Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and a subsidiary with a majority voting interest of 51.8% (48.2% is owned by non-controlling interests) as of September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017. In the preparation of consolidated financial statements of the Company, intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated and net earnings are reduced by the portion of the net earnings of the subsidiary applicable to non-controlling interests.

Non-controlling Interest in a Consolidated Subsidiary

Non-controlling Interest in a Consolidated Subsidiary

 

As of September 30, 2017, the non-controlling interest was $1,010,161, which represents a $9,033 increase from $1,001,128 as of June 30, 2017. The increase was due to the net income of subsidiary of $18,725 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, of which 48.2% was attributable to the non-controlling interests.

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting

 

Public companies are required to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments.  We identify our operating segments based on how our chief operating decision maker internally evaluates separate financial information, business activities and management responsibility. We have one reportable segment, consisting of the sale of wireless access products.

 

We generate revenues from four geographic areas, consisting of the United States, the Caribbean and South America, EMEA and Asia. The following enterprise-wide disclosure is prepared on a basis consistent with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The following table contains certain financial information by geographic area:

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of financial instruments such as cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt approximate the related fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. We invest our excess cash into financial instruments which management believes are readily convertible into cash, such as money market funds and certificates of deposit.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Based upon our review of our collection history as well as the current balances associated with all significant customers and associated invoices, we do not believe an allowance for doubtful accounts was necessary as of September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collection is reasonably assured and delivery of products has occurred or services have been rendered. Accordingly, we recognize revenues from product sales upon shipment of the products to customers or when the products are received by the customers in accordance with shipping or delivery terms. We provide a warranty for one year from the shipment date, which is covered by our vendors pursuant to purchase agreements. Any net warranty related expenditures made by us have not historically been material. Under our sales return policy, customers may generally return products that are under warranty for repair or replacement.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of Goods Sold

 

All costs associated with our contract manufacturers, as well as distribution, fulfillment and repair services are included in our cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold also includes amortization expense associated with capitalized product development costs associated with complete technology.

Capitalized Product Development Costs

Capitalized Product Development Costs

 

Our products contain embedded software internally developed by FTI, which is an integral part of these products because it allows the various components of the products to communicate with each other and the products are clearly unable to function without this coding.

 

The costs of product development that are capitalized once technological feasibility is determined (noted as Technology in progress in the Intangible Assets table) include certifications, licenses, payroll, employee benefits, and other headcount-related expenses associated with product development. We determine that technological feasibility for our products is reached after all high-risk development issues have been resolved. Once the products are available for general release to our customers, we cease capitalizing the product development costs and any additional costs, if any, are expensed. The capitalized product development costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis using the greater of straight-line amortization or the ratio of the current gross revenues to the current and anticipated future gross revenues. The amortization begins when the products are available for general release to our customers.

 

As of September 30, 2017, and June 30, 2017, capitalized product development costs in progress were $100,000 and $360,148, respectively, and these amounts are included in intangible assets in our consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended September 30, 2017, we incurred $194,932 in capitalized product development costs, and such amounts are primarily comprised of certifications and licenses. All costs incurred before technological feasibility is reached are expensed and included in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Research and Development Costs

Research and Development Costs

 

Costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs were $946,980 and $802,382 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Warranties

Warranties

 

We provide a warranty for one year which is covered by our vendors and manufacturers under purchase agreements between the Company and the vendors. As a result, we believe we do not have any net warranty exposure and do not accrue any warranty expenses. Historically, the Company has not experienced any material net warranty expenditures.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and Handling Costs

 

Costs associated with product shipping and handling are expensed as incurred.  Shipping and handling costs, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), were $192,366 and $317,811 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flow, we consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Inventories

Inventories

 

Our inventories consist of finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined on a first-in, first-out basis. We assess the inventory carrying value and reduce it, if necessary, to its net realizable value based on customer orders on hand, and internal demand forecasts using management’s best estimates given information currently available. Our customer demand is highly unpredictable, and can fluctuate significantly caused by factors beyond the control of the Company. We may write down our inventory value for potential obsolescence and excess inventory. As of September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017, we have recorded an inventory reserve in the amount of $143,173 for inventories that we have identified as obsolete or slow-moving.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Significant additions or improvements extending useful lives of assets are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows:

 

Machinery 6 years
Office equipment 5 years
Molds 3 years
Vehicles 5 years
Computers and software 5 years
Furniture and fixtures 7 years
Facilities improvements 5 years or life of the lease, whichever is shorter
Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill and certain intangible assets were recorded in connection with the FTI acquisition in October 2009, and are accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations.”  Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the tangible and intangible net assets acquired.  Intangible assets are recorded at their fair value at the date of acquisition. Goodwill and other intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”  Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually and any related impairment losses are recognized in earnings when identified. No impairment was recognized during the periods ended September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017.

 

The definite lived intangible assets consisted of the following as of September 30, 2017:

Amortization expense recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was $123,406 and $126,483, respectively.

Long-lived Assets

Long-lived Assets

 

We review for impairment of long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. We consider the carrying value of assets may not be recoverable based upon our review of the following events or changes in circumstances: the asset’s ability to continue to generate income from operations and positive cash flow in future periods; loss of legal ownership or title to the asset; significant changes in our strategic business objectives and utilization of the asset; or significant negative industry or economic trends.  An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset are less than its carrying amount.

 

As of September 30, 2017, we are not aware of any events or changes in circumstances that would indicate that the long-lived assets are impaired.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based Compensation

 

The Company’s employee share-based awards result in a cost that is measured at fair value on an award’s grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest. Stock-based compensation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the award’s vesting period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Transactions with non-employees in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty's performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur. Stock-based compensation costs are reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) based upon the underlying recipients' roles within the Company.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets, unless it is more likely than not such assets will be realized. Current income taxes are based on the year’s taxable income for federal and state income tax reporting purposes and the annual change in deferred taxes.

 

The Company assesses its income tax positions and records tax benefits based upon management’s evaluation of the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date. For those tax positions where it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will be sustained, the Company records the largest amount of tax benefit with a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where it is not more likely than not that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit is recognized in the financial statements. The Company classifies interest and penalties associated with such uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

 

As of September 30, 2017, we have no material unrecognized tax benefits. We recorded an income tax benefit of $136,001 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. We also recorded a increase in deferred tax asset, non-current, of $136,001 for the three months ended September 30, 2017.

Earnings per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

Earnings per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

 

Earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares that were outstanding for the period, without consideration for potential common shares. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income by the sum of the weighted-average number of dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method or the as-converted method. Potentially dilutive shares are comprised of common stock options outstanding under our stock plan.

We extend credit to our customers and perform ongoing credit evaluations of such customers. We evaluate our accounts receivable on a regular basis for collectability and provide for an allowance for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. No reserve was required or recorded for any of the periods presented.

 

Substantially all of our revenues are derived from sales of wireless data products. Any significant decline in market acceptance of our products or in the financial condition of our existing customers could impair our ability to operate effectively.

 

A significant portion of our revenue is derived from a small number of customers. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, sales to our two largest customers accounted for 65% and 19% of our consolidated net sales, and 67% and 20% of our accounts receivable balance as of September 30, 2017. In the same period in 2016, sales to our two largest customers accounted for 63% and 35% of our consolidated net sales and 62% and 36% of our accounts receivable balance as of September 30, 2016. No other customers accounted for more than ten percent of total net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, and no other customers accounted for more than ten percent of total accounts receivable as of September 30, 2017 and 2016.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we purchased the majority of our wireless data products from one manufacturing company located in Asia. If this manufacturing company were to experience delays, capacity constraints or quality control problems, product shipments to our customers could be delayed, or our customers could consequently elect to cancel the underlying product purchase order, which would negatively impact the Company's revenue. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we purchased wireless data products from this manufacturer in the amount of $3,793,336, or 84% of total purchases, and had related accounts payable of $4,542,021 as of September 30, 2017. For the three months ended September 30, 2016, we purchased wireless data products from one manufacturing company in the amount of $10,038,063, or 99% of total purchases, and had related accounts payable of $10,047,423 as of September 30, 2016.

 

We maintain our cash accounts with established commercial banks. Such cash deposits exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit of $250,000 for each financial institution.  However, we do not anticipate any losses on excess deposits.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory—Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. ASU 2015-11 requires inventory to be subsequently measured using the lower of cost and net realizable value, thereby eliminating the market value approach. Net realizable value is defined as the “estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation.” ASU 2015-11 was effective for us on July 1, 2017, and will be applied prospectively. Management does not expect that the adoption of this update will materially impact the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), which amends existing standards for leases to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring recognition of lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and requiring disclosure of key information about such arrangements. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for us beginning in our first quarter of fiscal 2020, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new standard on our consolidated financial statements and the timing and presentation of our adoption.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718) (ASU 2016-09), which provides guidance improvements to employee share-based payment accounting. The standard amends several aspects of current employee share-based payment accounting including income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 was effective for us beginning in our first quarter of fiscal 2018. Management does not expect that the adoption of this update will materially impact the Company's consolidated financial statements given the Company's limited use of stock options.

 

In April 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)(ASU 2016-10), which amends and adds clarity to certain aspects of the guidance set forth in the upcoming revenue standard (ASU 2014-09) related to identifying performance obligations and licensing. In May 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-11, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), which amends and rescinds certain revenue recognition guidance previously released within ASU 2014-09. In May 2016 the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (ASU 2016-12), which provides narrow scope improvements and practical expedients related to ASU 2014-09. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting these new standards on our consolidated financial statements. All of these new standards will be effective for us concurrently with ASU 2014-09, beginning in our first quarter of fiscal 2019, and early adoption is permitted.
