Item 8  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of Optex Systems Holdings, Inc.

Richardson, Texas

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. (the Company) as of October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. as of October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Notes 16 and 17 to the financial statements, the Company restated certain amounts previously reported as of and for the year ended October 2, 2016.

Note 1 — Organization and Operations

Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. (The Company) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 2, 2016, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 23, 2016. The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 2, 2016 to correct the manner in which the Company recorded 4,125,200 warrants that were issued in conjunction with common stock and Series C preferred shares pursuant to a public offering on August 26, 2016. These restatements have been reflected in the amended financial statements contained herein. The errors which were included in the December 23, 2016 Form 10-K Annual Report were incurred during the final month of the 2016 fiscal year and were subsequently identified in the following quarter prior to submission of any interim reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As such, restated balances are limited to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ending October 2, 2016. Please refer to Note 17 – Restatements for a complete summary of the restatement adjustments and an “As Reported” and “As Restated” comparison of the affected balances within the financial reports. As required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, new certifications by Optex Systems Holdings, Inc.’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are being filed with this Form 10-K/A as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2. In addition, Item 8 has been amended to contain a currently-dated consent of independent registered public accounting firms.

On March 30, 2009, Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as Sustut Exploration, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (“Optex Systems Holdings”), along with Optex Systems, Inc., a privately held Delaware corporation (“Optex Systems, Inc.“), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Optex Systems Holdings, entered into a reorganization agreement, pursuant to which Optex Systems, Inc. was acquired by Optex Systems Holdings in a share exchange transaction. Optex Systems Holdings became the surviving corporation. At the closing, there was a name change from Sustut Exploration, Inc. to Optex Systems Holdings, Inc., and its year end changed from December 31 to a fiscal year ending on the Sunday nearest September 30.

On October 14, 2008, certain senior secured creditors of Irvine Sensors Corporation, Longview Fund, L.P. (Longview) and Alpha Capital Anstalt formed Optex Systems, Inc., which acquired all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Optex Systems, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Optex Systems, Inc. (Texas)”), and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Irvine Sensors Corporation, in a transaction that was consummated via purchase at a public auction. Following this asset purchase, Optex Systems, Inc. (Texas) remained a wholly-owned subsidiary of Irvine Sensors Corporation.

On February 20, 2009, Sileas Corporation (Sileas), a newly-formed Delaware corporation, owned by present members of Optex Systems Holdings’ management, purchased 100% of Longview’s equity and debt interest in Optex Systems, Inc. (Longview’s interest in Optex Systems, Inc. then representing 90% of the issued and outstanding common equity interests in Optex Systems, Inc.), in a private transaction.

Optex Systems, Inc. operated as a privately-held Delaware corporation until March 30, 2009, when, as a result of a reverse merger transaction consummated pursuant to a reorganization agreement dated March 30, 2009, it became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Optex Systems Holdings. Sileas is the majority owner (parent) of Optex Systems Holdings, owning approximately 46.9% of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Optex Systems Holdings. The financial statements of Optex Systems Holdings represent subsidiary statements and do not include the accounts of its majority owner.

Optex Systems Holdings’ operations are based in Dallas and Richardson, Texas in leased facilities comprising 93,967 square feet. As of October 2, 2016, Optex Systems Holdings operated with 91 full-time equivalent employees.

Optex Systems Holdings manufactures optical sighting systems and assemblies, for the U.S. Department of Defense, foreign military applications and commercial markets. Its products are installed on a variety of U.S. military land vehicles, such as the Abrams and Bradley fighting vehicles, light armored and advanced security vehicles, and have been selected for installation on the Stryker family of vehicles. Optex Systems Holdings also manufactures and delivers numerous periscope configurations, rifle and surveillance sights and night vision optical assemblies. Optex Systems Holdings’ products consist primarily of build to customer print products that are delivered both directly to the military and to other defense prime contractors or commercial customers.

In February 2009, Optex Systems Holdings’ ISO certification status was upgraded from 9001:2000 to 9001:2008, bringing Optex Systems Holdings into compliance with the new ISO standards rewritten to align with ISO 14001.

On November 3, 2014, Optex Systems, Inc. entered into a Purchase Agreement with L-3 Communications, Inc. (“L-3”) pursuant to which Optex purchased from L-3 the assets comprising L-3’s Applied Optics Center (AOC) Products Line (“Purchased Assets”), which is engaged in the production and marketing and sales of precision optical assemblies utilizing thin film coating capabilities for optical systems and components primarily used for military purposes. See Note 4 Acquisition of L-3’s Applied Optics Center.

U.S. military spending has been significantly reduced as a result of the Congressional sequestration cuts to defense spending, which began in fiscal year 2013. As a result of lower U.S. government spending, the Company has continued to explore other opportunities for manufacturing outside of our traditional product lines for products which could be manufactured using our existing lines in order to fully utilize our existing capacity. Further, we continue to look for additional strategic businesses to acquire that will strengthen our existing product line, expand our operations, and enter new markets.

Note 2 — Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Principles of Consolidation:  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Optex Systems Holdings and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Optex Systems, Inc.  All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been 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 management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates.

Segment Reporting: FASB ASC 280 requires that a public business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Generally, financial information is required to be reported on the basis that it is used internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to segments. Segments are determined based on differences in products, internal reporting and how operational decisions are made. Management has determined that the Optex Systems, Richardson plant, and the Applied Optics Center, Dallas plant, which was acquired on November 3, 2014, are separately managed, organized, and internally reported as separate business segments. The FASB ASC 280 requires that a public business enterprise report a measure of segment profit or loss, certain specific revenue and expense items, and segment assets. It requires reconciliations of total segment revenues, total segment profit or loss, total segment assets, and other amounts disclosed for segments to corresponding amounts in the enterprise’s general-purpose financial statements.

Fiscal Year:  Optex System Holdings’ fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest September 30.  Fiscal year 2016 ended on October 2, 2016 and included 53 weeks.  Fiscal year 2015 ended on September 27, 2015 and included 52 weeks.

Financial Instruments Indexed to and Potentially Settled in the Company’s Common Stock: The Company evaluates all financial instruments issued in connection with its equity offerings when determining the proper accounting treatment for such instruments in the Company’s financial statements. The Company considers a number of generally accepted accounting principles under U.S. GAAP to determine such treatment and evaluates the features of the instrument to determine the appropriate accounting treatment. For financial instruments either classified as a liabilities pursuant to ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” indexed to and potentially settled in the Company’s common stock that are determined to be classified as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet, changes in fair value are recorded as a gain or loss in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations with the corresponding amount recorded as an adjustment to the liability on its consolidated balance sheets.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:  FASB ASC 825-10 requires disclosure of fair value information about certain financial instruments, including, but not limited to, cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, refundable tax credits, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable to related parties and convertible debt-related securities. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of fiscal years ended October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015.

The carrying value of the balance sheet cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable, are carried at, or approximate, fair value as of the reporting date because of their short-term nature. Fair values for the Company’s warrant liabilities and derivatives are estimated by utilizing valuation models that consider current and expected stock prices, volatility, dividends, market interest rates, forward yield curves and discount rates.  Such amounts and the recognition of such amounts are subject to significant estimates that may change in the future.

The accounting guidance FASB ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value and requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The accounting guidance establishes a hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of quoted market prices and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. An asset or liability’s level is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Fair value estimates are reviewed at the origination date and again at the each applicable measurement date and interim or annual financial reporting dates, as applicable for the financial instrument, and are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management at those times.

The methods and significant inputs and assumptions utilized in estimating the fair value of the warrant liabilities are discussed further in Note 16 “Warrant Liabilities". Each of the measurements is considered a Level 3 measurement as a result of at least one unobservable input.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:  For financial statement presentation purposes, Optex Systems Holdings considers those short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents. Optex Systems Holdings’ has $2,568 thousand in cash on deposit with our bank. Only a portion of the cash, currently $250 thousand, would be covered by federal deposit insurance and the uninsured balances are substantially greater than the insured amounts. We are exploring options to invest a portion of the excess cash into short term treasuries covered by federal deposit insurance in the near term.

Concentration of Credit Risk: Optex Systems Holdings’ revenues and accounts receivables for fiscal year ended October 2, 2016 are derived from sales to U.S. government agencies (45%), General Dynamics (18%), Nightforce Optics, Inc. (15%) and all other contractors (22%).  Optex Systems Holdings does not believe that this concentration results in undue credit risk because of the financial strength of the obligees.

Accounts Receivable: Optex Systems Holdings records its accounts receivable at the original sales invoice amount less liquidations for previously collected advance/progress bills and an allowance for doubtful accounts. An account receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding beyond its scheduled due date. On a quarterly basis, Optex Systems Holdings evaluates its accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts, based on its history of past write-offs and collections, and current credit conditions. No interest is accrued on past due accounts receivable. As of October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, Optex Systems Holdings had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $42 thousand and $8 thousand, for non U.S. government account balances greater than 120 days. As the customer base is primarily U.S. government and government prime contractors, Optex Systems Holdings allowance for doubtful accounts is minimal.  Optex Systems Holdings charges uncollectible accounts to bad debt expense in the period as they are first deemed uncollectible.  In the fiscal year 2016 there was $36 thousand, and in 2015, there was $5 thousand in bad debt expenses associated with uncollectable accounts.

Inventory: Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or market, and adjusted as appropriate for decreases in valuation and obsolescence. Adjustments to the valuation and obsolescence reserves are made after analyzing market conditions, current and projected sales activity, inventory costs and inventory balances to determine appropriate reserve levels. Cost is determined using the first-in first-out method. Under arrangements by which progress payments are received against certain contracts, the customer retains a security interest in the undelivered inventory identified with these contracts.  Payments received for such undelivered inventory are classified as unliquidated progress payments and deducted from the gross inventory balance.  As of October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015 inventory included:

Net inventory increased $501 thousand during the year ended October 2, 2016. The increase in net inventory is primarily in support of higher backlog and revenue in the current year over the prior year.

Warranty Costs: Some of Optex Systems Holdings’ customers require that the company warrant the quality of its products to meet customer requirements and be free of defects for up to fifteen months subsequent to delivery.   Future warranty costs are based on the estimated cost of replacement for expected returns based upon our most recent experience rate of defects as a percentage of warranty covered sales. Throughout the year, warranty costs are expensed as incurred, and as of each year end, Optex Systems Holdings reviews the prior 15 month warranty experience rate and may adjust the warranty accrual as required to cover any additional anticipated warranty costs related to prior shipments. As of October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, the existing warranty reserve balances of $28 thousand and $28 thousand, respectively, were reviewed and determined to be adequate to satisfy any future warranty claims that may have existed as of the end of each fiscal year for shipments occurring in the prior 15 months.

Property and Equipment:  Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to seven years. Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized.  Expenditures for minor items, repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Gain or loss upon sale or retirement due to obsolescence is reflected in the operating results in the period the event takes place.

Revenue Recognition: Optex Systems Holdings recognizes revenue based on the modified percentage of completion method utilizing the units-of-delivery method, in accordance with FASB ASC 605-35: 

The units-of-delivery method recognizes as revenue the contract price of units of a basic production product delivered during a period and as the cost of earned revenue the costs allocable to the delivered units. Costs allocable to undelivered units are reported in the balance sheet as inventory or work in progress. The method is used in circumstances in which an entity produces units of a basic product under production-type contracts in a continuous or sequential production process to buyers’ specifications.

Optex Systems Holdings contracts are fixed price production type contracts whereby a defined order quantity is delivered to the customer during a continuous or sequential production process tailored to the buyer’s specifications (build to print).  Optex Systems Holdings’ deliveries against these contracts generally occur in monthly increments across fixed delivery periods spanning from 3 to 36 months.

Customer Advance Deposits: Customer advance deposits represent amounts collected from customers in advance of shipment or revenue recognition which relate to undelivered product due to non-substantive milestone payments or other cash in advance payment terms. As of October 2, 2016, Optex Systems, Inc. had a balance of $559 thousand in customer advance deposits related to a 2011 customer contract. The terms of the contract extend through 2018 during which time we are required to purchase the necessary materials to fulfill the delivery of products required by the contract. Of the total collected customer advance deposits, $559 thousand related to short term customer advance deposits for deliveries to occur within the next twelve months.

Estimated Costs at Completion and Accrued Loss on Contracts:  Optex Systems Holdings reviews and reports on the performance of its contracts and production orders against the respective resource plans for such contracts/orders. These reviews are summarized in the form of estimates at completion. Estimates at completion include Optex Systems Holdings’ incurred costs to date against the contract/order plus management’s current estimates of remaining amounts for direct labor, material, other direct costs and subcontract support and indirect overhead costs based on the completion status and future contractual requirements for each order.

If an estimate at completion indicates a potential overrun against budgeted resources for a fixed price contract/order, management first attempts to implement lower cost solutions that will profitably meet the requirements of the fixed price contract. If such solutions do not appear practicable, management makes a determination whether to seek renegotiation of contract or order requirements from the customer. If neither cost reduction nor renegotiation appears probable, an accrual for the contract loss/overrun is recorded against earnings and the loss is recognized in the first period the loss is identified based on the most recent estimates at completion of the particular contract or product order. As of October 2, 2016 there was $0 in contract loss reserves. As of September 27, 2015 the contract loss reserves were $54 thousand.

During 2010, Optex Systems Holdings realized increased losses against the Howitzer programs of $1.1 million of which $0.8 million related specifically to production issues encountered on our Howitzer product line.  Increased losses were primarily attributable to manufacturing issues on our U.S. government Howitzer Aiming Circles culminating in higher material scrap and labor hours, combined with a reduction in total production volume in 2010 which further impacted production efficiencies across all product lines.  Optex Systems Holdings requested an equitable adjustment on this program due to significant design issues impacting the manufacturability of the product.  As there was no guarantee that the request would be granted in part or in full, we realized the entire loss in fiscal year 2010. The initial equitable adjustment claim was formally rejected by the contracting agency on May 31, 2012; however, Optex Systems Holdings appealed the decision with the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (ASBCA). In September 2015, the U.S. Government agreed to an $850,000 settlement against the claim for the Aiming Circle contract number W52H09-06-D-0229. The settlement is the result of a negotiation and fact gathering process managed through the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (ASBCA). A contract modification was issued on September 23, 2015 increasing the total contract price by the agreed amount. As the respective units were shipped complete in 2011, the contract was essentially complete on execution of the modification and the entire amount was recorded as revenue for the twelve months ended September 27, 2015.

Government Contracts:  Many of Optex Systems Holdings’ contracts are prime or subcontracted directly with the Federal government and as such, are subject to Federal Acquisition Regulation (Federal Acquisition Regulation) Subpart 49.5, “Contract Termination Clauses” and more specifically Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses 52.249-2 “Termination for Convenience of the Government (Fixed-Price)”, and 49.504 “Termination of fixed-price contracts for default”.  These clauses are standard clauses on prime military contracts and are generally, “flowed down” to Optex Systems Holdings as subcontractors on other military business.  It has been Optex Systems Holdings’ experience that the termination for convenience is rarely invoked, except where it has been mutually beneficial for both parties.  Optex Systems Holdings is not currently aware of any pending terminations for convenience or default on its existing contracts.

 In the event a termination for convenience were to occur, these Federal Acquisition Regulation  clause 52.249-2 provides for full recovery of all contractual costs and profits reasonably incurred up to and as a result of the terminated contract.  In the event a termination for default were to occur, Optex Systems Holdings could be liable for any excess cost incurred by the government to acquire supplies from another supplier similar to those terminated from Optex Systems Holdings.  Optex Systems Holdings would not be liable for any excess costs if the failure to perform the contract arises from causes beyond its control and without its fault or negligence as defined by Federal Acquisition Regulation clause 52.249-8.  In addition, the government may require Optex Systems Holdings to transfer title and deliver to the government any completed supplies, partially completed supplies and materials, parts, tools, dies, jigs, fixtures, plans, drawings, information, and contract rights that Optex Systems Holdings has specifically produced or acquired for the terminated portion of this contract.  The government shall pay contract price for completed supplies delivered and accepted, and Optex Systems Holdings and the government would negotiate an agreed upon amount of payment for manufacturing materials delivered and accepted and for the protection and preservation of the property. Failure to agree on an amount for manufacturing materials is subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation Disputes clause 52.233-1.

In some cases, Optex Systems Holdings may receive orders subject to subsequent price negotiation on contracts exceeding the federal government simplified acquisition threshold of $750,000.  These “undefinitized” contracts are considered firm contracts but as Cost Accounting Standards Board covered contracts, they are subject to the Truth in Negotiations Act disclosure requirements and downward only price negotiation.  As of October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, Optex Systems had no booked orders that fell under this criterion.

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets: Optex Systems Holdings follows the provisions of FASB ASC 360-10, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”.  This standard requires, among other things, that long-lived assets be reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future pre-tax cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such assets, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of impairment requires management to estimate future cash flows and the fair value of long-lived assets. No impairment of long-lived assets was recorded for the periods presented.

Stock-Based Compensation: FASB ASC 718 establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, but primarily focuses on transactions whereby an entity obtains employee services for share-based payments. FASB ASC 718 requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments.

Optex Systems Holdings’ accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement. Stock-based compensation related to non-employees is accounted for based on the fair value of the related stock or options or the fair value of the services, whichever is more readily determinable in accordance with FASB ASC 718.

Beneficial Conversion Features of Convertible Securities: Conversion options that are not bifurcated as a derivative pursuant to ASC 815 and not accounted for as a separate equity component under the cash conversion guidance are evaluated to determine whether they are beneficial to the investor at inception (a beneficial conversion feature) or may become beneficial in the future due to potential adjustments. The beneficial conversion feature guidance in ASC 470-20 applies to convertible stock as well as convertible debt which are outside the scope of ASC 815. A beneficial conversion feature is defined as a nondetachable conversion feature that is in the money at the commitment date. In addition, some of our preferred stock shares contain conversion terms that may change upon the occurrence of a future event, such as antidilution adjustment provisions. The beneficial conversion feature guidance requires recognition of the conversion option’s in-the-money portion, the intrinsic value of the option, in equity, with an offsetting reduction to the carrying amount of the instrument. The resulting discount is amortized as a dividend over either the life of the instrument, if a stated maturity date exists, or to the earliest conversion date, if there is no stated maturity date. If the earliest conversion date is immediately upon issuance, the dividend must be recognized at inception. When there is a subsequent change to the conversion ratio based on a future occurrence, the new conversion price may trigger the recognition of an additional beneficial conversion feature on occurrence.

Optex Systems Holdings has preferred stock, convertible into common shares, containing beneficial conversion features at inception as well as potential beneficial conversion features that could be triggered by future adjustments to the conversion price. Because our preferred stock is perpetual, with no stated maturity date, and the conversions may occur any time from inception, the dividend is recognized immediately when a beneficial conversion exists at issuance. During the twelve months ending September 27, 2015, Optex Systems Holdings recognized preferred stock dividends of $6.4 million on Series A and Series B preferred stock related to the beneficial conversion feature arising from a common stock conversion rate of $2.50 versus a current market price of $10.00 per common share (post-split). The August 26, 2016 public offering triggered a reset of the preferred stock conversion rate from $2.50 per common share to $1.20 per common share on our Series A and Series B preferred shares and resulted in a $0.8 million beneficial conversion feature. The public offering also included a beneficial conversion feature of $0.4 million at the August 26, 2016 commitment date of the 400 shares of Series C preferred stock issued in the offering, based on the effective conversion price of the shares, net of the allocated warrant proceeds. During the twelve months ending October 2, 2016, Optex Systems Holdings recognized a total preferred stock dividend of $1.2 million as a result of the beneficial conversion features triggered on the existing and new issues of preferred shares. See Note 13 “Stockholders Equity” and Note 16 “Warrant Liabilities”.

Intangible Assets:  Optex Systems Holdings has acquisition-related intangible assets which include the fair market value of customer order backlog as of the acquisition date. We determine the fair value of intangible assets using the income approach methodology of valuation that includes the discounted cash flow method as well as other generally accepted valuation methodologies, which requires some judgment by management.  Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets is expensed to total operating expenses as cost of sales and general and administrative expenses on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, unless such lives are deemed indefinite. Amortizable intangible assets are tested for impairment based on undiscounted cash flows and, if impaired, written down to fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised values. The residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted, if appropriate. Optex Systems Holdings identified intangible assets of $342 thousand from the acquisition of the Applied Optics Center from L3 on November 3, 2014 which consisted primarily of customer backlog, with an initial useful life of less than one year. As of October 2, 2016 the unamortized balance of the intangible assets was zero. See Note 6.

Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested annually for impairment, during the fiscal fourth quarter and between annual periods, if impairment indicators exist, and are written down to fair value as required.

Income Tax/Deferred Tax: FASB ASC 740 requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differing treatment of items for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes. The deferred tax balances are adjusted to reflect tax rates by tax jurisdiction, based on currently enacted tax laws, which will be in effect in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. Under FASB ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that Optex Systems Holdings will not realize tax assets through future operations. When assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets, management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies. Based on those estimates, management has determined that the deferred tax assets may not be realized and has established a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset balance. As of October 2, 2016 Optex Systems Inc. has a deferred tax asset valuation allowance of ($4.7) million against deferred tax assets of $4.7 million.

Earnings per Share: Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available for common shareholders (the numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

The potentially dilutive securities that Optex Systems Holdings has outstanding are convertible preferred stock, stock options and warrants. In computing the dilutive effect of convertible preferred stock, the numerator is adjusted to add back any convertible preferred dividends, and the denominator is increased to assume the conversion of the number of additional common shares. Optex Systems Holdings uses the Treasury Stock Method to compute the dilutive effect of stock options and warrants. Convertible preferred stock, stock options and warrants that are anti-dilutive are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share.

For the twelve months ended October 2, 2016, 4,125,200 warrants, 360 Series C preferred stock and 52,840 stock options were excluded as anti-dilutive due to the net loss attributable to common shareholders during the years. For the twelve months ended September 27, 2015, 1,001 shares of Series A preferred stock, 994 shares of Series B preferred stock, 62,858 stock options and 1,000 warrants were excluded as anti-dilutive due to the net loss attributable to common shareholders during the years.

Note 3 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments ("ASU 2016-15"). ASU 2016-15 reduces diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in ASU 2016-15 provide guidance on specific cash flow issues including debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, and distributions received from equity method investees. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-15 on our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities and loans, and requires entities to use a new forward-looking expected loss model that will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for losses. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for a fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Entities will apply the standard's provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. We are currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-13 on our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09 amending several aspects of share-based payment accounting. This guidance requires all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies to be recorded in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled, with prospective application required. The guidance also changes the classification of such tax benefits or tax deficiencies on the statement of cash flows from a financing activity to an operating activity, with retrospective or prospective application allowed. Additionally, the guidance requires the classification of employee taxes paid when an employer withholds shares for tax-withholding purposes as a financing activity on the statement of cash flows, with retrospective application required. This ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) (“ASU 2016-08”). ASU 2016-08 does not change the core principle of Topic 606 but clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. ASU 2016-08 is effective for the annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-08 on our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842). The update is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application of the amendments in this update is permitted. Optex Systems Holdings is currently evaluating the impact of FASB ASU 2016-02 and expects the adoption thereof will have a material effect on Optex Systems Holdings’ presentation of balance sheet assets and liabilities based on the present value of future lease payments, but does not expect a material effect on the presentation of expenses and cash flows

In July 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-11—Inventory (Topic 330): “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”.  The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this Update should be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The update is part of FASB’s Simplification Initiative, the objective of which is to identify, evaluate, and improve areas of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for which cost and complexity can be reduced. Pursuant to the update, an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The amendments in the update more closely align the measurement of inventory in GAAP with the measurement of inventory in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Optex Systems Holdings is currently evaluating the impact of FASB ASU 2015-11 but does not expect the adoption thereof to have a material effect on Optex Systems Holdings’ financial statements.

In August 2015, FASB Issued ASU 2015-14—“Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date” The amendments in this update defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities by one year. Public business entities should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. See also ASU 2014-09 issued in May 2014. 

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-15—Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (ASC Subtopic 205-40): “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. The update requires management to assess a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. All entities are required to apply the new requirements in annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted.

Note 4 - Purchase of L-3’s Applied Optics Products Center

On November 3, 2014, Optex Systems, Inc. entered into a Purchase Agreement with L-3 pursuant to which Optex Systems, Inc. purchased from L-3 the assets comprising L-3’s Applied Optics Products Line (“Purchased Assets”). The Applied Optics Center is primarily engaged in the production, marketing and sales of precision optical assemblies utilizing thin film coating capabilities for optical systems and components primarily used for military purposes. The Purchased Assets consist of personal property, inventory, books and records, contracts, prepaid expenses and deposits, intellectual property, and governmental contracts and licenses utilized in the business comprised of the Purchased Assets.

The purchase price for the Purchased Assets was $1,013.1 thousand, which was paid in full at closing, plus the assumption of certain liabilities associated with the Purchased Assets in the amount of $270.7. The source of funds for the acquisition consisted of Optex Systems, Inc.’s working capital of $213.1 thousand and an advance of $800 thousand from accredited investors which was subsequently consummated on November 17, 2014 through the private placement of convertible notes issued by Optex Systems Holdings in a transaction exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. See Note 11 “Issuance of Convertible Notes”.

The asset acquisition met the definition of a business for business combinations under ASC 805-10-20. The following table reconciles the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities to the total purchase price of the Applied Optics Center Acquisition (in thousands): 

The aggregate purchase consideration has been allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired, including identifiable intangible assets, based on their respective estimated fair values. The total assets acquired exceeded the total consideration paid, thus there is no goodwill associated with the asset purchase and the acquisition has been determined as a bargain purchase which requires immediate recognition of a gain on the purchased assets. The gain is reflected in earnings in Other Income on the Consolidated Statement of Operations as “Gain on Purchased Asset”.

The intangible assets include finite-life intangibles associated with undelivered customer backlog as of the acquisition date and was valued using the income approach methodology that includes the discounted cash flow method as well as other generally accepted valuation methodologies, which requires significant judgment by management.  The cash flow projections took into effect the expected net sales from the customer backlog as of November 3, 2014 and the corresponding expenses against those sales in the respective periods. The shipments against the customer backlog were delivered completed between January and June of 2015, and as such, the intangible amortization against those shipments was complete by June 28, 2015. As of October 2, 2016 the balance in unamortized intangible assets was zero.

The respective estimated fair values for property plant & equipment, and fixed assets were determined by an independent third-party appraisal firm. The appraisal methods employed by the firm in arriving at the final values on all of the equipment included a combination of the “Cost Approach” the “Market Data Approach” as well as “Income Approach” on specific high historical cost assets as presented by the seller. Certain assets which had very specific military manufacturing applications were operating at less than optimal capacity due to significantly reduced government spending from historical levels related to those processes. The excess or “idle” capacity on these unique assets was considered in the appraiser’s valuation, and the appraised values adjusted downward accordingly, in consideration of the reduced revenue and corresponding limited cash flow that could reasonably be generated from these assets under the current market conditions.

Separate from the appraisal analysis, Optex Systems, Inc. completed a physical inventory of all raw material, work in process and finished goods inventories in their various stages of production as of the acquisition date, and conducted a thorough revaluation and review of the counted inventory carrying values giving downward consideration to any excess, obsolete, or other product inventories which were valued in excess of the expected net realizable values given the depressed market conditions. Based on the supplemental inventory review, combined with the income approach used on the excess and idle capacity assets applied by the appraiser, the company was satisfied that the third party appraisal fairly valued those assets. The total fair value appraisal for the purchased assets, before intangible assets and assumed liabilities approximated 73% of the net carrying values of those same assets on the sellers closing balance sheet as of November 3, 2014.

Optex Systems Holdings believes that it was able to acquire the Applied Optics Center for less than the fair value of its assets because of (i) its unique position as a market leader in the industry sector that directly utilizes the manufactured components specific to the Applied Optics Center, (ii) a previous customer/supplier relationship with the acquisition target, (iii) L-3’s intent to exit the optical coating operations, and (iv) L-3’s desire to provide for continued employment of the Applied Optics Center workforce. The Applied Optics Center had a recent history of losses, and the seller approached Optex Systems, Inc. in an effort to sell the product line and exit the optical coating manufacturing business that no longer fit its strategy. With the seller's intent to exit the business segment and Optex’s position as a market leader within the same industry sector utilizing the product line capability, Optex Systems, Inc. was able to agree on a favorable purchase price with L-3 Communications.

As a result of the asset purchase, the company has incurred additional acquisition-related costs of approximately $40.2 thousand for legal, accounting and valuation consulting fees which have been expensed to general administrative costs in 2015.

Note 5 Segment Reporting

Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. has two reportable segments which include Optex Systems (OPX)-Richardson, and Applied Optics Center (AOC) – Dallas. The accounting policies for each segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. evaluates performance based on profit and loss from operations before income taxes excluding nonrecurring gains and losses.

The Optex Systems Holdings reportable segments are strategic businesses offering similar products to similar markets and customers; however the companies are operated and managed separately due to differences in manufacturing technology, equipment, geographic location, and specific product mix. The Applied Optics Center was acquired as a unit, and the management at the time of the acquisition was retained.

The Applied Optics Center segment also serves as the key supplier of the laser coated filters used in the production of periscope assemblies at the Optex Systems Richardson segment. Intersegment sales and transfers are accounted for at annually agreed to pricing rates based on estimated segment product cost, which includes segment direct manufacturing and general and administrative costs, but exclude profits that would apply to third party external customers.

Optex Systems – Dallas, serves as the home office for both segments and shared general and administrative costs attributable to both segments are allocated directly to the segments based on the government costs accounting standard, CAS 403 – “Allocation of Home Office Expenses to Segments”. The purpose of CAS 403 is to provide criteria for allocating home office expenses to the segments of an organization based on the beneficial or causal relationships between the expenses and the receiving segments. Based on CAS 403, Optex Systems Holdings allocates home office expenses based on a three factor formula which is the average of the following three percentages for the each segments fiscal year:

(1) The percentage of segment payroll dollars to total payroll dollars of all segments;

(2) The percentage of the segment’s operating revenue to the total operating revenue of all segments

(3) The percentage of the average net book value of the sum of the segment’s tangible capital assets plus inventories to the total average net book value of such assets of all segments.

Optex Systems (OPX) – Richardson, Texas

Optex Systems, Inc. manufactures optical sighting systems and assemblies, primarily for Department of Defense applications.

Note 6 – Intangible Assets

On November 3, 2014, Optex Systems, Inc. purchased the Applied Optics Center Products line in exchange for $1,013.1 thousand and the assumption of approximately $270.7 thousand of liabilities (see Note 4). Optex Systems, Inc. has allocated the consideration for the acquisition of the purchased assets among tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their fair values as of the acquisition date. Assets that met the criteria for recognition as intangible assets apart from goodwill were also valued at their fair values.

The purchase price was assigned to the acquired interest in the assets and liabilities of Optex Systems Holdings as of November 3, 2014 as follows:

The fair values of the intangible assets as of the asset transfer date consisted primarily of $342.2 thousand of undelivered customer order backlog with contracted delivery dates that were essentially fulfilled as of June 28, 2015. The amortization of identifiable intangible assets associated with the acquisition has been amortized on a straight line basis over the six month period beginning on December 29, 2014 and ending June 28, 2015 at a rate of $57.0 thousand per month pursuant to the order deliveries.

 Restricted Stock Units issued to Officers and Employees

On June 14, 2016, the Compensation Committee (“Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. approved the Company’s 2016 Restricted Stock Unit Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for the issuance of stock units (“RSU”) for up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Optex Systems Holdings officers and employees. Each RSU constitutes a right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock, subject to vesting, which unless otherwise stated in an RSU agreement, shall vest in equal amounts on the first, second and third anniversary of the grant date. Shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the number of vested RSUs will be delivered as soon as practicable after vesting. During the period between grant and vesting, the RSUs may not be transferred, and the grantee has no rights as a shareholder until vesting has occurred. If the grantee’s employment is terminated for any reason (other than following a change in control of the Company or a termination of an officer other than for cause), then any unvested RSUs under the award will automatically terminate and be forfeited. If an officer grantee’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by the grantee for good reason, then, provided that the RSUs have not been previously forfeited, the remaining unvested portion of the RSUs will immediately vest as of the officer grantee’s termination date. In the event of a change in control, the Company’s obligations regarding outstanding RSUs shall, on such terms as may be approved by the Committee prior to such event, immediately vest, be assumed by the surviving or continuing company or cancelled in exchange for property (including cash).

On June 15, 2016, the Company issued 150,000 RSUs to its Chief Executive Officer, Danny Schoening, and 50,000 RSUs to its Chief Financial Officer, Karen Hawkins. The RSUs issued to Mr. Schoening and Ms. Hawkins vest as follows: 34% on January 1, 2017, 33% on January 1, 2018 and 33% on January 1, 2019. The total market value of the restricted stock units based on the shares price of $1.85 as of June 15, 2016 is $372 thousand. The cost of the shares is amortized on a straight line basis across the vesting periods.

As of October 2, 2016, none of the restricted stock units had vested.

Consulting and Vendor Equity Issues

On April 29, 2016, Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. issued 40,000 common “restricted” shares at a market price of $2.35 per share ($94,000) in support of the IRTH Communications agreement (See note 6). The cost of the shares is amortized on a straight line basis through April 2017. There were no other equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors during the twelve months ended October 2, 2016.

Stock Based Compensation Expense

Equity compensation is amortized based on a straight line basis across the vesting or service period as applicable. The recorded compensation costs for options and shares granted and restricted stock units awarded as well as the unrecognized compensation costs are summarized in the table below:

Notes:

Common stock

On August 31, 2015, the Optex Systems Holdings board of directors approved a reverse stock split of our common stock, in a ratio to be determined by the board of directors, of not less than 1-for-400 nor more than 1-for-1000. On October 6, 2015, 20 calendar days had passed since the mailing to our shareholders of the Definitive Schedule 14C filed on September 11, 2015 regarding the approval by the board of the reverse stock split. On October 7, 2015, we effected a 1-for-1000 reverse split of our common stock. Pursuant to the reverse split, all shareholders of less than 100,000 pre-split common shares, were issued a round lot quantity of 100 common shares post-split. The total share round up quantity related to the reverse split resulted in an additional issue of 139,953 common shares post-split. All share and related option information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the decrease in shares resulting from this action. Additional funds were reclassified from the common stock to additional paid in capital to reflect the change in total par value represented by the lower common shares after the reverse split. The par value of the common stock outstanding shall remain at $0.001 per share subsequent to the reverse split action.

As of September 28, 2014, Optex Systems Holdings had 170,914 common shares outstanding. Pursuant to an October 7, 2015 reverse split, there was an additional 139,953 shares issued to preserve round lots of 100 shares for all lot holders holding less than 100,000 pre-split, or 100 post-split shares common shares. An adjustment to common stock par value and additional paid in capital was recorded to reflect the change in values as a result of the reverse split. The outstanding common shares as of September 28, 2014, have been retrospectively stated as 310,867 shares, reflective of the additional roundup quantity, post split.

During the twelve months ending September 27, 2015, Optex Systems Holdings issued 4,000 common shares due to conversions of Series B preferred stock. As of September 27, 2015, Optex Systems had 314,867 common shares outstanding.

On August 26, 2016, 2,291,900 Class A units consisting of common stock and warrants and 400 Class B units consisting of shares of Series C convertible stock and warrants were issued pursuant to a public offering. The offering is comprised of Class A Units, priced at a public offering price of $1.20 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one five-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock with an exercise price of $1.50 per share (each, a "warrant"), and Class B Units, priced at a public offering price of $5,000 per unit, with each unit comprised of one share of preferred stock with a conversion price of $1.20 which is convertible into 4,167 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 4,167 shares of common stock. The net proceeds from the offering were $4,245 thousand (Gross proceeds of $4,750 thousand less underwriter expenses of $505 thousand). Deferred public offering costs incurred by Optex in connection with the offering was $252 thousand.

During the twelve months ending October 2, 2016, Optex Systems Holdings issued 5,619,587 common shares due to conversions of Series A, Series B and Series C preferred stock, 2,291,900 shares were issued in connection with the public offering, 247 common shares were issued to correct Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTC) rounding errors occurring from the October 7, 2015 reverse split and 40,000 common shares were issued to a vendor (See note 12). As of October 2, 2016, the outstanding common shares are 8,266,601. The issued and outstanding shares above have been retroactively adjusted to include 1,354,167 common shares issued on October 18, 2016 pursuant to a ratchet triggered on previously converted Series A preferred shares.

There were no other issuances of common or preferred stock during the twelve months ended October 2, 2016.

Series A preferred stock

Optex Systems Holdings has filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware authorizing a series of preferred stock, under its articles of incorporation, known as “Series A preferred stock”. The Certificate of Designation currently sets forth the following terms for the Series A preferred stock: (i) number of authorized shares: 1,027; (ii) per share stated value: $6,860; (iii) liquidation preference per share: stated value; (iv) conversion price: $150.00 per share, ($0.15 per share, pre split) as adjusted from time to time; and (v) voting rights: votes along with the common stock on an as converted basis with one vote per share (vi) par value $0.001 per share. The conversion price was subsequently reset to $10.00 per share as discussed below.

The Series A preferred stock entitles the holders to receive cumulative dividends at the rate of 6% per annum, payable in cash at the discretion of Board of Directors. Each share of preferred stock is immediately convertible into common shares at the option of the holder which entitles the holder to receive the equivalent number of common shares equal to the stated value of the preferred shares divided by the conversion price, which was initially set at $150.00 per share. The dividends were subsequently waived and the price per share was reset to $10.00 on February 21, 2012 as discussed below. On November 17, 2014 an exercise price per share ratchet was triggered by the issuance of convertible notes with a lower conversion price and the exercise price was reset to a pre split value of $0.0025, or $2.50 post split per common share. Effective as of October 7, 2015, the conversion price has been reset to $2.50 per share pursuant to the 1000:1 reverse stock split on common shares and effective on August 22, 2016, the conversion price has been reset to $1.20 pursuant to a public offering of common shares at $1.20 per share.

Holders of preferred shares receive preferential rights in the event of liquidation. Additionally the preferred stock shareholders are entitled to vote together with the common stock on an “as-converted” basis.

As of April 1, 2012, the preferred shareholders agreed to waive the past dividends in arrears through June 29, 2014 of $884 thousand in exchange for an increase in the stated value to $6,860. On February 21, 2012, in connection with the purchase of the 5,000 shares of common stock of Optex Systems Holdings by Alpha Capital, the preferred shareholders executed an irrevocable waiver for any and all previously accrued and outstanding dividends and the right to receive any future dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. The per share conversion price of the Optex Systems Holdings’ Series A Preferred Stock was automatically reset to $10.00 per share in accordance with the reset provision as set forth in paragraph 4(d)(ii) of the Series Designation for the Optex Systems Holdings’ Series A Preferred Stock. The total amount of dividends waived as a result of the February 21, 2012 waiver is $213 thousand. As of October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015 as a result of the executed waiver dated February 21, 2012, there were no dividends in arrears on preferred shares and no future dividends will accrue on the preferred shares.

On October 7, 2015, we effected a 1-for-1000 reverse split of our common stock. Based on the price reset to $2.50 per common share, there were 1,001.5 shares of preferred stock with a beneficial conversion feature, “in the money”, which were subject to conversion at the discretion of the holder. In the twelve months ending September 27, 2105, Optex Systems Holdings recognized a $5.2 million adjustment to retained earnings for dividends for the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature on the convertible preferred shares. During the twelve months ending October 2, 2016, Optex System Holdings recognized an additional $0.8 million adjustment to retained earnings for dividends due to a beneficial conversion feature on 926 Series A preferred shares, whereas the conversion price reset from $2.50 per common share to $1.20 per common share as a result of the public offering price on August 26, 2016.

During the twelve months ending September 27, 2015 there were no conversions and no new issues of Series A preferred shares. Optex Systems Holdings had 1,001 of preferred shares outstanding as of September 27, 2015.

During the twelve months ending October 2, 2016 there were conversions of 935 preferred Series A shares, or $6,415 thousand, into 5,318,896 common shares, and cash redemptions for $455 thousand of 66 Series A preferred shares. The 5,318,896 converted common shares above have been retroactively adjusted to include 1,354,167 common shares subsequently issued on October 18, 2016 pursuant to a ratchet triggered on conversions of 456 of Series A preferred shares which had occurred on March 27, 2016.

As of October 2, 2016 there were zero preferred Series A shares outstanding.

Series B Preferred Stock

On March 26, 2015, Optex Systems Holdings filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware authorizing a series of preferred stock, under its articles of incorporation, known as “Series B preferred stock”. The Certificate of Designation currently sets forth the following terms for the Series B preferred stock: (i) number of authorized shares: 1,010; (ii) per share stated value: $1,629 (iii) liquidation preference per share, other than Series A preferred stock: stated value; (iv) conversion price: $0.0025 per share, pre split, as adjusted from time to time; (v) voting rights: votes along with the common stock on an as converted basis with one vote per share; and (vi) par value of $0.001 per share. Effective as of October 7, 2015, the conversion price has been reset to $2.50 per share pursuant to the 1000:1 reverse stock split on common shares.

On June 28, 2015, the holders of the Company’s $1,560,000 principal amount of convertible promissory notes, issued on or about November 17, 2014, converted the entire principal amount thereof and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, into 1,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock.

Each share of preferred stock is immediately convertible into common shares at the option of the holder which entitles the holder to receive the equivalent number of common shares equal to the stated value of the preferred shares divided by the conversion price, which is initially set at $0.0025 per share and was reset to $2.50 per share pursuant to the October 7, 2015 1000:1 reverse stock split. Effective on August 22, 2016, the conversion price has been reset to $1.20 pursuant to a public offering of common shares at $1.20 per share.

At the time of issuance, the market value of the common stock was $10.00 ($0.01 pre split). As the conversion rate of $2.50 ($0.0025 pre split) was below the market price, the issued preferred series B stock contained a beneficial conversion feature. As the series B preferred stock is immediately convertible with no stated maturity date, Optex Systems Holdings recognized a retained earnings and additional paid in capital adjustment for the intrinsic value, “in the money portion”, of the conversion options at inception. For the twelve months ending September 27, 2015 Optex Systems Holdings recognized a retained earnings dividends and additional paid in capital adjustment of $1.2 million, which represented the intrinsic value of the options at the commitment date. During the twelve months ending October 2, 2016 there were no dividends booked to retained earnings related to the beneficial conversion feature on Series B preferred shares as the conversion price remained at or above the market price.

During the twelve months ending September 27, 2015, 6 shares of the Series B preferred stock had been converted to common stock. As of September 27, 2015, there were 994 shares of Series B preferred shares outstanding.

During the twelve months ending October 2, 2016 there were conversions of 198 preferred Series B shares, or $324 thousand, into 134,024 common shares, and cash redemptions of 796 Series B preferred shares for $1,296 thousand. As of October 2, 2016 there were zero preferred Series B shares outstanding.

Series C Preferred Stock

Our board of directors designated 400 shares of our preferred stock as Series C convertible preferred stock (“Series C preferred stock”). The preferences and rights of the Series C preferred stock are set forth in a Certificate of Designation (the “Series C Certificate of Designation”).

Pursuant to a transfer agency agreement between us and Equity Stock Transfer, as transfer agent, the Series C preferred stock will be issued in book-entry form and shall initially be represented only by one or more global certificates deposited with The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co., a nominee of DTC, or as otherwise directed by DTC.

In the event of a liquidation, the holders of Series C preferred stock are entitled to participate on an as-converted-to-Common Stock basis with holders of the Common Stock in any distribution of assets of the Company to the holders of the Common Stock. The Series C Certificate of Designation provides, among other things, that we shall not pay any dividends on shares of Common Stock (other than dividends in the form of Common Stock) unless and until such time as we pay dividends on each Series C preferred share on an as-converted basis. Other than as set forth in the previous sentence, the Series C Certificate of Designation provides that no other dividends shall be paid on Series C preferred stock.

With certain exceptions, as described in the Series C Certificate of Designation, the Series C preferred stock have no voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Series C preferred stock remain outstanding, the Series C Certificate of Designation provides that we shall not, without the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the then-outstanding Series C preferred stock, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series C preferred stock or alter or amend the Series C Certificate of Designation, (b) increase the number of authorized shares of Series C preferred stock or (c) amend our certificate of incorporation in any manner that adversely affects the rights of holders of Series C preferred stock.

Each Series C preferred share is convertible at any time at the holder’s option into a number of shares of common stock equal to $5,000 divided by the Series C Conversion Price. The “Series C Conversion Price” is initially $1.20 and is subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, distributions, subdivisions and combinations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Series C Certificate of Designation further provides that we shall not effect any conversion of Series C preferred stock, with certain exceptions, to the extent that, after giving effect to an attempted conversion, the holder of Series C preferred stock (together with such holder’s affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of 4.99% of the shares of our Common Stock then outstanding after giving effect to such exercise (the “preferred stock Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, however, that upon notice to the Company, the holder may increase or decrease the preferred stock Beneficial Ownership Limitation, provided that in no event shall the preferred stock Beneficial Ownership Limitation exceed 9.99% and any increase in the preferred stock Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until 61 days following notice of such increase from the holder to us.

We do not intend to apply for listing of the Series C preferred stock on any securities exchange or other trading system.

During the twelve months ending October 2, 2016, Optex System Holdings recognized a $0.4 million adjustment to retained earnings for dividends due to a beneficial conversion feature on 400 Series C preferred shares, whereas the effective accounting conversion price at inception, after allocation of warrant proceeds was $0.27 and was “in the money” as it was significantly below the then current market price of $0.94 per common share as of the public offering on August 26, 2016.

During the twelve months ending October 2, 2016 there were 400 preferred Series C shares issued, at a total stated value of $2 million, pursuant to the public offering on August 26, 2016, and conversions of 40 preferred Series C shares, or $200 thousand, into 166,667 common shares. As of October 2, 2016 there were 360 preferred Series C shares outstanding.

Warrants

On August 26, 2016, Optex Systems Holdings Inc. issued 4,125,200 warrants to new shareholders and the underwriter, in connection with a public share offering. The warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.50 per share at any time on or after August 26, 2016 (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to the close of business on August 26, 2021 (the “Termination Date”).

Pursuant to a warrant agreement between Optex Systems Inc. and Equity Stock Transfer, LLC, as warrant agent, the warrants will be issued in book-entry form and shall initially be represented only by one or more global warrants deposited with the warrant agent, as custodian on behalf of The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co., a nominee of DTC, or as otherwise directed by DTC.

The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in the event of a stock splits, stock dividend, extraordinary dividend on or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. For one year following the issuance date of the warrants, the exercise price of the warrants will also be adjusted for issuances of common stock at a price below their exercise price, on the date of issuance of any option to purchase, or sell or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any common stock or common stock equivalents, at an effective price per share less than the exercise price then in effect. Under such adjustment, the exercise price of the warrants shall be reduced to that lower issuance price per share. Under the terms of the Warrants, there can only be one such price reset during the term of the warrant.

Under the terms of the warrant agreement, Optex Systems Holdings Inc. has agreed to use their best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement and current prospectus relating to common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants until the expiration of the warrants. During any period Optex fails to have maintained an effective registration statement covering the shares underlying the warrants, the warrant holder may exercise the warrants on a cashless basis. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of common stock and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive shares of common stock, except as set forth in the warrants. After the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

Subject to limited exceptions, a holder of warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its warrants if the holder (together with such holder’s affiliates, and any persons acting as a group together with such holder or any of such holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own a number of shares of common stock in excess of 4.99% of the shares of our common stock then outstanding after giving effect to such exercise (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, however, that, upon notice to the Company, the holder may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, provided that in no event shall the Beneficial Ownership Limitation exceed 9.99% and any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until 61 days following notice of such increase from the holder to us.

No fractional shares of common stock will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, Optex Systems Holdings Inc. will, upon exercise, round up to the nearest whole number of shares of common stock to be issued to the warrant holder. If multiple warrants are exercised by the holder at the same time, Optex Systems Holdings Inc. will aggregate the number of whole shares issuable upon exercise of all the warrants. There is no established trading market for the warrants. The warrants have been approved for quotation on the OTCQB.

In the event of a fundamental transaction (as defined in warrant), then the Company or any successor entity will pay at the holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with or within 30 days after the consummation of the fundamental transaction, an amount of cash equal to the value of the remaining unexercised portion of the warrants on the date of consummation of the fundamental transaction as determined in accordance with the Black Scholes option pricing model.

The Company determined that these warrants are free standing financial instruments that are legally detachable and separately exercisable from the common stock included in the public share offering. Management also determined that the warrants are puttable for cash upon a fundamental transaction at the option of the holder and as such require classification as a liability pursuant to ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. In accordance with the accounting guidance, the outstanding warrants are recognized as a warrant liability on the balance sheet. See Note 16 “Warrant Liabilities”.

During the twelve months ending October 2, 2016, zero warrants had been exercised. As of October 2, 2016 the outstanding warrants were 4,125,200.
