NOTE 2 – CONTRACT RECEIVABLES AND RETAINAGE

On January 14, 2011, we entered into an agreement with one of our customers regarding the collection of an $11.0 million retainage balance on a completed contract. As consideration to extend payment, we agreed to receive $12.5 million, payable in twenty equal monthly installments beginning on June 30, 2011. Since the payment period extends further than twelve months, we discounted the final contract price by $1.4 million, applying a discount rate of 9.5%, based on our credit risk analysis. We began recognizing the discount as interest income over the twenty month term beginning June 30, 2011, which is consistent with the first scheduled payment of the contract retainage under the original contract. As a result of this financing agreement, we reclassified the remaining scheduled payments, net of discount, from contract retainage to current and long-term contracts receivables.
