Independent Auditor’s Report

Board of Directors

AOS, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Overland Park, Kansas

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of AOS, Inc. and Subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the 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 AOS, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Matter

In our reports dated April 13, 2016 and March 21, 2017, we expressed a qualified opinion on the 2015 and 2016 financial statements, respectively. The basis for a qualified opinion was limited to a departure from accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require an evaluation of the recoverability of the carrying value of long-lived assets whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. As described in Note 2, the Company has changed its method of accounting and restated its 2015 and 2016 consolidated financial statements to conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, our present opinion on the restated 2015 and 2016 consolidated financial statements, as presented herein, is different from that expressed in our previous report.

Emphasis of Matter

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, in 2017, the entity was required to retrospectively apply the impact of previously adopted accounting standards for which the Company is no longer eligible (Private Company Council standards), which materially impacted previously issued financial statements. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015

Note 1: Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

AOS, Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on January 1, 2006. Its wholly-owned subsidiaries include: Alexander Open Systems, Inc. that was incorporated in Kansas on September 1, 1992; AOS, LLC that was organized in Missouri on January 31, 2005; AOSNC, LLC that was organized in Nebraska on August 26, 2005; eTek Global, Inc., a Kansas Corporation, that was acquired on June 3, 2011; and AOScloud, LLC, that was organized in Kansas on July 3, 2012.

Alexander Open Systems, Inc., AOS, LLC and AOSNC, LLC design, sell, install and service computer network systems. eTek Global, Inc. designs intranet portals using the SharePoint system. AOScloud, LLC provides data center-based hosting solutions. The Companies’ primary customers are state and local governments, medical, legal, school districts and universities as well as large corporate accounts located throughout the Midwest.

As discussed in Note 11, in 2015 the Companies ceased the operations of its Texas division and has reported the activity for 2015 and 2016 as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations. As discussed in Note 12, in 2016 the Companies sold virtually all of the assets of AOScloud, LLC and has reported the activity for 2015 and 2016 as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations. The Companies applied the provisions of ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, for the discontinued operations disclosures.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AOS, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the Companies). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fiscal Year

The Companies operate on a fiscal year based on 52- or 53-week periods ending on the last Sunday in December. Both fiscal years ended December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015 were 52 weeks.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Companies recognize revenue, net of sales taxes, when all of the following are present: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, fee to the customer is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

The Companies enter into short-term contracts to install computer systems, whereby the contract is generally completed within the same year that the contract began. Services primarily relate to design and installment of hardware. These services are charged to customers based upon time and material or a predetermined agreed upon fixed fee. Revenue related to services is recognized based on hours spent. For contracts with anticipated services less than 40 hours, revenue is recognized as time is accrued on the services performed. For contracts with anticipated services greater than 40 hours, which generally require a Project Manager to oversee, revenue is recognized on a proportional performance basis. Management determines billing amounts the last week of each fiscal month based on the fixed contract amount and the proportion of the project completed. The proportion is based on hours worked on the project to date versus the total hours budgeted for the project.

Revenue associated with hardware sales is recognized based on the sales terms. Sales terms usually are stated as F.O.B. destination, and delivery is not deemed to have occurred until the point in time when the product is received by the customer.

Revenue is recognized from software sales when the customers acquire the right to use or copy software under license, provided that all revenue recognition criteria have been met.

The sale of hardware and software products may also include the provision of services, and the associated contracts may contain multiple elements. If services are performed in conjunction with a hardware or software sale, revenue is recognized for each portion of the arrangement that is attributable to the items as they are delivered or the services are performed. The selling price is determined in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis.

The Companies sell certain third-party service contracts for which the sale is evaluated whether it should be recorded as a gross sale or a net sale. If the Companies act as a principal in the transaction and assume the risks and rewards of ownership, the sale is recorded gross, and the entire selling price is recorded in sales and the cost to the third-party provider is recorded in cost of goods sold. If the Companies are acting as an agent or broker, the sale is recorded net, and the cost to the third-party provider is recorded as a reduction of sales and there are no cost of goods sold. Net sales are presented within Third-Party Warranty and Engineering Services in the consolidated statements of operations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015

 

Shipping and Handling Costs

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

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred. Advertising costs were $899,736 and $967,079 for the years ended December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, respectively. Advertising costs are offset by cooperative rebates received from vendors, which were $461,951 and $866,583 for the years ended December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Companies consider all liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, cash equivalents consisted primarily of money market accounts with brokers and certificates of deposit.

At December 25, 2016, the Companies’ cash accounts exceeded federally insured limits by approximately $10,315,000.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to customers. The Companies provide an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. Accounts receivable are ordinarily due 30 days after the issuance of the invoice. Accounts past due more than 120 days are considered delinquent. Delinquent receivables are written off based on individual credit evaluation and specific circumstances of the customer.

Returned Goods Receivable

Returned goods receivable are stated at the amount due from vendors for customer returns of product. Customer returns and reorders are processed and executed by the Companies while credit from the vendors is in process.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of hardware in transit and prepaid inventory. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market. Cost of inventory has been determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

Property, Equipment and Software

Property, equipment and software acquisitions are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are charged to expense using straight-line or accelerated methods over the estimated useful life of each asset. Assets under capital lease obligations and leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or their respective estimated useful lives.

The estimated useful lives for each major depreciable classification of property and equipment and software are as follows:

 

Software

   3 years

Computer equipment

   3-5 years

Furniture and fixtures

   7-10 years

Leasehold improvements

   Lease life

Automobiles

   5 years

Long-lived Asset Impairment

The Companies evaluate the recoverability of the carrying value of long-lived assets whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If a long-lived asset is tested for recoverability and the undiscounted estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the asset cost is adjusted to fair value and an impairment loss is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value.

Impairment on long-lived tangible assets of $0 and $3,934,812 was recognized during the years ended December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, respectively.

Goodwill

Goodwill is evaluated annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators are present. A qualitative assessment is performed to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not the fair value is less than the carrying amount, including goodwill. If, based on the evaluation, it is determined to be more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying value, then goodwill is tested further for impairment. If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, a goodwill impairment is indicated and goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. No goodwill impairment losses were recognized during the year ended December 25, 2016. Goodwill impairment losses during the year ended December 27, 2015 were $2,282,796. Subsequent increases in goodwill value are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets include domain name, contracted customers and customer relationships. These assets are amortized using the straight-line method. The domain name is amortized over one and a half years; the contracted customer intangibles are amortized over the life of the contracts (three years) and the customer relationships are amortized over nine years. Such assets are periodically evaluated as to the recoverability of their carrying values. There were no impairment losses recognized for the year ended December 25, 2016. During the year ended December 27, 2015, impairment losses on finite-lived intangible assets totaled $517,881.

Incentive Payments

The Companies receive third-party manufacturer incentives that result in a price reduction on equipment sold to the Companies’ customers. The Companies record these incentives as a reduction of cost of sales. For the years ended December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, the Companies recorded $5,313,223 and $6,548,762, respectively, in incentive payments.

Deferred Revenue

The Companies sell certain services under arrangements that permit customers to prepay for services to be provided. These prepayments are deferred and recognized over the periods in which the services are performed.

Income Taxes

The stockholders of AOS, Inc. and all of its subsidiaries are either limited liability companies or corporations where the respective stockholders have elected to be taxed as an “S” Corporation under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or similar section of the state income tax law for the year ended December 25, 2016. Therefore, taxable income or loss is reported to the individual stockholders and members for inclusion in their respective tax returns and no provision for federal and state income taxes is included in these statements.

Effective January 1, 2015, eTek converted to an “S” Corporation and, therefore, no provision for federal and state income taxes is included as of and for the years ended December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015.

The Companies recognize interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income tax expense.

Self-Insurance

The Companies have elected to self-insure certain costs related to employee health benefit programs. Costs resulting from noninsured losses are charged to income when incurred. The Companies purchased insurance that limits their exposure for individual claims and that limits their aggregate exposure.

Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities

Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations on a net basis.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2015 financial statements to conform to the 2016 financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net earnings.

Note 2: Restatement

The Company did not quantify and record an impairment loss on the property, equipment and software related to its AOScloud, LLC subsidiary at December 27, 2015. The impairment loss was recorded in 2016 when certain assets of the subsidiary were sold to a third party. Fiscal years 2016 and 2015 have been restated for the error. In addition, on December 15, 2017, the Company was acquired and required to report goodwill as a non-amortizable asset, whereas in prior years, goodwill was valued under the provisions of ASU 2014-02—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Accounting for Goodwill (a consensus of the Private Company Council), which allowed goodwill to be amortized over a 10 year useful life. The new method of accounting was required as the Company meets the definition of a public business entity as of December 15, 2017 and comparative financial statements of prior years have been adjusted to apply the new method retrospectively. These restatements increased previously reported income for the year ended

Note 6: Operating Leases

Noncancellable operating leases for branch sales offices and certain office furniture and equipment expire in various years through 2023. These leases generally contain renewal options for various periods and require the Companies to pay all executory costs (property taxes, maintenance and insurance). Lease incentives received by the Companies such as free rent periods, escalating rent provisions and leasehold improvement allowances are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective lease agreements, and are recorded as a reduction of rent expense. At December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, the Companies accrued $1,272,076 and $1,305,207, respectively, for the deferral of the benefit received for free rent periods, future escalating rent payments and leasehold improvement allowances. These amounts are included in deferred lease incentives on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Note 7: Lines of Credit

At December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, the Companies have a $45,000,000 line of credit from Castle Pines Capital, LLC. At both December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, there was $0 borrowed against this line. The balance is payable on demand and has two components. The first component is a floor plan financing arrangement whereby the Companies’ inventory purchases can be financed with 30, 45 or 60 day interest-free periods. The Companies classify amounts outstanding under the floor plan financing as accounts payable. The second component of the line of credit consists of an extended pay line, whereby all inventory purchases that are beyond the interest-free term roll into the interest-bearing portion of the line. Interest on this portion of the line is to be paid weekly at the prime rate, plus 1.5 percent (5.25 percent as of December 25, 2016 and 5.00 percent as of December 27, 2015). There were no outstanding balances owed on the extended pay portion of the line of credit as of December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015. The Companies also classify amounts outstanding under the extended pay line as accounts payable.

This line of credit is collateralized by the Companies’ accounts receivable, all other assets and guarantees by all of its shareholders. All payments received by the Companies on their accounts receivable are directly deposited into a lock-box account so that the Companies can apply payment against the obligation. A power of attorney has been granted to Castle Pines Capital, LLC by the Companies with respect to collections, security interests and related aspects of this agreement.

During the year ended December 27, 2015, the Companies adopted ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, relating to the closure of Alexander Open Systems, Inc.’s Texas division, a consolidated entity of the Companies. As of December 27, 2015, the Companies elected to discontinue the operations of this division, effective in January 2016, due to poor profitability. The closure of this entity resulted in the discontinuation of any marketing and sales effort in the state of Texas for all product and service offerings, which includes hardware sales and engineering services. The remaining assets were analyzed for impairment with no impairment loss assessed by management. The operations of the discontinued division have been reclassified to include all revenues and expenses of the division in discontinued operations. After the closure of the entity, the remaining assets and liabilities were transferred to Alexander Open Systems, Inc.
