SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
Basis of Presentation and Accounting Principles
The Company has prepared the accompanying financial statements on a consolidated basis. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and related statements of income and comprehensive income, and cash flows include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair presentation, prepared on an accrual basis, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended June 30, 2020 and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, 2020.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, which are referred to herein as the “Financial Statements” include the accounts of Concierge and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Wainwright, Gourmet Foods, Brigadier, Original Sprout and Marygold & Co.
All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Financial Statements are in conformity with U.S. GAAP which 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions in the United States, Canada, and New Zealand. Accounts in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000 per depositor, and accounts in Canada are insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation up to CD$100,000 per depositor. Accounts in New Zealand are uninsured. The Company has, at times, held deposits in excess of insured amounts, but the Company does not expect any losses in such accounts.
Accounts Receivable, net and Accounts Receivable - Related Parties
Accounts receivable, net, consist of receivables from the Brigadier, Gourmet Foods and Original Sprout businesses. The Company does not currently maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts as it believes all accounts are collectible. Management regularly reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes customer credit worthiness, customer concentrations, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to determine whether or not an account should be deemed uncollectible. Reserves, if any, are recorded on a specific identification basis. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020, the Company had $23,466 and $9,876, respectively, listed as doubtful accounts.
Accounts receivable - related parties, consist of fund asset management fees receivable from the Wainwright business. Management fees receivable generally consist of one month of management fees which are collected in the month after they are earned. As of September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020, there is no allowance for doubtful accounts as all amounts are deemed collectible.
Major Customers and Suppliers – Concentration of Credit Risk
Concierge, as a holding company, operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries and has no concentration of risk either from customers or suppliers as a stand-alone entity. Marygold & Co., as a newly formed entity, had no revenues and no significant transactions for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Any transactions that did occur were combined with those of Concierge.
Concierge, through Brigadier, is partially dependent upon its contractual relationship with the alarm monitoring company who provides monitoring services to Brigadier’s customers. In the event this contract is terminated, Brigadier would be compelled to find an alternate source of alarm monitoring, or establish such a facility itself. Management believes that the contractual relationship is sustainable, and has been for many years, with alternate solutions available should the need arise. Sales to the largest customer, which includes contracts and recurring monthly support fees, totaled 49% and 52% of the total Brigadier revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The same customer accounted for approximately 31% and 40% of Brigadier's accounts receivable as of the balance sheet dates of September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020, respectively. A second customer accounted for 13% of total sales and 26% of accounts receivable for the period ended September 30, 2020 while not being significant for the period ended September 30, 2019 or for accounts receivable as of June 30, 2020.
Concierge, through Gourmet Foods, and now with the acquisition of Printstock Products Limited on July 1, 2020, has two major customer groups comprising gross revenues: 1) baking, and 2) printing. Within the baking sector there are three major customer groups; 1) grocery, 2) gasoline convenience stores, and 3) independent retailers. The grocery and food industry is dominated by several large chain operations, which are customers of Gourmet Foods, and there are no long term guarantees that these major customers will continue to purchase products from Gourmet Foods, however the relationships have been in place for sufficient time to give management reasonable confidence in their continuing business. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, Gourmet Foods’ largest customer in the grocery industry, who operates through a number of independently branded stores, accounted for approximately 20% of manufacturing sales revenues as compared to 21% for the three months ended September 30, 2019. This customer accounted for 33% of the baking accounts receivable at September 30, 2020 as compared to 15% as of June 30, 2020. The second largest in the grocery industry accounted for approximately 12% and 14% of baking sales revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. This same group accounted for 20% of baking accounts receivable as of September 30, 2020 as compared to 26% as of June 30, 2020. In the gasoline convenience store market Gourmet Foods supplies two major channels. The largest is a marketing consortium of gasoline dealers operating under the same brand who, for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 accounted for approximately 46% and 43%, respectively, of baking gross sales revenues. No single member of the consortium is responsible for a significant portion of Gourmet Foods’ accounts receivable. The third category of independent retailers and cafes accounted for the balance of baking gross sales revenue, however the group members are independently owned and individually responsible for their financial obligations.
The printing sector of Gourmet Foods' gross revenues is comprised of many customers, some large and some small, with one customer accounting for 36% of the printing sector revenues for the three month period ending September 30, 2020 and 39% of the printing sector accounts receivable. No other customers comprised a significant contribution to printing sector sales revenues or accounts receivable as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2020. There was no printing sector of Gourmet Foods in prior periods for comparison. With respect to consolidated risk, the largest customers of Gourmet Foods' accounted for 28%, 14% and 12% of Gourmet Foods' consolidated gross revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020. These same customers accounted for 26%, 12% and 8% of Gourmet Foods' consolidated accounts receivable as of September 30, 2020.
Concierge, through Original Sprout, is not dependent upon any one customer or group of customers on an annualized basis, though due to timing of deliveries a customer may account for a significant portion of our gross revenues during any particular period. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, no customer accounted for a significant portion of our total revenues as compared to one customer accounting for 15% of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019. These customers did not account for any significant portion of our accounts receivable as of September 30, 2020 or as of June 30, 2020, however two different customers who did not account for a significant portion of our revenues did account for 39% and 18% of our accounts receivable as of June 30, 2020, but not as of September 30, 2020. Original Sprout is partially dependent upon its relationship with a product packaging company who, at the direction of Original Sprout, manufactures the products, packages them in appropriate containers, and delivers the finished goods to Original Sprout for distribution to its customers. All of Original Sprout’s products are currently produced by this packaging company, although if this relationship were to fail there are other similar packaging companies available to Original Sprout at competitive pricing.
For our subsidiary, Wainwright, the concentration of risk and the relative reliance on major customers are found within the various funds it manages and the associated three month revenues as of September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019 along with the accounts receivable at September 30, 2020 as compared with June 30, 2020 as depicted below.

Inventories
Inventories, consisting primarily of food products and packaging in New Zealand, hair and skin care finished products and components in the U.S. and security system hardware in Canada, are valued at the lower of cost (determined on a FIFO basis) or net realizable value. Inventories include product cost, inbound freight and warehousing costs where applicable. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made for writing down the inventories to their net realizable value, if lower. For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 impairment to inventory value was recorded as $0 and $0, respectively. An assessment is made at the end of each reporting period to determine what slow-moving inventory items, if any, should be deemed obsolete and written down to their estimated net realizable value. For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the expense for slow-moving or obsolete inventory was $0 and $0, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and leasehold improvements are capitalized. Office furniture and equipment include office fixtures, computers, printers and other office equipment plus software and applicable packaging designs. Leasehold improvements, which are included in plant and equipment, are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the improvement and the length of the lease. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation is computed using the straight line method over the estimated useful life of the asset (see Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of brand names, domain names, recipes, non-compete agreements and customer lists along with the internally developed software in process for the business applications of Marygold to be launched in the coming fiscal year. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the estimated useful life and are evaluated for impairment at least on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company assesses recoverability by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through the discounted expected future cash flows. If the future discounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount of these assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. There was no impairment recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2020 or year ended June 30, 2020.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a purchase businesses combination. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may be impaired. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step test. Under the first step, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, step two does not need to be performed. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an indication of goodwill impairment exists for the reporting unit and the enterprise must perform step two of the impairment test. Under step two, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation. The residual fair value after this allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill. There was no impairment recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2020 or year ended June 30, 2020.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company tests long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. There was no impairment recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2020 or year ended June 30, 2020.
Investments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale securities. The Company measures the investments at fair value at period end with any changes in fair value reflected as unrealized gains or (losses) which is included as part of other (expense) income. The Company values its investments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurement. The changes to past practice resulting from the application of ASC 820 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between: (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company (observable inputs) and (2) The Company’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available under the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The three levels defined by the ASC 820 hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 assets include the following: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs).
Level 3 – Unobservable pricing input at the measurement date for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.
In some instances, the inputs used to measure fair value might fall within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest input level that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue consists of fees earned through management of investment funds, sale of gourmet meat pies and related bakery confections in New Zealand, security alarm system installation and maintenance services in Canada, and wholesale distribution of hair and skin care products. Revenue is accounted for net of sales taxes, sales returns, and trade discounts. The performance obligation is satisfied when the product has been shipped and title, risk of loss and rewards of ownership have been transferred. For most of the Company’s product sales or services, these criteria are met at the time the product is shipped, the subscription period commences, or the management fees are accrued. For our Brigadier subsidiary in Canada, the Company operates under contract with an alarm monitoring company that pays a percentage of their recurring monitoring fee to Brigadier in exchange for continued customer service and support functions with respect to each customer maintained under contract by the monitoring company.
The Company generates revenue, in part, through contractual monthly recurring fees received for providing ongoing customer support services to monitoring company clientele. The five-step process governing contract revenue reporting includes:
1. Identifying the contract(s) with customers
2. Identifying the performance obligations in the contract
3. Determining the transaction price
4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
5. Recognize revenue when or as the performance obligation is satisfied
Transactions involve security systems that are sold outright to the customer where the Company's performance obligations include customer support services and the sale and installation of the security systems. For such arrangements, the Company allocates a portion of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative stand-alone selling price. Revenue associated with the sale and installation of security systems is recognized once installation is complete, and is reflected as security system revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Revenue associated with customer support services is recognized as those services are provided, and is included as a component of security system revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, which for the three months ended September 30, 2020 were approximately US$180,999, or approximately 27% of the total security system revenues. These revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020 account for approximately 2% of total consolidated revenues. None of the other subsidiaries of the Company generate revenues from long term contracts.
Because the Company has no contract with the end user, and the monthly payments for customer support services are made to the Company by the monitoring company who has a contract with the end user, and end user customers are subject to cancellation through no control of the Company; therefore, no deferred revenues or contingent liability reserves have been established with respect to these contracts. The services are deemed delivered as the obligation is acknowledged on a monthly basis.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits or if future deductibility is uncertain.
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Applicable interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the statements of Income.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred. Marketing and advertising costs for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were $801 thousand and $578 thousand, respectively.
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Foreign Currency Translation
We record foreign currency translation adjustments and transaction gains and losses in accordance with ASC 830-30, Foreign Currency Translation. The accounts of Gourmet Foods use the New Zealand dollar as the functional currency. The accounts of Brigadier Security System use the Canadian dollar as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, and operating results are translated at the weighted average exchange rate throughout the period. Foreign currency transaction gains and (losses) can also occur if a transaction is settled in a currency other than the entity's functional currency. Accumulated currency translation gains and (losses) are classified as an item of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the stockholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheet.
Segment Reporting
The Company defines operating segments as components about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performances. The Company allocates its resources and assesses the performance of its sales activities based on the geographic locations of its subsidiaries (Refer to Note 16 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).
Business Combinations
We allocate the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired users, acquired trade names from a market participant perspective, useful lives and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which is one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 a determination was made that no adjustments were necessary
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted
The Company has reviewed new accounting pronouncements issued between September 28, 2020, the filing date of our most recent prior Annual Report on Form 10-K, and the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and has determined that no new pronouncements, apart from Topic 842 described below, issued are relevant to the Company, and/or have, or will have, a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or disclosure requirements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement.
The Company adopted the new standard on July 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method and the transition relief guidance provided by the FASB in ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements. Consequently, the Company did not update financial information or provide disclosures required under the new standard for dates and periods prior to July 1, 2019. The Company elected the package of practical expedients and did not reassess prior conclusions on whether contracts are or contain a lease, lease classification, and initial direct costs. In addition, the Company adopted the lessee practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components for all asset classes and elected to not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less.
Adoption of the new standard resulted in the Company recording operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities of $1,113,840 and $1,150,916 respectively, as of July 1, 2019. The ROU assets were recorded net of $37,076 in deferred rent adjustments that were previously recorded in accrued expenses and deferred rent on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not result in any cumulative-effect adjustments to retained earnings. Additionally, there was no impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income or the unaudited statement of cash flows as a result of the adoption of Topic 842 for the three months ended September 30, 2020.
Refer to Note 15 for additional disclosures over the Company’s leases.
A summary of the effects of the initial adoption of ASU 2016-02 and ASC 842 on July 1, 2019 are as follows:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The amendment is meant to simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models in subtopic 470-20 for convertible instruments. The amendment also changed the method used to calculate dilutes EPS for convertible instruments and for instruments that may be settled in cash. The amendment is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods for those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption this standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
NOTE 3.
|
BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME PER SHARE
|
Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The Company does not have any options or warrants.
Diluted net income per share reflects the effects of shares actually potentially issuable upon conversion of convertible preferred stock.
The components of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows:

BRAND NAME
On August 11, 2015, the Company acquired Gourmet Foods. The fair value on the acquired brand name was estimated to be $61,429 and is amortized over the remaining useful life of 10 years. On June 2, 2016, the Company acquired Brigadier Security Systems. The fair value on the acquired brand name was estimated to be $340,694 and is amortized over the remaining useful life of 10 years. On December 18, 2017 the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Kahnalytics, Inc., acquired the assets of Original Sprout LLC. The fair value of the acquired brand name was determined to be $740,000 and is considered to have an indefinite life. Unlike the brand names Gourmet Foods and Brigadier Security Systems, Original Sprout is an actual product name and recognized associated brand that is identifiable to consumers of the product and is the basis of the value proposition. That brand name will forever be associated with the product offering unless and until such time in the future as the Company may elect to discontinue the use of the brand and move towards establishment of an alternative product offering. On July 1, 2020, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Gourmet Foods, acquired Printstock Products Limited. The fair value of the brand name was determined to be $57,842 and, like that of Original Sprout, would continue to stay in use for an indefinite period of time. Therefore, the Company will test for impairment of the brand names "Original Sprout" and "Printstock" at each reporting interval with no amortization recognized.

|
$500,000 as of September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020 representing 10% equity investment in a registered investment adviser accounted for on a cost basis, minus impairment, which we believe approximates fair value, given the lack of observable price changes in orderly transactions. There was no impairment recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2020 or year ended June 30, 2020;
|
|
(ii)
|

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
|
On March 11, 2020 our wholly-owned subsidiary Gourmet Foods entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire all the issued and outstanding shares of Printstock Products Limited (“Printstock”), a New Zealand private company located in Napier, New Zealand. Printstock is a printer of wrappers distributed to food manufacturers primarily within New Zealand and limited export to Australia. The company will be operated as a subsidiary of Gourmet Foods and is expected to incrementally reduce the cost of goods sold through reduction in the cost of wrappers purchased by Gourmet Foods by elimination of inter-company profit while increasing overall revenues and profits to Gourmet Foods on a consolidated basis through inclusion of Printstock operations. The purchase price was agreed to be NZ$1.9 million subject to adjustment within 90 days of the closing date. The transaction closed on July 1, 2020 with a payment of NZ$1.5M and an estimated final payment due of NZ$420,552 on September 30, 2020. The initial payment was funded, in part, by a loan of NZ$715,000 (US$465,101) by Concierge on June 26, 2020. As of October 5, 2020, agreement had been reached on the final adjustments to the purchase price and the final payment was made. As a result, management was able to complete its purchase price allocation as follows. Included in the allocation are estimated deferred income tax liabilities of US$68,061 pertaining to the increase in the value of fixed assets above their book value and the acquired intangible assets. The amounts have been translated to US currency as of the acquisition date, July 1, 2020.

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial statement reported amounts, and for net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company records a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such asset will not be realized. The Company continues to monitor the likelihood that it will be able to recover its deferred tax assets. If recovery is not likely, the Company must increase its provision for income taxes by recording a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets.
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the authoritative guidance on income taxes under which the Company may only recognize or continue to recognize tax positions that meet a "more likely than not" threshold. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the provision for income taxes.
As of September 30, 2020, the Company's total unrecognized tax benefits were approximately $0.3 million, which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. The Company will recognize interest and penalties, when they occur, related to uncertain tax positions as a component of tax expense. There is no interest or penalties to be recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.
The Company is required to make its best estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year and use that rate to provide for income taxes on a current year-to-date basis. The Company recorded tax expense of $766 thousand and $29 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the mix of non-deductible items. The effective tax rate could fluctuate in the future due to changes in the taxable income mix between various jurisdictions.
The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal, various states, Canada and New Zealand tax jurisdictions. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply. The Company’s U.S. tax years 2016 through 2019 will remain open for examination by the federal and state authorities which is three and four years, respectively. The Company’s tax years from 2016 through 2019 remain open for examination by Canada and New Zealand authorities. As of September 30, 2020, there were no active taxing authority examinations.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
|
Lease Commitments
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, accrued expenses, and long-term operating lease liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In determining the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. The operating lease right-of-use assets also include any lease payments made at or before the commencement date and are reduced by any lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or not terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise any such options. For the majority of its leases, the Company concluded that it is not reasonably certain that any renewal options would be exercised, and, therefore, the amounts are not recognized as part of operating lease right-of-use assets nor operating lease liabilities. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, and certain office equipment leases which are deemed insignificant, are not recorded on the balance sheet and expensed as incurred and included within rent expense under general and administrative expense. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term.
The Company’s most significant leases are real estate leases of office, warehouse and production facilities. The remaining operating leases are primarily comprised of leases of printers and other equipment which are deemed insignificant. For all operating leases, the Company has elected the practical expedient permitted under Topic 842 to combine lease and non-lease components. As a result, non-lease components, such as common area or equipment maintenance charges, are accounted for as a single lease element. The Company does not have any finance leases.
Fixed lease expense payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments vary because of changes in facts or circumstances occurring after the commencement date, other than the passage of time. Certain of the Company’s operating lease agreements include variable payments that are passed through by the landlord, such as insurance, taxes, and common area maintenance. Variable payments are deemed immaterial, expensed as incurred, and included within rent expense under general and administrative expense.
The Company leases various facilities and offices throughout the world including the following subsidiary locations:
Gourmet Foods has operating leases for its office, factory and warehouse facilities located in Tauranga, New Zealand, and facilities leased by its newly acquired subsidiary, Printstock, in Napier, New Zealand, as well as for certain equipment including printers and copiers. These leases are generally for three-year terms, with some options to renew for an additional term. The leases mature between August 2021 and September 2022, and require monthly rental payments of approximately US$21,911 (GST not included) translated to U.S. currency as of September 30, 2020. Brigadier leases office and storage facilities in Regina, Saskatchewan. The minimum lease obligations for the Regina facility require monthly payments of approximately US$2,464 translated to U.S. currency as of September 30, 2020. Original Sprout currently leases office and warehouse space in San Clemente, CA under a three-year lease agreement expiring or renewing at March 1, 2021. Minimum monthly lease payments are approximately $8,277. Wainwright leases office space in Walnut Creek, California under an operating lease which expires in December 2024. Minimum monthly lease payments are approximately $12,000 with increases annually.
For the three month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the combined lease payments of the Company and its subsidiaries totaled $164,504 and $96,524, respectively, and recorded under general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of September 30, 2020 the Consolidated Balance Sheets included operating lease right-of-use assets totaling $816,328, recorded net of $37,480 in deferred rent, and $852,195 in total Operating lease liabilities.
Future minimum consolidated lease payments for Concierge and its subsidiaries are as follows:

The weighted average remaining lease term for the Company's operating leases was 4.04 years as of September 30, 2020 and a weighted-average discount rate of 5.8% was used to determine the total operating lease liabilities.
Additionally, Gourmet Foods entered into a General Security Agreement in favor of the Gerald O’Leary Family Trust and registered on the Personal Property Securities Register for a priority sum of NZ$110,000 (approximately US$72,603) to secure the lease of its primary facility. In addition, a NZ$20,000 (approximately US$13,201) bond has been posted through ANZ Bank and secured with a cash deposit of equal amount to secure a separate facilities lease. The General Security Agreement and the cash deposit will remain until such time as the respective leases are satisfactorily terminated in accordance with their terms. Interest from the cash deposit securing the lease accumulates to the benefit of Gourmet Foods and is listed as a component of interest income/expense on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.
Other Agreements and Commitments
USCF manages four funds (BNO, CPER, UGA, UNL) which have expense waivers provisions, whereby USCF will reimburse funds when fund expenditure levels exceed certain threshold amounts. As of September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020 the expense waiver payable was $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively. USCF has no obligation to continue such payments for these four funds into subsequent periods.
As Marygold builds out its application it enters into agreements with various service providers. As of September 30, 2020 Marygold had future payment commitments with its primary service vendors totaling $647,000 including $47,000 due in 2021 and approximately $300,000 due in 2022 and 2023, respectively.
Litigation
From time to time, the Company and its subsidiaries may be involved in legal proceedings arising mainly from the ordinary course of their respective businesses. Currently, the legal proceedings pending against the Company and its subsidiaries are summarized in Part II, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. As of September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020, the Company has not accrued any liabilities for legal loss contingencies.
Retirement Plan
Wainwright's wholly owned subsidiary USCF, has a 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan covering its employees who are over 21 years of age and who have completed a minimum of 1,000 hours of service and have worked for USCF for one or more years. Participants may make contributions pursuant to a salary reduction agreement. In addition, USCF makes a safe harbor matching contribution. Quarterly profit sharing contributions paid totaled approximately $30 thousand and $25 thousand for each of the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

SEGMENT REPORTING
|
With the acquisition of Wainwright Holdings, Gourmet Foods, Ltd., Brigadier, and the launch of the Original Sprout business unit of Kahnalytics, the Company has identified four segments for its products and services; U.S.A. investment fund management, U.S.A. beauty products, New Zealand food industry and Canada security alarm systems. Our recently incorporated subsidiary, Marygold & Co., has not begun operations so the accounts have been consolidated with those of parent and not yet identified as a separate segment. Our reportable segments are business units located in different global regions. The Company’s operations in the U.S.A. include the manufacture and wholesale distribution of hair and skin care products by Original Sprout and the income derived from management of various investment funds by our subsidiary Wainwright. In New Zealand operations include the production, packaging and distribution on a commercial scale of gourmet meat pies and related bakery confections, and the printing of specialized food wrappers through our wholly owned subsidiary Gourmet Foods, Ltd. and their subsidiary, Printstock Products Limited. In Canada we provide security alarm system installation and maintenance services to residential and commercial customers sold through our wholly owned subsidiary Brigadier. Separate management of each segment is required because each business unit is subject to different operational issues and strategies due to their particular regional location. The Company accounts for intra-company sales and expenses as if the sales or expenses were to third parties and eliminates them in the consolidation. Amounts are adjusted for currency translation as of the balance sheet date and presented in US dollars.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated subsequent events for recognition and disclosure through the date the financial statements were issued or filed. Nothing has occurred outside normal operations since that required recognition or disclosure in these financial statements other than the items noted below.
On October 5, 2020, our wholly owned subsidiary in New Zealand, Gourmet Foods, reached agreement on the final purchase price payment in the acquisition of Printstock Products Ltd., a printer of food wrappers based in Napier, New Zealand. Accordingly, the Company increased the amount of funds loaned pursuant to the intercompany debt facility with Gourmet Foods through transfer of NZ$375,000 (approximately US $248,700). The final payment of NZ$420,552 (approximately US$277,577) was subsequently made by Gourmet Foods to the seller. The primary reason for the acquisition was to diversify our portfolio of operating companies and to improve profitability through vertical integration of the supply chain with Gourmet Foods, as Printstock Products provides a significant amount of packaging used by Gourmet Foods.
