BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMA
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 6 Months Ended |
Aug. 31, 2020 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | Note 1 Basis of Presentation The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim condensed financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements include all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items, unless otherwise disclosed herein. Accordingly, the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These interim Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended February 29, 2020 included in our Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year due to the seasonality of our product sales. COVID-19 Update In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, known as COVID-19, was reported in Wuhan, China and has since extensively impacted the global health and economic environment. In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic, and President Trump declared the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States as a national emergency. The Company has taken numerous steps, and will continue to take further actions, in its approach to minimize the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. To ensure the well-being of our employees, the Company offered employees in our office the ability to work from home on a temporary basis; we instructed employees in our warehouse and office to take their temperature at the start of every shift; we requested employees forgo any in-person meetings and instead opt to utilize virtual meeting spaces; and we published and continually updated our employees on the most recent developments related to COVID-19 and best practices for safety and health in the office, warehouse and at home. We are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and continually assessing its potential effects on our business. On April 16, 2020, the Company entered into a loan with MidFirst Bank as the lender in an aggregate principal amount of $1.4 million pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. This loan program provided paycheck protection for our employees from the economic impact to our business due to COVID-19, which was seen most by the decline in our Publishing division’s sales due to the closure of many retail outlets across the country, and in our UBAM division’s School and Library and Book Fair sales due to the closure of many schools nation-wide. The Company determined the PPP loan was no longer needed and therefore repaid the loan in full on May 12, 2020. While the Company did not experience a decrease in net revenues in the first six months of fiscal year 2021 compared with the same period in fiscal year 2020, the severity and duration of the pandemic are uncertain and the extent to which our results are affected by COVID-19 cannot be accurately predicted. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant Accounting Policies Our significant accounting policies, other than the adoption of new accounting pronouncements separately documented herein, are consistent with those disclosed in Note 1 to our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended February 29, 2020 included in our Form 10-K. New Accounting Pronouncements The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. We have reviewed the recently issued accounting standards updates (“ASU”) and concluded that the following recently issued accounting standards apply to us: In December 2019, the FASB published ASU 2019-12: Income Taxes (Topic 740), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. Topic 740 addresses a number of topics including but not limited to the removal of certain exceptions currently included in the standard related to intra-period allocation when there are losses, in addition to calculation of income taxes when current year-to-date losses exceed anticipated loss for the year. The amendment also simplifies accounting for certain franchise taxes and disclosure of the effect of enacted change in tax laws or rates. Topic 740 is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The impact of the adoption of the standard has not yet been determined and is being evaluated. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04: Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This update provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease potential accounting impacts associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued, such as London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). This ASU includes practical expedients for contract modifications due to reference rate reform. Generally, contract modifications related to reference rate reform may be considered an event that does not require remeasurement or reassessment of a previous accounting determination at the modification date. This ASU is effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company’s debt agreements include the use of alternate rates when LIBOR is not available. We do not expect the change from LIBOR to an alternate rate will have a material impact to our financial statements and, to the extent we enter into modifications of agreements that are impacted by the LIBOR phase-out, we will apply such guidance to those contract modifications. |

Lessee, Operating Lease, Disclosure [Table Text Block] | Note 3 We have both lessee and lessor arrangements. Our leases are evaluated at inception or at any subsequent modification. Depending on the terms, leases are classified as either operating or finance leases if we are the lessee, or as operating, sales-type or direct financing leases if we are the lessor, as appropriate under ASC 842. Our lessee arrangement includes a rental agreement where we have the exclusive use of dedicated office space in San Diego, California, and qualifies as an operating lease. Our lessor arrangements include three rental agreements for warehouse and office space in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and each qualifies as an operating lease under ASC 842. In accordance with ASC 842, we have made an accounting policy election to not apply the new standard to lessee arrangements with a term of one year or less and no purchase option that is reasonably certain of exercise. We will continue to account for these short-term arrangements by recognizing payments and expenses as incurred, without recording a lease liability and right-of-use asset. We have also made an accounting policy election for both our lessee and lessor arrangements to combine lease and non-lease components. This election is applied to all of our lease arrangements as our non-lease components are not material and do not result in significant timing differences in the recognition of rental expenses or income. Operating Leases – Lessee We recognize a lease liability, reported in other liabilities on the condensed balance sheets, for each lease based on the present value of remaining minimum fixed rental payments (which includes payments under any renewal option that we are reasonably certain to exercise), using a discount rate that approximates the rate of interest we would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term. We also recognize a right-of-use asset, reported in other assets on the condensed balance sheets, for each lease, valued at the lease liability, adjusted for prepaid or accrued rent balances existing at the time of initial recognition. The lease liability and right-of-use asset are reduced over the term of the lease as payments are made and the assets are used. 2020 August 31, February 29, Operating lease assets: Right-of-use asset $ 39,800 $ 45,200 Operating lease liabilities: Current lease liability $ 13,600 $ 13,500 Long-term lease liability $ 26,200 $ 31,700 Remaining lease term (months) 37 43 Discount rate 4.60 % 4.60 % Minimum fixed rental payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease as costs and expenses on our condensed statements of earnings.

Variable rental payments are recognized as revenue in the period in which the changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable lease payments are based occur. On April 4, 2020, we executed an amendment to one of our existing leases that abated rental payments for the months of May, June and July, 2020. The amendment also extended the term of the lease for three additional months. This amendment represents a lease modification and, as such, we have adjusted our fixed rental income on a straight-line basis over the remaining term starting May 1, 2020. Future minimum payments receivable under operating leases with terms greater than one year are estimated as follows: Year ending February 28 (29), 2021 $ 766,800 2022 1,556,100 2023 1,587,400 2024 1,592,500 2025 1,562,000 Thereafter 9,694,300 Total $ 16,759,100 The cost of the leased space was approximately $10,806,300 and $10,789,500 as of August 31, 2020 and February 29, 2020, respectively. The accumulated depreciation associated with the leased assets was $2,020,000 and $1,828,900 as of August 31, 2020 and February 29, 2020, respectively. Both the leased assets and accumulated depreciation are included in property, plant and equipment-net on the condensed balance sheets. |

Tranche A has a fixed interest rate of 4.23% and interest is payable monthly. Term Loan #1 is secured by the primary office, warehouse and land. The Loan Agreement also provides a $10.0 million revolving loan (“line of credit”) through August 15, 2021, which is limited to advance rates on eligible receivables and eligible inventory levels. Interest is payable monthly at the greater of 2.75% or the bank adjusted LIBOR Index plus a tiered pricing rate based on the Company’s Adjusted Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio (2.75% at August 31, 2020). On August 15, 2020, the Company executed the Eleventh Amendment Loan Agreement with the Bank related to our Loan Agreement. The amendment modifies the Loan Agreement, extending the termination date of the line of credit to August 15, 2021, reducing the maximum revolving principal amount from $15.0 million to $10.0 million, and amending the definition of the LIBOR and Prime rate, establishing that the rate charged, including the LIBOR Margin or Prime Margin, shall never be less than 2.75%. Adjusted Funded Debt is defined as all long-term and short-term bank debt less the outstanding balances of Tranche A. EBITDA is defined in the Loan Agreement as earnings before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization expenses, reduced by rental income. The variable interest pricing tier is as follows: Pricing Tier Adjusted Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio LIBOR Margin (bps) I >2.00 300.00 II >1.50 but < 275.00 III >1.00 but < 250.00 IV < 225.00 We had no borrowings outstanding on our line of credit at August 31, 2020 and February 29, 2020. Available credit under the revolving line of credit was approximately $8.4 million and $11.0 million at August 31, 2020 and February 29, 2020, respectively. The Loan Agreement contains a provision for our use of the Bank’s letters of credit. The Bank agrees to issue or obtain issuance of commercial or stand-by letters of credit provided that no letters of credit will have an expiry date later than August 15, 2021, and that the sum of the line of credit plus the letters of credit would not exceed the borrowing base in effect at the time. As of August 31, 2020, we had no letters of credit outstanding. On April 16, 2020, the Company entered into a loan with the Bank of approximately $1.4 million pursuant to the PPP under the CARES Act. The PPP Loan had a fixed interest rate of 1.00%, with principal and interest payments starting December 1, 2020 and a scheduled maturity date of May 1, 2022. The Company determined the PPP loan was no longer needed and repaid the loan in full, including interest accrued to date, on May 12, 2020. On June 3, 2020, the Company paid off the remaining balance of the $4.0 million Term Loan #2 which originated on June 28, 2016. The final payment, including accrued interest, totaled $2.9 million. There were no additional fees or penalties resulting from the payoff of Term Loan #2. On August 4, 2020, the Company paid off the remaining balance of the $5.0 million Term Loan #1 Tranche B which originated on March 10, 2016. The final payment, including accrued interest, totaled $4.2 million. There were no additional fees or penalties resulting from the payoff of Term Loan #1 Tranche B.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share [Text Block] | Note 5 Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is based on the combined weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive potential common shares issuable which include, where appropriate, the assumed exercise of options. In computing diluted EPS, we have utilized the treasury stock method. The computation of weighted average common and common equivalent shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted EPS is shown below.

Share-based Payment Arrangement, Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Disclosure of Share-based Compensation Arrangements by Share-based Payment Award [Table Text Block] | Note 6 We account for stock-based compensation whereby share-based payment transactions with employees, such as stock options and restricted stock, are measured at estimated fair value at the date of grant. For awards subject to service conditions, compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. Awards subject to performance conditions are attributed separately for each vesting tranche of the award and are recognized ratably from the service inception date to the vesting date for each tranche. Forfeitures are recognized when they occur. In July 2018, our shareholders approved the Company’s 2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2019 LTI Plan”). The 2019 LTI Plan establishes up to 600,000 shares of restricted stock which can be granted to certain members of management based on exceeding specified net revenues and pre-tax performance metrics during fiscal years 2019, 2020 or 2021. The number of restricted shares to be distributed depends on attaining the performance metrics defined by the 2019 LTI Plan and may result in the distribution of a number of shares that is less than, but not greater than, the number of restricted shares outlined in the terms of the 2019 LTI Plan. Restricted shares granted under the 2019 LTI Plan “cliff vest” after five years. During fiscal year 2019, the Company granted 308,000 restricted shares under the 2019 LTI Plan with an average grant-date fair value of $9.94 per share. The remaining compensation expense for these awards, totaling approximately $1,662,800, will be recognized ratably over the remaining vesting period of approximately 30 months. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, the Company granted approximately 151,000 restricted shares under the 2019 LTI Plan with an average grant-date fair value of $6.30 per share. The remaining compensation expense of the awards, totaling approximately $898,600, will be recognized ratably over the remaining vesting period of approximately 54 months. As of August 31, 2020, 141,000 restricted shares were available for issuance as future awards under the 2019 LTI Plan. A summary of compensation expense recognized in connection with restricted share awards follows: Three Months Ended August 31, Six Months Ended August 31, 2020 2019 2020 2019 Share-based compensation expense $ 216,200 $ 166,200 $ 385,200 $ 332,500 The following tables summarizes stock award activity during fiscal year 2021 under the 2019 LTI Plan: Shares Weighted Average Fair Value (per share) Outstanding at February 29, 2020 308,000 $ 9.94 Granted 151,000 6.30 Vested - - Forfeited - - Outstanding at August 31, 2020 459,000 $ 8.74 As of August 31, 2020, total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested restricted shares was $2,561,400, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 38.4 months. |

Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block] | Note 8 We have two reportable segments: Publishing and Usborne Books & More (“UBAM”). These reportable segments are business units that offer different methods of distribution to different types of customers. They are managed separately based on the fundamental differences in their operations. Our Publishing segment markets its products to retail accounts, which include book, school supply, toy and gift stores and museums, through commissioned sales representatives, trade and specialty wholesalers and our internal tele-sales group. Our UBAM segment markets its products through a network of independent sales consultants using a combination of internet sales, direct sales, home shows and book fairs. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those of the rest of the Company. We evaluate segment performance based on earnings before income taxes of the segments, which is defined as segment net revenues reduced by cost of sales and direct expenses. Corporate expenses, depreciation, interest expense and income taxes are not allocated to the segments but are listed in the “Other” row below. Corporate expenses include the executive department, accounting department, information services department, general office management, warehouse operations and building facilities management.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] | Note 9 The valuation hierarchy included in GAAP considers the transparency of inputs used to value assets and liabilities as of the measurement date. A financial instrument’s classification within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to its fair value measurement. The three levels of the valuation hierarchy and the classification of our financial assets and liabilities within the hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If an asset or liability has a specified term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. We do not report any assets or liabilities at fair value in the financial statements. However, the estimated fair value of our term notes payable is estimated by management to approximate $11,710,500 and $19,155,500 at August 31, 2020 and February 29, 2020, respectively. Management’s estimates are based on the obligations’ characteristics, including floating interest rate, maturity, and collateral. Such valuation inputs are considered a Level 2 measurement in the fair value valuation hierarchy. |

Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of Presentation The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim condensed financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements include all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring items, unless otherwise disclosed herein. Accordingly, the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These interim Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended February 29, 2020 included in our Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year due to the seasonality of our product sales. |
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | New Accounting Pronouncements The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. We have reviewed the recently issued accounting standards updates (“ASU”) and concluded that the following recently issued accounting standards apply to us: In December 2019, the FASB published ASU 2019-12: Income Taxes (Topic 740), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. Topic 740 addresses a number of topics including but not limited to the removal of certain exceptions currently included in the standard related to intra-period allocation when there are losses, in addition to calculation of income taxes when current year-to-date losses exceed anticipated loss for the year. The amendment also simplifies accounting for certain franchise taxes and disclosure of the effect of enacted change in tax laws or rates. Topic 740 is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The impact of the adoption of the standard has not yet been determined and is being evaluated. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04: Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This update provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease potential accounting impacts associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued, such as London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). This ASU includes practical expedients for contract modifications due to reference rate reform. Generally, contract modifications related to reference rate reform may be considered an event that does not require remeasurement or reassessment of a previous accounting determination at the modification date. This ASU is effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company’s debt agreements include the use of alternate rates when LIBOR is not available. We do not expect the change from LIBOR to an alternate rate will have a material impact to our financial statements and, to the extent we enter into modifications of agreements that are impacted by the LIBOR phase-out, we will apply such guidance to those contract modifications. |
