4.Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Share

 

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. The number of dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period was determined in accordance with the treasury-stock method. Common equivalent shares consisted of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options and common stock issuable upon the vesting of outstanding, unvested SUAs. Basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the three months and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

 

   Three Months Ended
   March 31,
2018
 March 31,
2017
 Weighted average common shares outstanding, basic  5,492   5,460 
 Dilutive common equivalent shares  64   73 
 Weighted average common shares outstanding, diluted  5,556   5,533 
  Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
  2018 2017 2018 2017
Weighted average common shares outstanding, basic  5,502   5,477   5,497   5,469 
Dilutive common equivalent shares  52   64   55   64 
Weighted average common shares outstanding, diluted  5,554   5,541   5,552   5,533 

The computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018 excludes the effect of the potential exercise of stock awards, including stock options, when the average market price of the common stock is lower than the exercise price of the related options during the period. These stock awards are not included in the computation of diluted income per share because the effect would be antidilutive. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018, the number of antidilutive stock awards excluded from the diluted earnings per share was 84 thousand and 40 thousand, respectively.

6.Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company has financial instruments, such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, which are stated at carrying amounts that approximate fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term debt approximates fair value as the interest rate on the debt approximates the estimated borrowing rate currently available to the Company.

11.Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard’s Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606). The guidance in this update affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (for example, insurance contracts or lease contracts). The guidance in this update supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification.

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the requirements of Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” using the modified retrospective method, which requires the recognition of the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard (if any) as an adjustment to opening retained earnings for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018.  The adoption of Topic 606 did not result in the recognition of a cumulative adjustment to opening retained earnings under the modified retrospective approach, nor did it have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.  The adoption of this topic requires additional disclosures within the notes to the financial statements, as disclosed inSee also Note 13 – “Revenue”.

11.Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118”, which updates the income tax accounting in U.S. GAAP to reflect the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) interpretive guidance released on December 22, 2017, when the Tax Act was signed into law. The Company is currently evaluating the impacts the adoption of this accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

12.Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Effective

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”, which introduces the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous guidance. The new standard establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record an ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. The new standard will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impacts the adoption of this accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income” (Topic 220) Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which will allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for the tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Reform Act) that are stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income. This standard also requires certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. ASU 2018-2, however, does not change the underlying guidance that requires that the effect of a change in tax laws or rates be included in income from continuing operations. ASU 2018-02 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year 2020, with the option to early adopt at any time prior to the effective date. It must be applied either in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Reform Act is recognized. The Company is currently evaluating the impacts the adoption of this accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Testing Revenue

 

Testing revenue is our primary service. This primarily represents drugDrug and alcohol tests for drugs of abuse using hair, performed in ourthe Company’s forensic laboratory in California.California, represents our primary service. Sales to customers are initiated through sales agreements, most of which have standard terms. Most tests are identified through a chain of custody form (“CCF”) and can therefore be uniquely tracked. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of the contract with a customer are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of our service, which occurs at a specific point-in-time. The specific point-in-time is the completion of the test and availability of test results to the customer.  Most tests are completed the same day that the hair specimen is received. Substantially all tests are completed within a few days. As the tests are performed in a forensic laboratory, the exact date and time of each test completion is available and used in the timing of recognition of revenue.

Shipping and Hair Collection Revenue

 

Shipping revenue represents the amount billed to customers related to shipping of the hair specimen and CCF (“sample”) to the Company’s laboratory. Collection revenue represents the amount billed to customers related to the collection of the hair specimen. This collection is done by third parties who have contracted with the Company. Shipping and hair collection revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of the contract with a customer are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of ourthe Company’s service, which occurs at a specific point-in-time. The specific point-in-time is the completion of the test (associated with the shipping or hair collection charge) and availability of test results to the customer.  

 

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expectthe Company expects to receive in exchange for providing services.  As the Company controls the service before transferring to the customer, it is considered a principal in the transaction, and therefore records revenues on gross basis, with shipping and hair collection costs in costs of revenues.

 

Other Revenue

 

Other revenue represents several items including; urine testing performed by other labs, medical review officer charges, legal/testifying services, a retail test which is sent to the laboratory for testing, and other miscellaneous charges. The total of all of these items is approximately 1% of sales. The amounts are generally billed to customers as services are performed, which occurs at a specific point-in-time.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rule 13a-15(b)Evaluation of the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation as of December 31, 2017, under the supervisionDisclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management evaluated, with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Vice President of Finance, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act. AsAct of December 31, 2017, management determined1934, for the three month period ended June 30, 2018.

Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Vice President Finance have concluded that, it had failed to perform a timely and effective risk assessment overbecause of the financial reporting process and failed to maintain adequate documentation of how control activities address the financial statement risks, including the identification of key reports and design of controls in validating the completeness and accuracy of reports utilized in the revenue controls cycle. Accordingly, management determined that this control deficiency constituted a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,described in our 2017 which was not fully remediated as of March 31, 2018. Based on the foregoing, management concluded that the Company'sForm 10-K, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31,June 30, 2018.

However, management does notwe believe that thiswe have designed and implemented the appropriate controls to fully remediate the material weakness resulted in any material misstatement in the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or any previously issued financial statements.

Management will remediate this material weakness by evaluating our control environment and ourweakness. These controls include conducting a risk assessment process, includingand updating the implementationtesting and documentation of certain key reports.  In addition, the Company has hired a third party to review, implement and test the Company’s internal controls. The Company is required to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new processes for a sufficient period of time. Therefore, until the control process and identification andreview is completed, including the testing of key revenue reports.these controls, the material weakness identified will continue to exist.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Other than the actions taken to continue remediation ofremediate the previously reported material weakness related to our control environment, described above, there have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.
