USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) 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.  Important estimates include, but are not limited to, asset lives, valuation allowances, inventory, and accruals.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We commenced a declaratory judgment action in 2013 to establish the invalidity and non-infringement of claims of a patent of a competitor that alleged that our needle sets would infringe. The defendant answered the complaint and asserted various counterclaims that we believe are without merit. We subsequently added claims against the defendant to show that the defendant had engaged in various unfair business practices. The litigation is in early stage discovery.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS EVALUATION

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through October 15, 2014, the date on which the financial statements were issued.  There were no material subsequent events that required recognition or additional disclosure in the financial statements.

EMERGING ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

EMERGENCING ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

 

In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The update gives entities a single comprehensive model to use in reporting information about the amount and timing of revenue resulting from contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The ASU, which would apply to any entity that enters into contracts to provide goods or services, would supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. Additionally, the update would supersede some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition – Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. The update removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements and provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues and more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements. In addition, the update improves comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets and simplifies the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on its results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

Management does not believe that any of the other standards adopted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, but which are not yet effective, will have a material effect on the Company's financial reporting.
