NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

 

NOTE 1 — BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emerson Radio Corp. and its subsidiaries (“Emerson” or the “Company”). The Company designs, sources, imports and markets certain houseware and consumer electronic products, and licenses the Company’s trademarks for a variety of products.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position as of  June 30, 2024 and the results of operations for the three month periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the condensed consolidated financial statements not misleading have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes; actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and accordingly do not include all of the disclosures normally made in the Company’s annual condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended  March 31, 2024 (“fiscal 2024”), included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2024.

 

The results of operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any other condensed period or for the full year ending March 31, 2025 (“fiscal 2025”).

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

 

The following Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) which relate to or could relate to the Company as concerns the Company’s normal ongoing operations or the industry in which the Company operates.

 

Accounting Standards Update 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (Issued October 2023)

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-07") to update reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

 Sales to customers and related cost of sales are primarily recognized at the point in time when control of goods transfers to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue at the time title passes to the customer as this is when the Company satisfies its performance obligation under the contracts with its customers. Control is considered to be transferred when the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of that good. Under the Direct Import Program, title passes in the country of origin when the goods are passed over the rail of the customer’s vessel. Under the Domestic Program, title passes primarily at the time of shipment. Estimates for future expected returns are based upon historical return rates and netted against revenues.

Table of Contents

 

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods. Revenue is recorded net of customer discounts, promotional allowances, volume rebates and similar charges. When the Company offers the right to return product, historical experience is utilized to establish a liability for the estimate of expected returns. Sales and other tax amounts collected from customers for remittance to governmental authorities are excluded from revenue.

 

Management must make estimates of potential future product returns related to current period product revenue. Management analyzes historical returns, current economic trends and changes in customer demand for the Company’s products when evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for sales returns. Management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the sales return reserves in any accounting period. Additional reserves may be required if actual sales returns increase above the historical return rates. Conversely, the sales return reserve could be decreased if the actual return rates are less than the historical return rates, which were used to establish the reserve.

 

Sales allowances, marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives which are provided to retailers and distributors are accounted for on an accrual basis as a reduction to net revenues in the period in which the related sales are recognized in accordance with ASC topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”).

 

At the time of sale, the Company reduces recognized gross revenue by allowances to cover, in addition to estimated sales returns as required by ASC 606, (i) sales incentives offered to customers that meet the criteria for accrual and (ii) an estimated amount to recognize additional non-offered deductions it anticipates and can reasonably estimate will be taken by customers, which it does not expect to recover. Accruals for the estimated amount of future non-offered deductions are required to be made as contra-revenue items, because that percentage of shipped revenue fails to meet the collectability criteria within ASC 606.

 

If additional marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives are required to promote the Company’s products subsequent to the initial sale, then additional reserves may be required and are accrued for when such support is offered.

 

The Company offers limited warranties for its consumer electronics, comparable to those offered to consumers by the Company’s competitors in the United States. Such warranties typically consist of a one year period for microwaves and refrigerators and a 90 day period for audio products, under which the Company pays for labor and parts, or offers a new or similar unit in exchange for a non-performing unit. The Company estimates its warranty reserve based on sales and its historical warranty claim rates.

 

Licensing: In addition to the distribution of products, the Company grants licenses for the right to access the Company’s intellectual property, specifically the Company’s trademarks, for a stated term for the manufacture and/or sale of consumer electronics and other products under agreements which require payment of either (i) a non-refundable minimum guaranteed royalty or, (ii) the greater of (a) the actual royalties due (based on a contractual calculation, normally comprised of actual product sales by the licensee multiplied by a stated royalty rate, or “Sales Royalties”) or (b) a minimum guaranteed royalty amount. In the case of the foregoing clause (i), such amounts are recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the license agreement. In the case of the foregoing clause (ii), Sales Royalties in excess of guaranteed minimums are accounted for as variable fees and are not recognized as revenue until the Company has ascertained that the licensee’s sales of products have exceeded the guaranteed minimum. In effect, the Company recognizes the greater of Sales Royalties earned to date or the straight-line amount of minimum guaranteed royalties to date. In the case where a royalty is paid to the Company in advance, the royalty payment is initially recorded as a liability and recognized as revenue as the royalties are deemed to be earned according to the principles outlined above. As of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded deferred revenue of approximately $170,000 as compared to approximately $191,000 as of March 31, 2024 on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. All of the deferred revenue for both periods presented are related to licensing revenue.

NOTE 3 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Outstanding capital stock at June 30, 2024 consisted of common stock and Series A preferred stock. The Series A preferred stock is non-voting, has no dividend preferences and has not been convertible since March 31, 2002; however, it retains a liquidation preference.

 

At June 30, 2024, the Company had no options, warrants or other potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

NOTE 4 — INVENTORY

 

Inventories, which consist primarily of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):

 

		June 30, 2024				March 31, 2024
Finished goods		$	6,120			$	6,953

 

NOTE 5 — INCOME TAXES

 

At June 30, 2024, the Company had $15.7 million of U.S. federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards. These losses do not expire but are limited to utilization of 80% of taxable income in any one year. At June 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $15.8 million of U.S. state NOL carry forwards. The tax benefits related to these state NOL carry forwards and future deductible temporary differences are recorded to the extent management believes it is more likely than not that such benefits will be realized.

 

The income of foreign subsidiaries before taxes was $272,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to income of foreign subsidiaries before taxes of $302,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2023. 

 

The Company analyzed the future reasonability of recognizing its deferred tax assets at June 30, 2024. As a result, the Company concluded that a 100% valuation allowance of approximately $4,597,000 would be recorded against the assets.

 

Although the Company generated a net operating loss, it recorded income tax expense of approximately $9,000 during the three month period ended June 30, 2024, primarily resulting from state income taxes. During the three month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded income tax expense of approximately $9,000, primarily resulting from state income taxes. After the adoption of ASU 2019-12 “Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”during fiscal 2022, these non-income based state taxes are now reported within selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

The Company is subject to examination and assessment by tax authorities in numerous jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s open tax years for examination for U.S. federal tax are 2017-2024, and for U.S. states’ tax are 2015-2024. Based on the outcome of tax examinations or due to the expiration of statutes of limitations, it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken in previously filed returns may be different from the liabilities that have been recorded for these unrecognized tax benefits. As a result, the Company may be subject to additional tax expense.

 

As of June 30, 2024, the Company is asserting under ASC 740-30 that all of the unremitted earnings of its foreign subsidiaries are indefinitely invested. The Company evaluates this assertion each period based on a number of factors, including the operating plans, budgets, and forecasts for both the Company and its foreign subsidiaries; the long-term and short-term financial requirements in the U.S. and in each foreign jurisdiction; and the tax consequences of any decision to repatriate earnings of foreign subsidiaries to the U.S.

 

As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company had a federal tax liability of approximately $1,202,000 related to the repatriation of the Company’s undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries as required by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company’s short term portion was approximately $534,000 and the long term portion was approximately $668,000.

 

The liability is payable over 8 years. The first five installments were each equal to 8%, the sixth is equal to 15%, the seventh is equal to 20% and the final installment is equal to 25% of the liability. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has paid six of the eight installments. Each installment must be remitted on or before July 15^th of the year in which such installment is due.

NOTE 7 — SHORT TERM DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS

 

As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company held $2.2 million and $19.1 million, respectively, in term deposits. Such term deposits had maturity dates of 90 days or less and, as a result, were classified as cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company held $16.0 million and nil, respectively, in short term investments which had maturity dates greater than 90 days. 

 

NOTE 8 — CONCENTRATION RISK

 

Customer Concentration

 

For the three month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s three largest customers accounted for approximately 86% of the Company’s net revenues, of which Amazon.com ("Amazon") accounted for approximately 38%, Walmart Inc. ("Walmart") accounted for approximately 36% and Grupo Comercial Chedraui SAB de CV ("Chedraui") accounted for approximately 12%. No other customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's net revenues during the period. 

 

For the three month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company’s three largest customers accounted for approximately 88% of the Company’s net revenues, of which Walmart accounted for approximately 43%, Amazon accounted for approximately 28% and Fred Meyer accounted for approximately 17%. No other customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's net revenues during the period.

 

A significant decline in net sales to any of the Company’s key customers would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operation.             

 

Product Concentration

 

For the three month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s gross product sales included microwave ovens, which generated approximately 48%, of the Company’s gross product sales and audio products, which generated approximately 48% of the Company’s gross product sales. No other products accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's gross product sales during the period.

 

For the three month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company’s gross product sales included microwave ovens, which generated approximately 39% of the Company’s gross product sales and audio products, which generated approximately 60% of the Company’s gross product sales. No other products accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's gross product sales during the period.    

   

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

As a percentage of the Company’s total trade accounts receivable, net of specific reserves, the Company’s top three customers accounted for approximately 50%, 21% and 20%, respectively, as of June 30, 2024. No other customers accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's total trade accounts receivable, net of specific reserves, as of such date. As a percentage of the Company’s total trade accounts receivable, net of specific reserves, the Company’s top three customers accounted for approximately 34%, 30% and 25%, respectively, as of March 31, 2024. No other customers accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's total trade accounts receivable, net of specific reserves, as of such date. The Company periodically performs credit evaluations of its customers but generally does not require collateral, and the Company provides for any anticipated credit losses in the financial statements based upon management’s estimates and ongoing reviews of recorded allowances. Due to the high concentration of the Company’s net trade accounts receivables among just two customers, any significant failure by one of these customers to pay the Company the amounts owing against these receivables would result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company maintains its cash accounts with major U.S. and foreign financial institutions. The Company’s cash balances on deposit in the U.S. as of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024 were insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per qualifying bank account in accordance with FDIC rules. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balances in excess of these FDIC-insured limits were approximately $2.5 million and approximately $19.6 million at June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

 

Supplier Concentration

 

During the three month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company procured 100% of its products for resale from its four largest factory suppliers, of which approximately 33% was supplied by its largest supplier and approximately 31%, 21% and 15%, respectively, was supplied by the other three suppliers. During the three month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company procured 100% of its products for resale from its three largest factory suppliers, of which approximately 57% was supplied by its largest supplier and approximately 22% and 21%, respectively, was supplied by the other two suppliers. No other suppliers accounted for greater than 10% for either three month periods ended June 30, 2024 or  June 30, 2023.

NOTE 10 —LEGAL PROCEEDINGS  

 

On October 10, 2023, the US District Court for the District of Delaware granted final judgment in favor of the Company in its trademark infringement lawsuit against air conditioning and heating products provider Emerson Quiet Kool and wholesaler Home Easy (the “defendants”). Among other things, the court order issues an injunction and directs the US Patent and Trademark Office to cancel the defendants’ existing and proposed "Emerson Quiet Kool" trademarks and prohibits defendants from registering or applying to register, or using the same mark or any other mark or name containing the word "Emerson" going forward. The total judgment awarded to the Company has increased from approximately $6.5 million to approximately $10.4 million, inclusive of disgorgement of wrongful profits, attorney's fees and enhanced damages. The aggregate award to the Company also includes the $4.1 million of advanced deposits previously paid to the Company. The $4.1 million of advanced deposits was reduced by approximately $1 million of incurred legal fees. The remaining balance of $3.1 million was released by the Company to other income during the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Like any judgement, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to collect the entire judgement or if it is able to collect, how soon it will be able to do so. The defendants have filed separate bankruptcy petitions in the US Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey, and there is no guarantee that those bankruptcy proceedings will not have any effect on the ability of the Company to collect the judgement. The Company is not currently a party to any other legal proceedings other than litigation matters, in most cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to its business. Management cannot estimate with certainty the Company’s ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to such pending litigation matters. However, management believes, based on its examination of such matters, that the Company’s ultimate liability will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Net product sales — Net product sales for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 were approximately $2.1 million as compared to approximately $1.7 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $0.4 million, or 22.9%. The Company’s sales during the three month period ended June 30, 2024 were highly concentrated among its three largest customers – Amazon, Walmart and Chedraui  – comprising in the aggregate approximately 89% of the Company’s total net product sales. The Company’s sales during the three month period ended June 30, 2023, were highly concentrated among its three largest customers – Walmart, Amazon and Fred Meyer – comprising in the aggregate approximately 92% of the Company’s total net product sales.

 

Net product sales are comprised primarily of the sales of houseware and audio products which bear the Emerson® brand name. Net product sales may be periodically impacted by adjustments made to the Company’s sales allowance and marketing support accrual to record unanticipated customer deductions from accounts receivable or to reduce the accrual by any amounts which were accrued in the past but not taken by customers through deductions from accounts receivable within a certain time period. In the aggregate, these adjustments had the effect of increasing net product sales and operating income by approximately $10,000 and $3,000 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively. The major elements which contributed to the overall increase in net product sales were as follows:

 

i)    Houseware products:      Net sales of houseware products increased approximately $0.4 million, or 62.3%, to approximately $1.1 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to approximately $0.6 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, driven by increased net sales of newly introduced microwave ovens and refrigerators to the market.

 

ii)   Audio products:              Net sales of audio products were essentially flat at approximately $1.0 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to approximately $1.0 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2023. 

 

Business operations — The Company expects to continue to expand its existing distribution channels and to develop and promote new products with retailers in the U.S and Mexico. The Company is also continuing to invest in products and marketing activities to expand its sales through internet and ecommerce channels. These efforts require investments in appropriate human resources, media marketing and development of products in various categories in addition to the traditional home appliances and audio products on which the Company has historically focused. The Company also is continuing its efforts to identify strategic courses of action related to its licensing activities, including seeking new licensing relationships. The Company has engaged each of Leveraged Marketing Corporation of America and Global Licensing Services Pte Limited as an agent to assist in identifying and procuring potential licensees.

 

 

Emerson’s success is dependent on its ability to anticipate and respond to changing consumer demands and trends in a timely manner, as well as expanding into new markets and sourcing new products that are profitable to the Company. Geo-political factors may also affect the Company’s operations and demand for the Company’s products, which are subject to customs requirements and to tariffs and quotas set by governments through mutual agreements and bilateral actions. The Company expects that U.S. tariffs on categories of products that the Company imports from China, and China’s retaliatory tariffs on certain goods imported from the United States, as well as modifications to international trade policy, will continue to affect its product costs going forward. If no mitigation steps are taken, or the mitigation is unsuccessful, the combination of tariffs will result in significantly increased annualized costs to the Company as all of the Company’s products are currently manufactured by suppliers in China. Although the Company is monitoring the trade and political environment and working to mitigate the possible effect of tariffs with its suppliers as well as its customers through pricing and sourcing strategies, the Company cannot be certain how its customers and competitors will react to the actions taken. In addition, heightened tensions between the United States and China over Hong Kong and any resulting retaliatory policies may affect our operations in Hong Kong. At this time the Company is unable to quantify possible effects on its costs arising from the new tariffs, which are expected to increase the Company’s inventory costs and associated costs of sales as tariffs are incurred, and some costs may be passed through to the Company’s customers as product price increases in the future. However, if the Company is unable to successfully pass through the additional costs or otherwise mitigate the effects of these tariffs, or if the higher prices reduce demand for the Company’s products, it will have a negative effect on the Company’s product sales and gross margins.

 

In light of the adverse macroeconomic conditions domestically and internationally, the Company has implemented certain cost-reduction actions intended to reduce expenditures. However, the environment remains uncertain. Demand for the Company’s products remains competitive and requires actions to continue carefully managing inventory. Accordingly, current results and financial condition discussed herein may not be indicative of future operating results and trends.

Legal Proceedings— On October 10, 2023, the US District Court for the District of Delaware granted final judgment in favor of the Company in its trademark infringement lawsuit against air conditioning and heating products provider Emerson Quiet Kool and wholesaler Home Easy (the “defendants”). Among other things, the court order issues an injunction and directs the US Patent and Trademark Office to cancel the defendants’ existing and proposed "Emerson Quiet Kool" trademarks and prohibits defendants from registering or applying to register, or using the same mark or any other mark or name containing the word "Emerson" going forward. The total judgment awarded to the Company has increased from approximately $6.5 million to approximately $10.4 million, inclusive of disgorgement of wrongful profits, attorney's fees and enhanced damages. The aggregate award to the Company also includes the $4.1 million of advanced deposits previously paid to the Company. The $4.1 million of advanced deposits was reduced by approximately $1 million of incurred legal fees. The remaining balance of $3.1 million was released by the Company to other income during the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Like any judgement, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to collect the entire judgement or if it is able to collect, how soon it will be able to do so. The defendants have filed separate bankruptcy petitions in the US Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey, and there is no guarantee that those bankruptcy proceedings will not have any effect on the ability of the Company to collect the judgement. The Company is not currently a party to any other legal proceedings other than litigation matters, in most cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to its business. Management cannot estimate with certainty the Company’s ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to such pending litigation matters. However, management believes, based on its examination of such matters, that the Company’s ultimate liability will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Licensing revenue — Licensing revenue for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 was approximately $69,000 as compared to approximately $77,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of approximately $8,000, or 10.4%. The year-over-year decrease was the result of lost revenue from a terminated licensee in June 2023 of approximately $54,000, partially offset by the increase in revenue from a new licensee of approximately $25,000 and from an existing licensee of approximately $21,000.

 

Net revenues — Net revenues were approximately $2.2 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to approximately $1.8 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, an increase of approximately $0.4 million, or 21.5%. The increase in net revenues can be attributed primarily to the introduction of new models of the Company's houseware products to the marketplace as well as increased demand from the Company's key customers.

 

Cost of sales — Cost of sales increased approximately $0.5 million, or 36.3% to approximately $2.0 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to approximately $1.5 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2023. The increase in absolute terms for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2023 was primarily related to an increase in net product sales, increased carrying costs of inventory and the product mix of sales in the current quarter.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“S,G&A”) — S,G&A was approximately $1.4 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to approximately $1.2 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, an increase of approximately $0.2 million or 18.2%. S,G&A, as a percentage of net revenues, was approximately 64.4% for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to approximately 66.2% for the three month period ended June 30, 2023. Compensation costs increased by approximately $136,000, legal fees increased by approximately $71,000 and audit fees increased by approximately $42,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2023. Compensation costs for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 were approximately $695,000 as compared to approximately $559,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2023. Legal fees for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 were approximately $184,000 as compared to approximately $113,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2023. Audit fees for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 were approximately $66,000 as compared to approximately $24,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2023.

 

Interest income, net — Interest income, net, was approximately $263,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to approximately $294,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of approximately $31,000. The decrease was primarily due to lower levels of cash invested on the Company’s short term investments.

 

Provision for income taxes — For the three month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded income tax expense of approximately $3,000 as compared to nil for the three month period ended June 30, 2023. The Company under the adoption of ASU 2019-12 “Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” incurred non-income based state taxes of approximately $9,000 for both of the three month periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, which are now reported as S,G &A. See “Note 5 – Income Taxes”.

 

Although the Company generated net income during the three months ended June 30, 2024, it has yet to demonstrate the ability to generate net income on a sustained basis in order to realize its deferred tax assets. Therefore, the Company is obligated to record a 100% valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets.

 

Net loss — As a result of the foregoing factors, the Company realized a net loss of approximately $962,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to a net loss of approximately $565,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2023.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.8 million as compared to approximately $19.9 million at March 31, 2024. Cash and cash equivalents includes short term investments in deposits which were classified as cash equivalents of approximately $2.2 million as of June 30, 2024 compared to approximately $19.1 million of such deposits as of March 31, 2024. Working capital decreased to approximately $25.5 million at June 30, 2024 as compared to approximately $26.6 million at March 31, 2024. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $17.0 million was due to an increase in short term deposits of approximately $16.0 million, the net loss generated during the period of approximately $0.9 million, an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of approximately $0.4 million, an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $0.4 million, an increase in prepaid purchases of approximately $0.3 million and an increase in property and equipment of approximately $0.2 million, partially offset by a decrease in inventory of approximately $0.8 million and an increase in accounts payable and other current liabilities of approximately $0.4 million. 

 

Cash Flows

 

Net cash used by operating activities was approximately $0.8 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2024, resulting from the loss generated during the period of approximately $0.9 million, an increase in prepaid and other current assets of approximately $0.4 million, an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $0.4 million, and an increase in prepaid purchases of approximately $0.3 million, partially offset by a decrease in inventory of approximately $0.8 million and an increase in accounts payable and other current liabilities of approximately $0.4 million.

 

Net cash used by investing activities was approximately $16.2 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 due to purchases of short-term investments of approximately $16.0 million and additions to property and equipment of approximately $0.2 million.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $7,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 due to a new copier lease.

 

Sources and Uses of Funds

 

The Company’s principal existing sources of cash are generated from operations and its existing short-term deposits and investments. The Company believes that its existing cash balance and sources of cash will be sufficient to support existing operations over the next 12 months.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of June 30, 2024, the Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined under the rules of the SEC.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

 

The following ASU was issued by the FASB which relate to or could relate to the Company as concerns the Company’s normal ongoing operations or the industry in which the Company operates.

 

Accounting Standards Update 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (Issued October 2023)

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-07") to update reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

(a) Disclosure controls and procedures

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d — 15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Due to the inherent limitations of control systems, not all misstatements may be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Our controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the above objectives have been met.

 

The Company’s management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of June 30, 2024, are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

The Company is, and from time to time may become, involved in legal proceedings, in most cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to its business. Management cannot estimate with certainty the Company’s ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to any such pending litigation matters. However, management believes, based on its examination of such matters, that the Company is not currently involved in any legal proceedings that, if determined adversely to the Company, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Information relating to our ongoing legal proceedings is described in Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Note 1 - Background and Basis of Presentation	15 Months Ended

Notes to Financial Statements
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block]	NOTE 1 — BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION   The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emerson Radio Corp. and its subsidiaries (“Emerson” or the “Company”). The Company designs, sources, imports and markets certain houseware and consumer electronic products, and licenses the Company’s trademarks for a variety of products.   The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position as of  June 30, 2024 and the results of operations for the three month periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the condensed consolidated financial statements not misleading have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes; actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and accordingly do not include all of the disclosures normally made in the Company’s annual condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended  March 31, 2024 (“fiscal 2024”), included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2024.   The results of operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any other condensed period or for the full year ending March 31, 2025 (“fiscal 2025”).   Recent Accounting Pronouncement   The following Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) which relate to or could relate to the Company as concerns the Company’s normal ongoing operations or the industry in which the Company operates.   Accounting Standards Update 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (Issued October 2023)   In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-07") to update reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.   Revenue Recognition    Sales to customers and related cost of sales are primarily recognized at the point in time when control of goods transfers to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue at the time title passes to the customer as this is when the Company satisfies its performance obligation under the contracts with its customers. Control is considered to be transferred when the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of that good. Under the Direct Import Program, title passes in the country of origin when the goods are passed over the rail of the customer’s vessel. Under the Domestic Program, title passes primarily at the time of shipment. Estimates for future expected returns are based upon historical return rates and netted against revenues.   Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods. Revenue is recorded net of customer discounts, promotional allowances, volume rebates and similar charges. When the Company offers the right to return product, historical experience is utilized to establish a liability for the estimate of expected returns. Sales and other tax amounts collected from customers for remittance to governmental authorities are excluded from revenue.   Management must make estimates of potential future product returns related to current period product revenue. Management analyzes historical returns, current economic trends and changes in customer demand for the Company’s products when evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for sales returns. Management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the sales return reserves in any accounting period. Additional reserves may be required if actual sales returns increase above the historical return rates. Conversely, the sales return reserve could be decreased if the actual return rates are less than the historical return rates, which were used to establish the reserve.   Sales allowances, marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives which are provided to retailers and distributors are accounted for on an accrual basis as a reduction to net revenues in the period in which the related sales are recognized in accordance with ASC topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”).   At the time of sale, the Company reduces recognized gross revenue by allowances to cover, in addition to estimated sales returns as required by ASC 606, (i) sales incentives offered to customers that meet the criteria for accrual and (ii) an estimated amount to recognize additional non-offered deductions it anticipates and can reasonably estimate will be taken by customers, which it does not expect to recover. Accruals for the estimated amount of future non-offered deductions are required to be made as contra-revenue items, because that percentage of shipped revenue fails to meet the collectability criteria within ASC 606.   If additional marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives are required to promote the Company’s products subsequent to the initial sale, then additional reserves may be required and are accrued for when such support is offered.   The Company offers limited warranties for its consumer electronics, comparable to those offered to consumers by the Company’s competitors in the United States. Such warranties typically consist of a one year period for microwaves and refrigerators and a 90 day period for audio products, under which the Company pays for labor and parts, or offers a new or similar unit in exchange for a non-performing unit. The Company estimates its warranty reserve based on sales and its historical warranty claim rates.   Licensing: In addition to the distribution of products, the Company grants licenses for the right to access the Company’s intellectual property, specifically the Company’s trademarks, for a stated term for the manufacture and/or sale of consumer electronics and other products under agreements which require payment of either (i) a non-refundable minimum guaranteed royalty or, (ii) the greater of (a) the actual royalties due (based on a contractual calculation, normally comprised of actual product sales by the licensee multiplied by a stated royalty rate, or “Sales Royalties”) or (b) a minimum guaranteed royalty amount. In the case of the foregoing clause (i), such amounts are recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the license agreement. In the case of the foregoing clause (ii), Sales Royalties in excess of guaranteed minimums are accounted for as variable fees and are not recognized as revenue until the Company has ascertained that the licensee’s sales of products have exceeded the guaranteed minimum. In effect, the Company recognizes the greater of Sales Royalties earned to date or the straight-line amount of minimum guaranteed royalties to date. In the case where a royalty is paid to the Company in advance, the royalty payment is initially recorded as a liability and recognized as revenue as the royalties are deemed to be earned according to the principles outlined above. As of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded deferred revenue of approximately $170,000 as compared to approximately $191,000 as of March 31, 2024 on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. All of the deferred revenue for both periods presented are related to licensing revenue.   Disaggregation of Revenue       Three months ended June 30, Disaggregation of revenue (in 000's)   2024     2023                     Net revenues by type:                 Net product sales   $ 2,129     $ 1,732   Licensing revenue     69       77   Net revenues     2,198       1,809                     Net revenues by customers: (over 10%)                 Amazon.com   $ 984     $ 569   Walmart     848       819   Chedraui     264       —   Total     2,096       1,388

Notes to Financial Statements
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]	NOTE 5 — INCOME TAXES   At June 30, 2024, the Company had $15.7 million of U.S. federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards. These losses do not expire but are limited to utilization of 80% of taxable income in any one year. At June 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $15.8 million of U.S. state NOL carry forwards. The tax benefits related to these state NOL carry forwards and future deductible temporary differences are recorded to the extent management believes it is more likely than not that such benefits will be realized.   The income of foreign subsidiaries before taxes was $272,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to income of foreign subsidiaries before taxes of $302,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2023.    The Company analyzed the future reasonability of recognizing its deferred tax assets at June 30, 2024. As a result, the Company concluded that a 100% valuation allowance of approximately $4,597,000 would be recorded against the assets.   Although the Company generated a net operating loss, it recorded income tax expense of approximately $9,000 during the three month period ended June 30, 2024, primarily resulting from state income taxes. During the three month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded income tax expense of approximately $9,000, primarily resulting from state income taxes. After the adoption of ASU 2019-12 “Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”during fiscal 2022, these non-income based state taxes are now reported within selling, general and administrative expenses.   The Company is subject to examination and assessment by tax authorities in numerous jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s open tax years for examination for U.S. federal tax are 2017-2024, and for U.S. states’ tax are 2015-2024. Based on the outcome of tax examinations or due to the expiration of statutes of limitations, it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken in previously filed returns may be different from the liabilities that have been recorded for these unrecognized tax benefits. As a result, the Company may be subject to additional tax expense.   As of June 30, 2024, the Company is asserting under ASC 740-30 that all of the unremitted earnings of its foreign subsidiaries are indefinitely invested. The Company evaluates this assertion each period based on a number of factors, including the operating plans, budgets, and forecasts for both the Company and its foreign subsidiaries; the long-term and short-term financial requirements in the U.S. and in each foreign jurisdiction; and the tax consequences of any decision to repatriate earnings of foreign subsidiaries to the U.S.   As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company had a federal tax liability of approximately $1,202,000 related to the repatriation of the Company’s undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries as required by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company’s short term portion was approximately $534,000 and the long term portion was approximately $668,000.   The liability is payable over 8 years. The first five installments were each equal to 8%, the sixth is equal to 15%, the seventh is equal to 20% and the final installment is equal to 25% of the liability. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has paid six of the eight installments. Each installment must be remitted on or before July 15th of the year in which such installment is due.

No other customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's net revenues during the period.    For the three month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company’s three largest customers accounted for approximately 88% of the Company’s net revenues, of which Walmart accounted for approximately 43%, Amazon accounted for approximately 28% and Fred Meyer accounted for approximately 17%. No other customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's net revenues during the period.   A significant decline in net sales to any of the Company’s key customers would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operation.                Product Concentration   For the three month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s gross product sales included microwave ovens, which generated approximately 48%, of the Company’s gross product sales and audio products, which generated approximately 48% of the Company’s gross product sales. No other products accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's gross product sales during the period.   For the three month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company’s gross product sales included microwave ovens, which generated approximately 39% of the Company’s gross product sales and audio products, which generated approximately 60% of the Company’s gross product sales. No other products accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's gross product sales during the period.         Concentrations of Credit Risk   As a percentage of the Company’s total trade accounts receivable, net of specific reserves, the Company’s top three customers accounted for approximately 50%, 21% and 20%, respectively, as of June 30, 2024. No other customers accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's total trade accounts receivable, net of specific reserves, as of such date. As a percentage of the Company’s total trade accounts receivable, net of specific reserves, the Company’s top three customers accounted for approximately 34%, 30% and 25%, respectively, as of March 31, 2024. No other customers accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's total trade accounts receivable, net of specific reserves, as of such date. The Company periodically performs credit evaluations of its customers but generally does not require collateral, and the Company provides for any anticipated credit losses in the financial statements based upon management’s estimates and ongoing reviews of recorded allowances. Due to the high concentration of the Company’s net trade accounts receivables among just two customers, any significant failure by one of these customers to pay the Company the amounts owing against these receivables would result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.   The Company maintains its cash accounts with major U.S. and foreign financial institutions. The Company’s cash balances on deposit in the U.S. as of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024 were insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per qualifying bank account in accordance with FDIC rules. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balances in excess of these FDIC-insured limits were approximately $2.5 million and approximately $19.6 million at June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.   Supplier Concentration   During the three month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company procured 100% of its products for resale from its four largest factory suppliers, of which approximately 33% was supplied by its largest supplier and approximately 31%, 21% and 15%, respectively, was supplied by the other three suppliers. During the three month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company procured 100% of its products for resale from its three largest factory suppliers, of which approximately 57% was supplied by its largest supplier and approximately 22% and 21%, respectively, was supplied by the other two suppliers. No other suppliers accounted for greater than 10% for either three month periods ended June 30, 2024 or  June 30, 2023.

Legal Matters and Contingencies [Text Block]	NOTE 10 —LEGAL PROCEEDINGS     On October 10, 2023, the US District Court for the District of Delaware granted final judgment in favor of the Company in its trademark infringement lawsuit against air conditioning and heating products provider Emerson Quiet Kool and wholesaler Home Easy (the “defendants”). Among other things, the court order issues an injunction and directs the US Patent and Trademark Office to cancel the defendants’ existing and proposed "Emerson Quiet Kool" trademarks and prohibits defendants from registering or applying to register, or using the same mark or any other mark or name containing the word "Emerson" going forward. The total judgment awarded to the Company has increased from approximately $6.5 million to approximately $10.4 million, inclusive of disgorgement of wrongful profits, attorney's fees and enhanced damages. The aggregate award to the Company also includes the $4.1 million of advanced deposits previously paid to the Company. The $4.1 million of advanced deposits was reduced by approximately $1 million of incurred legal fees. The remaining balance of $3.1 million was released by the Company to other income during the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Like any judgement, there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to collect the entire judgement or if it is able to collect, how soon it will be able to do so. The defendants have filed separate bankruptcy petitions in the US Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey, and there is no guarantee that those bankruptcy proceedings will not have any effect on the ability of the Company to collect the judgement. The Company is not currently a party to any other legal proceedings other than litigation matters, in most cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to its business. Management cannot estimate with certainty the Company’s ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to such pending litigation matters. However, management believes, based on its examination of such matters, that the Company’s ultimate liability will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	15 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]	The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emerson Radio Corp. and its subsidiaries (“Emerson” or the “Company”). The Company designs, sources, imports and markets certain houseware and consumer electronic products, and licenses the Company’s trademarks for a variety of products.   The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position as of  June 30, 2024 and the results of operations for the three month periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the condensed consolidated financial statements not misleading have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes; actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and accordingly do not include all of the disclosures normally made in the Company’s annual condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended  March 31, 2024 (“fiscal 2024”), included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2024.   The results of operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any other condensed period or for the full year ending March 31, 2025 (“fiscal 2025”).
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Recent Accounting Pronouncement   The following Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) which relate to or could relate to the Company as concerns the Company’s normal ongoing operations or the industry in which the Company operates.   Accounting Standards Update 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (Issued October 2023)   In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): "Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-07") to update reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Revenue [Policy Text Block]	Revenue Recognition    Sales to customers and related cost of sales are primarily recognized at the point in time when control of goods transfers to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue at the time title passes to the customer as this is when the Company satisfies its performance obligation under the contracts with its customers. Control is considered to be transferred when the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of that good. Under the Direct Import Program, title passes in the country of origin when the goods are passed over the rail of the customer’s vessel. Under the Domestic Program, title passes primarily at the time of shipment. Estimates for future expected returns are based upon historical return rates and netted against revenues.   Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods. Revenue is recorded net of customer discounts, promotional allowances, volume rebates and similar charges. When the Company offers the right to return product, historical experience is utilized to establish a liability for the estimate of expected returns. Sales and other tax amounts collected from customers for remittance to governmental authorities are excluded from revenue.   Management must make estimates of potential future product returns related to current period product revenue. Management analyzes historical returns, current economic trends and changes in customer demand for the Company’s products when evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for sales returns. Management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the sales return reserves in any accounting period. Additional reserves may be required if actual sales returns increase above the historical return rates. Conversely, the sales return reserve could be decreased if the actual return rates are less than the historical return rates, which were used to establish the reserve.   Sales allowances, marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives which are provided to retailers and distributors are accounted for on an accrual basis as a reduction to net revenues in the period in which the related sales are recognized in accordance with ASC topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”).   At the time of sale, the Company reduces recognized gross revenue by allowances to cover, in addition to estimated sales returns as required by ASC 606, (i) sales incentives offered to customers that meet the criteria for accrual and (ii) an estimated amount to recognize additional non-offered deductions it anticipates and can reasonably estimate will be taken by customers, which it does not expect to recover. Accruals for the estimated amount of future non-offered deductions are required to be made as contra-revenue items, because that percentage of shipped revenue fails to meet the collectability criteria within ASC 606.   If additional marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives are required to promote the Company’s products subsequent to the initial sale, then additional reserves may be required and are accrued for when such support is offered.   The Company offers limited warranties for its consumer electronics, comparable to those offered to consumers by the Company’s competitors in the United States. Such warranties typically consist of a one year period for microwaves and refrigerators and a 90 day period for audio products, under which the Company pays for labor and parts, or offers a new or similar unit in exchange for a non-performing unit. The Company estimates its warranty reserve based on sales and its historical warranty claim rates.   Licensing: In addition to the distribution of products, the Company grants licenses for the right to access the Company’s intellectual property, specifically the Company’s trademarks, for a stated term for the manufacture and/or sale of consumer electronics and other products under agreements which require payment of either (i) a non-refundable minimum guaranteed royalty or, (ii) the greater of (a) the actual royalties due (based on a contractual calculation, normally comprised of actual product sales by the licensee multiplied by a stated royalty rate, or “Sales Royalties”) or (b) a minimum guaranteed royalty amount. In the case of the foregoing clause (i), such amounts are recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the license agreement. In the case of the foregoing clause (ii), Sales Royalties in excess of guaranteed minimums are accounted for as variable fees and are not recognized as revenue until the Company has ascertained that the licensee’s sales of products have exceeded the guaranteed minimum. In effect, the Company recognizes the greater of Sales Royalties earned to date or the straight-line amount of minimum guaranteed royalties to date. In the case where a royalty is paid to the Company in advance, the royalty payment is initially recorded as a liability and recognized as revenue as the royalties are deemed to be earned according to the principles outlined above. As of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded deferred revenue of approximately $170,000 as compared to approximately $191,000 as of March 31, 2024 on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. All of the deferred revenue for both periods presented are related to licensing revenue.   Disaggregation of Revenue       Three months ended June 30, Disaggregation of revenue (in 000's)   2024     2023                     Net revenues by type:                 Net product sales   $ 2,129     $ 1,732   Licensing revenue     69       77   Net revenues     2,198       1,809                     Net revenues by customers: (over 10%)                 Amazon.com   $ 984     $ 569   Walmart     848       819   Chedraui     264       —   Total     2,096       1,388
