2. Summary of significant accounting policies

 

Recently issued accounting standards

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which was subsequently modified in August 2015 by ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date. This guidance will be effective for fiscal years (and interim reporting periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2017. In 2016, the FASB issued additional ASUs that clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations (ASU 2016-08), on identifying performance obligations and licensing (ASU 2016-10), and on narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients (ASU 2016-12) as well as on the revenue recognition criteria and other technical corrections (ASU 2016-20). In 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2017-05, Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20), which was originally issued in ASU 2014-09.

 

Under Topic 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. It also impacts certain other areas, such as the accounting for costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. The standard also requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

 

Management has adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018 using the modified-retrospective approach, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the date of initial application. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, statement of operations and statement of cash flows for the six months period ended June 30, 2018. See Note 3 for disclosures required by ASC 606 and the updated accounting policy for revenue recognition.

 

On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). It requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Public business entities should apply the amendments in ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all public business entities and all nonpublic business entities upon issuance. In July 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2018-11, Lease (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements. The amendments in this Update provide entities with an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new leases standard and provide lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease component and, instead, to account for those components as a single component if the nonlease components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue guidance (Topic 606). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 and ASU 2018-11 on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-05, Income Tax (Topic 740) - Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118. This update adds SEC paragraphs pursuant to the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, which expresses the view of the staff regarding application of Topic 740, Income Taxes, in the reporting period that includes December 22, 2017 - the date on which the Tax Act was signed into law. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2018-05 on its consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the consolidated financial position, statements of operations and cash flows.

3. Revenue Recognition

 

The Company adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method as applied to customer contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. As a result, financial information for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while comparative financial information has not been adjusted and continues to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historical accounting policy for revenue recognition prior to the adoption of ASC 606.

 

Revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company satisfies performance obligations by transferring a promised goods to a customer. Revenue is measured at the transaction price which is based on the amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring the promised goods to the customer. Contracts with customers are comprised of customer purchase orders, invoices and written contracts. Given the nature of our business, customer product orders are fulfilled at a point in time and not over a period of time.

 

The majority of domestic sales contracts transfer control to customers upon receipt of product by customers. The majority of oversea sales contracts transfer control to customers when goods were delivered to the carriers. In most jurisdictions where the Company operates, sales are subject to Value Added Tax (“VAT”). Revenue is presented net of VAT.

 

The Company does not have arrangements for returns from customers and does not have any future obligations directly or indirectly related to product resale by customers. The Company has no sales incentive programs.

 

The following table disaggregates product sales by business segment by geography which provides information as to the major source of revenue. See Note 15 for additional description of our reportable business segments and the products being sold in each segment.

We do not have amounts of contract assets since revenue is recognized as control of goods is transferred. Our contract liabilities consist of advance payments from customers. Our contract liabilities are reported in a net position on a customer-by-customer basis at the end of each reporting period. All contract liabilities are expected to be recognized as revenue within one year and are included in Other payables and accrued liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

8. Taxation

 

Highpower and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries file tax returns separately.

 

1) VAT

 

Pursuant to the Provisional Regulation of the PRC on VAT and the related implementing rules, all entities and individuals ("taxpayers") that are engaged in the sale of products in the PRC are generally required to pay VAT, at a rate of which was changed from 17% to 16% on May 1, 2018 of the gross sales proceeds received, less any deductible VAT already paid or borne by the taxpayers. Further, when exporting goods, the exporter is entitled to a portion of or all the refund of VAT that it has already paid or incurred. The Company’s PRC subsidiaries are subject to VAT of their revenues.

 

2) Income tax

 

United States

 

Tax Reform

 

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was signed into legislation. The 2017 Tax Act significantly revises the U.S. corporate income tax by, among other things, lowering the statutory corporate tax rate from 34% to 21%, imposing a mandatory one-time tax on accumulated earnings of foreign subsidiaries, introducing new tax regimes, and changing how foreign earnings are subject to U.S. tax.

 

On December 22, 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Act enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740, Income Taxes. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Tax Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete but it is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate in the financial statements.

 

As of June 30, 2018, the Company has not completed its accounting for certain tax effects of enactment of the Tax Act; however, the Company has made reasonable estimates of the effects on our existing deferred tax balances and the one-time transition tax. The Company expects to finalize these provisional estimates before the end of 2018 after completing our reviews and analysis, including reviews and analysis of any interpretations issued during this re-measurement period.

 

The one-time transition tax is based on the total post-1986 earnings and profits (“E&P”) for which the Company has previously deferred U.S. income taxes. The Company expects to make adjustments to this provisional estimate based on additional clarifying and interpretative technical guidance to be issued related to the calculation of the one-time transition tax.

 

The Tax Act subjects a U.S. shareholder to tax on Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (GILTI) earned by foreign subsidiaries. The Company currently does not expect to incur GILTI in 2018. The Company has not determined its accounting policy with respect to GILTI and has therefore included the 2018 estimate of current year GILTI, if any, as a period cost and included as part of the estimated annual effective tax rate. The 2018 estimated annual effective tax rate also includes the 2018 impact of all other U.S. tax reform provisions that were effective on January 1, 2018.

Overview

 

Net sales increased by $13.2 million, or 25.6%, during the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same quarter in 2017. Excluding GZ Highpower, net sales increased 32.8% to $64.9 million from $48.9 million. The main driver was our lithium business, including high end consumer products, industrial applications and increased demand for artificial intelligence products.

 

Lithium business net sales increased by $11.5 million, or 31.1%, during the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same quarter in 2017.

 

Ni-MH batteries and accessories net sales increased by $4.6 million, or 39.3%, during the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same quarter in 2017.

 

Gross profit during the second quarter of 2018 was $11.3 million, or 17.4% of net sales, compared to $12.1 million, or 23.3% of net sales, for the comparable period in 2017. This decrease was mainly due to high raw material prices.

 

For 2018, we will continue to drive business growth. As raw material prices may continue at a high level, we will strive to balance our selling price and customer expectations carefully. In the second quarter of 2018, our gross margin increased by 2.2% compared to the first quarter of 2018 and we expect further improvement in the second half of 2018. At the same time, we will seek to continuously improve our labor efficiency and improve material usage for better gross margin.

 

Investment in V-power

 

On February 28, 2018, the Company signed an investment agreement (the “Agreement”) with an aggregate amount of RMB4.9 million (approximately $0.7 million) for 49% of the equity interest of V-power. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company shall complete the capital injection to V-power no later than December 31, 2018. On April 28, 2018, the Company injected RMB2.1million (approximately $0.3 million) to V-power. V-power now focuses on the development of electronic vehicle battery management systems (“EV BMS”) , and in the future V-power will gradually extend the business to design and produce EV power modules, energy storage systems (“ESS”) and related products.

Foreign currency transaction gain (loss)

Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA

 

A table reconciling earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), a non-GAAP financial measure, to the appropriate GAAP measure is included with the Company's financial information below. EBITDA was derived by taking earnings before interest expense (net), taxes, depreciation and amortization. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes this non-GAAP measure is useful to investors as it provides a basis for evaluating the Company's operating results in the ordinary course of its operations. This non-GAAP measure is not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. The Company believes that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with its results of operations as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and that these measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with, and not in lieu of, the corresponding GAAP measures.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We had cash and restricted cash of approximately $37.4 million as of June 30, 2018, compared to $40.5 million as of December 31, 2017.

 

To provide liquidity and flexibility in funding our operations, we borrow funds under bank facilities and other external sources of financing. As of June 30, 2018, we had lines of credit with nine financial institutions aggregating $87.6 million. The maturities of these facilities vary from July 2018 to July 2019. The facilities are subject to regular review and approval. Certain of these bank facilities are guaranteed by our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Dang Yu Pan, pledged by land use right and buildings, and contain customary affirmative and negative covenants for secured credit facilities of this type. Interest rates are generally based on the banks’ reference lending rates. No significant commitment fees are required to be paid for the bank facilities. As of June 30, 2018, we had utilized approximately $65.2 million under such general credit facilities and had available unused credit facilities of $22.4 million.

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $0.1 million for the comparable period in 2017. The net cash increase of $7.7 million used in operating activities is primarily due to an increase of $18.3 million in cash outflow from inventories, an increase of $22.2 million in cash inflow from accounts payable, and an increase of $8.3 million in cash outflow from accounts receivable .

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $5.2 million for the comparable period in 2017. The net cash decrease of $0.8 million used in investing activities is primarily due to an increase of $0.5 million in cash outflow from acquisitions of property, plant and equipment.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $11.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $18.4 million for the comparable period in 2017. The net cash decrease of $6.6 million in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to an increase of $24.9 million in cash outflow from repayment of notes payable, an increase of $12.7 million in cash inflow from proceeds from short-term bank loans, and an increase of $12.7 million in cash inflow from proceeds from notes payable.

 

Our inventory turnover was 3.4 times and 5.2 times for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The average days outstanding of our accounts receivable was 94 days at June 30, 2018, compared to 77 days at December 31, 2017. The lower inventory turnover was mainly due to our reserve on main raw material because of the high raw material price.

 

We believe that available cash and unused credit facilities should enable the Company to meet presently anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months after the date that the financial statements are issued.
