Management’s Discussion and Analysis is intended to be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and the integral notes (“Notes”) thereto for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. The following statements may be forward-looking in nature and actual results may differ materially. All dollar amounts in this Annual Report are expressed in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Item 1. Business.

For over 35 years, Electronic Systems Technology, Inc. (“EST”, “us”, “we”, “our” or the “Company”) has specialized in the development and manufacturing of digital data (non-voice) radio transceivers for use in industrial wireless networking applications. With reliance on wireless communication in the modern world, the global modernization of industrial control systems now requires the benefits gained by use of wireless technology. EST designs, manufactures, develops and produces these specialized, hardened products uniquely designed to operate and survive in these difficult environments in which these systems must perform.

The Company’s ESTeem® line of products provide innovative communication solutions for harsh environment applications not served or that are underutilized by conventional, commercial grade communication systems. Our products are part of the ESTeem® Industrial Wireless Solutions for commercial, industrial, and government arenas both domestically and internationally. We market through direct sales, sales representatives, resellers and system integrators

EST was incorporated in the State of Washington in February 1984 and was granted a United States Patent for the “Wireless Computer Modem” in May 1987, and Canadian patent in October 1988. We registered and commenced building brand recognition on the trade name of “ESTeem® Wireless Modems” in 2007. After reviewing for marketability and profitability, our strategy is to provide product improvements and enhancements that incorporate technological developments in response to customer needs and market opportunities arising from changes in FCC regulations or technological developments.

Development efforts in 2021 were focused primarily on software enhancements and hardware maintenance for the ESTeem® Horizon Series. These next generation industrial wireless products will improve our networking capability with higher data rates, improved security, improved support features and updates to the latest wireless standards.

In an effort to maintain and expand our customer base in the industrial control marketplace, we team with major automation hardware vendors such as Rockwell Automation. Our 30-year relationship with Rockwell Automation’s Encompass Program delivers significant benefits via increased exposure to markets that would not otherwise be available to us. Rockwell Automation has the largest market share in the United States and is a major entity in the world-wide automation and controls marketplace.

PRODUCTS AND MARKETS

ESTeem® industrial wireless products provide communication links between computer networks, network enabled devices and mobile devices without cables. The widespread use of networked computer systems in business, industry and public service and the adoption of mobile devices in all aspects of modern life has created an environment where the wireless network is no longer a convenience but a necessity. As wireless networking proliferates through the modernization of the industrial sector the need for our products, which are specifically designed for rigors of operation in harsh environments, is increasing dramatically. Wireless networks are the backbone connections to the Internet for cloud-based services such as the Internet of Things (“IoT”) and Industrial Internet of Things (“IIoT”).

All of the ESTeem® models come with industry standard Ethernet (Internet) communication ports and legacy serial ports to provide the broadest range of connections for both new and legacy hardware. The combined features such as AES 128 or AES 256 security encryption, self-healing repeaters, mesh networking, long range operation and outdoor weatherproof cases make the ESTeem® products unique in our market space.

PRODUCT LINES

We manufacture nine (9) models of the ESTeem® industrial wireless modems that operate in frequency from 150 MHz to 5.8 GHz. A wireless modem is a hardware device for sending and receiving data over a radio carrier and is the foundation of our industrial wireless solution. Each model will fit best in a specific application based upon several factors such as distance, required data rate and Federal Communication Commission (“FCC”) licensing requirements. Each wireless network is discussed in detail with the end customer to determine the best overall solution for their application. No single model or frequency band can solve all applications and having a diverse product selection is critical for expanding our customer base. The following is a summary of our product offering.

ADDITIONAL PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

Various accessories to support the above products, e.g., antennas, power supplies and cable assemblies, are purchased from other manufacturers and resold by us to support the application of our industrial wireless modems for repairs and upgrades. To assist in the application of ESTeem industrial wireless modems, we also offer professional services, including site survey testing, system start-up, and custom engineering.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AND NEW PRODUCTS

Our products compete in an environment of rapidly changing technology which results in the necessity for continuous updates and enhancements. Research and Development expenditures for new product development and improvements of existing products for 2021 and 2020 were $212,397 and $200,024 respectively. None of our research and development expenses were paid directly by any of our customers. We contract with third parties for software development and hardware design as needed. Development efforts during 2021 were focused primarily on software enhancements for the ESTeem® Horizon Series and the redesign of the Horizon900. Research and development expenditures will continue, in order to meet our customers’ evolving needs

MARKETING, CUSTOMERS AND SUPPORT

The majority of our products sold during 2021 were through the reselling efforts of non-exclusive, non-stocking distributors and resellers, and the remainder our sales were direct to end-users. Orders are generally place on an “as needed basis”. Shipping of products is usually completed 1 to 15 working days after receipt of a customer order, with the exception of ongoing scheduled projects and custom designed equipment for specific applications. Our sales order backlog at year end was $81,293.

We advertise in trade publications and attend trade shows specifically targeting industrial automation systems. We provide support personnel and maintain an internet web site to provide access to product and technical information for customers. We provide technical support and service for our products and installations through phone support, field technicians and internet sources. High quality customer support is vital to differentiate ourselves in our marketplace. We intend to maintain this high level of customer support by investing in our customer service programs.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION

To protect the Company against unauthorized disclosure of proprietary information belonging to the Company, all employees, dealers, distributors, original equipment manufacturers, sales representatives and other persons having access to confidential information regarding Company products or technology are bound by nondisclosure agreements. Rights to the ESTeem® Wireless Modems, trademark were renewed in 2014. The initial patents granted in 1987 and 1988 have expired and we currently have no patents on any of our products.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

For operation in the United States, the ESTeem® industrial wireless products require FCC type acceptance which is granted for devices demonstrating operation within mandated and tested performance criteria. All of our products requiring FCC type acceptance have been granted such acceptance, and all except the Horizon4.9 have been granted such acceptance in Canada.

The ESTeem® industrial wireless products that operate in the FCC licensed frequency band require licensing under Part 90 of the FCC Rules and Regulations which must be applied for by the end user. We provide information to customers to assist in the application for FCC consumer licenses, although we cannot guarantee FCC licenses in a given frequency spectrum for a particular application will be received.

While there can be no assurance that future FCC regulations will not have material adverse effects on our operations, we are unaware of any such existing or proposed FCC regulations at this time.

SOURCE OF SUPPLY AND MANUFACTURING

Components are purchased through a number of distributors and key component suppliers, such as Hitachi, Motorola, and others, some of which have long lead times. Although these components could be replaced or substituted by other products, if necessary, a significant interruption or delay in their availability could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Approximately 30% of the Company’s inventory at December 31, 2021 consisted of parts having lead times ranging from 12 to 30 weeks. Some parts are maintained at high levels to assure availability to meet production requirements, thus, accounting for a significant portion of the Company’s inventory value. Based on past experience with component availability, distributor relationships, and inventory levels, we do not foresee shortages of materials. However, developments in the electronic component marketplace, which are also used in cellular phones, personal technology devices and other technology devices, have the potential of creating negative availability and delivery issues for components used by us. Although we have been able to procure parts on a timely basis as of the date of this report, however procurement cannot be guaranteed in the future. If shortages were to occur, material interruption of production and product delivery to customers would result.

The Company contracts with multiple companies for manufacturing of sub-assemblies and some engineering assistance services as needed. By contracting with these companies, the Company is able to avoid staff fluctuations associated with operating its own manufacturing and reduced capital investments in specialized manufacturing equipment. We review the costs for the services provided by these companies and regularly submits Requests for Quotes (RFQ) to multiple suppliers of these operations. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, and “Financial Statements”.

ACCESS TO COMPANY INFORMATION

Electronically filed reports may be accessed at www.sec.gov or via the Company’s website at www.esteem.com. We make available on our website such reports as soon as reasonably practicable after they are filed with the SEC.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2021, we employ 9 persons on a full-time basis (4 in sales/marketing, 1 in technical support, 3 in engineering/manufacturing, and 1 in finance and administration). The Company’s operations are dependent upon key members of its engineering and management personnel, which, if lost to the Company, could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Our common stock value and our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition are subject to various risks, including, but not limited to those set forth below. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our common stock, business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. These risk factors should be carefully considered together with the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements.” This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect the Company’s forward-looking statements. Some of the important risks and uncertainties that could affect forward-looking statements are described further under the sections titled “Risk Factors and Uncertainties”, “Description of Business” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” of this Annual Report. If any of the events described in the risk factors below actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer significantly. In such case, the value of your investment could decline and you may lose all or part of the money you paid to buy our common stock. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual events or results to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation:

We cannot predict whether we will be able to sustain revenue growth, profitability or positive cash flow. Our products are sold in highly competitive markets. Our revenues and operating results may be negatively affected by technology changes in our markets, economic conditions in our markets, and the level of competition in our markets.

Our marketing efforts may be unsuccessful due to limited marketing and sales capabilities. Our limited national advertising and sales coverage may result in our markets not being fully penetrated. The lack of market penetration may result in an adverse effect on our revenues. We must continue to develop and maintain appropriate marketing, sales, technical, customer service and distribution capabilities, or enter into agreements with third parties to provide these services, to successfully market our products. A failure to develop these capabilities or obtain third-party agreements could adversely affect us.

We may be unable to produce products for sale if we are unable to obtain component materials. Our products require highly specialized components, which are subject to rapid obsolescence, limited availability and design change. Many of the components in our products are also used in cellular phone, pagers and other technology devices. If we cannot obtain material to produce products, our sales revenues will be negatively impacted.

Our success depends on our ability to retain key management personnel. The success of our Company depends in large part on our ability to attract and retain highly qualified management, administrative, manufacturing, sales, and research and development personnel. Due to the specialized nature of our business, it may be difficult to locate and hire qualified personnel. Our success is significantly dependent on the performance and continued service of key members of Management, such as Chief Executive Officer, Michael Eller, and certain other key employees. If the services of any members of Management become unavailable for any reason, our business and prospects could be adversely affected. Although we have been successful in retaining highly capable and qualified management in the past, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so in the future.

We may be adversely affected by government regulation. The Federal Communication Commission (FCC) governs use of the products we sell. If the FCC were to implement rules detrimental to our products and the markets in which they are offered, our operations would be negatively impacted.

Rapid technological changes in our industry may adversely affect us if we do not keep pace with advancing technology. The wireless communication market is characterized by rapidly advancing technology. Our success depends on our ability to keep pace with advancing technology, processes and standards, such as cellular telephone based technology. We intend to continue to develop and enhance our products to meet perceived market opportunities. However, our development efforts may be rendered obsolete by research efforts and technological advances made by others, and devices other than those we currently produce may prove more advantageous.

We have material weaknesses in our internal controls which may result in us not being able to prevent or detect a material misstatement of our financial statements, which could harm our business and result in regulatory scrutiny. Pursuant to the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”), Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting for the year ending December 31, 2021. We determined that there continues to be material weakness affecting our internal control over financial reporting and, as a result of that weakness, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2021. We have not maintained effective controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties due to our limited number of employees in finance and administration. The same employee is responsible for the initiating and recording of transactions, thereby creating segregation of duties weaknesses. Due to this weakness and absence of sufficient mitigating controls, we determined that this control deficiency resulted in a more than remote likelihood that material misstatement or lack of disclosure within the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Avenues for mitigating our internal control weaknesses have been evaluated but mitigating controls have been deemed to be impractical and prohibitively costly due to the size of our organization at the current time. The material weakness in our internal controls may subject us to regulatory scrutiny with undetermined consequences.

The market for our common stock is limited and our shareholders may have difficulty reselling their shares when desired or at attractive market prices. Our stock price and our listing may make it more difficult for our shareholders to resell shares when desired or at attractive prices. Our Company stock trades on the “over-the-counter” market and is listed on OTCQB tier of the OTC Markets. Our common stock has continued to trade in low volumes and at low prices. Some investors view low-priced stocks as unduly speculative and therefore not appropriate candidates for investment. Many institutional investors have internal policies prohibiting the purchase or maintenance of positions in low-priced stocks.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

None.

Item 2. Properties.

We do not own any real property, plants, mines, or any other materially important physical properties. The Company’s administrative offices, inventory and laboratories are located in leased facilities at 415 N. Roosevelt Street, STE B1, Kennewick, Washington. The Company leases approximately 5,270 square feet of office and laboratory space by a lease agreement with the Port of Kennewick in Kennewick, Washington. As of December 31, 2021, the total monthly lease cost, including tax, is $3,687 The lease initially covered a period of two years, expiring September 2022.

We also own miscellaneous assets, such as computer equipment, laboratory equipment, and furnishings. We maintain insurance in such amounts and covering such losses, contingencies and occurrences deemed adequate to protect our property. Insurance coverage includes a comprehensive liability policy covering legal liability for bodily injury or death of persons, and for property owned by, or under our control, as well as damage to the property of others. We also maintain fidelity insurance which provides coverage to the Company in the event of employee dishonesty.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

EST is not a party to any material legal proceedings and, to management’s knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened or contemplated.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosure.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Management’s discussion and analysis is provided as supplement to, and is intended to be read in conjunction with, the Company’s audited financial statements and the accompanying integral notes (“Notes”) thereto. The following statements may be forward-looking in nature and actual results may differ materially.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL: We specialize in the manufacturing and development of data radio products. The Company offers product lines which provide innovative communication solutions for applications not served by existing conventional communication systems. We offer product lines in markets for process automation in commercial, industrial and government arenas domestically as well as internationally. We market our products through direct sales, sales representatives, and domestic, as well as foreign, resellers. Operations are sustained solely from revenues received through sales of its products and services.

As a result of COVID-19, and governmental responses thereto, are experiencing some negative impacts to our business, primarily as a result of reductions in staffing by our customers, and their customers, which is lengthening our normal sales cycles. Many of our customers are also restricting visits from vendors. All of our planned trade shows and sales presentations have been canceled or postponed as a result of the risks associated with face to face meetings. We have utilized various platforms to provide current customers and potential customers with presentations about our products and services. We have also experienced some delays in our supply chain but none of these COVID-19 related disruptions, to the supply chain, has been significant at this point.

FISCAL YEAR 2021 vs. FISCAL YEAR 2020

GROSS REVENUES: Total revenues for the fiscal year 2021 were $1,512,028 reflecting an increase of 23.4% from $1,225,372 in gross revenues for fiscal year 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2021, two customers sales accounted for more than 10% of the total sales revenues. The increase in total revenues is the result of increased product sales during 2021. Domestic Sales for the fiscal year were $1,341,287 compared to $927,494 in 2020. Sales to Foreign Customers for the fiscal year were $170,741 compared to $297,878 in 2020. Product sales increased to $1,458,328 in 2021, as compared to 2020 sales of $1,181,022 reflecting an increase of 23.5%.

Interest revenues during 2021 decreased to $2,489 from 2020 level of $10,736 due to the decreased interest rates for the certificates of deposit held by the Company and the reduction of the value of the certificates held during 2021.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had sales backlog of $81,293. The Company’s customers generally place orders on an “as needed basis”. Shipment of the Company’s products is generally completed within 1 to 15 working days after receipt of customer orders, with the exception of ongoing, scheduled projects, and custom designed equipment for specific customer applications.

COST OF SALES: Cost of Sales, as a percentage of net sales, was 49.2% and 49.7% respectively, for 2021 and 2020. Cost of Sales variances are the result of differences in the product mix sold and occurrences of obsolete inventory expense, as well as differences in the price discounting structure for the mix of products sold during the period.

INVENTORY: The Company’s year-end inventory values for 2021 and 2020 were as follows:

	2021	2020
Parts	$ 92,751	$ 99,303
Work in progress	171,705	275,230
Finished goods	237,377	257,174
TOTAL	$ 501,833	$ 631,707

The Company’s objective is to maintain inventory levels as low as possible to provide maximum cash liquidity, while at the same time meet production and delivery requirements.

OPERATING EXPENSES: Operating expenses increased to $957,654 in 2021 from 2020 levels of $839,173. Significant changes in expenses are comprised of the following components: Payroll and related expenses $19,911 increase, services purchased $109,432 increase, Travel $15,191 increase Depreciation expense decreased during 2021 to $1,784 from 2020 levels of $5,169 due to the Company’s decreased capital purchases.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s revenues and expenses resulted in net income of $92,989 for 2021, an increase from a net loss of $202,179 for 2020. At December 31, 2021, the Company’s working capital was $1,6410,537 compared with $1,676,530 at December 31, 2020. The Company’s operations rely solely on the income generated from sales. The Company’s major capital resource requirements are payment of employee salaries and benefits and maintaining inventory levels adequate for production. Extended availability for components critical for production of the Company’s products, ranging from 12 to 30 weeks, require the Company to maintain high inventory levels. It is management’s opinion that the Company’s working capital as of December 31, 2021 is adequate for expected resource requirements for the next twelve months. During the twelve month period ending December 31, 2021, the Company had positive cash flow of $347,506.

The Company’s current asset to current liability ratio at December 31, 2021 was 12.7:1 compared to 20.7:1 at December 31, 2020. The decrease in current asset ratio is the result of the Company having increased accounts payable for year-end 2021 when compared with year-end 2020. The Company’s liquid resources at December 31, 2021, including cash and cash equivalent and certificates of deposits, were $1,055,616, compared to $808,109 at December 31, 2020. The increase in liquid resources is the result of the 2021 operating income. The Company’s accounts receivable at December 31, 2021 were $166,303, compared to $288,884 at December 31, 2020. Management believes that all Company accounts receivable as of December 31, 2021 are collectible and does not have a reserve for uncollectable accounts.

The Company believes the level of risk associated with customer receipts on export sales is minimal. Foreign shipments are made only after payment has been received or on Net 30 day credit terms to established foreign companies with which the Company has distributor relationships. Foreign orders are generally filled as soon as they are received therefore; foreign exchange rate fluctuations do not impact the Company.

Inventories at December 31, 2021 were $501,833, reflecting a decrease from December 31, 2020 of $631,707. The decrease in inventory between December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, is due to the delays in the supply chain.

We had capital expenditures $1,082 during 2021. The Company intends on investing in additional capital equipment as deemed necessary to support development and manufacture of current and future products.

As of December 31, 2021, our current liabilities increased to $137,637 from $84,916 at December 31, 2020. The increase in current liabilities was impacted by a increase in accounts payable to $70,686 from $21,113.

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Inflation had minimal adverse effect on the Company’s operations during 2021. Minimal adverse effect is anticipated during 2022.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS: The above discussion may contain forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. These factors are more fully described in the “Risk Factors” section of Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition to the factors discussed above, among other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: competitive factors such as rival wireless architectures and price pressures; availability of third party component products at reasonable prices; inventory risks due to shifts in market demand and/or price erosion of purchased components; change in product mix, rapid advances in competing technologies and risk factors that are listed in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Electronic Systems Technology, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Electronic Systems Technology, Inc. (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

Supplemental Information

The supplemental schedule of operating expenses for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 (“the supplemental information”) has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Company’s financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the supplemental information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business Organization

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Washington on i February 10, 1984, primarily to develop, produce, sell and distribute wireless modems that will allow communication between peripherals via radio frequency waves.

Effective September 13, 2007, the Company announced their establishment of a “doing business as” or dba structure, based on the Company’s registered trade name of ESTeem® Wireless Modems.

As a result of COVID-19, and governmental responses thereto, the Company has experienced some negative impacts to its business, primarily as a result of reductions in staffing by customers, and their customers, which is lengthened normal sales cycles. Many of customers also restricted visits from vendors. All of planned trade shows and sales presentations were canceled or postponed as a result of the risks associated with face to face meetings. Management utilized various platforms to provide current customers and potential customers with presentations about products and services. The Company also experienced and continue to experience delays in its supply chain. While many of the past negative impacts have lessened over time, if new outbreaks, or strains, of Covid-19 occur and/or if governments revert to more restrictive measures with respect to travel and business operations which require or result in our inability to effectively market and/or interact with customers (whether potential or actual), the Company could again experience negative impacts.

/ i

Basis of Presentation and Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Estimates used in the accompanying financial statements include the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, inventory obsolescence, useful lives of depreciable assets, share-based compensation, and deferred income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentrations and Credit Risks

The Company places its cash with three major financial institutions. During the period, the Company had cash balances that were in excess of federally insured limits.

The Company purchases certain key components necessary for the production of its products from a limited number of suppliers. The components provided by the suppliers could be replaced or substituted by other products. It is possible that if this action became necessary, an interruption of production and/or material cost expenditures could take place.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when it has satisfied the performance obligation required under a contract with the customer. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. Our contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation. A contract’s transaction price is recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied.

Performance obligations for product sales are satisfied as of a point in time. Revenue is recognized when control of the product transfers to the customer, generally upon product shipment. Performance obligations for site support and engineering services are satisfied over-time if the customer receives the benefits as we perform work and we have a contractual right to payment. Revenue recognized on an over-time basis is based on costs incurred to date relative to milestones and total estimated costs at completion to measure progress.

The Company considers the contractual consideration payable by the customer when determining the transaction price of each contract. Revenue is recorded net of charges for certain sales incentives and discounts, and applicable state and local sales taxes, which represent components of the transaction price. Charges are estimated by us upon shipment of the product based on contractual terms, and actual charges typically do not vary materially from our estimates. Shipping estimates are determined by utilizing shipping costs provided by the various service providers websites based on number of packages, weight and destination. Shipping costs are included in the cost of goods sold as the revenue is captured in total sales.

ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company receives payments from customers based on the terms established in our contracts. When amounts are billed and collected before the services are performed, they are included in deferred revenues. The Company does not generally sell its products with the right of return. Therefore, returns are accounted for when they occur and are accepted. Products sold to foreign customers are shipped after payment is received in U.S. funds, unless an established distributor relationship exists, or the customer is a foreign branch of a U.S. company.

The Company warrants its products as free of manufacturing defects and provides a refund of the purchase price, repair or replacement of the product for a period of one year from the date of installation by the first user/customer. No allowance for estimated warranty repairs or product returns has been recorded due to the Company’s historical experience of repairs and product returns.

Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments are cash, money market funds, and certificates of deposit. The recorded values of cash, money market funds and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are cash and money market funds purchased with original maturities of three months or less.

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts

The Company uses the allowance method to account for estimated uncollectible accounts receivable. Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company’s estimate of doubtful accounts was zero. The Company’s policy for writing off past due accounts receivable is based on the time past due and responses received from the subject customer.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at lower of direct cost or market. Cost is determined on an average cost basis that approximates the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Market is determined based on net realizable value and consideration is given to obsolescence.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on net income (loss), stockholders’ equity, or cash flows as previously reported.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is carried at cost. Major betterments are capitalized and de minimis purchases are expensed. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful life of property and equipment for purposes of computing depreciation is three to seven years. When the Company sells or otherwise disposes of property and equipment a gain or loss is recorded in the statement of operations. The cost of improvements that extend the life of property and equipment is capitalized. The Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment and, upon indication that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable, recognizes an impairment loss by a charge against current operations.

Certificates of Deposit

Certificates of deposit with original maturities ranging from one month to twelve months were i 400,000 and $ i 499,999 at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

/ i

Software Costs

Software purchased and used by the Company is capitalized as property and equipment based on its cost, and amortized over its useful life, usually not exceeding five years.

ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company capitalizes the costs of creating a software product to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed, for which technological feasibility has been established. Amortization of the software product, on a product-by-product basis, begins on the date the product is available for distribution to customers and continues over the estimated revenue-producing life, not to exceed five years.

Leases

Contracts that meet the definition of a lease are classified as operating or financing leases and are recorded on the balance sheet as both a right-of-use asset and lease liability, calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the right-of-use asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right-of-use asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. Variable lease expenses are recorded when incurred.

Income Taxes

The provision (benefit) for income taxes is computed on the pretax income (loss) based on the current tax law. Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates. The Company evaluates positive and negative information when estimating the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. For tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold a deferred tax asset is recognized.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are recognized as operating expenses when incurred. Research and development expenditures for new product development and improvements of existing products by the Company for 2021 and 2020 were $ i 212,397 and $ i 200,024, respectively.

/ i

Advertising Costs

Costs incurred for producing and communicating advertising are recognized as operating expenses when incurred. Advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $ i 7,979 and $ i 6,351, respectively.

/ i

Earnings Per Share

The Company is required to have dual presentation of basic earnings per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents.

Potentially dilutive common stock equivalents consist of i 240,000 and i 180,000 stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the potentially dilutive stock options were not included in the calculation of the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding or diluted EPS as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

/ i

Share-Based Compensation

Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are measured at fair value and expensed in the statement of operations over the vesting period. In addition to the recognition of expense in the financial statements, any excess tax benefits received upon exercise of options will be presented as a financing activity inflow rather than an adjustment of operating activity in the statement of cash flows.

Fair Value Measurements

When required to measure assets or liabilities at fair value, the Company uses a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used. The Company determines the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements in their entirety fall. The categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Level 1 uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, Level 2 uses significant other observable inputs, and Level 3 uses significant unobservable inputs. The amount of the total gains or losses for the period are included in earnings that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company has no assets or liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis.

Realization of the deferred tax asset is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income prior to expiration of the loss carryforwards and the income tax carryforwards. Management determined that it does not believe it is more likely than not that all of the net deferred tax assets will be realized. Therefore, a valuation allowance has been recorded for the full net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2021 and 2020.

ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $ i 67,000 of research and development income tax credits available to reduce federal income taxes in future periods. The credits expire from 2035-2039. In addition, at December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $ i 1,400,000 of net operating loss carryforwards, $750,000 of which will expire between 2035 and 2038. The remaining balance of $650,000 will never expire but whose utilization is limited to 80% of taxable income in any future year.

The differences between the provision (benefit) for federal income taxes and federal income taxes computed using the U.S. statutory federal income tax rate of 21% were as follows:

The Company files federal income tax returns in the United States only. The Company is no longer subject to federal income tax examination by tax authorities for years before 2018. The Company has evaluated all tax positions for open years and has concluded that they have no material unrecognized tax benefits or penalties.

Profit Sharing Salary Deferral 401-K Plan

The Company sponsors a Profit-Sharing Plan and Salary Deferral 401-K Plan and Trust. All employees over the age of twenty-one are eligible. On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted a four percent salary matching provision. The Company contributed $ i 16,660 and $ i 15,659 to the plan for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

/ i

Employee Bonus Program

The Board of Directors establishes Sales and Net Income thresholds at the start of each year that are used in calculating the amount of bonuses that may be awarded. If these thresholds are not achieved, there will be no bonus issued. There was no accrual or expense recorded for 2021 or 2020.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company grants stock options to individual employees and directors with three years continuous tenure. After termination of employment, stock options may be exercised within ninety days, after which they are subject to forfeiture. On September 1, 2021 the Board of Directors granted i 60,000 options to employess. The new options have an exercise price of $ i 0.40, a term of 5 years, and vested immediately. The fair value of the options was determined using the Black-Scholes model using the following variables: stock price of $ i 0.40, volatility of i 107.69%, expected term of i 5 years with a forfeiture rate of i 95%, and a discount factor of i 0.77%.

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, these positions are currently held by the same individual, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such terms are defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer have concluded that there was a material weakness affecting our internal control over financial reporting and, as a result of this weakness, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2021.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected.

As of December 31, 2021, management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework,” (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission. Management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 and concluded that it is ineffective in assuring that the financial reports of the Company are free from material errors or misstatements. The material weakness is as follows:

We did not maintain effective controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties as the same officer and employee was responsible for the initiating and recording of transactions, thereby creating segregation of duties weaknesses. Due to the (1) significance of segregation of duties to the preparation of reliable financial statements, (2) the significance of potential misstatement that could have resulted due to the deficient controls and (3) the absence of sufficient other mitigating controls, we determined that this control deficiency resulted in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement or lack of disclosure within the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

Management’s Remediation Initiatives

Management has evaluated and continues to evaluate, avenues for mitigating our internal controls weaknesses, but mitigating controls have been deemed to be impractical and cost prohibitive due to the size of our organization at the current time. Management does not foresee implementing a cost effective method of mitigating our internal control weaknesses in the near term. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
