SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2019 included on the Company's Form 10-K. The results of the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2020. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2020 and the results of operations and cash flows presented herein have been included in the interim financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the full year. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company's accounting estimates include the collectability of receivables, useful lives of long lived assets and recoverability of those assets, impairment in fair value of goodwill, valuation allowances for income taxes, stock based compensation. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, eVance, Securus, CrowdPay, and OMNISOFT. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Net Loss per Share Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the period. The weighted average number of common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 does not include warrants to acquire 40,000 shares of common stock because of their anti-dilutive effect. The weighted average number of common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 includes 59,701 and 2,222 options, respectively, due to the nominal exercise price of the options. The weighted average number of common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 does not include 225,471 and 276,284 options, respectively, to purchase common stock because of their anti-dilutive effect. Revenue Recognition and Cost of Revenues The Company receives a percentage of recurring monthly transaction related fees comprised of credit and debit card fees charged to merchants, net of association fees, otherwise known as Interchange, as well as certain service charges and convenience fees, for payment processing services, including authorization, capture, clearing, settlement and information reporting of electronic transactions. Fees are calculated on either a percentage of the dollar volume of the transaction or a fixed fee or a hybrid of the two and are recognized at the time of the transaction. In the case of "wholesale" residual revenue in which the Company has a direct contractual relationship with the merchant, bears risk of chargebacks and performs underwriting on the merchants, the Company records the full discount charged to the merchant as revenue and the related interchange and other processing fees as expenses. In cases of residual revenue where the Company is not responsible for merchant underwriting and has no chargeback liability and has no or limited contractual relationship with the merchant, the Company records the amount it receives from the processor net of interchange and other processing fees as revenue. Disaggregation of Revenue The following table presents the Company's revenue disaggregated by revenue source: For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 2020 2019 Revenue from contracts with customers: Wholesale contracts $ 1,420,039 $ 1,583,369 Retail contracts $ 646,517 $ 626,189 Other transaction and processing fees $ 547,437 $ 381,336 Total transactions and processing fees $ 2,613,993 $ 2,590,894 The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606"). The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps: ● Identification of a contract with a customer; ● Identification of the performance obligations in the contract; ● Determination of the transaction price; ● Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and ● Recognition of revenue when or as the performance obligations are satisfied. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Shipping and handling activities associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment activity and recognized as revenue at the point in time at which control of the goods transfers to the customer. As a practical expedient, the Company does not adjust the transaction price for the effects of a significant financing component if, at contract inception, the period between customer payment and the transfer of goods or services is expected to be one year or less. Transaction and processing fees Fees for the Company's transaction and processing arrangements are typically billed and paid on a monthly basis. The Company receives a percentage of recurring monthly transaction related fees comprised of credit and debit card fees charged to merchants, net of association fees, otherwise known as Interchange, as well as certain service charges and convenience fees, for payment processing services, including authorization, capture, clearing, settlement and information reporting of electronic transactions. Fees are calculated on either a percentage of the dollar, volume of the transaction or a fixed fee or a hybrid of the two and are recognized at the time of the transaction. These merchant services represents a single performance obligation satisfied over time and that the same measure of progress should be used to measure the Company's progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. The Company will recognize revenue on a monthly basis as the services are transferred to the customer in short daily increments that qualify for series guidance as the best measure of the transfer of control. In wholesale contracts, the Company recognizes transaction and processing fees on a gross basis as the Company is the principal in the merchant services. The Company has concluded it is the principal because it has a direct contractual relationship with the merchant, is primarily responsible for the delivery of services to the merchants, including performing underwriting, has discretion in setting prices, and bears risk of chargebacks and other merchant losses. The Company also has the unilateral ability to accept or reject a transaction based on criteria established by the Company. As the principal, the Company records the full discount charged to the merchant as revenue and the related interchange and other processing fees within cost of revenues. In retail contracts, the Company is not responsible for merchant underwriting, has no chargeback liability and has no or limited contractual relationship with the merchant. As such, the Company records the net amount it receives from the processor, after interchange and other interchange and other processing fees, as revenue. Merchant equipment sales and other The Company generates revenue through the sale and rental of merchant equipment. The Company satisfies its performance obligation upon delivery of equipment to merchants and recognizes revenue at a point in time. The Company allows for customer returns which are accounted for as variable consideration. The Company estimates these amounts based on historical experience and reduces revenue recognized. The Company invoices customers upon delivery of the equipment to merchants, and payments from such customers are due upon invoicing. The Company offers hardware installment sales to customers with terms ranging from three to forty-eight months. The Company allocates a portion of the consideration received from these arrangements to a financing component when it determines that a significant financing component exists. The financing component is subsequently recognized as financing revenue separate from hardware revenue, within subscription and services-based revenue, over the terms of the arrangement with the customer. Pursuant to practical expedients afforded under ASC 606, the Company does not recognize a financing component for hardware installment sales that have a term of one year or less. Deferred Revenue From time to time the Company may launch new products or services to its merchants. In the event step 1 under ASC 606 is not met, the Company will record deferred revenue upon receipt of the payment by the customer. In November 2019, the Company began billing existing merchants for its cloud-based omni-channels software, ShopFast. Merchants are billed monthly with the ability to opt out and receive a refund for up to 30 days after they are billed. Due to the lack of historical data related to these services, customer activity and the associated billings and refunds, $99,594 was recorded as deferred revenue as of December 31, 2019. All of the deferred revenue, net of any refunds, was recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company determined it had sufficient information to determine Step 1 was achieved, and therefore recognized all revenue that was previously deferred. As such, $99,594 of revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2020 pertained to services provided in the prior period. Recent Accounting Standards In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance, ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, and ASU 2019-11 (collectively, Topic 326), to introduce a new impairment model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses (CECL). Under Topic 326, an entity is required to estimate CECL on available-for-sale (AFS) debt securities only when the fair value is below the amortized cost of the asset and is no longer based on an impairment being "other-than-temporary" and is required to estimate CECL on trade receivables at inception, based on historical information, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable . Topic 326 also requires the impairment calculation on an individual security level and requires an entity use present value of cash flows when estimating the CECL. The credit-related losses are required to be recognized through earnings and non-credit related losses are reported in other comprehensive income. In April 2019, the FASB further clarified the scope of Topic 326 and addressed issues related to accrued interest receivable balances, recoveries, variable interest rates and prepayment. The new guidance will require modified retrospective application to all outstanding instruments, with a cumulative effect adjustment recorded to opening retained earnings as of the beginning of the first period in which the guidance becomes effective. The amendments in this Update for the Company are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period after the issuance of this of this Update. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of the new standard on its consolidated financial statement and disclosures. |
