NOTE 1 - FINANCIAL STATEMENT PREPARATION

Data I/O Corporation (“Data I/O”, “We”, “Our”, “Us”) prepared the financial statements as of ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and ~~June~~September 30, 2019 according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). These statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary to present fairly the results for the periods presented. The balance sheet at December 31, 2019 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America according to such SEC rules and regulations. Operating results for the ~~six~~three and nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements and the accompanying notes included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

After a weak first half of 2020, business started to recover from COVID-19 related country and customer business shutdowns. In response to suddenly changing business conditions, we had scaled back planned investments and reduced our current spending. Despite the spending reductions, we continue to invest with a long-term focus towards expanding our markets and creating unique value for our customers. This is true for both our traditional core business as well as the emerging security deployment business. During Q3, we continued this course of response and actions. Our facilities and operations in the different countries adapted to the local conditions and restrictions. We have, and are, taking advantage of government programs to assist during the pandemic to the extent we are qualified to participate. We have adapted to COVID by embracing virtual and remote operations for our employees, sales, and service and avoid travel and non-social distanced interactions.

Topic 606 provides a single, principles-based five-step model to be applied to all contracts with customers. It generally provides for the recognition of revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled, net of allowances for estimated returns, discounts or sales incentives, as well as taxes collected from customers when control over the promised goods or services are transferred to the customer.

We ~~have elected the practical expedient to~~ expense contract acquisition costs, primarily sales commissions, for contracts with terms of one year or less and will capitalize and amortize incremental costs with terms that exceed one year. During 2020 and 2019, the impact of capitalization of incremental costs for obtaining contracts was immaterial. We ~~have made a sales tax policy election to~~ exclude sales, use, value added, some excise taxes and other similar taxes from the measurement of the transaction price.

We recognize revenue upon transfer of control of the promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services. We have determined that our programming equipment has reached a point of maturity and stability such that product acceptance can be assured by testing at the factory prior to shipment and that the installation meets the criteria to be a separate performance obligation. These systems are standard products with published product specifications and are configurable with standard options. The evidence that these systems could be deemed as accepted was based upon having standardized factory production of the units, results from batteries of tests of product performance to our published specifications, quality inspections and installation standardization, as well as past product operation validation with the customer and the history provided by our installed base of products upon which the current versions were based.

The revenue related to products requiring installation that is perfunctory is recognized upon transfer of control of the product to customers, which generally is at the time of shipment. Installation that is considered perfunctory includes any installation that is expected to be performed by other parties, such as distributors, other vendors, or the customers themselves. This considers the complexity, skill and training needed as well as customer expectations regarding installation.

We enter into arrangements with multiple performance obligations that arise during the sale of a system that includes an installation component, a service and support component and a software maintenance component. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on relative standalone sales price. We allocate the transaction price of each element based on relative selling prices. Relative selling price is based on the selling price of the standalone system. For the installation and service and support performance obligations, we use the value of the discount given to distributors who perform these components. For software maintenance performance obligations, we use what we charge for annual software maintenance renewals after the initial year the system is sold. Revenue is recognized on the system sale based on shipping terms, installation revenue is recognized after the installation is performed, and hardware service and support and software maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, typically one year. Deferred revenue includes service, support and maintenance contracts and represents the undelivered performance obligation of agreements that are typically for one year.

When we sell software separately, we recognize revenue upon the transfer of control of the software, which is generally upon shipment, provided that only inconsequential performance obligations remain on our part and substantive acceptance conditions, if any, have been met.

We recognize revenue when there is an approved contract that both parties are committed to perform, both parties’ rights have been identified, the contract has substance, collection of substantially all the consideration is probable, the transaction price has been determined and allocated over the performance obligations, the performance obligations including substantive acceptance conditions, if any, in the contract have been met, the obligation is not contingent on resale of the product, the buyer’s obligation would not be changed in the event of theft, physical destruction or damage to the product, the buyer acquiring the product for resale has economic substance apart from us and we do not have significant obligations for future performance to directly bring about the resale of the product by the buyer. We establish a reserve for sales returns based on historical trends in product returns and estimates for new items. Payment terms are generally 30 days from shipment.

We transfer certain products out of service from their internal use and make them available for sale. The products transferred are typically our standard products in one of the following areas: service loaners, rental or test units; engineering test units; or sales demonstration equipment. Once transferred, the equipment is sold by our regular sales channels as used equipment inventory. These product units often involve refurbishing and an equipment warranty, and are conducted as sales in our normal and ordinary course of business. The transfer amount is the product unit’s net book value and the sale transaction is accounted for as revenue and cost of goods sold.

The following table represents our revenues by major categories:

Share-Based Compensation

Income taxes are computed at current enacted tax rates, less tax credits using the asset and liability method. Deferred taxes are adjusted both for items that do not have tax consequences and for the cumulative effect of any changes in tax rates from those previously used to determine deferred tax assets or liabilities. Tax provisions include amounts that are currently payable, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities that arise because of temporary differences between the timing of when items of income and expense are recognized for financial reporting and income tax purposes, and any changes in the valuation allowance caused by a change in judgment about the realization of the related deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized. The CARES Act, enacted in Q1 2020, accelerated the AMT credit refund of $640,000 to be a current asset instead of non-current.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2020, the weighted average remaining lease term is ~~3.08~~2.84 years and the weighted average discount rate used is 5%.

The components of our lease expense for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 include operating lease costs ~~of $164,000~~were $168,000 and ~~$326,000,~~$494,000, respectively, and short-term lease costs of ~~$8,000~~$9,000 and ~~$16,000,~~$26,000, respectively.

The components of our lease expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 include operating lease costs were $213,000 and $486,000, respectively, and short-term lease costs of $5,000 and $15,000, respectively.

Our real estate facility leases are described below:

During the third quarter of 2017, we amended our lease agreement, extending the lease for the Redmond, Washington headquarters facility through July 31, 2022. This lease is for approximately 20,460 square feet.

We signed a lease agreement effective November 1, 2015 that extends the lease for a facility located in Shanghai, China through October 31, 2021. This lease is for approximately 19,400 square feet.

During the fourth quarter of 2016, we signed a lease agreement for a new facility located near Munich, Germany which was effective March 1, 2017 and extends the lease through February 28, 2022. This lease is for approximately 4,895 square feet.

NOTE 6 – OTHER COMMITMENTS

We have purchase obligations for inventory and production costs as well as other obligations such as capital expenditures, service contracts, marketing, and development agreements. Arrangements are considered purchase obligations if a contract specifies all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased, a pricing structure and approximate timing of the transaction. Most arrangements are cancelable without a significant penalty, and with short notice, typically less than 90 days. At ~~June~~September 30, 2020, the purchase commitments and other obligations totaled $1.2 million of which all but ~~$228,000~~$230,000 are expected to be paid over the next twelve months.

NOTE 7 – CONTINGENCIES

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, we were not a party to any legal proceedings or aware of any indemnification agreement claims, the adverse outcome of which in management’s opinion, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

NOTE 8 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated based on these same weighted average shares outstanding plus the effect of potential shares issuable upon assumed exercise of stock options based on the treasury stock method.

Potential shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share to the extent their effect would be anti-dilutive.

OVERVIEW

After a weak first ~~quarter~~half of 2020, business ~~continued~~started to ~~be negatively impacted by~~recover from COVID-19 related country and customer business shutdowns. In response to suddenly changing business conditions, we had scaled back planned investments and reduced our current spending. Despite the spending reductions, ~~during Q1,~~ we ~~continued~~continue to invest with a long-term focus towards expanding our markets and creating unique value for our customers. This is true for both our traditional core business as well as the emerging security deployment business. During ~~Q2,~~Q3, we continued this course of response and actions. Our facilities and operations in the different countries adapted to the local conditions and restrictions. We have and are taking advantage of government programs to assist during the pandemic to the extent we are qualified to participate. We have adapted to embrace virtual and remote operations for our employees, sales, and service and avoid travel and non-social distanced interactions.

Our short-term challenge continues to be operating in a cyclical, COVID-19 impacted, and rapidly evolving industry environment. During the first three quarters of 2020, Q2 was the business level bottom for our automotive electronics business, which improved in Q3. We must balance industry changes, industry partnerships, new technologies, business geography shifts, travel and customer restrictions, customer shut downs, exchange rate volatility, trade issues and tariffs, coronavirus impacts, increasing costs and strategic investments in our business with the level of demand and mix of business we expect. We continue to manage our costs carefully and execute strategies for cash preservation, protecting our employee base and cost reductions. ~~We are classified as an essential business under local standards and as such, are allowed to operate.~~ Many of our employees worked remotely from home, with the essential production and process workers onsite as part of our essential operations. We have implemented policies and procedures in our offices and production facilities to keep our essential workers safe, while at the same time protecting our production capacity. We have and are taking advantage of government programs in various countries to assist during the pandemic, to the extent we are qualified to participate, including foreign work reduction programs, foreign payroll benefit programs, and USA payroll tax deferrals. While we were approved, we have not, and do not expect, to accept funding from the SBA PPP program in the USA.

We are focusing our research and development efforts in our strategic growth markets, namely automotive electronics and IoT new programming technologies, secure supply chain solutions, automated programming systems and their enhancements for the manufacturing environment and software. We are continuing to develop technology to securely provision new categories of semiconductors, including Secure Elements, Authentication Chips, and Secure Microcontrollers. In Q3, we released updated SentriX hardware and tools which simplify the customer acquisition process, and reduce dependency on third party suppliers. We also upgraded SentriX systems in the field to this new architecture. We plan to deliver new programming technology and automated handling systems for managed and secure programming in the manufacturing environment. We continue to focus on extending the capabilities and support for our product lines and supporting the latest semiconductor devices, including various configurations of NAND Flash, e-MMC, UFS and microcontrollers on our newer products.

Our customer focus has been on global and strategic high-volume manufacturers in key market segments like automotive electronics, IoT, industrial controls and consumer electronics, as well as programming centers.

Although the long-term prospects for our strategic growth markets should be good, these markets and our business have been, and are likely to continue to be, adversely impacted by the global pandemic of novel coronavirus or COVID-19.

As a global company with 92% of our 2019 sales in international markets, we have been and expect to continue to be significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, which started to impact us first in China and has since spread to Asia, USA, Europe and all other markets we serve. During Q2Q3 we have seen that our China operations have resumed onsite quasi-normal activities. Automotive facilities that had largely shut down ~~began reopening mid~~in Q2 were operating and ramping to ~~late Q2.~~more normal production. Our European operations ~~are opening~~opened up for travel and limited customer site ~~visits.~~visits for technical support. Our Americas operations continue to be relatively restricted as local areas begin opening but international travel is very restricted or generally banned. Although our facilities in Shanghai, Redmond and Germany are currently ~~open and~~ operating in pandemic related restricted ways, we believe that our classification as essential by certain U.S. customer groups has and will continue to keep operations open. We source other components from China and other countries that are used to manufacture our equipment in China and in our Redmond, Washington facility and these components may not be readily available or subject to unpredictable delays. Many of our employees and executives are working from home and we are limiting visitors to our facilities as the pandemic continues. All of our facilities are subject to restrictions and closure by governmental entities. The pandemic has and may continue to impact our revenues, our ability to obtain key components and to manufacture our products, as well as sell, install and support our products around the world. We expect to continue to be impacted and respond to customer site restrictions on sales and service visits, travel restrictions, closed borders, cancelled trade shows and industry gatherings, and modifications in our operations to allow social distancing. ~~These same concerns impact our customers, who also may not be able to maintain their financial stability.~~ See also the detailed discussion of the impacts of the coronavirus COVID-19 on our business and markets in Item 1A, Risk Factors in our annual report on Form 10-K. The pandemic could have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in it. Annual projections on spending, growth, mix, and profitability have been and are likely to be further revised substantially as new information is obtained.

In addition to COVID-19 risks, we are facing increased geopolitical risks with respect to markets and supply chains. As countries increasingly seek to favor local suppliers and place punitive tariffs on selected countries, we may be placed at a disadvantage in selling, tariff policy, and asset management in selected regions where we operate and sell.

~~cRITICAL aCCOUNTING pOLICY jUDGMENTS~~

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICY JUDGMENTS AND ~~eSTIMATES~~

ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires that we make estimates and judgments, which affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, sales returns, bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, restructuring charges, contingencies such as litigation and contract terms that have multiple elements and other complexities typical in the capital equipment industry. We base our estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements:

Revenue Recognition: Topic 606 provides a single, principles-based five-step model to be applied to all contracts with customers. It generally provides for the recognition of revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled, net of allowances for estimated returns, discounts or sales incentives, as well as taxes collected from customers when control over the promised goods or services are transferred to the customer.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: We base the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable on our assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and the aging of accounts receivable. If there is deterioration of a major customer’s credit worthiness or actual defaults are higher than historical experience, our estimates of the recoverability of amounts due to us could be adversely affected.

Inventory: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Adjustments are made to standard cost, which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. We estimate reductions to inventory for obsolete, slow-moving, excess and non-salable inventory by reviewing current transactions and forecasted product demand. We evaluate our inventories on an item by item basis and record inventory adjustments accordingly. If there is a significant decrease in demand for our products, uncertainty during product line transitions, or a higher risk of inventory obsolescence because of rapidly changing technology and customer requirements, we may be required to increase our inventory adjustments and our gross margin could be adversely affected.

Warranty Accruals: We accrue for warranty costs based on the expected material and labor costs to fulfill our warranty obligations. If we experience an increase in warranty claims, which are higher than our historical experience, our gross margin could be adversely affected.

Tax Valuation Allowances: Given the uncertainty created by our loss history, as well as the current and ongoing cyclical and COVID-19 related uncertain economic outlook for our industry and capital and geographic spending as well as income and current net deferred tax assets by entity and country, we expect to continue to limit the recognition of net deferred tax assets and accounting for uncertain tax positions and maintain the tax valuation allowances. At the current time, we expect, therefore, that reversals of the tax valuation allowance will take place as we are able to take advantage of the underlying tax loss or other attributes in carry forward or their use by future income or circumstances allow us to realize these attributes. The transfer pricing and expense or cost sharing arrangements are complex areas where judgments, such as the determination of arms-length arrangements, can be subject to challenges by different tax jurisdictions.

Share-based Compensation: We account for share-based awards made to our employees and directors, including employee stock option awards and restricted stock unit awards, using the estimated grant date fair value method of accounting. For options, we estimate the fair value using the Black-Scholes valuation model and an estimated forfeiture rate, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the option’s expected life and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The expected stock price volatility assumption was determined using the historical volatility of our common stock. Changes in the subjective assumptions required in the valuation model may significantly affect the estimated value of the awards, the related stock-based compensation expense and, consequently, our results of operations. Restricted stock unit awards are valued based on the average of the high and low price on the date of the grant and an estimated forfeiture rate. For both options and restricted awards, expense is recognized as compensation expense on the straight-line basis. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) shares were issued under provisions that do not require us to record any equity compensation expense.

On a geographic basis, international sales represented approximately ~~93.8%~~92.5% of total net sales for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2020 compared with ~~89.6%~~89.8% in the prior year period. Total capital equipment sales were ~~53%~~65% of revenues, adapters were ~~28%~~21% and software and maintenance revenues were ~~19%~~14% of revenues ~~in the second quarter of 2020 compared with 61% and 24% and 15%,~~ respectively ~~for the second quarter of 2019.~~

After a strong Q4 2019, business was down in Q1 and Q2 2020, we believe, initially due to seasonality and continued cyclical downturn followed by country and customer business shutdowns related to COVID-19. We are now seeing business and factories reopening and resuming business in China. Many of our automotive electronics customers in the Americas and Europe shutdown operations in March, and have begun to or are setting expectations for reopening in the third quarter of 2020 compared with ~~a gradual ramp up over~~41% and 35% and 24% respectively for the ~~next few quarters to restore their previous business levels. We expect this will continue to impact our capacity related demand during this time frame.~~

third quarter of 2019.

Our turnaround in financial performance in the third quarter of 2020 is bolstered by what appears to be a bottoming out of our primary addressable market for automotive electronics in the second quarter. We are keeping a close watch on the so called COVID ‘second wave’. Europe’s ‘second wave” policy response currently is primarily various forms of ‘lockdowns’.

Net sales for the first ~~six~~nine months of 2020 were ~~$9.4~~$15.4 million, as compared with ~~$11.9~~$15.7 million ~~during~~in the same period in 2019 and declined ~~for~~primarily due to COVID related impacts, especially on the ~~same reasons as in the second quarter of 2020.~~

Backlog at June 30, 2020 was $2.8 million, as compared with $2.3 million at March 31, 2020 and $2.9 million at December 31, 2019. Data I/O had $1.4 million in deferred revenue at the end of the second quarter of 2020, compared with $1.5 million at both the end of the first quarter of 2020 and the fourth quarter of 2019.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were higher in the third quarter of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 primarily due to increases relating to higher stock-based compensation, contractor costs and business-level variable expenses such as higher sales commissions related to channel mix and volume. Partially offsetting these were certain reductions in work hours, pay cuts and various government assistance programs taken in response to COVID-19 which impacted a portion of our third quarter 2020 results as this flowed into the period from actions taken in the second quarter. Also, due to COVID-19 limitations, we continued to reduce travel, trade show and other promotional activities.

Income tax for both the ~~second~~third quarter of 2020 and the same period in 2019, primarily ~~relate~~related to foreign and state taxes. In addition into the ~~first quarter of 2019, a~~ US domestic benefit ~~was~~ realized from converting remaining sequestered AMT credits, that had a full valuation allowance on such credits, into a receivable of approximately $42,000, resulting from IRS rule changes allowing the release of previously sequestered AMT credits.

The effective tax rate differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to the effect of valuation allowances, as well as foreign taxes. We have a valuation allowance of ~~$8.1~~$8.3 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2020. As of ~~June~~September 30 for both 2020 and 2019, our deferred tax assets and valuation allowance have been reduced by approximately ~~$363,000~~$370,000 and ~~$325,000,~~$335,000, respectively, associated with the requirements of accounting for uncertain tax positions. Given the uncertainty created by our loss history, as well as the volatile and uncertain economic outlook for our industry and capital spending, we have limited the recognition of net deferred tax assets including our net operating losses and credit carryforwards and continue to maintain a valuation allowance for the full amount of the net deferred tax asset balance. The CARES Act, initiated in Q1 2020, accelerated the AMT credit refund of $640,000 to be a current asset instead of non-current.

Due to repatriations of cash from China and Canada, we were required to pay $260,000 in withholding tax during 2020, as compared with no withholding tax during 2019. Movements of cash that generate local country withholding taxes ~~create~~will be expected to be a current tax expense that will create additional deferred tax assets that will ~~result in establishing~~create additional tax valuation allowances.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2020, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of existing cash and cash equivalents. Cash decreased ~~$663,000~~$954,000 from December 31, 2019 primarily funding current year net loss and prepaid items, offset, in part, by collections on accounts receivables.

Net working capital at the end of the ~~second~~third quarter was ~~$18.0~~$18.3 million, down slightly from $18.5 million at December 31, 2019. The CARES Act acceleration of the AMT credit refund to current assets, offset some of the other declines in current assets. The company continues to have no debt.

Although we have no significant external capital expenditure plans currently, we expect that we will continue to make and manage carefully capital expenditures to support our business. We plan to increase our internally developed rental, security provisioning, sales demonstration and test equipment as we develop and release new products. Capital expenditures are currently expected to be funded by existing and internally generated funds.

As a result of our cyclical and seasonal industry, significant product development, customer support and selling and marketing efforts, we have required substantial working capital to fund our operations. We have tried to balance our level of development spending with the goal of profitable operations or managing down business levels related to COVID-19. We have implemented or have initiatives to implement geographic shifts in our operations, optimize real estate usage, reduce exposure to the impact of currency volatility and tariffs, increase product development differentiation, and reduce costs.

We believe that we have sufficient cash or working capital available under our operating plan to fund our operations and capital requirements through at least the next one-year period. We may require additional cash at the U.S. headquarters, which could cause potential repatriation of cash that is held in our foreign subsidiaries. We have liquidated our subsidiary in Canada and repatriated its cash. For any repatriation, there may be tax and other impediments to any repatriation actions. As many repatriations typically have associated withholding taxes, those ~~taxes~~ withheld will be a current tax without generating a current or deferred tax ~~benefit able to be recognized as they result in establishing additional valuation allowances.~~benefit. Our working capital may be used to fund possible losses, business growth, project initiatives, share repurchases and business development initiatives including acquisitions, which could reduce our liquidity and result in a requirement for additional cash before that time. Any substantial inability to achieve our current business plan could have a material adverse impact on our financial position, liquidity, or results of operations and may require us to reduce expenditures and/or seek possible additional financing.

Non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
