This model is based on the core principle that revenue should be recognized 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.</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"> </div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0">On <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"> September 1, 2018, </div>the Company adopted ASC <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">606</div> for all customer contracts using the modified retrospective method. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements within the scope of ASC <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">606,</div> the Company performs the following <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">five</div> steps: (<div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">1</div>) identify the contracts with a customer; (<div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">2</div>) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (<div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">3</div>) determine the transaction price; (<div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">4</div>) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (<div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">5</div>) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">five</div>-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods it transfers to, or services it performs for, the customer.</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"> </div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0">The adoption of ASC <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">606</div> did <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">not</div> impact the previously reported financial statements in any prior period nor did it result in a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings; and therefore, the adoption of the standard did <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">not</div> impact the Company’s revenue recognition process. Generally, the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied when the customers take possession of the products, which normally occurs at the shipping point or destination depending on the terms of the contracts. The Company’s services are generally sold based upon quotes or contracts with customers that include fixed or determinable price and sales arrangements do <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">not</div> contain any significant financing component for its customers. The Company does <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">not</div> recognize revenue related to product warranties, nor does the Company incur significant contract costs. Customer arrangements do <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">not</div> generate contract assets or liabilities.</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"> </div><div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"></div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0">Changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as a result of adopting ASC <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">606</div> are discussed below:</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"> </div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"><div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;">Revenue Recognition</div> - Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in the contract with a customer, adjusted for any applicable estimates of variable consideration and other factors affecting the transaction price, including noncash consideration, consideration paid or payable to customers and significant financing components. While most of the Company’s revenue is contracted with customers through <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">one</div>-time purchase orders and short-term contracts, the Company does have long-term arrangements with certain customers. Revenue from all customers is recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of a distinct good or service to a customer.</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"> </div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0">Individually promised goods and services in a contract are considered a distinct performance obligation and accounted for separately if the customer can benefit from the individual good or service on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer and the good or service is separately identifiable from other promises in the arrangement. When an arrangement includes multiple performance obligations, the consideration is allocated between the performance obligations in proportion to their estimated standalone selling price. Costs related to products delivered are recognized in the period incurred, unless criteria for capitalization of costs are met. Costs of revenues consist primarily of direct labor, manufacturing overhead, materials and components. The Company does <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">not</div> incur significant upfront costs to obtain a contract. If costs to obtain a contract were to become material, the costs would be recorded as an asset and amortized to expense in a manner consistent with the related recognition of revenue.</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"> </div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0">The Company excludes government assessed and imposed taxes on revenue generating transactions that are invoiced to customers from revenue. The Company includes freight billed to customers in revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of goods sold.</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"> </div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0">The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in accounts receivable on the balance sheet.</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"> </div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"><div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;">Performance Obligations</div> - A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation in proportion to its standalone selling price and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s various performance obligations and the timing or method of revenue recognition are discussed below:</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"> </div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0">The Company sells its products to both distributors and end-users. Each unit of product delivered under a customer order represents a distinct and separate performance obligation as the customer can benefit from each unit on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer and each unit of product is separately identifiable from other products in the arrangement.</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"> </div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0">The transaction price for the Company’s products is the invoiced amount. The Company does <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">not</div> have variable consideration in the form of refunds, credits, rebates, price concessions, pricing incentives or other items impacting transaction price. The purchase order pricing in arrangements with customers is deemed to approximate standalone selling price; therefore, the Company does <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">not</div> need to allocate proceeds on a relative standalone selling price allocation between performance obligations.

The allowance is based on a review of all outstanding amounts on an on-going basis. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considers a customer’s financial condition, credit history, and current economic conditions. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible and have been historically insignificant. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

The Share Increase Amendment was filed with the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"> January 16, 2018 </div>and it became effective the same day. In determining that the Share Increase Amendment was approved by the required vote, votes cast by brokers, banks or other nominees without instruction from the beneficial owners of certain of our outstanding shares were counted in favor of the proposal in accordance with the rules of the New York Stock Exchange that govern how brokers <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"> may </div>cast such votes. Because a disclosure in the definitive proxy statement for the <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">2018</div> Annual Meeting, which was filed on Schedule <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">14A</div> with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"> November 27, 2017 (</div><div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">2018</div> Proxy Statement), anticipated that brokers would <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">not</div> have discretion to vote for the proposal to approve the Share Increase Amendment, a question has been raised as to the validity of the vote taken on the proposal to approve the Share Increase Amendment. The Company believes that the Share Increase Amendment was properly approved and is effective. However, because the description of the authority of brokers to vote on proposals without instruction in the <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">2018</div> Proxy Statement <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"> may </div>create some uncertainty as to the effect of the vote obtained at the <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">2018</div> Annual Meeting and out of an abundance of caution, the Company is asking its stockholders at the <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">2019</div> Annual Meeting of Stockholders scheduled to be held on <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"> January 18, 2019 </div>to ratify the filing and effectiveness of the Share Increase Amendment pursuant to Delaware law in order to eliminate any uncertainty related to the effectiveness of the Share Increase Amendment. The Company has <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">not</div> issued, or reserved for issuance, and will <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">not</div> issue, or reserve for issuance, any of the additional <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">5,000,000</div> authorized shares as part of the Share Increase Amendment unless the vote at the <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">2019</div> Annual Meeting of Stockholders is in favor of the ratification of the Share Increase Amendment.</div></div>
