Document Security Systems, Inc. (the “Company”), through two of its subsidiaries, Premier Packaging Corporation, which operates under the assumed name of DSS Packaging Group, and Plastic Printing Professionals, Inc., which operates under the assumed name of DSS Plastics Group, operates in the security and commercial printing, packaging and plastic ID markets. The Company develops, markets, manufactures and sells paper and plastic products designed to protect valuable information from unauthorized scanning, copying, and digital imaging. The Company's subsidiary, Extradev, Inc., which operates under the assumed name of DSS Digital Group, develops, markets and sells digital information services, including data hosting, disaster recovery and data back-up and security services. The Company's subsidiary as a result of a merger completed on July 1, 2013 , DSS Technology Management, Inc., acquires intellectual property assets, interests in companies owning intellectual property assets, or assists others in managing their intellectual property monetization efforts, for the purpose of monetizing these assets through a variety of value-enhancing initiatives, including, but not limited to, investments in the development and commercialization of patented technologies, licensing, strategic partnerships and commercial litigation. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8.03 of Regulation S-X for smaller reporting companies. Accordingly, these statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying balance sheets and related interim statements of operations and comprehensive loss and cash flows include all adjustments, considered necessary for their fair presentation in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the full year. For further information regarding the Company's accounting policies, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions. In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Restricted Cash – As of March 31, 2015, cash of $337,307 ($355,793 – December 31, 2014) is restricted for payments of costs and expenses associated with one of the Company's IP monetization programs. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Derivative Instruments - The Company maintains an overall interest rate risk management strategy that incorporates the use of interest rate swap contracts to minimize significant fluctuations in earnings that are caused by interest rate volatility. The Company has an interest rate swap that changes a variable rate into a fixed rate on a term loan. The swap qualifies as Level 2 fair value financial instrument. The swap agreement is not held for trading purposes and the Company does not intend to sell the derivative swap financial instrument. The Company records the interest swap agreement on the balance sheet at fair value because the agreement qualifies as cash flow hedge under U.S. GAAP. Gains and losses on the instrument are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) until the underlying transaction is recorded in earnings. When the hedged item is realized, gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations on the same line item as the underlying transaction. The valuation of the interest rate swap is derived from proprietary models of Citizens Bank (defined below) based upon recognized financial principles and reasonable estimates about relevant future market conditions and may reflect certain other financial factors such as anticipated profit or hedging, transactional, and other costs. The notional amounts of the swap decreases over the life of the agreement. The Company is exposed to a credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counter parties to the interest rate swap agreement. However, the Company does not anticipate non-performance by the counter parties. The cumulative net loss attributable to this cash flow hedge recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and other liabilities at March 31, 2015 was approximately $77,000 ($61,000 - December 31, 2014), which is included in other long-term liabilities on the balance sheet. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company has a notional amount of approximately $1,064,000 as of March 31, 2015 on its interest rate swap agreement for its debt with RBS Citizens, N.A. (“Citizens Bank”) (See Note 5) which changes a variable rate into fixed rate on a term loan as follows: | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Notional | Variable | |||||||||||||||||||||
Amount | Rate | Fixed Cost | Maturity Date | |||||||||||||||||||
$ | 1,064,104 | 3.33 | % | 5.87 | % | August 30, 2021 | ||||||||||||||||
Impairment of Long Lived Assets and Goodwill - Long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill are assessed for the potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that full recoverability of net asset balances through future cash flows is in question. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are assessed at least annually, but also whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying values may not be recoverable. Factors that could trigger an impairment review, include (a) significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results; (b) significant changes in the manner of or use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business; (c) significant negative industry or economic trends; (d) significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period; and a decline in our market capitalization below net book value. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Goodwill - Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the fair value of amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is subject to impairment testing at least annually and will be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicated the carrying amount may be impaired. FASB ASC Topic 350 provides an entity with the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. If the two-step impairment test is necessary, a fair-value-based test is applied at the reporting unit level, which is generally one level below the operating segment level. The test compares the fair value of an entity's reporting units to the carrying value of those reporting units. This test requires various judgments and estimates. The Company estimates the fair value of the reporting unit using a market approach in combination with a discounted operating cash flow approach. Impairment of goodwill is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of goodwill over the fair values of recognized and unrecognized assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. An adjustment to goodwill will be recorded for any goodwill that is determined to be impaired. During the Company's annual assessment of goodwill in 2014, the Company assessed that the negative trends in patent litigation that have recently reduced the success of patent owners in protecting their patents in the federal court system had caused an impairment of the Company's goodwill assigned to its DSS Technology Management division and accordingly, the Company recorded a $3,000,000 goodwill impairment charge to the goodwill assigned to its DSS Technology Management division. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Contingent Legal Expenses - Contingent legal fees are expensed in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that the related revenues are recognized. In instances where there are no recoveries from potential infringers, no contingent legal fees are paid; however, the Company may be liable for certain out of pocket legal costs incurred pursuant to the underlying legal services agreement that will be paid out from the proceeds from settlements or licenses that arise pursuant to an enforcement action, which will be expensed as legal fees in the period in which the payment of such fees is probable. Any unamortized patent acquisition costs will be expensed in the period in which a conclusion is reached in an enforcement action that does not yield future royalties potential. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Earnings Per Common Share - The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share reflect the actual weighted average of shares issued and outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed including the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential shares had been issued. In a loss period, the calculation for basic and diluted earnings per share is considered to be the same, as the impact of potential common shares is anti-dilutive. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
As of March 31, 2015 and 2014, there were 11,468,047 and 19,618,892 respectively, of common stock share equivalents potentially issuable under convertible debt agreements, employment agreements, options, warrants, overallotment options, and restricted stock agreements, that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future. These shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share in periods in which the Company had a net loss because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive to the Company's losses in the respective periods. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk - The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk as a result of any non-performance by the financial institutions. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, one customer accounted for 14% and 26%, respectively, of the Company's consolidated revenue and accounted for 8% of the Company's trade accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2015. The risk with respect to trade receivables is mitigated by credit evaluations the Company performs on its customers, the short duration of its payment terms for the significant majority of its customer contracts and by the diversification of its customer base. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Reclassifications - Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Continuing Operations - The Company has incurred significant net losses in previous years and through the first three months of 2015. The Company's ability to fund its current and future commitments out of its available cash and cash generated from its operations depends on a number of factors. Some of these factors include the Company's ability to (i) increase sales of the Company's digital products; (ii) decrease legal and professional expenses for the Company's intellectual property monetization business; and (iii) continue to generate operating profits from the Company's packaging and plastic printing operations. As of March 31, 2015, the Company had approximately $1,592,000 in unrestricted cash and $337,000 in restricted cash and up to $800,000 available under a revolving credit line at its packaging subsidiary, which may not be sufficient to cover the Company's future working capital requirements if these and other factors are not met. If the Company cannot generate sufficient cash from its operations, the Company may need to raise additional funds in the future in order to fund its working capital needs and pursue its growth strategy, although there can be no assurances, management believes that sources for these additional funds will be available through either current or future investors. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted – | ||||||||||||||||||||||
In May 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on revenue from contracts with customers. The new guidance requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated guidance will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either a retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its financial statements and related disclosures. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern." The guidance requires an entity to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. The guidance is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company does not believe the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on its financial statements. |

On January 5, 2015, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California issued a decision granting summary judgment to defendant Facebook, Inc. in connection with a lawsuit filed on October 3, 2012 by Plaintiff Bascom Research, LLC (a subsidiary of the Company) alleging patent infringement. As a result of the Court's decision, the Company evaluated the valuation of the patents that were the basis of the case for impairment as of December 31, 2014. The Company determined that since the patents had been invalidated the probability of future cash flows derived from the patents that would support the value of the assets had decreased so the assets were impaired. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge for the underlying patent assets of the net book value of the patents as of December 31, 2014 of approximately $22,285,000. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
On March 3, 2015, a Markman hearing was held in the Eastern District of Texas in connection with the pending DSS Technology Management v.Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, Limited, et. al (“TSMC”) case. Based on the District Court's claim construction order issued on April 9, 2015, the Company's subsidiary, DSS Technology Management and TSMC entered in to a Joint Stipulation and Proposed Final Judgment of Non-Infringement dated May 4, 2015, subject to DSS Technology Management's right to appeal the court's claim construction decision to the Federal Circuit, thus preserving the status quo in the event an appeal results in remand for further proceedings in the District Court. During its review for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company determined that this court action was a triggering event requiring that goodwill and certain of the Company's intangible assets be tested for impairment as of March 31, 2015. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In performing the impairment analysis related to the Company's subsidiary DSS Technology Management's intangible assets, the Company determined that the patent portfolio containing the patents being litigated in DSS Technology Management's suits against TSMC, Samsung, and Intel, among others, had a net carrying value of approximately $1.4 million as of March 31, 2015. In the second step of the impairment test, the Company utilized its projections of future undiscounted cash flows based on the Company's existing use of the patents. As a result, it was determined that the Company's projections of future undiscounted cash flows were greater than the carrying value of the asset group. Accordingly, the Company did not perform the second step of the impairment test and deemed no impairment had occurred | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The carrying amount of the Company's goodwill as of March 31, 2015 was approximately $12 million of which approximately $9.6 million is allocated to the Company's subsidiary DSS Technology Management as a reportable unit. As a result of the aforementioned triggering event, the Company performed the first step of the goodwill impairment test on the goodwill allocated to DSS Technology Management in order to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. For the Company's DSS Technology Management reporting unit, a significant amount of future value is based on the value of patents and patent rights, the Company uses a valuation methodology that assess the potential value of the claims against parties the Company believes have infringed on the patents and therefore, the Company has the rights to receive royalties for those infringers. The Company assessed the impact of the decision in the TSMC case referenced above on the expected future value of those assets. Based on the Company's analysis, the Company determined that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded the carrying value of the reporting unit, and therefore, no impairment of goodwill had occurred. |

Mar. 31, 2015 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions. In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash – As of March 31, 2015, cash of $337,307 ($355,793 – December 31, 2014) is restricted for payments of costs and expenses associated with one of the Company's IP monetization programs. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Derivative Instruments | Derivative Instruments - The Company maintains an overall interest rate risk management strategy that incorporates the use of interest rate swap contracts to minimize significant fluctuations in earnings that are caused by interest rate volatility. The Company has an interest rate swap that changes a variable rate into a fixed rate on a term loan. The swap qualifies as Level 2 fair value financial instrument. The swap agreement is not held for trading purposes and the Company does not intend to sell the derivative swap financial instrument. The Company records the interest swap agreement on the balance sheet at fair value because the agreement qualifies as cash flow hedge under U.S. GAAP. Gains and losses on the instrument are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) until the underlying transaction is recorded in earnings. When the hedged item is realized, gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) to the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations on the same line item as the underlying transaction. The valuation of the interest rate swap is derived from proprietary models of Citizens Bank (defined below) based upon recognized financial principles and reasonable estimates about relevant future market conditions and may reflect certain other financial factors such as anticipated profit or hedging, transactional, and other costs. The notional amounts of the swap decreases over the life of the agreement. The Company is exposed to a credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counter parties to the interest rate swap agreement. However, the Company does not anticipate non-performance by the counter parties. The cumulative net loss attributable to this cash flow hedge recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and other liabilities at March 31, 2015 was approximately $77,000 ($61,000 - December 31, 2014), which is included in other long-term liabilities on the balance sheet. | |||||||||||||||||||||
The Company has a notional amount of approximately $1,064,000 as of March 31, 2015 on its interest rate swap agreement for its debt with RBS Citizens, N.A. (“Citizens Bank”) (See Note 5) which changes a variable rate into fixed rate on a term loan as follows: | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Notional | Variable | |||||||||||||||||||||
Amount | Rate | Fixed Cost | Maturity Date | |||||||||||||||||||
$ | 1,064,104 | 3.33 | % | 5.87 | % | August 30, 2021 | ||||||||||||||||
Impairment of Long Lived Assets and Goodwill | Impairment of Long Lived Assets and Goodwill - Long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill are assessed for the potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that full recoverability of net asset balances through future cash flows is in question. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are assessed at least annually, but also whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying values may not be recoverable. Factors that could trigger an impairment review, include (a) significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results; (b) significant changes in the manner of or use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business; (c) significant negative industry or economic trends; (d) significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period; and a decline in our market capitalization below net book value. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Goodwill | Goodwill - Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the fair value of amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is subject to impairment testing at least annually and will be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicated the carrying amount may be impaired. FASB ASC Topic 350 provides an entity with the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. If the two-step impairment test is necessary, a fair-value-based test is applied at the reporting unit level, which is generally one level below the operating segment level. The test compares the fair value of an entity's reporting units to the carrying value of those reporting units. This test requires various judgments and estimates. The Company estimates the fair value of the reporting unit using a market approach in combination with a discounted operating cash flow approach. Impairment of goodwill is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of goodwill over the fair values of recognized and unrecognized assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. An adjustment to goodwill will be recorded for any goodwill that is determined to be impaired. During the Company's annual assessment of goodwill in 2014, the Company assessed that the negative trends in patent litigation that have recently reduced the success of patent owners in protecting their patents in the federal court system had caused an impairment of the Company's goodwill assigned to its DSS Technology Management division and accordingly, the Company recorded a $3,000,000 goodwill impairment charge to the goodwill assigned to its DSS Technology Management division. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Contingent Legal Expenses | Contingent Legal Expenses - Contingent legal fees are expensed in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that the related revenues are recognized. In instances where there are no recoveries from potential infringers, no contingent legal fees are paid; however, the Company may be liable for certain out of pocket legal costs incurred pursuant to the underlying legal services agreement that will be paid out from the proceeds from settlements or licenses that arise pursuant to an enforcement action, which will be expensed as legal fees in the period in which the payment of such fees is probable. Any unamortized patent acquisition costs will be expensed in the period in which a conclusion is reached in an enforcement action that does not yield future royalties potential. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Earnings Per Common Share | Earnings Per Common Share - The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share reflect the actual weighted average of shares issued and outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed including the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential shares had been issued. In a loss period, the calculation for basic and diluted earnings per share is considered to be the same, as the impact of potential common shares is anti-dilutive. | |||||||||||||||||||||
As of March 31, 2015 and 2014, there were 11,468,047 and 19,618,892 respectively, of common stock share equivalents potentially issuable under convertible debt agreements, employment agreements, options, warrants, overallotment options, and restricted stock agreements, that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future. These shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share in periods in which the Company had a net loss because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive to the Company's losses in the respective periods. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk - The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk as a result of any non-performance by the financial institutions. | |||||||||||||||||||||
During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, one customer accounted for 14% and 26%, respectively, of the Company's consolidated revenue and accounted for 8% of the Company's trade accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2015. The risk with respect to trade receivables is mitigated by credit evaluations the Company performs on its customers, the short duration of its payment terms for the significant majority of its customer contracts and by the diversification of its customer base. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Reclassifications | Reclassifications - Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Continuing Operations | Continuing Operations - The Company has incurred significant net losses in previous years and through the first three months of 2015. The Company's ability to fund its current and future commitments out of its available cash and cash generated from its operations depends on a number of factors. Some of these factors include the Company's ability to (i) increase sales of the Company's digital products; (ii) decrease legal and professional expenses for the Company's intellectual property monetization business; and (iii) continue to generate operating profits from the Company's packaging and plastic printing operations. As of March 31, 2015, the Company had approximately $1,592,000 in unrestricted cash and $337,000 in restricted cash and up to $800,000 available under a revolving credit line at its packaging subsidiary, which may not be sufficient to cover the Company's future working capital requirements if these and other factors are not met. If the Company cannot generate sufficient cash from its operations, the Company may need to raise additional funds in the future in order to fund its working capital needs and pursue its growth strategy, although there can be no assurances, management believes that sources for these additional funds will be available through either current or future investors. | |||||||||||||||||||||
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted | New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted – | |||||||||||||||||||||
In May 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on revenue from contracts with customers. The new guidance requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated guidance will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either a retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its financial statements and related disclosures. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern." The guidance requires an entity to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. The guidance is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company does not believe the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on its financial statements. |
