Note 20 - Concentration of Credit Risk and Off-Balance Sheet Risk

Cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, all the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were deposited in accounts at several financial institutions. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with high-quality, accredited financial institutions and, accordingly, such funds are subject to minimal credit risk. The Company may maintain balances with financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses historically in these accounts and believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk in its cash and cash equivalents.  The Company has no significant off-balance sheet concentrations of credit risk, such as foreign currency exchange contracts, option contracts, or other hedging arrangements.

 

The largest customer of the Company had purchases that represented approximately 4% and 6% of total gross sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and approximately 4% and 6% for the three months ending September 30, 2019 and 2018.  Accounts receivable from the largest customer represented 38% and 54% of accounts receivable at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
