Independent Auditor’s Report

 

To the Board of Directors

Henderson Enterprises Group, Inc. and Subsidiary

Manchester, Iowa

 

Report on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Henderson Enterprises Group, Inc. and Subsidiary which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years 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 consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits 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 consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements.

 

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

 

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Henderson Enterprises Group, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Note 1.                                 Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of business: Henderson Enterprises Group, Inc. (Company) is headquartered in Manchester, Iowa. The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Henderson Products, Inc., is engaged in the manufacturing, installation and selling of heavy duty truck equipment in the North American municipal and construction markets.

 

Accounting 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 amount 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 during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Significant estimates: The allowance for doubtful accounts, recoverability of long-term assets and valuation of goodwill, self-insurance and obsolete inventory involve certain estimates made by management. These estimates are reviewed by management routinely and it is reasonably possible that circumstances that existed at December 31, 2013, may change in the near-term future and that effect could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

 

A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies are as follows:

 

Principles of consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Henderson Products, Inc. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

 

Accounts receivables: Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously written off are recorded when received. A trade receivable is considered to be past due if the invoice is outstanding past the stated due date. The provision for bad debts charged to expenses was $53,521 and $41,966 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Inventories: Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.

 

Property and equipment: Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

 

 

 

Years

 

 

 

 

 

Building and improvements

 

40 years

 

Vehicles

 

3 - 5 years

 

Machinery and equipment

 

3 - 10 years

 

Office furniture and equipment

 

10 years

 

 

Revenue recognition policy: Revenue is recognized at the time of shipment. Service revenue is recognized when the service is performed. Shipping and handling charges to customers are included in revenue. Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of goods sold.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Note 1.                                 Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

Estimated warranty claims: The Company sells its products with a warranty that provides for repairs and replacements of any defective parts for a period of one year after delivery to the original user or 18 months after the actual invoice whichever comes first. At the time of the sale, the Company accrues an estimate of the cost of providing the warranty based on prior experience.

 

Changes in the Company’s product warranty liability for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

Income tax matters: Deferred income taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. The temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination, if any. With a few exceptions, the Company is not subject to U.S. federal, or state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010. As of and for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no uncertain tax positions that are required to be recorded as a liability.

 

Stock-based compensation:  The Company has a stock-based employee compensation plan, which is more fully described in Note 12. The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with Compensation-Stock Compensation. The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of those instruments and recorded compensation expense over the related vesting period.

 

Reclassification:  Certain items on the consolidated balance sheet for the year ending December 31, 2012 were reclassified with no effect on the consolidated statement stockholders’ equity to be consistent with the classification used on the December 31, 2013 financial statements.

 

Subsequent events:  The Company has evaluated subsequent events through March 10, 2014, the date on which the financial statements were available to be issued. Management has determined that no events or transactions have occurred through that date that required additional recognition of disclosure in the financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Note 1.                                 Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

Asset impairment assessments:  The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used, including, but not limited to, capital assets and intangible assets, when events and circumstances warrant such a review. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flow from such asset is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss would be recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value would be determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Losses on long-lived assets to be disposed of are determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost to dispose.

 

Goodwill:  The Company records as goodwill the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Provision of Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, prescribes a two-step process for impairment testing of goodwill, which is performed annually, as well as when an event triggering impairment may have occurred. The first step tests for impairment, while the second step, if necessary, measures the impairment. The Company has elected to perform its annual analysis as of December 31 each year. No indicators of impairment were indentified for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

 

 

 

2013

Balance, ending

 

$

$

7,105,133

 

 

Other intangibles:  The Company classifies intangible assets as definite-lived or indefinite-lived intangible assets. Definite-lived intangibles include customer list, trade name and trademarks, and debt issuance costs. Customer list, non-compete and trade name and trademarks are amortized over the estimated useful life using a method that reflects an appropriate allocation of the costs of the assets to earnings in proportion to the amount of economic benefits obtained by the Company in each reporting period. The determination of the expected life depends upon the use and underlying characteristics of the intangible asset. Customer relationship and patent and technology are amortized on a double declining basis. Debt issuance costs are amortized over the life of the debt agreements based on the interest method. The Company periodically reviews the appropriateness of the amortization periods related to the definite-lived assets. These assets are stated at amortized cost.

 

The following intangibles are being amortized over the periods indicated below:

This statement introduces an accounting alternative for private companies that simplifies and reduces the costs associated with the subsequent accounting for goodwill. While the statement is not effective until annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, early adoption is permitted. As such, private companies may elect the accounting alternative to account for goodwill in their 2013 financial statements as long as those statements have not yet been made available for issuance. The Company is currently evaluating which option it will utilize in its consolidated financial statements.
