RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

On January 5, 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments–Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Changes to the current GAAP model primarily affects the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the FASB clarified guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The classification and measurement guidance will be effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating how the adoption of this standard will impact its consolidated financial statements. 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02” Topic 842). The core change with ASU 2016-02 is the requirement for the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” or ASU 2016-09, which amends ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2016, and interim periods within those years and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating how the adoption of this standard will impact its consolidated financial statements.

On June 16, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13”). This ASU modifies the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which will result in the more timely recognition of losses. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for us as of January 1, 2020. The Company is currently reviewing the effect of ASU 2016-13.

On August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230 “ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 amends ASC 230 to add or clarify guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The updated guidance requires a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-15 on its statements of consolidated operations and cash flows.

Reclassifications - Certain prior period balances have been reclassified in order to conform to current period presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported results of operations or loss per share.

Revenue and Cost of Goods Sold Recognition - Generally, for the staffing business, revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (3) the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.

Due to the short term nature of the Company’s construction contracts, revenue is recognized once 100% of a contract segment is completed. A contract may have many segments, of which, once a segment is completed, the revenue for the segment is recognized when no further significant performance obligations exists. The Company’s construction contracts or segments of contracts typically range from several days to two to four months. Contract costs may be billed as incurred. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools and repairs. Selling, general and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. The Company begins recognizing revenue on a project as project costs are incurred and revenue recognition criteria are met. As expenses are incurred on a project but the invoicing criteria are not met, but the work has been accepted by the customer, revenue is recognized in that period and recognized in accounts receivable as unbilled revenue. Such amount approximated $5 million and $1 million at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Provisions for losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period such losses are known. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions, changes in raw material costs, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to revenue, costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.

Concentration of Credit Risk - Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash at one financial institution that management believes is a high-credit, high-quality financial institution and accordingly, subject to minimal credit risk. Deposits held with these financial institutions may be in excess of the amount of insured limits provided on such deposits, if any. The Company is subject to risk of nonpayment of its trade accounts receivable.

The Company’s customer base is highly concentrated. As of December 31, 2015, the Company’s three largest customers, Customer E, Customer H and Customer B, represented 47%, 14%, and 10% of accounts receivable, respectively. As of September 30, 2016, the Company’s four largest customers, innovative communications service providers, Customer M, Customer E, Customer N and Customer J represented 34%, 13%, 12%, and 11% of accounts receivable, respectively.

Revenue may significantly decline if the Company were to lose one or more of its significant customers. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, Customer E represented approximately 51% and 47% of revenues respectively, and customer B represented approximately 8% and 23% respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 the Company generated revenue by four major customers, Customer M, represented approximately 49% and 33% of revenues respectively Customer J, represented approximately 8% and 19% of revenues respectively, Customer N, represented approximately 16% and 13% of revenues respectively, and Customer L representing 6% and 10% of revenues, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) standard related to fair value measurement at inception. The standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. The standard applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and, accordingly, does not require any new fair value measurements. The standard clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The recorded values of long-term debt approximate their fair values, as interest approximates market rates. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the standard established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid expenses, leasehold improvements, property and equipment, deposits, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, deferred revenue, capital leases, equity-linked warrants, and notes payable. The recorded values of cash, accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable approximate fair values due to the short maturities of such instruments. Recorded values for notes payable and related liabilities approximate fair values, since their amortization of deferred financing cost stated or imputed interest rates are commensurate with prevailing market rates for similar obligations.
