1. Basis of Presentation | |
The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements of American Electric Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“AETI”, “the Company”, “our”, “we”, “us”) as of September 30, 2014 and for the three months and nine months then ended have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and include all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial position as of September 30, 2014 and results of operations for the three months and nine months ending September 30, 2014 and 2013. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, which was filed on March 28, 2014. Because of the sale of the American Access Technologies, Inc. (“AAT”) segment’s operations which was completed on August 15, 2014, (except for its real estate) its remaining assets are presented as “held for sale” and its operations are reported as discontinued operations. |

Basic earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. Diluted earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the incremental shares that would have been outstanding upon the assumed conversion of convertible instruments, exercise of all potentially dilutive stock options and other stock units subject to anti-dilution limitations. | ||||||||||||||||

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
In January 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-01, Balance Sheet (Topic 210) – Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. ASU No. 2013-01 was issued to clarify that ordinary trade receivables and receivables are not within the scope of ASU No. 2011-11. ASU No. 2011-11 applies only to derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with specific criteria contained in the Codification or subject to a master netter arrangement or similar agreement. ASU No. 2013-01 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and interim periods within those periods. The adoption of ASU No. 2013-01 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. | |
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830) – Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity. ASU No. 2013-05 provides guidance on releasing cumulative translation adjustments when a reporting entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. In addition, ASU No. 2013-05 provides guidance on the release of cumulative translation adjustments in partial sales of equity method investments and in step acquisition. ASU No. 2013-05 is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013 and interim periods within those periods. The adoption of ASU No. 2013-05 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. | |
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. ASU No. 2014-08 changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. It also addresses sources of confusion and inconsistent application related to financial reporting of discontinued operations guidance in U.S. GAAP. Under ASU No. 2014-08, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization’s operations and financial results. In addition, ASU No. 2014-08 requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations. The guidance also requires disclosure of pre-tax income attributable to a disposal of a significant part of an organization that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. ASU No. 2014-08 is effective in the first quarter of 2015 with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the future impact of ASU No. 2014-08 on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and disclosures. | |
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). We are currently evaluating the future impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method with which we will adopt the standard in 2017. |

4. Segment Information | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company follows the guidance prescribed by the Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 280, Segment Reporting, which governs the way the Company reports information about its operating segments. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Management has organized the Company around its continuing products and services and has two reportable segments: Technical Products and Services (“TP&S”) and Electrical and Instrumentation Construction (“E&I”). TP&S develops, manufactures, provides and markets switchgear and variable speed drives. The service component of this segment includes retrofitting equipment upgrades, startups, testing and troubleshooting electrical substations, switchgear, drives and control systems. The E&I segment installs electrical equipment for the energy, industrial, marine and commercial markets. The American Access Technologies (AAT) segment manufactures and markets zone cabling and formed metal products of varying designs. Because of the disposition of the (AAT) segment’s operations and net assets in August 2014, that segment’s results are excluded from segment reporting and presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

* | Represents the 49% of the net book value at April 30, 2014, of which $188,000 has been received from AAG at September 30, 2014. No gain or loss was recorded because the receivable equals the Company’s total investment in AAG. The remaining receivable is included in accounts receivables. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
** | Accumulated statutory reserves of $1.86 million in equity method investments at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are included in AETI’s consolidated retained earnings. In accordance with the People’s Republic of China, (“PRC”), regulations on enterprises with foreign ownership, an enterprise established in the PRC with foreign ownership is required to provide for certain statutory reserves, namely (i) General Reserve Fund, (ii) Enterprise Expansion Fund and (iii) Staff Welfare and Bonus Fund, which are appropriated from net profit as reported in the enterprise’s PRC statutory accounts. A non-wholly-owned foreign invested enterprise is permitted to provide for the above allocation at the discretion of its board of directors. The aforementioned reserves can only be used for specific purposes and are not distributable as cash dividends. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Under the equity method, the Company’s share of the joint ventures’ operations’ earnings or loss is recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as equity income (loss) from foreign joint ventures’ operations. Joint venture income increases the carrying value of the joint venture investment and joint venture losses, as well as dividends received from the joint ventures, reduce the carrying value of the investment. Each reporting period, the Company evaluates the carrying value of these equity method investments as to whether an impairment adjustment may be necessary. In making this evaluation, a variety of quantitative and qualitative factors are considered including national and local economic, political and market conditions, industry trends and prospects, liquidity and capital resources and other pertinent factors. Based on this evaluation for this reporting period, the Company does not believe an impairment adjustment is necessary. |

Revolving Credit Agreement | |
On November 30, 2013, the Company entered into a $10 million Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Chase”). The agreement replaced in its entirety the Company’s prior credit agreement, as amended, originally entered into with Chase in October of 2007. | |
The 2013 agreement had a maturity date of October 1, 2015. Under the agreement, the credit facility’s interest rate is London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) (0.15% at September 30, 2014) plus 3.25% per annum and a commitment fee of 0.3% per annum on the unused portion of the credit limit each quarter. The 2013 agreement provides for usual and customary covenants and restrictions including that the borrower must maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.25 to 1.00, and will not permit the ratio of consolidated total liabilities to consolidated net worth to exceed 1.00. Additionally, the borrower will not permit, at the end of each calendar quarter, for its net income for the most recently ended six month period to be less than $1.00. Effective June 30, 2014 the Company and JP Morgan Chase Bank N.A. amended the 2013 credit agreement to exclude the impact of the AAT discontinued operations and anticipated sale of that segment from the calculation of the net income covenant. | |
On November 12, 2014 the Company entered into an amendment with JP Morgan Chase Bank N.A which extended the maturity of the facility to October 1, 2017. Additionally, the amendment modified the interest rate to LIBOR plus 3.00% per annum and the commitment fee to 0.4% per annum for the unused portion of the credit limit each quarter. The amendment provided for the exclusion of up to $4.9 million of capital expenditures related to the Company’s Beaumont facility expansion from the fixed charge coverage ratio. The amendment also waived the $1.00 net income requirement for the period ended September 30, 2014 and modified the requirement at December 31, 2014 to be calculated using only the most recent three month period. | |
The agreement is collateralized by the Company’s real estate in Beaumont, Texas, trade accounts receivable, equipment, inventories, work-in-progress and investments in foreign subsidiaries, and the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries are guarantors of the borrowing. | |
The Company has $0.5 million of borrowings outstanding under the JP Morgan Chase N.A. credit agreement at September 30, 2014 and $0.5 million at December 31, 2013. The Company had additional borrowing capacity of $5.7 million and $7.9 million at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 respectively. | |
In conjunction with the facility expansion at Beaumont completed in June 2014, interest was capitalized at the 30 day LIBOR rate plus 3.25% per annum. Interest capitalized for nine months ending September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $18,000 and none respectively and none was capitalized for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. |

8. Income Taxes | |
It was determined in the fourth quarter of 2011 that due to the Internal Revenue Code’s Section 382 limitations on our ability to utilize the net operating losses carry forwards of approximately $9.8 million generated by American Access Technologies, Inc., prior to the Company’s merger in 2007 and subsequent net operating losses and foreign tax credit carry forwards, a full valuation allowance was warranted in the fourth quarter of 2011. As such, the tax provision on U.S. income generated in 2014 and 2013 is offset by a reduction of the valuation allowance provided in 2011. The tax provision for 2014 and 2013 reflects a 34% U.S. tax rate related to the equity in foreign joint ventures’ operations, net of dividends received for an effective rate of 0% and 16% because of the mix of US income or loss, foreign equity income and dividends. The disposition of AAT’s assets and liabilities is not expected to affect the remaining operating loss carry forwards. |

The discount related to the warrants is accreted to retained earnings through the scheduled redemption date of the redeemable Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

During the first quarter of 2014, the management and the Board of Directors of AETI initiated a process to evaluate the possible sale of the AAT segment as well as other alternatives. The segment is comprised entirely of the American Access Technologies, Inc. operations in Florida. During the second quarter, the decision was made to sell the AAT business. Based on the expected value of the assets and liabilities for sale and the costs associated with the sale, an impairment loss of approximately $2.3 million after tax was recorded in the second quarter in discontinued operations results along with the $84 operating loss for the second quarter and $268 operating loss in the first quarter for AAT. Prior to the completion of the sale AAT lost $20 from operations in the third quarter. AAT results are considered discontinued operations and its assets and associated liabilities are carried as assets and liabilities held for sale. Therefore, their results are presented below continuing operating results as discontinued operations. Future periods will continue to report AAT results as discontinued in all comparative periods. The sale of all non-cash assets excluding the real property closed effective August 14, 2014. The real estate was leased to the buyer for a minimum of one year with an option to purchase and remains in assets held for sale. | ||||||||||||||||
