Note 1 — Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted.

 

The results of operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year.  It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

MOCON Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the Company), develops, manufactures and markets  measurement, analytical and  monitoring instruments, and provides consulting services for customers in the barrier packaging, food, pharmaceutical, consumer products, industrial hygiene, environmental, air quality monitoring, oil and gas exploration and other industries throughout the world.  The Company’s acquisition of Dansensor A/S (Dansensor) in 2012 expanded the Company’s offerings into the Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) market world-wide.  MAP technology enables food packagers in a variety of food service industries to produce an extended shelf life by altering the gas mixture within the packaged environment, thereby reducing the need for artificial preservatives.

 

During the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Dansensor, a Danish company. Dansensor designs, manufactures, sells, and services quality control and assurance equipment for businesses that utilize modified atmosphere or sealed packaging.  Dansensor also offers a complete range of gas mixers, analyzers, and leak detection equipment and sells its products world-wide. The acquisition significantly expands the Company’s presence in Europe and particularly in MAP technology, a growing world-wide market.  All of the assets and liabilities of Dansensor were recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their respective fair values on the date of acquisition.

 

During fiscal 2012, the Company increased the number of reporting segments from one to three to reflect the integration of Dansensor’s operations.  These are classified as Permeation Products and Services (“Permeation”), Package Testing Products and Services (“Package Testing”), and Industrial Analyzer Products and Services and Other (“Industrial Analyzers and Other”) for financial reporting purposes.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MOCON, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively the Company).  All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

 

On January 1, 2013, the Company adopted the FASB issued disclosure requirements with respect to changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). Under this new guidance, companies are required to disclose the amount of income (or loss) reclassified out of AOCI to each respective line item on the statements of income where net income is presented on either the face of the financial statements or within the footnotes. The provisions of the guidance are to be applied prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company has elected to disclose the reclassification in the notes to the financial statements (see Note 7).
