Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | ||||||||||||
We are a national solutions provider of a wide range of information technology (“IT”) solutions. We help our customers design, enable, manage, and service their IT environments. We provide IT products, including computer systems, software and peripheral equipment, networking communications, and other products and accessories that we purchase from manufacturers, distributors, and other suppliers. We also offer services involving design, configuration, and implementation of IT solutions. These services are performed by our personnel and by third-party providers. We operate through three sales segments, which serve primarily: (a) small- to medium-sized businesses, in our SMB segment, through our PC Connection Sales subsidiary, (b) large enterprise customers, in our Large Account segment, through our MoreDirect subsidiary, and (c) federal, state, and local government and educational institutions, in our Public Sector segment, through our GovConnection subsidiary. | |||||||||||||
The following is a summary of our significant accounting policies: | |||||||||||||
Principles of Consolidation | |||||||||||||
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PC Connection, Inc. and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. | |||||||||||||
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements | |||||||||||||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts and disclosures of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts and disclosures of revenue and expenses during the period. By nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. | |||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition | |||||||||||||
Revenue on product sales is recognized at the point in time when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, delivery has occurred, and there is a reasonable assurance of collection of the sales proceeds. We generally obtain oral or written purchase authorizations from our customers for a specified amount of product at a specified price. Because we either (i) have a general practice of covering customer losses while products are in-transit despite title transferring at the point of shipment or (ii) have FOB–destination shipping terms specifically set out in our arrangements with federal agencies and certain commercial customers, delivery is deemed to have occurred at the point in time when the product is received by the customer. | |||||||||||||
We provide our customers with a limited thirty-day right of return generally limited to defective merchandise. Revenue is recognized at delivery and a reserve for sales returns is recorded. We make reasonable and reliable estimates of product returns based on significant historical experience and record our sales reserves as a reduction of revenues and either as offsets to accounts receivable or, for customers who have already paid, as offsets to accrued expenses. At December 31, 2014, we recorded sales reserves of $3,223 and $205 as components of accounts receivable and accrued expenses, respectively. At December 31, 2013, we recorded sales reserves of $3,060 and $208 as components of accounts receivable and accrued expenses, respectively. | |||||||||||||
All amounts billed to a customer in a sales transaction related to shipping and handling, if any, represent revenues earned for the goods provided, and these amounts have been classified as “net sales.” Costs related to such shipping and handling billings are classified as “cost of sales.” Sales are reported net of sales, use, or other transaction taxes that are collected from customers and remitted to taxing authorities. | |||||||||||||
We use our own engineering personnel in projects involving the design and installation of systems and networks, and we also engage third-party service providers to perform warranty maintenance, implementations, asset disposals, and other services. This service revenue represents a small percentage of our consolidated revenue. We evaluate such engagements to determine whether we or the third party assumes the general risk and reward of ownership in these transactions. For those transactions in which we do not assume the risk and reward but instead act as an agent, we recognize the transaction revenue on a net basis. Under net sales recognition, the cost of the third party is recorded as a reduction to the selling price, resulting in net sales being equal to the gross profit on the transaction. In those engagements in which we are the principal and primary obligor, we report the sale on a gross basis, and the cost of the service provider is recognized in cost of goods sold. | |||||||||||||
Similarly, we recognize revenue from agency sales transactions on a net sales basis. In agency sales transactions, we facilitate product sales by equipment and software manufacturers directly to our customers and receive agency, or referral, fees for such transactions. We do not take title to the products or assume any maintenance or return obligations in these transactions; title is passed directly from the supplier to our customer. | |||||||||||||
Amounts recognized on a net basis included in net sales for such third-party services and agency sales transactions were $25,696, $20,570, and $18,870 for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||
In certain revenue arrangements, our contracts require that we provide multiple units of hardware, software, or services deliverables. Under these multiple-element arrangements, each service performed and product delivered is considered a separate deliverable and qualifies as a separate unit of accounting. For material multiple element arrangements, we allocate revenue based on vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value of the underlying services and products. If we were to enter into a multiple element arrangement in which vendor-specific objective evidence was not available, we would utilize third-party evidence to allocate the selling price. If neither vendor-specific objective evidence nor third-party evidence was available, we would estimate the selling price based on market price and company specific factors. | |||||||||||||
Cost of Sales and Certain Other Costs | |||||||||||||
Cost of sales includes the invoice cost of the product, direct employee and third party cost of services, direct costs of packaging, inbound and outbound freight, and provisions for inventory obsolescence, adjusted for discounts, rebates, and other vendor allowances. Direct operating expenses relating to our purchasing function and receiving, inspection, warehousing, packing and shipping, and other expenses of our distribution center are included in our SG&A expenses. Accordingly, our gross margin may not be comparable to those of other entities who include all of the costs related to their distribution network in cost of goods sold. Such distribution costs included in our SG&A expenses are as follows: | |||||||||||||
Years Ended December 31, | |||||||||||||
2014 | 2013 | 2012 | |||||||||||
$13,934 | $ | 13,843 | $ | 13,878 | |||||||||
Cash and Cash Equivalents | |||||||||||||
We consider all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of our cash equivalents approximates fair value. The majority of payments due from credit card processors and banks for third-party credit card and debit card transactions process within one to five business days. All credit card and debit card transactions that process in less than seven days are classified as cash and cash equivalents. Amounts due from banks for credit card transactions classified as cash equivalents totaled $3,863 and $5,115 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. | |||||||||||||
Accounts Receivable | |||||||||||||
We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based on payment history and customer creditworthiness. We maintain an allowance for estimated doubtful accounts based on our historical experience and the customer credit issues identified. Our customers do not post collateral for open accounts receivable. We monitor collections regularly and adjust the allowance for doubtful accounts as necessary to recognize any changes in credit exposure. Trade receivables are charged off in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously charged are recorded when received. | |||||||||||||
Inventories | |||||||||||||
Inventories (all finished goods) consisting of software packages, computer systems, and peripheral equipment, are stated at cost (determined under a weighted-average cost method which approximates the first-in, first-out method) or market, whichever is lower. Inventory quantities on hand are reviewed regularly, and allowances are maintained for obsolete, slow moving, and nonsalable inventory. | |||||||||||||
Vendor Allowances | |||||||||||||
We receive allowances from merchandise vendors for price protections, discounts, product rebates, and other programs. These allowances are treated as a reduction of the vendor’s prices and are recorded as adjustments to cost of sales or inventory, as applicable. Allowances for product rebates that require certain volumes of product sales or purchases are recorded as the related milestones are probable of being met. | |||||||||||||
Advertising Costs and Allowances | |||||||||||||
Costs of producing and distributing catalogs are charged to expense in the period in which the catalogs are first circulated. Other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. | |||||||||||||
Vendors have the ability to place advertisements in our catalogs or fund other advertising activities for which we receive advertising allowances. These vendor allowances, to the extent that they represent specific reimbursements of incremental and identifiable costs, are offset against SG&A expenses. Advertising allowances that cannot be associated with a specific program funded by an individual vendor or that exceed the fair value of advertising expense associated with that program are classified as offsets to cost of sales or inventory. Our vendor partners generally consolidate their funding of advertising and other marketing programs, and accordingly, we classify substantially all vendor consideration as a reduction of cost of sales or inventory rather than a reduction of advertising expense. Advertising expense, which is classified as a component of SG&A expenses, totaled $15,767, $18,019, and $20,029, for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||
Property and Equipment | |||||||||||||
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is provided for financial reporting purposes over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to seven years. Computer software, including licenses and internally developed software, is capitalized and amortized over lives ranging from three to seven years. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements and facilities under capital leases are amortized over the terms of the related leases or their useful lives, whichever is shorter, whereas for income tax reporting purposes, they are amortized over the applicable tax lives. | |||||||||||||
Costs incurred to develop internal-use software during the application development stage are recorded in property and equipment at cost. External direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining internal-use computer software and payroll-related costs for employees developing internal-use computer software projects, to the extent of their time spent directly on the project and specific to application development, are capitalized. | |||||||||||||
When events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment, we evaluate the carrying value of property and equipment based upon current and anticipated undiscounted cash flows. We recognize impairment when it is probable that such estimated future cash flows will be less than the asset carrying value. | |||||||||||||
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | |||||||||||||
Our intangible assets consist of goodwill, which is not subject to amortization, and amortizing intangibles, which consist of customer lists, trade names, and certain technology licensing agreements, which are being amortized over their useful lives. | |||||||||||||
Note 2 describes the annual impairment methodology that we employ on January 1st of each year in calculating the recoverability of goodwill. This same impairment test is performed at other times during the course of a year should an event occur or circumstance change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. | |||||||||||||
Recoverability of amortizing intangible assets is assessed only when events have occurred that may give rise to impairment. When a potential impairment has been identified, forecasted undiscounted net cash flows of the operations to which the asset relates are compared to the current carrying value of the long-lived assets present in that operation. If such cash flows are less than such carrying amounts, long-lived assets including such intangibles, are written down to their respective fair values. | |||||||||||||
Concentrations | |||||||||||||
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade account receivables are limited due to the large number of customers comprising our customer base. No single customer accounted for more than 2% of total net sales in 2014, 2013, and 2012. While no single agency of the federal government comprised more than 2% of total sales, aggregate sales to the federal government as a percentage of total net sales were 6.5%, 6.4%, and 8.4% in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||
Product purchases from Ingram Micro, Inc. (“Ingram”), our largest supplier, accounted for approximately 25%, 24%, and 26% of our total product purchases in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. Purchases from Synnex Corporation (“Synnex”) comprised 13%, 12%, and 14% of our total product purchases in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. Purchases from Tech Data Corporation (“Tech Data”) comprised 8% of our total product purchases in 2014 and 10% in 2013 and 2012, respectively. No other vendor supplied more than 10% of our total product purchases in 2014, 2013, or 2012. We believe that, while we may experience some short-term disruption, alternative sources for products obtained directly from Ingram, Synnex, and Tech Data are available to us. | |||||||||||||
Products manufactured by HP represented 22%, 25%, and 27% of our net sales in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. We believe that in the event we experience either a short-term or permanent disruption of supply of HP products, such disruption would likely have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows. | |||||||||||||
Earnings Per Share | |||||||||||||
Basic earnings per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding.

Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards | |||||||||||||
On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), its final standard on revenue from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In applying the revenue model to contracts within its scope, an entity identifies the contract(s) with a customer, identifies the performance obligations in the contract, determines the transaction price, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognizes revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 applies to all contracts with customers that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. ASU 2014-09 also requires significantly expanded disclosures about revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is effective for us on January 1, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements. |

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | 2. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Goodwill | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Goodwill is subject to an annual impairment test and tested more frequently if events or circumstances occur that would indicate a potential decline in fair value. For goodwill, a two-step quantitative test is performed at a reporting unit level which requires, under the first step, that the fair value of a reporting unit is determined and compared to the reporting unit’s carrying value, including goodwill. To assess the fair value of a reporting unit, both income and market valuation approaches are used. If the fair value is determined to be less than the carrying value, the second step is performed to measure the amount of the impairment. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Our annual impairment test of goodwill is set as of the first day of the year. Goodwill is held by our Large Account reporting unit. The fair value of the Large Account reporting unit substantially exceeded its carrying value; accordingly, we did not identify any goodwill impairment for 2014. We also did not identify any events or circumstances that would indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying value of the reporting unit was in excess of the fair value during the year ended December 31, 2014. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
To determine the fair value of our reporting unit, we considered operating results and future projections, as well as changes in the Company’s overall market capitalization, in addition to the market capitalization of our competitors. The significant assumptions used in our discounted cash flow analysis include: projected cash flows and profitability, the discount rate used to present value future cash flows, working capital requirements, and terminal growth rates. Cash flows and profitability assumptions include sales growth, gross margin, and SG&A growth assumptions which are generally based on historical trends. The discount rate used is a “market participant” weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”). For our computation of fair value as of January 1, 2014, we used a WACC rate of 12.5%, and estimated terminal growth rate at 4.0% and working capital requirements at 7.5% of revenues. There were no changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill during each of the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The carrying amount of goodwill for the periods presented is detailed below: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

We have a $50,000 credit facility collateralized by our receivables that expires February 24, 2017. This facility can be increased, at our option, to $80,000 for approved acquisitions or other uses authorized by the lender at substantially the same terms. Amounts outstanding under this facility bear interest at the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), plus a spread based on our funded debt ratio, or in the absence of LIBOR, the prime rate (3.25% at December 31, 2014). The one-month LIBOR rate at December 31, 2014 was 0.17%. The credit facility includes various customary financial ratios and operating covenants, including minimum net worth and maximum funded debt ratio requirements, and default acceleration provisions. Funded debt ratio is the ratio of average outstanding advances under the credit facility to Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization, and Special Charges). The maximum allowable funded debt ratio under the agreement is 2.0 to 1.0. Decreases in our consolidated Adjusted EBITDA could limit our potential borrowings under the credit facility. We had no outstanding bank borrowings in 2014 or 2013, and accordingly, the entire $50,000 facility was available for borrowings under the credit facility. | |||||||||||||

The agreements allow a collateralized first position in certain branded products in our inventory financed by the financial institutions up to an aggregated amount of $57,000. The cost of such financing under these agreements is borne by the suppliers by discounting their invoices to the financial institutions. We do not pay any interest or discount fees on such inventory.

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Restated Certificate”) authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”). Under the terms of the Restated Certificate, the Board is authorized, subject to any limitations prescribed by law, without stockholder approval, to issue by a unanimous vote such shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series. Each such series of Preferred Stock shall have such rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions, including voting rights, dividend rights, redemption privileges, and liquidation preferences, as shall be determined by the Board. There were no preferred shares outstanding at December 31, 2014 or 2013. | |||||||||||||||||
Share Repurchase Authorization | |||||||||||||||||
On March 28, 2001, our Board of Directors authorized the spending of up to $15,000 to repurchase our common stock. We consider block repurchases directly from larger stockholders, as well as open market purchases, in carrying out our ongoing stock repurchase program. | |||||||||||||||||
We repurchased 762 shares for $7,813 in 2012 but did not repurchase any shares in 2013 or 2014. Our 2012 repurchases included the purchase of 600 shares from two principal stockholders at an average price of $10.58 per share. This share purchase agreement was approved by our Board of Directors and was considered a separate transaction from our 2001 Board authorized program. As of December 31, 2014, we have repurchased an aggregate of 1,682 shares for $12,233 under our repurchase program, and the maximum approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under this program is $2,767. In 2013 and 2012, we issued nonvested shares from treasury stock and reflected, upon the vesting of such shares, the net remaining balance of treasury stock on the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, we withheld shares upon the vesting of nonvested stock to satisfy related employee tax obligations. Such transactions were recognized as a repurchase of common stock and returned to treasury but did not apply against authorized repurchase limits under our Board of Directors’ authorization. | |||||||||||||||||
On February 11, 2014, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program authorizing up to $15,000 in share repurchases. There is no fixed termination date for this new repurchase program. Purchases may be made in open-market transactions, block transactions on or off an exchange, or in privately negotiated transactions. We intend to complete the 2001 repurchase program before repurchasing shares under the new program. The timing and amount of any share repurchases will be based on market conditions and other factors. | |||||||||||||||||

Equity Compensation Plan Descriptions | |||||||||||||||||
In November 1997, the Board adopted and our stockholders approved the 1997 Stock Incentive Plan (the “1997 Plan”). Under the terms of the 1997 Plan, we were authorized, for a ten-year period, to grant stock options, nonvested stock, and other stock-based awards. The 1997 Plan expired in November 2007. Under such plan, options to purchase 155 shares remain outstanding as of December 31, 2014. | |||||||||||||||||
In 2007, the Board adopted and our stockholders approved the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”). In May 2014, our shareholders approved an amendment to the 2007 Plan that authorized the issuance of 1,600 shares of common stock under the 2007 Plan. Under the terms of the 2007 Plan, we are authorized, for a ten-year period to grant options, stock appreciation rights, nonvested stock, nonvested stock units, and other stock-based awards to employees, officers, directors, and consultants. As of December 31, 2014, there were 155 shares eligible for future grants under the 2007 Plan. | |||||||||||||||||
1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan | |||||||||||||||||
In November 1997, the Board adopted and our stockholders approved the 1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”). The Purchase Plan authorizes the issuance of common stock to participating employees. Under the Purchase Plan, as amended, our employees are eligible to purchase company stock at 95% of the purchase price as of the last business day of each six-month offering period. An aggregate of 1,038 shares of common stock has been reserved for issuance under the Purchase Plan, of which 989 shares have been purchased. | |||||||||||||||||
Accounting for Share-Based Compensation | |||||||||||||||||
We measure the grant date fair value of equity awards given to employees and recognize that cost, adjusted for forfeitures, over the period that services are performed. We value grants with multiple vesting periods as a single award, estimate expected forfeitures based upon historical patterns of employee turnover, and record share-based compensation as a component of SG&A expenses or special charges. In 2014, 2013, and 2012, we granted nonvested stock units, and in previous years granted nonvested stock awards and stock options. | |||||||||||||||||
We employ the Black-Scholes option valuation model to assess the grant date fair value of each option grant. The application of this model requires certain key input assumptions, including expected volatility, option term, and risk-free interest rates. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock. The expected term of an option grant is estimated using the historical exercise behavior of employees and directors. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve that corresponds most closely to the stock option’s expected average life. | |||||||||||||||||

In 2014, 2013 and 2012, we issued nonvested stock units that settle in stock and vest over periods up to eleven years. Recipients of nonvested stock units do not possess stockholder rights.

Unearned compensation cost related to the nonvested portion of outstanding nonvested stock units was $6,079 as of December 31, 2014, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 7.3 years. | |||||||||||||||||
Stock Equivalent Units | |||||||||||||||||
We have also issued stock equivalent units, (“SEUs”), which settle in cash and vest ratably over four years. The fair value of these liability awards is based on the closing market price of our common stock, and is remeasured at the end of each reporting period until the SEUs vest. We report the compensation as a component of SG&A expense and the related liability as accrued payroll on the consolidated balance sheet. | |||||||||||||||||

We have state net operating loss carryforwards aggregating $891 at December 31, 2014 representing state tax benefits, net of federal taxes, of approximately $579. These loss carryforwards are subject to between five, fifteen, and twenty-year carryforward periods, with $8 expiring after 2016, $6 expiring after 2017, $2 expiring after 2018 and $875 expiring beyond 2019. We have provided valuation allowances of $313 and $249 at December 31, 2014 and 2013 respectively, against the state tax loss carryforwards, representing the portion of carryforward losses that we believe are not likely to be realized. The net change in the total valuation allowance reflects a $64 increase in 2014, and a $42 and $237 decrease in 2013 and 2012, respectively. The valuation allowance was increased in the current year to offset the corresponding increase to the deferred tax asset associated with state net operating loss carryforwards and was reduced in 2013 and 2012 respectively for the utilization and expiration of state net operating loss carryforwards. | |||||||||||||

We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits as a component of income tax expense, and the corresponding accrual is included as a component of our liability for unrecognized income tax benefits. During the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, we recognized interest and penalties totaling $80, $81, and $93, respectively. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, accrued interest aggregated $966 and $967, respectively, and accrued penalties aggregated $224 and $254, respectively. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, all unrecognized tax benefits and the related interest and penalties, if recognized, would favorably affect our effective tax rate. | |||||||||||||
We do not anticipate that total unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly due to the settlement of audits, expiration of statutes of limitations, or other reasons in the next twelve months. |

Operating Leases | |||||||||||||
We lease our corporate headquarters and an adjacent office facility from an entity controlled by our principal stockholders. The operating lease for our corporate headquarters was renewed May 8, 2014 and has a five-year term effective December 1, 2013 with an option to renew for an additional five-year term. The operating lease for the adjacent facility commenced in August 2008 and has a ten-year term with the option to renew for two additional two-year terms. We also lease several other buildings from our principal stockholders on a month-to-month basis. We believe that the above operating lease transactions were consummated on terms comparable to terms we could have obtained with unrelated third parties. | |||||||||||||
We entered into a ten-year lease for a new distribution center in Wilmington, Ohio on August 27, 2014. The facility is located in the same office park as our current distribution center in Wilmington, Ohio. Lease payments commence on September 1, 2015. In addition, we lease office from unrelated parties with remaining terms of one to ten years. | |||||||||||||

Such amounts included $1,639, $372, and $464 in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively, paid to related parties. | |||||||||||||
Contingencies | |||||||||||||
We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims, including patent infringement claims, which have arisen during the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of such matters is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. | |||||||||||||
We have received direct claims of infringement of patents owned by third parties. Many of these underlying claims have not yet been resolved, and the extent, if any, of the Company’s indemnification obligations have not been determined. Certain of these matters include speculative claims for substantial or indeterminate amounts of damages. In addition, some of the patents at issue are the subject of pending legal proceedings between the patent owners and one or more leading digital commerce companies, and the outcome of those proceedings could affect the extent to which the patent owners seek to prosecute claims against us or our customers. Our business could be materially adversely affected by any significant disputes between us and our customers as to intellectual property litigation to which we may become a party. Adverse results in these matters may include awards of substantial monetary damages, costly licensing agreements, or orders preventing us from offering certain features, functionalities, products, or services, and may also cause us to change our business practices, and require development of non-infringing products or technologies, which could result in a loss of revenues and otherwise harm our business. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has not made an accrual related to these matters. | |||||||||||||
We record a liability when we believe that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. On a quarterly basis, we review each of these legal proceedings to determine whether it is probable, reasonably possible or remote that a liability has been incurred and, if it is at least reasonably possible, whether a range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine both the likelihood of there being a loss and the estimated amount of such loss. Until the final resolution of such matters, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of the amount recorded, and such amounts could be material. We expense legal fees in the period in which they are incurred. | |||||||||||||
We are subject to audits by states on sales and income taxes, unclaimed property, employment matters, and other assessments. A comprehensive multi-state unclaimed property audit continues to be in progress, and total accruals for unclaimed property aggregated $1,850 and $1,792 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. While management believes that known and estimated unclaimed property liabilities have been adequately provided for, it is too early to determine the ultimate outcome of such audits, as formal assessments have not been finalized. Additional liabilities for this or other audits could be assessed, and such outcomes could have a material negative impact on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. |

The internal reporting structure used by our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to assess performance and allocate resources determines the basis for our reportable operating segments. Our CODM is our Chairman of the Board of Directors, and she evaluates operations and allocates resources based on a measure of operating income. | |||||||||||||
Our operations are organized under three reporting segments—the SMB segment, which serves primarily small- and medium-sized businesses; the Large Account segment, which serves primarily medium-to-large corporations; and the Public Sector segment, which serves primarily federal, state, and local government and educational institutions. In addition, the Headquarters/Other group provides services in areas such as finance, human resources, information technology, marketing, and product management. Most of the operating costs associated with the Headquarters/Other group functions are charged to the operating segments based on their estimated usage of the underlying functions. We report these charges to the operating segments as “Allocations.” Certain headquarters costs relating to executive oversight and other fiduciary functions that are not allocated to the operating segments are included under the heading of Headquarters/Other in the tables below. | |||||||||||||
Net sales presented below exclude inter-segment product revenues. Segment information applicable to our reportable operating segments for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012 is shown below: | |||||||||||||

Goodwill of $51,276 is held by our Large Account segment for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. Assets reported under the Headquarters/Other group are managed by corporate headquarters, including cash, inventory, and property and equipment. Total assets for the Headquarters/Other group are presented net of intercompany balances eliminations of $29,605 and $30,481 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Substantially, all of our sales in 2014, 2013, and 2012 were made to customers located in the United States. Shipments to customers located in foreign countries were not more than 2% of total net sales in 2014, 2013, and 2012. All of our assets at December 31, 2014 and 2013 were located in the United States. Our primary target customers are SMBs, federal, state, and local government agencies, educational institutions, and medium-to-large corporate accounts. No single customer accounted for more than 2% of total net sales in 2014, 2013, or 2012. While no single agency of the federal government comprised more than 2% of total sales, aggregate sales to the federal government were 6.5%, 6.4%, and 8.4% in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. |

Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation | ||||||||||||
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PC Connection, Inc. and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. | |||||||||||||
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements | Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements | ||||||||||||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts and disclosures of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts and disclosures of revenue and expenses during the period. By nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. | |||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition | ||||||||||||
Revenue on product sales is recognized at the point in time when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, delivery has occurred, and there is a reasonable assurance of collection of the sales proceeds. We generally obtain oral or written purchase authorizations from our customers for a specified amount of product at a specified price. Because we either (i) have a general practice of covering customer losses while products are in-transit despite title transferring at the point of shipment or (ii) have FOB–destination shipping terms specifically set out in our arrangements with federal agencies and certain commercial customers, delivery is deemed to have occurred at the point in time when the product is received by the customer. | |||||||||||||
We provide our customers with a limited thirty-day right of return generally limited to defective merchandise. Revenue is recognized at delivery and a reserve for sales returns is recorded. We make reasonable and reliable estimates of product returns based on significant historical experience and record our sales reserves as a reduction of revenues and either as offsets to accounts receivable or, for customers who have already paid, as offsets to accrued expenses. At December 31, 2014, we recorded sales reserves of $3,223 and $205 as components of accounts receivable and accrued expenses, respectively. At December 31, 2013, we recorded sales reserves of $3,060 and $208 as components of accounts receivable and accrued expenses, respectively. | |||||||||||||
All amounts billed to a customer in a sales transaction related to shipping and handling, if any, represent revenues earned for the goods provided, and these amounts have been classified as “net sales.” Costs related to such shipping and handling billings are classified as “cost of sales.” Sales are reported net of sales, use, or other transaction taxes that are collected from customers and remitted to taxing authorities. | |||||||||||||
We use our own engineering personnel in projects involving the design and installation of systems and networks, and we also engage third-party service providers to perform warranty maintenance, implementations, asset disposals, and other services. This service revenue represents a small percentage of our consolidated revenue. We evaluate such engagements to determine whether we or the third party assumes the general risk and reward of ownership in these transactions. For those transactions in which we do not assume the risk and reward but instead act as an agent, we recognize the transaction revenue on a net basis. Under net sales recognition, the cost of the third party is recorded as a reduction to the selling price, resulting in net sales being equal to the gross profit on the transaction. In those engagements in which we are the principal and primary obligor, we report the sale on a gross basis, and the cost of the service provider is recognized in cost of goods sold. | |||||||||||||
Similarly, we recognize revenue from agency sales transactions on a net sales basis. In agency sales transactions, we facilitate product sales by equipment and software manufacturers directly to our customers and receive agency, or referral, fees for such transactions. We do not take title to the products or assume any maintenance or return obligations in these transactions; title is passed directly from the supplier to our customer. | |||||||||||||
Amounts recognized on a net basis included in net sales for such third-party services and agency sales transactions were $25,696, $20,570, and $18,870 for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||
In certain revenue arrangements, our contracts require that we provide multiple units of hardware, software, or services deliverables. Under these multiple-element arrangements, each service performed and product delivered is considered a separate deliverable and qualifies as a separate unit of accounting. For material multiple element arrangements, we allocate revenue based on vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value of the underlying services and products. If we were to enter into a multiple element arrangement in which vendor-specific objective evidence was not available, we would utilize third-party evidence to allocate the selling price. If neither vendor-specific objective evidence nor third-party evidence was available, we would estimate the selling price based on market price and company specific factors. | |||||||||||||
Cost of Sales and Certain Other Costs | Cost of Sales and Certain Other Costs | ||||||||||||
Cost of sales includes the invoice cost of the product, direct employee and third party cost of services, direct costs of packaging, inbound and outbound freight, and provisions for inventory obsolescence, adjusted for discounts, rebates, and other vendor allowances. Direct operating expenses relating to our purchasing function and receiving, inspection, warehousing, packing and shipping, and other expenses of our distribution center are included in our SG&A expenses. Accordingly, our gross margin may not be comparable to those of other entities who include all of the costs related to their distribution network in cost of goods sold. Such distribution costs included in our SG&A expenses are as follows: | |||||||||||||

Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents | ||||||||||||
We consider all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of our cash equivalents approximates fair value. The majority of payments due from credit card processors and banks for third-party credit card and debit card transactions process within one to five business days. All credit card and debit card transactions that process in less than seven days are classified as cash and cash equivalents. Amounts due from banks for credit card transactions classified as cash equivalents totaled $3,863 and $5,115 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. | |||||||||||||
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable | ||||||||||||
We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based on payment history and customer creditworthiness. We maintain an allowance for estimated doubtful accounts based on our historical experience and the customer credit issues identified. Our customers do not post collateral for open accounts receivable. We monitor collections regularly and adjust the allowance for doubtful accounts as necessary to recognize any changes in credit exposure. Trade receivables are charged off in the period in which they are deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously charged are recorded when received. | |||||||||||||
Inventories | Inventories | ||||||||||||
Inventories (all finished goods) consisting of software packages, computer systems, and peripheral equipment, are stated at cost (determined under a weighted-average cost method which approximates the first-in, first-out method) or market, whichever is lower. Inventory quantities on hand are reviewed regularly, and allowances are maintained for obsolete, slow moving, and nonsalable inventory. | |||||||||||||
Vendor Allowances | Vendor Allowances | ||||||||||||
We receive allowances from merchandise vendors for price protections, discounts, product rebates, and other programs. These allowances are treated as a reduction of the vendor’s prices and are recorded as adjustments to cost of sales or inventory, as applicable. Allowances for product rebates that require certain volumes of product sales or purchases are recorded as the related milestones are probable of being met. | |||||||||||||
Advertising Costs and Allowances | Advertising Costs and Allowances | ||||||||||||
Costs of producing and distributing catalogs are charged to expense in the period in which the catalogs are first circulated. Other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. | |||||||||||||
Vendors have the ability to place advertisements in our catalogs or fund other advertising activities for which we receive advertising allowances. These vendor allowances, to the extent that they represent specific reimbursements of incremental and identifiable costs, are offset against SG&A expenses. Advertising allowances that cannot be associated with a specific program funded by an individual vendor or that exceed the fair value of advertising expense associated with that program are classified as offsets to cost of sales or inventory. Our vendor partners generally consolidate their funding of advertising and other marketing programs, and accordingly, we classify substantially all vendor consideration as a reduction of cost of sales or inventory rather than a reduction of advertising expense. Advertising expense, which is classified as a component of SG&A expenses, totaled $15,767, $18,019, and $20,029, for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment | ||||||||||||
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is provided for financial reporting purposes over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to seven years. Computer software, including licenses and internally developed software, is capitalized and amortized over lives ranging from three to seven years. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements and facilities under capital leases are amortized over the terms of the related leases or their useful lives, whichever is shorter, whereas for income tax reporting purposes, they are amortized over the applicable tax lives. | |||||||||||||
Costs incurred to develop internal-use software during the application development stage are recorded in property and equipment at cost. External direct costs of materials and services consumed in developing or obtaining internal-use computer software and payroll-related costs for employees developing internal-use computer software projects, to the extent of their time spent directly on the project and specific to application development, are capitalized. | |||||||||||||
When events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment, we evaluate the carrying value of property and equipment based upon current and anticipated undiscounted cash flows. We recognize impairment when it is probable that such estimated future cash flows will be less than the asset carrying value. | |||||||||||||
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets | ||||||||||||
Our intangible assets consist of goodwill, which is not subject to amortization, and amortizing intangibles, which consist of customer lists, trade names, and certain technology licensing agreements, which are being amortized over their useful lives. | |||||||||||||
Note 2 describes the annual impairment methodology that we employ on January 1st of each year in calculating the recoverability of goodwill. This same impairment test is performed at other times during the course of a year should an event occur or circumstance change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. | |||||||||||||
Recoverability of amortizing intangible assets is assessed only when events have occurred that may give rise to impairment. When a potential impairment has been identified, forecasted undiscounted net cash flows of the operations to which the asset relates are compared to the current carrying value of the long-lived assets present in that operation. If such cash flows are less than such carrying amounts, long-lived assets including such intangibles, are written down to their respective fair values. | |||||||||||||
Concentrations | Concentrations | ||||||||||||
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade account receivables are limited due to the large number of customers comprising our customer base. No single customer accounted for more than 2% of total net sales in 2014, 2013, and 2012. While no single agency of the federal government comprised more than 2% of total sales, aggregate sales to the federal government as a percentage of total net sales were 6.5%, 6.4%, and 8.4% in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||
Product purchases from Ingram Micro, Inc. (“Ingram”), our largest supplier, accounted for approximately 25%, 24%, and 26% of our total product purchases in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. Purchases from Synnex Corporation (“Synnex”) comprised 13%, 12%, and 14% of our total product purchases in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. Purchases from Tech Data Corporation (“Tech Data”) comprised 8% of our total product purchases in 2014 and 10% in 2013 and 2012, respectively. No other vendor supplied more than 10% of our total product purchases in 2014, 2013, or 2012. We believe that, while we may experience some short-term disruption, alternative sources for products obtained directly from Ingram, Synnex, and Tech Data are available to us. | |||||||||||||
Products manufactured by HP represented 22%, 25%, and 27% of our net sales in 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively. We believe that in the event we experience either a short-term or permanent disruption of supply of HP products, such disruption would likely have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows. | |||||||||||||

On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), its final standard on revenue from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In applying the revenue model to contracts within its scope, an entity identifies the contract(s) with a customer, identifies the performance obligations in the contract, determines the transaction price, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognizes revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 applies to all contracts with customers that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. ASU 2014-09 also requires significantly expanded disclosures about revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is effective for us on January 1, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements. |
