Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). On this basis, revenue and the related assets are recognized when services are performed and products are sold, and expenses and related liabilities are recorded when the obligation is incurred. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ZRCN as well as its variable interest entities. The Company consolidates all entities over which the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies and therefore exercises control, and upon which the Company has a controlling financial interest. The entities are consolidated from the date at which the Company obtains control and are de-consolidated from the date at which control ceases. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Accounting policies of the entities have been revised where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Company. ZRCN Inc. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 AND 2023 Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810-10-25, Consolidation Reverse Stock Split On May 10, 2023, ZRCN authorized a 1:20 reverse split of its common shares outstanding, pursuant to a majority vote of stockholders as provided under Section 228 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (DGCL). As a result, ZRCN made an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation to affect a reverse split of the Common Stock whereby each twenty (20) issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock was exchanged for one (1) share of Common Stock. Each resulting fractional share of Common Stock was rounded up to the next nearest whole share of Common Stock and with no change to the authorized shares of Common Stock. At the time, the effect of the reverse stock split reduced the number of common shares outstanding from 198,964,500 to 9,948,272 . All references to common stock, stock warrants to purchase common stock, share data, per share data and related information contained in these consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effect of the reverse stock split for all periods presented. Variable Interest Entities In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation If an entity is determined to be a VIE, the Company evaluates whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary analysis is a qualitative analysis based on power and economics. The Company consolidates a VIE if both power and benefits belong to the Company - that is, the Company (i) has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly influence the VIE’s economic performance (power), and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE (benefits). The Company consolidates VIEs whenever it is determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company has determined that ZDM and Zircon UK are variable interest entities with the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Zircon, as the primary beneficiary, and thus the Company, with the ability to exercise control, as determined under the guidance of ASC 810. In its determination, management considered the following qualitative and quantitative factors: a. the overall purpose and design of the entities, which exist primarily for the benefit of or on behalf of the Company and; b. the Company’s contractual and common control arrangements with the VIEs, through which it gains both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact their economic performance, and the obligation to absorb losses and receive benefits that potentially could be significant to the VIEs; c. the equity at risk of the entities is not sufficient to finance the entities’ activities without additional subordinated financial support by the Company (i.e., the entities are thinly capitalized). ZRCN Inc. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 AND 2023 The following table summarizes the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of ZDM included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2024 and 2023 (after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances): Schedule of Carrying Amount of Assets and Liabilities for Variable Interest Entities As of March 31, 2024 2023 ASSETS Current assets: Cash $ 29,671 $ 38,844 Accounts receivable $ 10,288 8,115 Prepaid expenses and other assets $ 63,146 47,156 Total current assets 103,105 94,115 Property and equipment $ 251,819 272,723 Total assets $ 354,924 $ 366,838 LIABILITIES Current liabilities: Accounts payable $ 130,994 $ 153,916 Accrued expenses $ 73,641 114,719 Total current liabilities $ 204,635 $ 268,635 The following table summarizes the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of Zircon UK included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2024 and 2023 (after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances): Schedule of Carrying Amount of Assets and Liabilities for Variable Interest Entities As of March 31, 2024 2023 ASSETS Current assets: Cash $ — $ 21,103 Accounts receivable 9,173 4,366 Total current assets 9,173 25,469 LIABILITIES Current liabilities: Accounts payable $ 32,964 $ 31,086 Total current liabilities $ 32,964 $ 31,086 Non-controlling Interests The Company follows ASC 810, which governs the accounting for and reporting of non-controlling interests (“NCIs”) in partially owned consolidated entities and the loss of control of those entities. Non-controlling interest positions, which represent 100% of the activity in the Company’s consolidated entities before intercompany transactions have been eliminated, are reported as a separate component of consolidated stockholders’ equity from the equity attributable to ZRCN’s stockholders for all years presented. The net income attributed to the NCI’s is separately designated in the accompanying comprehensive loss. ZRCN Inc. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 AND 2023 Use of Estimates The preparation of 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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Significant estimates used in preparing these consolidated financial statements include the provision for credit losses, allowance for inventory obsolescence, allocation of overhead to inventory, estimated future benefit and fair value of intangible assets, accrued rebates and advertising allowances, useful lives and depreciation methods of property and equipment, and uncertain tax positions. It is at least reasonably possible that the significant estimates used will change within the next year. Cash The carrying value of cash approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. From time to time, the Company may be in the position of a “book overdraft” in which outstanding checks exceed cash. The Company classifies book overdrafts in accounts payable within its consolidated balance sheets, and classifies the change in accounts payable associated with book overdrafts as an operating activity within the consolidated statement of cash flows. As of March 31, 2024, the book overdraft included within accounts payable was $ 350,022 . As of March 31, 2023, the Company did not have any book overdrafts included within accounts payable. Accounts Receivable, Net Accounts receivables are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. The Company provides credit without requiring collateral, in the normal course of business, to credit-worthy customers as determined by management’s review of references and credit reports. Bad debts are charged against the provision for credit losses. The provision for credit losses is adjusted to provide a specific and general allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts, which is based on management’s judgment based on a number of factors, including the length of time the receivables are past due, significant one-time events and historical experience. Balances that are still outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the provision for credit losses and a credit to accounts receivable. Based on management’s assessment of the credit history with customers having outstanding balances and current relationships with them, management believes that losses on balances outstanding will not exceed the provision for credit losses. Accounts receivable consisted of the following: Schedule of Accounts Receivable March 31, 2024 March 31, 2023 Accounts receivable $ 8,657,894 $ 7,534,193 Less provision for credit losses (13,521 ) (9,765 ) Accounts receivable, net $ 8,644,373 $ 7,524,428 Activity related to the Company’s provision for credit losses was as follows: Schedule of Provision for Credit losses March 31, 2024 March 31, 2023 Balance, beginning of period $ 9,765 $ 115,129 Credit loss provision 3,756 1,561 Write-offs — (106,925 ) Balance, end of period $ 13,521 $ 9,765 Inventory Inventories, which consist primarily of raw materials and finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company states inventory cost utilizing the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Labor and overhead associated with inventory purchases are estimated and capitalized in inventory. The need for an allowance for inventory obsolescence is based on an evaluation of slow-moving or obsolete inventory. ZRCN Inc. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 AND 2023 Property and Equipment, Net Property and equipment are stated at cost. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease terms or estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the respective assets: Schedule of Useful Life of Asset Leasehold improvement 7 - 20 years Computer equipment 3 - 5 years Manufacturing equipment 3 - 10 years Furniture and office equipment 7 - 10 years Vehicles 4 - 5 years Intangible Assets, Net Included in intangible assets are external amounts paid to vendors as well as consulting and legal fees for purchased patents and the cost of the exclusivity rights and licenses secured by the Company for certain technology. The intangible assets are recorded at cost on the balance sheet and adjusted for amortization, abandonments, and impairments (see Note 8). Acquired identifiable intangible assets are valued at the acquisition date primarily by using a discounted cash flow method. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 5 to 20 years. Amortization for filed patents not yet issued will begin upon the date of issuance. The Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment and writes off assets that are not used in any products. During the years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no impairment expenses for intangible assets. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances exist that indicate the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. The recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset or asset group to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset group. If the asset or asset group is considered to be impaired, an impairment loss is recorded to adjust the carrying amounts to the estimated fair value. The excess of the carrying value of the reporting unit over the estimated fair value was first allocated to the intangibles and then to goodwill. Fair value was determined using the income approach. As of March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, there has been no impairment of long lived assets. Deposits The Company has amounts pledged as security deposits of $ 19,195 at March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, respectively, primarily representing a security deposit required by the Company’s office lease. Revenue Recognition The Company’s revenues result from the sale of products and reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. The Company records revenue based on a five-step model in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ZRCN Inc. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 AND 2023 Provisions for customer volume rebates, product returns, discounts and allowances are variable consideration and are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the same period the related sales are recorded. Such provisions are calculated using historical averages adjusted for any expected changes due to current business conditions. Consideration given to customers for cooperative advertising is recognized as a reduction of revenue except to the extent that there is a distinct good or service and evidence of the fair value of the advertising, in which case the expense is classified as marketing and selling expense. Advertising expenses included within marketing and selling expenses were $ 57,353 and $ 207,696 for the years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Sales tax for the sale of products is applied to the invoice and recorded as an accrued liability. Research and Development The Company incurs research and development costs of products for use in scanning behind opaque surfaces. The Company will continue to invest in research and development to develop additional components and products of its scanning product offerings and remains committed to providing its customers and partners with best-in-class scanning products and services. Such research and development costs, software development costs, and any new product development costs, are expensed as incurred, and include personnel-related costs, depreciation related to engineering and test equipment, allocated costs of facilities and information technology, outside services and consultant costs, supplies, software tools and product certification. Warranty The Company provides an assurance warranty that its products and the functionalities work as intended and comply with defined specifications. The Company does not provide an extended service warranty to its customers. The actual cost associated with the assurance warranty is $ 3,308 as of March 31, 2024 and $ 4,992 as of March 31, 2023. Costs are expensed as incurred. Comprehensive Loss Comprehensive loss of all periods presented is comprised primarily of net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments. Segment Reporting The Company determines its reporting units in accordance with FASB ASC 280, Segment Reporting Concentration of Business and Credit Risk As of March 31, 2024, the Company maintained deposits in a single bank that exceeded the federal insured deposit limit of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) . During the years ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 the Company generated approximately 72 % and 66 % of its total revenue from three customers. Accounts receivable from these customers amounted to approximately 77 75 ZRCN Inc. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 AND 2023 As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, 72 % and 75 % of its total accounts receivable, were from three customers, respectively. Fair Value of Financial Instruments In accordance with FASB ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures a. Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; b. Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability other than quoted prices, either directly or indirectly including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active; and c. Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and insignificant to the fair value measurement. Categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company believes the carrying amounts of its cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximated their fair values as of March 31, 2024 and 2023 due to their short-term nature. Management measures intangible assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis using internally developed assumptions about the market as there is no market activity available. All carrying amounts of other applicable assets and liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet approximate fair value. For long-term debt, the estimated fair value approximates its carrying value, as the interest rate is in line with the market interest rates for this type of debt. Foreign Operations and Foreign Currency The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar and the Company’s records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities, including any amounts due or receivable from foreign entities, are translated into the reporting currency using the exchange rates in effect on the consolidated balance sheet dates. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates, except for the change in retained earnings during the year, which is the result of the consolidated statement of operations translation process. Any revenues or expenses that are billed in foreign currency are converted at the average rates of exchange prevailing during each period. Realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are reflected in earnings. The cumulative translation adjustments associated with the net assets of foreign entities are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the accompanying consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity. Operations outside the United States include entities in Mexico and the United Kingdom. The Company also transacts business in other foreign countries. Foreign operations are subject to risks inherent in operating under different legal systems and various political and economic environments. Among the risks are changes in existing tax laws, possible limitations on foreign investment and income repatriation, government price or foreign exchange controls, and restrictions on currency exchange. Income Taxes Income taxes are recorded in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes ZRCN Inc. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 AND 2023 As of April 14, 2023, Zircon’s election to be an S Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code was no longer in effect. Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income or loss attributable to ZRCN by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share excludes, when applicable, the potential impact of common stock warrant shares and other dilutive instruments because their effect would be anti-dilutive. Diluted net income per share, when applicable, includes the warrant shares because their effect would be dilutive. The dilutive securities outstanding are as follows: Schedule of Dilutive Securities Outstanding March 31, 2024 March 31, 2023 Common stock warrants 217,184 — In accordance with an agreement with SCE dated May 15, 2023, the Company will issue an additional 25,000 Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard, ASC Topic 842, related to leases to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. Most significant among the changes in the standard is the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous U.S. GAAP. Under the new standard, disclosures are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company’s lease arrangements relate primarily to office space, a vehicle, and office equipment. The Company’s leases may include renewal options and rent escalation clauses. The Company is typically required to make fixed minimum rent payments relating to its right to use an underlying leased asset. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and classifies its leases at commencement. Operating leases are presented as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and the corresponding lease liabilities are included in operating lease liabilities, current and operating lease liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation for lease payments in exchange for the ability to use the asset for the duration of the lease term. The Company does not recognize short term leases that have a term of twelve months or less as ROU assets or lease liabilities. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date and determined using the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing since the Company’s leases do not include an implicit interest rate. The estimated incremental borrowing rate considers market data, actual lease economic environment, and actual lease term at commencement date. The lease term may include options to extend when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has lease agreements which contain both lease and non-lease components, which it has not elected to account for as a single lease component. As such, minimum lease payments exclude fixed payments for non-lease components within a lease agreement, in addition to excluding variable lease payments not dependent on an index or rate, such as common area maintenance, operating expenses, utilities, or other costs that are subject to fluctuation from period to period. ZRCN Inc. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 AND 2023 Warrants The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity Derivatives and Hedging For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be liability classified and recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance and remeasured at fair value and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations. The fair value of the private placement warrants was estimated using a Black Scholes valuation approach with assumptions relevant on the date of issuance and the fair value of the penny warrants issued in connection with the Merger was estimated using the intrinsic value method. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements As an emerging growth company, the Company will have the option of adopting new accounting pronouncements on a delayed basis and has opted to take advantage of this option. As a result, the Company has been adopting new accounting standards based on the timeline for adoption afforded to privately held companies, unless it chooses to early adopt a new accounting standard. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Adopted In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity Classified Written Call Options In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Accounting for Credit Losses (Topic 326) Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The new standard requires a company to disclose incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis, including significant segment expenses and measures of profit or loss that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker. The standard is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2024 and interim periods within fiscal year 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect to early adopt the new standard. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and will adopt the new standard using a retrospective approach. ZRCN Inc. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 AND 2023 In December 2023, the FASB also issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The new standard requires a company to expand its existing income tax disclosures, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The standard is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect to early adopt the new standard. The new standard is expected to be applied prospectively, but retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2024, FASB issued ASU No. 2024-01, “Compensation- Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards.” ASU 2024-01 provides an illustrative example that includes four fact patterns to demonstrate how an entity should apply the scope guidance in paragraph 718-10-15-3 to determine whether a profits interest award should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 718. ASU 2024-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-01 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |
