MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
RESULTS OF OPERATION
Net income increased by 113% during the first nine months of 1995 to $612,777 or
$.32 per share. The substantial increase is due to both increased sales during
the period and decreased operating expenses. Sales for the third quarter and
first nine months of 1995 increased 27.9% and 9.8%, respectively, when compared
to the same periods of 1994. Third quarter sales of $1,733,628 represent the
highest quarterly sales level achieved in the company history. The third quarter
and nine month sales increases were provided almost entirely by the Drive
Control Systems ("DCS") segment of the Controls Division.
DCS has achieved continued sales growth of the MicroSpeed products throughout
1995. In addition, DCS completed the sale of a production line control system of
approximately $225,000 during the third quarter of 1995. Speed Monitoring
segment sales experienced an 11% increase in third quarter sales, but remained
relatively unchanged for the year. Microflame sales remained 10.6% ahead of last
year; however, sales were down 10.5% during the third quarter of 1995 as
compared to the same period of a year ago. The company's newly formed division,
AutoData Systems, is presently in the process of changing its marketing efforts
based on focus group studies performed earlier in the year. This has resulted in
a decline of 6.3% in AutoData sales for the first nine months. Price increases
did not have a significant effect on sales.
Cost of sales for the first nine months increased, but remained relatively
unchanged as a percentage of sales when compared to the same period of 1994.
Cost of sales for the third quarter decreased as a percentage of sales when
compared to the same period of 1994. The increased sales volume allowed the
company to spread the fixed direct and indirect cost over the increased
production.
Operating expenses decreased during the third quarter and first nine months of
1995. The decreased expense occurred primarily from cost containment programs
implemented by management early in the year in anticipation of slower than
expected sales growth in 1995. The reduced expenses were concentrated primarily
in the marketing and engineering areas. In addition, the company benefitted from
cost savings resulting from the purchase of its new building during the last
half of 1994.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the first nine months ended September 30, 1995, working capital increased
$1,912,346 to a total of $6,656,747. The increase in marketable securities,
which resulted from the reporting of unrealized gains on these holdings,
accounted for $1,442,322 of this change in working capital. Both accounts
receivable and inventories increased due to both the increased sales activity of
the Controls Division and the slowed third quarter Microflame sales activity. A
note receivable advance of $29,308 was made to the ESOP plan. In addition,
proceeds from the sale of marketable securities and the exercise of stock
options generated $174,756 and $17,813, respectively, during the first nine
months. The company paid $189,850 in cash dividends during the second quarter of
1995. In addition, the company invested both an additional $30,897 for office
and manufacturing equipment and $171,322 into the repayment of short-term
borrowings. The company also invested $143,500 for the purchase of marketable
and investment securities. The company has declared a $.50 per share or
approximately $951,500 cash dividend payable January, 10, 1996 to
