Actual results may or may not differ from those estimates.
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may or may not differ from those estimates.
Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of inventory and stock-based compensation. The Company’s results can also be affected by economic, political, legislative, regulatory, legal actions, and the global volatility and general market disruption resulting from the global COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical tensions, such as Russia’s recent incursion into Ukraine. Economic conditions, such as recessionary trends, inflation, interest and monetary exchange rates, and government fiscal policies, can have a significant effect on operations. While the Company maintains reserves for anticipated liabilities and carries various levels of insurance, the Company could be affected by civil, criminal, environmental, regulatory or administrative actions, claims, or proceedings.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Recent accounting pronouncements, other than below, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) .the AICPA and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material effect on the Company’s present or future Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 is part of the FASB’s overall simplification initiative to reduce costs and complexity of applying accounting standards while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles of ASC 740, Income Taxes, (“ASU 740”) in order to reduce the cost and complexity of its application in the areas of intra-period tax allocation, deferred tax liabilities related to outside basis differences, year-to-date losses in interim periods and other areas within ASC 740. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021 and the adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity effective January 1, 2022. This ASU simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity and reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. As a result of the adoption of this ASU, the embedded conversion features associated with the Company’s convertible debt entered into during the first quarter of 2022 did not require separation from the debt instrument. Refer to Note 11 for further discussion regarding the Company’s convertible debt agreement.
No other new accounting pronouncement recently issued or newly effective had or is expected to have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
