Product Warranties
The Company’s products carry a limited warranty ranging from one to seven years for the products within the CSG segment and one to five years for products within the IBW segment. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary depending upon the customer and the products sold. Factors that enter into the estimate of the Company’s warranty reserve include: the number of units shipped, anticipated rates of warranty claims, and cost per claim. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and adjusts the reserve as necessary. The current portions of the warranty reserve were $383,000 and $286,000 as of June 30, 2014, and March 31, 2014, respectively, and are presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as Accrued expenses. The non-current portions of the warranty reserve were $41,000 and $42,000 as of June 30, 2014, and March 31, 2014, respectively, and are presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in Other non-current liabilities.
