Note 8. Deferred Revenue

In February,revenue as of November 30, 2018 and May 31, 2018 represent advance payments from a new customer entered into a contract with Greystone to purchase plasticsplastic pallets with shipments occurring from May, 2018 through about August,expected to be complete by December 30, 2018. The customer prepaid $4,595,034 to provide funding to Greystone for procuring raw materials to produce the pallets. Revenue will be recognized by Greystonerecognizes revenue as plastic pallets are shipped to the customer. Recognized revenue totaled $3,381,345 during the six months ended November 30, 2018.

On June 1, 2018, Greystone adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), as amended, using the retrospective method. Greystone determined that there was no cumulative effect adjustment to the Consolidated Financial Statements and the adoption of the new standard did not requireany adjustments to Greystone’s consolidated financial statements for prior periods. Under the guidance of the new standard, revenue is recognized at the time a good or service is transferred to a customer and the customer obtains control of that good or receives the service performed. Sales arrangements with customers are short-term in nature involving single performance obligations related to the delivery of goods and generally provide for transfer of control at the time of shipment. In limited circumstances, where acceptance of the goods is subject to approval by the customer, revenue is recognized upon approval by the customer unless, historically, there have been insignificant rejections of goods by the customer. Contract liabilities associated with sales arrangements primarily relate to deferred revenue on prepaid sales of goods. Greystone generally permits returns of product due to defects; however, product returns are historically insignificant.

Note 9. Fair ValueThe amount of Financial Instrumentsrevenue recognized reflects the consideration to which Greystone expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for its products. The following steps are applied in determining the amount and timing of revenue recognition:

Greystone’s principal product is plastic pallets produced from recycled plastic resin. Sales are primarily to customers in the continental United States of America. International sales are made to customers in Canada and Mexico which totaled approximately $296,000 and $474,000 in fiscal years 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Greystone’s customers include stocking and non-stocking distributors and direct sales to end-user customers. Sales to Greystone’s three largest customers, which are end-users, totaled approximately 84% and 73% of sales in fiscal years 2019 and 2018, respectively. Sales to distributors totaled approximately 14% and 23% of sales in fiscal years 2019 and 2018, respectively. Combined sales to Greystone’s three largest customers and distributors totaled approximately 98% and 96% of sales in fiscal years 2019 and 2018, respectively. The third large customer was a new addition during the last quarter of fiscal year 2018 and had approximately 11% of sales in fiscal year 2019.

The following methods and assumptions are used in estimating the fair-value disclosures for financial instruments:

Debt: The carrying amount of notes with floating rates of interest approximate fair value. Fixed rate notes are valued based on cash flows using estimated rates of comparable notes. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet approximate fair value.

Note 10. Concentrations, Risks and Uncertainties

Greystone derived approximately 76%84% and 67%73% of its total sales from twothree customers in fiscal years 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively. The loss of a material amount of business from one or bothmore of these customers could have a material adverse effect on Greystone.

Greystone purchases damaged pallets from its customers at a price based on the value of the raw material content in the pallet. A majority of these purchases, totaling $1,200,335$814,764 and $1,202,381$1,215,431 in fiscal years 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively, is from one of its major customers.

Robert B. Rosene, Jr., a Greystone director, has provided financing and guarantees on Greystone’s bank debt. As of February 28,November 30, 2018, Greystone is indebted to Mr. Rosene in the amount of $4,469,355$4,467,330 for a note payable due January 15, 2020. There is no assurance that Mr. Rosene will renew the note as of the maturity date.

Note 11. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 14-09”) which creates a comprehensive set of guidelines for the recognition of revenue under the principle: “Recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.” The requirements of ASU 14-09 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017 and will require either retrospective application to each prior period presented or retrospective application with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of adoption. Management believes that the impact of this ASU will not have a material effect on our financial position and results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting StandardsASU 2016-02,Leases (Topic 842), which is intended to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions. The ASU will require organizations (“lessees”) that lease assets with lease terms of more than twelve months to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. In addition, the ASU will require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The effective date of this ASU is for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2018 and interim periods within that year. Greystone is currently reviewingManagement has reviewed Greystone’s leases and determined that the implementation of ASU to assess the potential2016-02 will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 12. Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the President signed into legislation The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Act). The Act changes existing U.S. tax law and includes numerous provisions that will affect Greystone’s business, including income tax accounting, disclosure and tax compliance. As a result of the changes in tax rates as provided in the Act and reassessing deferred income taxes using state income tax rates, Greystone revalued all deferred tax assets and liabilities, and as a result, the deferred taxes at February 28, 2018 decreased $474,100 and the provision for income taxes for the three months ended February 28, 2018 increased by a like amount.

Note 13. Commitments

At February 28,November 30, 2018, Greystone had commitments totaling $702,508$2,241,000 toward the purchase of production equipment. In March,

Certain amounts in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the six months ended November 30, 2017 have been restated to conform to classifications utilized in the six months ended November 30, 2018.

Effective December 31, 2018, Greystone issuedexecuted a sale and leaseback agreement with Yorktown with respect to certain equipment which Greystone acquired during fiscal year 2019 for a total of $968,168. The lease provides for rent of $27,913 for thirty-six months and $7,694 for the following twelve months with an option to purchase order for certain production equipment at a costthe end of approximately $2.3 million.the lease.

Sales

Greystone’s primary focus is to provide quality plastic pallets to its existing customers while continuing its marketing efforts to broaden its customer base. Greystone’s existing customers are primarily located in the United States and engaged in the beverage, pharmaceutical and other industries. Greystone has generated, and plans to continue to generate, interest in its pallets by attending trade shows sponsored by industry segments that would benefit from Greystone’s products. Greystone hopes to gain wider product acceptance by marketing the concept that the widespread use of plastic pallets could greatly reduce the destruction of trees on a worldwide basis. Greystone’s marketing is conducted through contract distributors, its President and other employees.

Personnel

Greystone had approximately 197185 and 158167 full-time employees as of February 28,November 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Sales

Sales for fiscal year 20182019 were $32,073,828$32,939,240 compared to $25,759,823$20,009,177 in fiscal year 20172018 for an increase of $6,314,005.$12,930,063. The increase in pallet sales in fiscal year 20182019 over 20172018 was primarily due to sales growth towith a pallet leasing company, one of Greystone’s major customers. To meet customer demand, Greystone will install a leased injection mold machine with estimated delivery in May, 2018. In March, 2018, Greystone placed an order to purchase another injection molding machine for estimated delivery in November 2018.

Greystone has twothree major customers whichwho accounted for approximately 76%84% and 67%73% of sales in fiscal years 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively. Pallet sales to Greystone’s major customers are generally based on the customers’ needsneed which may vary by period.
