Note 2 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Revenue Recognition

The core principle of revenue recognition under accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America (GAAP) is that the Company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

The Company's revenue on the majority of its customer contracts is recognized at a point in time, generally upon shipment of products.

To achieve that core principle, the Company applies the following steps:

1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

The Company designs, manufactures and distributes various types of microelectronic circuits, optoelectronics, and sensors and displays. The Company’s products are used as components and assemblies in a broad range of military, space, medical and industrial systems, including aircraft instrumentation and navigation systems, satellite systems, power supplies, electronic controls, computers, medical devices, and high-temperature (200^o C) products.

The Company’s revenues are from purchase orders and/or contracts with customers associated with manufacture of products. We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.

2.  Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

The majority of the Company’s purchase orders or contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation, the shipment of products.

3. Determine the transaction price.

The transaction price reflects the Company’s expectations about the consideration it will be entitled to receive from the customer at a fixed price per unit shipped based on the terms of the contract or purchase order with the customer. To the extent our actual costs vary from the fixed price that was negotiated, we will generate more or less profit or could incur a loss.

4.  Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

The Company’s transaction price is the fixed price per unit per each delivery upon shipment.

5.  Recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

This performance obligation is satisfied when control of the product is transferred to the customer, which occurs upon shipment or delivery. The Company receives purchase orders for products to be delivered over multiple dates that may extend across reporting periods. The Company accounting policy treats shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost. The Company invoices for each delivery upon shipment and recognizes revenues at the fixed price for each distinct product delivered when transfer of control has occurred, which is generally upon shipment.

For certain contracts under which the Company produces products with no alternative use and for which the Company has an enforceable right to payment during the production cycle, the Company recognizes revenue for the cost incurred of work in process plus a margin at the end of each period and records a contract asset (unbilled receivable). The majority of these products are shipped weekly and monthly to the customers and the contracts require us to manage and limit the level of work in process to meet the scheduled delivery dates.

In addition, the Company may have a contract or purchase order to provide a non-recurring engineering service to a customer. These contracts are reviewed, and performance obligations are determined and we recognize revenue at the point in time in which each performance obligation is fully satisfied.

Receivables, net, Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and customer advances and deposits (deferred revenue) on the Condensed Balance Sheets. 

Receivables, net, contract assets and contract liabilities were as follows:

Receivables, net, Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

(Dollars in thousands)

There was $103,000546,000 of revenue recognized in fiscal year 20222023 that was included in the deferred revenue liability balance at the beginning of the fiscal year.

Contract costs

The Company does not have material incremental costs to obtain a contract in the form of sales commissions or bonuses. The Company incurs other immaterial costs to obtain and fulfill a contract; however, the Company has elected the practical expedient under ASC 340-40-24-4 to recognize all incremental costs to obtain a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period is one year or less.

Leases

In the first quarter of 2020, the Company entered into a three (3) year lease extension on the property that has been leased on a year to year basis. As a result, we recognized $165,000 for operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets in accordance with ASC 842. The Company had an operating lease expense of $40,00014,000 for the first ninethree months of 20222023 and $37,00013,000 for the first ninethree months of 2021.2022. The Company used an estimated incremental borrowing rate of 3.25% representative of the rate of interest that the company would have to pay to borrow on the Company’s line of credit. The remaining lease term is six months.

The Undiscounted Future Minimum Lease Payments consist of the following at:

Short-Term Investmentsmonth to month.

The Company had no short-term investments at August 27, 2022 or November 30, 2021. Short-term investments consist of certificates of deposits with maturities greater than 90 days. These investments are reported at historical cost, which approximates fair value. All highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less are classified as cash equivalents.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value and include material, labor and manufacturing overhead. All inventories are valued using the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method of inventory valuation. The Company determines the need to write inventory down to the lower of cost or net realizable value via an analysis based on the usage of inventory over a three year period and projected usage based on current backlog.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method the Company records deferred income taxes for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. The resulting deferred tax liabilities and assets are adjusted to reflect changes in tax law or rates in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company records a liability for an unrecognized tax benefit for a tax position that is notnot “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained.  The Company did not record any liability for uncertain tax positions as of August 27, 2022February 25, 2023 or November 30, 2021.2022.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost, and depreciation is provided using the straight-line method at rates based upon the following estimated useful lives (in years) of the assets:

The Company assesses long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) ASC 360-10-35, Property, Plant and Equipment – Subsequent Measurement. When events or circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired, an assessment is performed. The estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset are compared to the asset’s net book value to determine if a write down to market value less cost to sell is required.

Construction in progress relates to multiple capital projects ongoing during the year ended November 30, 20212022 and the ninethree months ended August 27, 2022,February 25, 2023, including the construction of the new manufacturing facility. Construction in progress also includes interest and fees on debt that are directly related to the financing of the Company’s capital projects.

Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Improvements which extend the useful lives of property, plant, and equipment are capitalized.

Research and Development Costs

Costs for the design and development of new products are expensed as incurred.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares. For the three months ended August 27,February 25, 2023 and February 26, 2022, and August 28, 2021, the Company had no dilutive potential common stock instruments.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 3 NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. The ASU requires the use of an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost, in which companies will be required to estimate the lifetime expected credit loss and record an allowance to offset the amortized cost basis, resulting in a net presentation of the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for Smaller Reporting Companies, including interim periods within those fiscal years and requires a modified-retrospective approach to adoption. The Company believes that adopting ASU 2016-13 will have no material impact on the financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 4 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The Company had no financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of August 27, 2022February 25, 2023 or November 30, 2021.2022.  The fair value of financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their carrying amount based on the short maturity of these instruments.

The Company measures its long-term debt at fair value, which approximates book value as the long-term debt bears market rates of interestinterest.

There were no nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis August 27, 2022February 25, 2023 and November 30, 2021.2022.

Note 5 COMMITMENTS

The Company obtained a commercial real estate construction loan for the construction of a new 76,000 square foot manufacturing center on the 9.2 acres of land in Garland, Texas that the Company has purchased. On March 26, 2021, the Company (acting as borrower) entered into a Construction Loan Agreement (the “loan agreement”) with Frost Bank (“Frost”) (acting as lender).

Note 6 EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the respective periods. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares. For the ninethree months ended August 27,February 25, 2023 and February 26, 2022, and August 28, 2021, the Company had no dilutive potential common stock instruments.

Note 7 SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Note 8 EMPLOYEE RETENTION CREDIT UNDER THE CARES ACT

The CARES Act, passed by Congress on March 27, 2020, contained the employee retention credit (ERC), a refundable payroll tax credit to employers that have experienced hardship in their operations due to COVID-19. The CARES Act was amended and extended on December 27, 2020 by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (the “CAA”) and in March 2021, the Internal Revenue Code was amended by the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 to provide new employee retention credit provisions designed to promote employee retention and hiring.

This ERC is a fully refundable tax credit for employers equal to 70 percent of qualified wages that eligible employers pay their employees. This ERC applies to qualified wages paid after December 2020 and before January 1, 2022.

As a result, the Company has determined that it qualified for a $920,299 in employee retention credits during the first quarter of 2021, which the Company recognized as other income and recorded in other receivables for the refund claimed in the third quarter of 2022. The ERC impact was included in the Company’s fiscal year 2021 tax return.

Other technologies include light emitting and light sensitive materials and products, including light emitting diodes and silicon phototransistors, and electronic integration used in the Company’s optoelectronic components and assemblies.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions and factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Note 2 to the Financial Statements in the Quarterly Report Form 10-Q for the quarter ended August 27, 2022,February 25, 2023, describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The core principle of revenue recognition under accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America (GAAP) is that the Company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company’s revenue on the majority of its customer contracts are recognized at a point in time, generally upon shipment of products. The application of GAAP related to the measurement and recognition of revenue requires us to make judgments and estimates. Specifically, the determination of whether revenues related to our revenue contracts should be recognized over time or at a point in time, as these determinations impact the timing and amount of our reported revenues and net income. Other significant judgments include the estimation of the point in the manufacturing process at which we are entitled to receive payment, as well as the progress of the job order to completion in order to determine the amount of consideration earned for contractual revenue recognized over time.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on our assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and the aging of the accounts receivable. If there is a deterioration of a major customer’s credit worthiness or actual defaults are higher than our historical experience, our estimates of the recoverability of amounts due us could be adversely affected.

Inventory purchases and commitments are based upon future demand. If there is a sudden and significant decrease in demand for our products or there is a higher risk of inventory obsolescence because of changing customer requirements, we may be required to increase our inventory allowances and our gross margin could be adversely affected.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. If we were to determine we would not be able to realize all or part of the deferred tax asset in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be necessary which would reduce our net income for that period.

Depreciable and useful lives estimated for property and equipment are based on initial expectations of the period of time these assets will provide benefit. Changes in circumstances related to a change in our business or other factors could result in these assets becoming impaired, which could adversely affect the value of these assetsassets.
