Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Form 10-Q. Operating results for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2022 or any future interim period. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on August 30, 2021 (the “2021 Annual Report”).

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Akoustis, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. For RFMi, a consolidated entity in which we have 51% of ownership, the Company records net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interest on the condensed consolidated statements of operations equal to the percentage of the ownership interest retained in such entity by the respective noncontrolling parties.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note. 3-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the 2021 Annual Report. Since the date of the 2021 Annual Report, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies. The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto. The policies, estimates and assumptions include valuing equity securities, deferred taxes and related valuation allowances, contingent consideration, goodwill, intangible assets, initial fair value of the non-controlling interest, revenue recognition, and the fair values of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from the estimates.

Business Combinations - Business combinations are accounted for under the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The acquisition method requires identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the business acquired be recognized and measured at fair value on the acquisition date, which is the date that the acquirer obtains control of the acquired business. The amount by which the fair value of consideration transferred as the purchase price exceeds the net fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. Transaction costs are expensed in a business combination.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated losses to be incurred in the collection of accounts receivable.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, when adopted, will have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
