1. | Description of Business |
FAPS Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) markets and services electronic credit card authorization and payment systems to merchants, including sale and leasing of related equipment. The Company provides a full range of payment processing services to small and medium-sized retail and service businesses throughout the United States including nonprofit organizations worldwide. These services include credit card, debit card and electronic benefit transaction processing; check guarantee and conversion; point-of-sale (“POS”) equipment leasing; internet transaction processing and reporting; automated teller machines (“ATM”) ownership and processing; and gift card processing and reporting.
Global Pandemic
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic. As a result of the pandemic, during 2020 and continuing into 2021, the ongoing outbreak has and may continue to adversely impact portions of the Company’s merchant base due to various restrictions imposed by state and local governments limiting the extent to which merchants can operate their businesses. Such limitations on the Company’s merchant base could have an adverse impact on processing volumes for which a significant portion of the Company’s revenue is derived. While the widespread distribution of vaccines and lifting of restrictions by certain state and local governments has resulted in signs of economic recovery, the extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, potential virus resurgences in certain areas, regulatory decisions, and the impact on the financial markets, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. These factors could ultimately affect the recoverability of assets, long-lived assets and goodwill, however, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the effects of COVID-19 based on management's estimates and assumptions utilizing the most currently available information.
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Accounting Principles
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and on the same basis as the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. Certain information and disclosures included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, estimates, and management judgments necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s interim financial information for the periods presented. The results reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for any future interim or annual period. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FAPS Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of management estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates are based on historical experience and information that is available to management about current events and actions the Company may take in the future. Significant items subject to estimates and assumptions include the carrying value and useful lives of long- lived assets, deferred income taxes, and stock options. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash, but may also include short-term, highly liquid cash investments having original maturity dates of three months or less. All excess cash not needed for normal operations is used to reduce debt or held to fund future investments. The Company maintains cash at financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits.
The current portion of restricted cash consists of certain merchant funds that are settled within three business days and restricted cash consists of merchant reserves.
March 31, 2021 | December 31, 2020 | |||||||
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 13,287,322 | $ | 8,478,873 | ||||
Current portion of restricted cash | 316,889 | 232,373 | ||||||
Restricted cash | 3,730,285 | 3,227,120 | ||||||
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash | $ | 17,334,496 | $ | 11,938,366 |
Funds Held for Merchants
Funds held for merchants represents cash received by the Company from credit card networks and internet transaction processing which the Company collects on behalf of certain merchants. Upon receiving the cash, the Company recognizes an offsetting liability reflected as funds owed to merchants until the funds are settled with the merchants. The cash is settled to merchants within three to five business days.
Expected Merchant Funds
The expected merchant funds represent amounts due to the Company from credit card networks which the Company collects on behalf of certain merchants. Upon recording the expected funds, the Company recognizes an offsetting liability reflected as funds owed to merchants until the funds are settled with the merchants.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded to reflect the future tax consequences attributable to the effects of differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities for financial reporting and their respective amounts used for income tax purposes. These tax effects are measured based on provisions of enacted tax laws. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
If interest or penalties are paid related to income taxes, they are recorded as tax expense. Interest and penalties paid during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were immaterial. The years ended 2017, 2018 and 2019 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued updated guidance regarding lease accounting. The update includes a lessee accounting model with two types of leases: finance leases and operating leases. The guidance requires that most leases be recognized on the balance sheet as a right of use asset with an associated lease liability at the lease commencement date. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. Lessor accounting will remain substantially the same as the current model. The updates to lessor accounting focus on conforming to certain changes made to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. The guidance requires new disclosures with the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements, providing key information about the leasing arrangements recorded in the financial statements. The new guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on a customer’s accounting for implementation, set-up and other upfront costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement hosted by a service contract with a vendor. Under the new guidance, a customer will apply the same criteria for capitalizing implementation costs of a cloud computing arrangement as it would for an on-premises software license. The new guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies that the Company adopts as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective are either not applicable to the Company at this time or will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
