Report on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of AK Environmental, LLC (the “Company”) which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 and the related statements of income, changes in members’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended and the related notes to the financial statements.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Notes to Financial Statements


 

Note 1.

Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of business: AK Environmental, LLC (the Company) is a natural gas pipeline inspection, construction management and environmental consulting firm, primarily servicing the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Southeast United States.  The Company was organized on March 20, 2002 when the Company’s two owners (the Members) contributed capital amounts of $4,000 and $2,600 in exchange for an equity interest of 60% and 40%, respectively. The Company shall not be dissolved until January 1, 2032, unless it is dissolved earlier in accordance with its operating agreement.  On March 21, 2014, the Company’s members sold 100% of their membership interest to NV5 Holdings, Inc. (see Note 7). 

  

A summary of significant accounting policies follows:

 

Use of estimates: The preparation of 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 for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash: The Company maintains its cash balance with one financial institution and utilizes a sweep arrangement. Under this arrangement, available cash balances are applied against and overdrafts are drawn from the Company’s lines of credit. At times, the Company maintains deposits in excess of federal depository insurance limits. The company has not experienced any losses and does not believe such amounts represent significant credit risk.

 

Revenue recognition: The Company provides its services under time and materials contracts. Customers are billed based on hourly rates in accordance with the terms of the individual job contracts and revenue is recognized as applicable based upon time and materials costs actually incurred. Contract costs include all direct labor, consultant costs and direct expenses, and those indirect costs related to the specific performance of the contract. Contract costs are presented in the Company’s statement of income as salaries and wages and sub-consultant services.

 

The Company records expenses reimbursed by customers as revenues in accordance with FASB ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, which requires reimbursed costs to be included in gross revenues.

 

Trade receivable: Receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding invoices. Management determines the necessity of an allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition and current economic conditions. Receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. The Company does not charge interest on past due accounts. The Company does not believe it is necessary to record any provision for an allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2013.

 

Unbilled services on the balance sheet represent revenues recognized in the statement of income for services performed for the year ending December 31, 2013, which were not billed until subsequent to year end.

 

Property and equipment: Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of the individual assets, which range from three to ten years.

 

When property and equipment is retired or sold, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in income. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred and major replacements and betterments are capitalized.

Note 1.

Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

Impairment of long-lived assets: The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine the recoverability of its long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the probability that future estimated undiscounted net cash flows will be less than the carrying amount of the assets. If such estimated cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the long-lived assets, then such assets are written down to their fair value. No impairment losses were recognized during the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company's estimates of anticipated cash flows and the remaining estimated useful lives of long-lived assets could be reduced in the future. As a result, the carrying amount of long-lived assets could be reduced in the future.

 

Guaranteed payments to members: Guaranteed payments to Members are designed to represent reasonable compensation for employee services rendered and are included within salaries and wages in operating expenses on the Company’s statement of income.

 

Advertising: Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense totaled $18,959 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

Fair value of financial instruments: Financial instruments included cash, trade receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and line of credit. Due to the short term or variable rate nature of these instruments, carrying value also approximates fair value.

 

Income tax status: The Company is organized as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes and generally does not incur income taxes. Instead, the Company’s earnings and losses are included in the income tax returns of the members. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal or state income taxes has been included in these financial statements. Income or loss allocated to the Company’s Members for income tax reporting purposes differs from the Company’s income or loss for financial reporting purposes as a result of permanent and temporary differences in the recognition of certain revenue and expense items.

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. Management evaluated the Company’s tax positions and concluded that the Company had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements to comply with the provisions of this guidance.
