BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TechPrecision, Ranor, Stadco, and Westminster Credit Holdings, LLC. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements | Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements - In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or “U.S. GAAP”, management is required 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 consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, long-lived assets, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical and current experiences and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Reclassifications | Reclassifications – Certain prior year balances including the notes thereto have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation. In the prior year, reimbursements for purchases of fixed assets totaled $577 and was included in the statements of cash flows from operating activities as a change in other noncurrent liabilities. In order to conform to the current year presentation, prior year reimbursements for purchases of fixed assets and changes in other noncurrent liabilities in our consolidated statements of cash flows have been adjusted to conform with the current year presentation. |

Going Concern, Risks and Uncertainties | Going Concern, Risks and Uncertainties - For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we reported pre-tax losses of $2,750 and $5,110, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, we had $1,451 in total available liquidity, consisting of $195 in cash and cash equivalents, and $1,256 in undrawn capacity under our revolver loan. As of March 31, 2024, we had $600 in total available liquidity, consisting of $138 in cash and cash equivalents, and $462 in undrawn capacity under our revolver loan. On May 28, 2024, Ranor, and certain affiliates of the Company, or “other borrowers”, entered into the Eighth Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan Agreement and Fourth Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note, or the “Eighth Amendment”. In addition to extending the maturity date of the revolver loan to August 30, 2024, the Eighth Amendment reduced the maximum principal amount from $5,000 to $4,500 and required that an operational assessment be performed, primarily at Stadco, by an acceptable third-party consultant. The lender has acknowledged receipt of that operational assessment of Stadco as required pursuant to the Eighth Amendment. On September 4, 2024, December 19, 2024, and April 28, 2025, Ranor and the other borrowers entered into three additional amendments with Berkshire Bank, to extend the maturity date of the Revolver Loan to January 15, 2025, April 30, 2025, and August 29, 2025, respectively. The Company acknowledges that a certain event of default has occurred and is continuing under the Loan Agreement as a result of the Company’s failure to satisfy the Debt Service Coverage Ratio, or DSCR, for the twelve-month periods ending March 31, 2025 and 2024. The lender reserves any and all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, its right to choose to accelerate and demand the outstanding indebtedness evidenced by the loan documents, and to seek immediate repayment in full. There was $7,387 outstanding under the Loan Agreement on March 31, 2025. Without a waiver, the lender has the right, but not the obligation, to demand repayment from the Company for noncompliance with the debt covenants. In addition, the bank retains the right to act on covenant violations that occur after the date of delivery of any waiver. The lender has not granted us a waiver. As such, we need to seek alternative financing to pay these obligations as the Company does not have existing facilities or sufficient cash on hand to satisfy these obligations. It is also probable that the Company will not be in compliance with the same debt covenants at subsequent measurement dates within the next twelve months. As a result of the above, all of our long-term debt has been classified as current in our consolidated balance sheet. The Company is exploring various means of strengthening its liquidity position and ensuring compliance with its debt financing covenants by making Stadco operations profitable, renewing our revolver loan, or entering into alternative debt facilities. On July 3, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company sold 521,800 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 521,800 common stock purchase warrants to purchase 521,800 shares of Common Stock in a private placement at an aggregate purchase price of $1,801. The combined purchase price for one share and one warrant was $3.45. The purpose of the private placement was to raise working capital for use by the Company. The closing of the offering occurred on July 8, 2024. On February 11, 2025, the Company received $498 in proceeds from the sale of the remaining 144,300 shares of the Company’s common stock, and common stock purchase warrants to purchase shares of common stock. Placement fees in connection with the offering totaled $247 and are recorded net of proceeds in additional paid - in capital. In addition, the Company issued to the placement agent common stock purchase warrants to purchase up to 19,983 shares of common stock. In order for us to continue operations beyond the next twelve months from the date of issuance of the financial statements and to be able to discharge our liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business, we must renew our revolver loan or seek alternative financing by August 29, 2025. The bank retains the right to act on covenant violations and is under no obligation to allow draws on the revolver through the expiration date. We must mitigate our recurring operating losses at our Stadco subsidiary, efficiently increase utilization of our manufacturing capacity at Stadco and improve the manufacturing process. We plan to closely monitor our expenses and, if required, will reduce operating costs to enhance liquidity. The uncertainty associated with the recurring operating losses at Stadco, the revolver loan renewal, the need for alternative financing, and compliance with debt covenants at subsequent measurement dates raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for at least one-year after the date the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are issued. The consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, were prepared on the basis of a going concern which contemplates that we will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, they do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should we be required to liquidate assets. Our ability to satisfy our current liabilities and to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s compliance with the debt covenants, renewing the revolver loan, and its ability to grow revenue and reduce costs at Stadco. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. |

Cash and cash equivalents | Cash and cash equivalents - Holdings of highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, are considered to be cash equivalents. Our deposit and money market accounts are maintained in a large U.S. regional bank. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Accounts receivable and allowance for credit losses | Accounts receivable and allowance for credit losses - Accounts receivable are comprised of amounts billed and currently due from customers. Accounts receivables are amounts related to any unconditional right the Company has for receiving consideration and are presented as accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets. We maintain allowances for credit losses for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make the required payments. Under the current expected credit loss model, we employ a roll-rate methodology, utilizing historical loss rates and historical trends in credit quality indicators (e.g., delinquency, risk ratings), adjusted to reflect current economic conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. Management considers the following factors when determining the collectability of specific customer accounts: customer creditworthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current industry trends, and changes in customer payment terms. Our normal collection cycle ranges between thirty and forty days. Estimated uncollectible amounts are charged to earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance. Balances which remain outstanding after reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. Historically, the level of uncollectible accounts has not been significant.

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Inventories | Inventories - Work-in-process and raw materials are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Contract Assets | Contract Assets - Contract assets represent the Company’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed as of the reporting date when the right to payment is not just subject to the passage of time. The amount of contract assets recorded in the consolidated balance sheet reflects revenue recognized on contracts less associated advances and progress billings. These amounts are billed in accordance with the agreed-upon contract terms or upon achievement of contract milestones and recorded at net realizable value. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Property, plant and equipment, net | Property, plant and equipment, net - Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are accounted for on the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives. The amortization of leasehold improvements is based on the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the improvement. Betterments and large renewals, which extend the life of the asset, are capitalized whereas maintenance and repairs and small renewals are expensed as incurred. The estimated useful lives are machinery and equipment, 5-15 years; buildings, 30 years; and leasehold improvements, 2-5 years. Upon sale or retirement of machinery and equipment, costs and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated, and gains or losses are recognized in the statement of operations. Interest is capitalized for assets that are constructed or otherwise produced for our own use, including assets constructed or produced for us by others for which deposits or progress payments have been made. Interest is capitalized to the date the assets are available and ready for use. When an asset is constructed in stages, interest is capitalized for each stage until it is available and ready for use. We use the interest rate incurred on funds borrowed specifically for the project. The capitalized interest is recorded as part of the asset to which it relates and is amortized over the asset’s estimated useful life. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or “ASC”, 360, Property, Plant & Equipment, our property, plant and equipment is tested for impairment when triggering events occur and, if impaired, written down to fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised values. The carrying amount of an asset or asset group is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset or asset group. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, we determined that a history of operating losses at Stadco may indicate that the carrying value of the long-lived assets may not be recoverable. As such, we conducted a test for recoverability of long-lived assets at our Stadco segment and determined that the carrying value of the long-lived assets were not impaired. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Leases | Leases - Right-of-use assets for operating leases are measured at the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets for operating leases are subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the carrying amount of the lease liability, plus initial direct costs, plus (minus) any prepaid (accrued) lease payments, less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Operating lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the lease commencement date. We had one finance lease outstanding as of March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. See Note 14, Leases, for additional information. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Debt Issuance Costs | Debt Issuance Costs - Costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing for long-term debt are capitalized and presented as a reduction of the carrying amount of the related debt. Costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing for revolving credit facilities and lines of credit are capitalized and presented as reduction of the carrying amount of the revolver loan. Loan acquisition costs are being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the loan. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Contract Liabilities | Contract Liabilities - Contract liabilities are comprised of advance payments, billings in excess of revenues and deferred revenue amounts. These amounts are recorded as contract liabilities until such obligations are satisfied, either over time as costs are incurred or at a point in time when deliveries are made. Such advances are not generally considered a significant financing component because they are utilized to pay for contract costs within a one-year period. Contract liability amounts are recognized as revenue once control over the underlying performance obligation has transferred to the customer. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements - We account for fair value of financial instruments in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, which defines fair value and establishes a framework to measure fair value and the related disclosures about fair value measurements. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that could be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets are marked to bid prices and financial liabilities are marked to offer prices. Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs. The Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, establishes a fair value hierarchy used to prioritize the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined into the following three categories: Level 1: Inputs based upon quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date; Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; and Level 3: Inputs that are management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the instruments’ valuation. In addition, we will measure fair value in an inactive or dislocated market based on facts and circumstances and significant management judgment. We will use inputs based on management estimates or assumptions or adjust observable inputs to determine fair value when markets are not active and relevant observable inputs are not available. ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, as presented in the balance sheet, approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of short and long-term borrowings approximates their fair value. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition - The Company accounts for revenue under Accounting Standards Update, or “ASU”, 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), or “ASC 606”, and related amendments. ASC 606 sets forth five steps for revenue recognition: identification of the contract, identification of any separate performance obligations in the contracts, determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to separate performance obligations, and revenue recognition when performance obligations are satisfied. The Company recognizes revenue over time based on the transfer of control of the promised goods or services to the customer. This transfer occurs over time when the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, and our performance does not create an asset that has an alternative use to the Company. Otherwise, control to the promised goods or services transfers to customers at a point in time. Our customers make advance payments and progress payments under the terms of each manufacturing contract. The majority of the Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation and provide title to, or grant a security interest in, work-in-process to the customer. In addition, these contracts contain enforceable rights to payment, allowing the Company to recover both its cost and a reasonable margin on performance completed to date. The combination of these factors indicates that the customer controls the asset, and revenue is recognized as the asset is created or enhanced. The Company measures progress for performance obligations satisfied over time using input methods (e.g., costs incurred, resources consumed, labor hours expended, and time elapsed). Under arrangements where the customer does not have title to, or a security interest in, the work-in-process, our evaluation of whether revenue should be recognized over time requires significant judgment about whether the asset has an alternative use and whether the entity has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. When one or both of these factors is not present, the Company will recognize revenue at the point in time where control over the promised good or service transfers to the customer, i.e. when the customer has taken physical possession of the product the Company has built for the customer. The Company and its customers may occasionally enter into contract modifications, including change orders. The Company may account for the modification as a separate contract, the termination of an old contract and creation of a new contract, or as part of the original contract, depending on the nature and pricing of the goods or services included in the modification. In general, contract modifications - as well as other changes in estimates of revenue, costs, and profits on a performance obligation - are recognized using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting. This method recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes in current and prior periods. A significant change in an estimate on one or more contracts in a period could have a material effect on the consolidated balance sheet or results of operations for that period. If incentives and other contingencies are provided as part of the contract, the Company will include in the initial transaction price the consideration to which it expects to be entitled under the terms and conditions of the contract, generally estimated using an expected value or most likely amount approach. In the context of variable consideration, the Company limits, or constrains, the transaction price to amounts for which the Company believes a significant reversal of revenue is not probable. Adjustments to constrain the transaction price may be due to a portion of the transaction price being more than approved funding, a lack of history with the customer, a lack of history with the goods or services being provided, or other items. Shipping and handling fees and costs incurred in connection with products sold are recorded in cost of revenue in the consolidated statements of operations and are not considered a performance obligation to our customers. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Contract Estimates | Contract Estimates - In estimating contract costs, the Company takes into consideration a number of assumptions and estimates regarding risks related to technical requirements and scheduling. Management performs periodic reviews of the contracts to evaluate the underlying risks. Profit margin on any given project could increase if the Company is able to mitigate and retire such risks. Conversely, if the Company is not able to properly manage these risks, cost estimates may increase, resulting in a lower profit margin, or potentially, contract losses. The cost estimation process requires significant judgment and is based upon the professional knowledge and experience of the Company’s engineers, program managers, and financial professionals. Factors considered in estimating the work to be completed and ultimate contract recovery include the availability, productivity, and cost of labor, the nature and complexity of the work to be performed, the effect of change orders, the availability of materials, the effect of any delays in performance, the availability and timing of funding from the customer, and the recoverability of any claims included in the estimates to complete. Costs allocable to undelivered units are reported as work in process, a component of inventory, in the consolidated balance sheet. Pre-contract fulfillment costs requiring capitalization are not material. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Selling, general and administrative | Selling, general and administrative - Selling, general and administrative, or “SG&A”, expenses include items such as executive compensation and benefits, professional fees, business travel and office costs. Advertising costs are nominal and expensed as incurred. Other general and administrative expenses include items for our administrative functions and include costs for items such as office supplies, insurance, legal, accounting, telephone, and other outside services. SG&A consisted of the following for the fiscal years ended March 31:
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Stock-based Compensation | Stock-based Compensation - Stock-based compensation represents the cost related to stock-based awards granted to our board of directors, employees, and consultants. We measure stock-based compensation cost at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award and recognize the cost as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. We estimate the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes valuation model. Stock-based compensation included in selling, general and administrative expense amounted to $103 and $285 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. See Note 7 – Stock-based Compensation for additional disclosures related to stock-based compensation. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Net Loss per Share of Common Stock | Net Loss per Share of Common Stock - Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss income per common share is calculated using net loss divided by diluted weighted-average shares. Diluted weighted-average shares include weighted-average shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of stock options calculated using the treasury stock method. See Note 6 – Capital Stock and Earnings per Share, for additional disclosures related to net loss per share. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Income Taxes | Income Taxes - In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred 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 and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences and carryforwards are expected to be recovered or settled. 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. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. We recognize the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not to be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to income tax liabilities in selling, general and administrative in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. |
