PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net sales for the first quarter ended March 31, 1997 were $36.0 million, a
6.3% decline from a record first quarter one year ago. This decline is the
result of an interruption of capital expenditures by several major railroads
while in merger negotiations, severe winter weather in the northern United
States, flooding in the northwestern United States and accelerated capital
investments by some customers in the fourth quarter of 1996.
Gross profit for the 1997 first quarter was $8.2 million, a 15.7% decline
from the 1996 first quarter. This decline resulted from the decrease in net
sales and a lower gross margin rate for the quarter. As a percent of sales,
gross margin was 22.8% versus 25.3% in the first quarter of 1996. The
decline in gross margin is primarily the result of an increase in the sales
mix toward services, systems and pass-through sales. In addition, research
and development expenditures increased to 4.5% of sales in the first quarter
of 1997 compared to 3.8% of sales in the same quarter one year ago.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) decreased to $5.8 million
in the first quarter of 1997 from $6.2 million in the first quarter of 1996.
The decrease is primarily attributable to lower incentive-based compensation
expenses. As a percent of sales, SG&A was 16.2% during the first quarter of
1997 versus 16.1% for the first quarter of 1996.
Orders for the Company's products and services increased significantly during
the first quarter of 1997 to $46.6 million from $34.9 million during the
first quarter of 1996, an increase of 33.4%. Order increases occurred in all
three of the Company's markets; freight, transit and international. The
order backlog at March 31, 1997 was $70.2 million, up from $59.4 million at
December 31, 1996 and $40.9 million one year ago.
Interest expense decreased to $124 thousand from $255 thousand for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 compared to the same period last year. This
decrease is attributed to lower average outstanding debt during the 1997
first quarter compared to the 1996 first quarter and a lower weighted average
interest rate on borrowed funds in the 1997 quarter versus the 1996 quarter.
The effective tax rate decreased to 34.8% in the first quarter of 1997 from
38.0% in the first quarter of 1996. This decrease is due to lower state
income taxes and use of United Kingdom tax loss carryforwards.

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" which revises the calculation and presentation
provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion 15 and related
interpretations. Statement No. 128 is effective for the Company's fiscal
year ending December 31, 1997. The Company believes the adoption of
Statement No. 128 will not have a significant effect on its reported earnings
per share.
At March 31, 1997 the Company had $42.6 million in liquidity. This consisted
of $9.2 million in cash and cash equivalents plus $33.4 million available
under bank lines of credit. This cash position is the result of the issuance
of $15.0 million of senior unsecured notes on January 24, 1997. The notes
have a ten year maturity, an average life of seven years and were priced to
yield 6.87%. The current ratio at March 31, 1997 was 2.8 to 1 compared to
1.9 to 1 at December 31, 1996 and 2.6 to 1 at March 31, 1996. The increase
in the current ratio from December 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997 is the result
of an increase in cash and cash equivalents following the issuance of the
senior unsecured notes and decreases in accounts payable and accrued payroll,
bonus and employee benefit plan contributions during the period.
