Concentrations of credit risk
 
Financial instruments which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents with high-credit quality financial institutions. At
October 31, 2020,
we had cash and cash equivalent balances in excess of federally insured limits in the amount of approximately
$14.2
million.
 
Two customers, both distributors, accounted for approximately
14%
and
12%
of net sales for the year ended
October 31, 2020.
These same
two
distributors had accounts receivable balances that accounted each for
12%
of the total net accounts receivable balance at
October 31, 2020.
For the year ended
October 31, 2019,
one
of these distributors and a wireless carrier accounted for approximately
19%
and
23%
of net sales. The wireless carrier's accounts receivable balance accounted for approximately
56%
of the total net accounts receivable balance at

Although these customers have been on-going major customers of the Company, the written agreement with these customers do
not
have any minimum purchase obligations and they could stop buying our products at any time and for any reason. A reduction, delay or cancellation of orders from these customers or the loss of these customers could significantly reduce our future revenues and profits.
