Financial Statement Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

NOTE 2 — FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Signature, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its majority owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). The Company accounts for investments in companies over which it has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not hold a controlling interest, under the equity method of accounting, and records its proportionate share of income or losses in other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company accounts for investments in companies over which it does not have the ability to exercise significant influence under the cost method of accounting. These investments are carried at cost within other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. The Company evaluates subsequent events through the date of filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or the “Commission”). Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. These interim period unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on April 1, 2013, and amended on April 30, 2013 (the “Annual Report”). Certain amounts in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Reverse Stock Split

On October 7, 2013, the Company filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to effect the Reverse Split of its authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the Old Common Stock”). Effective October 15, 2013, every ten shares of the Company’s Old Common Stock were exchanged for one share of the Company’s new common stock (the “New Common Stock”). Following the Reverse Split, the Company has 66,500,000 shares of New Common Stock authorized, of which 12,213,219 shares of New Common Stock are issued and outstanding. In the Reverse Split, fractional share interests of New Common Stock were rounded up to the nearest whole number. After a twenty trading day period following the effective date of the Reverse Split, during which time the New Common Stock will be traded on the OTCQX under the trading symbol ‘SGGHD,’ the New Common Stock will trade on the OTCQX under the trading symbol ‘SGGH.’ All common stock share and per share information in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted to reflect retrospective application of the Reverse Split, unless otherwise indicated. See Note 17—Subsequent Events for additional information about the Reverse Split.

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in the Annual Report and, other than as described below, there have been no material changes to these accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash on deposit at financial institutions and other short-term liquid investments. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. All highly liquid investment instruments with maturities of three months or less at the acquisition date are classified as cash equivalents. Cash that is subject to legal restrictions or is unavailable for general operating purposes is classified as restricted cash.

Recent accounting standards

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-02, Comprehensive Income: Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2013-02”). ASU 2013-02 requires disclosure of information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“accumulated OCI”) by component. In addition, ASU 2013-02 requires presentation, either on the face of the statements of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated OCI by the respective line items of net income, but only if the amounts reclassified are required to be reclassified to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period under GAAP. For other amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income under GAAP, a cross-reference must be provided to other required disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. ASU 2013-02, which will increase disclosures for the Company as outlined above, is effective January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-02 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740)—Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (ASU 2013-11) to eliminate diversity in practice of presenting unrecognized tax benefits as a liability or presenting unrecognized tax benefits as a reduction of a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss or tax credit carryforward in certain circumstances, by requiring that an unrecognized tax benefit be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to deferred tax assets, excluding certain exceptions. ASU 2013-11 is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2013 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
