Nature of Operations

 

Information Systems Associates, Inc. (Company) was incorporated in Florida on May 31, 1994 to engage in the business of developing software for the financial and asset management industries under the laws of the State of Florida on May 31, 1994. The Company currently derives the majority of its revenue from Mobile Data Center Management™ systems and turnkey data center management solutions to customers primarily located within the United States specializing in various industries. Our products and services include data center asset/inventory management, data center management software and data center data collection.

 

We are currently engaged and plan to continue in the sale of asset management software for corporate information technology data centers and networks. ISA is a "solution provider" positioned to develop and deliver comprehensive asset management systems large data center assets. As part of a long term reorganization of the entity, the Company announced the formation of a new wholly owned subsidiary, TrueVue 360, Inc. TrueVue 360’s mission is to develop and market a new Software as a Service (SaaS) offering for IT asset management. TrueVue 360 will operate independently of the parent company, ISA, which will now focus exclusively on providing independent consulting and professional services through its partners to large data centers worldwide. ISA continues to receive excellent ratings for quality and efficiency.

In addition, the Company continues to evaluate other related technology offerings and has entered into discussions with a new venture whose mission is to develop and market a new platform for “collaborative consumption”, a rapidly growing industry aimed at connecting individuals to services and products. The Company signed a term sheet with the entity pending further collaboration on certain technologies owned by ISA and is anticipating signing definitive agreements in the fourth quarter as part of a larger restructuring of ISA.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which are of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the periods presented are not indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014 or for any other future period. These unaudited condensed financial statements and the unaudited notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 15, 2014 (our “10-K”).

Principled of Consolidation

Principled of Consolidation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary TrueVue 360 Inc. All significant inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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 may differ from these estimates. Most significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include the allowance on accounts receivable, valuation of deferred tax assets, valuation of warrants issued with debt, valuation of beneficial conversion features in convertible debt and valuation of stock-based awards. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-Based Compensation We follow the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”. The fair values of share-based payments are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, based on weighted average assumptions. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of our common stock. We have elected to use the simplified method described in the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 14C to estimate the expected term of employee stock options. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award.   The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent our best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. As a result, if factors change and we use different assumptions, our stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be a cash equivalent.

Concentrations

Concentrations

 

Cash Concentrations:

 

Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions and at times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses related to these balances. There were no amounts on deposit in excess of federally insured limits at the date of this report.

 

Significant Customers and Concentration of Credit Risk:

 

A significant portion of revenues is derived from certain customer relationships. The following is a summary of customers that each represents greater than 10% of total revenues in 2015 and 2014 and total accounts receivable at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively:

March 31, 2015   March 31, 2014     December 31, 2014
                             
Revenue       Accounts Receivable   Revenue       Accounts Receivable
Customer A     100 %   Customer A     0 %   Customer A     48 %   Customer A     100 %
                        Customer B     42 %            
                                             

 

Fair Value Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

 

We measure our financial assets and liabilities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For certain of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Amounts recorded for notes payable, net of discount, and loans payable also approximate fair value because current interest rates available to us for debt with similar terms and maturities are substantially the same.

 

We follow accounting guidance for financial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This guidance does not apply to measurements related to share-based payments. This guidance discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost).

 

The guidance utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

 

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore developed using estimates and assumptions developed by us, which reflect those that a market participant would use.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share (EPS) are computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The dilutive EPS adds the dilutive effect of stock options, warrants and other stock equivalents. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 82,875 shares of common stock and outstanding options to purchase 0 shares of common stock and 130,721 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of convertible debt were excluded from the computation of dilutive earnings per share because the inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Recent Issued Accounting Standards

Recent Issued Accounting Standards

Financial Accounting Standards Board, Accounting Standard Updates which are not effective until after March 31, 2015 are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

    

In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Topic 205-40)”, which requires management to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for each annual and interim reporting period. If substantial doubt exists, additional disclosure is required. This new standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the implementation of this standard to have a material effect on its disclosures.
