Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and considering the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Company has a fiscal year with a June 30 year end. In the opinion of management, the financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2019 and for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 include all adjustments and accruals, consisting only of normal, recurring accrual adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed in or omitted from this report pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. These financial statements should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019. Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Amesite Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Amesite Operating Company. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fair Value Measurements Accounting standards require certain assets and liabilities be reported at fair value in the financial statements and provide a framework for establishing that fair value. The framework for determining fair value is based on a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset. These Level 3 fair value measurements are based primarily on management's own estimates using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques. In instances whereby inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Company's assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability. Cash Equivalents The Company considers all investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The total amount of bank deposits (checking, savings, and investment accounts) that was insured by the FDIC at September 30, 2019 was $250,000. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost. The straight-line method is used for computing depreciation and amortization. Assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The cost of leasehold improvements is depreciated (amortized) over the lesser of the length of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred. Depreciable Life - Years Leasehold improvements Shorter of estimated lease term or 10 years Furniture and fixtures 7 years Computer equipment and software 5 years Capitalized Software Costs The Company capitalizes significant costs incurred in the development of software for internal use, including the costs of the software, materials, consultants, and payroll and payroll related costs for employees incurred in developing internal use computer software once final selection of the software is made. Costs incurred prior to the final selection of software and costs not qualifying for capitalization are charged to expense. Capitalized software is amortized over three years, which is the expected useful life of the software. The Company recognized amortization expense of approximately $91,378 for the three month period ended September 30, 2019. The Company did not recognize any amortization expense for the three month period ended September 30, 2018. Revenue Recognition The Company generates its revenue from the licensing of its student learning software to universities within the United States of America. The software includes a platform that tightly integrates technology and services to attract, enroll, educate, and support students for certain classes offered by the universities. These licenses generally have three- to six-year terms. The Company transfers its software and support to its customers over a period of time and its customers consume and receive benefits from the Company's software and support over the related contract period. The Company's has determined that its contracts contain one performance obligation and, as such, recognizes revenue on a per student basis over the term of the contract. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2019, there were no receivables or deferred revenue recorded, nor were there balances as of June 30, 2019. Additionally, there were no contract assets recorded at September 30, 2019. Income Taxes In calculating the provision for interim income taxes, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes, we apply an estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date ordinary income. At the end of each interim period, we estimate the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statement of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. Risks and Uncertainties The Company intends to operate in an industry subject to rapid change. The Company's operations will be subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, technological, and other risks associated with an early stage company, including the potential risk of business failure. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since inception, is still in the early stages of developing its service platform, and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to cover costs over an extended period of time. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. Despite management's ongoing efforts, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become financially viable. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Research and Development Research and development expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development expense of approximately $26,000 and $58,000 was charged to expense during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 Net Loss per Share Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants, using various methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each reporting period. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company had 1,170,833 and 1,771,192 potentially dilutive shares of common stock related to common stock options and warrants, respectively, as determined using the if-converted method. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company had 1,011,917 and 292,114 potentially dilutive shares of common stock related to common stock options and warrants, as determined using the if-converted method. For all periods presented, the dilutive effect of common stock options and common stock warrants has not been included in the average shares outstanding for the calculation of net loss per share as the effect would be anti-dilutive as a result of our net losses in these periods. Stock-Based Payments Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 718 "Compensation-Stock Compensation" requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for the award of equity instruments based on the estimated fair value of the award at the date of grant. The expense is to be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. The Company accounts for shares of common stock and stock options issued to employees based on the fair value of the stock or stock option, if that value is more reliably measurable than the fair value of the consideration or services received. The Company accounts for stock options, warrants, and restricted shares of common stock issued to non-employees in accordance with the FASB ASC Subtopic 505-50 "Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees". Accordingly, the fair value of the stock compensation issued to non-employees is based upon the measurement date as determined at the earlier of either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) the date which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. As a measurement date has not yet been reached for the stock options outstanding held by non-employees, the Company remeasures these outstanding options to fair value at each reporting period. The measurement date for all outstanding restricted shares was settled during the three months ended September 2019. Accordingly, the Company has recorded an expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the remaing unvested portion of outstanding restricted shares.
