Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Continued

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, provision for doubtful accounts, sales returns, sales price discounts and incentives, excess and obsolete inventory, fair value of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, product warranty obligations, and contingencies and litigation, among others.  The Company generally bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

Cash

The Company holds cash at major financial institutions, which often exceed insurance limits set by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”).  The Company has not historically experienced any losses due to such concentration of credit risk.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes product revenue when the earnings process is complete, as evidenced by persuasive evidence of an arrangement, when the sales price is fixed or determinable, collection of revenue is reasonably assured, and title and risk of loss have passed to the customer.

The Company provides its customers with limited rights of return for non-conforming shipments and product warranty claims.  The Company estimates an allowance for anticipated sales returns based upon an analysis of historical sales returns and other relevant data.  The Company records an allowance at the time of sale, which is recorded as a reduction of product revenue in the statements of operations and as a reduction to accounts receivable in the balance sheet.  Returns for non-conforming shipments have not been significant.

Accounts Receivable

The Company typically invoices its customers at shipment for the sales order value of products shipped.  Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest.  The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to any of its customers.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company evaluates the collectability of accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. In cases where the Company becomes aware of circumstances that may impair a specific customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations subsequent to the original sale, the Company will record an allowance against amounts due, and thereby reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount the Company reasonably believes will be collected. For all other customers, the Company recognizes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the length of time the receivables are past due and consideration of other factors such as industry conditions, the current business environment and its historical experience.  To date, write-offs for uncollectable accounts have not been significant.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market value, with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method.  The Company writes down its inventory balances for estimates of excess and obsolete amounts.  These write-downs are recorded as a component of cost of sales.  At the point of the write-down, a new, lower-cost basis for that inventory is established, and any subsequent improvements in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in that newly established cost basis.  The Company recorded charges for write-downs in inventory of $820 thousand and $0, for the periods ended June 26, 2011 and June 27, 2010, respectively.  Inventories consisted of the following as of June 26, 2011 (in thousands):

Finished goods	$	5,994
Inventory in transit		961
Total	$	6,955

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the assets’ estimated useful lives.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the asset life or the life of the related lease.  In general, the useful lives are as follows:

Building improvements	7 years
Machinery and equipment	7 years
Website development	3 years

Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.  The costs for major renewals and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

Intangible Assets and Goodwill

The Company records the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations at their respective fair values at the date of acquisition, with any excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. Valuation of intangible assets involves significant estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, estimating future cash flows from product sales, developing appropriate discount rates, continuation of customer relationships and renewal of customer contracts, and approximating the useful lives of the intangible assets acquired.

U.S. GAAP requires that intangible assets other than goodwill with an indefinite life should not be amortized until their life is determined to be finite, and all other intangible assets must be amortized over their useful lives. The Company is currently amortizing its acquired intangible assets with definite lives over periods ranging from three to fifteen years.

The Company tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually and potentially more frequently upon the occurrence of certain events. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually using a two-step process. First, the Company determines if the carrying amount of its reporting unit exceeds its fair value (determined using discounted cash flows or market multiples based on revenues), which would indicate a potential impairment of goodwill associated with that reporting unit. If the Company determines that a potential impairment of goodwill exists, it then compares the implied fair value of the goodwill associated with the reporting unit, to its carrying amount to determine if there is an impairment loss.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets such as property, equipment, and definite lived intangible assets for impairment based on changes in circumstances that indicate their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.  In making these determinations, the Company uses certain assumptions, including but not limited to: (1) estimations of the fair market value of the assets, and (2) estimations of future cash flows expected to be generated by these assets, which are based on additional assumptions such as asset utilization, length of service the asset will be used in the Company’s operations and estimated salvage values.

Note 6 – Commitments and Contingencies

Warranties

Product warranties are provided for at the time the Company recognizes revenue.  The Company estimates these warranty liabilities as a percentage of revenue, based on historical knowledge of warranty costs and expected future warranty costs.  If a product failure occurs, the Company records a specific warranty reserve for the costs of the failure.  If actual product failure rates materially differ from these estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required.  During the period ended June 26, 2011 and June 27, 2010, the Company recorded warranty reserves of $0.7 million and $0, respectively.

Contingent Consideration

As discussed in Note 1, in addition to the aggregate acquisition cost of $20.1 million, the Company is liable to make contingent purchase price payments of up to $20.0 million.  The amount of the payment is determined based on an EBITDA target and will be paid each year in which the target is met through March 2022, or until $20.0 million has been paid.  The Company calculates the estimated contingent payments by taking the present value of estimated future EBITDA compared to the targeted EBITDA measures per the related agreement.  The Company recorded a liability in the amount of $3.3 million as of the March 29, 2010 acquisition date.  This liability was remeasured as of December 26, 2010, which resulted in increasing the liability amount to $4.2 million.  The liability is recorded at $4.2 million as of June 26, 2011.

Note 11 – Subsequent Events

On August 17, 2011, the Company entered into a member interest purchase agreement with Ruud Lighting, Inc. whereby the Company’s members sold all membership interests for approximately $39.5 million in cash, with the purchase price subject to certain post closing working capital adjustments.  On September 16, 2011, the buyers submitted to the sellers of the Company a final net operating working capital statement representing net post closing adjustments to working capital in the amount of approximately $58 thousand for consideration.  On September 24, 2011, the sellers submitted a final net working capital objection notice contesting certain post closing adjustments.
