$IEHC IEH Corp Provides Guidance Related to Changes in OTC Market and its Common Stock
Press Release | 09/24/2021
BROOKLYN, NY / ACCESSWIRE / September 24, 2021 / IEH Corporation (OTC PINK:IEHC). In response to shareholder inquiries, IEH Corporation confirmed today that on September 28 2021 trading in its stock will be in accordance with the OTC Pink Sheet No Information tier, as a result of the implementation of the SEC's rules changes to the OTC Market implemented through Amended Rule 15c2-11.
The effect of the change in the Rule will be that broker dealer firms will not be able to provide stock quotes for IEH's common stock. Transactions will be limited to the "Expert" market. Persons who hold IEH common stock or wish to purchase IEH common stock will have to contact their brokers directly in order to buy or sell shares.
Among other requirements, the Amended Rule requires listed companies to be current in their SEC filings or provide alternative information, including financial information and financial statements to the OTC. IEH Corporation has been delinquent in its SEC filings, and is unable at this time to provide the required level of information to the OTC but is working diligently to cure this delinquency.
"We have been aware of this Amended Rule, and had hoped to be caught up on our filings in time to enable an eventual reinstatement to our prior trading platforms on the OTC. Despite not making the deadline, we want our shareholders to know that we are extremely focused on getting current with our filings with the SEC" said David Offerman, IEH Corp President and CEO. "As previously noted, our inability to make our SEC filings has been driven by a reconciling of two disparate accounting systems, our legacy system and our new one. At the heart of the issue is how the two disparate systems itemize inventory categories; namely what is considered raw material, work-in-progress (WIP) and finished goods. It is intense, demanding work, requiring a blending of our old ERP system and the new one, as well as discriminating periodic inventory costing from perpetual inventory costing. As we have previously disclosed, we have engaged outside resources and focused internal resources to address these subjects appropriately so that we can keep moving forward. While it has taken much longer to resolve than previously anticipated, we are much closer to completion, and anticipate resolution before the end of the 2021 calendar year.
Despite these issues, I am happy to confirm previously provided revenue guidance of between 5% to 10% year over year which is fiscal 2021 over fiscal 2020. Our $2.1M PPP loan was fully forgiven, our balance sheet remains strong, and cash on hand is at an all-time high. Although revenues in the current Fiscal '22 will be lower due to the severe retraction in the commercial aviation sector due to COVID, recent upticks in air travel herald an earlier than expected recovery in that industry."

CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this report, and in related comments by the Company's management, include "forward-looking statements." Forward-looking statements include information concerning the Company's liquidity and its possible or assumed future results of operations, including descriptions of its business strategies. These statements often include words such as "believe," "expect," "project," "potential," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "estimate," "seek," "will," "may," "would," "should," "could," "forecasts" or similar expressions. These statements are based on certain assumptions that the Company has made on its current expectations and projections about future events and trends in light of its experience in the industry as well as its perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors it believes are appropriate in these circumstances. The Company believes these judgments are reasonable, but you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results, and you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of important factors, both positive and negative, that may be revised or supplemented in subsequent reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, as they will depend on many factors about which we are unsure, including many factors beyond our control. Among other items, such factors could include: any claims, investigations or proceedings arising as a result of the delinquency we have experienced in filing recent periodic reports under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, our ability to remediate the material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting or our need to amend previously issued financial results for our fiscal quarters ended September 27, 2019 and December 31, 2019; changes in accounting principles, or their application or interpretation, and our ability to make accurate estimates and the assumptions underlying the estimates, which could have an effect on earnings; the continued impact of the coronavirus ("COVID-19") virus, including the measures to reduce its spread, and its effects on the economy and the business sectors for which we provide products and services; pricing pressures on our product caused by competition; the risk that our products will not gain market acceptance; increased levels of competition; changes in political, economic or regulatory conditions generally and in the markets in which we operate; our ability to protect intellectual property; our relationships with key customers; adverse conditions in the industries in which our customers operate; our ability to quickly and effectively respond to new technological developments; and our ability to attract and retain key employees. Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2020. All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. Except as may be required by applicable law, we do not undertake or intend to update or revise our forward-looking statements, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this report as a result of new information or future events or developments. Thus, you should not assume that our silence over time means that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. You should carefully review and consider the various disclosures we make in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that attempt to advise interested parties of the risks, uncertainties and other factors that may affect our business.

$IEHC IEH Corporation Provides Update on Completion of Financial Statements and SEC Filings
Press Release | 06/24/2021
BROOKLYN, NY / ACCESSWIRE / June 24, 2021 / IEH Corporation (OTC PINK:IEHC). IEH Corporation announced today that it does not expect to file its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31 2021 on a timely basis, as previously anticipated. The report is due under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended on June 29, 2021. Further, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2020, September 31, 2020 and December 31, 2020 have not yet been completed.
Dave Offerman, President and CEO of IEH Corporation commented, "We are totally focused on getting current with our SEC filings, and have made great progress towards resolving the related inventory and ERP accounting system issues that have caused the delay in the filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of our Exchange Act reports over the last year. Once these issues are resolved, we expect to complete the missing filings and once again be current in our reporting obligations. No one wants this fixed more than us, but we want to make sure we get it right.
Mr. Offerman continued, "Although we did expect to have this resolved to file our 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2021 on time, the sheer volume of data that we have to sort and filter in order to reconcile our legacy system with our new system has proven quite challenging. At the heart of the issue is how the two disparate systems itemize inventory categories; namely what is considered raw material, work-in-progress (WIP) and finished goods. It is intense, demanding work, requiring a blending of our old ERP system and the new one, as well as discriminating periodic inventory costing from perpetual inventory costing. We have engaged outside resources and focused internal resources to address these subjects appropriately so that we can keep moving forward.
Despite these issues, I am happy to confirm our revenue guidance of between 5% to 10% year over year which is fiscal 2021 over fiscal 2020. We have received notification that our $2.1M PPP loan has been fully forgiven, our balance sheet remains strong, and cash is at an all-time high. Although revenues in the current Fiscal '22 are expected to be lower due to the severe retraction in the commercial aviation sector due to COVID, recent upticks in air travel herald an earlier than expected recovery in that industry. It has been one of the more challenging periods in our 80-year history, and we appreciate the support and continued patience of our investors."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1- INTERIM RESULTS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of June 25, 2010 and June 26, 2009 and for the three months then ended have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 25, 2010 and June 26, 2009 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months then ended. The financial data and other information disclosed in these notes to the interim financial statements related to these periods are unaudited. The results for the three months ended June 25, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarter or the entire fiscal year. The balance sheet at March 26, 2010 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company believes, however, that the disclosures in this report are adequate to make the information presented not misleading in any material respect. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto of IEH Corporation for the fiscal year ended March 26, 2010 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC and the attached Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Cost of products sold amounted to $5,848,266. for the nine months ended December 25, 2009, or 65.33% of operating revenues. This reflected a $457,673 or 8.49% increase in the cost of products sold from $5,390,593 or 67.96% of operating revenues for the nine months ended December 26, 2008.

This reflects a decrease of $4,126 from the comparable nine month period ended December 26, 2008 of $135,040 or 1.70% of operating revenues. The reduction in depreciation is the result of assets being written off during the nine months ended December 25, 2009.

Forward Looking Statements
This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act") and
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act"). Statements contained in this report which are not statements of historical facts may be considered forward-looking information with respect to plans, projections, or future performance of the Company as defined under the Private Securities litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. The words "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "expect", "objective", and "think" or similar expressions used herein are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are based on the Company's current views and assumptions and involve risks and uncertainties that include, among other things, the effects of the Company's business, actions of competitors, changes in laws and regulations, including accounting standards, employee relations, customer demand, prices of purchased raw material and parts, domestic economic conditions, including housing starts and changes in consumer disposable income, and foreign economic conditions, including currency rate fluctuations. Some or all of the facts are beyond the Company's control.
Except as may be required by applicable law, we do not undertake or intend to update or revise our forward-looking statements, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this report as a result of new information or future events or developments. Thus, you should not assume that our silence over time means that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. You should carefully review and consider the various disclosures we make in this report and our other reports filed with the SEC that attempt to advise interested parties of the risks, uncertainties and other factors that m ay affect our business. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related footnotes which provide additional information concerning the Company's financial activities and condition.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements, and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company believes the following are the critical accounting policies, which could have the most significant effect on the Company's reported results and require the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments by management.
o Impairment of Long-Lived Assets:
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected cash flows, undiscounted and without interest, is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. The Company makes estimates of its future cash flows related to assets subject to impairment review.
o Inventory Valuation:
Raw materials and supplies are valued at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or market. Finished goods and work in process are valued at the lower of actual cost, determined on a specific identification basis, or market. The Company estimates which materials may be obsolete and which products in work in process or finished goods may be sold at less than cost, and adjusts their inventory value accordingly. Future periods could include either income or expense items if estimates change and for differences between the estimated.........

Critical Accounting Policies (continued)
actual amount realized from the sale of inventory.
o Income Taxes:
The Company records a liability for potential tax assessments based on its estimate of the potential exposure. Due to the subjectivity and complex nature of the underlying issues, actual payments or assessments may differ from estimates. Income tax expense in future periods could be adjusted for the difference between actual payments and the Company's recorded liability based on its assessments and estimates.
o Revenue Recognition:
Revenues are recognized at the shipping date of the Company's products. The Company has historically adopted the shipping terms that title merchandise passes to the customer at the shipping point (FOB Shipping Point). At this juncture, title has passed, the Company has recognized the sale, inventory has been relieved, and the customer has been invoiced. The Company does not offer any discounts, credits or other sales incentives.
The Company's policy with respect to customer returns and allowances as well as product warranty is as follows:
The Company will accept a return of defective product within one year from shipment for repair or replacement at the Company's option. If the product is repairable, the Company at its own cost will repair and return it to the customer. If unrepairable, the Company will either offer an allowance against payment or will reimburse the customer for the total cost of the product.
Most of the Company's products are custom ordered by customers for a specific use. The Company provides engineering services as part of the relationship with its customers in developing the custom product. The Company is not obligated to provide such engineering service to its customers. The Company does not charge separately for these services.
o Research & Development:
The Company provides personalized engineering services to its customers by designing connectors for specific customer applications. The employment of electromechanical engineers is the anticipated cornerstone of the Company's future growth. The Company maintains a testing laboratory where its engineers experiment with new connector designs based on changes in technology and in an attempt to create innovative, more efficient connector designs.

The factor provides discounted funds to the Company based upon the Company's accounts receivables. These funds provide the primary source of working capital for operations.
In the past two fiscal years, management has been reviewing its collection practices and policies for outstanding receivables and has revised its collection procedures to a more aggressive collection policy. As a consequence of this new policy the Company's experience is that its customers have been remitting payments on a more consistent and timely basis. The Company reviews the collectability of all accounts receivable on a monthly basis. The reserve is less than 2% of average gross accounts receivable and is considered to be conservatively adequate.
The Company has the Multi-Employer Plan with the UAW. Contributions are made by the Company in accordance with a negotiated labor contract and are based on the number of covered employees employed per month. With the passage of the 1990 Act, the Company may become subject to liabilities in excess of contributions made under the collective bargaining agreement. Generally, these are contingent upon termination, withdrawal, or partial withdrawal from the Multi-Employer Plan. The Company has not taken any action to terminate, withdraw or partially withdraw from the Multi-Employer Plan, nor does it intend to do so in the future. Under the 1990 Act, liabilities would be based upon the Company's proportional share of the Multi-Employer Plan's unfunded vested benefits which is currently not available. The amount of accumulated benefits and net assets of such Plan also is not currently available to the Company. The total contributions charged to operations under the provisions of the Multi-Employer Plan were $55,692 and $45,281 for the six months ended September 25, 2009 and September 26, 2008, respectively.

Exercise prices of non-incentive stock options may be less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock. The aggregate fair market value of shares subject to options granted to its participants, which are designated as incentive stock options, and which become exercisable in any calendar year, shall not exceed $100,000. As of September 25, 2009, no options had been granted under the 2002 Plan.
