NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared based upon U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Therefore, they do not include all information and footnote disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of Coda Octopus Group, Inc.’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Coda Octopus Group, Inc. (the “Company”, “Coda Octopus”, “we” or “us”) filed audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2019 and 2018 which included all information and notes necessary for such complete presentation as part of its annual report on Form 10-K filed on January 28, 2020, (“the “Form 10-K”). The results of operations for the interim period ended April 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2019, which are contained in the Form 10-K. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of April 30, 2020 and the results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the interim periods ended April 30, 2020 and 2019. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company uses the US dollar as the reporting currency for financial reporting. The financial position and results of operations of the Company’s UK-based operations are measured using the British Pound Sterling, Australian based operations are measured using Australian Dollars and Danish based operations are measured using Danish Kroner as the functional currencies. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are recorded as a change in other comprehensive income. Transaction gains and losses generated from the remeasurement of assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of our foreign operations are also included in other comprehensive income.

NOTE 2 – REVENUE RECOGNITION

Beginning on November 1, 2018, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). Previously, we had recognized revenue in accordance with FASB Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. After carefully comparing the old and the new revenue standards, we believe that our previous revenue recognition policy is substantially consistent with our new revenue recognition policy and that revenues are consistently stated between periods and was not a cumulative effect adjustment.

Topic 606 has established a five-step process to determine the amount of revenue to record from contracts with customers. The five steps are:

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

April 30, 2020 and 2019

NOTE 2 – REVENUE RECOGNITION (Continued)

Our revenues are earned under formal contracts with our customers and are derived from both sales and rental of underwater technologies and equipment for real time 3D imaging, mapping, defense and survey applications and from the engineering services that we provide broadly to prime defense contractors. Our contracts do not include the possibility for additional contingent consideration so that our determination of the contract price does not involve having to consider potential additional variable consideration. Our sales do not include a right of return by the customer.

With regard to our Marine Technology Business (“Products Segment”), all of our products are sold on a stand-alone basis and those market prices are evidence of the value of the products. To the extent that we also provide services (e.g., installation, training, post-sales technical support etc.), those services are either included as part of the product or are subject to written contracts based on the stand-alone value of those services. Revenue from the sale of services is recognized when those services have been provided to the customer and evidence of the provision of those services exist.

Revenue derived from either our subscription package offering or rental of our equipment is recognized when performance obligations are met, in particular, on a daily basis during the subscription or rental period.

For arrangements with multiple performance obligations, we recognize product revenue by allocating the transaction revenue to each performance obligation based on the relative fair value of each deliverable and recognize revenue when performance obligations are met including when equipment is delivered, and for rental of equipment, when installation and other services are performed.

Our contracts sometimes require customer payments in advance of revenue recognition and are recognized as revenue when the Company has fulfilled its obligations under the respective contracts. Until such time, we recognize this prepayment as deferred revenue.

For software license sales for which any services rendered are not considered essential to the functionality of the software, we recognize revenue upon delivery of the software.

With respect to revenues related to our Services Segment, there are contracts in place that specify the fixed hourly rate and other reimbursable costs to be billed based on material and direct labor hours incurred and, revenue is recognized on these contracts based on material and direct labor hours incurred. Revenues from fixed-price contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of costs incurred (materials and direct labor hours) to date to estimated total services (materials and direct labor hours) for each contract. This method is used as we consider expenditures for direct materials and labor hours to be the best available measure of progress on these contracts.

Quarterly, we examine all of our fixed-price contracts to determine if there are any losses to be recognized during the period. Any such loss is recorded in the quarter in which the loss first becomes apparent based upon costs incurred to date and the estimated costs to complete as determined by experience from similar contracts. Variations from estimated contract performance could result in adjustments to operating results.

NOTE 2 – REVENUE RECOGNITION (Continued)

Recoverability of Deferred Costs

In accordance with Topic 606, we defer costs on projects for service revenue. Deferred costs consist primarily of direct and incremental costs to customize and install systems, as defined in individual customer contracts, including costs to acquire hardware and software from third parties and payroll costs for our employees and other third parties. The pricing of these service contracts is intended to provide for the recovery of these types of deferred costs over the life of the contract.

We recognize such costs in accordance with our revenue recognition policy by contract. For revenue recognized under the percentage of completion method, costs are recognized as products are delivered or services are provided in accordance with the percentage of completion calculation. For revenue recognized over time, costs are recognized ratably over the term of the contract, commencing on the date of revenue recognition. At each quarterly balance sheet date, we review deferred costs, to ensure they are ultimately recoverable.

Any anticipated losses on uncompleted contracts are recognized when evidence indicates the estimated total cost of a contract exceeds its estimated total revenue.

Deferred Commissions

Our incremental direct costs of obtaining a contract, which consists of sales commissions are deferred and amortized over the period of the contract performance. We classify deferred commissions as current or noncurrent based on the timing of when we expect to recognize the expense. The current and noncurrent portions of deferred commissions are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets, and other assets, net, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheets. At April 30, 2020 and October 31, 2019, we had deferred commissions of $1,913 and $0, respectively. Amortization expense related to deferred commissions was $80,973 and $0 in the first quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Other Revenue Disclosures

See Note 14 – Segment Analysis for a breakdown of revenues from external customers and cost of those revenues between our Product Segment and Services Segment including information on the split of revenues by geography.

NOTE 3 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s short term financial instruments consist of cash, receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and a revolving line of credit. The Company adjusts the carrying value of financial assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies such as cash, receivables, accounts payable and the lines of credit using the appropriate exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The Company believes that the carrying values of these short-term financial instruments approximate their estimated fair values.

April 30, 2020 and 2019

NOTE 4 – FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

The financial position and results of operations of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are measured using the local currency in the jurisdiction in which the subsidiary operates as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of operations denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, while revenues and expenses are translated at the weighted average exchange rates during the reporting period. The resulting translation gains and/or losses on assets and liabilities are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and are excluded from net income (loss) until realized through a sale or liquidation of the investment.

NOTE 5 - INVENTORY

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (weighted average method) or net realizable value. Inventory consisted of the following components:

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 8 – ESTIMATES

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues including unbilled and deferred revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings, and valuation of accounts receivable, valuation of fixed assets, valuation of inventory, valuation of deferred tax assets and the valuation of goodwill.

NOTE 9 – CONTRACTS IN PROGRESS

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts represent accumulated project expenses and fees which have not been invoiced to customers as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets. These amounts are stated on the consolidated balance sheets as unbilled receivables of $2,021,496 and $2,279,362 as of April 30, 2020 and October 31, 2019, respectively.

Our deferred revenue of $2,267,037 and $973,735 as of April 30, 2020 and October 31, 2019, respectively, consists of billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings and revenues received as part of our subscription package offering, warranty or Through Life Support (“TLS”) obligations upon completing a sale.

Revenue received as part of sales of products via our Products Segment includes a provision for subscription package offering, warranty or TLS. Subscription package offering is essentially a rental agreement for a fixed period of twelve months under which we supply full equipment suite including hardware, software and technical support during the subscription period. TLS offers the customer extended post-sales technical support along with software and hardware assurances. These post-sales obligations (subscription package offering, warranty and TLS) are treated as deferred revenue and are amortized over the period when the contractual obligations subsist, which for subscription package offering and warranty is 12 months and TLS varies between 36 and 60 months depending on the package purchased by the customer. These amounts are stated on the consolidated balance sheets as a component of deferred revenue of $503,210 and $497,819 as of April 30, 2020 and October 31, 2019, respectively.

NOTE 12 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

On February 24, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, requiring lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with the exception of short-term leases. For lessees, leases will continue to be classified as either operating or finance leases in the balance sheet. Lessor accounting is similar to the current model but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model. Lessors will continue to classify leases as operating, direct financing or sales-type leases. The effective date of the new standard for public companies is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02 effective November 1, 2019. We own substantially all of our facilities. Accordingly, the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 did not have a material impact on our interim consolidated financial statements.

With the exception of the updated standards discussed above, there have been no new accounting pronouncements not yet effective that have significance, or potential significance, to our consolidated financial statements.
