NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization:
CEVA, Inc. (“CEVA” or the “Company”) was
incorporated in Delaware on November 22, 1999. The Company was
formed through the combination of Parthus Technologies plc
(“Parthus”) and the digital signal processor (DSP)
cores licensing business and operations of DSP Group, Inc. in
November 2002. The Company had no business or operations prior to
the combination.
CEVA licenses a family of signal processing IPs, including
programmable DSP cores and application-specific platforms for
vision, imaging, audio and voice, and communications technologies,
including wireless and wired modems, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Serial
ATA (SATA) and Serial Attached SCSI (SAS).
CEVA’s technologies are licensed to leading semiconductor and
original equipment manufacturer (OEM) companies in the form of
intellectual property (IP). These companies design, manufacture,
market and sell application-specific integrated circuits
(“ASICs”) and application-specific standard products
(“ASSPs”) based on CEVA’s technology to wireless,
consumer electronics and automotive companies for incorporation
into a wide variety of end products.
Basis of presentation:
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared according
to U.S Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S.
GAAP”).
Use of estimates :
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in
conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates,
judgments and assumptions. The Company’s management believes
that the estimates, judgments and assumptions used are reasonable
based upon information available at the time they are made. These
estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements,
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Financial statements in U.S. dollars :
A majority of the revenues of the Company and its subsidiaries is
generated in U.S. dollars (“dollars”). In addition, a
portion of the Company and its subsidiaries’ costs are
incurred in dollars. The Company’s management has determined
that the dollar is the primary currency of the economic environment
in which the Company and its subsidiaries principally operate.
Thus, the functional and reporting currency of the Company and its
subsidiaries is the dollar.
Accordingly, monetary accounts maintained in currencies other than
the dollar are remeasured into dollars in accordance with Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 830,
“Foreign Currency Matters.” All transaction gains and
losses from remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items are
reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as financial
income or expenses, as appropriate, which is included in
“financial income, net.” The foreign exchange losses
arose principally on the Euro and the NIS liabilities as a result
of the currency fluctuations of the Euro and the NIS against the
dollar.
Principles of consolidation :
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial
statements of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. All
significant inter-company balances and transactions have been
eliminated on consolidation.
Cash equivalents :
Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments that are
readily convertible to cash with original maturities of three
months or less from the date acquired.
Short-term bank deposits :
Short-term bank deposits are deposits with maturities of more than
three months but less than one year from the balance sheet date.
The deposits are presented at their cost, including accrued
interest. The deposits bear interest annually at an average rate of
1.88%, 1.58% and 1.51% during 2013, 2014 and 2015,
respectively
