Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.
Earnings quality
latest fiscal year ending 2026-04-30 · accruals and cash conversion as filedPer fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions. The per-year series is part of Pro risk analysis.

(14) Commitments and Contingencies Litigation with Paragon Technologies, Inc. On October 10, 2023, Paragon Technologies, Inc. filed a complaint in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against the Company, and the members of its Board of Directors, claiming certain breaches of their fiduciary duties. The complaint sought only injunctive relief against the Company, and not monetary damages, and therefore the financial exposure derived therein was limited to applicable legal fees and costs at that stage, which was material to FY 24. The hearing on the initial complaint was held and on November 30, 2023, the Court ruled in favor of the Company and denied Paragons motion for injunctive relief. On February 28, 2024, the Company successfully finalized its 2023 annual meeting of stockholders in spite of Paragons repeated attempts to contest the meeting. In an August 12, 2024 Press Release and its Form 10-Q report for the second quarter of 2024, Paragon announced that it was no longer pursuing litigation against the Company. Pursuant to a Court order dated January 9, 2025, Paragon was required to file a status report within 30 days. Otherwise, the case will be dismissed under Rule 41(e). Because Paragon did not file a status report by February 10, 2025, the Company anticipates that the Court will dismiss the case, with prejudice, due to Paragons failure to prosecute. Section 220 Demand In February 2025, the Company received a shareholder demand under Section 220 of the Gener …

Share-based compensation · 6,173 characters as filed
(11) Share-Based Compensation In 2015, upon approval by the Companys shareholders, the Companys 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the 2015 Plan) became effective. A total of 1,332,036 shares were authorized for issuance under the 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan, including shares available for awards under the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan remaining at the time that plan terminated, or that were subject to awards under the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan that thereafter terminated by reason of expiration, forfeiture, cancellation or otherwise. If any award under the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan or 2015 Plan expires, is cancelled, terminates unexercised or is forfeited, those shares become again available for grant under the 2015 Plan. Most recently in January 2025, the shareholders approved an amendment and restatement of the 2015 Plan to, among other things, provide an aggregate increase to the 2015 Plan of 20,000,000 shares resulting in total shares authorized for issuance of 27,282,036 as of October 31, 2025, based on 7,282,036 available before the amendment. The 2015 Plan will now terminate in January 2035, but is subject to earlier termination as provided in the 2015 Plan. On January 18, 2018, the Companys Board of Directors adopted the Companys Employment Inducement Incentive Award Plan (the 2018 Inducement Plan) pursuant to which the Company reserved 25,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the Inducement Plan in accordance with Rule 711(a) of the NYSE American Company Guide.

Fair value · 2,900 characters as filed
(12) Fair Value Measurements ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements states that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are reported using a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy maximizes the use of observable input and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. The following is a description of the three hierarchy levels. Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability. Disclosure of Fair Values The Companys financial instruments that are not re-measured at fair value include cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, other assets, contract assets and liabilities, deposits, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. The carrying value is equal to their fair value due to the short-term nature of these accounts. The following tables sets forth the Companys financial instruments that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy (amounts …

(15) Income Taxes Uncertain Tax Positions The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740. The guidance requires the Company to recognize in its consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company has no current or deferred tax due to current and projected losses for the year. At October 31, 2025 the Company had no uncertain tax positions. The Company does not expect any material increases or decreases in its income tax expense or benefit in the next twelve months, related to examinations or uncertain tax positions. Net operating losses and credit carryforwards since inception remain open to examination by taxing authorities and will continue to remain open for a period of time after utilization. Tax Preservation Plan In June 2023, in order to protect the Companys valuable tax assets related to its net operating losses from being limited or lost under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company adopted a Tax Benefits Preservation Plan (the Plan). Pursuant to the Plan, the Board declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (each, a Right) for each outstanding share of common stock of the Company. The dividend was distributed to stockholders of record as of the close of business on July 11, 2023. The Plan substantially diminishes the risk that the Companys ability to utilize its net operating los …

Leases · 4,238 characters as filed
(9) Leases Lessor Information As of October 31, 2025 and April 30, 2025, the Company had four WAM-Vs leased to customers which have been classified as operating leases per accounting guidance contained within ASC Topic 842, Leases, respectively. The remaining term on these operating leases is less than 2 years. Lessee Information Right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. When the implicit rate of the lease is not provided or cannot be determined, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the effective date to determine the present value of future payments. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those options. The renewal options have not been included in the lease term as they are not reasonably certain of exercise. The Companys operating leases consist of leases for office facilities and warehouse space. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight- line basis over the lease term and consists of interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right of use asset. The Company has a lease for its facility located in Monroe Township, New Jersey that is used as warehouse/production space and the Companys principal offices and corporate headquarters. In August 2025, the Company extended the l …

We are currently evaluating the potential impact of these ASUs and adopting them when applicable based on their effective dates. In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring companies to (1) disclose consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the effective rate reconciliation and (2) provide information on income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, although early adoption is permitted. The guidance should be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU 2023-09 on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures for the annual period ending April 30, 2026. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-3, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.
