NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Description of Business

 

Communications Systems, Inc. (herein collectively called “CSI” or the “Company”) is a Minnesota corporation organized in 1969 that operates primarily as a holding company conducting its business through three business units having operations in the United States, Costa Rica, the United Kingdom and China. Through its Suttle business unit, the Company is principally engaged in the manufacture and sale of copper and fiber connectivity systems, enclosure systems, and active technologies for voice, data and video communications. Through its Transition Networks business unit, the Company is engaged in the manufacture of of network interface devices, media converters, network interface cards, Ethernet switches and other connectivity products that offer the ability to affordably integrate the benefits of fiber optics into any data network.  Through its JDL Technologies business unit, the Company provides technology solutions including virtualization, managed services, wired and wireless network design and implementation, HIPAA-compliant IT services, and converged infrastructure configuration and deployment.

 

Financial Statement Presentation

 

The condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity as of June 30, 2014 and the related condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 have been prepared by Company management.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments, except where noted) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at June 30, 2014 and 2013 and for the periods then ended have been made.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted.  We recommend these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s December 31, 2013 Annual Report to Shareholders on Form 10-K.  The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the entire year.

 

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  The estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are based upon management’s evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances as of the time of the financial statements.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Except to the extent updated or described below, the significant accounting policies set forth in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, appropriately represent, in all material respects, the current status of accounting policies, and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance for revenue recognition for contracts, superseding the previous revenue recognition requirements, along with most existing industry-specific guidance. The guidance requires an entity to review contracts in five steps: 1) identify the contract, 2) identify performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price, and 5) recognize revenue. The new standard will result in enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue arising from contracts with customers. The standard is effective for our reporting year beginning January 1, 2017 and early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, this new accounting pronouncement will have on our financial statements.

The Company tests for other than temporary losses on a quarterly basis and has considered the unrealized losses indicated above to be temporary in nature. The Company intends to hold the investments until it can recover the full principal amount and has the ability to do so based on other sources of liquidity. The Company expects these recoveries to occur prior to the contractual maturities.  All unrealized losses as of June 30, 2014 were in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than twelve months and are not deemed to be other than temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2014.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of our investments, designated as available-for-sale and classified by the contractual maturity date of the securities as of June 30, 2014:

Under the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), employees are able to acquire shares of common stock at 90% of the price at the end of each current quarterly plan term.  The most recent term ended June 30, 2014.  The ESPP is considered compensatory under current Internal Revenue Service rules.  At June 30, 2014, after giving effect to the shares issued as of that date, 29,013 shares remain available for purchase under the ESPP.

 

2011 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan

 

On March 28, 2011 the Board adopted and on May 19, 2011 the Company’s shareholders approved the Company’s 2011 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan (“2011 Incentive Plan”).  The 2011 Incentive Plan authorizes incentive awards to officers, key employees and non-employee directors in the form of options (incentive and non-qualified), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock units (“deferred stock”), performance cash units, and other awards in stock, cash, or a combination of stock and cash.  Up to 1,000,000 shares of our common stock may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2011 Incentive Plan. 

 

During 2014, stock options covering 300,246 shares were awarded to key executive employees and directors, which options expire seven years from the date of award and vest 25% each year beginning one year after the date of award.  The Company also granted deferred stock awards of 43,824 shares to key employees during 2014 under the Company’s long-term incentive plan that vest over three years with the first vesting period at March 28, 2015

 

At June 30, 2014,  279,768 shares remained available for future issuance under the 2011 Incentive Plan.

 

 

Stock Option Plan for Directors

 

Shares of common stock are reserved for issuance to non-employee directors under options granted by the Company prior to 2011 under its Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Director Plan”).  Under the Director Plan nonqualified stock options to acquire shares of common stock were automatically granted to each non-employee director concurrent with annual meetings of shareholders in 2010 and earlier years, with the exercise price of options granted being the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the respective shareholder meetings.  Options granted under the Director Plan expire 10 years from date of grant.   

 

No options were granted under the Director Plan in 2013 or 2014.  The Director Plan was amended as of May 19, 2011 to prohibit option grants in 2011 and future years.

 

1992 Stock Plan

 

Under the Company’s 1992 Stock Plan (“the Stock Plan”), shares of common stock may be issued pursuant to stock options, restricted stock or deferred stock grants to officers and key employees.  Exercise prices of stock options under the Stock Plan cannot be less than fair market value of the stock on the date of grant.  Rules and conditions governing awards of stock options, restricted stock and deferred stock are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, subject to certain limitations in the Stock PlanWhen seeking approval of the 2011 Incentive Plan at the 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Company committed to amending the Stock Plan to prohibit the issuance of future equity awards if such approval was given. Effective August 11, 2011, the amendment to prohibit future stock options or other equity awards was approved by the Board.

 

At June 30, 2014, after reserving for stock options and deferred stock awards granted in prior years and adjusting for forfeitures and issuances during the year, there were 60,598 shares reserved for issuance under the Stock Plan. The Company has not awarded stock options or deferred stock under this plan in 2013 or 2014.

NOTE 6 – WARRANTY

 

We provide reserves for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized.  We estimate the costs of our warranty obligations based on our warranty policy or applicable contractual warranty, historical experience of known product failure rates, and use of materials and service delivery costs incurred in correcting product failures.  Management reviews the estimated warranty liability on a quarterly basis to determine its adequacy.  The actual warranty expense could differ from the estimates made by the Company based on product performance.

 

The following table presents the changes in the Company’s warranty liability for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, the majority of which relates to a five-year obligation to provide for potential future liabilities for network equipment sales.

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES

 

In the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, management calculates income taxes based upon the estimated effective rate applicable to operating results for the full fiscal year. This includes estimating the current tax liability as well as assessing differences resulting from different treatment of items for tax and book accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are recorded on the balance sheet. These assets and liabilities are analyzed regularly and management assesses the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income.

  

At June 30, 2014 there was $243,000 of net uncertain tax benefit positions that would reduce the effective income tax rate if recognized.  The Company records interest and penalties related to income taxes as income tax expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

 

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. The tax years 2010-2012 remain open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the years 2009-2012 remain open to examination by various state tax departments. During the second quarter, the IRS completed an examination of our 2011 federal income tax return.  There were no material changes to the return as filed. The tax years from 2010-2012 remain open in Costa Rica.

 

The Company’s effective income tax rate was 35.5% for the first six months of 2014. The effective tax rate differs from the federal tax rate of 35% due to state income taxes, foreign losses not deductible for U.S. income tax purposes, provisions for interest charges for uncertain income tax positions, and settlement of uncertain tax positions. The effect of the foreign operations is an overall rate increase of approximately 3.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2014.  There were no additional uncertain tax positions identified in the first six months of 2014.  The Company's effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30,  2013 was 36.4%, and differed from the federal tax rate due to state income taxes, foreign losses not deductible for U.S. income tax purposes, provisions for interest charges, and the effect of operations conducted in lower foreign tax rate jurisdictions.

NOTE 9 – SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

Effective January 1, 2014, the Company realigned the financial reporting for its business units.  As a result of this realignment, all corporate general and administrative expenses that were previously categorized as “Other” are now included within the three business units as fully allocated costs. The Company classifies its businesses into three segments as follows:

 

·

Suttle manufactures and markets copper and fiber connectivity systems, enclosure systems, xDSL filters and splitters, and active technologies for voice, data and video communications;

·

Transition Networks manufactures network interface devices (NIDs), media converters, network interface cards (NICs), Ethernet switches and other connectivity products that offer the ability to affordably integrate the benefits of fiber optics into any data network; and

·

JDL Technologies provides technology solutions including virtualization, managed services, wired and wireless network design and implementation, HIPAA-compliant IT services, and converged infrastructure configuration and deployment.

 

Management has chosen to organize the enterprise and disclose reportable segments based on our products and services. There are no material inter-segment revenues. In order to conform to the 2014 presentation, the Company has reclassified the previously non-allocated Corporate expenses within the business segments.

 

Information concerning the Company’s continuing operations in the various segments for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

Net Income Per Share

NOTE 11 – NET INCOME PER SHARE

 

Basic net income per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. Diluted net income per common share takes into effect the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding.  The Company’s only potential common shares outstanding are stock options and shares associated with the long-term incentive compensation plans, which resulted in a dilutive effect of 23,118 and 23,297 shares for the three and six-months ended 2014, respectively. The dilutive effect of stock options for the three and six-month periods ended June 30,  2013 was 3,596 shares and 6,132 shares, respectively.  The Company calculates the dilutive effect of outstanding options using the treasury stock method. Options totaling 202,897 were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 because the exercise price was greater than the average market price of common stock during the period and deferred stock awards totaling 171,544 shares were not included for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2014 because of unmet performance conditions. Options totaling 106,746 were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30,  2013 because the exercise price was greater than the average market price of common stock during the period and deferred stock awards totaling 273,571 shares were not included for the three and six month period ended June 30,  2013 because of unmet performance conditions.

Fair Value Measurements

NOTE 12 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The accounting guidance establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to valuation used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows:

Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar instruments and quoted prices in markets that are not active, and inputs that are directly observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts, such as treasury securities with pricing interpolated from recent trades of similar securities, or priced with models using highly observable inputs, such as commodity options priced using observable forward prices and volatilities.

Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that have little or no observability as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as the complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial instruments.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, are summarized below:

Financial Statement Presentation

 

The condensed consolidated balance sheets and condensed consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity as of June 30, 2014 and the related condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 have been prepared by Company management.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments, except where noted) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at June 30, 2014 and 2013 and for the periods then ended have been made.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted.  We recommend these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s December 31, 2013 Annual Report to Shareholders on Form 10-K.  The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the entire year.

 

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  The estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are based upon management’s evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances as of the time of the financial statements.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Except to the extent updated or described below, the significant accounting policies set forth in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, appropriately represent, in all material respects, the current status of accounting policies, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance for revenue recognition for contracts, superseding the previous revenue recognition requirements, along with most existing industry-specific guidance. The guidance requires an entity to review contracts in five steps: 1) identify the contract, 2) identify performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price, and 5) recognize revenue. The new standard will result in enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue arising from contracts with customers. The standard is effective for our reporting year beginning January 1, 2017 and early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, this new accounting pronouncement will have on our financial statements.
