Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of business:
Boss Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries are engaged in the import, marketing, and distribution of gloves, boots, rainwear, pet supplies and specialty lighting products, as well as custom imprinting of inflatable and other products for the advertising specialties industry. Customers, located throughout the world, include retailers ranging from convenience stores to mass merchandisers and various commercial users. The Company sells its products primarily through distributors and manufacturer’s representatives.
Significant accounting policies:
Principles of consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Boss Holdings, Inc. (“BHI”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, Boss Manufacturing Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (“BMHI”) (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
Fiscal year: The Company maintains a 52/53-week year ending on the last Saturday of the calendar year. Fiscal years 2008, 2007 and 2006 contained 52 weeks.
Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements: The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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 from these estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, time deposits, and liquid debt instruments such as commercial paper with maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase.
Accounts receivable: 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 monthly basis. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.
An account is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is past due more than 60 days. The provision for bad debts charged to expense was $96, $65 and $3 for the years ended 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Marketable securities: The Company classifies marketable equity securities as trading or available for sale securities, as defined by the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115,Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities (“SFAS 115”). In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 115, marketable securities are stated at fair value with net unrealized gains and losses included in operations for trading securities and in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for available for sale securities.
The Company’s marketable equity securities, classified as trading, are held in trust under a deferred compensation arrangement, and are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented.

Revenue recognition: The Company recognizes revenue from product sales at the time of shipment based on standard terms of FOB shipping point, with title passing to the customer at time of shipment. Management records estimated reductions to revenue for various customer programs and incentive offerings primarily in the consumer market of the work gloves and protective wear segment. These programs include the following:
- Rebates and other volume-based incentives – the Company records a revenue reduction and associated accrued liability each period based on the estimated rebate total. Rebates paid are then charged to the accrued liability. Each quarter, management compares the accrued liability balance to the estimated rebates payable compiled for all customers and makes adjustments as appropriate to revenues and the accrued rebate liability.
- Terms discounts – the Company offers cash discounts to certain customers, recorded as revenue reductions in each period with an associated accounts receivable allowance. Management periodically analyzes this allowance account to ensure its adequacy, adjusting sales and the accounts receivable allowance when appropriate.
- Cooperative advertising and marketing allowances – the Company supports certain customer advertising and marketing initiatives to promote product sales at retail. In many cases, customers advertise Company products using mutually agreed specifications such as the Boss logo and trade names, with the Company then reimbursing a portion of the advertising cost incurred by the customer. The Company also supports various other advertising and marketing initiatives to promote sales. All such costs are treated as a reduction of revenues for accounting purposes.
- To a lesser extent, the Company occasionally utilizes additional incentives to increase market share such as buying back a competitor’s inventory from a new customer, offering conversion allowances and providing other new customer incentives. Such methods are common in certain retail industry channels. All such costs are treated as a reduction of revenues for accounting purposes.
As of December 27, 2008, the Company’s accrual for customer advertising and promotional activities totaled $990,700. The Company has received no material allowances or credits from any vendors in connection with the purchase or promotion of such vendor’s products.
Cost of sales: The Company’s cost of sales expense includes all costs incident to purchasing goods for sale, transporting them from the supplier to Company facilities, warehousing and shipping goods to the customer. Such costs include product cost, inbound freight, duty, brokerage fees and storage costs as well as shipping and handling costs associated with outbound shipments to customers.
Warranty costs and returns: The Company provides for estimated warranty costs and returns at the time of sale. Accrued costs of warranty obligations and returns are classified as accrued liabilities and are immaterial to the financial statements as a whole.
Inventories: Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market using primarily the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. The Company provides estimated inventory allowances for excess, slow moving and obsolete inventory whose carrying value is in excess of net realizable value. Inventories consist of finished goods for the periods presented.
Property and equipment and depreciation: Property and equipment is recorded at historical cost. The Company provides for depreciation generally using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Buildings and improvements | | 10 - 39 |
Depreciation expense was $491, $492 and $424 for 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Goodwill and other intangibles: Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. In accordance with SFAS No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill is not amortized and, instead, is evaluated for impairment at least annually. The Company performs its impairment test in December each year. Other intangible assets are recorded at cost and amortized over their estimated useful life (see Note 9).
Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The estimated future cash flows are based upon, among other things, assumptions about expected future operating performance, and may differ from actual cash flows. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest) is less than the carrying value of the assets, the assets will be written down to the estimated fair value in the period in which the determination is made (see Note 9).

Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Fair value of financial instruments: Effective December 30, 2007, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157), as it applies to our financial instruments, and Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (SFAS 159). SFAS 157 defines fair value, outlines a framework for measuring fair value, and details the required disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 159 permits companies to irrevocably choose to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparison between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities.
Under SFAS 157, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market. SFAS 157 establishes a hierarchy in determining the fair value of an asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy has three levels of inputs, both observable and unobservable. SFAS 157 requires the utilization of the lowest possible level of input to determine fair value. Level 1 inputs include quoted market prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are market data, other than Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in an inactive market, and other observable information that can be corroborated by market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable and corroborated by little or no market data.
Except for those assets and liabilities which are required by authoritative accounting guidance to be recorded at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, the Company has elected not to record any other assets or liabilities at fair value as permitted by SFAS 159.
The following table provides information on those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
| Carrying Amount | | | | | | Fair Value Measurements Using |

Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Concentrations of credit risk: The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and accounts receivable.
The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“F.D.I.C.”) has temporarily expanded its insurance of cash balances up to $250 per bank. The combined account balances at each institution periodically exceed the F.D.I.C. coverage resulting in a concentration of credit risk for the amounts on deposit in excess of $250. The Company’s management does not believe this credit risk is significant, as they do not anticipate non-performance of the financial institutions.
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited due to the diversity of the Company’s customer base. The Company’s management has established certain credit requirements that its customers must meet before sales credit is extended. The Company generally does not require collateral, but monitors the financial condition of its customers to help ensure collections and to minimize losses. Historically, the Company has not experienced significant losses related to accounts receivable from individual customers or from groups of customers in any geographic area.
Foreign currency translation: Financial statements of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars using fiscal year-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities, and average exchange rates during the year for the results of operations. Translation adjustments of the Canadian accounts are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive earnings within stockholders’ equity. Exchange rate adjustments related to foreign currency transactions are recognized in comprehensive income.
Income taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates applied to taxable income. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred income tax assets when it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized.
Advertising costs: The Company generally expenses the cost of advertising the first time advertising takes place. Costs of trade shows and developing advertising materials are expensed at the time of the trade shows or as the advertising materials are produced and distributed to customers. Advertising expense for 2008, 2007 and 2006 was $789, $818 and $923, respectively.
Stock based compensation:The Company calculates stock-based compensation by estimating the fair value of each option using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards is made as of their respective dates of grant using that option pricing model and is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as a number of subjective assumptions. These variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behavior. The expected term of options granted is derived from historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The risk-free rate selected to value any particular grant is based on the U.S. Treasury rate that corresponds to the pricing term of the grant effective as of the date of the grant. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price. These Factors, as they pertain to future grants, could change in the future, affecting the determination of stock-based compensation expense in future periods.

Earnings per share: Basic net earnings per common share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per common share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus dilutive potential common shares, including options outstanding during the period.
Pending accounting pronouncements:In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157,Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurement. SFAS No. 157 also emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and sets out a fair value hierarchy with the highest priority being quoted prices in active markets. Under SFAS No. 157, fair value measurements are disclosed by level within that hierarchy. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 157-2,Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which permits a one-year deferral for the implementation of SFAS No. 157 with regard to nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company adopted SFAS No. 157 for the fiscal year beginning December 30, 2007, except for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis for which delayed application is permitted until our fiscal year beginning December 28, 2008. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on the results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141(R))”, and SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51 (SFAS No. 160). These new standards significantly change the accounting for and reporting of business combination transactions and noncontrolling interests (previously referred to as minority interests) in consolidated financial statements. Both standards are effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS No. 141R and SFAS No. 160 on the Company’s financial statements.
In April 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (FSP FAS 142-3)”. FSP FAS 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years and should be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date. Early adoption is not permitted. FSP FAS 142-3 also requires expanded disclosure related to the determination of intangible asset useful lives for intangible assets and should be applied to all intangible assets recognized as of, and subsequent to the effective date. The impact of FSP FAS 142-3 will depend on the size and nature of acquisitions on or after December 28, 2008.

Note 8. Acquisitions
Canadawide Safety, Inc:
On May 18, 2007, Boss Canada Inc. (“Boss Canada”), an indirect subsidiary of Boss Holdings, Inc. (“BHI”), purchased all outstanding shares of privately held Navillus Group Inc., an Ontario corporation. Through it’s wholly owned subsidiary, Canadawide Safety Inc. (“Canadawide”), the acquired company imports and distributes safety goods and industrial work wear, including gloves, protective eyewear, face and respiratory protection, as well as first aid and industrial supplies. Immediately following the closing, Canadawide and Navillus Group Inc. were merged with Canadawide as the surviving entity.
The base purchase price was Cdn$400 (approximately US$364), with Cdn$350 due on closing and Cdn$50 due on May 18, 2008. Boss Canada utilized a term loan of Cdn$400 provided through the Canadian branch of BHI’s primary lender to acquire the shares and pay down Cdn$50 of assumed debt. At the same time, Boss Canada entered into a Cdn$100 line of credit for working capital requirements.
This transaction was accounted for using purchase accounting and has been included in the Company’s operations since the date of acquisition. The estimated allocation of purchase price is as follows in US dollars:
Acquisition cost: | | | |
Base purchase price | $ | 364 | |
Closing Costs | | 19 | |
Total | $ | 383 | |
|
Allocation of purchase cost: | | | |
Current assets | $ | 216 | |
Property and equipment | | 14 | |
Customer Lists | | 100 | |
Goodwill | | 255 | |
Accounts payable and accrued expenses | | (202 | ) |
| | 383 | |
Less Acquisition indebtedness | | 46 | |
| $ | 337 | |
Dipcraft Balloon Company:
In November of 2007 Galaxy Balloons acquired certain assets of Dipcraft Balloon Company for a total cash consideration of $350. Fixed assets accounted for $7 of the purchase with the remaining $343 assigned to customer list.
During 2007 the Company made the final $200,000 acquisition contingency payment in conjunction with the purchase of Galaxy Balloons in 2004.
Had these acquisitions taken place on December 30, 2006, consolidated sales and income would not have been significantly different from the amounts reported for 2007 and 2008.

Note 9. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
In connection with its purchases of Galaxy during 2004, Head-Lite, LLC., during 2005, and Canadawide during 2007, the Company recorded goodwill of $3,666. Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of the business acquired. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, the Company does not amortize the goodwill associated with these acquisitions since it has an indefinite life. Instead, management tests goodwill for impairment in the fourth quarter of each year, or if certain circumstances indicate the existence of a possible impairment. Management’s impairment test considers the carrying value of the reporting unit for each acquisition, including goodwill, in relation to its fair value based upon earnings generated. Expected earnings are calculated based on a discounted cash flow methodology. The determination of the reporting units is based on the Company’s organizational structure and the financial information that is provided to and reviewed by management. The reporting units are the Galaxy, BMC and Boss Canada divisions for the Galaxy, Head-Lite and Canadawide acquisitions, respectively.
The Company’s goodwill impairment evaluation as of December 27, 2008 indicated that the goodwill for the Galaxy acquisition was not impaired, while the goodwill for Head-Lite LLC and Canadawide was found to be impaired. When the carrying value of the net assets assigned to a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of a reporting unit, a second step of the impairment test is performed to determine the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill. This step requires valuation of a reporting unit’s tangible and intangible assets, and liabilities in a manner similar to the allocation of purchase price in a business combination. Based on that step, management concluded that, no fair value remains for the goodwill of the Head-Lite, LLC. and the Canadawide acquisitions. Therefore, goodwill impairment losses of $527 and $230 were recognized in the Boss Manufacturing Company and the Boss Canada divisions, respectively. These expenses have been recorded in the asset impairment losson the consolidated statements of income. After the impairment losses, $2,853 in goodwill remains at year-end related to the Galaxy acquisition.
The Company determined that an impairment evaluation was required for Head-Lite’s patent, based on a sharp decline in an historical downward trend of sales for the Head-Lite product line. The impairment analysis performed as of December 27, 2008 indicated that the patent was fully impaired, resulting in an impairment loss of $35. This expense was also recorded in the asset impairment loss on the consolidated statements of income. The Company’s evaluations used significant assumptions by division, including: expected future revenue and expense growth rates, cost of capital, discount rate and forecasted capital expenditures. The projections assume a decline in revenue in 2009 followed by a slow recovery based on the general economic downturn and expectations of the economic recovery. Assumptions and estimates about future cash flows and discount rates are complex and may be subjective. They can be affected by a variety of external and internal factors. Management believes the assumptions and estimates made in these evaluations were reasonable and appropriate, however, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact the projected earnings.

Note 10. Income Taxes (Continued)
Prior to the third quarter of 2004 the Company had provided a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. Historically the profitability of the Company was somewhat volatile and there was not consistent profitability from the core operating segments. During the third quarter of 2004, management determined that based on the stabilizing of the profitability of the core operating segments and anticipated sales growth, it was more likely than not that a portion of the NOL would be utilized. Accordingly the Company reduced the valuation allowance by $3,127 and recognized a commensurate tax benefit in 2004. In the fourth quarter of 2006 the Company reevaluated its estimates and based on its current and projected profitability and the higher sales volumes being realized in the work glove and protective wear segment, determined that it was more likely than not that it would be able to utilize an additional $2,730 of its remaining NOL carryforwards. Accordingly, at the end of 2006 the Company reduced its valuation allowance to $6,500 and recognized a $2,730 tax benefit. Management again reevaluated its profitability trends during the fourth quarter of 2008 and, based upon its current and projected profitability and the uncertainties surrounding expected future earnings, management did not adjust its net deferred tax asset in 2008.
As of December 27, 2008, the Company had operating loss carryforwards for U.S. income tax purposes of $24,289 available to reduce future taxable income through the following years:
Year of expiration: | | |
2011 | $ | 13,624 |
2012 | | 9,197 |
2019 | | 535 |

As of December 27, 2008, the Company had operating loss carryforwards for Canadian income tax purposes of approximately $486. The operating losses are available to reduce future taxable income through the following years:

Note 10. Income Taxes (Continued)
On December 31, 2006, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of SFAS No. 109 (“FIN 48”). This statement clarifies the criteria that an individual tax position must satisfy for some or all of the benefits of that position to be recognized in a company’s financial statements. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not, and a measurement attribute for all tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return, in order for those tax positions to be recognized in the financial statements. The adoption of FIN 48 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
As of December 27, 2008 the remaining amount of the FIN 48 reserve was $13. During 2008, approximately $90 was utilized for settlements with state taxing authorities. The Company is generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2005, and no longer subject to foreign income tax examinations for years prior to 2004. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in the provision for income taxes. All unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. The liability for unrecognized tax benefits includes accrued interest for tax positions, which either do not meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold or where the tax benefit is measured at an amount less than the tax benefit claimed or expected to be claimed on an income tax return.
Note 11. Comprehensive Income (Loss)
SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. SFAS 130 requires that all items required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income must be disclosed in the financial statements.
Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events from non-owner sources. Comprehensive income (loss) is the total of net income and other comprehensive income (loss), which for the Company is comprised of foreign currency items and the unrealized gains and losses on the interest rate swap agreements, net of income taxes. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) consists of the following:
