Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
Datron Systems Incorporated and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the
Company) reports operations in two business segments: Communication
Products and Services, and Antenna and Imaging Systems. The
Communication Products and Services business segment designs,
manufactures and distributes high frequency and very high frequency
radios and accessories for worldwide military and civilian purposes. The
Antenna and Imaging Systems business segment designs and manufactures
specialized satellite communication systems, subsystems and antennas that
are sold worldwide to commercial and governmental customers, including
the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). This segment also sells remote
sensing satellite earth stations, sales of which represented 29% and 26%
of this segment's sales in fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively. In fiscal
1996, this segment introduced the DBS-3000 TM, a mobile satellite
television reception system for recreational vehicles and long-haul
trucks. This system is the Company's first consumer product.
This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations contains certain forward-looking statements.
Actual results could differ materially. Reference is hereby made to the
statement of Investment Considerations contained in Part I, Item 1 of the
Company's Form 10-K, which is available from the Company upon request.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 was $29,000, or $0.01 per
share, compared with net income of $415,000, or $0.16 per share, in the
first quarter of fiscal 1996. Net sales in the first quarter of fiscal
1997 were $12,457,000, a 13% decrease from first quarter sales last
fiscal year of $14,356,000. The decrease in sales and net income was
primarily due to lower sales of radio products and remote sensing
systems, partially offset by sales of the new DBS-3000.
Operating results for each business segment were as follows:
<PAGE>6
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Communication Products and Services
Three Months Ended
June 30,
1996 1995
---------- ----------
<S> <C> <C>
Net sales $4,073,000 $5,078,000
Gross profit $1,362,000 $1,576,000
Operating income $ 555,000 $ 198,000
</TABLE>
Sales of Communication Products and Services decreased 20% in the first
quarter of fiscal 1997 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 1996.
The decrease in sales resulted from recent low order bookings of radio
products.
Gross profit percentage on sales of Communication Products and Services
was 33.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 compared with 31.0% in the
first quarter last fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to lower
overhead expenses in the recent quarter.
Operating income percentage from sales of Communication Products and
Services was 13.6% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 compared with 3.9%
in the first quarter last fiscal year. The increase resulted from higher
gross profits and from reductions in selling and administrative expenses.

Antenna and Imaging Systems

---------- ----------
<S> <C> <C>
Net sales $8,384,000 $9,278,000
Gross profit $2,094,000 $3,784,000
Operating income $ 4,000 $ 855,000
</TABLE>
Sales of Antenna and Imaging Systems products decreased 10% in the first
quarter of fiscal 1997 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 1996.
The decrease was primarily due to lower sales of remote sensing systems,
partially offset by sales of the new DBS-3000.
Gross profit percentage on sales of Antenna and Imaging Systems products
was 25.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 compared with 40.8% in the
first quarter last fiscal year. The decrease was primarily due to higher
manufacturing costs associated with a less favorable product mix and to
higher materials costs related to initial production of the DBS-3000.
Operating income percentage from sales of Antenna and Imaging Systems
products was 0.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 compared with 9.2%
in the first quarter last fiscal year. The decrease resulted from lower
gross profits, partially offset by lower selling and administrative
expenses.
<PAGE>7
Consolidated expenses were as follows:
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,731,000 in the first
quarter of fiscal 1997, a 26% decrease compared with first quarter of
fiscal 1996 expenses of $3,694,000. The decrease was due to lower
selling and administrative expenses at both business segments. Cost
reductions related to the Company's fourth quarter of fiscal 1996
consolidation and restructuring as well as spending reductions in the
first quarter at both segments were responsible for most of the decrease.
Research and development expenses were $558,000 in the first quarter of
fiscal 1997 compared with $995,000 in the first quarter last fiscal year.
The 44% decrease was due to significantly lower spending on development
programs for mobile direct broadcast satellite (DBS) television products,
some of which are now in production, and from the absence of spending on
programs to develop remote sensing services for the agricultural
community.
Order backlog at June 30 was as follows:
1996 1995
---------- ----------
Communication Products and Services $ 2,576,000 $ 5,877,000
Antenna and Imaging Systems 22,690,000 22,466,000
----------- -----------
Total $25,266,000 $28,343,000
The 56% decrease in Communication Products and Services backlog at June
30, 1996 compared with June 30, 1995 was due to continued low order
bookings. Although bookings in this business segment have been low
during the last six months and although there can be no assurances that
bookings will improve, recent customer inquiries suggest that order
bookings may improve in the second quarter. The 1% increase in Antenna
and Imaging Systems backlog at June 30, 1996 compared with June 30, 1995
resulted primarily from orders for DBS television products, partially
offset by lower orders for remote sensing systems.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
At June 30, 1996, working capital was $20,572,000 compared with
$18,042,000 at March 31, 1996, an increase of $2,530,000 or 14%. Major
changes affecting working capital during this period were the following:
accounts receivable decreased $934,000 primarily due to low sales during
the quarter; inventories increased $481,000 to meet production
requirements for new DBS television reception system products; accounts
payable and accrued expenses decreased $2,623,000; and customer advances
decreased $1,682,000. The Company's cash position at June 30, 1996 was
$449,000 compared with $1,393,000 at March 31, 1996, a decrease of 68%.
At June 30, 1996, the Company had borrowed $7,400,000 in term debt from
its bank to meet operating cash requirements. These borrowings
represented a 42% increase in term debt from the $5,200,000 of borrowings
at March 31, 1996.
Capital equipment expenditures were $111,000 during the first three
months of fiscal 1997 compared with $516,000 in the first three months
last fiscal year. The decrease was primarily due to lower purchases of
equipment for the Antenna and Imaging Systems business segment.
At June 30, 1996, the Company had a $19,500,000 committed revolving line
of credit with its bank, of which up to $12,000,000 may be used for the
issuance of letters of credit and up to $10,500,000 may be used for
direct working capital advances provided that total credit extended does
not exceed $19,500,000. The Company believes that its existing working
capital, anticipated future cash flows from operations and available
credit with its bank are sufficient to finance presently planned capital
and working capital requirements.
