Independent Auditors' Report

 

To the Shareholders of
ABC Services, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of ABC Services, Inc., which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity' s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ABC Services, Inc. as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2015 and 2014

 

Note 1 - Nature of Operations

 

Formed under the laws of the state of New York in 1994, ABC Services Inc. (“ABC”) is a leading server and network solutions provider empowering their customers with innovative business technology, and helping them to prosper and surpass their competition with the ability and resources to meet all their IT systems integration needs, quickly and cost effectively. ABC’s services fall in three main categories: IBM Power Systems Services, Cloud Services and Data Center Design. During 2015 and 2014, ABC’s operations were primarily in the New York City metropolitan area.

 

Note 2 - Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entity:

 

In 2015, Secure Infrastructure and Services, LLC (“SIAS”), an entity with a similar nature of operations as ABC was formed under the laws of the state of New York. ABC has a 50% member interest in SIAS, is controlled by ABC management and has common ownership interests. As such, SIAS is a variable interest entity as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) pertaining to “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” and has been consolidated into the financial statements of ABC from the date of their formation pursuant to GAAP.

 

The consolidated financial statements are those, substantially, of a single economic organization, however, they are not of a single legal entity; nevertheless, the consolidated financial statements are referred to as those of the “Company”. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation at December 31, 2015 and 2014 and for the years then ended.

 

The Company, as required by GAAP, identifies and segregates in the consolidated financial statements the balances and amounts included in shareholders’ equity and in net income attributable to the non-controlling interests of the Company, which is the interest in the variable interest entity, SIAS. The account attributable to SIAS is identified as “non-controlling interest in equity”.

 

Use of estimates:

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company's more significant estimates relate to reserves for uncollected receivables. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Accounts receivable:

 

Accounts receivable are recorded when invoices are issued and are presented in the balance sheet net of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based on the Company’s historical losses, the existing economic conditions, and the financial stability of its customers. Accounts are written off as uncollectible after collection efforts have failed. In addition, the Company does not generally charge interest on past-due accounts or require collateral. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $7,560 and $8,501, respectively.

Note 2 - Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Property and Equipment, and Depreciation:

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost except for equipment acquired under capital lease obligations, which is stated at the lesser of the present value of the minimum lease payments over the lease term or the fair market value of the asset at lease inception. Depreciation is generally provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

 

Repairs and maintenance that do not improve or extend the lives of the property and equipment are charged to expense as incurred.

 

Revenue and Cost Recognition:

 

The Company recognizes revenue from product sales at the point of sale, net of sales taxes. Discounts provided to customers at the point of sale are recognized as a reduction in sales as the products are sold.

 

Subscription revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the subscription. Payments received in advance of providing services are recorded as deferred revenue and amortized to revenue over the term of the agreement.

 

Revenue from time-and-materials contracts is recognized currently as the work is performed.

 

Cost of sales includes cost of merchandise sold or third-party service contracts sold during the period, shipping and handling costs, and sales taxes. Additionally, the cost of merchandise sold or third-party contracts sold during the period are recorded net of any discounts and allowances.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

 

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents include time deposits, certificates of deposit, and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less.

 

Shipping and handling costs:

 

Freight billed to customers is considered sales revenue and the related freight costs as a cost of sales.

 

Fair value of financial instruments:

 

The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, consisting principally of cash, receivables, accounts payable, deferred revenue, and loan payable, shareholders approximates fair value due to either the short-term maturity of the instruments or borrowings with similar interest rates or maturities.

 

Income taxes:

 

The Company, with the consent of its shareholders, has elected under the Internal Revenue Code to be an S corporation. In lieu of corporation income taxes, the shareholders of an S corporation are taxed on their proportionate share of the Company’s taxable income. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal income taxes has been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 2 - Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Income taxes:

 

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a recognition threshold of more-likely- than-not to be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority. Measurement of the tax uncertainty occurs if the recognition threshold is met. Management has determined that there were no tax uncertainties that met the recognition threshold at the balance sheet dates, and no interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits have been recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

The Company files tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdictions and New York State and has no open tax years for 2012 and prior.

 

Compensated absences:

 

The Company does not provide for the carryover of unused vacation or sick time beyond the calendar year and, consequently, no accrual of such costs is required at the balance sheet date.

 

Advertising:

 

The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 were approximately $119,000 and $108,000, respectively.

 

Note 3 - Significant Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Cash maintained at commercial banks is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000 in total. From time to time over the course of the years cash balances may exceed the limit, however, at December 31, 2015 and 2014, cash balances did not exceed federally insured limits.

 

Credit risk for trade accounts is concentrated as well because substantially all of the balances are receivable from entities located within certain geographic regions. To reduce credit risk, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions, but does not generally require collateral. In addition, at December 31, 2015, approximately 49% of the Company’s accounts receivable is due from four customers, consisting of 15%, 13%, 11%, and 10%, respectively. At December 31, 2014, approximately 51% of the Company's accounts receivable is due from customers, consisting of 17%, 12%, 11% and 11%, respectively.

 

Note 4 - Major Customers

 

During 2015, approximately 13% of the Company’s revenue was earned from one customer. During 2014, approximately 15% of the Company’s revenue was earned from one customer.

 

Note 5 – Balance Due to/from Shareholders

 

At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the balance due from shareholders amounted to approximately $18,000. Additionally, at December 31, 2015, the balance due to shareholders for loans amounted to approximately

$54,000. There were no formal terms and no interest charged.
