BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Operations The Company designs, markets and distributes branded juvenile health, safety and wellness products that are sold globally to large national retailers as well as independent retailers, primarily in North America. The Company currently markets its products in several product categories including monitoring, safety, nursery, baby gear, and feeding products. Most products are sold under our core brand names of Summer Infant®, SwaddleMe®, and Born Free®. When used herein, the terms the “Company,” we,” “us,” and “our” mean Summer Infant, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying interim, condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Accordingly, they do not include all information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire fiscal year or any other period. The balance sheet at December 30, 2017 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 30, 2017 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 20, 2018. It is the Company’s policy to prepare its financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with GAAP. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. All dollar amounts included in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are in thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share amounts. Revenue Recognition As of December 31, 2017, the Company adopted FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) . The new guidance sets forth a new five-step revenue recognition model which replaces the prior revenue recognition guidance in its entirety and is intended to eliminate numerous industry-specific pieces of revenue recognition guidance that have historically existed in U.S. GAAP. The underlying principle of the new standard is that a business or other organization will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects what it expects to receive in exchange for the goods or services. The standard also requires more detailed disclosures and provides additional guidance for transactions that were not addressed completely in the prior accounting guidance. The Company reviewed all contracts at the date of initial application and elected to use the modified retrospective transition method, where the cumulative effect of the initial application is recognized as an adjustment to opening retained earnings at December 31, 2017. Therefore, comparative prior periods have not been adjusted and continue to be reported under FASB ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, (“ASC 605”). The adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance was immaterial to the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive (loss) income, balance sheet, and cash flows as of and for the three months ending March 31, 2018. Refer to Note 2 for additional information regarding the Company’s adoption of ASC 606. The Company’s principal activities from which it generates its revenue is product sales. The Company has one reportable segment of business. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in a contract by transferring control over a product to a customer when product delivery occurs. Consideration is typically paid approximately 60 days from the time control is transferred. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in selling costs. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product to the customer, which for the Company is transfer of juvenile products to its customers. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. A transaction price is the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive under the arrangement. The Company is required to estimate variable consideration (if any) and to factor that estimation into the determination of the transaction price. The Company conducts its business with customers through valid purchase or sales orders which are considered contracts and are not interdependent on one another. Product transaction prices on a purchase or sale order are discrete and stand-alone. Purchase or sales orders may be issued under either a customer master service agreement or a reseller allowance agreement. Purchase or sales orders, master service agreements, and reseller allowance agreements which are specific and unique to each customer, may include product price discounts, markdown allowances, return allowances, and/or volume rebates which reduce the consideration due from customers. Variable consideration is estimated using the most likely amount method, which is based on our historical experience as well as current information such as sales forecasts. Contracts may also include cooperative advertising allowances, for which we receive a distinct benefit and fair value, and are recorded as selling expenses. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and related disclosures. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge as of the date the financial statements are published of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Trade receivables are carried at their outstanding unpaid principal balances reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates doubtful accounts based on historical bad debts, factors related to specific customers’ ability to pay and current economic trends. The Company writes off accounts receivable against the allowance when a balance is determined to be uncollectible. Amounts are considered to be uncollectable based upon historical experience and management’s evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable. Changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts are as follows: For the March 31, 2018 April 1, 2017 Allowance for doubtful accounts, beginning of period $ $ Charges to costs and expenses ) Allowance for doubtful accounts, end of period $ $ Inventory Valuation Inventory is comprised mostly of finished goods and some component parts and is stated at the lower of cost using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method, or net realizable value. The Company regularly reviews slow-moving and excess inventories, and writes down inventories to net realizable value if the expected net proceeds from the disposals of excess inventory are less than the carrying cost of the merchandise. Income Taxes Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method of accounting. Under the asset and liability method, a deferred income tax asset or liability is recognized for estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carry-forwards. The measurement of deferred income tax assets is adjusted by a valuation allowance, if necessary, to recognize future tax benefits only to the extent, based on available evidence, that it is more likely than not that such benefits will be realized. The net deferred tax assets and liabilities are presented as noncurrent. The Company follows the appropriate guidance relative to uncertain tax positions. This standard provides detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements. Uncertain tax positions must meet a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not in order for those tax positions to be recognized in the financial statements. Net (Loss) Income Per Share Basic (loss) earnings per share for the Company are computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive impact of outstanding stock options and unvested restricted shares. Translation of Foreign Currencies All assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, each of whose functional currency is in its local currency, are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the end of the quarter and the income and expense accounts of these affiliates have been translated at average rates prevailing during each respective quarter. Resulting translation adjustments are made to a separate component of stockholders’ equity within accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses are included in the accompanying interim, condensed consolidated statement of operations. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 which will supersede the current guidance for lease accounting and will requires lessees to recognize right-to-use assets and related lease liabilities on the balance sheet for leases with lease terms greater than twelve months and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. The effective date for the Company will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that adoption of this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements. Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. |
