NOTES
TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER
31, 2020
Note
1 Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and do not include all
of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. It is
suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included
in the Company’s April 30, 2020 annual report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Operating results for any quarter
are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other quarter or for the full year.
Accounting
Estimates —The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions including the
carrying value of assets. The estimates and assumptions result in approximate rather than exact amounts.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements — In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “ Financial Instruments –
Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ”, which requires entities to
use a forward looking approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including
trade receivables. The FASB has subsequently issued updates to the standard to provide additional clarification on specific topics.
Topic 326 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. We
have applied this guidance, as of May 1, 2020, using a modified-retrospective approach. The application of this guidance did not
require a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings and did not have a material effect on our financial statements.
In
August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement - Disclosure Framework (Topic 820). The updated guidance improves
the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The updated guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods
within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for any removed or modified disclosures.
We applied this guidance, as of May 1, 2020. The application of this guidance did not have a material effect on our disclosures.
In
January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and
Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323,
and Topic 815.” The ASU is based on a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force and is expected to increase comparability
in accounting for these transactions. ASU 2016-01 made targeted improvements to accounting for financial instruments, including
providing an entity the ability to measure certain equity securities without a readily determinable fair value at cost, less any
impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar
investment of the same issuer. Among other topics, the amendments clarify that an entity should consider observable transactions
that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting. For public business entities, the amendments in
the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early
adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-01 to have a material impact on its financial statements.
There
are no other new accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.
Note
2 Investments
The
Company has investments in publicly traded equity securities, state and municipal debt securities, real estate investment trusts,
and money markets. The investments in debt securities, which include municipal bonds and bond funds, mature between April 2021
and January 2044. The Company uses the average cost method to determine the cost of equity securities sold with any unrealized
gains or losses reported in the respective period’s earnings. Unrealized gains and losses on debt securities are excluded
from earnings and reported separately as a component of stockholder’s equity. Dividend and interest income are reported
as earned.

Marketable
securities that are classified as equity securities are carried at fair value on the balance sheets with changes in fair value
recorded as an unrealized gain or (loss) in the statements of income in the period of the change. Upon the disposition of a marketable
security, the Company records a realized gain or (loss) on the Company’s statements of income.
The
Company evaluates all marketable securities for other-than-temporary declines in fair value, which are defined as when the cost
basis exceeds the fair value for approximately one year. The Company also evaluates the nature of the investment, cause of impairment
and number of investments that are in an unrealized position. When an “other-than-temporary” decline is identified,
the Company will decrease the cost of the marketable security to the new fair value and recognize a real loss. The investments
are periodically evaluated to determine if impairment changes are required. As a result of this standard, management recorded
an impairment loss of $52,000 for the quarter, and recorded a loss of $79,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2020. As for
the corresponding periods last year, management recorded an impairment loss of $7,000 for the quarter ended October 31, 2019 and
an impairment loss of $41,000 was recorded for the six-months ended October 31, 2019.
The
Company’s investments are actively traded in the stock and bond markets. Therefore, either a realized gain or loss is recorded
when a sale happens. For the quarter ended October 31, 2020 the Company had sales of equity securities which yielded gross realized
gains of $184,000 and gross realized losses of $110,000. For the same period, sales of debt securities did not yield any gross
realized gains, but gross realized losses of $2,000 were recorded. As for the six-months ended October 31, 2020 the Company had
sales of equity securities which yielded gross realized gains of $286,000 and gross realized losses of $236,000. For the same
six-month period, sales of debt securities did not yield any gross realized gains, but gross realized losses of $6,000 were recorded.
During the quarter ending October 31, 2019, the Company recorded gross realized gains and losses on equity securities of $67,000
and $57,000, respectively, while sales of debt securities did not yield any gross realized gains or losses. During the six-months
ending October 31, 2019, the Company recorded gross realized gains and losses on equity securities of $220,000 and $161,000, respectively,
as well as gross realized gains and losses on debt securities of $3,000 and $3,000, respectively. The gross realized loss numbers
include the impaired figures listed in the previous paragraph.
The
following table shows the investments with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be “other-than-temporarily impaired”,
aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position,
at October 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020, respectively.

Municipal
Bonds
The
unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in municipal bonds were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual
terms of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment.
Because the Company has the ability to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company
does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at October 31, 2020.
Marketable
Equity Securities and REITs
The
Company’s investments in marketable equity securities and REITs consist of a wide variety of companies. Investments in these
companies include growth, growth income, and foreign investment objectives. The individual holdings have been evaluated, and due
to management’s plan to hold on to these investments for an extended period, the Company does not consider these investments
to be other-than-temporarily impaired at October 31, 2020.

6 Retirement Benefit Plan
On
January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the George Risk Industries, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan
is a defined contribution savings plan designed to provide retirement income to eligible employees of the Company. The Plan is
intended to be qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. It is funded by voluntary pre-tax
and Roth (taxable) contributions from eligible employees who may contribute a percentage of their eligible compensation, limited
and subject to statutory limits. Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan when they have attained the age of 21 and completed
one thousand hours of service in any plan year with the Company. Upon leaving the Company, each participant is 100% vested with
respect to the participants’ contributions while the Company’s matching contributions are vested over a six-year period
in accordance with the Plan document. Contributions are invested, as directed by the participant, in investment funds available
under the Plan. Matching contributions by the Company of approximately $16,000 and $7,000 were paid during each quarter ending
October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Likewise, the Company paid matching contributions of approximately $29,000 and $9,000
during each six-month period ending October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Note
7 Fair Value Measurements
The
carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair
value due to their short term nature. The fair value of our investments is determined utilizing market based information. Fair
value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are
required to be recorded at fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and the
market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent
risk, transfer restrictions, and credit risk.
US
GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy
gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement)
and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The levels of the fair value hierarchy under US GAAP are
described below:
Level
1
Valuation
is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
Level
2
Valuation
is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments
in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable
in the market.
Level
3
Valuation
is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable
assumptions reflect our own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.
Investments
and Marketable Securities
As
of October 31, 2020, our investments consisted of money markets, publicly traded equity securities, real estate investment trusts
(REITs) as well as certain state and municipal debt securities. The marketable securities are valued using third-party broker
statements. The value of the majority of securities is derived from quoted market information. The inputs to the valuation are
generally classified as Level 1 given the active market for these securities, however, if an active market does not exist, which
is the case for municipal bonds and REITs, the inputs are recorded as Level 2.
Fair
Value Hierarchy
The
following table sets forth our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and a non-recurring basis by
level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by US GAAP, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on
the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

8 Notes Payable
On
April 15, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds of approximately $950,000 (the “PPP Loan”) from FirsTier Bank,
pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under Division A, Title I of the CARES Act, which was enacted
March 27, 2020. The PPP Loan, which was in the form of a Note dated April 15, 2020 issued to the Company, matures on April 15,
2022 and bears interest at a rate of 1% per annum, payable monthly commencing on November 15, 2020. If the Company submits a loan
forgiveness application within ten months of the completion of the Covered Period, it will not be required to make any payments
until the forgiveness amount is remitted to the lender by Small Business Administration (“SBA”). Interest accrues
during the time between the disbursement of the loan and the SBA remittance of the forgiveness amount. The Company is responsible
for paying the accrued interest only on the amount of the loan that is not forgiven. The lender is responsible for notifying the
Company of remittance of the forgiveness amount by the SBA and, if applicable, the date on which the Company’s first payment
of the remaining balance is due. The Note may be prepaid by the Company at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties.
Funds from the PPP Loan may only be used for payroll costs, costs used to continue group health care benefits, mortgage payments,
rent, utilities, and interest on certain other debt obligations. The Company used the entire PPP Loan amount for qualifying expenses.
Under the terms of the PPP, certain amounts of the PPP Loan may be forgiven if they are used for qualifying expenses as described
in the CARES Act. On December 3, 2020, the Company received notice from the lender that the entire amount of the PPP loan was forgiven.
Note
9 Subsequent Events
As
stated above, the Company received notification on December 3, 2020 from its lender of the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”)
loan that the full amount of the loan was forgiven.

The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached condensed financial statements, and with the Company’s
audited financial statements and discussion for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2020.
Executive
Summary
The
Company’s performance continues to improve through the first half of the current fiscal year with the second quarter showing
growth over the first quarter of the current fiscal year. This is mainly due the closure of a competitor at the end of calendar
year 2019 and having the ability to continue to work through the COVID-19 pandemic. The state of Nebraska, where we are located,
has kept businesses open during the pandemic. Additionally, the Company’s products are traditionally tied to the housing
market and with that market remaining strong, it in turn helps the Company’s sales grow. Opportunities include keeping up
with the business growth and to continue looking at businesses that might be a good fit to purchase. We also have new products
that have hit the marketplace and a couple more that are scheduled to be introduced by the end of the year. Challenges
in the coming months include continuing to get product out to customers in a timely manner and dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic
restrictions. Possible COVID-19 challenges include, but are not limited to, price increases and/or delays in the supply chain,
reduced sales, workforce interruptions, and economic conditions impacting the stock market. Management continues to work at keeping
operations flowing as efficient as possible with the hopes of getting the facilities running leaner and more profitable than ever
before.
Results
of Operations
● Net
sales were $4,647,000 for the quarter ended October 31, 2020, which is a 25.26% increase
from the corresponding quarter last year. Year-to-date net sales were $8,694,000 at October
31, 2020, which is a 19.70% increase from the same period last year. The increases in
sales are primarily a result of a competitor no longer selling competing products, as
discussed above. Other than the loss of a competitor, the Company does not believe COVID-19
has had a significant effect on our net revenue and we do not expect it to have a significant
effect going forward. Also, the ongoing commitment towards outstanding customer service
and customization of products are a few of the many reasons sales continue to grow.
● Cost
of goods sold was 49.37% of net sales for the quarter ended October 31, 2020 and was
50.13% for the same quarter last year. Year-to-date cost of goods sold percentages were
48.83% for the current six months and 49.98% for the corresponding six months last year.
The current cost of goods sold percentages are right at Management’s goal of keeping
labor and other manufacturing expenses at less than 50% for both the quarter and year-to-date
results. Management continues to work with and train employees to work more efficiently
and they also work at getting the best price for raw materials.
● Operating
expenses were up $85,000 for the quarter and were up $121,000 for the six-months ended
October 31, 2020 as compared to the corresponding periods last year. But when comparing
percentages in relation to net sales, the operating expenses for the quarter ended October
31, 2020 was 21.28% of net sales while it was 24.37% of net sales for the same quarter
the prior year. For year-to-date numbers, operating expense were 21.84% and 24.48% of
net sales for the six months ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company
has been able to keep the operating expenses at less than 30% of net sales for many years
now; however, the actual dollar amount increase is because of increased commission amounts
(since sales have increased) and additional labor costs for hiring new employees and
wage increases.
● Income
from operations for the quarter ended October 31, 2020 was at $1,364,000, which is a
44.19% increase from the corresponding quarter last year, which had income from operations
of $946,000. Income from operations for the six months ended October 31, 2020 was at
$2,550,000, which is a 37.47% increase from the corresponding six months last year, which
had income from operations of $1,855,000.
● Other
income and expenses are down when comparing the current quarter to the prior quarter,
with a decrease of $167,000 in the current quarter. Conversely, other income and expenses
are up by $1,699,000 when comparing the current six-month period to the prior six-month
period. Most of the activity in these accounts consists of investment interest, dividends,
real gains or losses on sale of investments, and unrealized gains or losses on equity
securities. The main reason for the decrease in the current quarter as opposed to the
increase for the year-to-date numbers is the unrealized gain and loss on equity securities. The Company is at the mercy of the stock market when it comes to these figures and
the COVID-19 pandemic influenced these numbers.
● Overall,
net income for the quarter ended October 31, 2020 was down $97,000, or 10.14%, from the
same quarter last year. Conversely, net income for the six-month period ended October
31, 2020 was up $1,420,000, or 73.5%, from the same period in the prior year.
● Earnings
per common share for quarter ended October 31, 2020 were $0.17 per share and $0.68 per
share for the year-to-date numbers. EPS for the quarter and six months ended October
31, 2019 were $0.19 per share and $0.39 per share, respectively.
Liquidity
and capital resources
Operating
●
Net
cash decreased $603,000 during the six months ended October 31, 2020 as compared to an increase of $339,000 during the corresponding
period last year.
●
Accounts
receivable decreased $32,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2020 compared with a $486,000 decrease for the same period
last year. The smaller current year decrease is a result of improved sales and collections on accounts receivable have improved
over the last year. An analysis of accounts shows that there were only 0.27% that were over 90 days at October 31, 2020.
●
Inventories
increased $637,000 during the current six-month period as compared to a $583,000 increase last year. The bigger increase in
the current year is primarily due to being prepared for the increase we have seen in sales. In addition, the Company is keeping
more inventory on hand to reduce the likelihood of running into a shortage on some major raw materials, such as we experienced
last year.
●
Prepaid
expenses saw a $73,000 decrease for the current six months, primarily due to less prepayment of raw materials and running
through some of our prepaid agreements without needing to renew them. The prior six months showed a $271,000 increase in prepaid
expenses.
●
Accounts
payable shows an increase for the current six-month period of $28,000 while it shows a decrease for the prior six-month periods
of $36,000. The company strives to pay all invoices within terms, and the variance in the decreases is primarily due to the
timing of receipt of products and payment of invoices.
●
Accrued
expenses decreased $104,000 for the current six-month period as compared to an $11,000 increase for the six-month period ended
October 31, 2019. The difference in the amounts is primarily due to timing issues.
●
Income
tax payable increased $376,000 for the current six-month period, compared to having a decrease in income tax overpayment for
the six-months ended October 31, 2019. The current increase is largely due to having increased sales and income and not having
income tax estimates large enough. Also, since the Company was notified that the PPP loan was forgiven, the forgiveness amount
was included in the income tax expense calculation.

As for our investment activities, the Company purchased $361,000 of property and equipment during the current six-month period. In comparison, $179,000 was spent on purchases of property and equipment during the corresponding six months last year.
●
The Company continues to purchase marketable securities,
which include municipal bonds and quality stocks. During the six-month period ended October 31, 2020 there was quite a bit
of buy/sell activity in the investment accounts. Net cash spent on purchases of marketable securities for the six-month period
ended October 31, 2020 was $186,000 compared to $250,000 spent in the prior six-month period. We continue to use “money
manager” accounts for most stock transactions. By doing this, the Company gives an independent third-party firm, who
are experts in this field, permission to buy and sell stocks at will. The Company pays a quarterly service fee based on the
value of the investments. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative impact on the performance of the stock market, which has
affected the real and unrealized gains/losses. Management believes that more realized losses were recorded when investments
were sold and more write downs had to be recorded.
Financing
●
On
April 15, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds of approximately $950,000 from FirsTier Bank, pursuant to the Paycheck
Protection Program under Division A, Title I of the CARES Act, which was enacted March 27, 2020. Please refer to Note 8 for
more information about the loan. In accordance with the terms of the loan, the Company used the proceeds for qualified operating
expenses. As of December 3, 2020, the liability of this loan has been completely forgiven.
●
The
Company continues to purchase back its common stock when the opportunity arises. For the six-month period ended October 31,
2020, the Company purchased $1,000 worth of treasury stock, in comparison to $54,000 repurchased in the corresponding six-month
period last year.
●
The
company declared a dividend of $0.42 per share of common stock on September 30, 2020, which was paid out during the second
quarter. This is a slight increase to the dividend of $0.40, which was declared and paid during the second fiscal quarter
last year.

Product Development
The
Company and its engineering department continue to develop enhancements to product lines, develop new products that complement
existing products, and look for products that are well suited to our distribution network and manufacturing capabilities. Items
currently in the development process include:
● Explosion
proof contacts that will be UL listed for hazardous locations. There has been demand
from our customers for this type of high security magnetic reed switch.
● An
updated version of the pool access alarm (PAA) has met electrical listing testing (ETL)
approval and we are currently waiting on component parts to begin production and field
testing. This next-generation model combines our battery operated DPA series with our
hard wired 289 series. A variety of installation options will be available through jumper
pin settings.
● Wireless
technology is a main area of focus for product development. We are considering adding
wireless technology to some of our current products. A wireless contact switch is in
the final stages of development. Also, we are working on wireless versions of our pool
access alarm and environmental sensors that will be easy to install in current construction.
We are also concentrating on making products compatible with Wi-Fi, smartphone technology
and the increasing popular Z-Wave standard for wireless home automation.
● In
the high security realm, the Company has introduced the 2707 Series which is a triple
high biased magnetic reed contact and available in SPDT and DPDT models. These contacts
are resistant to magnetic tamper and defeat. They are used in applications such as airports,
biotechnology labs, manufacturing plants, banks, military bases, and energy-generation
facilities.
● The
3045 Panic Switch contains screw terminals and uses an actuating lever which can be triggered
with only the tip of the finger. It can be installed under a counter or desk or any similar
place. The 3045CT uses 12’ extreme temperature rated wire for installation in refrigerators
and freezers. Both models have a latching LED indicating when the switch is activated
and automatically resets when the lever is closed and is fully re-armed. Latching LED
and UL Listed versions will follow.
Other
Information
In
addition to researching and developing new products, management is always open to the possibility of acquiring a business or product
line that would complement our existing operations. Due to the Company’s strong cash position, management believes this
could be achieved without the need for outside financing. The intent is to utilize the equipment, marketing techniques and established
customers to deliver new products and increase sales and profits.
There
are no known seasonal trends with any of GRI’s products since we sell to distributors and OEM manufacturers. Our products
are tied to the housing industry and will fluctuate with building trends.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “ Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement
of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ”, which requires entities to use a forward looking approach based on expected
losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The FASB has subsequently
issued updates to the standard to provide additional clarification on specific topics. Topic 326 is effective for fiscal years,
and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. We have applied this guidance, as of May 1,
2020, using a modified-retrospective approach. The application of this guidance did not require a cumulative effect adjustment
to retained earnings and did not have a material effect on our financial statements.
In
August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement - Disclosure Framework (Topic 820). The updated guidance improves
the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The updated guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods
within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for any removed or modified disclosures.
We applied this guidance, as of May 1, 2020. The application of this guidance did not have a material effect on our disclosures.
In
January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and
Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323,
and Topic 815.” The ASU is based on a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force and is expected to increase comparability
in accounting for these transactions. ASU 2016-01 made targeted improvements to accounting for financial instruments, including
providing an entity the ability to measure certain equity securities without a readily determinable fair value at cost, less any
impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar
investment of the same issuer. Among other topics, the amendments clarify that an entity should consider observable transactions
that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting. For public business entities, the amendments in
the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early
adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-01 to have a material impact on its financial statements.
There
are no other new accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.
