THE MATTERS DISCUSSED IN THIS QUARTERLY REPORT ON FORM 10-Q CONTAIN CERTAIN
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. FOR THIS PURPOSE, ANY STATEMENTS CONTAINED IN THIS
REPORT THAT ARE NOT STATEMENTS OF HISTORICAL FACT MAY BE DEEMED TO BE
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WORDS SUCH AS "MAY,"
"WILL," "EXPECT," BELIEVE," "ANTICIPATE," OR "CONTINUE," THE NEGATIVE OR OTHER
VARIATION THEREOF, OR COMPARABLE TERMINOLOGY, ARE INTENDED TO IDENTIFY
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THESE STATEMENTS BY THEIR NATURE INVOLVE SUBSTANTIAL
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, AND ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY DEPENDING UPON
A VARIETY OF FACTORS, INCLUDING CONTINUED MARKET DEMAND FOR THE TYPES OF
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES PRODUCED AND SOLD BY THE COMPANY.
COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2000 TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY
31, 1999.
REVENUES - Revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2000 totaled $6.7 million
as compared to $6.4 million for the three months ended May 31, 1999, an increase
of $0.3 million or 3.6%.
Prior to fiscal 2000, the Company was constrained in revenue growth due to
limited manufacturing capacity. This constraint was alleviated by the Company's
$10.6 million engineering and manufacturing capital expansion, which was
completed in August 1999. The Company has since been marketing this additional
capacity to its customers. Due to the fact that the contracts the Company
receives are long-term in nature, the marketing efforts have not yet
9.
<PAGE> 10
generated additional revenues. Management continues to believe additional growth
opportunities exist and the Company will continue to be successful in securing
additional volume utilizing the increased manufacturing capacity. Additionally,
certain labor and interest costs incurred in fiscal 1999 were required to be
capitalized as part of the capital expansion, which in the first and second
quarters and throughout the remainder of fiscal 2000 will negatively impact the
comparative results of operations. The Company continues to expect the increase
in revenue and gross profit to more than offset the depreciation and interest
expense resulting from the engineering and manufacturing capital expansion.
COST OF SALES - Cost of sales were $5.4 million or 80.4% of sales for the three
months ended May 31, 2000 as compared to $4.5 million or 69.9% of sales for the
three months ended May 31, 1999.
The gross margin decrease was largely due to increases in the Company's direct
costs expense of $624,000 or 8.0%, as a percent of sales, and $227,000 or 2.6%,
as a percent of sales, in manufacturing overhead expense.
The increase in direct cost expense was primarily due to an increase of $619,000
in labor expense for the three months ended May 31, 2000 over the same period
last year. The increase in labor was due to the Company incurring more labor
hours during the quarter ended May 31, 2000 over the same period last year,
necessary to process the Company's contract backlog. Additionally, during the
quarter ended May 31, 1999 the Company had direct labor personnel involved in
completing the manufacturing expansion and accordingly such labor was
capitalized as a part of the expansion. During the quarter ended May 31, 2000,
the amount of such capitalized labor was lower in comparison to the previous
comparable quarter and resulted in the labor expense increase this quarter.
Manufacturing overhead expense increased from $1,512,000 or 23.5% of sales for
the three months ended May 31, 1999 to $1,739,000 or 26.1% of sales for the
three months ended May 31, 2000. This change was due to increases in
depreciation expense, perishable tooling costs, payroll taxes, and medical
insurance premiums.
SELLING & ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES - Selling and administrative expenses
decreased from approximately $550,000 or 8.5% of sales for the three months
ended May 31, 1999 to approximately $458,000 or 6.8% of sales for the three
months ended May 31, 2000. This change was due to decreases in legal and
professional expenses, State of Michigan Single Business Tax obligations, and
liability insurance premium expenses.
INTEREST EXPENSE - Interest expense for the three months ended May 31, 2000 was
approximately $249,000 as compared to approximately $35,000 for the same period
last year. As a percentage of sales, interest expense increased from 0.5% in the
quarter ended May 31, 1999 as compared to 3.7% for the quarter ended May 31,
2000.
The increase in interest expense was a result of the Company capitalizing
$190,000 of interest on its construction in process during the quarter ended May
31, 1999.
COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2000 TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY
31, 1999
10.
<PAGE> 11
REVENUES - Revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2000 totaled $17.7 million
as compared to $17.1 million for the nine months ended May 31, 1999, an increase
of $0.6 million or 3.7%.
COST OF SALES - Cost of sales were $15.2 million or 85.7% of sales for the nine
months ended May 31, 2000 as compared to $12.2 million or 71.2% of sales for the
nine months ended May 31, 1999.
The gross margin decrease was largely due to increases in the Company's direct
costs expense of $2,353,000 or 36.4%, as a percent of sales, and $598,000 or
13.3%, as a percent of sales, in manufacturing overhead expense offset by the
minor increase in revenue growth during the nine months ended May 31, 2000.
The increase in direct cost expense was primarily due to an increase of
$1,795,000 in labor expense for the nine months ended May 31, 2000 over the same
period last year. The increase in labor was due to the Company incurring more
labor hours during the nine months ended May 31, 2000 over the same period last
year. Additionally, during the nine months ended May 31, 1999 the Company had
direct labor personnel involved in completing the manufacturing expansion and
accordingly, such labor was capitalized as a part of the expansion. During the
nine months ended May 31, 2000, the amount of such capitalized labor was lower
in comparison to the previous comparable quarters and resulted in the labor
expense increase this year.
Direct materials and outside services increased by $557,000 for the nine months
ended May 31, 2000 over the same period last year. These increases include
outside machining expense, an increase of $750,000, resulting from the Company's
product mix during the nine months ended May 31, 2000. This product mix created
machining requirements beyond the Company's capacity and resulted in outsourcing
some machining requirements. Services purchased increased by $870,000 for the
nine months ended May 31, 2000 over the same period last year. These increases
were largely due to the increased shipping requirements to and from certain
customers (an increase of approximately $355,000) and outside laser services
required as a result of the increased prototype dies produced during the nine
months of 2000 (an increase of approximately $328,000). Decreases in direct
materials of $727,000 for the nine months ended May 31, 2000 as compared to the
same period last year was a result of the Company purchasing less castings,
steel, hydraulics etc.
Manufacturing overhead expense increased from $4,483,000 or 26.3% of sales for
the nine months ended May 31, 1999 to $5,079,000 or 28.7% of sales for the nine
months ended May 31, 2000. The largest increase was $246,000 in depreciation
expense, as a result of the Company's recent capital expansion program. Other
increases included additional perishable tooling expense, machinery repairs and
maintenance expenses, medical insurance premiums expenses and payroll tax
expenses.
SELLING & ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES - Selling and administrative expenses
increased from approximately $1,536,508 or 9.0% of sales for the nine months
ended May 31, 1999 to approximately $1,691,000 or 9.5% of sales for the nine
months ended May 31, 2000. This increase was due to additional State of Michigan
Single Business Tax obligations, salaries and wages expenses and legal and
professional expenses.
INTEREST EXPENSE - Interest expense for the nine months ended May 31, 2000 was
approximately $657,000 as compared to approximately $267,000 for the same period
last year. As a percentage of sales, interest expense increased from 1.6% for
the nine months ended May 31, 1999 as compared to 3.7% for the nine months ended
May 31, 2000.

The increase in interest expense was a result of the Company capitalizing
$464,000 of interest on its construction in process during the nine months ended
May 31, 1999.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The effective federal income tax rate was 39% for the nine months ended May 31,
2000 as compared to 35% for the same period last year. As of August 31, 1999,
the Company had approximately $187,000 of alternative minimum tax credits that
do not expire.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the nine months ended May 31, 2000, the Company's cash provided by
operating activities was $286,482. The Company invested in additional machinery
and equipment of $1,362,487 and increased its long-term debt obligations by
$951,097. The Company financed these activities by borrowing $2,439,070 on its
revolving bank working capital credit line. The Company believes that the unused
portion of the revolving bank working capital credit line and the funds
generated from operations will be sufficient to cover anticipated cash needs
through fiscal 2000. However, depending on the level of future sales, an
expanded credit line may be necessary to finance increases in trade accounts
receivable and contracts in process. The Company believes it will be able to
obtain such expanded credit line, if required, on generally the same terms as
the existing credit line.
