NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2013 and 2012

(unaudited)

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

DPMS, Inc. dba Danco Machine DPMS (the “Company” or “Danco”) was founded in 1979 to meet the challenge of providing competitively priced, quality prototype machining services to the emerging high-tech industries of the Silicon Valley.

On October 17, 2007, the Company was acquired by Danco Acquisition Corporation, an entity created by a group of private equity firms to facilitate their acquisition of the Company. The transaction was effected so that Danco would have the necessary financial and managerial resources available to continue to strategically grow. These financial statements contain the consolidated results of Danco Acquisition Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary DPMS, Inc.

Liquidity and Management’s Plans

The Company experienced operating losses and operating cash flow deficiencies during 2013 and 2012. Management has plans to return the Company to profitability and positive cash flows. Management is closely monitoring its demand, and if demand does not increase as expected, management may implement cost-cutting measures. If strategies to improve margins and reduce operating costs are not successful, and the Company is not able to meet its debt obligations, then the Company will need to further reduce expenses or raise additional capital through other sources.

The Company also has $14,520,514 of notes payable and a line of credit balance of $3,150,000 that mature in 2015 and 2016. These balances are payable to a lender who is an affiliated entity of the majority stockholder of the Company. This stockholder has demonstrated continued support for its investment in the Company. Subsequent to year-end the lender (affiliated entity of the majority stockholder) increased the line of credit facility size from $3,150,000 to $4,150,000. If the Company is unable to improve the cash flow from operations, the Company will need to seek additional capital from the stockholders or other sources. However, there is no assurance that the stockholders will continue to provide capital to the Company or that the Company will be able to obtain additional capital from other sources.

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Revenue Recognition and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company recognizes revenue when (i) delivery of product has occurred, (ii) there is persuasive evidence of a sale arrangement, (iii) selling prices are fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability from the customers is reasonably assured. Revenue is recorded when the risk and rewards of ownership are transferred to the Company’s customers, which generally occurs upon shipment of the product. Accounts receivable is stated at an amount that management believes to be collectible. Historically, bad debts have been within management’s expectations.

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of standard cost (which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. The Company evaluates the valuation of all inventory, including raw materials, work-in-process, finished goods and spare parts on a periodic basis. Obsolete inventory or inventory in excess of management’s estimated usage is written-down to its estimated market value less costs to sell, if less than its cost. Inherent in the estimates of market value are management’s estimates related to economic trends, future demand for products and technological obsolescence of the Company’s products.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and include improvements that significantly add to productive capacity or extend useful life. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to fifteen years. Repair and maintenance costs that do not increase the useful lives and/or enhance the value of the assets are charged to operations as incurred. Leasehold improvements are stated at cost and amortized over the lesser of the terms of the respective leases or the assets’ useful lives.

The Company evaluates their long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets consist primarily of property and equipment. Recoverability of assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset group to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment charge is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell. The Company did not recognize any impairment charges associated with long-lived assets for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill and other intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired by the Company. Other intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of expected benefit with a weighted-average useful life of approximately 5.4 years with no calculated residual value. The estimated useful lives of identifiable intangible assets are as follows:

 

Description

   Period  
Covenants not to compete      5 years   
Customer lists      7 years   

The Company assesses the impairment of goodwill on an annual basis on December 31. Goodwill is also tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (Continued)

 

Due to the Company’s losses from operations over the past years, in 2012 the Company concluded that the goodwill balance was likely fully impaired. As such, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $11,006,573 in its statement of operations during the year ended December 31, 2012.

Debt Issuance Costs

The Company amortizes debt issuance costs using the effective interest method over the term of the related notes payable.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

Significant judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considers all available evidence, including past operating results, estimates of future taxable income and the feasibility of tax planning strategies. In the event that the Company changes its determination as to the amount of deferred tax assets that is more likely than not to be realized, the Company will adjust its valuation allowance with a corresponding impact to the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made.

The Company follows the authoritative guidance regarding uncertain tax positions. This guidance requires that realization of an uncertain income tax position must be more likely than not (i.e., greater than 50% likelihood of receiving a benefit) before it can be recognized in the financial statements. The guidance further prescribes the benefit to be realized assumes a review by tax authorities having all relevant information and applying current conventions. The Company recognizes potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense.

Shipping and Handling

Shipping and handling charges billed to customers are included in sales. The costs of shipping to customers are included in cost of sales in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) 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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Use of Estimates (Continued)

 

The Company’s most significant estimates relate to accounts receivable allowances and inventory reserves.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company has a concentration of credit risk with respect to its trade receivables. The Company provides unsecured and interest-free credit, in the normal course of business, to its customers, and receivables are considered past due based on payment terms with customers. Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and monitors the receivable balances on a regular basis. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded based on management’s evaluation of outstanding receivables. Receivables are written off when all methods of collection have been exhausted and have been within the range of management’s expectations. Management believes its credit acceptance, billing and collection policies are adequate to minimize potential credit risk.

The Company has a concentration of credit risk with respect to the volume of business transacted with certain customers. Two customers accounted for approximately 54%, and 71% of the Company’s sales for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Four customers represented approximately 75% and three customers represented approximately 79% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure requirements about fair-value measurements. The statement, among other things, requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. This includes applying the fair value concept to (i) non-financial assets and liabilities initially measured at fair value in business combinations, (ii) reporting units or non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in conjunction with goodwill impairment testing, (iii) other non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in conjunction with impairment assessments and (iv) asset retirement obligations initially measured at fair value.

The statement established a hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring fair value. This framework defined three levels of inputs to the fair value measurement process and requires that each fair value measurement be assigned to a level corresponding to the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three broad levels of inputs defined by the hierarchy are as follows:

 

    Level 1 Inputs – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date,

 

    Level 2 Inputs – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full-term of the asset or liability and

NOTE 1—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

 

    Level 3 Inputs – unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. These unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (which might include the reporting entity’s own data).

Financial instruments for which disclosure only of fair value is required consist of the following:

 

    Cash and cash equivalents—carrying value approximates fair value due to the short time to maturity.

 

    Notes payable—carrying value approximates fair value based upon current market rates.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The Company recognizes in the consolidated financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the consolidated balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not recognize subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the consolidated balance sheet but arose after the consolidated balance sheet date and before the consolidated financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through May 12, 2014 which is the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

NOTE 6—NOTES PAYABLE (Continued)

 

As part of the March 2013 amendment to the Notes A, B and C discussed above and the line of credit discussed in Note 7, Exit Fees were added, summarized as follows:

 

    For Note A and the line of credit, the Exit Fee is equal to the sum of the Differential Amounts on each interest payment date from the date of amendment through the date of a Change of Control, with the Differential Amount being the difference between the maximum interest rate and the minimum interest rate. The Exit Fee is payable upon occurrence of a Change of Control.

 

    For Note B, the Exit Fee is equal to the sum of a) for the period from October 16, 2007 through and including June, 30 2012, 2.50% per annum on the greater of (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Note (Original Note and the Prior Note) and (ii) 75% of the original principal amount of the Original Note, plus b) for the period from July 1, 2012 through and including the Maturity Date, 8.75% per annum on the greater of (i) 75% of the original principal amount of the Note and (ii) 75% of the original principal amount of the Original Note, plus c) the sum of the Differential Amounts on each Interest Payment Date from the date of amendment through the date of a Change of Control, with the Differential Amount being the difference between the maximum interest rate and the minimum interest rate. The Exit Fee is payable upon occurrence of a Change of Control.

 

    For Note C, the Exit Fee is equal to the amount accrued at a rate of 20% per annum on the outstanding principal of the Original Notes, from the date of issuance thereof upon earlier of a) a Change of Control or b) the repayment of Obligations (other than Exit Fee) and no obligation to advance. Obligations includes the Term A, B, and Revolving Note exit fees as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement. The Exit Fee is payable upon the earlier of an occurrence of a Change of Control or repayment of Obligations.

As the exit fees for Note A, B and line of credit are contingent upon a Change of Control and for Note C contingent upon either a Change of Control or repayment of all Obligations (including the exit fees of the other Notes), they are considered contingent interest payments. As they are contingent, the Company has assessed the probability of payment of the exit fees and has determined it is not likely. A change of control is uncertain and, as a result, no amounts have been accrued for the exit fees. As of December 31, 2013, the contingent interest payment liabilities related to these exit fees are as follows:

NOTE 13—INCOME TAXES (Continued)

 

ASC 740 requires that the tax benefit of net operating losses, temporary differences and credit carryforwards be recorded as an asset to the extent that management assesses that realization is “more likely than not.” Realization of the future tax benefits is dependent on the Company’s ability to generate sufficient taxable income within the carryforward period. Because of the Company’s recent history of operating losses, management believes that recognition of the deferred tax assets arising from the above-mentioned future tax benefits is currently not likely to be realized and, accordingly, has provided a valuation allowance. The valuation allowance increased by $855,934 and $4,719,472 during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards as of December 31, 2012 are as follows:

 

     Amount      Expiration
Years
 

Net operating losses, Federal

     10,061,310         2029-2033   

Net operating losses, State

     11,062,505         2018-2033   

Federal Tax credits,

     172,107         2027-2033   

State Tax credits,

     106,333         no expiration   

The effective tax rate of the Company’s provision for income taxes differs from the federal statutory rate for December 31, 2013 and 2012 principally due to increases in the valuation allowance.

Utilization of the NOL and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to ownership change limitations that may have occurred or that could occur in the future, as required by the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), as amended, as well as similar state provisions. In general, an “ownership change” as defined by the Code results from a transaction or series of transactions over a three-year period resulting in an ownership change of more than 50 percentage points of the outstanding stock of a company by certain stockholders or public groups. Since the Company’s formation, the Company has raised capital through the issuance of capital stock on several occasions which, combined with the purchasing stockholders’ subsequent disposition of those shares, may have resulted in such an ownership change, or could result in an ownership change in the future upon subsequent disposition. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of NOL and tax credit carryforwards before utilization.

The Company has not completed a study to assess whether an ownership change has occurred or whether there have been multiple ownership changes since the Company’s formation due to the complexity and costs associated with such a study and the fact that there may be additional ownership changes in the future. If the Company has experienced an ownership change at any time since its formation, utilization of the NOL or tax credit carryforwards to offset future taxable income and taxes, respectively, would be subject to an annual limitation under the Code, which is determined by first multiplying the value of the Company’s stock at the time of the ownership change by the applicable long-term, tax-exempt rate, and then could be subject to additional adjustments, as required. Any limitation may result in expiration of all or a portion of the NOL carryforwards before utilization.

NOTE 13—INCOME TAXES (Continued)

 

The Company maintains a full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets due to its historical losses and uncertainties surrounding its ability to generate future taxable income to realize these assets.

Due to the existence of the valuation allowance, future changes in the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits and recognizable deferred tax benefits after the completion of an ownership change analysis is not expected to impact its effective tax rate.

NOTE 14—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

NOTE 15—SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In February 2014, the Company’s lender (which is an affiliate of the majority stockholder of the Company) increased the Company’s line of credit from $3,150,000 to $4,150,000. Advances against the increased line in excess of $3,650,000 require the approval of the Investment Committee of the majority stockholder.

In March 2014, the majority stockholder of the Company exchanged 1237.43 shares of Class A voting common stock for an equal number of shares of the Company’s Class B non-voting common stock. In addition, members of the Company’s’ management team entered into subscription agreements for the purchase of 46 shares of the Company’s Class A voting common stock at a price of $1 per share.
