NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements

Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are normal and recurring, have been included in order to make the information not misleading. Information included in the consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2020 has been derived from, and certain terms used herein are defined in, the audited consolidated financial statements of RF Industries, Ltd. as of October 31, 2020 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Form 10-K”) for the year ended October 31, 2020 that was previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Operating results for the six months ended April 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended October 31, 2021. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Form 10-K.

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RF Industries, Ltd. and our four wholly-owned subsidiaries: Cables Unlimited, Inc. (“Cables Unlimited”), Rel-Tech Electronics, Inc. (“Rel-Tech”), C Enterprises, Inc. (“C Enterprises”), and Schroff Technologies International, Inc. (“Schrofftech”). All references to the “Company” collectively refer to RF Industries, Ltd., Cables Unlimited, Rel-Tech, C Enterprises, and Schrofftech. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Risks and uncertainties

In March 2020, the World Health Organization (the “WHO”) declared coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic emergency. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted regional and global economies, disrupted global supply chains, and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the pandemic and related actions taken by domestic and international jurisdictions to prevent disease spread, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.

The outbreak impacted our performance for the six months ended April 30, 2021. During the periods covered by this report, the operations of our three subsidiaries in the Northeast were affected as many of our employees stayed at home and as local customers shut down or otherwise delayed, deferred or cancelled orders for our products. Because of the impact that COVID-19 had on our operations, in May 2020 we applied for and received loans under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) of the CARES Act totaling approximately $2.8 million (“PPP Loans”). See Note 13 on discussions of the PPP Loans.

In March 2021, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) released Notice 2021-20, which retroactively eliminated the restriction that prevented employers who received a PPP loan from qualifying for the Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”), which is a refundable tax credit against certain employment taxes. Upon determination that the employer has complied with all of the conditions required to receive the credit, a receivable is recognized and the credit reduces salaries and wages.  For the six months ended April 30, 2021, we qualified and filed to claim the ERC and have recorded this as an other receivable. 

We considered the impact of the COVID-19 related economic slowdown on our evaluation of goodwill and non-amortizable intangibles impairment indicators as of April 30, 2021. Although no impairment indicators were identified, it is possible that impairments could emerge as the impact of the crisis becomes clearer, and those impairment losses could be material.

Fair value measurement

We measure at fair value certain financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

As of April 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020, the carrying amounts reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and the current portion of the PPP Loans approximated their carrying value due to their short-term nature. See Note 5 for discussion on the fair value of other current liabilities.

Recent accounting standards

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted:

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, which requires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), which pushes back the effective date for public business entities that are smaller reporting companies, as defined by the SEC, to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements adopted:

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. This ASU requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for those leases classified as operating leases under the current GAAP. Under ASU 2016-02, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach, which includes a number of optional practical expedients. We adopted the standard as of November 1, 2019, the beginning of our fiscal 2020, applying the modified retrospective method.  We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance with the new standard, which among other things, allows us to carryforward the historical lease classification.  We elected the policy which allows us to combine the nonlease components with their related lease components rather than separating, and the policy election to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off of the balance sheet.  Operating leases are included in our consolidated balance sheet as operating lease right of use (“ROU”) assets, other current liabilities, and operating lease liabilities. Finance leases are included in finance ROU assets, other current liabilities, and finance lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the duration of the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is recognized on the consolidated statements of operations. The adoption of the standard resulted in a material recognition of additional ROU assets and lease liabilities of approximately $2.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively, as of November 1, 2019, but did not materially affect our consolidated net loss.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the amendments of this update, the goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss should be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The guidance also still gives entities the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. We adopted the standard as of November 1, 2020, the beginning of our fiscal 2021, applying this prospectively. The adoption of the standard did not result in an impairment charge as of April 30, 2021.

Note 2 – Business acquisition

On November 4, 2019, we purchased the business of Schrofftech, a Rhode Island-based manufacturer and marketer of intelligent thermal control systems used by telecommunications companies across the U.S. and Canada, and shrouds for small cell integration and installation. At the closing, in consideration for the Schrofftech business, we paid the sellers $4 million in cash, and, if certain financial targets are met by Schrofftech over a two-year period, agreed to pay additional cash earn-out payments of up to $2.4 million.

The acquisition was accounted for as an acquisition of a business in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting. The acquired assets and assumed liabilities have been recorded at their estimated fair values. We determined the estimated fair values with the assistance of appraisals or valuations performed by an independent third-party specialist. Schrofftech serves the high growth wireless, telecom and cable markets. The Schrofftech business allows us to diversify the types of services provided for our customers in these markets. All manufacturing operations are performed at Schrofftech’s facilities in Rhode Island.

Although the closing occurred on November 4, 2019, the acquisition of Schrofftech is deemed to have become effective for financial accounting purposes as of November 1, 2019. Accordingly, subsequent to November 1, 2019, Schrofftech’s financial results have been included in the results of the Custom Cabling Manufacturing and Assembly segment (“Custom Cabling segment”) as well as in the consolidated statements of operations. Total costs related to the acquisition of Schrofftech were approximately $151,000 and have been expensed as incurred and categorized in selling and general expenses during periods prior to November 1, 2020.

The following table summarizes the components of the purchase price at fair values at November 1, 2019:

The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price at fair value at November 1, 2019:

Note 3 – Inventories and major vendors

Inventories, consisting of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost has been determined using the weighted average cost method. Inventories consist of the following (in thousands): 

For the three months ended April 30, 2021, one vendor accounted for 15% of inventory purchases, while no vendors accounted for more than 10% of inventory purchases for the three months ended April 30, 2020. No vendors accounted for more than 10% of inventory purchases for the six months ended April 30, 2021 or 2020. We have arrangements with our vendors to purchase products based on purchase orders that we periodically issue.

Pursuant to the CARES Act, eligible employers are able to claim an ERC, which is a refundable tax credit against certain employment taxes. If the employer’s employment tax deposits are not sufficient to cover the credit, the employer may get an advance payment from the IRS.  The period assessed for eligibility of the ERC is on a calendar year basis.  For the first and second quarter of calendar year 2021, we were eligible to claim the ERC.  As of April 30, 2021, the remaining portion of the ERC that we have not yet received is included as other receivables in other current assets.

Accrued receipts represent purchased inventory for which invoices have not been received.

The purchase agreement for the Schrofftech acquisition provides for earn-out payments of up to $2.4 million, which are earned through October 31, 2021. The initial earn-out liability was valued at its fair value using an option pricing based approach with a risk-neutral framework using Black Scholes due to the option-like nature of the earn-out payout structure. The earn-out was and will continue to be revalued quarterly using a present value approach and any resulting increase or decrease will be recorded into selling and general expenses. Any changes in the amount of the actual results and forecasted scenarios could impact the fair value. Significant judgment is employed in determining the appropriateness of the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of the earn-out as of the acquisition date. Accordingly, significant variances between actual and forecasted results or changes in the assumptions can materially impact the amount of contingent consideration expense we record in future periods. In determining the fair value of the earn-out liability as of April 30, 2021, we used the most recent projections while giving consideration to actual results versus such projections subsequent to April 30, 2021.

We estimate the fair value of the earn-out liability using an option pricing based approach with a risk-neutral framework using Black Scholes related to Schrofftech calculated at net present value (Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy).

The following table summarizes our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of April 30, 2021 (in thousands):

The following table summarizes our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 31, 2020 (in thousands):

The following table summarizes the changes to the Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value for the three months ended April 30, 2021, January 31, 2021 and for the year ended October 31, 2020 (in thousands):

Note 6 – Earnings (loss) per share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding increased by the effects of assuming that other potentially dilutive securities (such as stock options) outstanding during the period had been exercised and the treasury stock method had been applied. During the three and six months ended April 30, 2020, we reported a net loss and diluted loss per share is computed the same as basic loss per share as the effect of utilizing the fully diluted share count would have reduced the net loss per share which has an anti-dilutive effect.  Therefore, all outstanding stock options are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share.  Potentially issuable securities that are out-of-the-money totaled 321,338 and 392,838 shares for the three months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 331,338 and 392,838 shares for the six months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted per share amounts because of their anti-dilutive effect.

The following table summarizes the computation of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding:

Note 7 – Stock-based compensation and equity transactions

On December 6, 2019, one employee was granted 50,000 incentive stock options. These options vested 10,000 on the date of grant, and the balance vests as to 10,000 shares per year thereafter on each of the next four anniversaries of December 6, 2019, and expire ten years from the date of grant.

On January 9, 2020, we granted the following equity awards to our managers and officers:

On June 30, 2020, one employee was granted 10,000 incentive stock options. These options vested 2,500 on the date of grant, and the balance vests as to 2,500 shares per year thereafter on each of the next three anniversaries of June 30, 2020, and expire ten years from the date of grant.

On January 12, 2021, we granted a total of 33,500 shares of restricted stock and 67,000 incentive stock options to one manager and three officers. The shares of restricted stock and incentive stock options vest over four years as follows: (i) one-quarter of the restricted shares and options shall vest on January 12, 2022; and (ii) the remaining restricted shares and options shall vest in twelve equal quarterly installments over the next three years. All incentive stock options expire ten years from the date of grant.

No other shares or options were granted to company employees during the three and six months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020.

The weighted average fair value of employee stock options that were granted during the six months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 was estimated to be $2.46 and $3.13, respectively, per share, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of our stock price and other factors. We used the historical method to calculate the expected life of the 2021 and 2020 option grants. The expected life represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury rate with a maturity date corresponding to the options’ expected life. The dividend yield is based upon the historical dividend yield.

Company stock option plans

Descriptions of our stock option plans are included in Note 9 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2020. A summary of the status of the options granted under our stock option plans as of April 30, 2021 and the changes in options outstanding during the six months then ended is presented in the table that follows:

Weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding as of April 30, 2021: 6.31 years

Weighted average remaining contractual life of options exercisable as of April 30, 2021: 4.75 years

Weighted average remaining contractual life of options vested and expected to vest as of April 30, 2021: 6.31 years

Aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding at April 30, 2021: $1,161,000

Aggregate intrinsic value of options exercisable at April 30, 2021: $483,000

Aggregate intrinsic value of options vested and expected to vest at April 30, 2021: $1,152,000

As of April 30, 2021, $648,000 and $385,000 of expenses with respect to nonvested stock options and restricted shares, respectively, has yet to be recognized but is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.71 and 1.31 years, respectively.

Non-employee directors receive a compensation package of $50,000 annually, which is paid one-half in cash and one-half through the grant of non-qualified awards. For fiscal 2020, compensation payable to non-employee directors was prorated from November 1, 2019 through August 31, 2020. On November 4, 2019, we granted each of our five non-employee directors 3,270 shares of restricted stock. The number of restricted shares granted to each director was determined by prorating $25,000 for the ten months ending August 31, 2020 and dividing by the 20-day average closing stock price ($6.36). These restricted shares vested ratably through August 31, 2020. As compensation for services to be provided until the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders in September 2021, we granted each of our five non-employee directors 5,757 shares of restricted stock, which number was determined by dividing $25,000 by the 20-day average closing stock price ($4.34). On December 31, 2020, a new director joined the Board of Directors. We granted the new director 3,334 shares of restricted stock as payment for the year ending with the 2021 annual meeting. The number of restricted stock was determined by prorating $25,000 for the 8.5 months of service upon joining the Board of Directors through the 2021 annual meeting and dividing by the 20-day average closing stock price ($5.31).

Non-employee directors who are also a chairperson of a committee of the Board receive additional compensation of $15,000 annually. On June 5, 2020, the Board of Directors revised the committee chair compensation so that all future compensation from July 1, 2020 through the next annual meeting of the stockholders will be payable in shares of common stock rather than cash. Shares issued as compensation will be valued at the closing common stock price on the last day of each quarter. Accordingly, on July 31, 2020, each of the four committee chairpersons was awarded 279 shares at $4.47 per share. We account for these shares as stock-based compensation. On September 15, 2020, each of the four committee chairpersons was awarded 3,454 shares of restricted stock as payment for the $15,000 retainer payable to Chairpersons for the year ending with the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders. The number of restricted shares granted to each chairperson was determined by dividing $15,000 by the 20-day average closing stock price ($4.34).

Stock option expense

During the three months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020, stock-based compensation expense totaled $137,000 and $96,000, respectively, and was classified in selling and general expenses. During the six months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020, stock-based compensation expense totaled $260,000 and $283,000, respectively, and was classified in selling and general expenses.

Note 8 – Concentrations of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents with high-credit quality financial institutions. At April 30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalent balances in excess of federally insured limits in the amount of approximately $13.4 million.

Two customers, both distributors, accounted for approximately 12% and 11% of net sales for the three months ended April 30, 2021, and 14% and 11%, respectively, of net sales for the six months ended April 30, 2021.  These distributors had accounts receivable balances that accounted for 14% and 13%, respectively, of the total net accounts receivable balance at April 30, 2021. The two distributors also accounted for 17% and 11% of net sales for the three months ended April 30, 2020, and 14% and 11%, respectively, of net sales for the six months ended April 30, 2020.  In the same six-month period, another customer, a wireless carrier, accounted for 11% of net sales. The two distributors had accounts receivable balances that accounted for 19% and 14%, respectively, of the total net accounts receivable balance at April 30, 2020. Although these customers have been on-going major customers of the Company, the written agreements with these customers do not have any minimum purchase obligations and they could stop buying our products at any time and for any reason. A reduction, delay or cancellation of orders from these customers or the loss of these customers could significantly reduce our future revenues and profits.

Note 9 – Segment information

We aggregate operating divisions into two reporting segments that have similar economic characteristics primarily in the following areas: (1) the nature of the product and services; (2) the nature of the production process; (3) the type or class of customer for their products and services; (4) the methods used to distribute their products or services; and (5) if applicable, the nature of the regulatory environment. Based upon this evaluation, as of April 30, 2021, we had two segments – RF Connector and Cable Assembly (“RF Connector segment”) and Custom Cabling segment.

The RF Connector segment consisted of one division and the Custom Cabling segment was composed of four divisions. The five divisions that met the quantitative thresholds for segment reporting are the RF Connector and Cable Assembly division (“RF Connector division”), Cables Unlimited, Rel-Tech, C Enterprises, and Schrofftech. While each segment has similar products and services, there was little overlapping of these services to their customer base. The biggest difference in segments is in the channels of sales: sales or product and services for the RF Connector segment were primarily through the distribution channel, while the Custom Cabling segment sales were through a combination of distribution and direct to the end customer.

Management identifies segments based on strategic business units that are, in turn, based along market lines. These strategic business units offer products and services to different markets in accordance with their customer base and product usage. For segment reporting purposes, the RF Connector division constitutes the RF Connector segment, and the Cables Unlimited, Rel-Tech, C Enterprises, and Schrofftech divisions constitute the Custom Cabling segment.

As reviewed by our chief operating decision maker, we evaluate the performance of each segment based on income or loss before income taxes. We charge depreciation and amortization directly to each division within the segment. Accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, ROU assets, goodwill and intangible assets are the only assets identified by segment. Except as discussed above, the accounting policies for segment reporting are the same for the Company as a whole.

All of our operations are conducted in the United States; however, we derive a portion of our revenue from export sales. We attribute sales to geographic areas based on the location of the customers. The following table presents the sales by geographic area for the three and six months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

Net sales, income (loss) before provision (benefit) for income taxes and other related segment information for the three months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 are as follows (in thousands): 

Net sales, income (loss) before provision (benefit) for income taxes and other related segment information for the six months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 are as follows (in thousands): 

Note 10 – Income taxes

We use an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions in which we operate, to determine its quarterly provision (benefit) for income taxes. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.

We recorded income tax provisions of $648,000 and $3,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate was 24.2% for the three months ended April 30, 2021, compared to (1.4%) for the three months ended April 30, 2020. For the six months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020, we recorded income tax provisions (benefits) of $454,000 and ($11,000), respectively. The effective tax rate was 21.8% for the six months ended April 30, 2021, compared to 6.7% for the six months ended April 30, 2020. The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended April 30, 2021 are excluding the PPP Loan forgiveness classified in Other Income. The change in effective tax rate for the six months ended April 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended April 30, 2020 was primarily driven by the disproportionate impact of various permanent book-tax differences with respect to our forecasted book income or loss in each period.

We had $127,000 and $107,000 of unrecognized tax benefits, inclusive of interest and penalties, as of April 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020, respectively. The unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would result in a net tax benefit of $33,000 as of April 30, 2021.

Amortization expense for the six months ended April 30, 2021 and the year ended October 31, 2020 was $252,000 and $692,000, respectively. As of April 30, 2021, the weighted-average amortization period for the amortizable intangible assets is 5.66 years.

Note 12 – Commitments

We have operating leases for corporate offices, manufacturing facilities, and certain storage units. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 3 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 5 years. A portion of our operating leases are leased from K&K Unlimited, a company controlled by Darren Clark, the former owner and current President of Cables Unlimited, to whom we make rent payments totaling $14,000 per month.

We also have other operating leases for certain equipment. The components of our facilities and equipment operating lease expenses for the period ended April 30, 2021 were as follows (in thousands):

Other information related to leases was as follows (in thousands):

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable leases as of April 30, 2021 were as follows:

As of April 30, 2021, operating lease ROU asset was $976,000 and operating lease liability totaled $1.0 million, of which $691,000 is classified as current. There were no finance leases as of April 30, 2021.

Note 13 – Line of credit and PPP loans

In November 2019, we entered into an agreement for a revolving line of credit (“LOC”) in the amount of $5.0 million. Amounts outstanding under the LOC shall bear interest at a rate of 2.0% plus LIBOR Daily Floating Rate (“base interest rate”), with interest payable on the first day of each month. Borrowings under the LOC are secured by a security interest in certain assets of the Company. The LOC contains certain loan covenants. Failure to maintain the loan covenants may constitute an event of default, resulting in all outstanding amounts of principal and interest becoming immediately due and payable. All outstanding principal and interest is due and payable on December 1, 2021. On December 30, 2020, we closed the LOC with no amounts outstanding.

In May 2020 we applied for and received loans under the PPP of the CARES Act totaling approximately $2.8 million (“PPP Loans”). The funds from the PPP Loans were used to retain employees, maintain payroll and benefits, and make lease and utility payments. Without the PPP Loans, we would have made material reductions in our workforce (particularly at Cables Unlimited). As of April 30, 2021, the full amount of the PPP Loans has been forgiven and considered paid in full (including applicable interest).

Note 14 – Cash dividend and declared dividends

We did not pay any dividends during the three or six months ended April 30, 2021. During the three and six months ended April 30, 2020, we paid dividends of $0.02 per share for a total of $195,000 and $388,000, respectively.
