Interim Consolidated Financial Information
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Digital Turbine, Inc. should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in Digital Turbine, Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, as amended. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to fairly state the financial position of Digital Turbine, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries at December 31, 2017, the results of its operations and corresponding comprehensive loss, and its cash flows for the nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018.
The significant accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements were described in Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. There have been no significant changes in or updates to the accounting policies since March 31, 2017. Only new accounting pronouncements, pertinent to the Company, issued subsequent to the issuance of our Annual Report are described below.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2017-12: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. This update makes more financial and non-financial hedging strategies eligible for hedge accounting. It also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements and changes how companies assess effectiveness. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted upon its issuance. The amendments in this update should be applied on a modified retrospective basis except for the presentation and disclosure guidance which is required prospectively. The Company will adopt ASU 2017-12 during the quarter ended June 30, 2019, and is currently assessing the impact of the future adoption of this standard on its consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, which addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features under current guidance criterion. With this new update, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. This guidance is to be applied retrospectively for instruments outstanding as of the adoption date. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early application is permitted. The Company will adopt ASU 2017-11 during the quarter ended June 30, 2019, and does not expect the impact of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which modifies the scope of share-based payment award modification accounting in an effort to provide clarity and reduce diversity in practice under old guidance. Under this new standard, an entity should apply modification accounting (Topic 718) unless specific criterion related to fair value, vesting conditions, and equity/liability classification are all met. This guidance is to be applied prospectively for awards modified on or after the adoption date. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted. The Company will adopt ASU 2017-09 during the quarter ended June 30, 2018, and does not expect the impact of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. Additionally, ASU 2014-09 requires enhanced disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. In July 2015, the FASB decided to delay the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. The deferral results in the new revenue standard being effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. ASU 2014-09, as amended, is effective using either the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition approach for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those years. In 2016 and 2017, the FASB has issued several accounting standards updates to clarify certain topics within ASU 2014-09. The Company will adopt ASU 2014-09, and its related clarifying ASUs, during the quarter ended June 30, 2018.  Further, the Company is currently determining the impact of the standard on its consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Other authoritative guidance issued by the FASB (including technical corrections to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not, or are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. A significant portion of the Company’s cash is held at one major financial institution that the Company's management has assessed to be of high credit quality. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
The Company mitigates its credit risk with respect to accounts receivable by performing credit evaluations and monitoring advertisers' and carriers' accounts receivable balances. The Company counts all advertisers and carriers within a single corporate structure as one customer, even in cases where multiple brands, branches, or divisions of an organization enter into separate contracts with the Company. As of December 31, 2017, one major Advertising customers and one Content customer represented approximately 20.8% and 15.7%, respectively, of the Company’s net accounts receivable balance. As of March 31, 2017, two major customers represented 11.2% and 10.7% of the Company's net accounts receivable balance, both within the Advertising business.
With respect to revenue concentration, the Company defines a customer as an advertiser or a carrier that is a distinct source of revenue and is legally bound to pay for the services that the Company delivers on the advertiser’s or carrier's behalf. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, Singapore Telecommunications Limited, a Content customer represented 20.5% and 19.4% of net revenues, respectively; Oath Inc., an Advertising customer represented 14.0% and 13.4% of net revenues, respectively; Telstra Corporation Limited, a Content customer represented 13.6% and 12.7% of net revenues, respectively; and Machine Zone, Inc., an Advertising customer represented 10.6% and 10.5% of net revenues, respectively. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2016, Telstra Corporation Limited, a Content customer represented 16.2% and 23.7% of net revenues, respectively, Oath Inc., an Advertising customer, represented 16.2% and 13.4% of net revenues, respectively, and Jam City Inc., an Advertising customer represented 13.9% and 11.4% of net revenues, respectively
The Company partners with mobile carriers and OEMS to deliver applications on our Ignite platform through the carrier network. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, Verizon Wireless, a carrier partner, generated 29.6% and 30.9% of our net revenues, respectively; while AT&T Inc., a carrier partner, primarily through its Cricket subsidiary, generated 24.0% and 19.0% of our net revenue, respectively. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2016, Verizon Wireless, generated 32.9% and 26.6% of our net revenues, respectively.
The Company may not continue to receive significant revenues from any of these or from other large customers. A reduction or delay in operating activity from any of the Company’s significant customers, or a delay or default in payment by any significant customer could materially harm the Company’s business and prospects. Because of the Company’s significant customer concentration, its net sales and operating income could fluctuate significantly due to changes in political or economic conditions, or the loss, reduction of business, or less favorable terms for any of the Company's significant customers.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates that impact the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are recurring in nature and relate to transactions occurring in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management these are appropriate estimates for arrangements to be settled at a later date based on the fact and circumstances available at the time of filing. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
