ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract]
ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS — Our company was founded in 1990 and is a Delaware corporation. e e e BASIS OF PRESENTATION — The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of e INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 were prepared by us, without audit, and include all normal and recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, changes in comprehensive income and cash flows for such periods. Operating results for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2018 or any other future period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for annual financial statements. Our audited consolidated financial statements are contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2017 (“2017 Annual Report”), which should be read in conjunction with these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. USE OF ESTIMATES — The notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in the 2017 Annual Report include additional discussion of the significant accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates during the nine months ended December 31, 2017. STOCK SPLIT — On March 31, 2017, we completed a two-for-one stock split in the form of a stock dividend. References made to outstanding shares or per share amounts in the accompanying financial statements and disclosures have been retroactively adjusted for this stock split. The number of authorized shares reflected on the consolidated balance sheets was not affected by the stock split. CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK — A substantial portion of our sales of product and services are from sales of Cisco Systems, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (“HPE”) and HP, Inc. (collectively “Hewlett Packard companies”), and NetApp products, which represented approximately 39%, 5% and 7%, and 45%, 7%, and 5%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017. Sales of Cisco Systems, Hewlett Packard companies, and NetApp represented approximately 45%, 6% and 6%, and 49%, 6% and 5%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2016. Any changes in our vendors’ ability to provide products or incentive programs could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS	2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS NOT YET ADOPTED — In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date We have established a cross-functional implementation team and utilized a bottom-up approach to analyze the impact of the standard on our arrangements by reviewing the current accounting policies and practices to identify potential differences that would result from applying the requirements of the new standard to our revenue contracts. Based on our analysis to date, we have reached the following tentative conclusions regarding the new standard and how we expect it to affect our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures: · We will adopt the guidance in our quarter ending June 30, 2018. We currently prefer to adopt the standard using the full retrospective method; however, our ability to do so is dependent on many factors, including the completion of our analysis of information necessary to recast prior period financial statements. Based on these and other factors, we may decide to use the modified retrospective method. · Substantially all of our revenue within our technology segment is contractual and is within the scope of ASU No. 2014-09, as amended. The majority of our revenues within our financing segment are scoped out of this update. · The majority of our revenues within our technology segment are derived from sales of third-party products, third-party software, third-party services, such as maintenance and software assurance, and sales of e o We recognize revenue on sales of third party product and third-party software on a gross basis upon delivery and we are still assessing whether we are acting as a principal or an agent in these transactions under the update. o We recognize sales of third party maintenance and software assurance on a net basis at the date of sale and sales of e · We expect that our disclosures in our notes to our consolidated financial statements related to revenue recognition will be significantly expanded under the new standard. Our analysis and evaluation of the new standard will continue through its effective date in our quarter ending June 30, 2018. A substantial amount of work remains to be completed due to the complexity of the new standard, the application of judgment and the requirement for the use of estimates in applying the new standard, as well as the volume of our customer portfolio and the related terms and conditions of our contracts that must be reviewed.

The components of the operating leases—net are as follows (in thousands): December 31, 2017 March 31, 2017 Cost of equipment under operating leases $ 16,804 $ 16,725 Accumulated depreciation (9,039 ) (8,449 ) Investment in operating lease equipment—net (1) $ 7,765 $ 8,276 (1) These totals include estimated unguaranteed residual values of $2,077 thousand and $1,117 thousand as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively. TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS We enter into arrangements to transfer the contractual payments due under financing receivables and operating lease agreements, which are accounted for as sales or secured borrowings in accordance with ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing For transfers accounted for as sales, we derecognize the carrying value of the asset transferred and recognize a net gain or loss on the sale, which are presented within net sales in the consolidated statement of operations. During the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we recognized net gains of $1.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, and total proceeds from these sales were $32.8 million and $55.8 million, respectively. During the nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we recognized net gains of $4.6 million and $4.1 million, respectively, and total proceeds from these sales were $166.9 million and $185.4 million, respectively. For certain assignments of financial assets, we retain a servicing obligation. For assignments accounted for as sales, we allocate a portion of the proceeds to deferred revenues, which is recognized as we perform the services. As of both December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017, we had deferred revenue of $0.5 million for servicing. In a limited number of such sales, we indemnified the assignee in the event that the lessee elected to early terminate the lease. As of December 31, 2017, our maximum potential future payments related to such guarantees is $0.6 million. We believe the possibility of making any payments to be remote.

See Note 15, "Business Combinations" for additional information regarding our acquisitions. We performed our annual test for goodwill impairment for fiscal year 2018 as of October 1, 2017. We performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill and concluded that the fair value of our technology reporting unit, more likely than not, exceeded its respective carrying value as of October 1, 2017. We performed our annual test for goodwill impairment for fiscal year 2017 as of October 1, 2016. We elected to bypass the qualitative assessment of goodwill and estimate the fair value of our reporting units. The fair value of our technology reporting unit substantially exceeded its carrying value as of October 1, 2016. Our conclusions would not be impacted by a ten percent change in our estimate of the fair value of the reporting unit.

We charge off uncollectable financing receivables when we stop pursuing collection. As of March 31, 2017 we had a balance outstanding as of $3.2 million for a customer in bankruptcy which was fully reserved and on a non-accrual status. We wrote off this balance against the reserve for credit losses during the nine months ended December 31, 2017, after the bankruptcy case was substantially complete.

NOTES PAYABLE AND CREDIT FACILITY	7. Non-recourse and recourse obligations consist of the following (in thousands): December 31, 2017 March 31, 2017 Recourse notes payable with interest rates ranging from 3.20% to 4.13% as of March 31, 2017. Current $ - $ 908 Non-recourse notes payable secured by financing receivables and investment in operating leases with interest rates ranging from 2.00% to 8.45% December 31, 2017, and ranging from 2.00% to 7.75% as of March 31, 2017.

The weighted average interest rate for our non-recourse notes payable was 3.73%, as of both December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017. The weighted average interest rate for our recourse notes payable was .45%, as of March 31, 2017. Under recourse financing, in the event of a default by a customer, the lender has recourse to the customer, the assets serving as collateral, and us. Under non-recourse financing, in the event of a default by a customer, the lender generally only has recourse against the customer, and the assets serving as collateral, but not against us. Our technology segment, through our subsidiary e On July 27, 2017, we executed an amendment to the WFCDF credit facility which temporarily increases the aggregate limit of the two components from $250.0 million to $325.0 million from the date of the agreement through October 31, 2017, and provides us an election beginning July 1 in each subsequent year to similarly temporarily increase the aggregate limit of the two components to $325.0 million ending the earlier of 90 days following the date of election or October 31 of that same year. As of December 31, 2017, the facility agreement had an aggregate limit of the two components of $250 million, and the accounts receivable component had a sub-limit of $30 million, which bears interest assessed at a rate of the One Month LIBOR plus two and one half percent.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Legal Proceedings From time to time, we may be subject to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. However, the outcome of legal proceedings and claims brought against us is subject to significant uncertainty. Therefore, although management considers the likelihood of such an outcome to be remote, if one or more of these legal matters were resolved against the Company in a reporting period for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected.

EARNINGS PER SHARE [Abstract]
EARNINGS PER SHARE	9. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the basic weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the basic weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus common stock equivalents during each period. The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used to calculate basic and diluted net income per common share as disclosed on our consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands, except per share data).

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION [Abstract]
SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION	11. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION Share-Based Plans As of December 31, 2017, we had share-based awards outstanding under the following Restricted Stock Activity For the nine months ended December 31, 2017, we granted 535 restricted shares under the 2008 Director LTIP, 5,310 restricted shares under the 2017 Director LTIP, and 66,530 restricted shares under the 2012 Employee LTIP. For the nine months ended December 31, 2016, we granted 11,384 restricted shares under the 2008 Director LTIP, and 134,538 restricted shares under the 2012 Employee LTIP. A summary of the restricted shares is as follows: Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant-date Fair Value Nonvested April 1, 2017 371,689 $ 40.45 Granted 72,375 $ 80.25 Vested (156,240 ) $ 38.52 Forfeited (4,108 ) $ 39.37 Nonvested December 31, 2017 283,716 $ 51.68 Upon each vesting period of the restricted stock awards, employees are subject to minimum tax withholding obligations. Under the 2012 Employee LTIP, we may purchase a sufficient number of shares due to the participant to satisfy their minimum tax withholding on employee stock awards. For the nine months ended December 31, 2017, the Company had acquired 57,725 shares of common stock at a value of $4.4 million to satisfy tax withholding obligations relating to the vesting of employees’ restricted stock, which was included in treasury stock. Compensation Expense We recognize compensation cost for awards of restricted stock with graded vesting on a straight line basis over the requisite service period. There are no additional conditions for vesting other than service conditions. During the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we recognized $1.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of total share-based compensation expense. During the nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we recognized $4.9 million and $4.5 million, respectively, of total share-based compensation expense. Unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested restricted stock was $11.1 million as of December 31, 2017, which will be fully recognized over the next thirty (30) months. We also provide our employees with a contributory 401(k) profit sharing plan. We may make contributions to the plan. These contributions are not required and whether or not we choose to make them is entirely within our discretion. Our employer contributions to the plan are fully vested at all times. For the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, our estimated contribution expense for the plan was $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. For the nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, our estimated contribution expense for the plan was $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

INCOME TAXES [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	12. INCOME TAXES Income Taxes – Provision Our provision for income tax expense was $0.7 million and $19.5 million for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, as compared to $8.7 million and $27.3 million for the same periods in the prior year. Our effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, was 4.2% and 29.7%, respectively, compared to 40.8% and 40.5% for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2016, respectively. In the third quarter, the Company revised its estimated annual effective tax rate to reflect a change in the federal statutory rate from 35% to 21%, resulting from legislation that was enacted on December 22, 2017. The rate change is administratively effective at the beginning of our current fiscal year, using a blended rate for the annual period. As a result, the blended statutory tax rate for our current year is 31.5%. In addition, we recognized an estimated tax benefit in our tax provision for the period related to adjusting our deferred tax balance to reflect the new corporate tax rate. As a result, income tax expense reported for the first nine months was adjusted to reflect the effects of the change in the tax law and resulted in a decrease in income tax expense of $2.6 million during the third quarter. In addition we estimated the tax effect of originating items occurring in the fourth quarter that are expected to reverse at a rate of 21%. This resulted in an additional tax benefit of $0.8 million. The accounting for the effects of the rate change on deferred tax balances is provisional and we will finalize these estimates during our fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018. We re-measured certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%. However, we are still analyzing certain aspects of the new tax law and refining our calculations, which could potentially affect the measurement of these balances or potentially give rise to new deferred tax amounts. Income Taxes – Uncertain Tax Positions We account for our tax positions in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes Our total gross unrecognized tax benefits recorded for uncertain income tax, and interest and penalties thereon, were negligible as of December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016. We had no additions or reductions to our gross unrecognized tax benefits during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017. We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS	15. Integrated Data Storage, LLC acquisition On September 15, 2017, our subsidiary e Plus Technology, inc. acquired of Integrated Data Storage, LLC (“IDS”) though an asset purchase agreement. Headquartered in Oak Brook, IL and with offices in downtown Chicago and Indianapolis, IDS is an advanced data center solutions provider focused on cloud enablement and managed services, including its proprietary IDS Cloud, which features enterprise-class technology infrastructure coupled with consulting services to support private, hybrid, and public cloud deployments. The acquisition expands e Plus’ footprint in the Midwest and enhances its sales and engineering capabilities in cloud services, disaster recovery and backup as a service, storage, data center, and professional services. Our preliminary sum of total consideration transferred is $38.4 million, consisting of $29.8 million paid in cash at closing, less $1.4 million in receivables due to us as a working capital adjustment , plus an additional $10.0 million equal to the preliminary fair value of consideration, contingent on the acquiree’s business operations future gross profit. The contingent consideration was calculated using the Monte Carlo simulation model based on our projections of future gross profits. The maximum payout of the contingent consideration is $15.0 million paid over 3 years.

The identified intangible assets of $13.7 million consist of customer relationships with an estimated useful life of 8 years. The fair value of acquired receivables equals the gross contractual amounts receivable. We expect to collect all acquired receivables. We recognized goodwill related to this transaction of $21.1 million, which was assigned to our technology reporting unit. The goodwill recognized in the acquisition is attributable to the acquired assembled workforce and expected synergies, none of which qualify for recognition as a separate intangible asset. The total amount of goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The amount of revenues and earnings of the acquiree since the acquisition date are not material. Likewise, the impact to the revenue and earnings of the combined entity for the current reporting period through the acquisition date had the acquisition date been April 1, 2017, is not material.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS [Abstract]
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS NOT YET ADOPTED	RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS NOT YET ADOPTED — In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date We have established a cross-functional implementation team and utilized a bottom-up approach to analyze the impact of the standard on our arrangements by reviewing the current accounting policies and practices to identify potential differences that would result from applying the requirements of the new standard to our revenue contracts. Based on our analysis to date, we have reached the following tentative conclusions regarding the new standard and how we expect it to affect our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures: · We will adopt the guidance in our quarter ending June 30, 2018. We currently prefer to adopt the standard using the full retrospective method; however, our ability to do so is dependent on many factors, including the completion of our analysis of information necessary to recast prior period financial statements. Based on these and other factors, we may decide to use the modified retrospective method. · Substantially all of our revenue within our technology segment is contractual and is within the scope of ASU No. 2014-09, as amended. The majority of our revenues within our financing segment are scoped out of this update. · The majority of our revenues within our technology segment are derived from sales of third-party products, third-party software, third-party services, such as maintenance and software assurance, and sales of e o We recognize revenue on sales of third party product and third-party software on a gross basis upon delivery and we are still assessing whether we are acting as a principal or an agent in these transactions under the update. o We recognize sales of third party maintenance and software assurance on a net basis at the date of sale and sales of e · We expect that our disclosures in our notes to our consolidated financial statements related to revenue recognition will be significantly expanded under the new standard. Our analysis and evaluation of the new standard will continue through its effective date in our quarter ending June 30, 2018. A substantial amount of work remains to be completed due to the complexity of the new standard, the application of judgment and the requirement for the use of estimates in applying the new standard, as well as the volume of our customer portfolio and the related terms and conditions of our contracts that must be reviewed.
