Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements present the balance sheets, statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows of the Company. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).

Liquidity

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business within one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”), Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), our management evaluates whether there are conditions or events, considered in aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

While the Company experienced a loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, of $6.8 million, and had a negative cash flow used in operations, there were several significant one-time / non-recurring items included in the $6.8 million net loss.  These non-recurring items totaled $2.2 million, consisting of $350 thousand in new acquisitions expenses captured in professional fees, and other costs, and $1.8 million for repurchase of RSUs.

The Company received a total of approximately $54.0 million in February 2021 in the following two transactions:

·The Company raised approximately $45.0 million in net proceeds in connection with a registered direct offering of its stock and;  

·The Company raised approximately $9.0 million in net proceeds in connection with an equity line of credit financing arrangement.  

The Company has secured bank financing totaling $9.3 million ($8.3 million in Lines of Credit and $1.0 million in capital expenditures lines of credit availability) of which $5.6 million was unused at September 30, 2021.

The Company plans to continue to generate additional revenue (and improve cash flows from operations) partly from the acquisitions of three operating companies which closed in May 2021 and October 2021 combined with improved gross profit performance from the existing operating companies.

Based on the capital raise as indicated above and management’s plans to improve cash flows from operations, management believes the Company has sufficient working capital to satisfy the Company’s estimated liquidity needs for the next 12 months. The Company ended the September 30, 2021, quarter with approximately $5.4 million in cash and working capital of $9.3 million. As of the date of this Report, the Company had approximately $3.5 million in cash. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company paid down liabilities of approximately $13.1 million. In addition, approximately $7.2 million was used to build inventory and for capital expenditures.

However, there is no assurance that management’s plans will be successful due to the current economic climate in the United States and globally.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.  Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of estimates

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  Preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses and related disclosures. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable. In many instances, the Company could have reasonably used different accounting estimates and in other instances changes in the accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. This applies in particular to useful lives of long-lived assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and impairment of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ significantly from our estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company’s future financial

statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected.  The ultimate impact from COVID-19 on the Company’s operations and financial results during 2021 will depend on, among other things, the ultimate severity and scope of the pandemic, the pace at which governmental and private travel restrictions and public concerns about public gatherings will ease, and the speed with which the economy recovers. The Company is not able to fully quantify the impact that these factors will have on the Company’s financial results during 2021 and beyond.  COVID-19 did have a negative impact on the Company’s financial performance in 2020.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, there was no impairment charge related to intangible assets and goodwill.

Cash and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term investments with original maturities of less than 90 days. As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company had no cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company had $0 and $444,845 in restricted cash, respectively, for amounts held in escrow.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of cash, and restricted cash reported in the consolidated statements of cash flows that agrees to the total of those amounts presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Major Customers

The Company had two customers that made up 16% and 18%, respectively, of accounts receivable as of September 30, 2021. The Company had two customers that made up 10% and 8%, respectively, of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2020.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company had one customer that made up 13% and 10% of total revenues, respectively.

Fair value measurements

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)  820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, convertible notes, notes payable and lines of credit. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

The carrying value of long-term debt approximates fair value since the related rates of interest approximate current market rates.  As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no financial assets or liabilities that were required to be fair valued on a recurring basis.

Equity Investments

The Company’s equity investments consist of investment in one private company in which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over their operating and financial activities. This investment is carried at cost as there is no market for the common stock and LLC membership units, accordingly, no quoted market price is available. The investment is tested for impairment, at least annually, and more frequently upon the occurrences of certain events.

The Company has adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-01 and values the investment using the measurement alternative, defined as cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer.

Research and Development

The Company focuses on quality control and development of new products and the improvement of existing products. All cost related to research and development activities are expensed as incurred. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, research and development cost totaled $1,096,333.

Earnings (loss) per shares

The Company presents both basic and diluted net income (loss) per share on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted per share calculations give effect to all potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period, including stock options and warrants, and using the treasury-stock method. If antidilutive, the effect of potentially dilutive shares of common stock is ignored. The only potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the periods presented were the convertible debt, options and warrants.  The following table illustrates the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020:

Note 3 – Leases

The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must discount lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate.

As of September 30, 2021, the future minimum finance and operating lease payments were as follows:

As of October 1, 2020, the American Precision Fabricators, Inc. (“APF”) building lease with Harbor Island Properties, LLC was modified, assignment was transferred to Excel Fabrication, LLC (“Excel”), and Quality Circuit Assembly, Inc. (“QCA”). As part of the modification, the lease was extended through 2037 and the payment terms were amended effective January 15, 2021. As a result of this amendment, the Company remeasured the finance lease liability and recorded an additional $279,287 to the related asset and finance lease liability on the date of the modification.
