NOTE 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | |||||||||||||||||||
Organization and Business | |||||||||||||||||||
Socket Mobile, Inc. (the “Company”), produces barcode scanning and mobile handheld computer products serving the business mobility market and designed for the mobile worker. The Company offers a family of cordless barcode scanning products that connect over Bluetooth with smartphones, tablets and mobile computers. The Company also offers wearable cordless ring scanners for hands free barcode scanning. The Company offers a family of general purpose handheld computer products running the Windows Embedded Handheld System 6.5 operating system and a wide range of accessories including plug-in two dimensional (2D) and linear (1D) bar code scanners, cradles, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) readers, and magnetic stripe readers. The Company also offers customized versions of its handheld computers as OEM products to third-party companies. The Company’s cordless hand scanners work with many third-party mobile handheld devices, and the Company’s plug-in data collection products work with the Company’s handheld computers. For a complete description of the Company’s products see “Products” in “Item 1. Business.” | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company works closely with software application developers offering or developing software applications for use with the Company’s family of barcode scanners and mobile handheld computers. The Company offers software developers kits to enable developers to easily integrate the Company’s barcode scanning products into their applications, and to enable greater hardware control in applications using the Company’s mobile handheld computers. The Company’s family of barcode scanners are designed to work with a wide range of smartphones, tablets, and computers running operating systems from Apple (iOS), Google (Android), and Microsoft (Windows/Windows Mobile). The primary segments being addressed by our registered developers are retail point of sale, healthcare, and commercial services. Healthcare and hospitality are two of the primary areas of focus for software application developers who have developed applications for use on the Company’s handheld computers. Other vertical markets benefiting from mobile solutions include inspections, automotive, government and education. These mobile application solutions are designed to improve the productivity of business enterprises and service providers. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company subcontracts the manufacturing of substantially all of its products to independent third-party contract manufacturers who are located in the U.S., Mexico, China and Taiwan and who have the equipment, know-how and capacity to manufacture products to the Company’s specifications. The Company markets its products through a worldwide network of distributors and resellers, as well as through original equipment manufacturers and value added resellers. The geographic regions served by the Company include the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific. The Company’s total employee headcount on December 31, 2013 was 48 people. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company was founded in March 1992 as Socket Communications, Inc. and reincorporated in Delaware in 1995 prior to the Company’s initial public offering in June 1995. The Company began doing business as Socket Mobile, Inc. in January 2007 to better reflect its market focus on the mobile business market, and changed its legal name to Socket Mobile, Inc. in April 2008. The Company’s common stock trades on the OTCQB Marketplace under the symbol “SCKT.” The Company’s principal executive offices are located at 39700 Eureka Drive, Newark, CA 94560. | |||||||||||||||||||
Liquidity and Going Concern | |||||||||||||||||||
During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred net losses of $620,493 and $3,298,082, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $61,122,674. The Company’s cash balance at December 31, 2013 was $606,255. At December 31, 2013, the Company had additional unused borrowing capacity of approximately $103,000 on its bank lines of credit (approximately $93,000 and $10,000, respectively, on the domestic and international credit lines). The Company’s balance sheet at December 31, 2013 has a current ratio (current assets divided by current liabilities) of 0.4 to 1.0, and a working capital deficit of $4,264,694 (current assets less current liabilities). These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. | |||||||||||||||||||
In the last three years the Company has taken actions to reduce its expenses and to align its cost structure with economic conditions. The Company has the ability to further reduce expenses if necessary. Steps taken by the Company to reduce operating losses and achieve profitability include reduction of headcount to manage payroll costs, the introduction of new products, and continued close support of the Company’s distributors and application development partners as they establish their mobile applications in key vertical markets. The Company believes it will be able to further improve its liquidity and secure additional sources of financing by managing its working capital balances, use of its bank lines of credit, and raising additional capital as needed including development funding from development partners and the issuance of additional equity securities. However, there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms, if at all, and any such terms may be dilutive to existing stockholders. The Company’s bank lines of credit may be terminated by the bank or by the Company at any time. If the Company cannot maintain profitability, it will not be able to support its operations from positive cash flows, and would use its existing cash to support operating losses. If the Company is unable to secure the necessary capital for its business, it may need to suspend some or all of its current operations. | |||||||||||||||||||
If the Company can maintain revenue growth and attain ongoing profitability, it anticipates requirements for cash will include funding of higher receivable and inventory balances, and increased expenses, including an increase of costs relating to new employees to support our growth and increases in salaries, benefits, and related support costs for employees. | |||||||||||||||||||
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the Company’s inability to continue as a going concern. | |||||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates | |||||||||||||||||||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||||
Cash Equivalents | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity date of 90 days or less at date of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents consisted of demand and money market deposits held in accounts within a single bank. | |||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||||||
The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, debt and foreign exchange contracts approximate fair value due to the relatively short period of time to maturity. | |||||||||||||||||||
Derivative Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company's primary objective for holding derivative financial instruments is to manage foreign currency risks. The Company's derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value and are included in other current assets, other assets, other accrued liabilities or long-term debt depending on the contractual maturity and whether the Company has a gain or loss. The Company's accounting policies for these instruments are based on whether they meet the Company's criteria for designation as hedging transactions, either as cash flow or fair value hedges. A hedge of the exposure to variability in the cash flows of an asset or a liability, or of a forecasted transaction, is referred to as a cash flow hedge. A hedge of the exposure to changes in fair value of an asset or a liability, or of an unrecognized firm commitment, is referred to as a fair value hedge. The criteria for designating a derivative as a hedge include the instrument's effectiveness in risk reduction and, in most cases, a one-to-one matching of the derivative instrument to its underlying transaction. Gains and losses on derivatives that are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes are recognized currently in earnings. The Company regularly enters into forward foreign currency contracts to reduce exposures related to rate changes in certain foreign currencies. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company's forward foreign currency contracts are recorded at fair value at December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013, these derivative instruments were not designated as hedges, and accordingly, changes in the fair value of the forward foreign currency contracts were recorded in earnings. At December 31, 2013 contracts with a notional amount of $171,750 to hedge Euros had a fair value of an immaterial amount based on quotations from financial institutions, and had maturity dates in January 2014. At December 31, 2012 contracts with a notional amount of $264,400 to hedge Euros and $185,185 to hedge Yen had fair values of an immaterial amount for each currency based on quotations from financial institutions, and had maturity dates in January 2013. | |||||||||||||||||||
Foreign Currency | |||||||||||||||||||
The functional currency for the Company is the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rates on the balance sheet dates. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Any translation adjustments resulting from this process are shown separately as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within shareholders’ equity in the balance sheets. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are reported in other income and expense, net, in the statements of income. | |||||||||||||||||||
Accounts Receivable Allowances | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company estimates the amount of uncollectible accounts receivable at the end of each reporting period based on the aging of the receivable balance, current and historical customer trends, and communications with its customers. Amounts are written off only after considerable collection efforts have been made and the amounts are determined to be uncollectible. The following describes activity in the allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012: | |||||||||||||||||||

2012 | $ | 89,058 | $ | — | $ | — | $ | 89,058 | |||||||||||
Inventories | |||||||||||||||||||
Inventories consist principally of raw materials and sub-assemblies stated at the lower of standard cost, which approximates actual costs (first-in, first-out method), or market. Market is defined as replacement cost, but not in excess of estimated net realizable value or less than estimated net realizable value less a normal margin. At the end of each reporting period, the Company compares its inventory on hand to its forecasted requirements for the next nine month period and the Company writes-off the cost of any inventory that is surplus, less any amounts that the Company believes it can recover from the disposal of goods that it specifically believes will be saleable past a nine month horizon. The Company’s sales forecasts are based upon historical trends, communications from customers, and marketing data regarding market trends and dynamics. Changes in the amounts recorded for surplus or obsolete inventory are included in cost of revenue. Inventory components at year-end, net of write-downs, are presented in the following table: | |||||||||||||||||||

Finished goods | 59,732 | 19,390 | |||||||||||||||||
$ | 1,105,088 | $ | 941,067 | ||||||||||||||||
Property and Equipment | |||||||||||||||||||
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method, over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from one to five years. Assets under capital leases are amortized in a manner consistent with the Company’s normal depreciation policy for owned assets, or the remaining lease term as applicable. Depreciation expense in the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, was $221,337 and $264,512, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||||
Goodwill | |||||||||||||||||||
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually as of September 30th or more frequently when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the Company's single reporting unit more likely than not exceeds its fair value. The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment analysis as of September 30, 2013. The Company used the two-step test as required to assess goodwill for impairment. The first step of the goodwill impairment test consisted of comparing the carrying value of the reporting unit to its fair value. Management estimated the fair value of the Company's reporting unit using various methods and compared the fair value to the carrying amount (net book value) to ascertain if potential goodwill impairment existed. The Company utilized methods that focused on its ability to produce income ("Income Approach") and the Company’s market capitalization ("Market Capitalization Approach"). Key assumptions utilized in the determination of fair value in step one of the test included the following: the Company's market capitalization; revenue and expense forecasts used in the evaluation were based on trends of historical performance and management's estimate of future performance; cash flows utilized in the discounted cash flow analysis were estimated using a weighted average cost of capital determined to be appropriate for the Company. No impairment of goodwill was recorded in the two years ended December 31, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||||
Deferred Rent | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company operates its headquarters under a non-cancelable operating lease. The Company recognizes rent expense under its lease on a straight line basis measured over the term of the lease. The excess of accumulated rental expense measured on a straight lined basis over actual accumulated rent paid is capitalized as a liability on the Company’s balance sheet in its short and long term components. Deferred rent at December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $228,773 and $179,527, respectively, and was classified as long term at each reporting date. | |||||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk | |||||||||||||||||||
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company invests its cash in demand and money market deposit accounts in banks. To the extent of the amounts recorded on the balance sheet, cash is concentrated at the Company’s bank to the extent needed to comply with the minimum liquidity ratio of the bank line agreement. To date, the Company has not experienced losses on these investments. The Company’s trade accounts receivables are primarily with distributors and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions but the Company generally requires no collateral. Reserves are maintained for potential credit losses, and such losses have been within management’s expectations. Customers who accounted for at least 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balances at December 31, 2013 and 2012, were as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||
December 31, | December 31, | ||||||||||||||||||
2013 | 2012 | ||||||||||||||||||
Company A | 43 | % | 16 | % | |||||||||||||||
Company B | 28 | % | 28 | % | |||||||||||||||
Company C | 14 | % | 12 | % | |||||||||||||||
Company D | * | 12 | % | ||||||||||||||||
Company E | * | 11 | % | ||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Suppliers | |||||||||||||||||||
Several of the Company’s component parts are produced by a sole or limited number of suppliers. Shortages could occur in these essential materials due to an interruption of supply or increased demand in the industry. If the Company were unable to procure certain of such materials, it would be required to reduce its operations, which could have a material adverse effect upon its results. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, 28% and 32%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts payable balances were concentrated in a single supplier. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, this and another supplier accounted for 49% and 64%, respectively, of the inventory purchases in each of these years. | |||||||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Income | |||||||||||||||||||
Revenue on sales to customers other than distributors is recognized upon shipment provided that persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, title has transferred, collection of resulting receivables is reasonably assured, there are no customer acceptance requirements, and there are no remaining significant obligations. Revenue on sales to distributors where a right of return exists is recognized upon “sell-through,” when products are shipped from the distributor to the distributor’s customer. Revenue related to those products in the Company’s distribution channel at the end of each reporting period which has not sold-through is deferred. The amount of deferred revenue net of related cost of revenue is classified as deferred income on shipments to distributors on the Company’s balance sheet. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, deferred income on shipments to distributors represented deferred revenues totaling $2,144,546 and $1,804,367, respectively, net of related costs of those revenues of $1,138,489 and $950,208, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company defers revenue and income on advance payments from customers when performance obligations have yet to be completed and/or services performed. Such deferred revenue does not include amounts related to products delivered to distributors which have not sold-through to the distributors’ end customers as described above. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company also earns revenue from its SocketCare services program which provides for extended warranty and accidental breakage coverage for selected products. Service purchased at the time of product purchase provides for coverage in two-year and three-year terms. We additionally offer comprehensive coverage and program term extensions. Revenues from the SocketCare services program are recognized ratably over the life of the extended warranty contract. The amount of unrecognized warranty service revenue is classified as deferred service revenue and presented on the Company’s balance sheet in its short and long term components. The Company also earns revenue from services performed in connection with consulting arrangements. For those contracts that include contract milestones or acceptance criteria the Company recognizes revenue as such milestones are achieved or as such acceptance occurs. In some instances the acceptance criteria in the contract requires acceptance after all services are complete and all other elements have been delivered. Revenue recognition is deferred until those requirements are met. Revenues related to these services in the years presented were not material. | |||||||||||||||||||
Warranty | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company’s products typically carry a one year warranty. The Company reserves for estimated product warranty costs at the time revenue is recognized based upon the Company’s historical warranty experience, and additionally for any known product warranty issues. If actual costs differ from initial estimates, the Company records the difference in the period they are identified. Actual claims are charged against the warranty reserve | |||||||||||||||||||
Research and Development | |||||||||||||||||||
Research and development expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. The major components of research and development costs include salaries and employee benefits, stock-based compensation expense, third party development costs including consultants and outside services, and allocations of overhead and occupancy costs. | |||||||||||||||||||
The accounting for the costs of computer software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed, requires the capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility. Based on the Company’s product development process, technological feasibility is established upon the completion of a working model. Costs incurred by the Company between the completion of the working model and the point at which the product is ready for general release have been insignificant. Accordingly, the Company has charged all such costs to research and development expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. | |||||||||||||||||||
Advertising Costs | |||||||||||||||||||
Advertising costs are charged to sales and marketing as incurred. The Company incurred $217,881 and $332,594, in advertising costs during 2013 and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||||
Income Taxes | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company uses the asset and liability method to account for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company recognizes the tax benefit from uncertain tax positions if it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on examination by the tax authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit is measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. | |||||||||||||||||||

Basic and diluted | $ | (0.13 | ) | $ | (0.68 | ) | |||||||||||||
For the 2013 and 2012 periods presented, the diluted net loss per share is equivalent to the basic net loss per share because the Company experienced losses in these years and thus no potential common shares underlying stock options or warrants, or shares underlying conversion of convertible notes, have been included in the net loss per share calculation as their effect is anti-dilutive. Options and warrants to purchase, and shares issuable for convertible notes and related accrued interest, totaled 3,342,915 and 2,790,800 shares of common stock in 2013 and 2012, respectively, have been omitted from the loss per share calculation. | |||||||||||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation of stock options granted to employees and directors and of employee stock purchase plan shares by estimating the fair value of stock-based awards using the binomial lattice model. The fair value is amortized as compensation expense over the requisite service period of the award on a straight-line basis. The binomial lattice model incorporates calculations for expected volatility, risk-free interest rates, employee exercise patterns and post-vesting employment termination behavior, and these factors affect the estimate of the fair value of the Company's stock option grants. | |||||||||||||||||||
The weighted average assumptions and grant date fair values for options granted are as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||

Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards | |||||||||||||||||||
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), issued authoritative guidance which concludes that, under certain circumstances, unrecognized tax benefits should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. The Company adopted this guidance early, as permitted, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||||
In February 2013, the FASB issued amendments to disclosure requirements for presentation of comprehensive income. The standard requires presentation (either in a single note or parenthetically on the face of the financial statements) of the effect of significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income based on its source and the income statement line items affected by the reclassification. If a component is not required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety, a cross reference to the related footnote for additional information is required. The amendments are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||||
In July 2012, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. This guidance simplifies how entities test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment and permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. This guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. |

NOTE 2 — Related Party Convertible Notes Payable | |
On September 4, 2013, the Company replaced $350,000 of convertible notes plus accrued interest (total of $380,696) originally issued to officers and directors of the Company on August 1, 2012 and maturing on August 1, 2014, with four year convertible notes expiring September 4, 2017. The replacement notes have an interest rate of 8% per annum that compounds quarterly, and contain a holder call provision that becomes effective on September 4, 2014. The replacement notes are convertible into common stock at the option of the holder at $2.44 per share as long as warrants issued on November 19, 2010 are outstanding (expire May 20, 2016), or at $1.25 per share. The original issuance of convertible notes on August 1, 2012 was in the amount of $400,000. The notes are being used for working capital purposes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, $25,000 of the original convertible notes were repaid, $350,000 of the notes were reissued as discussed previously, and $25,000 of the original notes remain outstanding. The remaining original notes accrue interest at 8% per annum, contain a holder call provision, and mature on August 1, 2014. Accrued interest is payable upon redemption. The remaining original notes are convertible into common stock at the option of the holder at $2.44 per share as long as warrants issued on November 19, 2010 are outstanding (expire May 20, 2016), or at $2.00 per share. The convertible notes are secured by all of the assets of the Company and are subordinated to amounts outstanding under the Company’s working capital bank line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank. | |
On September 4, 2013, the Company also replaced $350,000 of convertible notes plus accrued interest (total of $371,929) issued to the Company’s Chairman at various dates in the fourth quarter of 2012 and maturing on August 1, 2014, with four year convertible notes expiring September 4, 2017. The replacement notes are convertible into common stock at the option of the holder at $2.44 per share as long as warrants previously issued on November 19, 2010 are outstanding (expire May 20, 2016), or at the closing market price on the date of note issue of $1.25 per share, have eliminated the holder call provision contained in the original notes, and have an interest rate that compounds quarterly of 18% per annum during the period in which the November 19, 2010 warrants are outstanding, or 12% per annum. Previously on November 5, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the issue of up to $350,000 in convertible subordinated notes to its Chairman to be used for working capital purposes. At various dates beginning November 7, 2012 through December 12, 2012 the Company issued in total $350,000 of such notes to its Chairman. The original notes were identical to the notes issued on August 1, 2012 as described in the preceding paragraph, with the exception of the conversion price of which the weighted average fair market value conversion price was $1.04 per share as long as warrants previously issued on November 19, 2010 were no longer outstanding. The notes are secured by all of the assets of the Company and are subordinated to amounts outstanding under the Company’s working capital bank line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank. | |
The Company determined per ASC 470-50-40-10a, that the fair value of the embedded conversion option in the reissued convertible notes as a result of the change in conversion price and term, increased by more than 10% from the original notes. Therefore, debt extinguishment accounting rules apply. Accordingly, the reissued convertible notes payable were initially recorded at fair value; however, as there was no difference between the reissued amount of the notes and the net carrying amount of the original notes, no gain or loss was recorded. Accrued interest expense at December 31, 2013 related to all convertible subordinated notes outstanding was $34,837. |

NOTE 4 — Bank Financing Arrangements | |
The Company in the two years presented had a credit facility agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “Bank”). The credit facility allowed the Company to borrow up to $2,500,000 based on the level of qualified domestic and international receivables, up to a maximum of $1,500,000 and $1,000,000, respectively. Advances against the domestic line were calculated at 80% of qualified receivables except for receivables from distributors which are calculated at 60%. Advances against the international line were calculated at 90% against qualified hedged receivables and 70% against qualified non-hedged receivables and receivables from distributors. Borrowings under the lines bore an annual interest rate equal to the greater of (i) the Bank’s prime rate plus 1%, or (ii) 5%. The rate in effect has been 5% to date. There was also a collateral handling fee of 0.25% per month of the financed receivable balance outstanding. The applicable interest and fees were calculated based on the full amount of the accounts receivable provided as collateral for the actual amounts borrowed. The effective rate (interest plus all applicable fees) on actual cash advances in 2013 was 13.6% per annum. | |
The credit facility agreement was to expire on October 12, 2013 unless renewed. On October 12, 2013, the Company and the Bank agreed to extend the agreement for an additional three month period ending January 10, 2014, and subsequently further extended the agreement up to February 28, 2014 to facilitate the Company’s transition to a new bank and credit line (see the additional discussion in the paragraph that follows). The agreement could be terminated by the Company or by the Bank at any time. Upon such termination, the Bank would no longer make advances under the credit agreement and outstanding advances would be repaid as receivables are collected. All advances were at the Bank’s discretion and the Bank was not obligated to make advances. In addition, the Company was to maintain a minimum liquidity ratio at all times based on quick assets (unrestricted cash equivalents at the Bank plus net eligible accounts receivable) to outstanding obligations to the Bank of not less than 2.0 to 1.0. The outstanding amounts borrowed under the domestic and international lines at December 31, 2013 were $655,130 and $108,357, respectively, and the full amounts of accounts receivable provided as collateral were $1,078,053, and $153,372, respectively. The outstanding amounts borrowed under the domestic and international lines at December 31, 2012 were $479,647 and $331,039, respectively, and the full amounts of accounts receivable provided as collateral were $777,987, and $464,731, respectively. The total interest expense on the amounts drawn during the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, was $117,551 and $98,861, respectively. Accrued interest related to the amounts outstanding at December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $7,019 and $7,237, respectively. | |
New Bank Line of Credit | |
On January 8, 2014, the Company accepted the terms of a credit facility agreement with Bridge Bank (the “New Bank”). The Silicon Valley Bank agreement was extended to February 28, 2014 to facilitate the transfer of the credit facility to the New Bank. The credit facility was activated and the transfer completed on March 7, 2014. The revolving credit line agreement is for a two year period ending February 27, 2016. Under the terms of the credit facility agreement with the New Bank, the Company may borrow up to $2.5 million, of which up to $1.5 million is based on qualified receivables from domestic customers and up to $1.0 million is based on qualified receivables from international customers. The Company’s total borrowings under the line may not exceed 50% of the sum of cash plus qualified receivables. Advances against the domestic and international lines are calculated at 70% of qualified receivables. Borrowings under the lines bear an annual interest rate equal to the New Bank’s prime rate plus 1.5%. The rate in effect at March 7, 2014 is 4.75% per annum. There is also a collateral handling fee of 0.2% per month of the financed receivable balance outstanding. The applicable interest and fees are calculated based on the actual amounts borrowed. As of March 7, 2014, the effective rate (interest plus all applicable fees) on actual cash advanced is 4.95% per annum. The borrowings under the credit facility are secured by a first priority security interest in the assets of the Company. All advances are at the New Bank’s discretion and the New Bank is not obligated to make advances. The agreement may be terminated by the Company or by the New Bank at any time. |

Under the indemnification provisions of the Company’s customer agreements, the Company routinely agrees to indemnify and defend its customers against infringement of any patent, trademark, copyright, trade secrets, or other intellectual property rights arising from customers’ legal use of the Company’s products or services. The exposure to the Company under these indemnification provisions is generally limited to the total amount paid for the indemnified products. However, certain indemnification provisions potentially expose the Company to losses in excess of the aggregate amount received from the customer. To date, there have been no claims against the Company by its customers pertaining to such indemnification provisions, and no amounts have been recorded. | |||||||
On October 9, 2013, Hudson Bay Master Fund Ltd. filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, alleging that the Company had triggered anti-dilution provisions of its warrant and was entitled to adjustment of the exercise price and the number of shares. The warrant was issued on November 19, 2010 for 500,000 shares at an exercise price of $2.44 per share. On December 28, 2013, the Company agreed to a settlement with Hudson Bay Master Fund Ltd. and the case was dismissed without judgment as to the merits of Hudson Bay Master Fund’s allegations. In the settlement, the Company agreed to amend the warrant to reset the conversion price to $1.25 per share under the anti-dilution provisions of the warrant, and increase the number of common shares issuable upon exercise to 976,000 shares, which retains the total amount of proceeds under the terms of the original warrant. The amended warrant is a continuation of the original warrant under the anti-dilution terms and does not constitute a change in the underlying warrant. The Company also agreed to issue 37,500 shares of common stock to the warrant holder, valued at the reported closing price on December 31, 2013 of $0.76 per share, resulting in an expense of $28,500 in the fourth quarter. The shares of common stock were subsequently issued in January 2014. |

NOTE 7 — Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan | |||||||||||||||
The Company has one Stock Option Plan in effect in the two years presented: the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”). The 2004 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, and performance awards, to employees, directors, and consultants of the Company. Upon ratification of the 2004 Plan by the shareholders in June 2004, shares in the 1995 Plan that had been reserved but not issued, as well as any shares issued that would otherwise return to the 1995 Plan as a result of termination of options or repurchase of shares, were added to the shares reserved for issuance under the 2004 Plan. The Company grants incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options at an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value per share of common stock on the date of grant. The vesting and exercise provisions are determined by the Board of Directors, with a maximum term of ten years. The 2004 Plan expires on April 23, 2024. | |||||||||||||||

The Company has not generated taxable income in any periods in any jurisdiction, foreign or domestic. The Company has maintained a full valuation allowance for all deferred tax assets. | |||||||||
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $28,884,000 which will expire at various dates beginning in 2017 and through 2033, and federal research and development tax credits of approximately $414,000, which will expire at various dates beginning in 2018 and through 2033. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes of approximately $21,612,000, which will expire at various dates in 2013 and through 2033, and state research and development tax credits of approximately $268,000, which can be carried forward indefinitely. During 2013, approximately $1,841,000 of federal net operating loss carryforwards expired unutilized. | |||||||||
Utilization of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards is subject to annual limitations due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar state provisions. The annual limitation will result in the expiration of the net operating loss and credit carryforwards before utilization. The deferred tax assets for the year ended December 31, 2013 reflect estimates of Section 382 limitations. | |||||||||
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits (“UTBs”), excluding interest and penalties, is as follows: | |||||||||

Amount related to lapsing of statute of limitations | — | ||||||||
Ending balance at December 31, 2013 | $ | 682,000 | |||||||
Future changes in the unrecognized tax benefit will have no impact on the effective tax rate due to the existence of the valuation allowance. It is the Company's policy to include interest and penalties related to tax positions as a component of income tax expense. No interest was accrued for the period ended December 31, 2013. The Company estimates that the unrecognized tax benefit will not change significantly within the next twelve months. | |||||||||
The Company files its tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company is not currently under audit in any of its jurisdictions where income tax returns are filed. The tax years 1996 to 2012 remain open to examination by the major domestic taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject, and for the years 2002 to 2009 for the international taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. | |||||||||
On January 2, 2013, the President signed into law The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (“ATRA”). Under prior law, a taxpayer was entitled to a research tax credit for qualifying amounts incurred through December 31, 2011. The ATRA extends the research credit for two years for qualified research expenditures incurred through the end of 2013. The extension of the research credit is retroactive and includes amounts incurred after 2011. The Company estimates the benefit that it will receive as a result of the credit extension will be approximately $24,321. The benefit, which will be subjected to a full valuation allowance, will be recognized in the period of enactment, which was the first quarter of 2013. |

Liquidity and Going Concern | |||||||||||||||||||
During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred net losses of $620,493 and $3,298,082, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $61,122,674. The Company’s cash balance at December 31, 2013 was $606,255. At December 31, 2013, the Company had additional unused borrowing capacity of approximately $103,000 on its bank lines of credit (approximately $93,000 and $10,000, respectively, on the domestic and international credit lines). The Company’s balance sheet at December 31, 2013 has a current ratio (current assets divided by current liabilities) of 0.4 to 1.0, and a working capital deficit of $4,264,694 (current assets less current liabilities). These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. | |||||||||||||||||||
In the last three years the Company has taken actions to reduce its expenses and to align its cost structure with economic conditions. The Company has the ability to further reduce expenses if necessary. Steps taken by the Company to reduce operating losses and achieve profitability include reduction of headcount to manage payroll costs, the introduction of new products, and continued close support of the Company’s distributors and application development partners as they establish their mobile applications in key vertical markets. The Company believes it will be able to further improve its liquidity and secure additional sources of financing by managing its working capital balances, use of its bank lines of credit, and raising additional capital as needed including development funding from development partners and the issuance of additional equity securities. However, there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms, if at all, and any such terms may be dilutive to existing stockholders. The Company’s bank lines of credit may be terminated by the bank or by the Company at any time. If the Company cannot maintain profitability, it will not be able to support its operations from positive cash flows, and would use its existing cash to support operating losses. If the Company is unable to secure the necessary capital for its business, it may need to suspend some or all of its current operations. | |||||||||||||||||||
If the Company can maintain revenue growth and attain ongoing profitability, it anticipates requirements for cash will include funding of higher receivable and inventory balances, and increased expenses, including an increase of costs relating to new employees to support our growth and increases in salaries, benefits, and related support costs for employees. | |||||||||||||||||||
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the Company’s inability to continue as a going concern. | |||||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates | |||||||||||||||||||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||||
Cash Equivalents | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Cash Equivalents | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity date of 90 days or less at date of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents consisted of demand and money market deposits held in accounts within a single bank. | |||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||||||
The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, debt and foreign exchange contracts approximate fair value due to the relatively short period of time to maturity. | |||||||||||||||||||
Derivative Financial Instruments | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Derivative Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company's primary objective for holding derivative financial instruments is to manage foreign currency risks. The Company's derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value and are included in other current assets, other assets, other accrued liabilities or long-term debt depending on the contractual maturity and whether the Company has a gain or loss. The Company's accounting policies for these instruments are based on whether they meet the Company's criteria for designation as hedging transactions, either as cash flow or fair value hedges. A hedge of the exposure to variability in the cash flows of an asset or a liability, or of a forecasted transaction, is referred to as a cash flow hedge. A hedge of the exposure to changes in fair value of an asset or a liability, or of an unrecognized firm commitment, is referred to as a fair value hedge. The criteria for designating a derivative as a hedge include the instrument's effectiveness in risk reduction and, in most cases, a one-to-one matching of the derivative instrument to its underlying transaction. Gains and losses on derivatives that are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes are recognized currently in earnings. The Company regularly enters into forward foreign currency contracts to reduce exposures related to rate changes in certain foreign currencies. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company's forward foreign currency contracts are recorded at fair value at December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013, these derivative instruments were not designated as hedges, and accordingly, changes in the fair value of the forward foreign currency contracts were recorded in earnings. At December 31, 2013 contracts with a notional amount of $171,750 to hedge Euros had a fair value of an immaterial amount based on quotations from financial institutions, and had maturity dates in January 2014. At December 31, 2012 contracts with a notional amount of $264,400 to hedge Euros and $185,185 to hedge Yen had fair values of an immaterial amount for each currency based on quotations from financial institutions, and had maturity dates in January 2013. | |||||||||||||||||||
Foreign Currency | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Foreign Currency | |||||||||||||||||||
The functional currency for the Company is the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rates on the balance sheet dates. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Any translation adjustments resulting from this process are shown separately as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within shareholders’ equity in the balance sheets. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are reported in other income and expense, net, in the statements of income. | |||||||||||||||||||
Accounts Receivable Allowances | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Accounts Receivable Allowances | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company estimates the amount of uncollectible accounts receivable at the end of each reporting period based on the aging of the receivable balance, current and historical customer trends, and communications with its customers. Amounts are written off only after considerable collection efforts have been made and the amounts are determined to be uncollectible. The following describes activity in the allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012: | |||||||||||||||||||

Inventories | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Inventories | |||||||||||||||||||
Inventories consist principally of raw materials and sub-assemblies stated at the lower of standard cost, which approximates actual costs (first-in, first-out method), or market. Market is defined as replacement cost, but not in excess of estimated net realizable value or less than estimated net realizable value less a normal margin. At the end of each reporting period, the Company compares its inventory on hand to its forecasted requirements for the next nine month period and the Company writes-off the cost of any inventory that is surplus, less any amounts that the Company believes it can recover from the disposal of goods that it specifically believes will be saleable past a nine month horizon. The Company’s sales forecasts are based upon historical trends, communications from customers, and marketing data regarding market trends and dynamics. Changes in the amounts recorded for surplus or obsolete inventory are included in cost of revenue. Inventory components at year-end, net of write-downs, are presented in the following table: | |||||||||||||||||||

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method, over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from one to five years. Assets under capital leases are amortized in a manner consistent with the Company’s normal depreciation policy for owned assets, or the remaining lease term as applicable. Depreciation expense in the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, was $221,337 and $264,512, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||||
Goodwill | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Goodwill | |||||||||||||||||||
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually as of September 30th or more frequently when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the Company's single reporting unit more likely than not exceeds its fair value. The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment analysis as of September 30, 2013. The Company used the two-step test as required to assess goodwill for impairment. The first step of the goodwill impairment test consisted of comparing the carrying value of the reporting unit to its fair value. Management estimated the fair value of the Company's reporting unit using various methods and compared the fair value to the carrying amount (net book value) to ascertain if potential goodwill impairment existed. The Company utilized methods that focused on its ability to produce income ("Income Approach") and the Company’s market capitalization ("Market Capitalization Approach"). Key assumptions utilized in the determination of fair value in step one of the test included the following: the Company's market capitalization; revenue and expense forecasts used in the evaluation were based on trends of historical performance and management's estimate of future performance; cash flows utilized in the discounted cash flow analysis were estimated using a weighted average cost of capital determined to be appropriate for the Company. No impairment of goodwill was recorded in the two years ended December 31, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||||
Deferred Rent | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Deferred Rent | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company operates its headquarters under a non-cancelable operating lease. The Company recognizes rent expense under its lease on a straight line basis measured over the term of the lease. The excess of accumulated rental expense measured on a straight lined basis over actual accumulated rent paid is capitalized as a liability on the Company’s balance sheet in its short and long term components. Deferred rent at December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $228,773 and $179,527, respectively, and was classified as long term at each reporting date. | |||||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Credit Risk | |||||||||||||||||||
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company invests its cash in demand and money market deposit accounts in banks. To the extent of the amounts recorded on the balance sheet, cash is concentrated at the Company’s bank to the extent needed to comply with the minimum liquidity ratio of the bank line agreement. To date, the Company has not experienced losses on these investments. The Company’s trade accounts receivables are primarily with distributors and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions but the Company generally requires no collateral. Reserves are maintained for potential credit losses, and such losses have been within management’s expectations. Customers who accounted for at least 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balances at December 31, 2013 and 2012, were as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||

Concentration of Suppliers | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Concentration of Suppliers | |||||||||||||||||||
Several of the Company’s component parts are produced by a sole or limited number of suppliers. Shortages could occur in these essential materials due to an interruption of supply or increased demand in the industry. If the Company were unable to procure certain of such materials, it would be required to reduce its operations, which could have a material adverse effect upon its results. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, 28% and 32%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts payable balances were concentrated in a single supplier. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, this and another supplier accounted for 49% and 64%, respectively, of the inventory purchases in each of these years. | |||||||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Income | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Income | |||||||||||||||||||
Revenue on sales to customers other than distributors is recognized upon shipment provided that persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, title has transferred, collection of resulting receivables is reasonably assured, there are no customer acceptance requirements, and there are no remaining significant obligations. Revenue on sales to distributors where a right of return exists is recognized upon “sell-through,” when products are shipped from the distributor to the distributor’s customer. Revenue related to those products in the Company’s distribution channel at the end of each reporting period which has not sold-through is deferred. The amount of deferred revenue net of related cost of revenue is classified as deferred income on shipments to distributors on the Company’s balance sheet. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, deferred income on shipments to distributors represented deferred revenues totaling $2,144,546 and $1,804,367, respectively, net of related costs of those revenues of $1,138,489 and $950,208, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company defers revenue and income on advance payments from customers when performance obligations have yet to be completed and/or services performed. Such deferred revenue does not include amounts related to products delivered to distributors which have not sold-through to the distributors’ end customers as described above. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company also earns revenue from its SocketCare services program which provides for extended warranty and accidental breakage coverage for selected products. Service purchased at the time of product purchase provides for coverage in two-year and three-year terms. We additionally offer comprehensive coverage and program term extensions. Revenues from the SocketCare services program are recognized ratably over the life of the extended warranty contract. The amount of unrecognized warranty service revenue is classified as deferred service revenue and presented on the Company’s balance sheet in its short and long term components. The Company also earns revenue from services performed in connection with consulting arrangements. For those contracts that include contract milestones or acceptance criteria the Company recognizes revenue as such milestones are achieved or as such acceptance occurs. In some instances the acceptance criteria in the contract requires acceptance after all services are complete and all other elements have been delivered. Revenue recognition is deferred until those requirements are met. Revenues related to these services in the years presented were not material. | |||||||||||||||||||
Warranty | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Warranty | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company’s products typically carry a one year warranty. The Company reserves for estimated product warranty costs at the time revenue is recognized based upon the Company’s historical warranty experience, and additionally for any known product warranty issues. If actual costs differ from initial estimates, the Company records the difference in the period they are identified. Actual claims are charged against the warranty reserve | |||||||||||||||||||
Research and Development | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Research and Development | |||||||||||||||||||
Research and development expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. The major components of research and development costs include salaries and employee benefits, stock-based compensation expense, third party development costs including consultants and outside services, and allocations of overhead and occupancy costs. | |||||||||||||||||||
The accounting for the costs of computer software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed, requires the capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility. Based on the Company’s product development process, technological feasibility is established upon the completion of a working model. Costs incurred by the Company between the completion of the working model and the point at which the product is ready for general release have been insignificant. Accordingly, the Company has charged all such costs to research and development expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. | |||||||||||||||||||
Advertising Costs | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Advertising Costs | |||||||||||||||||||
Advertising costs are charged to sales and marketing as incurred. The Company incurred $217,881 and $332,594, in advertising costs during 2013 and 2012, respectively. | |||||||||||||||||||
Income Taxes | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Income Taxes | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company uses the asset and liability method to account for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company recognizes the tax benefit from uncertain tax positions if it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on examination by the tax authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit is measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. | |||||||||||||||||||

For the 2013 and 2012 periods presented, the diluted net loss per share is equivalent to the basic net loss per share because the Company experienced losses in these years and thus no potential common shares underlying stock options or warrants, or shares underlying conversion of convertible notes, have been included in the net loss per share calculation as their effect is anti-dilutive. Options and warrants to purchase, and shares issuable for convertible notes and related accrued interest, totaled 3,342,915 and 2,790,800 shares of common stock in 2013 and 2012, respectively, have been omitted from the loss per share calculation. | |||||||||||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation | ' | ||||||||||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation of stock options granted to employees and directors and of employee stock purchase plan shares by estimating the fair value of stock-based awards using the binomial lattice model. The fair value is amortized as compensation expense over the requisite service period of the award on a straight-line basis. The binomial lattice model incorporates calculations for expected volatility, risk-free interest rates, employee exercise patterns and post-vesting employment termination behavior, and these factors affect the estimate of the fair value of the Company's stock option grants. | |||||||||||||||||||
The weighted average assumptions and grant date fair values for options granted are as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||

Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards | |||||||||||||||||||
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), issued authoritative guidance which concludes that, under certain circumstances, unrecognized tax benefits should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. The Company adopted this guidance early, as permitted, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||||
In March 2013, the FASB issued amendments to address the accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a non-profit activity or a business within a foreign entity. The amendments are effective prospectively for fiscal years (and interim reporting periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2013 (early adoption is permitted). The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. | |||||||||||||||||||
In February 2013, the FASB issued amendments to disclosure requirements for presentation of comprehensive income. The standard requires presentation (either in a single note or parenthetically on the face of the financial statements) of the effect of significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income based on its source and the income statement line items affected by the reclassification. If a component is not required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety, a cross reference to the related footnote for additional information is required. The amendments are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||||
In July 2012, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. This guidance simplifies how entities test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment and permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. This guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. |
