INTRODUCTORY NOTE

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Form 10-K contains "forward-looking statements" relating to the Company which represent the Company's current expectations or beliefs including, but not limited to, statements concerning the Company's operations, performance, financial condition and growth. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Form 10-K that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as "may", "anticipate", "intend", "could", "estimate", or "continue" or the negative or other comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, such as credit losses, dependence on management and key personnel, variability of quarterly results, and the ability of the Company to continue its growth strategy and the Company’s competition, certain of which are beyond the Company's control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, or any of the other risks herein occur, actual outcomes and results could differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements.

 

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

 

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

Reverse Stock Split

 

On October 18, 2016, the Company completed a 1-for-2500 reverse stock split. Amounts for the Company’s historical (pre-reverse stock split) common stock including share and earnings per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted using the respective ratio of 1-for-2500 in this filing, unless otherwise disclosed and indicated.

 

Organizational History

 

Precision Aerospace Components (“Precision Aerospace”, “Precision” or the “Company”) was previously known as Jordan 1 Holdings Company (“Jordan 1”) and was incorporated in Delaware on December 28, 2005. Jordan 1 is the successor to Gasel Transportation Lines, Inc. ("Gasel"), a corporation that was organized under the laws of the State of Ohio on January 27, 1988.

 

Gasel was a trucking company that filed for bankruptcy in the Southern District of Ohio, Eastern Division, in May 2003. On December 12, 2005, a final plan of reorganization was approved by the court and the bankruptcy proceeding was dismissed.

 

Subsequent to December 30, 2005, Jordan 1 did not engage in any business activity until July 20, 2006 when it entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the equity of Delaware Fastener Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“DFAC”), pursuant to an exchange agreement with the stockholders of DFAC. Contemporaneously, DFAC acquired the assets, subject to certain liabilities, of Freundlich Supply Company, Inc. (“Freundlich Supply”) pursuant to an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) dated May 24, 2006 among DFAC, Freundlich Supply, and Michael Freundlich. The purchase of the assets was financed by the proceeds from the sale by the Company of its securities pursuant to a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”). As a result of the Exchange Agreement, DFAC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Upon completion of the foregoing transactions, the Company changed its name to Precision Aerospace Components, Inc. and DFAC changed its name to Freundlich Supply Company, Inc. (“Freundlich”). On March 13, 2009, Precision formed Tiger-Tight Corp., a Delaware corporation, as a wholly-owned subsidiary to serve as the exclusive North American master distributor of the Tiger-Tight locking washer.

 

On March 25, 2012, Precision formed two-wholly owned subsidiaries, Apace Acquisition I, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Apace Acquisition II, Inc., a Delaware corporation. On May 25, 2012, the Company acquired the assets and certain of the liabilities of Fastener Distribution and Marketing Company, Inc., which was comprised of two fastener distribution companies, Aero-Missile Components, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation and Creative Assembly Systems, Inc., an Ohio corporation. Apace Acquisition I, Inc. acquired all of the assets of Aero-Missile Components, Inc. and subsequently changed its name to Aero-Missile Components, Inc. Apace Acquisition II, Inc. acquired all of the assets of Creative Assembly Systems, Inc. and subsequently changed its name to Creative Assembly Systems, Inc.

On January 16, 2015, Precision Group Holding, LLC “PGH” or “Holdings” and C3 Capital Partners III L.P “C3” refinanced the outstanding debt of the Company and purchased approximately 31,116 newly issued shares of restricted Common Stock of the Company and C3 was granted 3,200 shares of restricted common stock of the Company, collectively representing approximately 86.22% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company. On June 6, 2016, the shareholders of the Company approved a resolution to increase authorized shares of Common Stock from 100,000,000 shares to 800,000,000 so as to be able to issue the additional shares of Common Stock to PGH and C3. Also on June 6, 2016, the shareholders of the Company approved a resolution to deauthorize its Preferred A, B, and C stock. Effective June 30, 2016, the Company issued 174,029 and 85,097 shares of restricted common stock to PGH and C3, respectively, resulting in the collective ownership of 98.1%. On October 18, 2016, the Company completed a 1-for-2500 reverse stock split. No fractional shares were issued. Shareholders received $0.02 in consideration for each “pre-split” share of a fractional share. On November 22, 2016, the shareholders of the Company approved a resolution to decrease the number of authorized shares of common stock from 800,000,000, par value $0.001 per share to 1,500,000, par value $0.001 per share.

 

In first quarter of 2016, Precision’s wholly owned subsidiary, Freundlich, was merged into Aero-Missile Components, Inc. (“Aero-Missile”) and Precision’s wholly owned subsidiary, Tiger-Tight Corp. (“Tiger-Tight”) was merged into Creative Assembly Systems, Inc. (“Creative Assembly”). Precision will continue to use the Freundlich and Tiger-Tight trade names.

 

Overview of Business

 

The Company distributes high-quality, predominantly domestically-manufactured, technically complex, nut and bolt products and a proprietary locking washer product that are used primarily for aerospace and military applications and for industrial/commercial applications that require a high level of certified and assured quality.

 

The Company's operations are carried out through its wholly-owned distribution subsidiaries, Aero-Missile and Creative Assembly. Aero-Missile has a stocking distributor relationship with a number of United States fastener manufacturers and sells high technology, specially engineered fasteners - nuts and bolts - predominantly to all levels of the aviation industries (original equipment manufacturers, maintenance and repair organizations, and other distributors as well as to the United States Department of Defense (“Department of Defense”). Creative Assembly is a value added distributor of proprietary and specialty fasteners primarily serving the heavy truck, automotive, transportation, and infrastructure industries.

 

The Company’s products are manufactured, by others, to exacting specifications and are made from materials that provide the strength and reliability required for their aerospace and industrial applications.

 

Industry Overview

 

The fastener distribution industry is highly fragmented. No one company holds a dominant position. This is primarily caused by the varied uses of fasteners and the size of the industry. Precision competes with the numerous fastener distributors which serve as authorized stocking distributors for one or more of the manufacturers in the Company’s supplier base. Precision believes that the depth of its inventory represents a competitive advantage. As a stocking distributor, the Company has employed a business model of maintaining levels of inventory on hand or on order with its suppliers that can satisfy its customers’ projected needs. The demanding quality, inspection, tracking and re-inspection requirements, part certifications and customer qualifications imposed on distributors of aviation fasteners by major consumers create a barrier to entry.

 

Customers

 

In the years 2016 and 2015, approximately19.4% and 17.9% of the Company’s sales were to the Department of Defense, respectively. The balance due from this customer represents 16% of accounts receivable at December 31, 2016 and 8.4% at December 31, 2015. All of these products were sold for maintenance, repair and operations functions. Precision shipped to various government installations across the United States.

 

In each of the years 2016 and 2015, approximately 20.1% of the Company’s sales were to PACCAR, Inc. The balance due from this customer represents 15% of accounts receivable at December 31, 2016 and 14.4% at December 31, 2015. All of these products were sold for manufacturing, repairs, and maintenance of trucks.

 

No other customers represented more than 10 percent of total sales in 2016 or 2015, or outstanding accounts receivable as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Competition

 

The fastener distribution industry as a whole is highly competitive and fragmented. In addition to competing against other distributors, the company believes it faces competition from end users creating their own supply chain management.

 

The company believes its competitive attributes are as follows:

 

 

· The Company’s quality system is certified to Rev. C, AS9120:2009 and ISO 9001:2008 quality measures. Since quality is an important measure of aerospace suppliers, the Company strives to maintain its quality system to the highest standards in the industry.

 

 

 

 

· As an authorized stocking distributor for the premier domestic manufacturers, the Company is able to maintain relationships with customers not generally available to the industry. Many manufacturers in the past several years have consolidated their network of authorized distributors.

 

 

 

 

· As a certified government supplier, also known as “Qualified Supplier/List Distributor,” (“QSLD”) the Company faces less competition when quoting certain orders.

 

Government Regulation

 

The Fastener Quality Act (“FQA”) and its implementing regulations issued by the United States Department of Commerce require certain distributors of fasteners to, among other things, maintain lot traceability for all of their products sold. This requires that companies like Precision keep their books and records for aerospace parts such that they can trace the origin of each item sold back to the manufacturer from which the item was purchased. The FQA imposes additional requirements on the manufacturers of the subject parts and on the users. Because of the demands of the industry, its customers, and its own quality systems, the Company maintains strict lot traceability for each item in its aerospace inventory, and has done so for many years.

 

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2016, the Company had 24 employees, of whom 1 was part-time. We believe our employee relations are very good.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. We are subject to various risks that may materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. An investor should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this filing before deciding to purchase our securities. If any of these risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline. You should only purchase our securities if you can afford to suffer the loss of your entire investment.

 

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

 

Fluctuations in our operating results and announcements and developments concerning our business affect our stock price.

 

Our quarterly operating results, the number of stockholders desiring to sell their shares, changes in general economic conditions and the financial markets, the execution of new contracts and the completion of existing agreements and other developments affecting us, could cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially.

 

We may not be able to obtain necessary additional capital which could adversely impact our operations.

 

Unless the Company can increase its investment in inventory and meet operational expenses with the existing sources of funds we have available, we may need access to additional financing to grow our sales. Such additional financing, whether from external sources or related parties, may not be available if needed or on favorable terms. Our inability to obtain adequate financing will adversely affect the Company’s pace of business operations or could create liquidity and cash flow problems. This could be materially harmful to our business and may result in a lower stock price.

 

We could fail to attract or retain key personnel, which could be detrimental to our operations.

 

Our success largely depends on the efforts and abilities of key executives, employees and consultants. The loss of the services of a key executive, employee or consultant could materially harm our business because of the cost and time necessary to replace and train a replacement. Such a loss would also divert management attention away from operational issues. To the extent that we are smaller than our competitors and have fewer resources, we may not be able to attract the sufficient number and quality of staff.

 

If we make any acquisitions, they may disrupt or have a negative impact on our business.

 

If we make acquisitions, we could have difficulty integrating the acquired companies’ personnel and operations with our own. In addition, the key personnel of the acquired business may not be willing to work for us. We cannot predict the affect expansion may have on our core business. Regardless of whether we are successful in making an acquisition, the negotiations could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees and increase our expenses. In addition to the risks described above, acquisitions are accompanied by a number of inherent risks, including, without limitation, the following:

 

 

· the difficulty of integrating acquired products, services or operations;

 

· the potential disruption of the ongoing businesses and distraction of our management and the management of acquired companies;

 

· the difficulty of incorporating acquired rights or products into our existing business;

 

· difficulties in disposing of the excess or idle facilities of an acquired company or business and expenses in maintaining such facilities;

 

· difficulties in maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies;

 

· the potential impairment of relationships with employees and customers as a result of any integration of new management personnel;

 

· the potential inability or failure to achieve additional sales and enhance our customer base through cross-marketing of the products to new and existing customers;

 

· the effect of any government regulations which relate to the business acquired; and

 

· potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired businesses or product lines, or the need to spend significant amounts to retool, reposition or modify the marketing or sales of acquired products or the defense of any litigation, whether or not successful, resulting from actions of the acquired company prior to our acquisition.

Table of Contents

 

Our business could be severely impaired if and to the extent that we are unable to succeed in addressing any of these risks or other problems encountered in connection with these acquisitions, many of which cannot be presently identified. These risks and problems could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees, increase our expenses and adversely affect our results of operations.

 

We are dependent on a few major industries.

 

We are dependent on the aerospace, defense and trucking industries for a majority of our revenue and, as a result, our business will be negatively impacted by any decline in those industries.

 

We face risks relating to government contracts.

 

There are inherent risks in contracting with the U.S. government, including risks that are unique to the defense industry. Changes in procurement policy, military hardware requirements, or Government budgets could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

RISKS RELATING TO OUR CURRENT FINANCING ARRANGEMENT

 

C3, our subordinated lender, owns approximately 32% of the equity of the Company pursuant to the Transactions. C3 is entitled to a Board seat and other protections and rights. If any amounts under Note A are outstanding, C3 is entitled to appoint a majority of directors to the Board. In the event of a default under the current loan agreements, technical or otherwise, C3 could choose to exercise those protections and rights to the detriment of other equity holders.

 

RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK

 

If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board or OTC:Pink listing which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholder to sell their securities in the secondary market.

 

Companies trading on the OTC Bulletin Board or OTC:Pink, such as us, must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board or OTC:Pink. If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board or OTC:Pink. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

 

If the number of record holders of our common stock stays below 300, we may choose to terminate registration of our common stock and suspend our SEC reporting obligations limiting the ability of stockholder to sell their securities in the secondary market.

 

As of December 31, 2016, we have only 22 record holders of our common stock. We may choose to file a Form 15 with the SEC, which would suspend our SEC reporting obligations until the number of record holders of our common stock exceeded 300. Suspending our reporting obligations could adversely affect the liquidity and price of our common stock.

 

Our common stock may be affected by limited trading volume and the price of our shares may fluctuate significantly, which cumulatively may affect shareholders' ability to sell shares of our common stock

 

As of December 31, 2016, two shareholders Precision Group Holdings LLC (“PGH”) and C3 Capital Partners III L.P (“C3”) collectively own 98.1% of our common stock and are currently restricted from selling their shares. There has been a limited public market for our common stock. A more active trading market for our common stock may not develop. An absence of an active trading market could adversely affect our shareholders' ability to sell our common stock in short time periods, or possibly at all. Our common stock has experienced, and is likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations, which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors such as quarterly fluctuations in our financial results and changes in the overall economy or the condition of the financial markets could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. These factors may negatively impact shareholders' ability to sell shares of the Company's common stock.

 

Because we are currently subject to the “penny stock” rules, our investors may have difficulty in selling their shares of our common stock.

 

“Penny Stock” is shares of stock:

 

 

· With a price of less than $5.00 per share;

 

· That are not traded on a "recognized" national exchange;

 

· Whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation system (NASDAQ listed stock must still have a price of not less than $5.00 per share); or

 

· Of issuers with net tangible assets less than $2.0 million (if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years) or $10.0 million (if in continuous operation for less than three years), or with average revenues of less than $6.0 million for the last three years.

Table of Contents

 

Our Common Stock is presently deemed to be Penny Stock.

 

Our stock is currently subject to the SEC’s penny stock rules, (Rule 3a51-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) which impose additional sales practice requirements and restrictions on broker-dealers that sell our stock to persons other than established customers and institutional accredited investors. These requirements may reduce the potential market for our common stock by reducing the number of potential investors. This may make it more difficult for investors in our common stock to sell shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them. This could cause our stock price to decline.

 

Broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks are required to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks. Because of the speculative nature of penny stocks, Congress prohibited broker-dealers from effecting transactions in penny stocks unless they comply with the requirements of Section 15(h) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder. These SEC rules provide, among other things, that a broker-dealer must (1) approve the customer for the specific penny stock transaction and receive from the customer a written agreement to the transaction; (2) furnish the customer a disclosure document describing the risks of investing in penny stocks; (3) disclose to the customer the current market quotation, if any, for the penny stock; and (4) disclose to the customer the amount of compensation the firm and its broker will receive for the trade.

According to the SEC, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:

 

 

· Control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;

 

· Manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;

 

· “Boiler room” practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons;

 

· Excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and

 

· The wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.

 

This may make it more difficult for investors to sell their shares due to suitability requirements.

 

The protection provided by the federal securities laws relating to forward looking statements does not presently apply to issuers of Penny Stock Shares. Our shares are Penny Stock shares.

 

Although the federal securities law provide a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by a public company that files reports under the federal securities laws, this safe harbor is not available to issuers of penny stocks. As a result, as long as our shares continue to be a Penny Stock, we will not have the benefit of this safe harbor protection in the event of any proceeding based upon a claim that the material provided by us contained a material misstatement of fact or was misleading in any material respect because of our failure to include any statements necessary to make the statements not misleading.

 

Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results and stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting.

 

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires us to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of each year, and to include a management report assessing the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in each Annual Report on Form 10-K.


 
8
 
Table of Contents

 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. Over time, controls may become inadequate because changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may occur. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

As a result, we cannot assure you that significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting will not be identified in the future or that we can effectively remediate our reported weaknesses. Any failure to maintain or implement required new or improved controls, or any difficulties we encounter in their implementation, could result in significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, cause us to fail to timely meet our periodic reporting obligations, or result in material misstatements in our financial statements. Any such failure could also adversely affect the results of periodic management evaluations regarding disclosure controls and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules promulgated thereunder. The existence of a material weakness could result in errors in our financial statements that could result in a restatement of financial statements, cause us to fail to timely meet our reporting obligations and cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information.

 

In 2017, the Company anticipates engaging an outside consultant to properly test the Company’s internal controls and provide a report to help the Company outlining the steps necessary for the Company to have “effective internal controls. The Company has proactively begun taking steps to improve internal controls and governance, including but not limited to separation of certain financial reporting duties.

 

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

 

Our principal executive office and distribution center for Aero-Missile is located at 351 Camer Dr., Bensalem, Pennsylvania 19020. The space is leased on a month to month basis by the Company for approximately $7,800 per month. In total, the Company occupies four (4) locations ranging in size throughout the United States for use as warehouse space, which is down from six (6) locations in 2015. All of the space we currently occupy is sufficient for our present and anticipated needs. Management expects no material change in lease expenses through 2017.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

General

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, and the Notes thereto included herein. The information contained below includes statements of the Company's or management's beliefs, expectations, goals and plans. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. For a discussion of forward-looking statements, see the information set forth in the Introductory Note to this Annual Report under the caption "Forward Looking Statements" which information is incorporated herein by reference.

 

A description of the Company’s operations and marketplace is contained in Section 1 of this report.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

In 2016, the Company generated approximately $733,000 of positive operating cash flow, versus approximately $1,416,000 of negative operating cash flow in 2015. Purchases of property and equipment increased from approximately $5,600 in 2015 to approximately $195,000 in 2016, largely as a result of the Company’s inventory and accounting system upgrade. The Company’s net cash flow used in financing activity was approximately $536,000, which primarily repayment on the line of credit and repayment of the Prince Note, versus cash flow provided by financing activity of approximately $1,438,000 in 2015.

 

On January 16, 2015 (the “Effective Date”), the Company together with all of its wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into definitive agreements with Precision Group Holdings LLC (“PGH”) and C3 Capital Partners III L.P. (“C3”) to effectuate a series of transactions to recapitalize the Company (the “Transactions” or the “Emergency Refinancing”). Upon the consummation of the Transactions, PGH and C3 collectively owned 98.1% of the shares of Common Stock of the Company.

 

On the Effective Date, the Company paid $250,000 due and payable on that certain outstanding debt (the “Prince Note”) with Andrew Prince, former president and chief executive officer and current director of the Company. In addition, the Company and Mr. Prince agreed to amend the Prince Note to have an outstanding balance of $285,000 with an interest rate of one-half percent (0.50%) per annum with interest payable monthly. Beginning in February 2015, the Company paid 0.7% of its aggregate gross sales on the Prince Note. As of September 30, 2016, the Prince Note had been paid in full.

 

Management believes that the company has appropriate liquidity to continue operations for at least twelve months from the date of this report.

 

Securities Purchase Agreement

 

On the Effective Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement) with C3, pursuant to which the Company and its Subsidiaries authorized the issuance and sale to C3 of (1) a Senior Secured Note issued by the Subsidiaries in the amount of $5,500,000 (“Note A”), (2) a Subordinated Secured Note issued by the Subsidiaries in the amount of $3,500,000 (“Note B”), and (3) 3,200 shares of unregistered Common Stock for a loan from C3. In addition, in partial consideration for providing the two loans the Company issued20,730shares of unregistered Common Stock to C3 at the Second Closing that, together with the initial issuance of 3,200 shares, caused C3 to have received 8% of the total Common Stock of Precision after the Second Closing (collectively, the “Granted Equity”). In addition, the Company issued C3 shares of unregistered Common Stock pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement (see below) (the “Purchased Equity”).The issuance and sale of the Granted Equity was a private placement exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Note A accrues at 11% interest per annum, with 10% payable monthly and 1% accruing to the outstanding balance of Note A, payable at maturity. Note A has a Maturity Date of January 16, 2020. Note A carries with it industry standard prepayment penalties. Note A is secured against all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

 

Note B accrues at 14% interest per annum. Note B has a Maturity Date of January 16, 2020. Note B carries with it industry standard prepayment penalties. Note B is secured against all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

Table of Contents

 

Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, so long as Note A remains outstanding, C3 will have the right to control the Company’s board of directors, which will be limited to no more than five (5) members during this time. Once Note A is paid in full and for so long as Note B remains outstanding, C3 will have the right to elect and control one (1) member seat of the Company’s board.

 

The Company has granted C3 a put right under the Securities Purchase Agreement for the Common Stock C3 has received (whether by purchase or grant) at any time after the earlier to occur of (1) the fifth (5th ) anniversary of the closing of the Securities Purchase Agreement for Common Stock (for Granted Equity), (2) the seventh (7th) anniversary of the closing of the Securities Purchase Agreement (for Purchased Equity), (3) payment in full of the amounts owed under Note A and Note B, or (4) upon an Event of Default, as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement. The put right may be exercised by C3 for all or a portion of the Common Stock at an agreed upon valuation of the Company.

 

The Securities Purchase Agreement also contains customary covenants, representations and warranties of the parties, including, among others, (1) the grant by the Company to C3 of a lien on all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (2) a pledge with respect to all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries to secure the obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (3) an unconditional and irrevocable guarantee by the Company of the performance of the obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (4) non-compete agreements with certain executive officers of the Company, and (5) the assignment to C3 of key-man life insurance policies for certain of the Company’s executive officers. In addition, until all amounts under Note A and Note B are paid in full, the Company has also agreed to comply with certain financial covenants that require the Company to meet pre-established financial ratios. On July 14, 2016, the Company and C3amended the Securities Purchase Agreement to require that the Company maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1, and a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 4.25 to 1 for the years 2016 and 2017, and dropping to 2.0 to 1 in each fiscal quarter thereafter. For the purposes of calculating EBITDA, the Company makes certain adjustments and add backs for expenses that are deemed one time. As of December 31, 2016 the Company was not in compliance with its financial covenant with C3 to maintain a net debt to EBITDA ratio of less than 4.25 to 1 for each quarter of 2016. C3 has waived this default. The Company is in compliance with all other financial covenants. The Company is also required to conduct its business in the ordinary course and take certain actions only with C3’s prior consent.

 

In conjunction with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the parties entered into other Transaction Agreements on the Effective Date, including a Security Agreement and Subordination Agreement, whereby (1) C3 was granted a security interest in all existing and future property of the Company and its Subsidiaries to secure the performance by the Company and its Subsidiaries of their Obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement and (2) all current and future debt owed to certain of the Company creditors became subordinate and subject in right and time of payment to the prior payment in full of all current and future indebtedness owed to C3.

 

Stock Purchase Agreement

 

On the Effective Date, concurrently with the execution of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement by and among Andrew S. Prince, Donald Barger, and David Walters (the “Precision Shareholders”), and C3 and PGH(the “Stock Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, Holdings and C3 agreed to purchase a total of 269,512 restricted shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $500,000 in two installments. The First Closing occurred on the Effective Date resulting in an issuance of 8,401 shares of restricted Common Stock to C3 for a purchase price of $116,571 and 22,715 shares of restricted Common Stock to Holdings for a purchase price of $315,172. On July 7, 2016, pursuant to the Second Closing, the Company issued 85,096and 174,028shares of restricted Common Stock to C3 and Holdings, respectively for a total purchase price equal to $68,257. The issuance and sale of the restricted shares of Common Stock in each installment was a private placement exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

In order to effect the second installment of restricted Common Stock, the shareholders of the Company approved a resolution to amend its certificate of incorporation (“Certificate Amendment”) to increase the authorized shares of Common Stock from 100,000,000 shares to 800,000,000 shares. The Certificate Amendment was approved by the Company’s Shareholders on the June 6, 2016.

 

The Company has agreed to indemnify C3 and Holdings for all damages, costs, obligations, liabilities, losses, expenses, and fees arising out of a breach of any of the Company’s representations, warranties, covenants, or other agreements contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement.

 

The Stock Purchase Agreement also contains customary covenants, representations and warranties of the parties.

Shareholder Agreement

 

On January 16, 2015, the Company, Holdings, and C3 entered into a Shareholder Agreement setting forth the relative rights of the parties with regard to, among other things, the transfer or other disposition of securities of the Company, capital calls, and the governance of the Company. Under the Shareholder Agreement, C3 and Holdings may transfer shares subject to certain rights of first refusal, and tag along-take along rights of the other shareholder. C3 will be permitted to elect one (1) director of the Company and each of its subsidiaries for so long as C3 owns shares of Common Stock and allowed to designate two (2) observers to attend all meetings of the Company’s board of directors and one (1) observer for each of the Company’s subsidiaries. Certain Company actions including, amongst others, amendments to the Company’s organizational documents, bankruptcy filings or other similar liquidation events, the redemption or repurchase of shares of Common Stock, the payment of dividends or other distributions, the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock, incurring indebtedness in excess of $100,000 or entering into a transaction with Company affiliates will require C3’s prior written consent.

 

Management Services Agreement

 

On January 16, 2015, the Company and Polymathes Capital, LLC, an affiliate of Holdings, (“Consultant”), entered into a Management Services Agreement whereby the Company engaged the Consultant to provide financing and management consulting services to the Company and its Subsidiaries on a month-to-month basis. Messrs John Wachter and William Golden are also affiliates of Polymathes Capital and Holdings. The consulting fee is $100,000 per annum, payable in monthly increments.

 

Refinancing with Webster Business Credit Corporation

 

On August 25, 2015, the Company established a new revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $7.5 million (the “WBCC Revolving Loan”) by entering into a Credit Agreement (the “WBCC Credit Agreement”) with Webster Business Credit Corporation, as Lender (“WBCC”). The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries Aero-Missile Components, Inc., and Creative Assembly Systems serve as guarantors of the WBCC Revolving. Borrowings under the WBCC Revolving Loan may be used to finance working capital and other general corporate purposes.

 

On August 25, 2015, pursuant to the WBCC Credit Agreement, the Company used an initial advance of $5,125,000 under the Revolving Loan to repay $5,000,000 of principal on Note A issued by the Subsidiaries in favor of C3 Capital Partners III, L.P. in the amount of $5,500,000 on January 16, 2015. A principal balance of $500,000 remains on Note A. Pursuant to the partial repayment to C3, the Company incurred a $250,000 prepayment penalty.

 

Borrowings under the WBCC Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s election, at a rate tied to one of the following rates: (i) the prime lending rate plus 1.25% or (ii) the adjusted daily LIBOR rate plus 2.75%. On December 31, 2016 the rate calculated to 3.52167%.

 

Borrowings under the WBCC Credit Agreement are senior to Note A and Note B.

 

The outstanding principal amount of any borrowings under the WBCC Revolving Loan will be due and payable on August 25, 2018, subject to an earlier maturity date upon an event of default.

 

The WBCC Credit Agreement contains usual and customary covenants for financings of this type, including, among other things: (i) requirements to deliver financial statements, other reports and notices; (ii) restrictions on indebtedness; (iii) restrictions on dividends, distributions and redemptions of equity and repayment of subordinated indebtedness; (iv) restrictions on liens; (v) restrictions on making certain payments; (vi) restrictions on investments; (vii) restrictions on asset dispositions and other fundamental changes; and (viii) restrictions on transactions with affiliates.

 

The WBCC Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants, including a minimum 1.1 to 1.0 fixed charge coverage ratio. As of December 31, 2016, the Company is in compliance with its covenants.

 

The obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries under the WBCC Credit Agreement are secured by liens and security interests on all assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including a pledge of 100% of the equity of the Subsidiaries.

Table of Contents

 

Under the WBCC Credit Agreement, the Company is dependent upon its line of credit to maintain appropriate liquidity. All of the Company’s cash flow from operations is required to be swept to its line of credit. The availability from its line is dependent upon accounts receivable and inventory.

 

The Company, historically, has not had a need to make major capital investments. The Company does not anticipate any other material capital equipment investments.

 

Under the WBCC Credit Agreement, the Company’s interest rate for the WBCC Revolving Loan is linked to indices. Changes in the indices could cause an increase in interest expense. The Company’s interest rate on Note A and Note B with C3 is fixed and not linked to indices.

 

On December 31, 2016, the Revolving Loan had a principal balance of $5,339,199, which was $5,292,366, net of deferred financing costs.

 

Results of Operations

 

During 2016, the Company sales compared to 2015 sales were down approximately 16.1%. The main driver of sales from 2012 to 2015 had been related to the growth in our heavy truck market. In 2016, the heavy truck market slowed dramatically. While there has been increased activity in the commercial aerospace market, our sales to the Department of Defense have continued to show weakness over the past few years. In 2016, the Company saw minor pull back in sales related to commercial and military aerospace.

 

In 2016, the Company experienced normal lead times for product deliveries. While the Company believes that its supply chain will continue to operate without major interruption, the Company’s management periodically assesses each supplier.

 

For the years 2016 and 2015 the Company has recorded several write downs of inventory as outlined below in “Inventory Reserve for Obsolescence”. Gross profit margins, after accounting for inventory reserves were 22.5% and 19.6% for 2016 and 2015, respectively. Gross profit margins increased due to better buying practices related to enhancements in management talent and focusing on higher margin jobs. Operating expenses in 2016 declined by 14.1% compared to 2015. The primary reason for the decrease in operating expenses is the elimination of several positions at the Company, as well as a decrease in dependence on outside consultants that previous management required. An increase in value for C3’s put option caused an increase in non-cash charges for the Company. Changes in the put value have and will continue to have an impact on net income.

 

Interest cost was down 45.6% in 2016 compared to 2015, as a result of normalization from the one-time charges for the refinancing transactions that occurred in 2015. Interest expense in 2016 and 2015 was $908,146 and $1,669,910, respectively.

 

Inventory Reserve for Obsolescence

 

In 2015, the Company increased their inventory reserve in the amount of approximately $1,050,000. In 2016, the Company increased their inventory reserve, prior to any write-offs, in the amount of approximately $384,000. The Company has adopted an inventory reserve methodology that factors age of a part in relation to value. The Company believes that the longer that a part sits on the shelf; the likelihood that it will not ever sell is increasing. The Company’s reserve for obsolete inventory changed approximately ($152,000) in 2016 due to the direct write off of already reserved inventory.

ITEM 7A. DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonably based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates, judgments and assumptions and actual results, our financial statements will be affected.

 

In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management's judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management's judgment in selecting among available alternatives would not produce a materially different result. Our senior management has reviewed these critical accounting policies and related disclosures. See Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which contain additional information regarding our accounting policies and other disclosures required by GAAP.

 

The following are the Company’s critical accounting policies:

 

 

· Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, utilizing the specific lot identification method. Inventory consists of finished goods for resale at year end 2015 and 2016. Information on inventory reserves can be found in the notes to the consolidated financials.

 

  

 

 

· Accounts Receivable - allowance for sales returns and allowance for doubtful accounts - In determining the adequacy of the allowances for sales returns and doubtful accounts, the Company considers a number of factors including the history of sales to each customer, any items returned by customer, aging of the receivable portfolio, customer payment trends, and financial condition of the customer, industry conditions and overall credibility of the customer. Actual amounts could differ significantly from our estimates.

 

  

 

 

· Income Taxes - In the preparation of consolidated financial statements, the Company estimates anticipated income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities represent tax benefits or obligations that arise from temporary differences due to differing treatment of certain items for accounting and income tax purposes. The Company evaluates deferred tax assets each period to ensure that estimated future taxable income will be sufficient in character, amount and timing to result in their recovery. A valuation allowance is established when management determines that it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized to reduce the assets to their realizable value. Considerable judgments are required in establishing deferred tax valuation allowances and in assessing probable exposures related to tax matters. The Company’s tax returns are subject to audit and local taxing authorities that could challenge the company’s tax positions. The Company believes it records and/or discloses such potential tax liabilities as appropriate and has reasonably estimated its income tax liabilities and recoverable tax assets.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Precision Aerospace Components, Inc. and subsidiaries

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Precision Aerospace Components, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficiency, and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2016. Precision Aerospace Components, Inc. and subsidiaries’ management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Precision Aerospace Components, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2016, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

PRECISION AEROSPACE COMPONENTS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2016

 

1. SUMMARY OF BUSINESS

 

Precision Aerospace Components, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) distributes high-quality, predominantly domestically-manufactured, technically complex, nut and bolt products and a proprietary locking washer product that are used primarily for aerospace and military applications and for industrial/commercial applications that require a high level of certified and assured quality.

 

The Company's operations are carried out through its wholly-owned distribution subsidiaries, Aero-Missile Components, Inc. (“Aero-Missile”), Freundlich Supply Company, Inc. (“Freundlich”), Creative Assembly Systems, Inc. (“Creative Assembly”) and Tiger-Tight Corp. (“Tiger-Tight”). Aero-Missile and Freundlich both have stocking distributor relationships with a number of United States fastener manufacturers and sell high technology, specially engineered fasteners - nuts and bolts - predominantly to all levels of the aviation industries (original equipment manufacturers, maintenance and repair organizations, and other distributors as well as to the United States Department of Defense (“Department of Defense”)). Creative Assembly is a value added distributor of proprietary and specialty fasteners primarily serving the heavy truck, automotive, transportation, and infrastructure industries. Tiger-Tight was the exclusive North American master distributor of the Tiger-Tight locking washer. In the first quarter of 2015, the Company cancelled the master distribution agreement due to lack of sales. The Company will continue to evaluate opportunities to supply the product into production, but without the master distributor agreement. In the first quarter of 2016, Precision’s wholly owned subsidiary, Freundlich, was merged into Aero-Missile and Tiger-Tight was merged into Creative Assembly. Precision will continue to use the Freundlich and Tiger-Tight trade names.

 

The Company’s products are manufactured, by others, to exacting specifications and are made from materials that provide the strength and reliability required for their aerospace and industrial applications.

 

On October 18, 2016, the Company completed a 1-for-2500 reverse stock split. Amounts for the Company’s historical (pre-reverse stock split) common stock including share and earnings per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted using the respective ratio of 1-for-2500 in these financial statements, unless otherwise disclosed and indicated.

 

On January 16, 2015, Precision Group Holding, LLC (“PGH” or “Holdings”) and Capital Partners III L.P (“C3”) refinanced the outstanding debt of the Company and purchased approximately 31,116 shares of restricted Common Stock of the Company and C3 was granted 3,200 shares of restricted common stock of the Company, collectively representing approximately 86.22% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company. On June 6, 2016, the shareholders of the Company approved a resolution to increase authorized shares of Common Stock from 100,000,000 shares to 800,000,000 so as to be able to issue the additional shares of Common Stock to PGH and C3. Also on June 6, 2016, the shareholders of the Company approved a resolution to deauthorize its Preferred A, B, and C stock. Effective June 30, 2016, the Company issued 174,028 shares and 85,096 shares of restricted common stock to PGH and C3, respectively, resulting in the collective ownership of 98.1%. On October 18, 2016, the Company completed a 1-for-2500 reverse stock split. No fractional shares were issued. Shareholders received $0.02 in consideration for each “pre-split” share of a fractional share. On November 22, 2016, the shareholders of the Company approved a resolution to decrease the number of authorized shares of common stock from 800,000,000, par value $0.001 per share to 1,500,000, par value $0.001 per share.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts have been eliminated.

 

 
F-7
 
Table of Contents

 

PRECISION AEROSPACE COMPONENTS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2016

 

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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates relate to the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, valuation of shareholder put option, and cash flow assumptions regarding evaluations for impairment of long-lived assets and going concern considerations, and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable are recorded net of reserves for sales returns and allowances and net of provisions for doubtful accounts. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts to allow for any amounts that may not be recoverable. The amount of the allowance is based on an analysis of the Company’s prior collection experience, customer credit worthiness, and current economic trends. Based on management’s review of accounts receivable, the Company carries an allowance for doubtful accounts of $218,924 and $129,357 as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company determines receivables to be past due based on the payment terms of original invoices. Interest is not typically charged on past due receivables.

 

Inventory

 

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost on an average cost basis, or market. When necessary, management records an inventory reserve for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory based upon knowledge of future demand of inventory on hand as well as other market conditions and events. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015 the inventory reserve was $5,033,504 and $5,185,820, respectively. For the years 2016 and 2015, the Company wrote off approximately $535,000 and $0, respectively, of previously reserved for inventory.

 

Management believes that the longer a part sits on the shelf the higher the likelihood that it will not sell in the future. This belief is not unique to the fastener industry. While management constantly assesses viability of a part within the customer base, it also believes that a reserve should be carried to reflect product that is aging out, as opposed to product that management identified based on a specific event. At the end of 2016, the Company had more than 40,000 unique part numbers on hand that had carrying value. Management believes that the two methods, specific identification and reserve based on age, to analyzing inventory will reflect the appropriate balance sheet value.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company computes depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets acquired as follows:

 

Leasehold improvements

5 years **

Furniture and fixtures

7 years

Equipment and other

3-5 years

 

** Shorter of life or lease term.

Table of Contents

 

PRECISION AEROSPACE COMPONENTS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2016

 

The carrying amount of all long-lived assets is evaluated periodically to determine whether adjustment to the useful life or to the unamortized balance is warranted. Such evaluation is based principally on the expected utilization of the long-lived assets.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company provides for income taxes under ASC Topic 740-10. ASC Topic 740-10 requires the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. Temporary differences relate primarily to different accounting methods used for depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and deferred compensation.

 

ASC Topic 740-10 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

ASC Topic 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income tax positions, as defined. It requires, among other matters, that the Company recognize in our financial statements, the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company analyzes the filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where the Company is required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2016, the Company did not record any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’s policy, if it had unrecognized benefits, is to recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and other expense, respectively.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the fee is fixed and determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue when product is shipped or when it is received by the customer, depending on the contractual terms.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash, certificates of deposit, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of the financial instruments.

 

The Company believes that its indebtedness approximates fair value based on current yields for debt instruments with similar terms.

 

Shipping Costs

 

Shipping costs relating to sales were approximately $128,000 and $161,000 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

 

In accordance with the authoritative guidance for fair value measurements and the fair value election for financial assets and financial liabilities, a fair value measurement is determined based on the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability. A three-tiered hierarchy was established that draws a distinction between market participant assumptions based on the following:

 

i)

observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)

ii)

inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2)

iii)

unobservable inputs that require the Company to use present value and other valuation techniques in the determination of fair value (Level 3).

 

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measure. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

Stock Based Compensation Policy

 

The Company accounts for stock-based awards to recipients in accordance with applicable accounting principles, which requires compensation expense related to share-based transactions, to be measured and recognized in the financial statements based on a grant date fair value over the requisite service period.

 

Long Lived Assets Impairment

 

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. When it becomes apparent that indicators such as a significant decrease in the market value of the long-lived asset group or if material differences between operating results and the Company’s forecasted expectations occur, then an impairment analysis is performed.

 

If indicators arise, an initial determination of recoverability is performed based on an estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition compared with the carrying value. If the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, a measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived assets is performed. The impairment charge is the excess of the carrying value of the asset group over the fair value, as determined utilizing appropriate valuation techniques.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Sales to two customers totaled greater than 10% during 2016 and 2015. The United States Department of Defense (“DOD”) represented approximately19.4% and 17.9% of the Company’s total sales for the year ending December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. PACCAR Inc represented approximately 20.1% of the Company’s total sales for each of the years ending December 31, 2016 and 2015. DOD and PACCAR represent 16% and 15% of outstanding accounts receivable at December 31, 2016, respectively. DOD and PACCAR outstanding accounts receivable at December 31, 2015, were 8.4% and 14.4%, respectively. No other customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company’s total sales for the years ending December 13, 2016 and 2015, or greater than 10% of outstanding accounts receivable as of each balance sheet date.

 

Concentration of Suppliers

 

The Company’s top twenty suppliers represented more than 66% of product distributed for the year end December 31, 2016 and 76% for the year end December 31, 2015. The Company’s two largest suppliers, SPS Technologies and AVK Industrial Products, represented approximately 42.0% and 43.6% of product distributed for the years ending December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Amounts outstanding at December 31, 2016 and 2015 represent 37% and 32% of accounts payable, respectively. For nearly all suppliers, the Company looks to have secondary supply outlets. However, manufacturing issues with any supplier could cause temporary disruptions to the Company.

Earnings (Loss) per Common Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net profit attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the year. Basic earnings (loss) per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants and other stock-based compensation, which are included in diluted earnings per share. When a company is in a loss situation, all outstanding dilutive shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings because their inclusion would be antidilutive; and the basic and fully diluted common shares outstanding are stated to be the same.

  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. Management of public and private companies will be required to evaluate whether there are conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued when applicable) and, if so, disclose that fact. Management will be required to make this evaluation for both annual and interim reporting periods, if applicable. The standard is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016 and interim periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. This adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-03: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This guidance requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability and amortization of debt issuance costs to be classified as interest expense. The ASU is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company has presented its deferred financing costs in accordance with this standard since origination.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment   Accounting , which includes multiple provisions intended to simplify various aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including treatment of excess tax benefits and forfeitures, as well as consideration of minimum statutory tax withholding requirements. The ASU will take effect for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early application permitted in any interim or annual period. The Company is evaluating the future impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying performance obligations and licensing, to reduce the cost and complexity of applying the guidance on identifying promised goods or services around identifying performance obligations and implementation guidance on determining whether an entity’s promise to grant a license provides a customer with either a right to use the entity’s intellectual property (which is satisfied at a point in time) or a right to access the entity’s intellectual property (which is satisfied over time). The Company is evaluating the future impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classifications of Deferred Taxes , which requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The current requirement that deferred tax liabilities and assets of a tax-paying component of an entity be offset and presented as a single amount is not affected by this amendment. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted and the standard may be applied either retrospectively or on a prospective basis to all deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on the determination or reporting of its consolidated financial statements.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory , which requires inventory to be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted and the standard is to be applied prospectively. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements.

 

There have been no other accounting pronouncements that have been issued but not yet implemented that the Company believes will materially impact the financial statements.

3. LONG-TERM DEBT AND LINE OF CREDIT

 

Loans From Shareholders

 

During April 2013, our former primary shareholder and former CEO entered into a short term agreement to make a loan to the Company (the "Prince Note"). The outstanding balance for the loan was approximately $535,000 with an original maturity date of October 14, 2013. The loan had a stated interest rate of 10%. These funds were used in order to satisfy certain vendor obligations. The loans were to be collateralized by certain inventory purchases to be held by the shareholder. The inventory would be available to be sold by the Company in the normal course of business.

 

On January 16, 2015, the Company paid $250,000 due and payable on the Prince Note. In addition, the Company and Mr. Prince agreed to amend the Prince Note to have an outstanding balance of $285,000 with an interest rate of one-half percent (0.50%) per annum with interest payable monthly. Beginning in February 2015, the Company agreed to pay 0.7% of its aggregate gross sales on the Prince Note until the Prince Note is repaid. On December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Prince Note had a principal balance remaining of $0 and $122,790, respectively.

 

On June 26, 2015, the Company entered into a short term agreement with C3 and PGH (both related parties) to provide $250,000 in the form of two $125,000 draws. The intent of the note was to provide short term financing to bridge the Company's cash flow needs. Prior to December 31, 2015, the entire note was repaid.

 

Refinancing

 

On January 16, 2015, the Company and its Subsidiaries entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement) with C3, pursuant to which the Company and its Subsidiaries authorized the issuance and sale to C3 of (1) a Senior Secured Note issued by the Subsidiaries in the amount of $5,500,000 ("Note A"), (2) a Subordinated Secured Note issued by the Subsidiaries in the amount of $3,500,000 ("Note B"), and (3) 3,200 shares unregistered Common Stock for a loan from C3.

 

Note A will accrue at 11% interest per annum, with 10% payable monthly and 1% accruing to the outstanding balance of Note A, payable at maturity. Note A has a Maturity Date of January 16, 2020. If Note A principal is prepaid from a recapitalization of outside capital, a prepayment penalty will apply on the following schedule: (1) 5% of the amount prepaid until the first anniversary of Note A, (2) 4% of the amount prepaid after the first anniversary until the second anniversary of Note A, (3) 3% of the amount prepaid after the second anniversary of Note A until the third anniversary of Note A, (4) 2% of the amount prepaid after third anniversary of Note A until the fourth anniversary of Note A, and (5) 1% of the amount prepaid after the fourth anniversary of Note A until the Maturity Date. Note A is secured against all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

 

Note B will accrue at 14% interest per annum. Note B has a Maturity Date of January 16, 2020. If Note B principal is prepaid from a recapitalization of outside capital, a prepayment penalty will apply on the following schedule: (1) 3% of the amount prepaid until the first anniversary of Note B, (2) 2% of the amount prepaid after the first anniversary until the second anniversary of Note B, and (3) 1% of the amount prepaid after the second anniversary of Note A until the third anniversary of Note B. Note B is secured against all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

 

Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, so long as Note A remains outstanding, C3 will have the right to control the Company's board of directors, which will be limited to no more than five (5) members during this time. Once Note A is paid in full and for so long as Note B remains outstanding, C3 will have the right to elect and control one (1) member seat of the Company's board.

The Securities Purchase Agreement also contains customary covenants, representations and warranties of the parties, including, among others, (1) the grant by the Company to C3 of a lien on all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (2) a pledge with respect to all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries to secure the obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (3) an unconditional and irrevocable guarantee by the Company of the performance of the obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement of the Company and its Subsidiaries, (4) non-compete agreements with certain executive officers of the Company, and (5) the assignment to C3 of key-man life insurance policies for certain of the Company's executive officers. In addition, until all amounts under Note A and Note B are paid in full, the Company has also agreed to comply with certain financial covenants that require the Company to meet pre-established financial ratios. On July 14, 2016, the Company and C3 amended the Securities Purchase Agreement to provide that the Company maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1, and a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 4.25 to 1 for the year 2016 and 2017, and dropping to 2.0 to 1 in each fiscal quarter thereafter. For the purposes of calculating EBITDA, the Company makes certain adjustments and add backs for expenses that are deemed one time. As of December 31, 2016 the Company was not in compliance with its financial covenant with C3 to maintain a net debt to EBITDA ratio of less than 4.25 to 1 for each quarter of 2016. C3 has waived this default. The Company is in compliance with all other financial covenants. The Company is also required to conduct its business in the ordinary course and take certain actions only with C3's prior consent.

 

In conjunction with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the parties entered into other Transaction Agreements on the Effective Date, including a Security Agreement and Subordination Agreement, whereby (1) C3 was granted a security interest in all existing and future property of the Company and its Subsidiaries to secure the performance by the Company and its Subsidiaries of their Obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement and (2) all current and future debt owed to certain of the Company creditors became subordinate and subject in right and time of payment to the prior payment in full of all current and future indebtedness owed to C3.

 

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, Note A had a principal balance of $500,000. Principal is due January 16, 2020.

 

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, Note B had a principal balance of $3,500,000. Principal is due January 16, 2020.

 

Refinancing with Webster Business Credit Corporation

 

On August 25, 2015, the Company established a new revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $7.5 million (the "WBCC Revolving Loan") by entering into a Credit Agreement (the "WBCC Credit Agreement") with Webster Business Credit Corporation, as Lender ("WBCC"). The Company's wholly owned subsidiaries serve as guarantors of the WBCC Revolving. Borrowings under the WBCC Revolving Loan may be used to finance working capital and other general corporate purposes.

 

On August 25, 2015, pursuant to the WBCC Credit Agreement, the Company used an initial advance of $5,125,000 under the Revolving Loan to repay $5,000,000 of principal on Note A issued by the Subsidiaries in favor of C3 in the amount of $5,500,000 on January 16, 2015. Pursuant to the partial repayment to C3, the Company incurred a $250,000 prepayment penalty.

 

In 2015, the Company spent $109,500 in due diligence, pre- closing, and closing costs related to establishing a line of credit with Webster Business Credit (“WBCC”).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2016

 

Borrowings under the WBCC Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company's election, at a rate tied to one of the following rates: (i) the prime lending rate plus 1.25% or (ii) the adjusted daily LIBOR rate plus 2.75%. For the year ending December 31, 2016, the effective interest rate was 3.83%.

 

Borrowings under the WBCC Credit Agreement are senior to Note A and Note B.

 

The outstanding principal amount of any borrowings under the WBCC Revolving Loan will be due and payable on August 25, 2018, subject to an earlier maturity date upon an event of default.

 

The WBCC Credit Agreement contains usual and customary covenants for financings of this type, including, among other things: (i) requirements to deliver financial statements, other reports and notices; (ii) restrictions on indebtedness; (iii) restrictions on dividends, distributions and redemptions of equity and repayment of subordinated indebtedness; (iv) restrictions on liens; (v) restrictions on making certain payments; (vi) restrictions on investments; (vii) restrictions on asset dispositions and other fundamental changes; and (viii) restrictions on transactions with affiliates.

 

The WBCC Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. As of the current date, the Company was in compliance with these metrics.

 

The obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries under the WBCC Credit Agreement are secured by liens and security interests on all assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including a pledge of 100% of the equity of the Subsidiaries.

 

Under the WBCC Credit Agreement, the Company is dependent upon its line of credit to maintain appropriate liquidity. All of the Company's cash flow from operations is required to be swept to its line of credit. The availability from its line is dependent upon accounts receivable and inventory.

 

Under the WBCC Credit Agreement, the Company's interest rate for the WBCC Revolving Loan is linked to indices. Changes in the indices would cause an increase in interest expense.

 

On December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Revolving Loan had a principal balance of $5,339,199 and $5,820,805, which is $5,292,366 and $5,737,473, respectively, net of deferred financing costs.

On January 16, 2015, Andrew Prince resigned as President and Chief Executive Officer.

PRECISION AEROSPACE COMPONENTS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2016

 

Stock Purchase Agreement

 

On the Effective Date, concurrently with the execution of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement by and among Andrew S. Prince, Donald Barger, and David Walters (the “Precision Shareholders”), and C3 and PGH (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, Holdings and C3 agreed to purchase a total of 269,512 restricted shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $500,000 in two installments. The First Closing occurred on the Effective Date resulting in an issuance of 8,401 shares of restricted Common Stock to C3 for a purchase price of $116,571 and 22,715 shares of restricted Common Stock to Holdings for a purchase price of $315,172. On July 7, 2016, pursuant to the Second Closing, the Company issued 85,096and 174,028 shares of restricted Common Stock to C3 and Holdings, respectively for a total purchase price equal to $68,257. The issuance and sale of the restricted shares of Common Stock in each installment was a private placement exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

In order to effect the second installment of restricted Common Stock, the shareholders of the Company approved a resolution to amend its certificate of incorporation (“Certificate Amendment”) to increase the authorized shares of Common Stock from 100,000,000 shares to 800,000,000 shares. The Certificate Amendment was approved by the Company’s Shareholders on the June 6, 2016.

 

The Company has agreed to indemnify C3 and Holdings for all damages, costs, obligations, liabilities, losses, expenses, and fees arising out of a breach of any of the Company’s representations, warranties, covenants, or other agreements contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement.

 

The Stock Purchase Agreement also contains customary covenants, representations and warranties of the parties.

 

Shareholder Agreement

 

On January 16, 2015, the Company, Holdings, and C3 entered into a Shareholder Agreement setting forth the relative rights of the parties with regard to, among other things, the transfer or other disposition of securities of the Company, capital calls, and the governance of the Company. Under the Shareholder Agreement, C3 and Holdings may transfer shares subject to certain rights of first refusal, and tag along-take along rights of the other shareholder. C3 will be permitted to elect one (1) director of the Company and each of its subsidiaries for so long as C3 owns shares of Common Stock and allowed to designate two (2) observers to attend all meetings of the Company's board of directors and one (1) observer for each of the Company's subsidiaries. Certain Company actions including, amongst others, amendments to the Company's organizational documents, bankruptcy filings or other similar liquidation events, the redemption or repurchase of shares of Common Stock, the payment of dividends or other distributions, the issuance of additional shares of Common Stock, incurring indebtedness in excess of $100,000 or entering into a transaction with Company affiliates will require C3's prior written consent.

 

C3 Put

 

C3, our subordinated lender, maintains their right to force the Company to repurchase its shares upon certain triggering events, which can be found in Exhibit 10.2 to that amended Form 8-K/A, filed on August 18, 2015. The Company maintains a liability on its balance sheet that reflects the fair value of the put option. To arrive at this liability the Company performed a valuation based on comparable company metrics. This technique would be considered a Level 3 fair market value approach. The Company performed its valuation in accordance with FASB's "ASC 820 – Fair Value Measurements."

 

The technique used was a multiple of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"). The Company subtracted the total outstanding debt and added back the available cash to arrive at the fair value of the put option. The Company made certain customary adjustments to EBITDA in order to provide a more accurate representation in regards to the Company's financial situation. The Company recorded debt discount of $165,650 based on the C3 Put's fair value at issuance on January 16, 2015. This amount will be amortized over the life of the Company's five year subordinated notes. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company's valuation for the C3 Put was $687,000 and $565,342, respectively.

 

The table below sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities:

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(A) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation our chief executive officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at December 31, 2016 so as to ensure that the information relating to our company required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures due to the existence of material weaknesses.

 

The material weaknesses are as follows:

 

 

· A lack of sufficient resources including a designated chief financial officer and an insufficient level of monitoring and oversight, which restricted the Company’s ability to gather, analyze and report information relative to the financial statement assertions in a timely manner, including insufficient documentation and review of selection of generally accepted accounting principles.

 

 

   

 

· The limited size of the accounting department makes it impractical to achieve an appropriate level of segregation of duties. Specifically, due to lack of personnel, effective controls were not designed and implemented to ensure accounting functions were properly segregated.

 

 

   

 

· Due to a lack of adequate staffing within the finance department and adequate staffing within operational departments that provide information to the finance department, we did not establish and maintain effective controls over certain of our period-end financial close and reporting processes. Specifically, effective controls were not designed and implemented to ensure that journal entries were properly prepared with sufficient support or documentation or were reviewed and approved to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the journal entries recorded.

  
The Company may add additional personnel and procedures, which we believe will remedy these weaknesses in disclosure controls and procedures in future periods. However, there are no assurances we will be able to devote the necessary capital to hire the additional personnel and institute the additional systems, policies and procedures to the level necessary. In that event, there are no assurances that the material weaknesses described above will be timely remediated or not result in errors in our financial statements in future periods.

  

(B) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projection of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Our management has conducted, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, an assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016. Management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting was conducted using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework of 2013. Our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2016, internal controls over financial reporting are not effective.
