In February of 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,Leases “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which provides guidance for accounting for leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to classify leases as either finance or operating leases and to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of the lease classification. The lease classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest rate method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Accounting for lessors remains largely unchanged from current GAAP. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10 “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases” (“ASU 2018-10”) and ASU No. 2018-11 “Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements” (“ASU 2018-11”). ASU 2018-10 provides certain amendments that affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2016-02. ASU 2018-11 allows all entities adopting ASU 2016-02 to choose an additional (and optional) transition method of adoption, under which an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. ASU 2018-11 also allows lessors to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component if certain conditions are met. The Company will adopt the ASUs in the first quarter of 2019 and the Company’s accounting systems will be upgraded to comply with the requirements of the new standard, however, the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2018-02). Under existing U.S. GAAP, the neweffects of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances are recorded as a component of income tax expense in the period in which the law was enacted. When deferred tax balances related to items originally recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are adjusted, certain tax effects become stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to retained earnings (accumulated deficit) for stranded income tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Act). The amendments in this ASU also require certain disclosures about stranded income tax effects. The guidance lessees will be required to recognize so-called right-of-use assets and liabilities for most leases having lease terms of 12 months or more. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption in any period is permitted. The Company has not yet adopted ASU 2018-02 and is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting the applicable guidance on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-09, “Codification Improvements” (“ASU 2018-09”). ASU 2018-09 provides amendments to a wide variety of topics in the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification, which applies to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. The transition and effective date guidance are based on the facts and circumstances of each amendment. Some of the amendments in ASU 2018-09 do not require transition guidance and were effective upon issuance of ASU 2018-09. However, many of the amendments do have transition guidance with effective dates for annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2019 and the interim periods starting thereafter. The Company is15, 2018. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of this updateadopting the applicable guidance, however we do not believe that the adoption of ASU 2018-09 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.statements and related disclosures.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement - Disclosure Framework (Topic 820). The updated guidance improves the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The updated guidance if effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for any removed or modified disclosures. The Company is currently assessing the timing and impact of adopting the updated provisions.

Note 22: Investments

 

The Company has investments in publicly traded equity securities, corporate bonds, state and municipal debt securities, real estate investment trusts, and money markets funds.markets. The investments in securities are classified as available-for-sale securities, and are reported at fair value. Available-for-sale investments in debt securities mature between December 2017August 2018 and November 2048. The Company uses the average cost method to determine the cost of securities sold and the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings. Unrealized gains and losses are excluded from earnings and reported separately as a component of stockholders’ equity. Dividend and interest income are reported as earned.

The Company evaluates all marketable securities for other-than temporary declines in fair value, which are defined as when the cost basis exceeds the fair value for approximately one year. The Company also evaluates the nature of the investment, cause of impairment and number of investments that are in an unrealized position. When an “other-than-temporary” decline is identified, the Company will decrease the cost of the marketable security to the new fair value and recognize a real loss. The investments are periodically evaluated to determine if impairment changes are required. As a result of this standard, management recorded an impairment loss of $23,000 for both the quarter and six-months ended October 31, 2017. As for the corresponding periods last year, management did not need to record a lossany impairment losses for either of the quarter, but did record a $13,000 impairment loss for the six monthsquarters ended OctoberJuly 31, 2016.2018 and July 31, 2017.

The following table shows the investments with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be “other-than-temporarily impaired”, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at OctoberJuly 31, 20172018 and April 30, 2017,2018, respectively.

Municipal Bonds

 

The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in municipal bonds were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. Because the Company has the ability to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at OctoberJuly 31, 2017.2018.

 

Marketable Equity Securities and REITs

 

The Company’s investments in marketable equity securities and REITs consist of a wide variety of companies. Investments in these companies include growth, growth income, and foreign investment objectives. The individual holdings have been evaluated, and due to management’s plan to hold on to these investments for an extended period, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at OctoberJuly 31, 20172018.

Note 76: Retirement Benefit Plan

 

On January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the George Risk Industries, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan is a defined contribution savings plan designed to provide retirement income to eligible employees of the corporation. The Plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(k)401 (k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Matching contributions by the Company of approximately $3,000$2,000 were paid during both the quartersquarter ending OctoberJuly 31, 2018 and 2017, and 2016, respectively. Likewise, the Company paid matching contributions of approximately $5,000 during both the six-month periods ending October 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Note 87: Fair Value Measurements

 

Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (US GAAP) defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and credit risk.

 

US GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The levels of the fair value hierarchy under US GAAP are described below:

 

 Level 1Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
   
 Level 2Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
   
 Level 3Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect our own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

 

Investments and Marketable Securities

 

As of OctoberJuly 31, 2017,2018, our investments consisted of money markets, certificates of deposits (CDs), publicly traded equity securities, real estate investment trusts (REITs) as well as certain state and municipal debt securities and corporate bonds. Our marketable securities are valued using third-party broker statements. The value of the investments is derived from quoted market information. The inputs to the valuation are generally classified as Level 1 given the active market for these securities, however, if an active market does not exist, which is the case for municipal bonds and REITs, the inputs are recorded as Level 2.

 

Fair Value Hierarchy

 

The following table sets forth our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and a non-recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by US GAAP, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached condensed financial statements, and with the Company’s audited financial statements and discussion for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017.2018.

 

Executive Summary

 

The Company’s performance has remained consistentincreased through the first halfquarter, both in comparison to the most recent prior quarter and prior quarter last year. The most recent prior quarter increase is mainly due to traditionally having improved sales when the weather gets warmer. The Company’s products are tied to the housing market and the summertime usually shows an uptick in sales. In comparing the prior-year quarter, management has finally learned more about and gotten proper training to employees for the new computer system. Opportunities include continuing to learn and grow with our new computer system and to continue looking at businesses that might be a good fit to purchase. Also, we have new products that are scheduled to enter the marketplace by the end of the fiscal year and even seeing a bit of growth during the second quarter. This is due to the continuation of our quality USA made products with the ability for customization, our notable customer service, and the purchase of the assets of Labor Saving Devices, Inc. Additionally, impressive performance in the stock market has generated adequate returns on the marketable securities.calendar year. Challenges in the coming months include continuing to learn aboutget product out to customers in a timelier manner and train employees onto fill the new computer software,stockroom with inventory to get back to shipping out core products the same day. This is all with the hopes of getting our facilities running leaner and more lean and profitable than ever before and growing the business.before.

 

Results of Operations

 

 Net sales were $3,089,000 for the quarter ended October 31, 2017, which isshowed a 7.15%52.53% increase from the corresponding quarter last year. Year-to-date net sales were $5,337,000 at October 31, 2017, which is a 3.82% decrease fromover the same period in the prior year. Management believes this is due to many reasons. Last year there were unexpected delays in our production flow due to the implementation of new computer software. Over the last year. The slight variations in sales showsyear, management has worked hard to learn about and train employees on the stability of the Companynew computer system and loyalty of its customer base. Our ongoing commitmentproduction is running much smoother than a year ago. There is still room for improvement and management continues to outstanding customer service and customization of products are a few of the many reasons sales remained relatively constant. Also, new sales are emerging since GRI acquired the assets of the Labor Saving Devices. Direct competition and the inabilitystrive to bring new products to market in a timelier manner are a few of the reasons why management believes sales haven’t grown more.

 Cost of goods sold was 45.84%saw an increase from 48.71% of net sales forin the prior year, to 52.52% in the current quarter, ended October 31, 2017which is just outside of Management’s goal to keep labor and was 44.54% forother manufacturing expenses within the same quarter last year. Year-to-daterange of 45 to 50%. The increased cost of goods sold percentages were 47.05%percentage is a reflection of having increased inventory levels due to the purchase of the assets of Labor Saving Devices and to keep raw materials in stock to accommodate for the current six months and 48.12% for the corresponding six months last year, keeping within the target of less than 50% for both the quarter and year-to-date results.

 Operating expenses were up $27,000have increased when comparing the current year quarter to the same quarter for the prior year, but the percentage in relation to net sales decreased to 24.93% for the quarter and were down $28,000 for the six-months ended OctoberJuly 31, 20172018 as compared to 29.49% for the corresponding periodsquarter last year. These increased costs for the quarter are primarily due to new product development, increased commissions, and training on our new computer software. The Company has been able to keep the operating expenses at less than 30% of net sales for many years;years now; however, the effects of paying for training of the new computer software and currently paying maintenance and support fees on two software platforms has added to these expenses. Management is hopefully that the increased sales of the new product lines will help keep operating expenses down.

The decrease in accounts receivable is directly attributable to the Company’s ability to collect on accounts and to keep past due accounts to a minimum. An analysis of accounts shows that there were only 6.38% that were over 90 days at July 31, 2018.
Inventories increased $389,000 during the current yearquarter as compared to a $62,000 increase last year. The bigger increase is primarily due to the fact that Labor Saving Devices was purchased in October 2017 and there is a need to have more inventory on hand.
At the quarter ended July 31, 2018 there was a $166,000 decrease in prepaid expenses and at July 31, 2017, there was a $63,000 decrease. The current decrease is a result of improved saleshaving raw materials that were previously prepaid for arrive on our dock during the second quarter and collections on accounts receivable taking a bit longer than normal.current quarter.
 
Inventories increased $1,290,000 during the current six-month period as compared to a $286,000 decrease last year, primarily due to the inventory purchased from Labor Saving Devices.

New Product Development

 

The Company and itsits’ engineering department continueperpetually work to develop enhancements to current product lines, develop new products which complement existing products, and look for products that are well suited to our distribution network and manufacturing capabilities. Items currently in various stages of the development process include:

 

A new face plate for our pool alarms is nearing completion. The innovative design is slim in style and will also allow the homeowner to change the plate to match their décor.
 
An updated version of the pool access alarm is currently going through ETLelectrical listing testing. This next-generation model combines our battery operated DPA series with our hard wired 289 series. A variety of installation options will be available through jumper pin settings.
 
The case for our CC-15high voltage current controller (CC-15) is complete and has been submitted to U.L. forreceived UL approval for the US and Canada. ThisThe CC-15 series is 15-amps and will allow us to manufacture several different versions. One iscome in a 15-amp versionvariety of voltage configurations. Some examples that would automatically turn on a whole room of lights. Another is a 220-volt version tothese switches can be used in international markets.for are appliance control, environmental control and lighting systems.
 
We have completed two new low voltage switching devices and they have been introduced into the marketplace. The LVSD is a 2-amp, 12/24-VDC switching device that will power devices such as small motors, fans, sirens, strobes and LED lights. The LEDSD is a 2amp, 12/24-VDC controller with 2.1mm x 5.5mm connectors for use with LED lighting (puck, rope, strip, track and more). It can be used to turn on LED lighting in cabinets, display cases, closets, pantries, etc.
Mold work has been completed on connectors for our EZ-Duct line and these connectors are currently out for ETL. testing. This will allow the raceway line to be ETL Listed for fire rating and high voltage. A new mold design for the cover of our 29-Series terminal switch is also being worked on.
We continue to workWork continues on high security switches. WeThey have a triple biased high security switch design nearly complete and an adjustable magnet design was completed for recessed mounting applications.
 
We continue to researchResearch resumes on the possibilities of fuel level sensing and how that may also serve other agricultural based needs. Several companies from around the world have been looking for ways to secure fuel tanks and trucks. OurTheir emphasis would be in ways to safely monitor fuel levels and report tampering.
 
A new float water sensor is being developed that will monitor water levels in livestock tanks and sump pumps.
 
Wireless technology is a main area of focus for product development. We are consideringlooking into adding wireless technology to some of our current products. A wireless contact switch is in the final stages of development. Also, we are working on wireless versions of our Pool Alarm and environmental sensors that will be easy to install in current construction. We are also concentrating on making products compatible with Wi-Fi, smartphone technology and the increasing popular Z-Wave standard for wireless home automation.
 
An updated versionUpdated versions of our 200-36 &and 4532 series overhead door switch line up is nearing completion with the new aluminum cases presently on order.complete and has been selling well. The modified versions, the 200-36UF and 4532UP,4532UF, are being made as a universal fit switch. This will allow an installer to replace an existing switch without drilling new holes into the cement or adjusting the location. The modified case has an additional mounting hole along with reshaped mounting holes.
Two sizes of our custom power transfer device (PTDC) have been introduced. The PTDC series offers a secure way to channel electrical wiring from the door frame to the door and are used for powering exit bars, locks, electric strikes etc. GRI offers two different end pieces; 0.218” inside diameter and 0.313” inside diameter, which will allow different sizes of wire to be looped through the custom length armored cable.

Other Information

 

In addition to researching developing new products, management is always open to the possibility of acquiring a business or product line that would complement our existing operations. Due to the Company’s strong cash position, management believes this could be achieved without the need for outside financing. The intent is to utilize the equipment, marketing techniques and established customers to deliver new products and increase sales and profits.

 

There are no known seasonal trends with any of GRI’s products, since we sell to distributors and OEM manufacturers. Our products are tied to the housing industry and will fluctuate with building trends.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue“Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The objectiveCustomers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”), which requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of this update ispromised goods or services to provide a robust frameworkcustomers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for addressingthose goods or services. In addition, ASU No. 2014-09 requires disclosures of the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. ASU No. 2014-09 supersedes most existing U.S. GAAP revenue recognition issuesprinciples, and upon its effective date, replaces almost all existing revenue recognition guidance. This updateit permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. ASU No. 2014-09 is effective infor annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and theincluding interim periods within that year.those annual periods. The Company is evaluatinghas adopted ASU No. 2014-09 in the impactfirst quarter of this updatefiscal 2019, which does not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.statements and related disclosures.

 

In February of 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,Leases “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which provides guidance for accounting for leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to classify leases as either finance or operating leases and to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of the lease classification. The lease classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest rate method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Accounting for lessors remains largely unchanged from current GAAP. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10 “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases” (“ASU 2018-10”) and ASU No. 2018-11 “Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements” (“ASU 2018-11”). ASU 2018-10 provides certain amendments that affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2016-02. ASU 2018-11 allows all entities adopting ASU 2016-02 to choose an additional (and optional) transition method of adoption, under which an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. ASU 2018-11 also allows lessors to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component if certain conditions are met. The Company will adopt the ASUs in the first quarter of 2019 and the Company’s accounting systems will be upgraded to comply with the requirements of the new standard, however, the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2018-02). Under existing U.S. GAAP, the neweffects of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances are recorded as a component of income tax expense in the period in which the law was enacted. When deferred tax balances related to items originally recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are adjusted, certain tax effects become stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendments in ASU 2018-02 allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to retained earnings (accumulated deficit) for stranded income tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Act). The amendments in this ASU also require certain disclosures about stranded income tax effects. The guidance lessees will be required to recognize so-called right-of-use assets and liabilities for most leases having lease terms of 12 months or more. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption in any period is permitted. The Company has not yet adopted ASU 2018-02 and is currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting the applicable guidance on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-09, “Codification Improvements” (“ASU 2018-09”). ASU 2018-09 provides amendments to a wide variety of topics in the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification, which applies to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. The transition and effective date guidance are based on the facts and circumstances of each amendment. Some of the amendments in ASU 2018-09 do not require transition guidance and were effective upon issuance of ASU 2018-09. However, many of the amendments do have transition guidance with effective dates for annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2019 and the interim periods starting thereafter. The Company is15, 2018. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of this updateadopting the applicable guidance, however we do not believe that the adoption of ASU 2018-09 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.statements and related disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement - Disclosure Framework (Topic 820). The updated guidance improves the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The updated guidance if effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for any removed or modified disclosures. The Company is currently assessing the timing and impact of adopting the updated provisions.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer (also working as our chief financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of OctoberJuly 31, 2017.2018. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer (also working as our chief financial officer) concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures employed at the Company were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.

 

We have taken measurescontinue to improve our disclosure controlsoperate with a limited number of accounting and procedures.financial personnel. A new accounting professional was hired in October 20172018 to fill the Controller position. Regarding this filing, moreposition Once the controller is hired, training will be required to fulfill disclosure control and procedure responsibilities, including review procedures for key accounting schedules and timely and proper documentation of material transactions and agreements. Until sufficient training has taken place offor this new Controller, we believe this control deficiency represents material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

 

Despite the material weaknesses in financial reporting noted above, we believe that our consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in all material respects.

 

We are committed to the establishment of effective internal controls over financial reporting and will place emphasis on quarterly and year-end closing procedures, timely documentation and internal review of accounting and financial reporting consequences of material contracts and agreements, and enhanced review of all schedules and account analyses by experienced accounting department personnel or independent consultants.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended OctoberJuly 31, 20172018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
