NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JULY 31, 20222023

 

Note 1:Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s April 30, 20222023 annual report on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other quarter or for the full year.

 

Accounting Estimates—The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions including the carrying value of assets. The estimates and assumptions result in approximate rather than exact amounts.

 

Significant Accounting Policies — The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are disclosed in our Annual Report, and there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended July 31, 2022.2023.

Prior Period Financial Statement Adjustment – In connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we identified an immaterial misstatement to our financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report. The misstatement is related to a difference in deferred taxes on depreciation for a few years and up through the year ended April 30, 2022. In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletins No. 99 (“SAB No. 99”) Topic 1.M, “Materiality” and SAB No. 99 Topic 1.N “Considering the Effects of Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in the Current Year Financial Statements,” we evaluated the misstatement and determined that the related impact was not consequential to our financial statements for any annual or interim period for fiscal 2022, any other prior period, nor would the cumulative impact of correcting the misstatement be consequential to our results of operations and equity for the fiscal and interim periods of 2023.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements — There are no new accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

Marketable securities that are classified as equity securities are carried at fair value on the balance sheets with changes in fair value recorded as an unrealized gain or (loss) in the statements of income in the period of the change. Upon the disposition of a marketable security, the Company records a realized gain or (loss) on the Company’s statements of income.

 

The Company evaluates all marketable securities for other-than temporary declines in fair value, which are defined as when the cost basis exceeds the fair value for approximately one year. The Company also evaluates the nature of the investment, cause of impairment and number of investments that are in an unrealized position. When an “other-than-temporary” decline is identified, the Company will decrease the cost of the marketable security to the new fair value and recognize a real loss. The investments are periodically evaluated to determine if impairment changes are required. As a result of this standard, no impairment loss was recorded for the quarters ended July 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively.

The Company’s investments are actively traded in the stock and bond markets. Therefore, either a realized gain or loss is recorded when a sale happens. For the quarter ended July 31, 20222023, the Company had sales of equity securities which yielded gross realized gains of $197,000105,000 and gross realized losses of $267,000218,000. For the same period, sales of debt securities did not yield any gross realized gains, but gross realized losses of $no5,000t were recorded. During the quarter ending July 31, 2022, the Company recorded gross realized gains and losses on equity securities of $197,000 and $267,000, respectively, while sales of debt securities did not yield any gross realized gains, but gross realized losses of $29,000 were recorded. During the quarter ending July 31, 2021, the Company recorded gross realized gains and losses on equity securities of $238,000 and $8,000, respectively, while sales of debt securities did not yield any gross realized gains, but gross realized losses of $10,000 were recorded. The gross realized loss numbers include would include the impaired figures listed in the previous paragraph.paragraph if there happened to be any.

 

The following table shows the investments with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be “other-than-temporarily impaired”, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at July 31, 20222023 and April 30, 2022,2023, respectively.

Municipal Bonds

 

The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in municipal bonds were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. Because the Company has the ability to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at July 31, 20222023 and April 31, 2022.2023.

 

Marketable Equity Securities and REITs

 

The Company’s investments in marketable equity securities and REITs consist of a wide variety of companies. Investments in these companies include growth, growth income, and foreign investment objectives. The individual holdings have been evaluated, and due to management’s plan to hold on to these investments for an extended period, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at July 31, 20222023 and April 30, 2022.2023.

Note 6:Retirement Benefit Plan

 

On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the George Risk Industries, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan is a defined contribution savings plan designed to provide retirement income to eligible employees of the Company. The Plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. It is funded by voluntary pre-tax and Roth (taxable) contributions from eligible employees who may contribute a percentage of their eligible compensation, limited and subject to statutory limits. Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan when they have attained the age of 21 and completed one thousand hours of service in any plan year with the CompanyCompany.. Upon leaving the Company, each participant is 100% vested with respect to the participants’ contributions while the Company’s matching contributions are vested over a six-year period in accordance with the Plan document. Contributions are invested, as directed by the participant, in investment funds available under the Plan. Matching contributions of approximately $16,000 and $17,000 were paid in each of the quarters ending July 31, 20222023 and 20212022, respectively.

Note 7:Fair Value Measurements

 

The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value due to their short termshort-term nature. The fair value of our investments is determined utilizing market basedmarket-based information. Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and credit risk.

 

US GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The levels of the fair value hierarchy under US GAAP are described below:

 

 Level 1Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
   
 Level 2Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
   
 Level 3Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect our own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

 

Investments and Marketable Securities

 

As of July 31, 20222023 and April 30, 2022,2023, our investments consisted of money markets, publicly traded equity securities, real estate investment trusts (REITs) as well as certain state and municipal debt securities. The marketable securities are valued using third-party broker statements. The value of the majority of securities is derived from quoted market information. The inputs to the valuation are generally classified as Level 1 given the active market for these securities, however, if an active market does not exist, which is the case for municipal bonds and REITs, the inputs are recorded as Level 2.

 

Fair Value Hierarchy

 

The following table sets forth our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and a non-recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by US GAAP, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Executive Summary

 

The Company’s performance remained steady during the quarter ended July 31, 20222023 as compared to the quarter ended July 31, 2021.2022. Although sales have increaseddecreased when comparing to the same quarter last year, overall net income is downup because realized and unrealized gains on investments are showing lossesgains in the current quarter, while for the same quarter last year both of those categories were incomeloss amounts. Also, gross profit and income from operations are lower when comparing to the same quarter last year. This is because of the increased costcosts of raw materials and labor. The uptickdecline in sales is mainly duea result of a slowing economy which has seen inflation climb to a price increase that implementedsome of its highest levels in January 2022. This was done to offset15 years and, in turn, impacts the increases in raw material and labor costs thathousing market, which the Company has incurredis directly tied to, continue to do business. The Company is still feeling the increased demand of having one of our major competitors close its doors at the end of calendar year 2019.negatively. The Company still has a considerable back-order log and there hashave been times that certain raw materials have not been available. Opportunities include focusing on ramping up production to meet customer’s needs to get product to them in a timely manner, which includes looking into more automation, and to continue looking at businesses that might be a good fit to purchase. We also have new products that are scheduled to enter the marketplace by the end of the calendar year. Challenges in the coming months include continuing to get product out to customers in a timely manner and dealing with the ongoing effect of the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions and inflation. Possible ongoing effects of COVID-19 challenges include, but are not limited to, price increases and/or delays in the supply chain, reduced sales, workforce interruptions, and economic conditions impacting the stock market. Management continues to work at keeping operations flowing as efficientefficiently as possible with the hopes of getting the facilities running leaner and more profitable than ever before.

New Product Development

 

The Company and its’ engineering department perpetually work to develop enhancements to current product lines, develop new products which complement existing products, and look for products that are well suited to our distribution network and manufacturing capabilities. Items currently in various stages of the development process include:

 

 ●Explosion proof contacts that will be UL listed for hazardous locations are in development. There has been demand from our customers for this type of high security magnetic reed switch.
   
 ●An updated version of the pool access alarm (PAA) has met electrical listing testing (ETL) approval and production has started. This next-generation model combines our battery operated DPA series with our hard wired 289 series. A variety of installation options will be available through jumper pin settings such as instant alarm and a seven second delay.
●The Company is developing magnetic contacts which are listed under UL 634 Level 2. These sensors are for high security applications such as government buildings, military use, nuclear facilities, and financial institutions.
●Research is being done on updating our small profile glass break detector, in addition to looking at development of programmable temperature and humidity sensors with built-in hysteresis.
   
 ●Wireless technology is a main area of focus for product development. We are considering adding wireless technology to some of our current products. A wireless contact switch is in the final stages of development. Also, we are working on wireless versions of monitoring devices which include glass break detection, tilt sensing and environmental monitoring. A redesign of our brass water valve shut-off system is near completion.

 

Other Information

 

In addition to researching and developing new products, management is always open to the possibility of acquiring a business or product line that would complement our existing operations. Due to the Company’s strong cash position, management believes this could be achieved without the need for outside financing. The intent is to utilize the equipment, marketing techniques and established customers to deliver new products and increase sales and profits.

 

There are no known seasonal trends with any of GRI’s products, since we sell to distributors and OEM manufacturers. Our products are tied to the housing industry and will fluctuate with building trends.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

This disclosure does not apply.

 

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer (also working as our chief financial officer), evaluated 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 Exchange Act) as of July 31, 2022.2023. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures employed at the Company were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.

 

In our annual report filed on Report 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2022,2023, management identified the following material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting:

 

 ●The small size of our Company limits our ability to achieve the desired level of separation of duties for proper internal controls and financial reporting, particularly as it relates to financial reporting to assure material disclosures or implementation of newly issued accounting standards are included. A secondary review over annual and quarterly filings does occur with an outside party. Due to the departure of theA part-time Controller was hired in March 2023, but the current CEO and CFO roles are being fulfilled by the same individual. We do not have an audit committee. We do not believe we have met the full requirement for separation of duties for financial reporting purposes.

We continue to operate with a limited number of accounting and financial personnel. For the quarter ending July 31, 2022, the Company did not have a Controller, but management is looking to fill this position as soon as possible. Training will be required to fulfill disclosure control and procedure responsibilities, including review procedures for key accounting schedules and timely and proper documentation of material transactions and agreements. Until sufficient training has taken place for this new Controller, we believe this control deficiency represents material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. To mitigate the effects of the material weakness identified in our annual report, the Company contracted with an outside CPA to perform a secondary review of our quarterly report filed on Form 10-Q.

 

Despite the material weaknesses in financial reporting noted above, we believe that our financial statements included in this report fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in all material respects.

 

We are committed to the establishment of effective internal controls over financial reporting and will place emphasis on quarterly and year-end closing procedures, timely documentation, and internal review of accounting and financial reporting consequences of material contracts and agreements, and enhanced review of all schedules and account analyses by experienced accounting department personnel or independent consultants.

 

We will continue to follow the standards for the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) for internal control over financial reporting to include procedures that:

●Pertain to the maintenance of records in reasonable detail that fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets;
●Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Board of Directors; and
●Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Other than those mentioned above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended July 31, 20222023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
