Notes to Financial Statements | |
NOTE 1 - Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018, the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 have been prepared by BK Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation have been made. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017 has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full year. Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and the additional related ASUs (ASC “606”), which replaces existing revenue guidance and outlines a single set of comprehensive principles for recognizing revenue under GAAP. The Company elected the modified retrospective method upon adoption with no impact to the opening retained earnings or revenue reported. These standards provide guidance on recognizing revenue, including a five-step method to determine when revenue recognition is appropriate.
Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract Step 3: Determine the transaction price Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations Step 5: Recognize revenue as the Company satisfies a performance obligation
ASC 606 provides that revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We generally satisfy performance obligations upon shipment of the product or service to the customer. This is consistent with the time in which the customer obtains control of the product or service. For extended warranties, sales revenue associated with the warranty is deferred at the time of sale and later recognized on a straight-line basis over the extended warranty period. Some contracts include installation services, which are completed in a short period of time and the revenue is recognized when the installation is complete.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The Company determines whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity by first evaluating whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) or a voting interest entity.
VIEs are entities in which (i) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to enable the entity to finance its activities independently, or (ii) the at-risk equity holders do not have the normal characteristics of a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest in a VIE is present when an enterprise has one or more variable interests that have both (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The enterprise with a controlling financial interest is the primary beneficiary and consolidates the VIE.
Voting interest entities lack one or more of the characteristics of a VIE. The usual condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest for a corporation or a majority of kick-out or participating rights for a limited partnership.
When the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in an entity but exerts significant influence over the entity’s operating and financial policies (generally defined as owning a voting or economic interest of between 20% to 50%), the Company’s investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. If the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in, or exert significant influence over, an entity, the Company accounts for its investment at fair value, if the fair value option was elected, or at cost.
The Company has an investment in 1347 Property Insurance Holdings, Inc., made through FGI 1347 Holdings, LP, a consolidated VIE.
Fair Value The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, investment in securities, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities approximated their respective fair value due to the short-term nature and maturity of these instruments. The Company uses observable market data or assumptions (Level 1 inputs, as defined in accounting guidance) that it believes market participants would use in pricing the investment in securities. There were no transfers of investment in securities between Level 1 and Level 2 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Available-For-Sale Securities Investments reported on the December 31, 2017 balance sheet consisted of marketable equity securities of a publicly held company. As of December 31, 2017, the investment cost was $2,402. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01 “Financial Instruments,” which amended the guidance in U.S. GAAP regarding the classification and measurement of financial instruments. Changes to the prior guidance primarily affected the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the ASU clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. Upon its adoption, the Company applied the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance was effective. On January 1, 2018, the Company recognized approximately $4,300 of net unrealized gain in its accumulated deficit balance. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company sold 1,317,503 shares of Iteris, Inc. (Nasdaq: ITI), which cost $2,402, for approximately $8,335 of proceeds and reported a loss on the sales of approximately $849. Other Comprehensive Income Other comprehensive income consists of net income and unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities, net of taxes. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which provided for a single, principles-based model for revenue recognition and replaced the existing revenue recognition guidance, became effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and replaced most existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. This ASU requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgements and estimates and changes in those estimates. It permits the use of either a modified retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 in the first quarter of 2018 and applied the modified retrospective approach. Because the Company’s primary source of revenues is from shipments of products, the adoption of this new guidance did not have any impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. See Note 1 for additional information. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 “Financial Instruments,” which amended the guidance in U.S. GAAP on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. Changes primarily affected the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the ASU clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The new standard became effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and upon adoption, an entity was required to apply the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company adopted the new guidance, which had a material impact on its retained earnings, as the Company reclassified approximately $4,300 of unrealized gain on investment securities that was previously classified in other comprehensive income. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases,” which amends leasing guidance by requiring companies to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all operating and capital (finance) leases with lease terms greater than twelve months. The lease liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments. The lease asset will be based on the lease liability, subject to adjustment, such as for initial direct costs. For income statement purposes, leases will continue to be classified as operating or capital (finance), with lease expense in both cases calculated substantially the same as under the prior leasing guidance. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects this will result in the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities not currently recorded on the consolidated financial statements under existing accounting guidance. The Company is still evaluating all the Company’s contractual arrangements, however, based on the preliminary work completed, the Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the SEC adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, amending certain disclosure requirements that were redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded. In addition, the amendments expanded the disclosure requirements on the analysis of stockholders' equity for interim financial statements. Under the amendments, an analysis of changes in each caption of stockholders' equity presented in the balance sheet must be provided in a note or separate statement. The analysis should present a reconciliation of the beginning balance to the ending balance of each period for which a statement of comprehensive income is required to be filed. This final rule is effective for all filings made on or after November 5, 2018. Given the effective date and the proximity to most filers’ quarterly reports, the SEC is not objecting to filers deferring the presentation of interim changes in stockholders’ equity in their Forms 10-Q until the quarter that begins after the date of adoption, November 5, 2018. We intend to present interim changes in stockholders’ equity beginning with our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2019 The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures. |

The task orders were for the Company’s UHF portable radios and related accessories, which are anticipated to be delivered during the fourth quarter of 2018. The SURAC contract is intended to serve as the U.S. Army’s primary contract vehicle for procuring Project 25 standard of the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (P-25) digital communications equipment. The Company was one of five companies selected by the U.S. Army. The maximum total value of the contract is $495,000 over a five-year period that commenced on June 18, 2018, and ends on June 18, 2023. The contract does not specify purchase dates or quantities of equipment from any particular named supplier, and there is no assurance that the Company will receive any additional orders.
In July 2018, the Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”) of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security exercised its third one-year option, extending its contract with the Company for an additional year to September 27, 2019. The option provides for the purchase of up to $2,000 of the Company’s products; however, precise dates for quantities or deliveries are not specified. The original contract awarded in September 2015 totaled $26,200, with $15,500 in firm delivery orders and $10,700 in potential option exercises. Separate from the contract extension, the TSA also ordered approximately $2,000 of additional equipment and services for deployment at various domestic airports.
Pursuant to the Company’s capital return program, on September 6, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.02 per share of the Company’s common stock to stockholders of record as of October 1, 2018. These dividends were paid on October 15, 2018.

NOTE 5 - Income Taxes | Income tax expense totaling approximately $17 and $200 has been recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, compared with $252 and $353, respectively, for the same periods last year.
The Company’s income tax provision is based on management’s estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The tax provision in any period will be affected by, among other things, permanent, as well as temporary differences in the deductibility of certain items, in addition to changes in tax legislation. As a result, the Company may experience significant fluctuations in the effective book tax rate (that is, tax expense divided by pre-tax book income) from period to period. For 2018, the Company generally expects its effective tax rate to decline compared to 2017, primarily due to the implementation of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted in December 2017, which, among other things, reduced the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%.
As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company’s net deferred tax assets totaled approximately $3,122 and $3,317, respectively, and were primarily composed of net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) and research and development costs and tax credits. As of September 30, 2018, these NOLs totaled approximately $5,216 for federal and $12,766 for state purposes, with expirations starting in 2018 through 2030.
In order to fully utilize the net deferred tax assets, the Company will need to generate sufficient taxable income in future years to utilize its NOLs prior to their expiration. The Company analyzes all positive and negative evidence to determine if, based on the weight of available evidence, the Company is more likely than not to realize the benefit of the net deferred tax assets. The recognition of the net deferred tax assets and related tax benefits is based upon the Company’s conclusions regarding, among other considerations, estimates of future earnings based on information currently available, current and anticipated customers, contracts and product introductions, as well as historical operating results and certain tax planning strategies.
Based on management’s analysis of all available evidence, both positive and negative, the Company’s management has concluded that the Company does not have the ability to generate sufficient taxable income in the necessary period to utilize the entire benefit for the deferred tax asset. Management estimated that as of September 30, 2018, it is more likely than not that approximately $83 of the Company’s deferred tax asset will not be realized due to the inability to generate sufficient Florida taxable income in the necessary period to fully utilize its Florida NOLs. The Company cannot presently estimate what, if any, changes to the valuation of its deferred tax assets may be deemed appropriate in the future. If the Company incurs future losses, it may be necessary to record additional valuation allowance related to the deferred tax assets recognized as of September 30, 2018.

NOTE 9 - Non-Cash Share-Based Employee Compensation | The Company has an employee and non-employee director share-based incentive compensation plan. Related to these programs, the Company recorded non-cash share-based employee compensation expense of $28 and $66 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, compared with $19 and $34, respectively, for the same periods last year. The Company considers its non-cash share-based employee compensation expenses as a component of cost of products and selling, general and administrative expenses. There was no non-cash share-based employee compensation expense capitalized as part of capital expenditures or inventory for the periods presented.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model to calculate the fair value of a stock option grant. The non-cash share-based employee compensation expense recorded in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was calculated using certain assumptions. Such assumptions are described more comprehensively in Note 10 (Share-Based Employee Compensation) of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.
A summary of activity under the Company’s stock option plans during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 is presented below:
Restricted Stock Units
On September 6, 2018, the Company granted to each non-employee director restricted stock units with a grant fair value of $20 per award (resulting in total aggregate grant-date fair value of $140), which will vest in five equal annual installments beginning with the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to the director’s continued service through such date, provided that, if the director makes himself available and consents to be nominated by the Company for continued service as a director, but is not nominated for the Board for election by shareholders, other than for good reason as determined by the Board in its discretion, then the restricted stock units shall vest in full as of the director’s last date of service as a director of the Company.
On June 4, 2018, the Company granted to each non-employee director restricted stock units with a grant fair value of $20 per award (resulting in total aggregate grant-date fair value of $140), which will vest on June 4, 2019, subject to continued service through such vesting date.
On June 15, 2017, the Company granted to each non-employee director restricted stock units with a grant fair value of $20 per award (resulting in total aggregate grant-date fair value of $140), which vested on June 15, 2018.
The Company recorded non-cash restricted stock unit compensation expense of $38 and $111 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, compared with $35 and $41 for the same periods last year.

TSG was a sales representative of the Company that the Company terminated in March 2017. TSG asserted claims against the Company for alleged breach of oral contract, violation of the California and Arizona sales representative statutes and an accounting of alleged unpaid sales commissions. TSG’s complaint sought damages in the amount of $6,090 for alleged unpaid past and future sales commissions. On April 3, 2017, counsel for TSG sent the Company a letter outlining additional alleged grounds for recovery against the Company and offering to settle the litigation in exchange for the continued payment of sales commissions to TSG for a negotiated period, a buyout of TSG’s alleged rights for a negotiated sum or reinstatement of TSG for a period of at least 2.5 years with commission rates equal to those in effect at the time of TSG’s termination. The matter was mediated on November 14, 2017, during which the parties agreed to a settlement. On December 19, 2017, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with TSG, pursuant to which TSG agreed to dismiss with prejudice its lawsuit filed against the Company. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company agreed to pay an amount of $900 to TSG on or before December 31, 2017. The Company also agreed to pay to TSG commissions, at the rates in effect since February 7, 2013, on all orders for the Company’s products received and accepted by the Company from the states of Arizona, California, Nevada and Hawaii from January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018, other than for (i) sales of the Company’s products to federal government agencies and offices, (ii) sales of the Company’s products to other end-users, excepting state and local government agencies and offices, and (iii) sales of parts or service, including warranty service. In addition, if at any time on or before December 31, 2018, the Company completes a change-in-control transaction, then the Company will pay to TSG an amount equal to $2,000, less the amount of commissions paid by the Company with respect to 2018, as described above. The settlement agreement settled all claims raised by TSG in its lawsuit against the Company. In December 2017, the Company recorded an estimated commission amount of approximately $536. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company paid $682 in commissions to TSG. In June 2018, the Company estimated and recorded an additional commission amount of approximately $290 for the remainder of 2018. No additional commission amounts were estimated for the three months ended September 30, 2018.
Purchase Commitments
As of September 30, 2018, the Company had purchase orders to suppliers for inventory of approximately $6,924.
Significant Customers
Sales to United States government agencies represented approximately $7,110 (53.5%) and $15,879 (41.0%) of the Company’s total sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, compared with approximately $5,210 (43.7%) and $11,145 (36.5%), respectively, for the same periods last year. Accounts receivable from agencies of the United States government were $3,440 as of September 30, 2018, compared with approximately $2,977 at the same date last year.

Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements | |
Basis of Presentation | The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018, the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 have been prepared by BK Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation have been made. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017 has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements at that date. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for a full year. Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and the additional related ASUs (ASC “606”), which replaces existing revenue guidance and outlines a single set of comprehensive principles for recognizing revenue under GAAP. The Company elected the modified retrospective method upon adoption with no impact to the opening retained earnings or revenue reported. These standards provide guidance on recognizing revenue, including a five-step method to determine when revenue recognition is appropriate.
Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract Step 3: Determine the transaction price Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations Step 5: Recognize revenue as the Company satisfies a performance obligation
ASC 606 provides that revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We generally satisfy performance obligations upon shipment of the product or service to the customer. This is consistent with the time in which the customer obtains control of the product or service. For extended warranties, sales revenue associated with the warranty is deferred at the time of sale and later recognized on a straight-line basis over the extended warranty period. Some contracts include installation services, which are completed in a short period of time and the revenue is recognized when the installation is complete. |
Principles of Consolidation | The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The Company determines whether it has a controlling financial interest in an entity by first evaluating whether the entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) or a voting interest entity.
VIEs are entities in which (i) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to enable the entity to finance its activities independently, or (ii) the at-risk equity holders do not have the normal characteristics of a controlling financial interest. A controlling financial interest in a VIE is present when an enterprise has one or more variable interests that have both (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The enterprise with a controlling financial interest is the primary beneficiary and consolidates the VIE.
Voting interest entities lack one or more of the characteristics of a VIE. The usual condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest for a corporation or a majority of kick-out or participating rights for a limited partnership.
When the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in an entity but exerts significant influence over the entity’s operating and financial policies (generally defined as owning a voting or economic interest of between 20% to 50%), the Company’s investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. If the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in, or exert significant influence over, an entity, the Company accounts for its investment at fair value, if the fair value option was elected, or at cost.
The Company has an investment in 1347 Property Insurance Holdings, Inc., made through FGI 1347 Holdings, LP, a consolidated VIE. |
Fair Value | The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, investment in securities, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities approximated their respective fair value due to the short-term nature and maturity of these instruments.
The Company uses observable market data or assumptions (Level 1 inputs, as defined in accounting guidance) that it believes market participants would use in pricing the investment in securities. There were no transfers of investment in securities between Level 1 and Level 2 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. |
Available-For-Sale Securities | Investments reported on the December 31, 2017 balance sheet consisted of marketable equity securities of a publicly held company. As of December 31, 2017, the investment cost was $2,402. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01 “Financial Instruments,” which amended the guidance in U.S. GAAP regarding the classification and measurement of financial instruments. Changes to the prior guidance primarily affected the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the ASU clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. Upon its adoption, the Company applied the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance was effective. On January 1, 2018, the Company recognized approximately $4,300 of net unrealized gain in its accumulated deficit balance. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company sold 1,317,503 shares of Iteris, Inc. (Nasdaq: ITI), which cost $2,402, for approximately $8,335 of proceeds and reported a loss on the sales of approximately $849.

Other Comprehensive Income | Other comprehensive income consists of net income and unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities, net of taxes. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which provided for a single, principles-based model for revenue recognition and replaced the existing revenue recognition guidance, became effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and replaced most existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. This ASU requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgements and estimates and changes in those estimates. It permits the use of either a modified retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 in the first quarter of 2018 and applied the modified retrospective approach. Because the Company’s primary source of revenues is from shipments of products, the adoption of this new guidance did not have any impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. See Note 1 for additional information. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 “Financial Instruments,” which amended the guidance in U.S. GAAP on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. Changes primarily affected the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the ASU clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The new standard became effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and upon adoption, an entity was required to apply the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company adopted the new guidance, which had a material impact on its retained earnings, as the Company reclassified approximately $4,300 of unrealized gain on investment securities that was previously classified in other comprehensive income. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases,” which amends leasing guidance by requiring companies to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all operating and capital (finance) leases with lease terms greater than twelve months. The lease liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments. The lease asset will be based on the lease liability, subject to adjustment, such as for initial direct costs. For income statement purposes, leases will continue to be classified as operating or capital (finance), with lease expense in both cases calculated substantially the same as under the prior leasing guidance. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects this will result in the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities not currently recorded on the consolidated financial statements under existing accounting guidance. The Company is still evaluating all the Company’s contractual arrangements, however, based on the preliminary work completed, the Company expects that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the SEC adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, amending certain disclosure requirements that were redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded. In addition, the amendments expanded the disclosure requirements on the analysis of stockholders' equity for interim financial statements. Under the amendments, an analysis of changes in each caption of stockholders' equity presented in the balance sheet must be provided in a note or separate statement. The analysis should present a reconciliation of the beginning balance to the ending balance of each period for which a statement of comprehensive income is required to be filed. This final rule is effective for all filings made on or after November 5, 2018. Given the effective date and the proximity to most filers’ quarterly reports, the SEC is not objecting to filers deferring the presentation of interim changes in stockholders’ equity in their Forms 10-Q until the quarter that begins after the date of adoption, November 5, 2018. We intend to present interim changes in stockholders’ equity beginning with our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of 2019 The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
