products; the hiring, training and retention of key employees; and new product design introductions by competitors.

Management continues to actively monitor the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, operations, end-customers (including its significant end-customers), distributors, suppliers, industry, and workforce. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s business, prospects and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the pandemic, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating activities can resume. In particular, as economies reopen there have been increases in demand for the Company’s products. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a global shortage for semiconductor products due to limited manufacturing capacities as semiconductor suppliers have been unable to rapidly respond to increased demandAlthough the Company continues to work with its suppliers as well as its manufacturing partners to secure additional capacity to meet the increased demand, there can be no assurances that such resources will be readily available when needed. The Company has made estimates of the impact of COVID-19 within its financial statements and there may be changes to those estimates in future periods.

 

Concentration of Customer and Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, investments, and trade receivables. Risks associated with cash and cash equivalents, and investments are mitigated by banking with, and investing in, creditworthy institutions. The Company generally requires advance payments from customers. The Company also performs credit evaluations of its customers and provides credit to certain customers in the normal course of business. The Company has not incurred bad debt write-offs during any of the periods presented.

For each significant customer, or distributor, and significant end-customer, revenue as a percentage of total revenue was as follows:

Concentration of Supplier Risk

The Company currently relies on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited and United Microelectronics Corporation (formerly Fujitsu Electronics America, Inc.) to produce substantially all of its semiconductors. Also, it relies on Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc. and Sigurd Microelectronics Corporation to assemble, package and test substantially all of its semiconductors to satisfy substantially all of the Company’s production requirements. The failure of any subcontractor to fulfill the production requirements of the Company on a timely basis would adversely impact future results. Although there are other subcontractors that are capable of providing similar services, an unexpected change in either subcontractor would cause delays in the Company’s products and potentially result in a significant loss of revenue.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-12, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. The guidance in ASU No. 2019-12 is required for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2020, for public business entities, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2021. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 or March 31, 2021.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. It also eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairment and requires credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. These changes will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for SEC filers that are eligible to be smaller reporting companies under the SEC’s definition, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance may have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
