Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Quarterly Period ended September 30,
2019
Note 1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
We were incorporated under the laws of the
State of Minnesota on July 19, 1988. We were previously engaged in the medical device business. In mid-2011, HDI’s board of directors determined to
pursue a change in strategic direction. In August 2011, we sold our medical device inventory, subleased our office and manufacturing
facility, and entered into a limited license agreement with a company owned by Jay Cohn, a founder and a director of the Company.
In September 2011, we formed HDI Plastics Inc. (“HDIP”), a wholly owned-subsidiary, entered into a new lease agreement,
purchased selected manufacturing assets from Compass Bank and Cycled Plastics and began engaging in the business of plastics reprocessing
in Austin, TX. Demand for reprocessed plastic is growing, and HDIP has the systems and infrastructure for collecting and processing
post-consumer and post-industrial plastic waste into pellets to be resold to domestic manufacturing companies.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary (HDI Plastics, Inc.), after elimination of all intercompany
accounts, transactions, and profits.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid
investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains
cash in financial institutions. The balances, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.
Accounts Receivable
The Company reviews customers’ credit
history before extending unsecured credit. Accounts receivable are reviewed to determine the need for an allowance for amounts
that may become uncollectible in the future. The necessity of an allowance is based on management’s review of accounts receivable
balances and historic write-offs. Invoice terms can vary from at date of shipment to net 30 days. The Company does not accrue
interest on past due accounts receivable. The Company writes off receivables when they are deemed uncollectible after all collection
attempts have failed. The Company has determined that an allowance for doubtful accounts is not necessary as of September 30,
2019.
Inventory
Inventories are valued at the lower of
cost or market with cost based upon the average cost of raw material purchased which includes an allocation of manufacturing overhead
if further processing has been done. Typically, the Company holds material for less than 45 days. The nature of the Company’s
inventory does not result in obsolescence of either processed or unprocessed material. Inventory on hand at the end of the period
is reviewed to determine the need for a reserve for or write-off and dispose of any material which is not useable. The need for
a reserve is based on management’s review of inventories on hand compared to estimated future usage and sales. As of September
30, 2019, there was no reserve for obsolete inventory.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost.
Improvements are capitalized, while repair and maintenance costs are charged to operations when incurred. Depreciation is
computed principally using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives for leasehold improvements are the shorter of
the lease term or estimated useful life and 3 to 5 years for furniture and processing equipment, and computer equipment.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments
are recorded on its balance sheet. The carrying amounts for cash, accounts receivable, note receivable, accounts payable, and accrued
expenses approximate fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The lease obligation
and subordinated debt approximates fair value since this debt was recently obtained.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company will record impairment losses
on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted future cash flows estimated
to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amount. To date, no such losses have been recognized.
Revenue Recognition
Plastics - Beginning October 2011, HDI
Plastics began selling finished goods to manufacturers in the form of pelletized resin and clean shredded and ground plastics
material. These sales are recorded as revenue at the time the product is shipped and invoiced to the customer. The Company
also engages in “toll” processing of customer-owned material for a service fee. These service fees are recorded
as plastic processing revenue at the time the product is shipped back to the customer. In addition, the Company
engages in brokerage transactions of plastic material where goods are delivered to a customer without HDIP taking physical
possession of the product at its processing facility, although HDIP assumes ownership of the material. The net profit from
“brokerage” transactions is recorded as revenue at the time it is shipped to the customer and invoiced. Brokered
sales are recorded as revenue net of the cost of the brokered material.
Royalties – After the sale of the
medical device business in August 2011, the Company is receiving a minor amount of royalty income in connection with the license
agreement. This income is being recorded as revenue when a sale is made by CPC to a 3rd party purchaser.
Shipping and Handling Costs
The Company records all amounts billed to
customers in a sales transaction related to shipping and handling as sales. The Company records costs related to shipping and handling
in cost of sales.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes by
following an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred tax assets
and liabilities arise from the difference between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the financial
statements. Deferred tax amounts are determined using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the taxes will actually be paid
or refunds received, as provided under currently enacted tax law. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce
deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense or benefit is the tax payable or refundable, respectively,
for the period plus or minus the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities during the period. In accordance with the guidance,
the Company has adopted a policy under which, if required to be recognized in the future, interest related to the underpayment
of income taxes will be classified as a component of interest expense and any related penalties will be classified in operating
expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.
The Company recognizes a financial statement
benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more-likely-than-not sustain the position
following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the consolidated financial
statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with
the relevant tax authority.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed
using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income (loss) per share includes
the dilutive effect of common shares potentially issuable upon the exercise of stock options, warrants, or the conversion of preferred
stock.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company regularly grants options to
individuals under various plans. The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made
to employees and directors on a straight-line basis over the respective vesting period of the awards. The compensation expense
for the Company's stock-based payments is based on estimated fair values determined at the time of the grant of the portion of
stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest.
The Company estimates the fair value of
stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This option pricing model involves
a number of assumptions, including the expected term of the stock options, the volatility of the public market price for the Company's
common stock and interest rates.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) includes net
income (loss) and items defined as other comprehensive income (loss). Items defined as other comprehensive income (loss) include
items such as foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on certain marketable securities. For the
nine month period ended September 30, 2019, there were no adjustments to net income (loss) to arrive at comprehensive income (loss).
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There were no new accounting standards
issued or effective during the quarterly period ended September 30, 2019 that had, or are expected to have a material impact on
the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
Note 2. Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have
been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, assuming the Company
will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course
of business. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise the required additional capital or
debt financing to meet short-term needs to relocate our plastics processing facility to a new site and then restart the facility
which would include hiring production works.
Note 3. Inventory
Raw materials consist of the plastics that
arrive at the processing facility that are sorted and staged in the warehouse as bales or in bins. The value of raw material is
based on weight and volume and the average cost of purchasing. Finished goods are processed into pellet or regrind form and stored
in gaylords. The inventory value of finished goods is based on weight and the cost to convert using a standard labor and overhead
rate.
4. Subsequent Events
None.
