SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Business - The Company is based in San Antonio, Texas and sells, distributes, and installs protective films and coatings, including automotive surface and paint protection film, headlight protection, automotive and architectural window films and ceramic coatings. The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada, U.S.A. in October 2003 and its registered office is 711 Broadway, Suite 320, San Antonio, Texas, 78215. Basis of Presentation - The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The functional currency for the Company is the United States dollar. The assets and liabilities of each of its wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S dollars using the exchange rate at the end of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Gains and losses from translations are recognized in foreign currency translation included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Segment Reporting - Management has concluded that our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is our chief executive officer. The Company’s CODM reviews the entire organization’s consolidated results as a whole on a monthly basis to evaluate performance and make resource allocation decisions. Management views the Company’s operations and manages its business as one operating segment. Use of Estimates - The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity to U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make judgments and estimates and form assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Actual outcomes may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. Foreign Currency Translation - The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of our domestic operations located in the United States. The financial statements of subsidiaries located outside of the U.S. are generally measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at the rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at average monthly rates of exchange. The resultant translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. The balance, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivable are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0.2 million and $0.3 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company evaluates the adequacy of its allowances by analyzing the aging of receivables, customer financial condition, historical collection experience, the value of any collateral and other economic and industry factors. Actual collections may differ from historical experience, and if economic, business or customer conditions deteriorate significantly, adjustments to these reserves may be required. When the Company becomes aware of factors that indicate a change in a specific customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, the Company records a specific reserve for credit losses. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no significant accounts receivable concentrations. Inventory - Inventories of all operating subsidiaries are comprised of raw materials, film, film installation support products, and supplies which are valued at lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined on a weighted average cost basis. Inventory costs include those costs directly attributable to products, including materials, labor, shipping, and overhead. The Company provides reserves for discontinued, slow-moving and excess inventory based upon historical demand calculations, forecasted usage, estimated customer requirements and product line updates. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, inventory reserves were $0.7 million and $0.1 million , respectively. Property, Plant and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost, with the exception of property and equipment acquired in connection with the Company’s acquisitions, which are recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition. Expenditures which improve or extend the life of the respective definite-lived assets are capitalized, whereas expenditures for normal repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method as follows: Furniture and fixtures 5 years Computer equipment 3-4 years Vehicles 5 years Equipment 5-8 years Leasehold improvements shorter of lease term or estimated useful life Plotters 4 years The following table presents geographic property, plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, by region as of December 31 (in thousands): 2022 2021 United States $ 12,511 $ 7,890 Canada 469 656 Europe 1,093 1,118 Other 130 234 Consolidated $ 14,203 $ 9,898 Goodwill - Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of tangible net assets acquired in acquisitions after amounts have been allocated to intangible assets. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis (at December 31) and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. The Company recognized no goodwill impairment in the years ended December 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021, and there is no significant accumulated impairment of goodwill from prior years. Refer to Note 6, Goodwill for more information related to goodwill. The following table presents geographic goodwill by region as of December 31 (in thousands): 2022 2021 United States $ 17,699 $ 16,348 Canada 5,108 5,874 Europe 2,923 3,429 Other 1,033 4 Consolidated $ 26,763 $ 25,655 Intangible Assets - Intangible assets consist primarily of software, customer relationships, trademarks and non-compete agreements. These assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of time in which their expected benefits will be realized. The following table presents geographic intangible assets, net by region as of December 31 (in thousands): 2022 2021 United States $ 23,749 $ 25,910 Canada 3,127 3,360 Europe 1,685 3,278 Other 733 185 Consolidated $ 29,294 $ 32,733 The following table presents the anticipated useful lives of intangible assets: Trademarks 10 years Software 5 years Trade name 10-15 years Contractual and customer relationships 9-10 years Non-compete 3-5 years Other 2-10 years Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company reviews and evaluates long-lived assets for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When the undiscounted expected future cash flows are not sufficient to recover an asset’s carrying amount, the fair value is compared to the carrying value to determine the impairment loss to be recorded. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less the cost to sell. Fair values are determined by independent appraisals or expected sales prices based upon market participant data developed by third party professionals or by internal licensed real estate professionals. Estimates of future cash flows and expected sales prices are judgments based upon the Company’s experience and knowledge of operations. These estimates project cash flows several years into the future and are affected by changes in the economy, real estate market conditions and inflation. No impairment was recorded during the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2021. Other Long-Term Liabilities - The balance presented as other long-term liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022 primarily relate to contingent liabilities. These liabilities are revalued at each reporting period. Refer to Note 13 for additional discussion of the valuation of these liabilities. Revenue Recognition - Our revenue is comprised primarily of product and services sales where we act as principal to the transaction. All revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligation(s) by transferring control/final benefit from the promised product or service to our customer. Due to the nature of our sales contracts, the majority of our revenue is recognized at a point in time. A performance obligation is a contractual promise to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation. Revenue is recorded net of returns and allowances. Sales, value add, and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net (excluded from revenues) basis. Shipping and handling costs are accounted for as a fulfillment obligation, on a net basis, and are included in cost of sales. See Note 2, Revenue, for additional accounting policies and transition disclosures. Research and Development - Research costs are charged to operations when incurred. Software development costs, including costs associated with developing software patterns, are expensed as incurred unless the Company incurred these expenses in the development of a new product or long-lived asset. Research and development costs were $0.4 million, $0.4 million, and $0.1 million in the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Advertising costs - Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Advertising costs were $1.2 million, $1.1 million and $0.6 million in the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Provisions and Warranties - We provide warranties on our products. Liability under the warranty policy is based on a review of historical warranty claims. Adjustments are made to the accruals as claims data experience warrant. The following table presents a summary of our warranty liabilities as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands): 2022 2021 Warranty balance at beginning of period $ 75 $ 52 Warranties assumed in period 624 398 Payments (465) (375) Warranty balance at end of period $ 234 $ 75 Income Taxes - Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. Such deferred income tax asset and liability computations are based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred and other tax assets and liabilities. The Company accounts for the tax impact of including Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) in U.S. taxable income as a period cost. Stock-Based Compensation - We measure stock-based compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. Compensation expense is recognized over the period during which the recipient provides service in exchange for the awards. Excess income tax benefits related to share-based compensation expense are recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the Consolidated Statements of Income. We account for forfeitures as they occur, rather than estimate expected forfeitures. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (“AOCI”) - The Company reports comprehensive income (loss) that includes net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to expenses, gains and losses that are not included in net earnings. These amounts are also presented in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, AOCI relates to foreign currency translation adjustments. Earnings Per Share - Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income for the year attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period plus the weighted average number of shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into common shares. Acquisitions of Businesses - Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling interest. The excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred including the recognized amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, over the fair value of the Company’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Acquisition- related expenses are recognized separately from the business combination and are recognized as general and administrative expense as incurred. The Company evaluates the materiality of required disclosures related to our business combinations using quantitative and qualitative measures. Fair Value Measurements - Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified using the following hierarchy, which is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation as of the measurement date: Level 1: Valuation is based on observable inputs such as quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2: Valuation is based on inputs such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3: Valuation is based upon other unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement. In making fair value measurements, observable market data must be used when available. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Issued and Not Yet Adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments — Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2023 and is required to be applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-13 will have on our consolidated financial statements. |
