MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Three months ended March 31, 1997 compared to three months ended March 31, 1996:
Consolidated net sales increased $3,943,000 or 7.2% to $58,444,000 in 1997, as
compared to $54,501,000 in 1996. In the Defense segment, sales increased
$2,342,000 or 5.2%. Generally this resulted from a higher volume of contract
related work. In the Company's Energy segment, increased prices and volume
accounted for its $1,363,000 or 17.8% rise in sales.
Gross margin decreased to 22.5% in the first quarter of 1997 from 26.6% in the
first quarter of 1996 primarily due to the Defense segment and partially offset
by increases in other segments. A fluctuation in the mix of contracts from
"fixed price production" to "cost plus development" in the Defense segment
resulted in a 6.9% decrease in the gross margin percentage to 20.2% in the first
quarter of 1997 as compared to 27.1% in the like period in 1996. However, the
current contract mix includes lower risk programs which offer opportunities for
higher margin long-term sole source production awards. The gross margin
percentage in the Energy segment increased 9.8% to 37.0% for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 from 27.2% in 1996. This growth was generally attributable
to an improved pricing structure as well as continued operating efficiencies
realized at the Company's foundry operation. Included in the Defense segment's
costs in 1996 is a pretax charge of $900,000 related to the reduction of the
estimated net realizable value of certain non- contract inventories. At December
31, 1996, the Company estimated that the net realizable value of these
inventories was $6,800,000. The Company has agreed to sell approximately 80% of
these inventories at an amount in excess of its estimated net realizable value
to a customer and anticipates that it will enter into a contract in the near
term.
Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1997
declined $1,852,000 or 15.9% to $9,811,000 from $11,663,000 during the three
months ended March 31, 1996. This savings primarily occurred in the Defense
segment and was substantially due to facilities consolidation, including
headcount reductions, and lower contract procurement costs related to the timing
of new program activity. As a percentage of sales, selling and administrative
expenses decreased to 16.8% for the first quarter of 1997, as compared to 21.4%
for the same period in 1996.
The increase in other expense represented primarily proposal costs during the
first quarter of 1997 incurred by Electric Transit, Inc. (ETI), a joint venture
between the Company's subsidiary AAI Corporation and the Czech Republic firm,
SKODA, associated with an opportunity to produce 250 electric trolley coaches
for the City and County of San Francisco. In April 1997, ETI was notified that
San Francisco's Public Transportation Department recommended ETI for this award.
Interest income increased due to increased investments.
Net income increased by 23.2% to $1,763,000 or $.14 per share in 1997, as
compared to net income of $1,431,000 or $.12 per share in 1996. The improvement
was primarily attributable to lower selling and administrative expenses,
partially offset by increased cost of sales.

FASB statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Shares," is effective in the fourth
quarter of 1997. The impact of this FASB Statement on the calculation of
earnings per share is not expected to be material.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents decreased $6,483,000 from December 31, 1996. This
decrease included the payment of $13,750,000 in complete settlement of the
Company's long-term loan. Operating activities provided the partially offsetting
cash increase. The Company currently has no significant fixed commitment for
capital expenditures or for investments. The Company expects that available cash
and existing lines of credit will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements
for the remainder of the calendar year. Its cash requirements consists primarily
of its obligations to fund operations, and make interest and principal payments,
if necessary. The Company's credit agreement with a bank has been extended to
May 18, 1997. There were no borrowings under this agreement at March 31, 1997.
The Company has received a commitment letter from the bank for a replacement
credit agreement which is in the process of negotiation.
