Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies | Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies Principles of consolidation and nature of operations : The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Female Health Company – UK, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, The Female Health Company - UK, plc and The Female Health Company (M) SDN.BHD. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidati on. The Female Health Company ( FHC or the Company) is currently engaged in the marketing, manufacture and distribution of a consumer health care product, the FC2 female condom ( FC2). The Female Health Company - UK, is the holding company of The Female Health Company - UK, plc, which is located in a 6,400 sq. ft. leased office facility located in London, England (collectively the U.K. subsidiary) . The Female Health Company (M) SDN.BHD leases a 45,800 sq. ft. manufacturing facility located in Selangor D.E., Malaysia (the Malaysia subsidiary) . FC2 has been distributed in either or both commercial (private sector) and public health sector markets in 144 countries. It is marketed to consumers through distributors, public health programs and retailers in 16 countries. The Company's standard credit terms vary from 30 to 120 days, depending on the class of trade and customary terms within a territory, so accounts receivable is affected by the mix of purchasers within the period. As is typical in the Company's business, extended credit terms may occasionally be offered as a sales promotion or for certain sales . The Company has agreed to credit terms of up to 150 days with our distributor in the Republic of South Africa. For the most recent order of 15 million units under the Brazil tender, the Company has agreed to up to 360 day credit terms with our distributor in Brazil subject to earlier payment upon receipt of payment by the distributor from the Brazilian Government. For the past twelve months, the Company's average days’ sales outstanding was approximately 131 days. Over the past five years, the Company’s bad debt expense has been less than 0.03 percent of product sales. Use of estimates : The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and use assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Significant accounting estimates include the deferred income tax valuation allowance and the value of share -based compensation. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Cash concentration : The Company’s cash is maintained primarily in three financial institutions, located in Clayton, Missouri, London, England and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia , respectively . Accounts receivable and concentration of credit risk : Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a periodic basis. The components of accounts receivable consist of the following at September 30, 2015 and 2014 : 2015 2014 Trade receivables $ $ Other receivables Accounts receivable, gross Less: allowance for doubtful accounts Accounts receivable, net $ $ The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments on accounts receivable. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer receivables and considers a customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written-off when deemed uncollectible. The table below sets forth the components of the allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended September 30: Balance at Provision Charges Write offs/ Balance at Year October 1 to Expenses Recoveries September 30 2013 $ $ $ $ 2014 $ $ $ $ 2015 $ $ — $ — $ Recoveries of accounts receivable previously written-off are recorded when received. The Company’s customers are primarily large global agencies, non-government organizations, ministries of health and other governmental agencies which purchase and distribute the female condom for use in HIV/AIDS prevention and family planning programs. In fiscal year 201 5 , our significant customers were Sem ina Indústria e Comércio Ltda ( Semina), U nited Nations Population Fund ( UNFPA), and John Snow, Inc., facilitat or of USAID I DELIVER project ( USAID) . In fiscal year 2014, our significant customers were UNFPA, USAID, Sekunjalo Inve stments Corporation (PTY) Ltd ( Sekunjalo) , and Azinor International Lda ( Azinor). In fiscal year 2013, our significant customer was UNFPA. No other single customer accounted for more than 10 percent of unit sales during those periods. Percentage of Unit Sales Significant Customers 2015 2014 2013 Semina * * UNFPA USAID * Sekunjalo * * Azinor * * Total Percentage of Unit Sales _____________________ * Less than 10 percent of unit sales. Semina’s accounts receivable balance represented 46 percent of current assets at September 30, 2015 and UNFPA’s accounts receivable balance represented 12 percent of current assets at September 30, 2014. No other single customer’s accounts receivable balance accounted for more than 10 percent of current assets at the end of those periods. Inventory : Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. The cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories are also written down for management’s estimates of product which will not sell prior to its expiration date. Write-downs of inventories establish a new cost basis which is not increased for future increases in the market value of inventories or changes in estimated obsolescence. Foreign currency translation and operations : Effective October 1, 2009, the Company determined that there were significant changes in facts and circumstances, triggering an evaluation of its subsidiaries’ functional currency. The evaluation indicated that the U.S. dollar is the currency with the most significant influence upon the subsidiaries. Because all of the U.K. subsidiary's future sales and cash flows would be denominated in U.S. dollars following the October 2009 cessation of production of the Company’s first generation product, FC1, the U.K. subsidiary adopted the U.S. dollar as its functional currency effective October 1, 2009. As the Malaysia subsid iary is a direct and integral component of the U.K. parent’s operations, it, too, adopted the U.S. dollar as its functional currency as of October 1, 2009. The consistent use of the U.S. dollar as functional currency across the Company reduces its foreign currency risk and stabilizes its operating results. The Company recognized a foreign currency transaction gain of $ 58,483 and a foreign currency transaction loss of $ 83,844 and $ 101,288 for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 , respectively. The cumulative foreign currency translation loss included in accumulated other comprehensive loss was $581,519 as of September 30, 2015 and 2014 . Assets located outside of the U.S. totaled approximately $10,000,000 and $12,000,000 at September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. Equipment, furniture and fixtures : Depreciation and amortization are computed using primarily the straight-line method. Depreciation and amortization are computed over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets which range as follows: Manufacturing equipment 5 – 10 years Office equipment 3 years Furniture and fixtures 7 – 10 years Depreciation on leased assets is computed over the lesser of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation on leased assets is included with depreciation on owned assets. Patents and trademarks : The costs for patents and trademarks are expensed when incurred. FC2 patents have been issued by the United States, Europe, Canada, Australia, South Africa, the People’s Republic of China, Japan, Mexico, Brazil, India and the African Regional Intellectual Property Organization (ARIPO), which includes Botswana, Gambia, Ghana , Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Sierra Leone, Sudan, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Further, the European patent for FC2 has been validated in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Switzerland, Republic of Cyprus, Czech Republic, Germany, Denmark, Estonia, Spain, Finland, France, United Kingdom, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Monaco, Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Sweden, Slovenia, Slovakia, and Turkey. The patents cover the key aspects of FC2, including its overall design and manufacturing process. The patents have expiration dates in 2023 and 2024. In addition, patent applications for FC2 are pending in a number of other countries around the world. There can be no assurance that pending patent applications provide the Company with protection against copycat products entering markets during the pendency of the applications. The Company has a registration for the trademark “FC2 Female Condom” in the United States. Furthermore, the Company has filed applications or secured registrations in 39 countries or jurisdictions around the world to protect the various names and symbols used in marketing FC2. In addition, the experience that has been gained through years of manufacturing its Female Condoms (FC1 and FC2) has allowed the Company to develop trade secrets and know-how, including certain proprietary production technologies, that further protect its competitive position. Financial instruments : The Company follows ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The Company currently does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis. Substantially all of the Company’s cash , as well as restricted cash , are held in demand deposits with three financial institutions. The Company has no financial instruments for which the carrying value is materially different than fair value. Research and development costs : Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The amount of costs expensed for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 were $219,815 , $5,575 , and $4,745 , respectively . Restricted cash : Restricted cash relates to security provided to one of the Company’s U.K. banks for performance bonds issued in favor of customers. The Company has a facility of $250,000 for such performance bonds. Such security has been extended infrequently and only on occasions where it has been a contract term expressly stipulated as an absolute requirement by the customer or its provi der of funds. The expiration of the bond is defined by the completion of the event such as, but not limited to, a period of time after the product has been distributed or expiratio n of the product shelf life. Restricted cash was $85,697 and $55,806 for the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and is included in cash on the accompanying balance sheets. Revenue recognition : The Company recognizes revenue from product sales when each of the following conditions has been met: an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, there is a fixed price, and collectability is reasonably assured. Share-based compensation : The Company accounts for stock-based compensation expense for equity awards exchanged for services over the vesting period base d on the grant-date fair value. In many instances, the equity awards are issued upon the grant date subject to vesting periods. In certain instances, the equity awards provide for future issuance contingent on future continued employ ment or performance of services as of the issuance date. Advertising : The Company's policy is to expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs were $ 0 , $ 58,121 , and $ 221,718 for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 , respectively. Income taxes : The Company files separate income tax returns for its foreign subsidiaries. ASC Topic 740 requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are also provided for carryforwards for income tax purposes. In addition, the amount of any future tax benefits is reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent such benefits are not expected to be realized. Earnings per share (EPS) : Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period after giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and unvested shares granted to employees and directors. Other comprehensive income : Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as foreign currency translation adjustments, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, these items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. The U.S. parent company and its U.K. subsidiary routinely purchase inventory produced by its Malaysia subsidiary for sale to their respective customers. These intercompany trade accounts are eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s policy and intent is to settle the intercompany trade account on a current basis. Since the U.K. and Malaysia subsidiaries adopted the U.S. dollar as their functional currencies effective October 1, 2009, no foreign currency gains or losses from intercompany trade are recognized. In fiscal 2015, 2014, and 2013 , comprehensive income is equivalent to the reported net income. Reclassifications: Certain items in the 2014 and 2013 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2015 presentation. |

Income Taxes [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Note 6. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets or liabilities for the tax-effected temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The Company completes a detailed analysis of its deferred income tax valuation allowance on an annual basis or more frequently if information comes to our attention that would indicate that a revision to its estimates is necessary. In evaluating the Company’s ability to realize its deferred tax assets, management considers all available positive and negative evidence on a country by country basis, including past operating results and forecast of future taxable income. In determining future taxable income, management makes assumptions to forecast U.S. federal and state, U.K. and Malaysia operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of any feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment regarding the forecasts of the future taxable income in each tax jurisdiction, and are consistent with the forecasts used to manage the Company’s business. It should be noted that the Company realized significant losses through 2005 on a consolidated basis. Since fiscal year 2006, the Company has consistently generated taxable income on a consolidated basis, providing a reasonable future period in which the Company can reasonably expect to generate taxable income. In management’s analysis to determine the amount of the deferred tax asset to recognize, management projected future taxable income for each tax jurisdiction. Although management uses the best information available, it is reasonably possible that the estimates used by the Company will be materially different from the actual results. These differences could have a material effect on the Company's future results of operations and financial condition. Income before income taxes was taxed by the following jurisdictions for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 : 2015 2014 2013 Domestic $ $ $ Foreign Total $ $ $ A reconciliation of income tax expense ( benefit) and the amount computed by applying the statutory Federal income tax rate to income before income taxes for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 is as follows: 2015 2014 2013 Income tax expense at statutory rates $ $ $ State income tax, net of federal benefits Non-deductible expenses Effect of lower foreign income tax rates Effect of change in U.K. tax rate — — Effect of reinvestment allowance - Malaysia — Effect of export allowance - Malaysia — — Effect of change in Illinois tax rate — — Effect of conversion of charitable contribution to NOL — — Other — Change in valuation allowance Income tax expense (benefit) $ $ $ As of September 30, 2015 , the Company had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $ 13,023,000 and $ 12,587,000 , respectively, for income tax purposes expiring in years 20 20 to 2027. The Company's U.K. subsidiary has U.K. net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $ 61,938,000 as of September 30, 2015 , which can be carried forward indefinitely to be used to offset future U.K. taxable income. The federal and state income tax expense (benefit) for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 is summarized below: 2015 2014 2013 Deferred – U.S. $ $ $ Deferred – U.K. Deferred – Malaysia Subtotal Current – U.S. Current – Malaysia Current - U.K. — — Subtotal Income tax expense (benefit) $ $ $ Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows at September 30, 2015 and 2014 : Deferred Tax Assets 2015 2014 Federal net operating loss carryforwards $ $ State net operating loss carryforwards AMT credit carryforward Foreign net operating loss carryforwards – U.K. Foreign capital allowance – U.K. Other, net - Malaysia Share-based compensation Other, net - U.S. Gross deferred tax assets Valuation allowance for deferred tax assets Net deferred tax assets Deferred Tax Liabilities: Foreign capital allowance – Malaysia Net deferred tax assets $ $ The deferred tax amounts have been classified in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at September 30 as follows: 2015 2014 Current assets – U.S. $ $ Current assets – U.K. — Total current assets Long-term assets – U.S. Long-term assets – U.K Total long-term assets Long-term liability – Malaysia $ $ The change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for the years ended September 30 is as follows: Balance at Charged to Costs Balance at Year October 1 and Expenses Deductions/Other September 30 2013 $ $ $ $ 2014 $ $ $ $ 2015 $ $ $ — $ The valuation allowance de creased by $ 16,000 , increased by $ 444,000 , and decreased by $ 10,453,000 for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 , respectively. Under the Internal Revenue Code, certain ownership changes, including the prior issuance of preferred stock, the public offering of common stock and the exercise of common stock warrants and options may subject the Company to annual limitations on the utilization of its net operating loss carryforward. Under the Inland Revenue statutes, certain triggering events may subject the Company to limitations on the utilization of its net operating loss carryforward in the U.K. As of September 30, 2015 , management does not believe any limitations have occurred. The Company has not recorded deferred income taxes applicable to undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because it is the present intention of management to reinvest the undistributed earning indefinitely. Generally such earnings become subject to U.S. tax upon remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of deferred tax or such undistributed earnings. ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740 developed a two-step process to evaluate a tax position and also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company has not recorded a reserve for any tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. The Company files tax returns in all appropriate jurisdictions, including foreign, U.S. Federal and Illinois and Virginia State tax returns. The following summarizes open tax years in the relevant jurisdictions: · For the U.S., a tax return may be audited any time within 3 years from filing date. The U.S. open tax years are for fiscal years 2012 through 2014, which expire in years 2016 through 2018, respectively. · For Malaysia, a tax return may be audited any time within 5 years from filing date ( 7 months after the fiscal year end). The Malaysia open tax years are for 2010 through 2014, which expire on December 31, 2015 through 2019. · For the U.K., a tax return may be audited within 1 year from the later of: the filing date or the filing deadline ( 1 year after the end of the accounting period). T he U.K. open tax year is for 201 4, which expires in 2016 . The fiscal year 2015 tax returns for each jurisdiction have not been filed as of the date of this filing. As of September 30, 2015 and 2014 , the Company has no recorded liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense as incurred. No expense for interest and penalties was recognized for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 . |

It is marketed to consumers through distributors, public health programs and retailers in 16 countries. The Company's standard credit terms vary from 30 to 120 days, depending on the class of trade and customary terms within a territory, so accounts receivable is affected by the mix of purchasers within the period. As is typical in the Company's business, extended credit terms may occasionally be offered as a sales promotion or for certain sales . The Company has agreed to credit terms of up to 150 days with our distributor in the Republic of South Africa. For the most recent order of 15 million units under the Brazil tender, the Company has agreed to up to 360 day credit terms with our distributor in Brazil subject to earlier payment upon receipt of payment by the distributor from the Brazilian Government. For the past twelve months, the Company's average days’ sales outstanding was approximately 131 days. Over the past five years, the Company’s bad debt expense has been less than 0.03 percent of product sales. |
Restricted Cash | Restricted cash : Restricted cash relates to security provided to one of the Company’s U.K. banks for performance bonds issued in favor of customers. The Company has a facility of $250,000 for such performance bonds. Such security has been extended infrequently and only on occasions where it has been a contract term expressly stipulated as an absolute requirement by the customer or its provi der of funds. The expiration of the bond is defined by the completion of the event such as, but not limited to, a period of time after the product has been distributed or expiratio n of the product shelf life. Restricted cash was $85,697 and $55,806 for the years ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and is included in cash on the accompanying balance sheets. |
Use Of Estimates | Use of estimates : The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and use assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Significant accounting estimates include the deferred income tax valuation allowance and the value of share -based compensation. Actual results may differ from those estimates. |
Cash Concentration | Cash concentration : The Company’s cash is maintained primarily in three financial institutions, located in Clayton, Missouri, London, England and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia , respectively . |
Accounts Receivable And Concentration Of Credit Risk | Accounts receivable and concentration of credit risk : Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a periodic basis. The components of accounts receivable consist of the following at September 30, 2015 and 2014 : 2015 2014 Trade receivables $ $ Other receivables Accounts receivable, gross Less: allowance for doubtful accounts Accounts receivable, net $ $ The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments on accounts receivable. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer receivables and considers a customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written-off when deemed uncollectible. The table below sets forth the components of the allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended September 30: Balance at Provision Charges Write offs/ Balance at Year October 1 to Expenses Recoveries September 30 2013 $ $ $ $ 2014 $ $ $ $ 2015 $ $ — $ — $ Recoveries of accounts receivable previously written-off are recorded when received. The Company’s customers are primarily large global agencies, non-government organizations, ministries of health and other governmental agencies which purchase and distribute the female condom for use in HIV/AIDS prevention and family planning programs. In fiscal year 201 5 , our significant customers were Sem ina Indústria e Comércio Ltda ( Semina), U nited Nations Population Fund ( UNFPA), and John Snow, Inc., facilitat or of USAID I DELIVER project ( USAID) . In fiscal year 2014, our significant customers were UNFPA, USAID, Sekunjalo Inve stments Corporation (PTY) Ltd ( Sekunjalo) , and Azinor International Lda ( Azinor). In fiscal year 2013, our significant customer was UNFPA. No other single customer accounted for more than 10 percent of unit sales during those periods. Percentage of Unit Sales Significant Customers 2015 2014 2013 Semina * * UNFPA USAID * Sekunjalo * * Azinor * * Total Percentage of Unit Sales _____________________ * Less than 10 percent of unit sales. Semina’s accounts receivable balance represented 46 percent of current assets at September 30, 2015 and UNFPA’s accounts receivable balance represented 12 percent of current assets at September 30, 2014. No other single customer’s accounts receivable balance accounted for more than 10 percent of current assets at the end of those periods. |
Inventory | Inventory : Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. The cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories are also written down for management’s estimates of product which will not sell prior to its expiration date. Write-downs of inventories establish a new cost basis which is not increased for future increases in the market value of inventories or changes in estimated obsolescence. |
Foreign Currency Translation and Operations | Foreign currency translation and operations : Effective October 1, 2009, the Company determined that there were significant changes in facts and circumstances, triggering an evaluation of its subsidiaries’ functional currency. The evaluation indicated that the U.S. dollar is the currency with the most significant influence upon the subsidiaries. Because all of the U.K. subsidiary's future sales and cash flows would be denominated in U.S. dollars following the October 2009 cessation of production of the Company’s first generation product, FC1, the U.K. subsidiary adopted the U.S. dollar as its functional currency effective October 1, 2009. As the Malaysia subsid iary is a direct and integral component of the U.K. parent’s operations, it, too, adopted the U.S. dollar as its functional currency as of October 1, 2009. The consistent use of the U.S. dollar as functional currency across the Company reduces its foreign currency risk and stabilizes its operating results. The Company recognized a foreign currency transaction gain of $ 58,483 and a foreign currency transaction loss of $ 83,844 and $ 101,288 for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 , respectively. The cumulative foreign currency translation loss included in accumulated other comprehensive loss was $581,519 as of September 30, 2015 and 2014 . Assets located outside of the U.S. totaled approximately $10,000,000 and $12,000,000 at September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. |
Equipment, Furniture And Fixtures | Equipment, furniture and fixtures : Depreciation and amortization are computed using primarily the straight-line method. Depreciation and amortization are computed over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets which range as follows: Manufacturing equipment 5 – 10 years Office equipment 3 years Furniture and fixtures 7 – 10 years Depreciation on leased assets is computed over the lesser of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation on leased assets is included with depreciation on owned assets. |
Patents And Trademarks | Patents and trademarks : The costs for patents and trademarks are expensed when incurred. FC2 patents have been issued by the United States, Europe, Canada, Australia, South Africa, the People’s Republic of China, Japan, Mexico, Brazil, India and the African Regional Intellectual Property Organization (ARIPO), which includes Botswana, Gambia, Ghana , Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Sierra Leone, Sudan, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Further, the European patent for FC2 has been validated in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Switzerland, Republic of Cyprus, Czech Republic, Germany, Denmark, Estonia, Spain, Finland, France, United Kingdom, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Monaco, Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Sweden, Slovenia, Slovakia, and Turkey. The patents cover the key aspects of FC2, including its overall design and manufacturing process. The patents have expiration dates in 2023 and 2024. In addition, patent applications for FC2 are pending in a number of other countries around the world. There can be no assurance that pending patent applications provide the Company with protection against copycat products entering markets during the pendency of the applications. The Company has a registration for the trademark “FC2 Female Condom” in the United States. Furthermore, the Company has filed applications or secured registrations in 39 countries or jurisdictions around the world to protect the various names and symbols used in marketing FC2. In addition, the experience that has been gained through years of manufacturing its Female Condoms (FC1 and FC2) has allowed the Company to develop trade secrets and know-how, including certain proprietary production technologies, that further protect its competitive position. |
Financial Instruments | Financial instruments : The Company follows ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The Company currently does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis. Substantially all of the Company’s cash , as well as restricted cash , are held in demand deposits with three financial institutions. The Company has no financial instruments for which the carrying value is materially different than fair value. |
Research And Development Costs | Research and development costs : Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The amount of costs expensed for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 were $219,815 , $5,575 , and $4,745 , respectively . |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue recognition : The Company recognizes revenue from product sales when each of the following conditions has been met: an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, there is a fixed price, and collectability is reasonably assured. |
Share-based Compensation | Share-based compensation : The Company accounts for stock-based compensation expense for equity awards exchanged for services over the vesting period base d on the grant-date fair value. In many instances, the equity awards are issued upon the grant date subject to vesting periods. In certain instances, the equity awards provide for future issuance contingent on future continued employ ment or performance of services as of the issuance date. |
Advertising | Advertising : The Company's policy is to expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs were $ 0 , $ 58,121 , and $ 221,718 for the years ended September 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013 , respectively. |
Income Taxes | Income taxes : The Company files separate income tax returns for its foreign subsidiaries. ASC Topic 740 requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are also provided for carryforwards for income tax purposes. In addition, the amount of any future tax benefits is reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent such benefits are not expected to be realized. |
Earnings Per Share (EPS) | Earnings per share (EPS) : Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period after giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and unvested shares granted to employees and directors. |
Other Comprehensive Income | Other comprehensive income : Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as foreign currency translation adjustments, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, these items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. The U.S. parent company and its U.K. subsidiary routinely purchase inventory produced by its Malaysia subsidiary for sale to their respective customers. These intercompany trade accounts are eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s policy and intent is to settle the intercompany trade account on a current basis. Since the U.K. and Malaysia subsidiaries adopted the U.S. dollar as their functional currencies effective October 1, 2009, no foreign currency gains or losses from intercompany trade are recognized. In fiscal 2015, 2014, and 2013 , comprehensive income is equivalent to the reported net income. |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications: Certain items in the 2014 and 2013 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2015 presentation. |
