Recently IssuedAdopted Accounting Standards

InFinancial Instruments – Credit Losses. The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued five Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) related to financial instruments – credit losses. The ASUs issued were: (1) in June 2016, ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASC 326”): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” (2) in November 2018, ASU 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses,” (3) in April 2019, ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments,” (4) in May 2014,2019, ASU 2019-05, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief” and (5) in November 2019, ASU 2019-11, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses.” Additionally, in February and March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-02, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (ASC 842): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 2014-09: “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”. This guidance was issued119 and Update to clarify the principles for recognizing revenueSEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (ASC 842)” and develop a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and InternationalASU 2020-03, “Codification Improvements to Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). In addition, in August 2015, the FASB issued Instruments,” respectively, which include amendments to ASC 326.
ASU No. 2015-14: “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).  This update was issued to defer the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year.  Therefore, the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 is for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017.  Based on management’s assessment of ASU No. 2014-09, management does not expect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02: “Leases (Topic 842)” which2016-13 is intended to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions.  This ASU will require organizations (“lessees”) that lease assets with lease termsby requiring timelier recording of more than twelve months to recognizecredit losses on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases.  Organizations that own the assets leased by lessees (“lessors”) will remain largely unchanged from current GAAP.  In addition, this ASU will require disclosures to help investorsloans and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timinginstruments held by financial institutions and uncertainty of cash flowsother organizations. ASU 2018-19 clarifies that receivables arising from leases.  Theoperating leases are not within the scope of the credit losses standard, but rather, should be accounted for in accordance with the leasing standard. ASU 2019-04 clarifies and improves areas of guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018related to the recently issued standards on financial instruments – credit losses, derivatives and early adoption is permitted.  Based on management’s initial assessment,hedging, and financial instruments. ASU No. 2016-02 will2019-05 provides entities that have a material impact oncertain instruments within the Company’s consolidated financial statements.  The Company is a lessee on certain leases that will need to be reported as rightscope of use assets and liabilitiesASC Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at an estimated amount of $3 million on the Company’s consolidated financial statements on the date of adoption.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09: “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718)” which is intended to improve employee share-based payment accounting.  This ASU identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities,Amortized Cost, with an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognizedirrevocably elect the fair value option in Subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments—Overall. ASU 2019-11 clarifies guidance around how to report expected recoveries and reinforces existing guidance that prohibits organizations from recording negative allowances for available-for-sale debt securities, among other narrow scope and technical improvements. ASU 2020-02 adds a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) paragraph pursuant to the

issuance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 on loan losses to FASB Codification ASC 326 and also updates the SEC section of the Codification for the change in the effective date of ASC 842. ASU 2020-03 makes narrow-scope improvements to various aspects of the financial instrument guidance as they occur, as well as certain classificationspart of the FASB’s ongoing Codification improvement project aimed at clarifying specific areas of accounting guidance to help avoid unintended application.
The Company adopted the applicable guidance in ASU 2016-13, ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-11, ASU 2020-02 and ASU 2020-03 on January 1, 2023, and the statement of cash flows.  The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods.  Early adoption is permitted.  Management has determined that ASU No. 2016-09 willdid not have a material impact on the Company’sits consolidated financial statements.  The Company does not currently have excess tax benefits or deficiencies from stock compensation expense.  The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-09 on October 1, 2017.statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13: “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326) – Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.  This ASU requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for most financial assets held at the reporting date based on an expected loss model which includes historical experience, current

conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.  Entities will now use forward-looking information to better form their credit loss estimates.  This ASU also requires enhanced disclosures to help financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an entity’s portfolio.  ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal periods.  Entities may adopt earlier as of the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  We are currently in the process of evaluating this new standard update.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15: “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.”  This ASU addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice.  The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  Early adoption is permitted.  Based on management’s initial assessment of ASU No. 2016-15, the cash flows associated with guaranteed payments for acquisition of businesses will be reported as a financing activity in the Statement of Cash Flows, as opposed to an investing activity where it is currently reported.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04: “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) – Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.”  This ASU eliminates the second step in the goodwill impairment test which requires an entity to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill.  Instead, an entity should recognize an impairment loss if the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, with the impairment loss not to exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. This ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests conducted in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating methodology changes that may be required in performing its annual goodwill impairment assessment in connection with this ASU and any impact that these changes may have on the Company’s financial statements.

Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.  These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.

Note 3 – Accounts Receivable Agreements
The Company maintains accounts receivable purchase facilities for its Nave and September 30, 2017Triton subsidiaries with its primary financial lender with capacities of $10.0 million for Nave and $3.0 million for Triton. The lender charges a fee of 1.75% of sold receivables. The Company also maintains accounts receivable purchase facilities for its Fulton subsidiary, providing a credit capacity excluding a major customer of $3.0 million, with a fee of 2.0% of sold receivables, and credit capacity secured by receivables of a major customer of $3.0 million, with a fee of 1.6% of sold receivables.

All four facilities are secured by the subsidiary's receivables, and the lender advances 90% of sold receivables and establishes a reserve of 10% of the sold receivables at initial sale, which increases to 100% over time after 120 days, until the Company collects the sold receivables. All four facilities mature on December 17, 2023.
The Company has a total capacity under all four facilities of $19.0 million. As of March 31, 2023, the lender has a reserve against the sold receivables of $1.5 million, which is reflected as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets.  The facilities agreements address events and conditions which may obligate the Company to immediately repay the institution the outstanding purchase price of the receivables sold. The total amount of receivables uncollected by the institution was $7.0 million at March 31, 2023.  Although the sale of receivables is with recourse, the Company did not record a recourse obligation at March 31, 2023 as the Company concluded that the sold receivables are collectible.

New inventoryequipment includes products purchased from the manufacturers plus “surplus-new”, which are unused products purchased from other distributors or multiple system operators.  Refurbished inventoryand used equipment includes factory refurbished, Company refurbished and used products. Generally, the Company does not refurbish its used inventory until there is a sale of that product or to keep a certain quantity on hand.

The Company regularly reviews the Cable TV segment inventory quantities on hand, and an adjustment to cost is recognized when the loss of usefulness of an item or other factors, such as obsolete and excess inventories, indicate that cost will not be recovered when an item is sold.  The Company recorded charges in the Cable TV segment to allow for obsolete inventory, which increased the cost of sales $0.2 million during the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

For the Telco segment, any obsolete or excess telecommunications inventory is generally processed through its recycling program when it is identified.  However, the Telco segment has identified certain inventory that more than likely will not be sold or that the cost will not be recovered when it is sold, and had not yet been processed through its recycling program.  Therefore, the Company has a $0.7 million reserve at December 31, 2017.  We also reviewed the cost of inventories against estimated net realizable value and recorded a lower of cost or net realizable value charge for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 of $12 thousand and $33 thousand, respectively, for inventories that have a cost in excess of estimated net realizable value.

Fair Value of Debt

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishesSales Agreement. As a consistent framework for measuring fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs used to measure fair value.  The three levelsresult of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:termination, no shares were sold during the three months ended March 31, 2023.


·Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical assets in active markets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
·Level 2 – Inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable. These inputs are either directly observable in the marketplace or indirectly observable through corroboration with market data for substantially the full contractual term of the asset or liability being measured.
·Level 3 – Inputs that are not observable for which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability being measured. These inputs reflect management’s best estimate of the assumptions market participants would use in determining fair value.

The Company has determined the carrying value of its variable-rate term loan approximates its fair value since the interest rate fluctuates periodically based on a floating interest rate.

9

The Company has determined the fair value of its fixed-rate term loan utilizing the Level 2 hierarchy as the fair value can be estimated from broker quotes corroborated by other market data.  These broker quotes are based on observable market interest rates at which loans with similar terms and maturities could currently be executed.  The Company then estimated the fair value of the fixed-rate term loans using cash flows discounted at the current market interest rate obtained.  The fair value of the Company’s second outstanding fixed rate loan was $2.5 million as of December 31, 2017.

The Company did not recognize a tax benefit for compensation expense recognized during the three months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2017.  The Company estimates the fair value of the options granted using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.  The Company estimates the expected term of options granted based on the historical grants2023 and exercises of the Company’s options.  The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock at the date of the grant based on both the historical volatility as well as the implied volatility on its common stock.  The Company bases the risk-free rate that is used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model on the implied yield in effect at the time of the option grant on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with equivalent expected term.  The Company has never paid cash dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future.  Consequently, the Company uses an expected dividend yield of zero in the Black-Scholes option valuation model.  The Company amortizes the resulting fair value of the options ratably over the vesting period of the awards.  The Company uses historical data to estimate the pre-vesting option forfeitures and records share-based expense only for those awards that are expected to vest.2022.

Consolidated gross profit was $3.4 million, or 23% gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to gross profit of $5.8 million, or 24% gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $2.4 million. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to a decrease in the Telco segment of $2.1 million.
Consolidated operating expenses include indirect costs associated with operating our business. Indirect costs include indirect personnel costs, facility costs, vehicles, insurance, communication, and business taxes, among other cost categories. Operating expenses were $2.0 million, compared to $2.8 million in the same period last year, a decrease of $0.8 million due primarily to cost control measures instituted by the Company throughout 2022.
Consolidated selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses include overhead costs, which consist of personnel costs, insurance, professional services, and communication, among other less significant cost categories. SG&A expense decreased $0.2 million, or 6%, to $3.6 million for the three months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2016.  The increase in sales was in the Telco segment of $1.0 million, partially offset by a decrease in the Cable TV segment of $0.8 million.  Consolidated gross profit decreased $0.6 million, or 16%, to $3.4 million for the three months ended

Segment Results
Wireless
Revenues for the Cable TVWireless segment of $1.1decreased $1.2 million partially offset by an increase in the Telco segment of $0.5 million.

Consolidated operating, selling, general and administrative expenses include all personnel costs, which include fringe benefits, insurance and business taxes, as well as occupancy, communication and professional services, among other less significant cost categories.  Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses remained flat at $3.6to $6.6 million for the three months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2017 compared to2023 from $7.8 million for the same period of last year. ThisThe decline in revenues over the prior year period relates to the pace of the 5G services construction undertaken on behalf of our expanded customer base. Revenues from some customers have been impacted by global supply chain issues as components necessary for build outs have slowed in some cases.
Gross profit was due$1.3 million, or 20% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to an increase$1.5 million, or 20%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in gross profit dollars was the result of $0.2lower revenues quarter-over-quarter.
Loss from operations was $2.1 million and $2.2 million for three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease is mainly attributable to the decline in revenue.
Telco
Sales for the Telco segment offset by a decrease in the Cable TV segment of $0.1 million.

Interest expense remained flat at $0.1decreased $7.9 million to $8.1 million for the three months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2017 and 2016.

The provision for income taxes was $0.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 20172023 from a provision for income taxes of $0.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016.  The increase in the tax provision was due primarily to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted on December 22, 2017.  One of the provisions of this legislation was to reduce the corporate income tax rates effective beginning January 1, 2018.  As a result of the reduced corporate income tax rate, the Company remeasured its deferred tax balances at the reduced corporate income tax rate, which resulted in income tax expense of $0.4 million.  The Company estimates that its effective income tax rate for the remaining quarters of fiscal year 2018 will be approximately 27% as a result of the legislation.

Segment Results

Cable TV

Sales for the Cable TV segment decreased $0.8 million to $5.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017 from $6.6$16.0 million for the same period last year. The decrease in revenues was related to lower sales was due to a decrease inof used and refurbished equipment salesas wireless and repair service revenueoptical carrier customers absorbed quantities of $0.5 million each, partially offset by an increaseinventory purchased in new equipment revenue of $0.2 million.  The decrease in the refurbished equipment sales was due primarily to an overall decrease in demand for the three months ended December 31, 2017 as compared to last year. The decrease in repair service revenue was due primarily to the loss of a significant repair customer in the quarter.  As a result of this loss, the Company has closed two of its repair facilities and laid off personnel at its remaining repair facilities.

2022.
Gross marginprofit was 21% for the three months ended December 31, 2017 compared to 37% for the same period last year.  The decrease in gross margin was due primarily to a significant increase in volume for a new equipment sales customer with low margins.

Operating, selling, general$2.1 million and administrative expenses decreased $0.1 million to $1.4$4.2 million for the three months ended DecemberMarch 31, 20172023 and 2022, respectively. The decreased gross profit was due primarily to lower revenues of $8.1 million.
Loss from $1.5operations was $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to income of $1.0 million for the same period last year.

Telco

Sales for the Telco segment increased $1.0 million to $6.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017 from $5.5 million for the same period last year.  The increase in sales for the Telco segment was due to an increase in equipment sales and recycling revenue of $0.7 million and $0.3 million, respectively.  The increase in Telco equipment sales wasyear, primarily due to Triton Datacom, which offset the continued lower equipment sales from Nave Communications.  The Company is continuing to address the lower equipment sales at Nave Communications by restructuring and expanding its sales force, targeting a broader end-user customer base, increasing its sales to the reseller market and expanding the capacity of its recycling program.reasons discussed above.

Gross margin was 34% for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 29% for the three months ended December 31, 2016.  The increase in gross margin was due primarily to higher gross margins from equipment sales to end-user customers and our recycling program.

Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.1 million to $2.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017 from $2.1 million for the same period last year.  This increase was due primarily to earn-out expenses related to the Triton Miami, Inc. acquisition of $0.1 million.

Critical Accounting Policies

Note 1 toOur unaudited consolidated financial statements are impacted by the Consolidated Financial Statements in Form 10-K for fiscal 2017 includes aaccounting policies used and the estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation. A complete summary of theour significant accounting policies or methods usedis included in the preparationNote 1- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our Consolidated Financial Statements.  Some of those significant accounting policies or methods require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported by us.  We believe the following items require the most significant judgments and often involve complex estimates.

Form 10-K.
General

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current market conditions, and various other factors we believe to be reasonable, under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.certain assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most significant estimates and assumptions are discussed below.

Accounts receivable
Trade receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful accounts. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history and current economic conditions. Trade receivables are written off against the allowance when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The Company generally does not charge interest on past due accounts. The adoption of the guidance in ASC 326 did not have a material impact on trade receivables and the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Inventory Valuation

OurFor our Telco segment, our position in the telecommunications industry requires us to carry large inventory quantities relative to annual sales, but it also allows us to realize high overallhigher gross profit margins on our sales.  We market our products primarily to MSOs, telecommunication providers, telecommunication resellers, and other users of cable television and telecommunication equipment who are seeking products for which manufacturers have discontinued production or cannot ship new equipment on a same-day basis, as well as providing used products as an alternative to new products from the manufacturer.  Carrying these large inventory quantities represents our largest risk.risk for our Telco segment.

Our inventories are all carried in the Telco segment and consist of new and used electronic components for the telecommunications industry.  Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined using the weighted-average method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation.  At March 31, 2023, we had total inventory, before the reserve for excess and obsolete inventories, of $12.6 million, consisting of $2.1 million in new products and $10.4 million in used or refurbished products.
16
Table of Contents
We are required to make judgments as to future demand requirements from our customers. We regularly review the value of our inventory in detail with consideration given to rapidly changing technology which can significantly affect

16
future customer demand.  For individual inventory items, we may carry inventory quantities that are excessive relative to market potential, or we may not be able to recover our acquisition costs for sales that we do make.  In order to address the risks associated with our investment in inventory, we review inventory quantities on hand and reduce the carrying value when the loss of usefulness of an item or other factors, such as obsolete and excess inventories, indicate that cost will not be recovered when an item is sold.

Our inventories consist of new and used electronic components for the cable television and telecommunications industries.  Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined using the weighted-average method.  Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation.  At December 31, 2017, we had total inventory, before the reserve for excess and obsolete inventories, of $25.5 million, consisting of $14.8 million in new products and $10.7 million in used or refurbished products.

For the Cable TV segment, our reserve at December 31, 2017 for excess and obsolete inventory was $2.5 million, which reflects an increase of $0.2 million to reflect deterioration in the market demand of that inventory.  If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, and our estimates prove to be inaccurate, we could be required to increase our inventory reserve and our gross margins could be materially adversely affected.

For the Telco segment, any obsolete and excess telecommunications inventory is generally processed through its recycling program when it is identified.  However, the Telco segmentWe identified certain inventory that more than likely will not be sold or that the cost will not be recovered or that the cost will not be recovered when it is sold, and had not yet been processed through its recycling program.recycling. Therefore, we have aan obsolete and excess inventory reserve of $0.7$4.1 million at DecemberMarch 31, 2017.  In the three months ended December 31, 2017, we increased the reserve, by $11 thousand.  We also reviewed the cost of inventories against estimated market value and recorded a lower of cost or net realizable value write-off of $12 thousand for inventories that have a cost in excess of estimated net realizable value.2023. If actual market conditions differ from those projected by management, this could have a material impact on our gross margin and inventory balances based on additional write-downs to net realizable value or a benefit from inventories previously written down.

Inbound freight charges are included in cost of sales. Purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs, internal transfer costs and other inventory expenditures are included in operating expenses, since the amounts involved are not considered material.

Accounts Receivable Valuation

Management judgments and estimates are made in connection with establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts. Specifically, we analyze the aging of accounts receivable balances, historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in our customer payment terms.  Significant changes in customer concentration or payment terms, deterioration of customer credit-worthiness, or weakening in economic trends could have a significant impact on the collectability of receivables and our operating results.  If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, an additional provision to the allowance for doubtful accounts may be required.  The reserve for bad debts was $0.2 million at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017.   At December 31, 2017, accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, was $5.3 million.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price of acquisitions over the acquisition date fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired.  Goodwill is not amortized and is tested at least annually for impairment.  We perform our annual analysis during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year and in any other period in which indicators of impairment warrant additional analysis.  Goodwill is evaluated for impairment by first comparing our estimate of the fair value of each reporting unit, or operating segment, with the reporting unit’s carrying value, including goodwill.  Our reporting units for purposes of the goodwill impairment calculation are the Cable TV operating segment and the Telco operating segment.

Management utilizes a discounted cash flow analysis to determine the estimated fair value of each reporting unit.  Significant judgments and assumptions including the discount rate, anticipated revenue growth rate, gross margins

17
and operating expenses are inherent in these fair value estimates.  As a result, actual results may differ from the estimates utilized in our discounted cash flow analysis.  The use of alternate judgments and/or assumptions could result in the recognition of different levels of impairment charges in the financial statements.  If the carrying value of one of the reporting units exceeds its fair value, a computation of the implied fair value of goodwill would then be compared to its related carrying value. If the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill, an impairment loss would be recognized in the amount of the excess.  If an impairment charge is incurred, it would negatively impact our results of operations and financial position.

We performed our annual impairment test for both reporting units in the fourth quarter of 2017 and determined that the fair value of our reporting units exceeded their carrying values.  Therefore, no impairment existed as of September 30, 2017.

We did not record a goodwill impairment for either of our two reporting units in the three year period ended September 30, 2017.  However, we are implementing strategic plans to help prevent impairment charges in the future, which include the restructuring and expansion of the sales organization in the Telco segment to increase the volume of sales activity, and reducing inventory levels in both the Cable TV and Telco segments.  Although we do not anticipate a future impairment charge, certain events could occur that might adversely affect the reported value of goodwill.  Such events could include, but are not limited to, economic or competitive conditions, a significant change in technology, the economic condition of the customers and industries we serve, a significant decline in the real estate markets we operate in, a material negative change in the relationships with one or morecomponent of our significant customers or equipment suppliers, failure to successfully implement our plan to restructure and expand the Telco sales organization, and failure to reduce inventory levels within the Cable TV or Telco segments.  If our judgments and assumptions change as a resultcost of the occurrence of any of these events or other events that we do not currently anticipate, our expectations as to future results and our estimate of the implied fair value of each reporting unit also may change.

sales.
Intangibles

Intangible assets that have finite useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3 years toof 10 years. Intangible assets are also tested for impairment when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. As of March 31, 2023, there were no indicators of impairment present.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities

We finance our operations primarily through cash flows provided by operations, and we have a bank line of credit of up to $7.0 million.  During the three months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2017, we generated $0.2 million of2023, cash flows from operations.  The cashprovided by operations was $0.5 million. Cash flows from operations was favorably impacted by $0.3 million from a net decrease in accounts receivable.  The cash flows operations waswere negatively impacted by $0.2 million from a net increase in inventoryloss of $2.7 million, offset by net cash provided by working capital of $2.3 million and $0.2 million from a net decrease in accrued expenses, which primarily resulted from the first annual paymentnon-cash adjustments of the earn-out related to the acquisition of Triton Miami, Inc.

At March 31, 2023 we madehad $4.0 million in cash and equivalents and restricted cash.
The Company has an overall capacity to factor its accounts receivable of $19.0 million for working capital needs. At March 31, 2023, the Company had $7.0 million utilized under the receivables purchase facilities, leaving $12.0 million available to the Company to factor additional receivables generated from future sales.

The Company has experienced a number of quarters with negative operating results over the recent history. Should those continue, we would need to obtain other funding arrangements to supplement working capital, which could include the filing of a registration statement for the sale of equity, and the issuance of debt, either convertible or non-convertible, which might or might not include the issuance of warrants or shares associated with the transaction.
Subsequent Event: Mast Hill Fund Investments
