Significant Accounting Policies

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation: The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SB Holdings and its subsidiaries and are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and, in the opinion of the Company, include all adjustments (which are normal and recurring in nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at March 30, 2014, the results of operations for the three and six month periods ended March 30, 2014 and March 31, 2013, the comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six month periods ended March 30, 2014 and March 31, 2013 and the cash flows for the six month periods ended March 30, 2014 and March 31, 2013. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.

Change in Accounting Principle: During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company made a change in accounting principle to present tax withholdings for share-based payment awards paid to taxing authorities on behalf of an employee as a financing activity within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (Unaudited). Such amounts were previously presented within operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (Unaudited). The Company believes this change is preferable as the predominant characteristic of the transaction is a financing activity. The Company has reclassified the following amounts within its previously reported Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (Unaudited) on a retrospective basis to reflect this change in accounting principle:

Cash flows from financing activities - Share based award tax withholding payments:

Reclassification of share based award tax withholding payments	(17,946		)

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Intangible Assets: Intangible assets are recorded at cost or at fair value if acquired in a purchase business combination. Customer relationships and proprietary technology intangibles are amortized, using the straight-line method, over their estimated useful lives. Excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired (goodwill) and indefinite lived trade name intangibles are not amortized. Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350: “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other,” requires that goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets be tested for impairment annually, or more often if an event or circumstance indicates that an impairment loss may have been incurred. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level, with such groupings being consistent with the Company’s reportable segments. If an impairment is indicated, a write-down to fair value (normally measured by discounting estimated future cash flows) is recorded. Indefinite lived trade name intangibles are tested for impairment at least annually by comparing the fair value with the carrying value. Any excess of carrying value over fair value is recognized as an impairment loss in income from operations.

The Company’s annual impairment testing is completed at the August financial period end. Management uses its judgment in assessing whether assets may have become impaired between annual impairment tests. Indicators such as unexpected adverse business conditions, economic factors, unanticipated technological change or competitive activities, loss of key personnel, and acts by governments and courts may signal that an asset has become impaired.

Shipping and Handling Costs: The Company incurred shipping and handling costs of $63,705 and $128,336 for the three and six month periods ended March 30, 2014, respectively, and $66,031 and $116,027 for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2013, respectively. These costs are included in Selling expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (Unaudited). Shipping and handling costs include costs incurred with third-party carriers to transport products to customers as well as salaries and overhead costs related to activities to prepare the Company’s products for shipment from its distribution facilities.

Concentrations of Credit Risk: Trade receivables subject the Company to credit risk. Trade accounts receivable are carried at net realizable value. The Company extends credit to its customers based upon an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and credit history, and generally does not require collateral. The Company monitors its customers’ credit and financial condition based on changing economic conditions and makes adjustments to credit policies as required. Provisions for losses on uncollectible trade receivables are determined based on ongoing evaluations of the Company’s receivables, principally on the basis of historical collection experience and evaluations of the risks of nonpayment for a given customer.

The Company has a broad range of customers including many large retail outlet chains, one of which accounts for a significant percentage of its sales volume. This customer represented approximately 16% of the Company’s Net sales during both the three and six month periods ended March 30, 2014, and 16% and 19% of the Company’s Net sales during the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2013, respectively. This customer also represented approximately 10% and 11% of the Company’s Trade accounts receivable, net at March 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, respectively.

Approximately 39% and 43% of the Company’s Net sales during the three and six month periods ended March 30, 2014, respectively, and 37% and 44% of the Company’s Net sales during the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2013, respectively, occurred outside the U.S. These sales and related receivables are subject to varying degrees of credit, currency, political and economic risk. The Company monitors these risks and makes appropriate provisions for collectability based on an assessment of the risks present.

Stock-Based Compensation: The Company measures the cost of its stock-based compensation plans based on the fair value of its employee stock awards and recognizes these costs over the requisite service period of the awards.

Total stock compensation expense associated with restricted stock units recognized by the Company during the three and six month periods ended March 30, 2014 was $10,427 and $16,776, respectively. Total stock compensation expense associated with restricted stock units recognized by the Company during the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2013 was $11,382 and $14,157, respectively.

The Company granted approximately 5 and 409 restricted stock units during the three and six month periods ended March 30, 2014, respectively. The 409 restricted stock units granted during the six months ended March 30, 2014 consist of 81 restricted stock units that vested immediately, and 35 time-based restricted stock units that vest over a one year period. The remaining 293 restricted stock units are performance and time-based and vest over a two year period. The total market value of the restricted stock units on the dates of the grants was approximately $28,294.

The Company granted approximately 62 and 614 restricted stock units during the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2013, respectively. The 614 restricted stock units granted during the six months ended March 31, 2013 consist of 90 time-based restricted stock units that vest over a one year period and 524 restricted stock units are performance and time-based and vest over a two year period. The total market value of the restricted stock units on the dates of the grants was approximately $27,769.

The fair value of restricted stock units is determined based on the market price of the Company’s shares of common stock on the grant date. A summary of the activity in the Company’s non-vested restricted stock units during the six months ended March 30, 2014 is as follows:



Restricted Stock Units	Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value		Fair Value at Grant Date
Non-vested restricted stock units at September 30, 2013	1,104		$	39.01	$	43,067
Granted	409		69.18		28,294
Vested	(928	)	39.29		(36,458		)
Non-vested restricted stock units at March 30, 2014	585		$	59.66	$	34,903
