NOTE 4.2.     RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS


In January 2017,June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326). The update changes the impairment model for most financial assets and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The purpose of this ASU is to reduce the costcertain other instruments, including trade and complexity of evaluating goodwill for impairment. It eliminates the need forother receivables, contract assets, held-to-maturity debt securities and loans, and requires entities to calculateuse a new forward-looking expected loss model that will result in the implied fair valueearlier recognition of goodwill by assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all of its assets and liabilitiesallowance for losses. This update, as if that reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. Under this ASU, an entity will perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit's fair value. The new standard isoriginally issued, was effective for fiscal years,annual and interim periods within thosebeginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842) Effective Dates, which deferred the effective dates of these standards for Smaller Reporting Companies until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, however2022. The Company currently expects to continue to qualify as a Smaller Reporting Company, based upon the current SEC definition, and as a result, will be utilizing the deferred elective date. While we have chosen not to do so. The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The new guidance clarifies the classification of certain cash receipts and cash paymentsare in the statementprocess of cash flows, including debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, settlementdetermining the effects of contingent consideration arising from a business combination, insurance settlement proceeds, and distributions from certain equity method investees. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, however we have chosen not to do so. The amendment is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09 Compensation-Stock Compensation - (Topic 718) Improvements to employee share-based payments accounting as part of simplicity initiatives. This update involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Some of the areas for simplification apply only to nonpublic entities. For us, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The amendment has not made a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance may be adopted prospectively or retrospectively and early adoption is permitted.

ASU No. 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for us on January 1, 2018. Early adoption is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method.

NOTE 5.     FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Certain assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are measured in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820-10-05, Fair Value Measurements. FASB ASC Topic 820-10-05 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the disclosure requirements regarding fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities as well as for non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.

The statement requires fair value measurement be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to their fair value measurement. Our derivative financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are all measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

NOTE 8.9.     INCOME TAXES


On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the CARES Act to provide relief from COVID-19. The Company'sCARES Act includes a provision that allows companies to carryback net operating losses (NOL’s) generated in the period 2018 through 2020 to prior years. In conjunction with the disposition of the Core business in 2018, the Company generated a significant amount of taxable income in 2018. Subsequently, the Company generated net losses in 2019 and 2020. For the net losses generated in 2019, the Company previously recorded a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets associated with its NOL carryforwards due to realization of the NOL not being probable under then existing tax law. The CARES Act makes these assets realizable and, as of the date of the CARES Act, the Company has recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $3.7 million associated with the release of the valuation allowance on its Federal NOL carryforward related to 2019. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company also recognized income tax benefits of approximately $1.5 million and $6.4 million, respectively, related to losses before income taxes.

NOTE 12.     GEOGRAPHIC AND SEGMENT INFORMATION


Operating segments are aggregated into reportable segments only if they exhibit similar economic characteristics. In addition to similar economic characteristics, wethe Company also considerconsiders the following factors in determining the reportable segments: the nature of business activities, the management structure directly accountable to ourits chief operating decision maker for operating and administrative activities, availability of discrete financial information and information presented to the Board of Directors and investors. Asset information is not reviewed by the chief operating decision maker by segment and is not available by segment, accordingly, the Company has not presented a measure of assets by segment.


Prior to the first quarter of 2017, we disclosed only one reporting segment. Beginning in 2017, ourThe Company's reportable segments are disclosed as principally organized and managed as three2 operating segments: Core, OEM and Advanced Energy. We adopted reportable segments to align with changes in how we manage our business, review operating performance and allocate resources as a result of the growth in Advanced Energy and the differing behavior of the Core and OEM product lines. The CorporateOEM. "Corporate & Other categoryOther" includes certain unallocated corporate operational, research and development and marketingadministrative costs which were not specifically attributed to any reportable segment. Net assets are shared, therefore, not allocated to the reportable segments. The OEM segment is primarily development and manufacturing contract and product driven, all related expenses are recorded as cost of sales, therefore no segment specific operating expenses are incurred.


Summarized financial information with respect to reportable segments is as follows:

We are an energy-based medical deviceadvanced energy technology company specializingwith a passion for elevating people’s lives through innovative products in developing, manufacturingthe cosmetic and marketingsurgical markets. Known for our innovative Helium Plasma Technology, Apyx is solely focused on bringing transformative solutions to the physicians and patients it serves. Our Helium Plasma Technology is marketed and sold as Renuvion® in the cosmetic surgery market and J-Plasma® in the hospital surgical market. Renuvion® offers plastic surgeons, fascial plastic surgeons and cosmetic physicians a rangeunique ability to provide controlled heat to tissue to achieve their desired results. The J-Plasma® system allows surgeons to operate with a high level of electrosurgical products and technologies, as well as related medical products used in doctor’s offices, surgery centers and hospitals worldwide. Our medical devices are marketed through Bovie’s own well-respected brands (Bovie®, IDS™ and DERMTM) and on a private label basis to distributors throughout the world.precision, virtually eliminating unintended tissue trauma. We also leverage our deep expertise and decades of experience in unique waveforms through OEM agreements with other medical device manufacturers.

We continue to drive sales in our Advanced Energy business by increasing the adoption and utilization of our handpieces in the design, developmentU.S. cosmetic surgery market and manufacturing of electrosurgical equipment by producing equipment for large, well-known medical device manufacturers through original equipment manufacturing (OEM) agreements, as well as start-up companies with the need forfulfilling demand from distributors in our energy based designs.

We are also the developer of J-Plasma; a patented plasma-based surgical product for cutting, coagulation and ablation of soft tissue. J-Plasma utilizes a helium ionization process to produce a stable, focused beam of plasma that provides surgeons with greater precision, minimal invasiveness and an absence of conductive currents through the patient during surgery. The new J-Plasma handpieces with Cool-Coag™ technology deliver the precision of helium plasma energy, the power of traditional monopolar coagulation and the efficiency of plasma beam coagulation - enabling thin-layer ablation and dissection and fast coagulation with a single instrument, minimizing instrument exchange and allowing a surgeon to focus on their patient and their procedures. With Cool-Coag technology, the new J-Plasma handpieces can deliver three distinctly different energy modalities - further increasing the utility and versatility of the J-Plasma system. J-Plasma has been the subject of ten white papers and has been cited therein for its clinical utility in gynecological and plastic surgery procedures.

The majority of our core products are marketed through medical distributors, which distribute to more than 6,000 hospitals, and to doctors and other healthcare facilities. New distributors are contacted through responses to our advertising in international and domestic medical journals and our presence at domestic and international trade shows.

Impact of COVID-19

As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 ("2020 Form 10-K"), an outbreak of a novel strain of the coronavirus, COVID-19, was identified in China and subsequently recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. While the situation shows signs of improvement in certain countries, the COVID-19 outbreak generally continues to severely restrict the level of economic activity around the world. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak the governments of many countries, states, cities and other geographic regions have taken preventative or protective actions, such as imposing restrictions on travel and business operations and advising or requiring individuals to limit or forego their time outside of their homes. Temporary closures of businesses in some jurisdictions were ordered, and numerous other businesses closed permanently. Many other businesses continue to be operated at reduced capacity.

As vaccines have become more available, the number of COVID-19 cases has declined in the United States and various other countries, and economic conditions have improved. However, uncertainty remains regarding the extent, timing, and duration of the pandemic, including the extent to which the availability of these vaccines will positively impact public health conditions and whether new, potentially more contagious variants may pose additional public health risks. The pandemic continues to cause uncertainty and potential economic volatility, including with regard to the pandemic’s various and unpredictable impacts on our customers and our business.
Results
Any future significant reductions in business-related activities could result in further loss of Operationssales and profits and other material adverse effects. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial results, liquidity and cash flows will depend largely on future developments, including new information that may emerge concerning actions taken to contain or prevent further spread of the virus, or its newly forming variants, within the U.S. and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

Overall sales decreasedWhile our revenues were affected by 7.1% or approximately $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, when compared with 2016. Core segment revenue, which consistscontinued impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, starting in the latter half of 2020 we saw strong utilization of our brand name electrosurgical devicesRenuvion® handpieces from existing customers in the U.S., along with shipments to several new customers in our international markets, which helped to offset sluggish global demand for capital equipment. Throughout this event, we continued our efforts to support our customers during this challenging time.

Demand trends, however, for generator adoption continue to remain in varying stages of recovery in the markets we serve. Although the timing of a return to a more normalized economic environment remains uncertain, we remain optimistic with respect to the continued recovery of the cosmetic and plastic surgery market, and the utilization and adoption of our products decreased 3.0% or approximately $0.2 million forglobally.

We source the components used in our products from a variety of suppliers and we have collaborative arrangements with three months ended September 30, 2017, when compared with 2016. The OEM segment consistskey foreign suppliers. At this time our suppliers have experienced no significant production disruptions as a result of proprietary products designed specifically forCOVID-19. However, we have started to experience longer lead times and increased delays in our deliveries from these suppliers as a result of the availability of shipping from third party equipment manufacturers; revenue for this product line decreased 70.2% or approximately $1.2 million forfreight carriers. While we continue to monitor these delays, they have not, to date, had a significant impact on our manufacturing operations, but have resulted in increased inbound shipping costs and the three months ended September 30, 2017, when compared with 2016, duenecessity to a one-time orderincrease levels of our key raw material component inventories..

We continue to closely monitor developments related to COVID-19 that may impact our operations and financial performance, and continue our efforts to support our employees and customers in the comparable period of 2016.

With this goal in mind, we implemented additional training for our sales reps in order to sharpen their ability to engage with our customers virtually. In addition to engaging with existing customers via virtual methods, our sales representatives also continued to target and reach out to prospective customers, and outside the nine months ended September 30, 2017, when compared with 2016. The OEM segment consistsU.S., we continued to monitor the activities of proprietary products designed specifically for third party equipment manufacturers; revenue for this product line decreased 53.3% or approximately $2.3 million forour distributor partners and helped them navigate the nine months ended September 30, 2017, when comparedchallenges they faced as a result of the slower demand they have seen in their respective countries.
•Operating Expenses: Given the uncertainty surrounding the impacts that COVID-19 could have on our business, we took preemptive steps to 2016, duecurtail spending, including implementing hiring restrictions,reducing discretionary spending, reducing capital expenditures, and delaying certain R&D projects and clinical research studies. Taking into account the early signs of improving economic environment and conditions related to a one-time orderCOVID-19, we have started to ease these measures in certain areas. However, we will continue to monitor any future developments related to the comparable periodpandemic and may reinstate them if necessary.

The increase in gross profit margins for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 from the prior year periods is primarily attributable to sales mix between our two segments, with our Advanced Energy segment comprising a higher percentage of total sales, as well as product mix within our Advanced Energy segment. Our continued manufacturing efficiency initiatives and the introduction of newer product models have continued to result in improved margins as we obtain registration, allowing these products to be introduced into the markets we serve. Additionally, the strong sales during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, resulted in reduced product costs as our fixed costs were spread across higher production volumes. This manufacturing efficiency was partially offset by higher inbound shipping costs, as we expedited the sourcing of key component raw material inventories.

During the second quarter of 2020, we reassessed our forecasted product mix due to COVID-19, increased availability of our newer handpiece designs, and earlier than expected completion of product registrations in certain international markets. As a result, certain products were reduced to a lower carrying value, and some components were also written off as it was determined to cease further production on these models. This resulted in a decrease in gross profit of approximately $0.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

On December 13, 2013, we entered into a securities purchase agreement pursuant to which we issued 3,500,000 shares of our newly designated Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock with a stated value of $2.00 per sharebonus expense in 2021 ($1.0 million), stock option expense ($0.3 million) and 5,250,000 warrants to purchase our common stock, at an exercise price of $2.387 per share. We also issued 525,000 warrantshigher headcount ($0.3 million) as compared to the placement agent, of which 94,375 remain outstanding, as of September 30, 2017, and have a strike price of $2.387. The warrants are accounted for as derivative financial instruments at fair value and are re-valued each period. At September 30, 2017, the placement agent warrants were valued at $0.1 million and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we recognized a non-cash gain of $57,000.

On March 17, 2015, we completed transactions under an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) entered into on March 11, 2015 with certain investors (the “Investors”) with respect to which Great Point Partners, LLC acts as investment manager. Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, we issued 3,588,139 shares of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) in exchange for 3,500,000 shares of our Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase up to 5,250,000 shares of our common stocksame period in the aggregate which were previously issued in conjunction with the sale of our Series A 6% Convertible Preferred Stock to the Investors in a December 13, 2013 offering, as well as accrued and unpaid preferred dividends.

On September 20, 2017, 975,639 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were converted into 1,951,278 shares of our common stock.prior year.

Income Taxes

We recorded an income tax expense of $6,000 and $15,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. A valuation allowance is required to be provided to reduce the deferred tax assets to a level which, more likely than not, will be realized. Management evaluated the positive and negative evidence in determining the realizability of the net deferred tax asset. In determining the need for valuation allowance, we reviewed historic operating results, the current period operating results, as well as future income forecasts based on the projections, management concluded that it was not more likely that the Company should realize its net deferred tax assets through future operating results and the reversal of taxable temporary differences. If in the future we determine that we will be able to realize any of the net deferred tax assets, we will make adjustment to the valuation allowance, which would increase our income in the period that the determination is made.

Product Development

We have developed most of our products and product improvements internally. Funds for this development have come primarily from our internal cash flow and equity issuances. We maintain close working relationships with physicians and medical personnel in hospitals and universities who assist in product research and development. New and improved products play a critical role in our sales growth. We continue to emphasize the development of proprietary products and product improvements to complement and expand our existing product lines. Our research and development team members are based in our Clearwater, Florida facility and our facility in Sofia, Bulgaria.

Finally, disagreements or disputes may arise between us and our customers, which could adversely affect production and sales of our products.

We also have collaborative arrangements with three key foreign suppliers under which we request the development of certain items and components and we purchase them pursuant to purchase orders. Our purchase order commitments are never more than one year in duration and are supported by our sales forecasts. The majority of our raw materials are purchased from sole-source suppliers. While we believe we could ultimately procure other sources for these components, should we experience any significant disruptions in this key supply chain, there are no assurances that we could do so in a timely manner which could render us unable to meet the demands of our customers, resulting in a material and adverse effect on our business and operating results.

The lower inventory turn ratio is mainly attributable to an inventory build in support of new, extended and improved product lines.

Critical Accounting Estimates


In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), we have adopted various accounting policies. Our most significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in our report on2020 Form 10-K for, filed with the year ended December 31, 2016, filedSEC on March 10, 2017.31, 2021.


The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Our estimates and assumptions, including those related to inventories, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, legal proceedings, research and development, warranty obligations, product liability, fair valued liabilities, sales returns and discounts, stock basedstock-based compensation and income taxes are updated as appropriate, which in most cases is at least quarterly. We base our estimates on historical experience, or various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances and the results form the basis for making judgments about the reported values of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates.


Estimates are considered to be critical if they meet both of the following criteria: (1) the estimate requires assumptions about material matters that are uncertain at the time the accounting estimates are made and (2) other materially different estimates could have been reasonably made or material changes in the estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Our critical accounting estimates include the following:


Stock-based Compensation

Under our stock option plans, options to purchase common shares of the Company may be granted to employees, officers and directors of the Company by the Board of Directors. We account for stock options in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation, with compensation expense recognized over the vesting period. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes model, which includes a number of estimates that affect the amount of our expense. We have determined that the most critical of these estimates are the estimates of expected life and volatility used in the calculations.

Expected life

For employee stock-based compensation awards, we estimate the expected life of awards utilizing the SEC's simplified method. We utilize this method, as we have not historically granted stock-based compensation awards to employees in sufficient volumes to determine a reasonable estimate of the life of awards. For awards granted to non-employees, we calculate expected life using a combination of past exercise behavior, the contractual term and expected remaining exercise behavior.

Volatility

We determine the volatility by utilizing the historical volatility of our stock over the period of the awards expected life. The SEC allows us to include periods in excess of the useful life if we determine that they provide a more reasonable basis for the volatility of our stock. Additionally, ASC 718-10 allows us to exclude periods from the volatility if they pertain to events or circumstances that in our judgment are specific to us and if the event or transaction is not reasonably expected to occur again during the expected term of the awards. We have not included any additional periods, nor disregarded any periods, in calculating our volatility.

Accounts Receivable Allowance

We maintain a reserve for uncollectible accounts receivable. When evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts, we analyze specific unremitted customer balances for known collectability issues, review historical bad debt experience, customer credit worthiness and economic trends, and we make estimates in connection with establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts, including the future impacts of current trends. Changes in estimates are reflected in the period they are made. If the financial condition of our customers deteriorates, resulting in an inability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

APYX MEDICAL CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued

Inventory reservesObsolescence Allowance


We maintain a reserve for excess and obsolete inventory resulting from the potential inability to sell our products at prices in excess of current carrying costs. The markets in which we operate are highly competitive, with new products and surgical procedures introduced on an ongoing basis. Such marketplace changes may cause our products to become obsolete. We make estimates regarding the future recoverability of the costs of these products and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventories based on historical experience and expected future trends. If actual product life cycles, product demand or acceptance of new product introductions are less favorable than projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required, which would unfavorably affect future operating results.


Long-lived assetsLitigation Contingencies


We review long-lived assets which are heldIn accordance with authoritative guidance, we record a liability in our consolidated financial statements for these actions when a loss is known or considered probable and used, including propertythe amount can be reasonably estimated. If the reasonable estimate of a known or probable loss is a range, and equipment and intangible assets, for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate thatno amount within the carryingrange is a better estimate than any other, the minimum amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Such evaluations compare the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset over its expected useful life and are significantly impacted by estimates of future prices and volumes for our products, capital needs, economic trends and other factors that are inherently difficult to forecast.range is accrued. If the asseta loss is considered to be impaired, we record an impairment charge equal to the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value determined by either a quoted market price, if any, or a value determined by utilizing a discounted cash flow technique.

Derivative liabilities valued at fair value

We generally do not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow risks or market-risks. However, certain financial instruments, such as warrants, which are indexed to our common stock, are classified as liabilities when either (a) the holder possesses rights to net-cash settlement or (b) physical or net-share settlement is not within our control. In such instances, net-cash settlement is assumed for financial accounting and reporting purposes, even when the terms of the underlying contracts do not provide for net-cash settlement. Such financial instruments are initially recorded and continuously carried, at fair value.

Determining the fair value of these instruments involves judgment and the use of certain relevant assumptions including,reasonably possible, but not limited to, interest rate risk, historical volatilityknown or probable, and stock price,can be reasonably estimated, life of the derivative, anti-dilution provisions and conversion/redemption privileges. The use of different assumptions or changes in those assumptions could have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued


Stock-based Compensation

Under our stock option plan, options to purchase common shares of the Company may be granted to key employees, officers and directors of the Company by the Board of Directors. The Company accounts for stock options in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation, with compensation expense amortized over the vesting period based on the trinomial lattice option-pricing model fair value on the grant date, which includes a number of estimates that affect the amount of our expense.

Litigation Contingencies

From time to time, we are exposed to claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business or otherwise and use various methods to resolve these matters in a manner that we believe serves the best interest of the Company and our stockholders. There can be no assurance these actions or other third party assertions will be resolved without costly litigation, or in a manner that is not adverse to our financial position. We do not believe that any of the currently identified claims or litigation matters will have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. However, given uncertainties associated with any litigation, if our assessments prove to be wrong, or if additional information becomes available such that we estimate that there is a possible loss or possible range of loss associated withis disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. In most cases, significant judgment is required to estimate the amount and timing of a loss to be recorded; actual results may differ from these contingencies, then we would record the minimum estimated liability, which could materially impact our results of operations, financial position and cash flows.estimates.


Income Taxes


The provision for income taxes includes federal, foreign, state and local income taxes currently payable and those deferred because of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted marginal tax rates. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on the changes in the asset or liability from period to period.


As a result of historical losses, and our expectation to continue to generate losses in the near future, we recorded a valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets. Exclusive of the carryback provisions of the CARES Act and the associated income tax benefit recognized in 2020, we do not anticipate recording an income tax benefit related to deferred tax assets. We have net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards available in certain jurisdictions to reduce future taxable income. Future tax benefits for net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards are recognized towill reassess the extent that realization of these benefits is considered more likely than not. This determination is based on the expectation that related operations will be sufficiently profitable or variousdeferred tax businessassets each reporting period and other planning strategies will enable us to utilize the operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. We cannot be assured that we will be able to realize thesereduce the valuation allowance to the extent the financial results of continuing operations improve, and it becomes more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realizable. As management expects the Company to continue to generate losses in the foreseeable future after 2020, we will continue to record a valuation allowance on the net deferred tax benefitsassets balance as of June 30, 2021.

We assess the financial statement impact of an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken on an income tax return at the largest amount that future valuation allowancesis more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be required. Torecognized in the extent that available evidence raises doubt about the realization of a deferred income tax asset, a valuation allowance is established.

It is our policy to provide for uncertain tax positions and the related interest and penalties based upon management’s assessment of whether a tax benefitfinancial statements unless it is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. To the extent that the probable tax outcome of these uncertain tax positions changes, such changes in estimate will impact the income tax provision in the period in which such determination is made. At September 30, 2017, we believe we have appropriately accounted for any unrecognized tax positions. To the extent we prevail in matters for which a liability for an unrecognized tax benefit is established or we are required to pay amounts in excess of the liability, our effective tax rate in a given financial statement period may be affected.being sustained.

Since inception, we have been subject to tax by both federal and state taxing authorities. Until the respective statutes of limitations expire (which may be as much as 20 years while we have unused NOL’s), we are subject to income tax audits in the jurisdictions in which we operate.

Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concludedare designed to ensure that as of the end of that period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in providing reasonable assurance that (a) the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we filedfile or submittedsubmit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’sSecurities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and (b)that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEOthe Chief Executive Officer and CFO,Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control overOver Financial Reporting


There were noWe rely extensively on information systems to manage our business and summarize and report our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In 2020, we began the implementation of a new global enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system, which replaced much of our existing core financial systems in the first quarter of 2021. The ERP system is designed to accurately maintain our financial records, enhance the flow of financial information, improve data management and provide timely information to our management team.

As a result of this implementation, certain internal controls over financial reporting have been automated, modified or implemented to address the new environment associated with this type of system. While we believe that this new system will strengthen our internal controls, there are inherent risks in implementing any new system, and we will continue to evaluate these control changes inas part of our assessment of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f)) during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.throughout 2021.

Any disruption in responseour suppliers’ operations, or timely availability of shipments from our third party freight carriers, could disrupt our production schedule and our ability to Item 1Aprovide product to Part 1our customers in a timely manner

Our operations and ability to maintain production is dependent upon our suppliers delivering sufficient quantities of Form 10-K.components and raw materials on time to manufacture our products and meet our production schedules. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted worldwide supply chains and the ability to obtain sufficient amounts of component parts, while disruptions and delays in the ability of our third party freight carriers to transport these items to our manufacturing facilities also continues to be a challenge. If the situation worsens, these negative impacts on our supply chain could have a material adverse effect on our business.


Any shortage of components or raw materials could cause us to not be able to meet customer demand, to alter production schedules, to delay product launch schedules, or to suspend production entirely, which could cause a loss of revenues, which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations.
