Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
NATURE OF OPERATIONS	ForceField Energy Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“ForceField” or the “Company”) is a contractor that distributes and installs light emitting diode (“LED”) and traditional lighting products for both indoor and outdoor commercial applications. The Company generates revenue by selling commercial grade lighting products and its installation services for use in both commercial and municipal markets. The marketing and distribution of such products and services occurs primarily through internal sales resources. On March 5, 2015, the Company completed a sale of its 50.3% equity interest in TransPacific Energy, Inc. (“TPE”) back to certain current and former TPE shareholders. As a result of the transaction, the Company’s operations are now comprised of only one reportable segment for financial reporting purposes. See “Note 5 – Business Divestitures” for additional information. On May 1, 2015, the Company closed its offices in Costa Rica and Mexico. The wind down of business activities at each of these locations was completed by July 31, 2015. Pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated June 30, 2015, ESCO Energy Services, LLC purchased from the Company all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ESCO Energy Services Company (“ESCO”). See “Note 5 – Business Divestitures” for additional information.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information. All amounts are expressed in United States dollars. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted as allowed by such rules and regulations, and management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited consolidated financial statements include all of the adjustments which in the opinion of management are necessary to a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes and other information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results of operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2015 or for any other future period. Going Concern These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has generated significant operating losses which have been funded primarily from debt and equity financings. In addition, the Company is in default of, or past due on, numerous payments related to principal and interest due on notes payable, vendor payables and other accrued liabilities. The Company is addressing its delinquencies on a case-by-case basis; however, it can offer no assurance that the cooperation it has received thus far will continue. The continuing operations of the Company and the recoverability of the carrying value of assets is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund its working capital requirements, and upon achieving future profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relative to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There can be no assurance that new capital will be available as necessary to meet the Company's working capital requirements or, if the capital is available, that it will be on terms acceptable to the Company. The issuances of additional equity securities by the Company may result in significant dilution in the equity interests of its current stockholders. Obtaining new debt capital, assuming such debt capital would be available, will increase the Company's liabilities and future cash commitments. If the Company is unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable, the business and future success may be adversely affected and the Company may cease operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding its ability to continue as a going concern. Predecessor and Successor Reporting On April 25, 2014, the Company acquired 17th Street ALD Management Corp (“ALD” or “American Lighting”), a leading commercial lighting specialist based in San Diego, California. The transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that the assets purchased and the liabilities assumed all be reported in the acquirer's financial statements at their fair value, with any excess purchase price over the net assets being reported as goodwill. The application of the acquisition method of accounting represented a change in accounting basis. Accordingly, the financial statements and certain note presentations separate the Company’s presentations into two distinct periods, the period before the consummation of the transaction (labeled “Predecessor”) and the period after that date (labeled “Successor”), to indicate the application of the different basis of accounting between the periods presented. For financial reporting purposes, ALD was deemed to be the predecessor company and ForceField was deemed to be the successor company in accordance with the rules and regulations issued by the SEC. This change in accounting basis is represented in the unaudited consolidated financial statements by a vertical black line which appears between the columns entitled "Predecessor" and "Successor" on the statements and in the relevant notes. The black line signifies that the amounts shown for the periods prior to and subsequent to the acquisition may not be comparable. The predecessor account balances and results of operations are effective through April 30, 2014, as the impact of transactions recorded from April 26, 2014 through April 30, 2014 was not material. Principles of Consolidation These unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Discontinued Operations In May 2015, the Company’s board of directors authorized its management to pursue the sale of ESCO. A sale was completed on June 30, 2015. As a result, ESCO’s results of operations have been reclassified as discontinued operations on a retrospective basis for all periods presented. See “Note 6 — Discontinued Operations” for additional information. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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. The most significant estimates relate to revenue recognition, valuation of accounts receivable and inventories, purchase price allocation of acquired businesses, impairment of long lived assets and goodwill, valuation of financial instruments, income taxes, and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known or expected trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable given the quality of information available as of the date of these financial statements. The results of these assumptions provide the basis for making estimates about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Change in Accounting Policy In 2014, the Company changed its accounting policy related to revenue recognition from the completed contracts method to the percentage-of-completion method. Under the new policy, revenue is measured by evaluating the percentage of total costs incurred to date against the estimated total costs for each contract. The impact of the change in accounting policy on the September 30, 2014 financial statements resulted in an increase to sales of $285,171 and an increase to cost of goods sold of $209,895. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue on the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of total costs incurred to date against the estimated total costs for each contract. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Profit incentives are included in revenue when their realization is reasonably assured. An amount equal to contract costs attributable to claims is included in revenue when realization is probable and the amount can be reliably estimated. The asset, costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, represents revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability, billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, represents billings in excess of revenue recognized. Revenue from rebates from utilities may be recognized on eligible energy-efficient lighting retrofit projects. These rebates are simultaneously credited against the quoted contract price and assigned to the Company by the customer. The Company is responsible for the application of the rebate, and bears the risk of any loss from the verification and collection of the rebate. Revenue from rebates from utilities totaled $49,713 and $236,890, respectively for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, as compared to $280,827 and $1,373,613, respectively, during the corresponding periods in the prior year. Certain rebates from utility companies are subject to refund rights in the event that specified energy savings are not met. The Company assesses each retrofit project subject to refund rights to determine if the estimated energy savings are likely to be met. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were no retrofit projects subject to this refund right that were not expected to meet the specified energy savings. The utility companies providing the retrofit rebate, at their discretion, can audit the Company's customer installations prior to payment. These audits often result in an adjustment to the rebate, which is netted against revenues. A reserve for adjustments is recorded based upon current period sales and the Company’s historical experience factor in recording such rebate adjustments. During the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, the adjustments to rebates from utilities totaled ($120) and ($5,813), respectively, as compared to ($3,446) and ($65,592), respectively, during the corresponding periods in the prior year. These amounts are netted in the Company’s accounts receivable and revenue. Fair Value Measurements The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: ● Level 1 ● Level 2 ● Level 3 Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2015. The Company uses the market approach to measure fair value for its Level 1 financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The respective carrying value of certain balance sheet financial instruments approximates its fair value. These financial instruments include cash, trade receivables, related party payables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings. Fair values were estimated to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments since they are short term in nature and they are receivable or payable on demand. The estimated fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations and reporting units and long-lived assets used in the related asset impairment tests utilize inputs classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company determines the fair value of contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. The fair value remeasurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in the fair value hierarchy. In each period, the Company reassesses its current estimates of performance relative to the stated targets and adjusts the liability to fair value. Any such adjustments are included as a component of Other Income (Expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2015: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Earnout liability $ — $ — $ — The following table summarizes the change in the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2015: 2015 Fair value, January 1, 2015 $ 641,000 Fair value of contingent consideration issued during the period — Change in fair value (641,000 ) Fair value, September 30, 2015 $ — Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the future economic benefit arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. The goodwill arising from the Company’s acquisitions is attributable to the value of the potential expanded market opportunity with new customers. Intangible assets have either an identifiable or indefinite useful life. Intangible assets with identifiable useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their economic or legal life, whichever is shorter. The Company’s amortizable intangible assets consist of customer relationships, distribution and licensing agreements, non-compete agreements and technology. Their useful lives range from 0.5 to 15 years. The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of trade names. Goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are not amortized, but are subject to annual impairment testing unless circumstances dictate more frequent assessments. The Company performs an annual impairment assessment for goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year and more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the asset may be less than the carrying amount. Goodwill impairment testing is a two-step process performed at the reporting unit level. Step one compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined by considering both the income approach and market approaches. The fair values calculated under the income approach and market approaches are weighted based on circumstances surrounding the reporting unit. Under the income approach, the Company determines fair value based on estimated future cash flows of the reporting unit, which are discounted to the present value using discount factors that consider the timing and risk of cash flows. For the discount rate, the Company relies on the capital asset pricing model approach, which includes an assessment of the risk-free interest rate, the rate of return from publicly traded stocks, the Company’s risk relative to the overall market, the Company’s size and industry and other Company specific risks. Other significant assumptions used in the income approach include the terminal value, growth rates, future capital expenditures and changes in future working capital requirements. The market approaches use key multiples from guideline businesses that are comparable and are traded on a public market. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, there is no impairment. If the reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, then the second step must be completed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. Step two calculates the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit as calculated in step one. In this step, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities in a hypothetical purchase price allocation as if the reporting unit had been acquired on that date. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates, strategic plans and future market conditions, among others. There can be no assurance that the Company’s estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the goodwill impairment testing will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. Changes in assumptions and estimates could cause the Company to perform impairment test prior to scheduled annual impairment tests scheduled in the fourth quarter. Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances have indicated that an asset may not be recoverable. The long-lived asset is grouped with other assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the assets are written down to the estimated fair value. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net earnings and financial position. Recent accounting pronouncements The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Business Divestitures
Business divestitures	TransPacific Energy, Inc. In February 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the sale of its waste heat recovery (“Organic Rankine Cycle” or “ORC”) business due to its lack of operating performance and as part of a settlement of certain lawsuits filed by and against both TPE and the Company. On March 5, 2015, the Company completed such sale of its 50.3% equity interest in TPE back to certain current and former TPE shareholders. In exchange for its equity interest, ForceField received $50,000 in cash proceeds and the return of 255,351 shares of the Company’s common stock originally issued in May 2012 when it acquired the equity interest in TPE. The Company analyzed the divestment of its ORC business for discontinued operations reporting consideration. As the divestment did not represent a strategic shift expected to have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, the Company determined that discontinued operations reporting was not applicable. Additionally, the Company analyzed the results of its ORC business for segment reporting consideration. ASC 280 “Segment Reporting” establishes that an operating segment is considered a reportable segment if: (i) it engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and generate expenses, its operating results are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, and discrete financial information is available; and (ii) it exceeds certain quantitative thresholds. At the time of the divestment, the Company’s ORC business did not exceed any of the prescribed quantitative thresholds. As such, the Company determined that segment reporting was not applicable. As a result of the transaction, the Company’s operations are now comprised of only one reportable segment for financial reporting purposes. The operating results of the Company’s ORC business for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 are summarized below: Successor Nine Months Ended September 30, Period from April 26 through September 30, 2015 2014 Sales $ — $ — Cost of goods sold — — Gross margin — — Operating expenses: Depreciation and amortization 17,589 43,972 Selling and marketing 752 958 General and administrative (2,816 ) 13,280 Professional fees 4,340 36,690 Total operating expenses 19,865 94,900 Loss from continuing operations before other income (expense) and income taxes (19,865 ) (94,900 ) Other income (expense) Interest income (expense), net 8 54 Total other income (expense) 8 54 Loss from continuing operations before income taxes (19,857 ) (94,846 ) Provision for income taxes (benefit) (7,006 ) — Net loss from continuing operations (12,851 ) (94,846 ) Discontinued operations, net of income taxes — — Net loss from continuing operations (12,851 ) (94,846 ) Less: Accretion of preferred stock — — Less: Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests — (47,136 ) Net loss attributable to ForceField Energy Inc. stockholders $ (12,851 ) $ (47,710 ) No results of operations for the Company’s ORC segment were reported in the period January 1 through April 25, 2014 as those results pertain solely to ALD as the predecessor entity. ESCO Energy Services Company Pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated as of June 30, 2015 (the “Agreement”) by and among the Company, ESCO Energy Services, LLC (the “Buyer”), Mitchell Barack and ESCO Energy Services Company (“ESCO”), the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, the Buyer purchased from the Company all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ESCO. Mr. Barack is sole owner of all of the issued and outstanding member interests of the Buyer. Prior to the Agreement, Mr. Barack served as a director and the chief executive officer of ESCO. In connection with the Buyer’s acquisition of ESCO from the Company, the following occurred: ● Mr. Barack paid $900,000 in cash to the Company, which was received on July 2, 2015; ● Mr. Barack and certain employees of ESCO returned to the Company 366,845 and 87,700 shares of restricted common stock of the Company, respectively, which shares were issued to such persons by the Registrant pursuant to the October 17, 2014 stock purchase agreement (these shares were valued at their fair market value of $31,818, or $0.07 per share, and recorded to “Common Stock Held in Treasury, at Cost” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2015); ● Mr. Barack cancelled two promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,230,355 issued to him by the Company in connection with the October 17, 2014 stock purchase agreement. Additionally, Mr. Barack and certain employees of ESCO returned 8,216 and 9,200 shares, respectively, that had been issued to them by the Company post-acquisition, in return for extending the post-closing due dates on the two promissory notes; ● Mr. Barack returned to the Company 687,500 shares of restricted common stock of the Company, which secured the Company’s obligations under one of the two notes; ● Certain ESCO employees cancelled $750,000 in unpaid purchase consideration obligations due from the Company relating to October 17, 2014 stock purchase agreement; and ● The Company cancelled a $1,250,000 intercompany loan due from ESCO. As a result of the divestment, the Company realized a net gain of $1,060,430. ESCO’s results of operations have been reclassified as discontinued operations on a retrospective basis for all periods presented (see “Note 6 – Discontinued Operations” for additional information).

Discontinued Operations:
Discontinued Operations	In May 2015, the Company’s board of directors authorized its management to pursue the sale of its ESCO subsidiary. A sale was completed on June 30, 2015 (see “Note 5 – Business Divestments” for additional information). ASC 205-20 “Discontinued Operations” establishes that the disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity should be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. As a result, ESCO’s results of operations have been reclassified as discontinued operations on a retrospective basis for all periods presented. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of this component are separately reported as “assets and liabilities of discontinued operations held for sale” as of December 31, 2014. The results of operations of this component, for all periods, are separately reported as “discontinued operations”. A reconciliation of the major classes of line items constituting the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes as is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 is summarized below: Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 Sales $ 1,875,670 Cost of goods sold 2,276,007 Gross margin (400,337 ) Operating expenses: Depreciation and amortization 374,543 Selling and marketing 13,444 General and administrative 1,055,554 Professional fees 57,911 Impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets 9,156,190 Total operating expenses 10,657,642 Loss from operations before other income (expense) and income taxes (11,057,979 ) Other income (expense) Interest income (expense), net (859 ) Other gains (losses) 2,685,000 Total other income (expense) 2,684,141 Loss from continuing operations before income taxes (8,373,838 ) Provision for income taxes (benefit) (409,200 ) Loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations $ (7,964,638 ) At March 31, 2015, as a result of deteriorating business conditions and significant delays associated with new business opportunities, the Company performed the impairment test as prescribed by ASC 350 on the carrying value of its goodwill and recorded an impairment charge totaling $6,993,784. Additionally, at March 31, 2015, the Company performed an interim impairment test for long-lived assets and determined that the carrying amount of certain intangible assets were not recoverable as its undiscounted cash flows were less than its carrying amount. The Company further determined that the fair value of the asset group was less than its carrying value and therefore impairment must be recorded. The Company used the discounted cash flow method under the income approach to determine the fair value of the asset group. The impairment amount was determined by allocating the shortfall of fair value as compared to the carrying amount to each long-lived asset in the asset group on a pro rata basis using the relative carrying amount of the assets, except the carrying amount of each asset cannot be reduced below its fair value. To determine the fair value of each long-lived asset, the Company used the relief from royalty method for its trade names and estimated the fair value for its customer relationships using the multi-period excess earnings method. As a result, the Company recorded impairment charges totaling $2,162,406 for these intangible assets. No results of operations for ESCO were reported in the period from April 26 through September 30, 2014 as ESCO was acquired on October 17, 2014 or in the period from January 1 through April 25, 2014 as those results pertain solely to ALD as the predecessor entity. The following table presents the reconciliation of carrying amounts of major classes of assets and liabilities of ESCO classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2014: Successor December 31, 2014 Carrying amounts of major classes of assets included as part of discontinued operations Current assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 172,925 Accounts receivable, net 2,593,743 Costs and earnings in excess of billings 525,432 Inventory, net 48,552 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 37,790 Total current assets included in the disposal group classified as held for sale 3,378,442 Property and equipment, net 137,628 Goodwill 8,658,492 Intangible assets, net 4,465,427 Other assets 5,181 Total noncurrent assets included in the disposal group classified as held for sale 13,266,728 Total assets of the disposal group classified as held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets $ 16,645,170 Carrying amounts of major classes of liabilities included as part of discontinued operations Current liabilities: Accounts payable $ 1,164,889 Accrued liabilities 602,342 Billings in excess of costs and earnings 836,975 Loans payable -- current 12,644 Senior secured promissory notes, net — current 255,355 Related party payables 507,500 Income taxes payable 2,999 Total current liabilities included in the disposal group classified as held for sale 3,382,704 Loans payable 10,384 Senior secured promissory notes, net of loan discounts 1,998,479 Deferred tax liabilities, net -- noncurrent 1,143,600 Contingent purchase consideration 2,685,000 Other noncurrent liabilities 425,000 Total noncurrent liabilities included in the disposal group classified as held for sale 6,262,463 Total liabilities of the disposal group classified as held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets 9,645,167 Net assets held for sale $ 7,000,003 On October 17, 2014, the Company issued two secured promissory notes to the former stockholder of ESCO in connection with its acquisition. The first note totaled $2,075,000, bears interest at 6.02% per annum and is due in April 17, 2016. The note is collateralized by 687,500 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock which under no circumstances can become free trading prior to its maturity date. In determining the fair value of the promissory notes issued, the Company considered, among other factors, the market yields on debt securities depending on the time horizon and level of perceived risk of the specific investment. The Company arrived at an estimated market rate of 9% and calculated the present value of the $2,075,000 promissory note and its related interest to be $1,989,539. As a result, the Company recorded a discount against the promissory notes of $85,461. The discount was being amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the notes. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded $27,633 in interest expense related to the note discount. The remaining unamortized balance of $48,888 at June 30, 2015 was written off and recorded as a component of gain on sale of discontinued operations, net of taxes. The second note totaled $1,075,000 and was due on November 16, 2014 along with an interest payment of $45,000. The note is collateralized by all of the assets of ESCO. On April 3, 2015, the Company entered into a note amendment and security interest termination agreement with the stockholder to amend and extend the original terms. At that time, all but $155,355 of the principal balance was repaid. Pursuant to the stock purchase agreement, dated as of June 30, 2015, by and among the Company, ESCO Energy Services, LLC, Mitchell Barack and ESCO, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Mr. Barack cancelled the two promissory notes, plus all accrued interest, in the aggregate principal amount of $2,230,355 issued to him by the Company.

On March 5, 2015, the Company and Noveda Technologies, Inc. (“Noveda”) agreed to amend the terms of a license agreement entered into on December 1, 2014 which granted the Company exclusive rights over a five year period to sell, market and distribute Noveda’s technology on LED applications in North America. During 2014, the Company made payments to Noveda of $142,500 in cash and 25,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $137,000 under the provisions of a non-binding letter of intent entered into by the Company to acquire Noveda. During 2015, by mutual agreement, the acquisition discussions were discontinued, and $279,500 in consideration described above, was applied as payment towards, and in full satisfaction of, the remaining fees payable to Noveda under the terms of the license agreement. At June 30, 2015, the Company performed an interim impairment test for long-lived assets and determined that the carrying amount of its exclusive distribution rights with Shanghai Lightsky Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. was not recoverable as its undiscounted cash flows were less than its carrying amount. The Company further determined that the fair value of the asset group was less than its carrying value and therefore impairment must be recorded. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge totaling $377,000. At September 30, 2015, the Company performed an interim impairment test for long-lived assets and determined that the carrying amount of its exclusive distribution rights with Noveda was not recoverable as its undiscounted cash flows were less than its carrying amount. The Company further determined that the fair value of the asset group was less than its carrying value and therefore impairment must be recorded.

DEBT	Convertible Debentures The following table sets forth the components of the Company’s convertible debentures at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014: September 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 7% Convertible debentures $ 200,000 $ 200,000 9% Convertible debentures 3,610,000 3,210,000 Loan discounts — (410,334 ) Total convertible debentures, net 3,810,000 2,999,666 Less: Current portion of convertible debentures, net 3,810,000 50,000 Noncurrent portion of convertible debentures net $ — $ 2,949,666 During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company privately placed a series of unsecured, convertible debentures with accredited investors for gross proceeds of $900,000 (of which $300,000 was raised during the predecessor period of January 1 through April 25, 2014). The debentures carry interest rates ranging between 7% and 9% per annum, payable semiannually in cash, for a three-year terms with fixed conversion prices ranging from $5.00 to $7.00 per share if converted within the first year of issuance or fixed conversion prices ranging from $6.00 to $9.00 if converted during the second or third year following issuance. On October 15, 2014, the Company converted, upon receiving formal notice from a noteholder, $50,000 in note principal, plus accrued interest, into 10,450 shares of restricted common stock. On October 31, 2014, the Company issued an unsecured, convertible debenture for $610,000 to an accredited investor. The debenture carries an interest rate of 9% per annum for a seventeen-month term with a fixed conversion price of $5.50 per share. The principal and interest are payable in twelve equal installments commencing April 30, 2015. The investor received 15,000 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $95,100 as consideration for entering into the debenture agreement. On January 12, 2015, the Company issued an unsecured, convertible debenture for $400,000 to an accredited investor. The cost of this issuance was $28,000. The debenture carries an interest rate of 9% per annum, payable semiannually in cash, for an eighteen-month term with a fixed conversion price of $5.50 per share. The investor received 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $32,150 as consideration for entering into the debenture agreement. All of the convertible debentures were analyzed at the time of their issuance for beneficial conversion features. In some instances, the Company concluded that a beneficial conversion feature existed. The beneficial conversion features were measured using the commitment-date stock price and aggregated $624,140. This amount was recorded as a debt discount and is being amortized as interest expense over the terms of the related convertible debentures. The debt discount associated with these beneficial conversion features amounted to nil and $410,334 as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The related amortization expense totaled $1,061 and $97,625, respectively, for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, as compared to $26,758 and $44,596, respectively, for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014. In addition, the Company analyzed its convertible debentures for derivative accounting consideration and determined that derivative accounting was not applicable. On April 30, 2015, the Company was required to pay $50,833 in principal, along with accrued interest of approximately $28,000, per the terms of a convertible note. The Company failed to make this payment. On May 13, 2015, the Company received a letter from the noteholder’s counsel alleging certain breaches and declaring the note to be in default. The interest rate on the convertible note increased from 9.0% to 22.0% per annum as a result of the default. The noteholder has made a demand for payment and is seeking to enforce all of its contractual, legal and equitable rights under the convertible note and related agreements. The original principal balance outstanding on the convertible note is $610,000 and is presented as a current liability on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The note is unsecured. On July 12, 2015, the Company was required to pay $18,000 in interest per the terms of a $400,000 convertible note dated January 12, 2015. The Company failed to make this payment. On July 27, 2015, the Company received a notice of default. The interest rate on the convertible note increased from 9.0% to 15.0% per annum as a result of the default and the noteholder is entitled to $20,000 in legal fees. The noteholder advised the Company that it reserves any and all rights and remedies to protect its interests under the terms of the convertible note. The Company is in default for failure to pay interest on fourteen additional convertible notes during the current year period with an aggregate principal balance of $2,800,000. The interest rate on these notes ranges between 7% and 9% per annum, and does not increase in the event of a default. The principal amounts on these unsecured notes are presented as current liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result of the defaults noted above, the Company accelerated the amortization of all deferred financing costs and beneficial conversion features associated with these convertible notes. These charges totaled $519,557 and were recorded to interest expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. At September 30, 2015, the underlying shares of the Company’s common stock related to these convertible debentures totaled 614,193 shares. Senior, Secured Promissory Notes The following table sets forth the components of the Company’s promissory notes at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014: September 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 Promissory notes $ 300,000 $ 2,000,000 Loan discounts — (11,997 ) Total promissory notes, net 300,000 1,988,003 Less: Current portion of convertible debentures, net 300,000 1,988,003 Noncurrent portion of convertible debentures net $ — $ — On April 25, 2014, the Company issued a series of promissory notes aggregating in $1,000,000 principal to the former stockholders of ALD in connection with its acquisition. The promissory notes carry an interest rate of 5% per annum, payable at maturity, for a one year term and are secured by the assets of ALD. In determining the fair value of the promissory notes issued, the Company considered, among other factors, the market yields on debt securities depending on the time horizon and level of perceived risk of the specific investment. The Company arrived at an estimated market rate of 9% and calculated the present value of the $1,000,000 promissory note and its related interest to be $965,019. As a result, the Company recorded a discount against the promissory notes of $34,981. The discount is being amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the notes. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded $11,997 in interest expense related to the note discount. No discount balance remained unamortized at September 30, 2015. On April 24, 2015, the Company was informed by the counsel of the former ALD stockholders that the failure to pay all of the principal and accrued interest on the outstanding promissory notes would result in the declaration of default, and that absent full payment of the notes by the maturity date, the former stockholders would commence collection proceedings and seek to enforce all of their contractual, legal and equitable rights under the note and related agreements. These notes were not repaid at their maturity date. On July 21, 2015, the Company entered into an amendment with the noteholders, whereby they agreed to discontinue their collection and collateral foreclosure efforts against ForceField and to restructure the maturity dates of the obligation in return for the following payments: ● A payment of $650,000 by the Company against the past due loan balance of $1,062,688. ● A payment of $50,000 by the Company for legal fees incurred by the noteholders. Going forward, the Company agreed to pay monthly installments of $25,000 against the remaining principal and interest balance of $412,688 due to the noteholders. The outstanding obligation will accrue interest at 5% per annum. The noteholders, among other terms, retained a security interest in all of the assets of ALD until the remaining obligation is fully satisfied. As of September 30, 2015, the remaining principal and interest balance totaled $370,833. On October 13, 2014, the Company received $1,000,000 in loan proceeds from an accredited investor pursuant to the terms of a secured promissory note. The promissory note was due and payable in full by the Company on December 5, 2014. As consideration for loaning these proceeds to the Company, the investor was entitled to receive a $40,000 interest payment along with the principal at maturity. This loan was secured by 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock owned by its former executive chairman. On December 26, 2014, the Company repaid all principal and accrued interest amounts associated with this promissory note. On December 21, 2014, the Company received $1,000,000 in loan proceeds from an accredited investor pursuant to the terms of a secured promissory note. The promissory note was due and payable in full by the Company on March 5, 2015 and was secured by 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock owned by its former executive chairman, Richard St Julien. As consideration for loaning these proceeds to the Company, the investor was entitled to receive a $50,000 interest payment along with the principal at maturity. On March 5, 2015, the Company paid $50,000 to satisfy the accrued interest due on the promissory note. On March 31, 2015, the Company issued 181,818 shares of its common stock along with an equal number of common stock purchase warrants in lieu of cash to satisfy the $1,000,000 principal payment owed to the noteholder. The fair value of the common stock was $1,363,635. The stock purchase warrants have been accounted for as equity in accordance with ASC 480. Using the Black-Scholes model, the Company calculated a relative fair value of $369,779 for these stock purchase warrants. The difference between the fair value of the equity and the settled liability totaled $733,414 and was recorded as a loss on settlement of debt. Loans Payable On September 5, 2014, the Company received $130,000 from a third party in the form of a demand loan bearing interest at a rate of 9% per annum. The entire principal amount, plus accrued interest totaling $12,188, was outstanding at September 30, 2015.

(“Acme”), and Samuel Sami (“Sami”) (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) filed suit against ForceField Energy, Inc. in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Diego, in a case styled TransPacific Energy, Inc. et al. v. ForceField Energy, Inc., Case No. 37-2014-00013110-CU-BC-CTL (Cal. Super. Ct. filed April 28, 2014) (the “Lawsuit”). In the Lawsuit, Plaintiffs claimed various breaches by ForceField of the share exchange agreement dated May 10, 2012 between ForceField, Acme, Apela Holdings, and ABH Holdings, and sought unspecified damages in excess of $25,000. ForceField filed a motion to compel the Lawsuit to arbitration. On July 14, 2014, ForceField commenced an arbitration proceeding against TPE, Howard, Sami, and Acme (collectively, the “Respondents”) before the American Arbitration Association in New York City styled ForceField Energy, Inc. v. TransPacific Energy, Inc., et al v. ForceField Energy, Inc., et al, AAA Case No. 01-14-0000-9289 (the “Arbitration”). In the Arbitration, ForceField asserted various claims for breach of the share exchange agreement, which materially harmed the value of ForceField’s investments in TPE. Respondents filed counterclaims in the Arbitration similar in substance to the claims they asserted in the Lawsuit. On March 5, 2015, the parties entered into a written settlement agreement (“Agreement”) that resolved all claims and counterclaims asserted in both the Lawsuit and the Arbitration. Pursuant to the Agreement, both the Lawsuit and the Arbitration have each been dismissed with prejudice. Class Actions On April 17, 2015, a class action lawsuit against the Company and its officers, Messrs. David Natan and Jason Williams (collectively referred to as the “Individual Defendants”), former chairman and officer Mr. Richard St-Julien, and certain other third parties, was filed in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York. Additional class action complaints were also filed in the Southern District on behalf of all persons who purchased the Company’s securities between September 16, 2013 and April 15, 2015 (together, the “Class Actions”). The Class Actions alleged the Company and the other persons named therein violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and seek an unspecified amount of damages. On July 22, 2015, the Class Actions were consolidated before the Honorable Naomi Reice Buchwald in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Class Action”). On November 6, 2015, the Lead Plaintiff in the Class Action filed a second amended complaint. The Company and Individual Defendants have permission to file a motion to dismiss on or before December 4, 2015. On October 13, 2015, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation issued an Order declining to transfer the Class Action to the Eastern District of New York. Derivative Actions On May 13, 2015, a derivative lawsuit on behalf of the Company was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York against the Individual Defendants, the Company’s directors Kebir Ratnani, Adrian Auman, and David Vanderhorst (collectively referred to as the “Director Defendants” ) and Mr. St-Julien. This lawsuit seeks unspecified damages against these individuals for breaches of their fiduciary duties and unjust enrichment. On May 29, 2015, a second derivative lawsuit (together with the prior derivative lawsuit, the “Federal Derivative Actions”) on behalf of the Company against the same defendants in federal court.

This lawsuit seeks unspecified damages against these individuals for breaches of their fiduciary duties, waste of corporate assets, unjust enrichment, aiding and abetting fiduciary violations and gross mismanagement. On November 6, 2015, the Individual Defendants and Director Defendants moved to dismiss this action. This motion is currently pending. Although the ultimate outcome of the Class Actions, Federal Derivative Actions and state-court derivative action cannot be determined with certainty, the Company believes that the allegations stated in the above-described lawsuits are without merit against the Company, Individual Defendants and Director Defendants, and the Company, Individual Defendants and Director Defendants intend to defend themselves vigorously against all allegations set forth therein. SEC Investigation On April 21, 2015, the Company received from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a subpoena for the production of certain documents and information pursuant to a formal order of investigation. The Company is cooperating fully with the SEC in its investigation. Although an SEC investigation is not an indication that any violation of law has occurred, the Company cannot predict the outcome of this inquiry. American Lighting Sellers Litigation Pursuant to the terms of the ALD stock purchase agreement dated as of April 25, 2014, by and among the Company and ALD and the then stockholders of the ALD (collectively, the “Sellers”) and the Sellers’ representative, as amended to date (the “SPA”), the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of ALD Sellers.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACC16

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2015
Notes to Financial Statements
Basis of Presentation	The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information. All amounts are expressed in United States dollars. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted as allowed by such rules and regulations, and management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited consolidated financial statements include all of the adjustments which in the opinion of management are necessary to a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes and other information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The results of operations for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2015 or for any other future period.
Going Concern	These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has generated significant operating losses which have been funded primarily from debt and equity financings. In addition, the Company is in default of, or past due on, numerous payments related to principal and interest due on notes payable, vendor payables and other accrued liabilities. The Company is addressing its delinquencies on a case-by-case basis; however, it can offer no assurance that the cooperation it has received thus far will continue. The continuing operations of the Company and the recoverability of the carrying value of assets is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund its working capital requirements, and upon achieving future profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relative to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There can be no assurance that new capital will be available as necessary to meet the Company's working capital requirements or, if the capital is available, that it will be on terms acceptable to the Company. The issuances of additional equity securities by the Company may result in significant dilution in the equity interests of its current stockholders. Obtaining new debt capital, assuming such debt capital would be available, will increase the Company's liabilities and future cash commitments. If the Company is unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable, the business and future success may be adversely affected and the Company may cease operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding its ability to continue as a going concern.
Predecessor and Successor Reporting	On April 25, 2014, the Company acquired 17th Street ALD Management Corp (“ALD” or “American Lighting”), a leading commercial lighting specialist based in San Diego, California. The transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that the assets purchased and the liabilities assumed all be reported in the acquirer's financial statements at their fair value, with any excess purchase price over the net assets being reported as goodwill. The application of the acquisition method of accounting represented a change in accounting basis. Accordingly, the financial statements and certain note presentations separate the Company’s presentations into two distinct periods, the period before the consummation of the transaction (labeled “Predecessor”) and the period after that date (labeled “Successor”), to indicate the application of the different basis of accounting between the periods presented. For financial reporting purposes, ALD was deemed to be the predecessor company and ForceField was deemed to be the successor company in accordance with the rules and regulations issued by the SEC. This change in accounting basis is represented in the unaudited consolidated financial statements by a vertical black line which appears between the columns entitled "Predecessor" and "Successor" on the statements and in the relevant notes. The black line signifies that the amounts shown for the periods prior to and subsequent to the acquisition may not be comparable. The predecessor account balances and results of operations are effective through April 30, 2014, as the impact of transactions recorded from April 26, 2014 through April 30, 2014 was not material.
Principles of Consolidation	These unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Discontinued Operations	In May 2015, the Company’s board of directors authorized its management to pursue the sale of ESCO. A sale was completed on June 30, 2015. As a result, ESCO’s results of operations have been reclassified as discontinued operations on a retrospective basis for all periods presented. See “Note 6 — Discontinued Operations” for additional information.
Use of Estimates	The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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. The most significant estimates relate to revenue recognition, valuation of accounts receivable and inventories, purchase price allocation of acquired businesses, impairment of long lived assets and goodwill, valuation of financial instruments, income taxes, and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known or expected trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable given the quality of information available as of the date of these financial statements. The results of these assumptions provide the basis for making estimates about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Change in Accounting Policy	In 2014, the Company changed its accounting policy related to revenue recognition from the completed contracts method to the percentage-of-completion method. Under the new policy, revenue is measured by evaluating the percentage of total costs incurred to date against the estimated total costs for each contract. The impact of the change in accounting policy on the September 30, 2014 financial statements resulted in an increase to sales of $285,171 and an increase to cost of goods sold of $209,895.
Revenue recognition	The Company recognizes revenue on the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of total costs incurred to date against the estimated total costs for each contract. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Profit incentives are included in revenue when their realization is reasonably assured. An amount equal to contract costs attributable to claims is included in revenue when realization is probable and the amount can be reliably estimated. The asset, costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, represents revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability, billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, represents billings in excess of revenue recognized. Revenue from rebates from utilities may be recognized on eligible energy-efficient lighting retrofit projects. These rebates are simultaneously credited against the quoted contract price and assigned to the Company by the customer. The Company is responsible for the application of the rebate, and bears the risk of any loss from the verification and collection of the rebate. Revenue from rebates from utilities totaled $49,713 and $236,890, respectively for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, as compared to $280,827 and $1,373,613, respectively, during the corresponding periods in the prior year. Certain rebates from utility companies are subject to refund rights in the event that specified energy savings are not met. The Company assesses each retrofit project subject to refund rights to determine if the estimated energy savings are likely to be met. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were no retrofit projects subject to this refund right that were not expected to meet the specified energy savings. The utility companies providing the retrofit rebate, at their discretion, can audit the Company's customer installations prior to payment. These audits often result in an adjustment to the rebate, which is netted against revenues. A reserve for adjustments is recorded based upon current period sales and the Company’s historical experience factor in recording such rebate adjustments. During the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, the adjustments to rebates from utilities totaled ($120) and ($5,813), respectively, as compared to ($3,446) and ($65,592), respectively, during the corresponding periods in the prior year. These amounts are netted in the Company’s accounts receivable and revenue.
Fair value measurements	The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: ● Level 1 ● Level 2 ● Level 3 Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2015. The Company uses the market approach to measure fair value for its Level 1 financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The respective carrying value of certain balance sheet financial instruments approximates its fair value. These financial instruments include cash, trade receivables, related party payables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings. Fair values were estimated to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments since they are short term in nature and they are receivable or payable on demand. The estimated fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations and reporting units and long-lived assets used in the related asset impairment tests utilize inputs classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company determines the fair value of contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. The fair value remeasurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in the fair value hierarchy. In each period, the Company reassesses its current estimates of performance relative to the stated targets and adjusts the liability to fair value. Any such adjustments are included as a component of Other Income (Expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2015: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Earnout liability $ — $ — $ — The following table summarizes the change in the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2015: 2015 Fair value, January 1, 2015 $ 641,000 Fair value of contingent consideration issued during the period — Change in fair value (641,000 ) Fair value, September 30, 2015 $ —
Goodwill and Intangible Assets	Goodwill represents the future economic benefit arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. The goodwill arising from the Company’s acquisitions is attributable to the value of the potential expanded market opportunity with new customers. Intangible assets have either an identifiable or indefinite useful life. Intangible assets with identifiable useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their economic or legal life, whichever is shorter. The Company’s amortizable intangible assets consist of customer relationships, distribution and licensing agreements, non-compete agreements and technology. Their useful lives range from 0.5 to 15 years. The Company’s indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of trade names. Goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are not amortized, but are subject to annual impairment testing unless circumstances dictate more frequent assessments. The Company performs an annual impairment assessment for goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year and more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the asset may be less than the carrying amount. Goodwill impairment testing is a two-step process performed at the reporting unit level. Step one compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined by considering both the income approach and market approaches. The fair values calculated under the income approach and market approaches are weighted based on circumstances surrounding the reporting unit. Under the income approach, the Company determines fair value based on estimated future cash flows of the reporting unit, which are discounted to the present value using discount factors that consider the timing and risk of cash flows. For the discount rate, the Company relies on the capital asset pricing model approach, which includes an assessment of the risk-free interest rate, the rate of return from publicly traded stocks, the Company’s risk relative to the overall market, the Company’s size and industry and other Company specific risks. Other significant assumptions used in the income approach include the terminal value, growth rates, future capital expenditures and changes in future working capital requirements. The market approaches use key multiples from guideline businesses that are comparable and are traded on a public market. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, there is no impairment. If the reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, then the second step must be completed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. Step two calculates the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit as calculated in step one. In this step, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities in a hypothetical purchase price allocation as if the reporting unit had been acquired on that date. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates, strategic plans and future market conditions, among others. There can be no assurance that the Company’s estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the goodwill impairment testing will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. Changes in assumptions and estimates could cause the Company to perform impairment test prior to scheduled annual impairment tests scheduled in the fourth quarter.
Long-lived assets	The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances have indicated that an asset may not be recoverable. The long-lived asset is grouped with other assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the assets are written down to the estimated fair value.
Reclassifications	Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net earnings and financial position.
Recent accounting pronouncements	The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
