Note2RecentAccountingPronouncements

 

There haveIn May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) for revenue recognition for contracts, superseding the previous revenue recognition requirements, along with most existing industry-specific guidance. The guidance requires an entity to review contracts in five steps: 1) identify the contract, 2) identify performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price, and 5) recognize revenue. The new standard will result in enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued guidance approving a one-year deferral, making the standard effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted only for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance to clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations for reporting revenue gross rather than net, with the same deferred effective date. In April 2016, the FASB issued guidance to clarify the identification of performance obligations and licensing arrangements. In May 2016, the FASB issued guidance addressing the presentation of sales and other similar taxes collected from customers, providing clarification of the collectability criterion assessment, as well as clarifying certain transition requirements.

The Company has been no developmentsanalyzing the new standard and the related ASU's across all revenue streams to recently issuedevaluate the impact of the new standard on revenue contracts. This includes reviewing current accounting standards, includingpolicies and practices to identify potential differences that would result from applying the expected datesrequirements under the new standard. The Company is completing contract evaluations and validating the results of adoptionapplying the new revenue guidance and estimated effects on the Company’s condensed financial statements, from those disclosedis in the Company’s 2015 Annual Reportprocess of finalizing its accounting policies, drafting the new disclosures, quantifying the potential financial adjustment and completing its evaluation of the impact of the accounting and disclosure requirements on Form 10-K.business processes, controls and systems. Full implementation will be completed by the end of 2017. The Company expects to adopt the new standard using the modified retrospective approach, under which the cumulative effect of initially applying the new guidance is recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the first quarter of 2018.

RevenueRecognition

The Company is engaged in research and development contracts with the federal government to develop certain technology to be utilized by the U.S. Department of Defense (“DoD”). The contracts are cost plus fixed fee contracts and revenue is recognized on the basis of such measurement of partial performance as will reflect reasonably assured realization or delivery of completed articles. Fees earned under the Company’sCompany’s contracts may also be accrued as they are billable, under the terms of the agreements, unless such accrual is not reasonably related to the proportionate performance of the total work or services to be performed by the Company from inception to completion. Under the terms of certain contracts, fixed fees are not recognized until the receipt of full payment has become unconditional, that is, when the product has been delivered and accepted by the federal government. Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts as work is performed. The Company’s backlog includes future Adaptive Diagnostic Electronic Portable Testset(“ADEPT”) units to be developed and delivered to the federal government.

The Company recognizes revenue as it relates to the license of software when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection is probable. The sale and/or license of software products and technology is deemed to have occurred when a customer either has taken possession of or has access to take immediate possession of the software or technology. Software license agreements include post-contract customer support ("PCS"). For the Company’sCompany’s software and software-related multiple element arrangements, where customers purchase both software related products and software related services, the Company uses vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value for software and software-related services to separate the elements and account for them separately. VSOE exists when a company can support what the fair value of its software and/or software-related services is based on evidence of the prices charged when the same elements are sold separately. VSOE of fair value is required, generally, in order to separate the accounting for various elements in a software and related services arrangement. The Company has established VSOE of fair value for the majority of the PCS, professional services, and training. Given the limited number of sales related to this software, and the fact that the Company does not sell the PCS element separately, there is no VSOE currently available to bifurcate the PCS element from the contract.  In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 985-605-25-10a,985-605-25-10a, the fees earned from sale of licenses to which the only undelivered element is the PCS, are recognized ratably over the life of the contract. Revenues from the sale of software licenses and maintenance for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 2017 and 20152016 were $10,695$10,000 and $12,000$10,695 and $72,196$22,500 and $12,000,$72,196, respectively. At September 30, 2016 2017 and December 31, 2015, 2016, deferred revenues amounted to $18,750$30,000 and $24,000,$7,500, respectively.

Product Portfolio

Adaptive Diagnostic Electronic Portable Testset (ADEPT®)(ADEPT). ADEPT is an automated maintenance workstation designed to significantly reduce the time required to align the AN/SPY-1 Radar System aboard U.S. Navy Aegis cruisers and destroyers, while optimizing system performance and readiness. ADEPT Systems are currently deploying on all Aegis CG and DDG platforms to support the AN/SPY1 radar system. ADEPT represents an innovative approach to Navy shipboard maintenance, integrating modular instrumentation cards in a rugged enclosure with an onboard computer, input and output devices, networking hardware, removable hard drives, and a touch-screen display. A custom software application provides the user interface and integrates the hardware with a database that stores user information, instrument readings, maintenance requirements, and training aids. ADEPT is designed to be adapted to other complex shipboard systems, and provide integrated distance support capabilities for remote diagnostics and troubleshooting by shore-based Navy experts.

Since the system uses commercial instrument case and modules, ADEPT units can be modified to support both preventative maintenance and condition-based maintenance of other radars and complex electronic systems in military or commercial applications. In that regard, we have a service contract with the U.S. Navy to extend ADEPT to a second U.S. Navy radar system, the SPS-49. These services are expected to assist in optimizing performance for the Ballistic Missile Defense Mission. As of September 30, 2016,the date of this report, we have delivered a total of 189 194 ADEPT units.

 


 

Adaptive Distance Support Sensor Suite (ADSSS). In 2013, we started development of ADSSthe ADEPT Distance Support Sensor Suite, or ADSSS, for the Navy’s Littoral Combat Ship (“LCS”). The LCS is the U.S. Navy’s latest combat warship. ADSSS is a network-enabled system that can be configured to monitor multiple shipboard systems and report maintenance data onshore for further analysis to detect trends and predict failures. ADSSS provides an open architecture approach with industry standard hardware, and cybersecurity compliant software to acquire and process system operational and maintenance data. ADSSS fully automates the capture of system operation, environment and maintenance data to provide unattended operation. The system monitors key parameters and sends alert notifications when parameters move out of tolerance.

A pilot version of ADSSS has been deployed on the LCS Class since 2014. Development of the production system is ongoing and initial shipboard testing is planned for late 2016.was completed in 2016. In July 2017, we installed the first ADSSS system on the LCS Class. We expect ADSSS to be used on both variants of the LCS, currently planned to be at least 32 ships. ADSSS, with its remote monitoring and prognostics capabilities, has also generated interest in other ship classes, including Aegis, and we are currently pursuing several related opportunities.

 

Diagnostic Profiler®. Profiler. The Diagnostic Profiler®Profiler is an integrated development environment for developing diagnostic capabilities used in maintenance, embedded diagnostics and troubleshooting applications. The software provides diagnostic services to its host application, including fault call-outs, suggested “next best” test to further isolate faults, and direct maintenance actions. When additional faults are identified, the software prioritizes the fault call-outs by probability. The use of the diagnostic profiler eliminates the need for the development and maintenance of diagnostic flow charts and hard-coded text sequences. This reduces the effort required to correct bugs and design changes and over the life of the system, could result in significant cost savings.

 

Prognostics Framework®. Framework. Prognostics Framework®Framework is an analysis software for framework that implements real-time prognostics, diagnostics and status monitoring to support embedded prognostic applications, health management systems and condition-based maintenance applications. The Prognostics Framework software institutes an information framework that organizes relevant data related to: (i) the condition of the system; (ii) the system’s ability to perform required functions over specific time intervals; and (iii) the need for maintenance actions and repair parts. The Prognostics Framework has been used to implement a complete health management system on one of the first radar systems to require prognostics as a key element of its overall solutions. Other potential applications include complex computer networks, power generators, power supply, cooling and environmental systems.

In addition, our contracts withdestroyers in the Federal government contain unfavorable termination provisions and are subject to audit and modification.U.S. Navy.

 


 

Key Performance Indicator

 

As substantially all of our revenue is derived from contracts with the Federalfederal government, our key performance indicator is the dollar volume of contracts and delivery orders awarded to us.us under our IDIQ contracts. Increases in the number and value of contracts awarded will generally result in increased revenues in future periods and, assuming relatively stable variable costs associated with our fulfilling such contracts,awards, increased profits in future periods. The timing of such awards is uncertain as we sell to Federalfederal government agencies where the process of obtaining such awards can be lengthy and at times uncertain. ContinuedAs the majority of our revenue in 2016, and expected revenue in 2017, is or will be from sales of ADEPT units and ADSSS systems under our IDIQ contracts, continued generation of taskdelivery orders and our ability to expand the marketsmarket and potential customerscustomer base for our ADEPT and ADSSS productsunits will be a key indicator of future revenue.revenue. ADEPT units must be serviced and calibrated every two years. Accordingly, as we continue to increase the installed base of ADEPT units and expand the units to other radar systems, we expect to generate future recurring maintenance and service revenue.

 

Outlook

 

Our strategy for continued growth is based on continuing expansion of our defense business, plus new initiatives to marketapply our advanced maintenance technology toin commercial markets. First,With regard to the defense industry, we expect to continue expanding our technology base, backlog and revenue by continuing our active participation in the DoD SBIR program and bidding on projects that fall within our areas of expertise. These areas include electronic systems engineering and integration, radar systems engineering, combat/C4I (Command, Control, Communications, Computers & Intelligence) systems engineering, and communications engineering. We believe that we can utilizeuse the technology and intellectual property developed under our various SBIR awards to develop proprietary products such as ADEPT, with broad appeal in both the government and commercial marketplace. Our state-of-the-art test equipment can be used by many commercial and governmental customers such as the FAA, radio and television stations, cell phone stations, and airlines.markets. Second, we will continue to pursue SBIR projects with the Department of Homeland Security, the U.S. Navy, and other government agencies. Third, we believe that through our marketing of products, such as ADEPT, we will develop key relationships with prime defense contractors. Our strategy is to develop these relationships into long-term, key subcontractor roles on future major defense programs awarded to these prime contractors.

 

In addition,With regard to commercial markets, our new commercialDiagnostics Profiler and Prognostics Framework software offerings complement our hardware products and allow us to provide complete hardware/software solutions for advanced maintenance applications. Current customers for these systems include major multinational corporations such as HP, which recently extended our Diagnostic Profiler software support with for a fifth year. We continue to receive repeat orders from these customers to support their applications. We plan to provide “condition-based maintenance” systems for applications such as FAA radar surveillance and support systems, power distribution and utilities infrastructure, commercial shipping, cooling and environmental systems, and other “complex distributed systems.” Customerssystems” to commercial customers. In that regard, we are currently developing a condition-based maintenance solution for these systems include major multinational corporations.heating ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (HVAC) equipment based on our proprietary Prognostics Framework solution. We have received several repeat orders from these customers and continuedeployed two active pilot systems that are providing key maintenance data on a daily basis to support their applications.service technicians.

 

In 2016,2017, our primary strategic focus is to continue as a premium provider of R&D and product development services to the defense industry, generate multiple delivery orders under our two IDIQ contracts, extend ADEPT and ADSSS to additional combat systems and ship classes, and expand our commercial business through marketing and sales of our Prognostics Framework and Diagnostic Profiler software products. From an operational prospective, we expectWe will also seek to focus substantial resources on generating purchase orders under the IDIQ contracts for ADSSSgenerate incremental revenue through providing light assembly and ADEPT units, expanding ADEPTproduction services to support other radar systemscommercial customers at our manufacturing and exploring commercialization opportunities. As the installed base increases, we expect additional and recurring revenue for calibration and other maintenance and support. In January 2014, we were awarded a contract to extend the ADEPT system to a second U.S. Navy radar system, the SPS-49, which is expected to assistdepot center in optimizing performance for the Ballistic Missile Defense Mission.Largo, Florida.

 

Over the longer term, we intend to further develop advanced maintenance technologies and implement these technologies in products for deployment in defense applications and to expand into additional commercial applications. We believe that many of our core capabilities, remote monitoring, rugged systems, predictive maintenance and communications expertise, are applicable to other industries that work with complex distributed systems, such as utilities, communications and transportation systems.systems, and building maintenance. We are currently in discussions with certain industry participants regarding this initiative.

 

During the past two fiscal years, the combination of spending caps, discretionary spending cuts, sequestration and further proposed reductions in defense spending has caused, and may in the future continue to cause, delays in funding certain projects. This may negatively impact our revenues and profits.

 

Changes to Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our critical accounting policies and estimates are set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.2016. As of September 30, 2016,2017, there have been no changes to such critical accounting policies and estimates.

Pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction, we made aggregate cash payments of $544,017, issued 5,173,973 shares of common stock which resulted in the net issuance of 3,089,806 additional shares of common stock, and eliminated $2,955,433 of aggregate liquidation preferences applicable to our previously outstanding shares of preferred stock.

 

In order to pursue strategic opportunities, obtain additional SBIR contracts, or acquire strategic assets or businesses, we may need to obtain additional financing or seek strategic alliances or other partnership agreements with other entities. In order to raise any such financing, we anticipate considering the sale of additional debt or equity securities under appropriate market conditions. There can be no assurance, assuming we successfully raise additional funds or enter into business alliances, that we will remain profitable or continue to generate positive cash flow.

 

Off-BalanceSheetArrangements

 

As of September 30, 2016,2017, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partners, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, established for the purpose of facilitating off- balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.
