Note 4 Income Taxes
For the three months ended December 1, 1995, there was no current
income tax expense due to certain expenses being currently deductible
for federal and state income tax purposes and not currently deductible
for financial statement purposes, resulting in a tax loss. Increases
in deferred tax liabilities were fully offset by a decrease in the
deferred tax asset valuation allowance. The valuation allowance
decreased approximately $22,000 in the first quarter. At December 1,
1995, net deferred tax assets of $1,011,000 were fully reserved by a
valuation allowance as a result of the Company's history of operating
losses. At December 1, 1995, the Company had approximately $1,586,000
of federal net operating loss carryforwards which expire in 2009 and
2010; and $137,000 of alternative minimum tax credits and $159,000 of
other federal tax credits expiring through 2004 available to offset
future tax liabilities.

WEGENER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company manufactures satellite communications equipment through Wegener
Communications, Inc. (WCI), a wholly-owned subsidiary. WCI manufactures
products for transmission of audio, data, and video via satellite.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 1, 1995 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS
ENDED DECEMBER 2, 1994
Net earnings were $65,000 or $0.01 per share for the three month period ended
December 1, 1995, compared to $13,000 or $0.00 per share for the three month
period ended December 2, 1994.
REVENUES - The Company's revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 were
$4,369,000, up 14.0% from revenues of $3,834,000 for the same period in fiscal
1995.
Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) revenues increased 19.5% mainly due to
increased shipments of digital audio and video products to the business music
and private network industries. First quarter DBS revenues were adversely
impacted by delays in the introduction of new products. These products and
orders are expected to begin shipping in the second quarter of fiscal 1996.
Telecom and Custom Products Group revenues decreased 5.0% which reflect a
maturing product line and reduced shipments to the cable television and radio
network industries. WCI's backlog was approximately $30,996,000 as of December
1, 1995, compared to $27,402,000 at September 1, 1995 and $25,122,000 at
December 2, 1994.
GROSS PROFIT MARGINS - The Company's gross profit margins were 36.6% for the
three month period ended December 1, 1995 compared to 37.0% for the three month
period ended December 2, 1994. First quarter margins were adversely impacted by
manufacturing overhead expenses which were increased to support increased
manufacturing capacity and higher inventory levels. This was partially offset
by an improved DBS product mix which included new digital audio and video
compression products which have higher margins than analog DBS products.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE - Selling, general and administrative
expenses were $845,000 or 19.3% of revenues for the three months ended December
1, 1995 compared to $727,000 or 19.0% of revenues for the same period in fiscal
1995. The increase in expenses is due to higher levels of compensation,
selling, and marketing expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 which were
deferred in the first quarter of fiscal 1995 to offset lower revenues.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT - Research and development expenditures, including
capitalized software development costs, were $742,000 or 17.0% of revenues in
the first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to $606,000 or 15.8% of revenues for
the same period of fiscal 1995. Capitalized software development costs amounted
to $173,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to $55,000 in the first
quarter of fiscal 1995. The increases in expenditures are for the continued
development of digital products.
The Company remains committed to such research and development expenditures as
are required to effectively compete and maintain pace with the rapid
technological changes in the communications
10
<PAGE>
industry and to support innovative engineering and design in its future
products. The amount of future research and development expenditures are
expected to increase compared to fiscal 1995 and decrease as a percent of
revenues. The Company's ability to continue the rapid development of new
digital products is directly tied to its ability to obtain additional funding,
if required.
INTEREST EXPENSE - Interest expense increased 24.0% in the three month period in
the first quarter compared to the same period of fiscal 1995 primarily due to
increases in the average outstanding borrowings.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 1, 1995
Depending on the level of revenues and profitability in fiscal 1996 additional
funds for working capital may be required. The Company believes that additional
funds will be available, if required, through a private placement or a secondary
public offering of additional shares of common stock or through additional
borrowing.
If additional financing is required and is not available, management of the
Company is committed to cutting the necessary costs throughout the organization
and limiting certain planned programs in order to keep cash requirements within
the current line-of-credit availability. This action would very likely result
in lower revenues. This would ultimately impact the level of expenditures
available for research and development expenses. However, management believes
that suitable financing will be successfully obtained if required.
During the first quarter of fiscal 1996 cash and cash equivalents decreased
$3,257,000. Operating activities used $2,159,000 of cash. Inventory increases
used cash of $5,170,000 which was partially offset by increases in accounts
payable of $1,943,000 and decreases in accounts receivable of $854,000. The
Company's revolving line of credit limits inventory advances to a maximum of the
lesser of $1,500,000 or 75% of accounts receivable availability. The inventory
advances are currently at the maximum availability and as a result the Company
is paying its trade payable creditors under informal extended payment
arrangements. No assurances can be given that extended payment arrangements
will continue to be granted by vendors and suppliers. Any suspension or delay
in the delivery of materials would have an adverse effect on results of
operations.
Inventory levels and accounts payable balances were adversely impacted by delays
in introduction of new products which were expected to begin shipping in the
first quarter. The Company believes the products will begin shipping towards
the end of the second quarter resulting in decreases in inventory levels and
accounts payable balances.
Cash used by investment activities for property and equipment expenditures and
capitalized software additions was $413,000. Cash used by financing activities
was $685,000.
The outstanding balance on the line-of-credit was $2,515,000 at December 1,
1995, compared to $3,079,000 at September 1, 1995. At December 1, 1995,
$471,000 was available to borrow under the accounts receivable portion of the
advance formula. Long-term debt and current maturities were $2,673,000 at the
end of the first quarter compared to $2,796,000 at September 1, 1995.
