Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), the Company records revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for goods or services promised to its customers. Under ASC 606, the Company follows a five-step model to: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price for the contract; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue using one of the following two methods:

Over time

 

The Company designs, manufactures and sells custom chemical vapor deposition equipment through contractual agreements. These system sales require the Company to deliver functioning equipment that is generally completed within two to eighteen months from commencement of order acceptance. For systems sales that meet the criteria to recognize revenue over time, the Company recognizes revenue over time by using an input method based on costs incurred as it depicts the Company’s progress toward satisfaction of the performance obligation. For system sales that do not meet the criteria to recognize revenue over time based on the contract provisions, the Company recognizes revenue based on point in time.

 

Under the over time method, revenue arising from fixed price contracts is recognized as work is performed based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligations. Incurred costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs. Contract material costs are included in incurred costs when the project materials have been purchased or moved to work in process, and installed, as required by the project’s engineering design. Cost based input methods of revenue recognition require the Company to make estimates of costs to complete the projects. In making such estimates, significant judgment is required to evaluate assumptions related to the costs to complete the projects, including materials, labor and other system costs. If the estimated total costs on any contract are greater than the net contract revenues, the Company recognizes the entire estimated loss in the period the loss becomes known and can be reasonably estimated. There were no impairment losses recognized on contract assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

 

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and collections results in accounts receivables, unbilled receivables or contract assets and contract liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Under typical payment terms for our contracts accounted for over time, amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals or upon achievement of contractual milestones.

 

Under ASC 606, payments received from customers in excess of revenue recognized to date results in a contract liability. These contract liabilities are not considered to represent a significant financing component of the contract because we believe these cash advances and deposits are generally used to meet working capital demands which can be higher in the earlier stages of a contract. Also, advanced payments and deposits provide us with some measure of assurance that the customer will perform on its obligations under the contract.

 

Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from system sales under contracts and represent revenue recognized that exceeds the amount billed to the customer.

 

Contract liabilities include advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized. The Company typically receives down payments upon receipt of orders and progress payments as the system is manufactured.

 

Contract assets and contract liabilities are classified as current as these contracts in progress are expected to be substantially completed within the next twelve months.

 

Point in time

 

For non-system sales of products and services, revenue is recognized at the point in time when control of the promised products or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services (the transaction price). A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer and is the unit of account under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”.

 

 

NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

For any system equipment sales where the equipment would have an alternative use or where the contract provisions of the contract preclude the use of over time revenue recognition, revenue is recognized at the point in time when control of the equipment is transferred to the customer. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, all system equipment sales were recorded over time by using an input method except for one contract that was entered into during 2024 and was not recognized as revenue using over time revenue recognition until July 2025 when a contract modification was entered into with the customer to change certain contract provisions.

 

Inventories

Inventories

 

Inventories (raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods) are valued at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Work-in-process and finished goods inventory reflect all accumulated production costs, which are comprised of direct production costs and overhead, and is reduced by amounts recorded in cost of sales as the related revenue is recognized. Indirect costs relating to long-term contracts, which include expenses such as general and administrative, are charged to expense as incurred and are not included in our cost of sales or work-in-process and finished goods inventory.

 

Obsolete inventory or inventory in excess of management’s estimated usage requirement is written down to its estimated net realizable value if less than cost. The Company evaluates usage requirements by analyzing historical usage, anticipated demand, alternative uses of materials and other qualitative factors. Unanticipated changes in demand for the Company’s products may require a write down of inventory, which would be reflected in cost of sales in the period the revision is made.

 

Product Warranty

Product Warranty

 

The Company typically provides standard warranty coverage on its systems for one year from the date of final acceptance or fifteen months from the date of shipment by providing labor and parts necessary to repair the systems during the warranty period. The Company records the estimated warranty cost when revenue is recognized on the related system. Warranty cost is included in “Cost of revenue” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The estimated warranty cost is based on the Company’s historical cost. The Company updates its warranty estimates based on actual costs incurred.

 

Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations

Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations

 

Assets and related liabilities of a qualifying business are classified as held for sale when the following conditions are met: (i) management has committed to a plan to sell the net assets, (ii) the net assets are available for immediate sale, (iii) there is an active program to locate a buyer, (iv) the sale and transfer of the net assets is probable within one year, (v) the net assets are being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to the current fair value, and (vi) it is unlikely that significant changes will be made to the plan to sell the net assets. Assets and related liabilities which have been classified as held for sale are excluded from the net assets and liabilities of continuing operations in the period in which the held for sale criteria was met. A component of a business is classified as a discontinued operation when its disposal represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on our operations and financial results. The results of discontinued operations are reported in income/loss from discontinued operations, net of tax on the consolidated statements of operations for all current and prior periods presented. The results of discontinued operations include direct costs attributable to the divested business and any gain or loss recognized in connection with the sale, or adjustment of the carrying amount to fair value less cost to sell while being held for sale, and excludes any indirect cost allocation associated with any shared-service or corporate functions not solely dedicated to the divested business. Adjustments to discontinued operations subsequent to the completion of a transaction or disposition are generally attributable to contingencies and indemnifications directly related to the disposal transaction, operations of the discontinued operations, or settlement of obligations directly related to the disposal.

 

 

NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Assets and liabilities of discontinued operations, including those that meet the held-for-sale criteria, are presented separately in the consolidated balance sheets. Upon classification as held for sale, assets are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, and depreciation and amortization cease. Any impairment losses or subsequent measurement adjustments are recognized in the results of discontinued operations in the period in which they are identified. Cash flows attributable to discontinued operations are presented separately in the consolidated statements of cash flows, or otherwise disclosed, for all periods presented.

 

Recent Accounting Standards

Recent Accounting Standards

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statements Expenses (Subtopic 220-40),” to improve income statement expenses disclosure. The standard requires more detailed information related to the types of expenses, including (among other items) the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization included within each interim and annual income statement’s expense caption, as applicable. This authoritative guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively and will be effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company believes there is no additional new accounting guidance adopted, but not yet effective, which is relevant to the readers of our financial statements. However, there are numerous new proposals under development which, if and when enacted, may have a significant impact on our financial reporting.
