Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Organization and Nature of Operations. Adesto Technologies Corporation (together with its subsidiaries; “Adesto”, “we”, “our”, “us” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of California in January 2006 and reincorporated in Delaware in October 2015. We are a leading provider of application-specific and, ultra-low power non-volatile memory (“NVM”) products. Our corporate headquarters are located in Santa Clara, California. On September 28, 2012, we purchased certain flash memory product assets from Atmel Corporation and our financial results include the operating results of those assets from the date of acquisition. Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10‑Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP to complete annual consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company and its results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018, for any other interim period or for any other future year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date, but does not include all of the disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2018. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of our operations, and the operations of our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies described in Note 1, Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2017 that have had a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, except as described below. Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-02, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. This ASU allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company expects that the adoption will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, an entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This ASU is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of the adoption of this ASU, but anticipates that the adoption will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU requires instruments measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Entities are also required to record allowances for available-for-sale debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company expects that the adoption will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. For operating leases, a lessee is required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, in the statement of financial position. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the effect that the adoption of this ASU will have on its financial statements. The Company currently expects that most of its operating lease commitments will be subject to the new standard and recognized as right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities upon the adoption of ASU 2016-02, which will increase the total assets and total liabilities that it reports relative to such amounts prior to adoption. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements. Adoption of ASC 606: In May 2014, the FASB issued an ASU on revenue from contracts with customers, ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). This standard update outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods including interim reporting reports beginning after December 15, 2017. Collectively, we refer to Topic 606, its related amendments and Subtopic 340-40 as the “new standard”. On January 1, 2018, we adopted the new standard using the modified retrospective method applied to all contracts that are not completed contracts at the date of initial application (i.e., January 1, 2018). Results for reporting periods after January 1, 2018 are presented under the new standard, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting. There was no impact on the opening accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2018 due to the adoption of the new standard. We reclassified the allowance for ship from stock and debits (“SSDs”), price protection, rights of return and other activities to current liabilities presented as "Price adjustments and other revenue reserves" from the allowance for accounts receivable due to the adoption of the new standard. We recorded s cumulative effect adjustment to our January 1, 2018 condensed consolidated balance sheet for the impact of the reclassification of the allowance for SSDs, price protection, rights of return and other activities to current liabilities presented as “Price adjustments and other revenue reserves”. The cumulative effect of the changes made to our January 1, 2018 condensed consolidated balance sheet for the adoption of the new revenue standard were as follows (in thousands): Balance at Adjustments Balance at December 31, Due to January 1, 2017 ASC 606 2018 Accounts receivable, net $ 8,668 $ 3,832 $ 12,500 Price adjustments and other revenue reserves $ — $ (3,832) $ (3,832) In accordance with the new standard requirements, the disclosure of the impact of adoption on select condensed consolidated balance sheet line items was as follows (in thousands): As of March 31, 2018 As Balances without Effect of Reported ASC 606 Change Accounts receivable, net $ 12,188 $ 7,643 $ (4,545) Price adjustments and other revenue reserves $ 4,545 $ — $ 4,545 Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Sales of products with alternative use account for the majority of our revenue and are recognized at a point in time, the timing of such recognition remained the same under Topic 606. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by us from a customer and deposited with the relevant government authority, are excluded from revenue. Our revenue arrangements do not contain significant financing components. Revenue is recognized over a period of time when it is assessed that performance obligations are satisfied over a period rather than at a point in time. When any of the following criteria is fulfilled, revenue is recognized over a period of time: (a) The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the performance as Adesto performs. (b) Adesto’s performance creates or enhances an asset (for example, work in process) that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced. (c) Adesto’s performance does not create an asset with an alternative use, and Adesto has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. If revenue is recognized over a period of time, we would then select an appropriate method for measuring progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation, usually costs incurred to date relative to the total expected costs to the satisfaction of that performance obligation. Typically, our revenue is recognized at a point in time. Sales to certain distributors are made under arrangements which provide the distributors with price adjustments, price protection, stock rotation and other allowances under certain circumstances. These adjustments and allowances are accounted for as variable consideration. We estimate these amounts based on the expected amount to be provided to customers and reduce revenue recognized. We believe that there will not be significant changes to our estimates of variable consideration. If a customer pays consideration, or Adesto has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional before we transfer a good or service to the customer, those amounts are classified as deferred income/ advances received from customers which are included in other current liabilities or other long-term liabilities when the payment is made or it is due, whichever is earlier. If the arrangement includes variable contingent consideration, we recognize revenue over time if we can reasonably measure its progress, or we are capable of providing reliable information that would be required to apply an appropriate method of measuring progress. To date, we have not had any arrangements incorporating contingent consideration. Practical Expedients and Elections Sales commissions are owed and are recorded at the time of sell through of our products to end customers. These costs are recorded within sales and marketing expenses. We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed. We have elected to account for shipping and handling costs as fulfillment costs after the customer obtains control of the goods. These costs are recorded in cost of revenue. Reclassifications. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods’ consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not result in any change in previously reported total assets, stockholders’ equity or net loss. Use of Estimates. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate those estimates, including those related to allowances for doubtful accounts, reserves for sales, warranty accrual, inventory write-downs, valuation of long-lived assets, including property and equipment and identifiable intangible assets and goodwill, loss on purchase commitments, valuation of deferred taxes and contingencies. In addition, we use assumptions when employing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock options granted and Monte Carlo simulation techniques to value certain restricted stock units with performance-based vesting conditions. We base our estimates of the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, when these carrying values are not readily available from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Product Warranty. Our products are sold with a limited warranty for a period of one year, warranting that the product conforms to specifications and is free from material defects in design, materials and workmanship. To date, we have had insignificant returns of any defective production parts. During the year ended December 31, 2015, we recorded $250,000 for a specific potential warranty claim. During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, $185,000 and $41,000, respectively, has been incurred relating to this potential warranty claim and during the year ended December 31, 2017 we recorded $27,000 for an additional potential warranty claim. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the warranty accrual was $51,000 and is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Foreign Currency Translation. The functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries is the local currency. In consolidation, we translate assets and liabilities at exchange rates in effect at the consolidated balance sheet date. We translate revenue and expense accounts at the average exchange rates during the period in which the transaction takes place. Net losses from foreign currency translation of assets and liabilities were $17,000 and $22,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and are included in the cumulative translation adjustment component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, a component of stockholders’ equity. Net gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency were a loss of $8,000 and a gain of $13,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and are included in other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Concentration of Risk. Our products are primarily manufactured, assembled and tested by third-party foundries and other contractors in Asia and we are heavily dependent on a single foundry in Taiwan for the manufacture of wafers and a single contractor in the Philippines for assembly and testing of our products. We do not have long-term agreements with either of these suppliers. A significant disruption in the operations of these parties would adversely impact the production of our products for a substantial period of time, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivables. We place substantially all of our cash and cash equivalents on deposit with a reputable, high credit quality financial institution in the United States of America. We believe that the bank that holds substantially all of our cash and cash equivalents is financially sound and, accordingly, subject to minimal credit risk. Deposits held with the bank may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. We generally do not require collateral or other security in support of accounts receivable. We periodically review the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the accounts receivable balances and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. As a result of our favorable collection experience and customer concentration, there was no allowance for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. Customer concentrations as a percentage of revenue, net were as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 2017 Customer A 18 % 18 % Customer B * 11 % Customer C * 11 % * Customer concentrations as a percentage of gross accounts receivable were as follows: March 31, December 31, 2018 2017 Customer A 26 % 31 % Customer B * * Customer C * * * |
