BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for CVD Equipment Corporation and Subsidiaries (collectively “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the interim financials not misleading have been included and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.

 

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at such date, as filed on Form 10-K with the SEC on March 31, 2021, but does not contain all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report.

 

All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, certain reclassifications have been made to prior period consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.

 

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS

 

In January 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors concluded that a change in the Company’s business strategy and direction was necessary and appointed Emmanuel Lakios as President and Chief Executive Officer (previously our Vice-President- Sales and Marketing) to, among other things, evaluate the Company’s business strategy and operations. Based on this evaluation, due to the continuing losses and significant investments required to continue in the Materials business, the Board concluded that our primary focus should be on the core equipment business and that the Materials Business strategy should be revised, with some of its current element’s potentially minimized or ceased.  Based upon an analysis, including forecasted continued losses and negative cash flows for the Tantaline product line, the Company has implemented plans to eliminate further investment in our Tantaline product line. In addition, we recorded an impairment charge of $3.6 million during the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2020, related to Tantaline Long lived assets. In addition, the Company continues to monitor its costs and will take actions to mitigate expenses in the future to align them with anticipated revenue levels.

 

During February 2021, in order to increase the Company’s liquidity and to provide necessary working capital to support the Company’s on-going business and operations, the Board decided to sell its facility located at 555 North Research Place, Central Islip, NY (the “555 Building”). Management determined the 555 Building is not needed for present and future business operations and concluded that any remaining elements of the Materials Business can be consolidated into its remaining facility in Central Islip (the “355 Building”), which it believes can accommodate any needs for our growth for the foreseeable future. In April 2021, the Company completed the move of its Tantaline product line to the 355 Building, while the MesoScribe consolidation into the 355 Building has been initiated. All functions of the Tantaline product line have been consolidated into the Denmark office and the United States expenses related to Tantaline have ceased. On March 29, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with Steel K, LLC for the sale of the 555 Building, and on July 26, 2021 the Company closed on the sale of the 555 Building. The sale price was $24,360,000, subject to adjustment for apportionments, adjustments and credits. A portion of the sale proceeds were used to satisfy the existing mortgage debt on the 555 Building, including interest and fees, in the amount of $9,352,719, as well as various costs related to the closing of the transaction. The net proceeds to the Company were approximately $14,000,000 (see Note 14).
