1. Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Allied Healthcare Products, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other quarter or for the full year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes to the financial statements thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2018.2019.

Adoption of new revenue recognitionlease standard

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a new accounting standard that amends the guidance for the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers to transfer goods and services. The FASB subsequently issued additional, clarifying standards to address issues arising from implementation of the new revenue recognition standard. The new revenue recognition standard and clarifying standards require an entity to recognize revenue when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted this new standard as of July 1, 2018, by applying the modified-retrospective method to those contracts that were not completed as of that date.

The results for reporting periods beginning after July 1, 2018, are presented in accordance with the new standard, although comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards and policies in effect for those periods. See Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2018.

The cumulative impact on accumulated deficit as a result of the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s historical net losses and, therefore, no adjustment was made to the opening balance of accumulated deficit. In addition, the impact on reported total revenues and operating income as compared to what reported amounts would have been under the prior standard was also immaterial. The Company expects the impact of adoption in future periods to also be immaterial. The accounting policies under the new standard were applied prospectively and are described below. See Note 2, Revenues.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “LeasesLeases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 monthson-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Consistent with current U.S. GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising fromThe new standard establishes a lease byright-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee primarilyto recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will depend on its classificationbe classified as a finance or operating, lease. with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement.

The update isnew standard was effective for reportingAllied on July 1, 2019. The Company adopted the new standard on its effective date and used the effective date as our date of initial application. Consequently, financial information recorded and the disclosures required under the new standard are not provided for dates and periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoptionbefore July 1, 2019. Additionally, the Company determined that as of the effective date of the standard, it had no material impact on the financial statements or disclosures of the Company.

The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. We elected the package of practical expedients which does not require us to reassess under the new standard our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. Leasing activities are not significant to Allied’s business and there is permitted. no significant change in the Company’s leasing activities upon adoption. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases with terms of less than 12 months.

Environmental Remediation

The Company is insubject to federal and state requirements for protection of the processenvironment, including the remediation of evaluatingcontaminated sites. The Company’s policy is to accrue and charge to current expense identified exposures related to environmental remediation sites when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the impactamount can be reasonably estimated. The amount of this updatethe liability is based on its financial statements.the best estimate or the low end of a range of reasonably possible exposure for investigation, cleanup, and monitoring costs to be incurred. Estimated remediation costs are not discounted to present value.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and the revolving credit facility. The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of the revolving credit facility approximates fair value due to the debt having a variable interest rate.

Going Concern, Liquidity and Management’s Plan

The Company believes the combination of cash on hand at December 31, 2019, additional borrowings on the credit facility (Note 6) and reductions in inventory levels and future operating expenses will be sufficient to meet its obligations as they become due in the ordinary course of business for at least 12 months following the date these financial statements are issued. To the extent these measures do not provide sufficient liquidity, the Company will consider additional borrowings through the sale leaseback of its corporate headquarters and delaying certain expenditures until sufficient capital becomes available. Historically, the Company has experienced, and continues to experience, net losses and net losses from operations. Additionally, the Company expects to incur significant environmental costs that are planned to be expended over the next year (Note 5). The Company’s liquidity needs will be largely determined by the success of the Company executing management’s plan.

2. Revenues

The Company’s revenues are derived primarily from the sales of respiratory products, medical gas equipment and emergency medical products. The products are generally sold directly to distributors, customers affiliated with buying groups, individual customers and construction contractors, throughout the world.

The Company recognizes revenue from product sales upon the transfer of control, which is generally upon shipment or delivery, depending on the delivery terms set forth in the customer contract. Payment terms between Allied and its customers vary by the type of customer, country of sale, and the products offered. The term between invoicing and the payment due date is not significant.

Management exercises judgment in estimating variable consideration. Provisions for early payment discounts, rebates and returns and other adjustments are provided for in the period the related sales are recorded. Historical data is readily available and reliable, and is used for estimating the amount of the reduction in gross sales.

The Company provides rebates to wholesalers. Rebate amounts are based upon purchases using contractual amount for each product sold. Factors used in the rebate calculations include the identification of which products have been sold subject to a rebate and the customer or price terms that apply. Using known contractual allowances, the Company estimates the amount of the rebate that will be paid, and records the liability as a reduction of gross sales when it records the sale of the product. Settlement of the rebate generally occurs in the month following the sale.

The Company regularly analyzes the historical rebate trends and makes adjustments to reserves for changes in trends and terms of rebate programs. Historically, adjustments to prior years’ rebate accruals have not been material to net income.

Other allowances charged against gross sales include cash discounts and returns, which are not significant. Cash discounts are known within 15 to 30 days of sale, and therefore can be reliably estimated. Returns can be reliably estimated because the Company’s historical returns are low, and because sales return terms and other sales terms have remained relatively unchanged for several periods. Product warranties are also not significant.

The Company does not allocate transaction price as the Company has only one performance obligation and its contracts do not span multiple periods.

The Company operates in one segment consisting of themanufacturing, marketing and distribution of a variety of respiratory products used in the health care industry to hospitals, hospital equipment dealers, hospital construction contractors, home health care dealers and emergency medical product dealers. The Company’s product lines include respiratory care products, medical gas equipment and emergency medical products.The Company does not have any one single customer that represents more than 10 percent of total sales. Sales by region, and by product, are as follows:

3. Inventories

Inventories are comprised as follows:

4. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares of all common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are based on the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. The number of basic and diluted shares outstanding for the three and ninesix months ended MarchDecember 31, 2019 and 2018 were 4,013,537.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Claims

The Company is subject to various investigations, claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. The Company intends to continue to conduct business in such a manner as to avert any FDA action seeking to interrupt or suspend manufacturing or require any recall or modification of products.

The Company has recognized the costs and associated liabilities only for those investigations, claims and legal proceedings for which in its view it is probable that liabilities have been incurred and the related amounts are estimable. Based upon information currently available, management believes that existing accrued liabilities are sufficient.

Stuyvesant Falls Power Litigation.On January 30, 2020, the Company filed a Citizen Participation Plan with the New York Department of Environmental Conservation under its Brownfield Cleanup Program. The Company has been involved in litigationplan was filed with Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation d/b/a National Grid (“Niagara”), which provides electrical powerrespect to the Company’s facilityproperty in Stuyvesant Falls, New York,York. The plan recognizes that the soil and one other party. The Company maintained in its defense of the lawsuit that it is entitled to a certain amount of free electricity based on covenants running with the land which have been honored for more than a century. After the commencement of the litigation, Niagara began sending invoices to the Company for electricity used at the Company’s Stuyvesant Falls plant. Niagara’s attempts to collect such invoices were stopped in December 2010 by a temporary restraining order. Among other things, Niagara sought as damages the value of electricity received by the Company without charge. The total value of electricity at issue in the litigation was not known with certainty and Niagara alleged different amounts of damages. Niagara alleged in its Second Amended Verified Complaint, dated February 6, 2012, damages of approximately $469,000 in free electricity from May 2003 through May 2010. Niagara also alleged in its Motion For Summary Judgment, filed on March 14, 2014, damages of approximately $492,000 in free electricity from May 2010 through the date of the filing. In April 2015, Allied received an invoice for electrical powergroundwater at the Stuyvesant Falls plant with an “Amount Due” balance of $696,000 as of March 31, 2015 without any description asfacility is impacted by chemical compounds exceeding regulatory standards. The Company has applied to the period of time coveredBrownfield Cleanup Program. Pursuant to the plan, the Company will conduct, at its expense, investigation and remediation at the site with oversight by the invoice.Department of Environmental Conservation.

The Company filed a Motion for Summary Judgment on March 14, 2014, seeking dismissalCompany’s best estimate of Niagara’s claimsthe expected cost to remediate the site is $0.9 million. This amount was recorded as an expense in the three months ended December 31, 2019 and oral arguments on the motions were held on June 13, 2014. On October 1, 2014, the Court grantedis reflected in other accrued liabilities and selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s motion, denied Niagara’s motion and ruled that the Company is entitled to receive electrical power pursuant to the power covenants. On October 26 and October 30, 2014, Niagara and the other party filed separate notices of appeal of the Court’s decision. On March 31, 2016 the Supreme Court of New York, Appellate Division, Third Department reversed the trial court decision and held that the free power covenants are no longer enforceable. The Company’s application for leave to appeal this ruling was dismissed as premature by the New York Court of Appeals on September 20, 2016. On May 26, 2017 the Company again moved for leave to appeal the March 31, 2016 decision. That motion was granted on October 7, 2017 by the New York State Court of Appeals. The Company filed its brief and record on January 26, 2018. Niagara and the other party to the lawsuit, Albany Engineering Corporation, filed their responses on July 16, 2018 and the Company filed its reply on August 14, 2018.financial statements.

On February 20, 2019, the Company, Niagara and Albany entered into a Final Settlement Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to cancel and forgo its rights to free power from either Niagara or Albany under the power covenants. The New York State Court of Appeals granted a request of all parties to withdraw the appeal on March 5, 2019 and all parties entered a Stipulation of Discontinuance on March 7, 2019 which discontinued the litigation. By separate agreement, Niagara paid the Company $750,000 as consideration for the Company’s agreements pursuant to the settlement. On March 15, 2019 the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York granted Niagara’s request to withdraw its pending appeal. The matter is now fully concluded.

Employment Contract

The Company has entered into an employment contract with its chief executive officer with annual renewals. The contract includes termination without cause and change of control provisions, under which the chief executive officer is entitled to receive specified severance payments generally equal to two times ending annual salary if the Company terminates his employment without cause or he voluntarily terminates his employment with “good reason.” “Good Reason” generally includes changes in the scope of his duties or location of employment but also includes (i) the Company’s written election not to renew the Employment Agreement and (ii) certain voluntary resignations by the chief executive officer following a “Change of Control” as defined in the Agreement.

6. Financing

The Company is party to a Loan and Security Agreement with North Mill Capital, LLC (“North Mill”), as successor in interest to Summit Financial Resources, L.P. (“Summit”), dated effective February 27, 2017, as amended April 16, 2018 and April 24, 2019 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Company obtained a secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by all of the Company’s personal property, both tangible and intangible, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. Availability of funds under the Credit Agreement is based on the Company’s accounts receivable and inventory but will not exceed $2,000,000. At MarchDecember 31, 2019 availability under the agreement was $1,502,130.$0.4 million.

The Credit Facility will be available, subject to its terms, on a revolving basis until it expires on February 27, 2021, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility will be due and payable. Advances will bear interest at a rate equal to 2.00% in excess of the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal. Interest is computed based on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. In addition to interest, the Credit facility requires that the Company pay the lender a monthly administration fee in an amount equal to forty-seven hundredths percent (0.47%) of the average outstanding daily principal amount of loan advances for the each calendar month, or portion thereof.

Regardless of the amount borrowed under the Credit Facility, the Company will pay a minimum amount of .25% (25 basis points) per month on the maximum availability ($5,000 per month). In the event the Company prepays or terminates the Credit Facility prior to February 27, 2021, the Company will be obligated to pay an amount equal to the minimum monthly payment multiplied by the number of months remaining between February 27, 2021 and the date of such prepayment or termination.

Under the Credit Agreement, advances are generally subject to customary borrowing conditions and to Summit’sNorth Mill’s sole discretion to fund the advances. The Credit Agreement also contains covenants with which the Company must comply during the term of the Credit Facility. Among other things, such covenants require the Company to maintain insurance on the collateral, operate in the ordinary course and not engage in a change of control, dissolve or wind up the Company.

The Credit Agreement also contains certain events of default including, without limitation: the failure to make payments when due; the material breach of representations or warranties contained in the Credit Agreement or other loan documents; cross-default with other indebtedness of the Company; the entry of judgments or fines that may have a material adverse effect on the Company; failure to comply with the observance or performance of covenants contained in the Credit Agreement or other loan documents; insolvency of the Company, appointment of a receiver, commencement of bankruptcy or other insolvency proceedings; dissolution of the Company; the attachment of any state or federal tax lien; attachment or levy upon or seizure of the Company’s property; or any change in the Company’s condition that may have a material adverse effect. After an event of default, and upon the continuation thereof, the principal amount of all loans made under the Credit Facility would bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 20.00% above the otherwise applicable interest rate (provided, that the interest rate may not exceed the highest rate permissible under law), and Summit would have the option to accelerate maturity and payment of the Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility.

At MarchDecember 31, 2019, the Company had $410,735$985,790 of indebtedness, including capital lease obligations, short-term debt and long term debt.indebtedness. The prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal was 5.50%4.75% on MarchDecember 31, 2019.

The Company was in compliance with all of the covenants associated with the Credit Facility at MarchDecember 31, 2019.

7.Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740: “Income Taxes.” Under ASC 740, the deferred tax provision is determined using the liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based upon temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using presently enacted tax rates. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.  Due to the reduction in the cumulative to date loss occurring inIn the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of approximately $100,000 along with a reduction in the valuation allowance for a like amount. For the nine months ended MarchDecember 31, 2019 the Company recorded the tax benefit of cumulative losses incurred to date in the amount of approximately $406,000.$387,000 and $541,000, respectively.  As the realization of the tax benefit of the net operating loss incurred to date is not assured an additional valuation allowance of a like amount was recorded.

For the three and ninesix months ended MarchDecember 31, 2018 the Company recorded the tax benefit of losses incurred in the amount of approximately $260,000$201,000 and $627,000.$506,000. As the realization of the tax benefit of the net operating loss is not assured an additional valuation allowance of a like amount was recorded. The total valuation allowance recorded by the Company as of MarchDecember 31, 2019 and 2018 was approximately $2,606,000$3,266,000 and $2,132,000,$2,706,000, respectively.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) was enacted in the U.S. on December 22, 2017. The TCJA reduced the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%. As a result of this reduction in rate in the second quarter of the fiscal year ended 2018 the Company recorded a reduction in its recognized deferred tax assets along with a reduction in the valuation allowance. The impact of those adjustments resulted in a net reduction of recognized deferred tax assets and a resultant income tax expense in the amount of $136,386 for the nine-months ended March 31, 2018. To the extent that the Company’s losses continue in future quarters, the tax benefit of those losses will be subject to a valuation allowance.

Due toIn the reduction in the cumulative to date loss occurring in the three monthsquarter ended MarchDecember 31, 2019 athe tax provisionbenefit of losses in the amount of $100,000approximately $387,000 was recorded offset by a reduction in the valuation allowance. In the quarter ended March 31, 2018, the tax benefit of loss incurred in the quarter in the amount of $260,000, was recorded and fully offset by a valuation allowance of equivalent amount.   In the quarter ended December 31, 2018 the Company recorded the tax benefit of losses incurred in the amount of approximately $201,000 net of additions to the valuation allowance of like amount. To the extent that the Company’s losses continue in future quarters, the tax benefit of those losses will be fully offset by a valuation allowance.

The weighted average number of common shares outstanding, used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the second quarters of fiscal 2020 and 2019 were 4,013,537.

Six months ended December 31, 2019 compared to six months ended December 31, 2018

Allied had net sales of $15.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019, down $0.1 million, or 0.6% from net sales of $15.4 million in the prior year same period.

The Company is self-insured for medical benefits and there is variation in the amount of claims over time.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2019 were $4.7 million compared to selling, general and administrative expenses of $4.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are its cash, cash equivalents, other items of working capital and available borrowing under the Credit Facility discussed below.

The Company’s working capital was $7.7$5.5 million at MarchDecember 31, 2019 compared to $8.7$7.4 million at June 30, 2018.2019. Accounts Receivable decreased by $0.3$0.2 million, Accounts Payable increased by $0.4 million, Other Accrued Liabilities increased by $0.5 million and debt increased $0.4$1.0 million. During fiscal 2019,2020, these decreases in working capital were partially offset by a $0.1$0.2 million increase in Inventory.Inventory and a $0.2 million increase in Cash and cash equivalents. Accounts Payable and Other Accrued Liabilities areis subject to normal fluctuations in purchasing levels and the timing of payments within the quarter.quarter and Other Accrued Liabilities increased by a $0.9 million provision for environmental costs. Accounts Receivable was $3.4$2.9 million at MarchDecember 31, 2019, a decrease from $3.7$3.2 million at June 30, 2018.2019. Accounts Receivable as measured in days sales outstanding (“DSO”) was 39 DSO at MarchDecember 31, 2019; a decrease from 41 DSO at2019 and June 30, 2018.2019. The Company does adjust product forecast, order quantities and safety stock based on changes in demand patterns in order to manage inventory levels.

As of MarchDecember 31, 2019, the Company was party to a Loan and Security Agreement with North Mill Capital, LLC (“North Mill”), as successor in interest to Summit Financial Resources, L.P. (“Summit”), dated effective February 27, 2017, as amended April 16, 2018 and April 24, 2019 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Company obtained a secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by all of the Company’s personal property, both tangible and intangible, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. Availability of funds under the Credit Agreement is based on the Company’s accounts receivable and inventory but will not exceed $2,000,000.  At MarchDecember 31, 2019 availability under the agreement was $1,502,130. The increase in availability during the quarter reflects decreased borrowing due to improved cash flow in the quarter.$0.4 million. The Company expects that it will use the Credit Facility to finance the Company’s operations in the short term.

The Credit Facility will be available, subject to its terms, on a revolving basis until it expires on February 27, 2021, at which time all amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility will be due and payable. Advances will bear interest at a rate equal to 2.00% in excess of the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal. Interest is computed based on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. In addition to interest, the Credit facility requires that the Company pay the lender a monthly administration fee in an amount equal to forty-seven hundredths percent (0.47%) of the average outstanding daily principal amount of loan advances for the each calendar month, or portion thereof.

Regardless of the amount borrowed under the Credit Facility, the Company will pay a minimum amount of .25% (25 basis points) per month on the maximum availability ($5,000 per month). In the event the Company prepays or terminates the Credit Facility prior to February 27, 2021, the Company will be obligated to pay an amount equal to the minimum monthly payment multiplied by the number of months remaining between February 27, 2021 and the date of such prepayment or termination.

Under the Credit Agreement, advances are generally subject to customary borrowing conditions and to Summit’sNorth Mill’s sole discretion to fund the advances. The Credit Agreement also contains covenants with which the Company must comply during the term of the Credit Facility. Among other things, such covenants require the Company to maintain insurance on the collateral, operate in the ordinary course and not engage in a change of control, dissolve or wind up the Company.

The Credit Agreement also contains certain events of default including, without limitation: the failure to make payments when due; the material breach of representations or warranties contained in the Credit Agreement or other loan documents; cross-default with other indebtedness of the Company; the entry of judgments or fines that may have a material adverse effect on the Company; failure to comply with the observance or performance of covenants contained in the Credit Agreement or other loan documents; insolvency of the Company, appointment of a receiver, commencement of bankruptcy or other insolvency proceedings; dissolution of the Company; the attachment of any state or federal tax lien; attachment or levy upon or seizure of the Company’s property; or any change in the Company’s condition that may have a material adverse effect. After an event of default, and upon the continuation thereof, the principal amount of all loans made under the Credit Facility would bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 20.00% above the otherwise applicable interest rate (provided, that the interest rate may not exceed the highest rate permissible under law), and SummitNorth Mill would have the option to accelerate maturity and payment of the Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility.

At MarchDecember 31, 2019, the Company had $410,735$985,790 of indebtedness, including capital lease obligations, short-term debt, and long term debt.debt and an immaterial amount of capital leases. The prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal was 5.50%4.75% on MarchDecember 31, 2019.

Further reductions in availability, either due to continued losses, or changes by SummitNorth Mill to the Company’s borrowing base, could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity and ability to meet our operating requirements. In such a case, the Company would need to access additional sources of liquidity if it does not return to profitability. If the Company were unable to reach such an agreement with SummitNorth Mill to increase availability, the Company could also attempt to negotiate a larger credit facility with another lender, but the Company would be obligated to pay the above described pre-payment penalty to Summit.North Mill. There is no assurance that the Company could secure either increased availability from SummitNorth Mill or a new credit facility from a new lender, in which case the Company would have to use other assets to obtain liquidity, such as a sale-leaseback of some or all of its real estate.

The Company was in compliance with all of the covenants associated with the Credit Facility at MarchDecember 31, 2019.

Further losses or negative cash flow, including as a result of expenses connected with the investigation and possible environmental remediation of the Stuyvesant Falls facility, could result in the Company requiring additional capital or liquidity, which may not be available or may only be available on economically adverse terms. Specifically, the Company believes it can reduce negative cash flow through a combination of reductions in operating expenses and reductions in inventory. To the extent these measures do not provide sufficient liquidity, the Company will consider additional borrowings through the sale leaseback of its corporate headquarters and delaying certain expenditures until sufficient capital becomes available.

Litigation and Contingencies

The Company becomes, from time to time, a party to personal injury litigation arising out of incidents involving the use of its products. The Company believes that any potential judgments resulting from these claims over its self-insured retention will be covered by the Company’s product liability insurance. See Part II, Item 1 – Legal Proceedings, below, for more information concerning litigation.

Critical Accounting Policies

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

See Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies for more information on recent accounting pronouncements and their impact, if any, on the Company’s financial statements. Management believes there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

At MarchDecember 31, 2019, the Company had $410,735$985,790 debt outstanding. The Credit Facility bears interest at a rate using the Prime Rate, as reported in the Wall Street Journal, as the basis, and therefore is subject to additional expense should there be an increase in market interest rates while borrowing on the revolving credit facility.

The Company had no holdings of derivative financial or commodity instruments at MarchDecember 31, 2019. The Company has international sales; however these sales are denominated in U.S. dollars, mitigating foreign exchange rate fluctuation risk.
