Note 4.                    Accounts Receivable – Project Revenue and Reimbursable Project Costs

FANR and ENEC Projects

The total accounts receivable from both the FANR and ENEC contracts was approximately $0.2 million and $0.5 million at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. These amounts due from FANR and ENEC represent approximately 78% of the accounts receivable reported at March 31, 2015 and 92% all of the accounts receivable at December 31, 2014. Approximately 34% and 86% of the total revenues reported for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, were from the ENEC and FANR contracts. Contracts with Lloyds Register constituted 58% of the total revenues reported for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Total unbilled accounts receivable of approximately $0.0 million and $0.1 million was included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and reported in accounts receivable at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, and is for work that was billed to our clients in April 2015 and January 2015, respectively. Foreign currency transaction exchange losses and translation gains and losses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, were not significant.

Travel costs and other reimbursable costs under these contracts are reported in the accompanying statements of operations as both revenue and cost of consulting services provided, and were not significant for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. The total travel and other reimbursable expenses that have not been reimbursed to us are included in total accounts receivable reported above from our consulting contracts and were not significant at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Under our agreements with ENEC and FANR, revenue will be recognized on a time and expense basis and fixed fee basis. We periodically discuss our consulting work with ENEC and FANR, who will review the work we perform, and our reimbursable travel expenses, and accept our monthly invoicing for services and reimbursable expenses. We expect the variation of revenue we earn from these contracts to continue.
