NOTE 4. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
The Company recognizes revenue by taking into consideration the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. Due to the nature of the Company’s service and product offerings and contracts associated with these, the Company’s deliverables do not fluctuate, and its revenue recognition is consistent. The Company evaluates whether amounts billed to customers should be reported as revenues on a gross or net basis. Generally, revenue is recorded on a gross basis when the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the services, when it assumes the risk of loss, when it has discretion in setting the prices for the services to the customers, and when the Company has the ability to direct the use of the services provided by the third party. We generally are responsible for the fulfilment of a customer order despite the fact we do not directly provide the delivery services; we can redirect delivery to other shipping companies in our network. We control the price for which the customer pays and generally collect the gross shipping fees and remit the contractual rate to this shipping company. Our risk of loss relates to credit card chargebacks, certain self-insured shipping losses and other miscellaneous charges that we cannot pass through to the shipping company.
Nature of Goods and Services
For label generation service revenues, the Company recognizes revenue when a customer has successfully prepared a shipping label, and their shipment is delivered. Customers with pickups and shipments in transit after the end of the reporting period are recorded as contract liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The service is offered to consumers via an online registration and allows users to create a shipping label using a credit card on their account (all customers must have a valid credit card on file to process shipments on the ShipTime platform).
For brewery management software revenues, the Company recognizes subscription revenue on a monthly basis. Brewery management software subscribers are billed monthly at the first of the month. All payments are made via credit card for the following month.
eCommerce and merchant processing revenue consists of fees a seller pays us to process their payment transactions and is recognized upon authorization of a transaction. Revenue is recognized net of estimated refunds, which are reversals of transactions initiated by sellers. We act as the merchant of record for our sellers, which puts us in their shoes with respect to card networks and puts the risk for refunds and chargebacks on us. The gross transaction fees collected from sellers is recognized as revenue as we are the primary obligor to the seller and are responsible for processing the payment, have latitude in establishing pricing with respect to the sellers and other terms of service, have sole discretion in selecting the third party to perform the settlement, and assume the credit risk for the transaction processed.
Revenue Disaggregation
The Company operates in reportable segments (see Note 3).
Performance Obligations
At contract inception, an assessment of the goods and services promised in the contracts with customers is carried out and a performance obligation is identified for each distinct promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services). The Company fulfills nearly all of its performance obligations within a one-to-two-week period and contracts with customers have an original expected duration of less than one month. The Company generally has an unconditional right to consideration when the services are initiated or soon thereafter. The amount due from the customer is either collected up front or recorded as accounts receivable. The amounts related to services that are not yet completed at the reporting date are presented as contract liabilities. The Company measures the performance of its obligations as services are completed over the life of a shipment, including services at origin, freight and destination. This method of measurement of progress depicts the pattern of the Company's actual performance under the contracts with the customer. For arrangements under which the Company provides a subscription for brewery management software, the Company satisfies its performance obligations over the life of the subscription, typically twelve months or less.
For arrangements under which the Company provides a subscription for brewery management software, the Company satisfies its performance obligations over the life of the subscription, typically twelve months or less.
Merchant processing customers receive a merchant identification number which allows them to process credit card transactions. Once the transaction is approved, the funds are distributed in an overnight feed and the Company has met its performance obligation.
The Company has no shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers.
Revenues are recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to government authorities.
Significant Payment Terms
Pursuant to the Company’s contracts with its customers, amounts are collected up front primarily through credit/debit card transactions. Accordingly, the Company determined that its contracts with customers do not include extended payment terms or a significant financing component.
Measurement of Credit Losses
The Company has accounts receivable and note receivable and monitors the granting of credit and collecting debt on an ongoing basis. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical loss patterns, the number of days that billings are past due, and an evaluation of potential risk of loss associated with delinquent accounts. The Company has two notes receivable and is a senior secure lender with an absolute obligation for one of the notes. The primary note was evaluated for credit losses as of December 31, 2025 by considering the contractual obligation, the valuation of the assets and the senior position of the repayment.
Variable Consideration
In some cases, the nature of the Company’s contracts may give rise to variable consideration, including rebates and cancellations or other similar items that generally decrease the transaction price.
Variable consideration is estimated at the most likely amount that is expected to be earned. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of the anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available.
Revenues are recorded net of variable considerations, such as rebates, refunds and cancellations.
Warranties
The Company’s products and services are provided on an “as is” basis and no warranties are included in the contracts with customers. Also, the Company does not offer separately priced extended warranty or product maintenance contracts.
Contract Assets
Typically, the Company has already collected revenue from the customer at the time it has satisfied its performance obligation. Accordingly, the Company has a balance of accounts receivable, totaling $302,894, $193,852, and $205,647 at December 31, 2025 and 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company has recorded a balance of $234,972 in contract assets as of December 31, 2025.
Contract Liabilities (Deferred Revenue)
Contract liabilities are recorded when cash payments are received in advance of the Company’s performance (including rebates). Contract liabilities were $329,725 and $372,795 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized revenues of $372,792 and $15,832, respectively, related to contract liabilities outstanding at the beginning of each year. The Company expects to recognize $329,725 in revenue related to contract liabilities in the first quarter of 2026. |
