NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(U.S. dollars in thousands, except per share data)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Deswell Industries, Inc. was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on December 2, 1993.
The principal activities of the Company comprise the manufacture and sale of injection-molded plastic parts and components, electronic products assembling and metallic parts manufacturing. The manufacturing activities are subcontracted to subsidiaries operating in Mainland China. The selling and administrative activities were originally performed in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region ("Hong Kong") of the People's Republic of China ("China"). From August 2003, these activities were moved to the Macao Special Administrative Region ("Macao") of China.
As the Company is a holding company, the amount of any dividends to be declared by the Company will be dependent upon the amount which can be distributed from its subsidiaries. Dividends from subsidiaries are declared based on profits as reported in their statutory accounts. Such profits differ from the amounts reported under U.S. GAAP. At March 31, 2011, the retained earnings available for distribution as reflected in the statutory books of the subsidiaries were $56,325.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, include the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of all subsidiaries. Intercompany balances, transactions and cash flows are eliminated on consolidation.
Goodwill
The excess purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired is recorded on the balance sheet as goodwill. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") No. 350, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other", which requires the carrying value of goodwill to be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. The Company regularly conducted annual impairment evaluation. The impairment test requires to estimate the fair value of our reporting units. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the goodwill of that reporting unit is potentially impaired and the Company proceeds to step two of the impairment analysis. In step two of the analysis, the Company measures and records an impairment loss equal to the excess of the carrying value of the reporting unit's goodwill over its implied fair value should such a circumstance arise.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash accounts, interest bearing savings accounts and time certificates of deposit with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.
Marketable securities
All marketable securities are classified as trading securities and are stated at fair market value. Market value is determined by the most recently traded price of the security at the balance sheet date. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on trading securities are included in non-operating income. The cost of investments sold is based on the average cost method and interest earned is included in non-operating income.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined on the weighted average basis. Work-in-progress and finished goods inventories consist of raw materials, direct labour and overhead associated with the manufacturing process. The Company periodically performs an analysis of inventory to determine obsolete or slow-moving inventory and determine if its cost exceeds market value. Write down of potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory are recorded based on management's analysis of inventory levels.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost including the cost of improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
| Leasehold land and buildings | 30 - 50 years |
| Plant and machinery | 5 - 15 years |
| Furniture, fixtures and equipment | 4 - 5 years |
| Motor vehicles | 3 - 5 years |
| Leasehold improvements | 2 - 5 years |
Leases
Leases are classified at the inception date as either a capital lease or an operating lease. For the lessee, a lease is a capital lease if any of the following conditions exist: a) ownership is transferred to the lessee by the end of the lease term, b) there is a bargain purchase option, c) the lease term is at least 75% of the property's estimated remaining economic life or d) the present value of the minimum lease payments at the beginning of the lease term is 90% or more of the fair value of the leased property to the lessor at the inception date. A capital lease is accounted for as if there was an acquisition of an asset and an incurrence of an obligation at the inception of the lease. All other leases are accounted for as operating leases. The Company has no capital leases for any of the periods presented.
Impairment of long-lived assets
Long-lived assets are included in impairment evaluations when events and circumstances exist that indicate the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. In accordance with FASB ASC 360 "Property, Plant and Equipment", the Company assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of long-lived assets by first grouping its long-lived assets with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities (the asset group) and, secondly, estimating the undiscounted future cash flows that are directly associated with and expected to arise from the use of and eventual disposition of such asset group. The Company estimates the undiscounted cash flows over the remaining useful life of the primary asset within the asset group. If the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge to the extent the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. The Company determines fair value through quoted market prices in active markets or, if quotations of market prices are unavailable, through the performance of internal analysis using a discounted cash flow methodology. The undiscounted and discounted cash flow analyses based on a number of estimates and assumptions, including the expected period over which the asset will be utilized, projected future operating results of the asset group, discount rate and long-term growth rate.
In evaluation of undiscounted projected cash-flows associated with those assets, the Company assessed that long-lived assets at March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011 to be less than the fair value and the sum of undiscounted cash flows. Accordingly, the Company impaired that the carrying values of long-lived assets of $176, $8 and $4,474, respectively.
Revenue recognition
Sales of goods are recognized when goods are shipped, title of goods sold has passed to the purchaser, the price is fixed or determinable as stated on the sales contract, and its collectability is reasonably assured. Customers do not have a general right of return on products shipped. The Company permits the return of damaged or defective products and accounts for these actual returns as deduction from sales. Products returns to the Company were insignificant during past years.
Comprehensive income
Other comprehensive income for the years ended March 31, 2009 represented foreign currency translation adjustments and were included in the consolidated statement of operations.
Allowance for doubtful account
The Company regularly monitors and assesses the risk of not collecting amounts owed to the Company by customers. This evaluation is based upon a variety of factors including: ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition, an analysis of amounts current and past due along with relevant history and facts particular to the customer. Based upon the results of this analysis, the Company records an allowance for uncollectible accounts for this risk. This analysis requires the Company to make significant estimates, and changes in facts and circumstances could result in material changes in the allowance for doubtful accounts. Unanticipated changes in the liquidity or financial position of the Company's customers may
require additional provisions for doubtful accounts.
Shipping and handling cost
Shipping and handling costs related to the delivery of finished goods are included in selling expenses. During the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, shipping and handling costs expensed to selling expenses were $1,714, $985 and $863, respectively.
Income taxes
Income taxes are provided on an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Any China tax paid by subsidiaries during the year is recorded. Deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary differences at enacted rates and classified as current or non-current based upon the classification of the related asset or liability in the financial statements. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all, the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company classifies interest and/or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as a component of income tax provisions.
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC No. 740 "Income Taxes" ("ASC 740"), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized by prescribing a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides accounting guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, disclosure and transition.
Foreign currency translation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars as the Company is incorporated in the British Virgin Islands where the currency is the U.S. dollar. The Company's subsidiaries conduct substantially all of their business in Hong Kong dollars, Chinese renminbi or U.S. dollars. The exchange rates between the Hong Kong dollars and the U.S. dollar were approximately 7.7597, 7.7597 and 7.7965 as of March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively. The exchange rates between the Chinese renminbi and the U.S. dollar were approximately 6.8417, 6.8417 and 6.583 as of March 31, 2009, 2010, and 2011, respectively.
All transactions in currencies other than functional currencies during the year are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Monetary items existing at the balance sheet date denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies are translated at period end rates. Gains and losses resulting from the translation of foreign currency transactions and balances are included in the consolidated statement of operations.
Aggregate net foreign currency transaction gain(loss) included in other income were $704, $(43) and $(372) for the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively.
Prior to January 1, 2009, the functional currencies of our subsidiaries were Hong Kong dollars and Chinese renminbi. Effective January 1, 2009, the functional currencies of all our subsidiaries were changed to U.S. dollars. The U.S. dollar is considered by management to be the most appropriate functional currency of Deswell's subsidiaries because over the years, and especially in our year ended March 31, 2009, most of our customers contracted with our subsidiaries in U.S. dollars.
During the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, 72.4%, 62.7% and 55.1% of our sales of plastic products were denominated in U.S. dollars, respectively. During the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, 95%, 95% and 99.8%, respectively, of sales of products in our electronics segment were denominated in U.S. dollars.
Primarily because of the stability of the exchange rate between the Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar, which has existed since the Hong Kong government pegged the exchange rate at HK$7.80 to US$1.00 in 1983, and, to a lesser degree, because steady of appreciation of the Chinese Renminbi to the U.S. dollar, beginning around July 1, 2008, and the relative stability in the exchange rate of the Chinese Renminbi to the U.S. dollar since then, the actual effect of the change in the functional currency to the U.S. dollar was immaterial to the Company's results of operations, liquidity and cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010.
Irrespective of our functional currency, however, if the exchange rate of the Chinese Renminbi to U.S. dollar again becomes volatile, our results of operations would be affected, positively or negatively, depending on the amounts of expenses our subsidiaries pay in Chinese Renminbi and whether the Chinese Renminbi depreciates or appreciates to the U.S. dollar. The exchange rate of the RMB resumed significant appreciation to the US dollar beginning in June 2010 when China's central bank announced that it planned to introduce more flexibility in the management of China's currency and appreciated approximately 4.1% at March 31, 2011 from the exchange rate at March 31, 2010. Accordingly, the Company's operating expenses increased, and the Company's results of operations were negatively impacted, by the appreciation of the RMB to US dollar during the year ended March 31, 2011. If the RMB continues appreciating to the U.S. dollar, our operating costs would continue to increase and our financial results would be adversely affected.
Post-retirement and post-employment benefits
The Company and its subsidiaries contribute to a state pension scheme in respect of its Chinese employees.
Stock-based compensation
The Company adopts ASC No. 718, "Compensation - Stock Compensation", which requires that share-based payment transactions with employees, such as share options, be measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instrument issued and recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period, with a corresponding addition to equity. Under this method, compensation cost related to employee share options or similar equity instruments is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period.
For the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, the Company records stock-based compensation expenses amounted to $62, $125 and $nil in the statement of operations respectively. There is no tax benefit recognized in relation to the stock-based compensation expenses incurred for the three years.
The fair value of options granted in the years ended March 31, 2009 and 2010 were estimated using the Binomial option pricing model with the following assumptions:
| |
2009 |
2010 |
| Risk-free interest rate - weighted average |
2.90% |
2.88% |
| Expected life of options - weighted average |
10 years |
10 years |
| Stock volatility |
40.49% |
47.08% |
| Expected dividend yield |
7.35% |
6.61% |
The Company applied judgment in estimating key assumptions in determining the fair value of the stock options on the date of grant. The Company used historical data to estimate the expected life of options, stock volatility and expected dividend yield. The risk-free interest rate of the option was based on the 10 years U.S. Treasury yield at time of grant.
Net income per share
Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding is adjusted to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. In computing the dilutive effect of potential common shares, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of treasury shares assumed to be purchased with the proceeds from the exercise of options.
Basic net income per share and diluted net income per share calculated in accordance with ASC No. 260, "Earnings Per Share", are reconciled as follows (shares in thousands):

For the years ended March 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, potential common shares of 726,000, 668,500 and 668,500 shares related to stock options are excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share as their exercise prices were higher than the average market price.
19,000 shares related to stock options are excluded from the calculations of diluted net income per share for the year ended March 31, 2011 because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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.
Fair value of financial instruments
The fair value of a financial instrument is defined as the exchange price that would be received from an asset or paid to transfer a liability (as exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments and market rates of interest.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company has adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. It does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information.
Its establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy of valuation techniques based on observable and unobservable inputs, which may be used to measure fair value and include the following:
| Level 1 - | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| Level 2 - | Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. |
| Level 3 - | Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |
Classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Recent changes in accounting standards
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements". ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures and clarifies existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in Codification Subtopic 820-10. ASU 2010-06 amends Codification Subtopic 820-10 to now require that (1) a reporting entity must disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; (2) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements and (3) a reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2010-06 on the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows, but does not expect it to have a material impact.
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-13, "Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades". It addresses the classification of a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying equity security trades. FASB ASC Topic 718, "Compensation-Stock Compensation", was amended to clarify that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity's equity securities trade shall not be considered to contain a market, performance or service condition. Therefore, such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies for equity classification. The amendments will be effective for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010, with early application permitted. The Company evaluated the effect of ASU 2010-13 on its financial statements and has concluded that it would have no impact on its financial positions, results of operation and cash flows.
In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, "When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts". This ASU amends guidance for Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010, with early adoption not permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2010-28 will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04 "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs". This pronouncement is an authoritative guidance to amend certain measurement and disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements to improve consistency with international reporting standards. This guidance is effective prospectively for public entities for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption by public entities prohibited, and is applicable to the Company's fiscal quarter beginning April 1, 2012. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance, but does not expect its adoption will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05 "Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) Presentation of Comprehensive Income". This pronouncement is an authoritative guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income that will require a company to present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive statements. There are no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current GAAP. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. It is applicable to the Company's fiscal year beginning October 1, 2012. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance, but does not expect its adoption will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Under the current BVI law, the Company's income is not subject to taxation. Subsidiaries operating in Hong Kong and China are subject to income taxes as described below, and the subsidiaries operating in Macao are exempted from income taxes. Under the current Samoa Law, subsidiaries incorporated in Samoa are not subject to profit tax as they have no business operations in Samoa.
The provision for current income taxes of the subsidiaries operating in Hong Kong has been calculated by applying the current rate of taxation of 16.5% (2009:16.5%, 2010:16.5%) to the estimated taxable income arising in or derived from Hong Kong, if applicable.
Prior to January 1, 2008, enterprise income tax in China was generally charged at 33%, in which 30% is for national tax and 3% is for local tax, of the assessable profit. For foreign investment enterprises established in a Special Economic Zone or Coastal Open Economic Zone, where the subsidiaries of the Company are located, and which are engaged in productionoriented activities, the national tax rate could be reduced to 15% and 24% respectively. The Company's subsidiaries incorporated in China are subject to China income taxes at the applicable tax rates on the taxable income as reported in their Chinese statutory accounts in accordance with the relevant income tax laws applicable to foreign enterprises. Pursuant to the PRC income tax laws, the subsidiaries are fully exempted from China income tax for two years starting from the first profitmaking year, followed by a 50% tax exemption for the next three years.
From January 1, 2008, with the effect of the new PRC Income Tax Law, the standard income tax rate for all companies has been reduced from the rate of 33% to 25%.
Jetcrown Industrial Shenzhen Limited("JISL"), a fully owned subsidiary deregistered on March 24, 2010, had fully enjoyed the above tax holiday and concessions by December 31, 1995. Under the new Income Tax Law, the tax rate applicable to JISL is 18% and 20% for the calender years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009, respectively.
Dongguan Kwan Hong Electronics Company Limited("DKHE") (a subsidiary of the Company) had fully enjoyed the tax holiday and concessions by December 31, 2004. The applicable tax rate of DKHE for the calendar years ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010 is 25%.
In September 2007, Jetcrown Industrial (Dongguan) Limited ("JIDL") (a subsidiary of the Company) had revised its first and second tax exemption year from the calendar year ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 respectively, to the calendar years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003 respectively. The revision was upon a tax reassessment by the PRC tax authorities during the year ended March 31, 2007 regarding the commencement year of exemption and inter-company sales pricing issues. The tax rate applicable for JIDL for calendar years 2002 to 2006 was 24%. JIDL was entitled to a full tax exemption for each of the calendar years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003 and a 50% exemption for each of the calendar years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006. An aggregate amount of $450 additional income tax provision, which comprised approximately $154, $92, $166 and $38 for taxable calendar years 2004, 2005 and 2006 and the quarter ended March 31, 2007 respectively had been charged to the consolidation income statement for the year ended March 31, 2007. The assessment and payment for income taxes for calendar years 2004 and 2005 were settled and concluded in September 2007 at the amount as provided. The assessment and payment for calendar year 2006 were settled at $101 in January 2008. However, there can be no assurance that the PRC tax authorities will not, in the future, further challenge (i) the reported revenue of JIDL for periods starting from the calendar year ended 31 December 2006; and (ii) revenues reported by JIDL for value-added tax filing purpose. There can also be no assurance that similar reassessments will not be extended to other PRC subsidiaries of the Company. The above reassessments, if conducted in the future, may cause an adverse impact to the net operating results of the Company.
For the calendar year ended December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, the tax rate for JIDL is 25%.
Under applicable PRC tax laws and regulations, arrangements and transactions among related parties may be subject to audit or scrutiny by the PRC tax authorities within ten years after the taxable year when the arrangements or transactions are conducted. The Company is subject to the applicable transfer pricing rules in PRC in connection to the transactions between its subsidiaries located inside and outside PRC. In accordance to Guo Shui Fa [2009] No.2 "Implementation Regulations of Special Tax Adjustments (Provisional)"("Guo Shui Fa [2009] No.2"), which took effect beginning in calendar year 2008 and set out the regulations in relation to transfer pricing, contemporaneous documentation, disclosure and compliance of intercompany transactions, the Company and external consultants have prepared transfer pricing contemporaneous documentations (the "Contemporaneous Documentations") of DKHE and JIDL for the calendar years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009.
In accordance with Guo Shui Fa [2009] No.2, the PRC tax authorities authorities have the right to deem the Company for a tax amount based on the Contemporaneous Documentations or a basis that they considered reasonable.
The amount of current tax represents the estimated deemed profit tax imposed on the Company by the PRC tax authorities for the calendar years ended December 31, 2008, 2009, 2010 and three months period ended March 31, 2011. The amounts have been estimated based on the Contemporaneous Documentations.
The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 740 on April 1, 2007. The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with ASC 740 begins with a determination as to whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is then measured at the largest amount of benefit that if greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement for recognition in the financial statements. There is no material impact on the adoption of ASC 740. The Company classifies interest and/or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax provisions; however, as of March 31, 2011, there is no interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
