SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | Note 4 – Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies Use of estimates in the financial statements The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s management evaluates these significant estimates and assumptions included those related to the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, stock based compensation, derivative instruments, income taxes, accounts receivable and inventories, and other matters that affect the condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Principles of consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nxt-ID and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, 3D-ID and LogicMark. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Concentrations of Credit Risk During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recognized revenue of $2,708,036 from World Ventures Holdings, LLC (“WVH”), a related party and the Company’s largest stockholder. At March 31, 2017, the Company’s accounts receivable balance included $1,593,500 due from WVH. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or readily determinable and collectability of the sale is reasonably assured. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable is stated at net realizable value. The Company regularly reviews accounts receivable balances and adjusts the receivable reserves as necessary whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company had no allowance for doubtful accounts at March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016. Inventory The Company performs regular reviews of inventory quantities on hand and evaluates the realizable value of its inventories. The Company adjusts the carrying value of the inventory as necessary with estimated valuation reserves for excess, obsolete, and slow-moving inventory by comparing the individual inventory parts to forecasted product demand or production requirements. As of March 31, 2017 inventory was comprised of $3,909,176 in raw materials and $1,311,605 in finished goods on hand. Inventory at December 31, 2016 was comprised of $3,797,499 in raw materials and $1,544,001 in finished goods on hand. The Company is required to prepay for raw materials with certain vendors until credit terms can be established. As of March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company had prepaid inventory of $1,801,816 and $1,089,770, respectively. These prepayments were made primarily for raw materials inventory and prepaid inventory is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Goodwill The Company’s goodwill relates to the acquisition of LogicMark. The Company will begin testing goodwill for impairment annually in the third quarter of each year using data as of August 1 of that year. Authoritative accounting guidance allows the Company to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the more detailed two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. The Company performs the quantitative test if its qualitative assessment determined it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount. The Company may elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to the quantitative test for any reporting units or assets. The quantitative goodwill impairment test, if necessary, is a two-step process. The first step is to identify the existence of a potential impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit (the estimated fair value of a reporting unit is calculated using a discounted cash flow model) with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, the reporting unit’s goodwill is considered not to be impaired and performance of the second step of the quantitative goodwill impairment test is unnecessary. However, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the quantitative goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss to be recorded, if any. The second step of the quantitative goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined using the same approach as employed when determining the amount of goodwill that would be recognized in a business combination. That is, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of its assets and liabilities as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value was the purchase price paid to acquire the reporting unit. Other Intangible Assets The Company’s intangible assets are all related to the acquisition of LogicMark and are included in other intangible assets in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016. At March 31, 2017, the other intangible assets are comprised of patents of $3,844,707; trademarks of $1,214,498; and customer relationships of $3,038,675. At December 31, 2016, the other intangible assets are comprised of patents of $3,936,612; trademarks of $1,230,002; and customer relationships of $3,119,111. The Company will continue amortizing these intangible assets using the straight line method over their estimated useful lives which for the patents, trademarks and customer relationships are 11 years; 20 years; and 10 years, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company had amortization expense of $187,845 related to the intangible assets. As of March 31, 2017, amortization expense estimated for the remainder of fiscal 2017 is approximately $574,000 and for each of the next five fiscal years, 2018 through 2022 the amortization expense is estimated to be approximately $762,000 per year. Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for share-based awards exchanged for employee services at the estimated grant date fair value of the award. The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees at their fair value on the measurement date. The measurement of stock-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying equity instrument vests or becomes non-forfeitable. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges are amortized over the vesting period or as earned. The Company generally issues new shares of common stock to satisfy conversion and warrant exercises. Net Loss per Share Basic loss per share was computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share includes the effect of diluted common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive securities of 1,749,805 realizable from the Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock (as defined in Note 7), 575,000 from the convertible exchange notes and from the exercise of 1,829,049 warrants as of March 31, 2017 were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. As of March 31, 2016, potentially dilutive securities from the conversion of convertible notes of $838,171 and related accrued interest and from the exercise of warrants into 756,549 shares of Common Stock were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09 (“ASU 2016-09”), “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” ASU 2016-09 will affect all entities that issue share-based payment awards to their employees and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 for public entities. The areas for simplification in ASU 2016-09 involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows.
