Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 1995 and 1994
(Unaudited)
General
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally
included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the company believes that
the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed financial
statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments and
reclassifications that are necessary for fair presentation. It is suggested
that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the
company's latest annual report to the Securities and Exchange Commission on
Form 10-K.
Earnings Per Share
The computation of earnings per common share is based on the weighted
average number of common, and if dilutive, common equivalent shares
outstanding, during each quarter. Although outstanding, the shares held by
the Company-controlled Stock Employee Compensation Trust are excluded from the
weighted average number of shares, for purposes of calculating earnings per
share. As of March 31, 1995, a total of 319,500 shares are subject to
outstanding employee stock option agreements and accounted for as dilutive
common stock equivalents under the treasury stock method. The strike prices
of these options are $1.75, $1.87 and $4.00 per share. The bid price of the
Company's stock at March 31, 1995 was $4.62 per share.
Statement of Cash Flows
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table sets forth the percentages of major items reflected
in the Unaudited Consolidated Statement of Earnings as a percentage of
revenue.
<TABLE>
Three Months Ended
March 31
1995 1994
<S> <C> <C>
Revenues 100.00% 100.00%
Operating Expenses 97.60% 97.64%
Income from operations 2.40% 2.36%
Other income (expense) <.76%> <.96%>
Provision for income taxes <.84%> <.66%>
Net Earnings .80% .74%
</TABLE>
During the first quarter of 1995, the Company's revenues increased 4%
over the same period in 1994. QuesTech Research Division ("QTRD"), the
Company's primary operating division, provided 95% of the Company's revenues,
up from 87% for the same period last year. The impact of a business unit on
the Company's revenue mix at any one time is affected by its utilization of
resources as directed by contract. QTRD's position was enhanced by a 12%
increase in its revenues, which rose over last year by approximately $1.3
million. The revenue increase for 1995 was driven primarily by increased
utilization of in-house direct labor, in lieu of subcontracted efforts,
thereby resulting in more favorable gross margins. Revenues were further
boosted by performance on new contracts/task orders awarded during the fourth
quarter of last year. Despite QTRD's performance, the Company's growth was
diminished by the continued business contraction of another subsidiary,
QuesTech Service Company ("QTSC"), which posted revenues at half of last
year's level, due to the loss of a major contract. Although QTSC's revenues
for 1995 are expected to be less than 1994, revenue margins on its remaining
contracts adequately covered its cost of operations, thereby helping boost
operating margins for the Company as a whole. No sales were recognized for
QuesTech Ventures, Inc. ("QVI"), which had unfilled sales orders, pending its
completion of equipment set-up and initial facility build-out.
Operating expenses increased slightly less than 4% in the aggregate, with
most of the increase due to higher labor costs and related fringe. A
substantial amount of the labor cost increase was contractually required in
accordance with customer task orders. Despite a $0.5 million decline in costs
related to direct subcontract and B&P efforts, other operating expenses
increased due to the following:
<PAGE>
(a) start-up costs incurred in connection with equipment set-up and
product development efforts at QVI. Management does not expect to post sales
for QVI until commencement of production during the second half of the year;
(b) increased purchases of direct materials and other direct costs;
(c) facility related expenses, including moving expenses associated with
the consolidation of the corporate headquarters office in the newly reduced
lease space. Cost savings from the newly negotiated corporate headquarters'
lease, which was consummated during April, 1995, will be reflected in the
results of operations for the remainder of the year;
(d) additional litigation expenses incurred in the Company's ongoing
litigation against its former landlord.
For the same period last year, most of the expense increase was due to
higher expenditures towards bids and proposals, and procurement of direct
subcontracts and materials.
Income from Operations increased 6% over last year as a result of
favorable margins on existing contracts. Additionally, QTSC's operating
margins almost tripled, despite its revenue drop to half of last year's level.
The Company did not assume new long-term borrowings during 1995, thereby
benefiting from interest cost savings during the current year.
Pre-tax earnings were up 23%, due to the combined favorable impact of
improved operating margins and interest cost savings. For the remainder of
the year, the Company projects an effective tax rate of 51%, after accounting
for the estimated effect of goodwill amortization costs and other expenses
that are non-deductible for tax purposes. Despite the increased provision for
income taxes, net earnings rose 14%, from $87,100 during 1994 to $98,900
during 1995 due to favorable operating margins and interest cost savings.
Per share earnings were $0.07, up from $0.06 last year. For purposes of
calculating earnings per share, total outstanding shares were reduced by the
number of shares held by the SECT and increased by the dilutive effect of
common stock equivalents.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The following table sets forth certain financial data with respect to
changes in the Company's liquidity and capital resources since December 31,
1994 (in thousands of dollars except for ratios):
<TABLE>
3/31/95 12/31/94 NET CHANGES
<S> <C> <C> <C>
Working capital $ 2,795 $ 2,903 $ <108>
Current assets 8,948 10,799 <1,851>
Current liabilities 6,153 7,896 <1,743>
Working capital ratio (1) 1.45 1.37 6%
(1) Current assets over current liabilities.
</TABLE>
<PAGE>
During the first quarter, the Company used cash from operations
(primarily, collections on receivables) and proceeds from its line of credit
to finance the following transactions, the related costs for which were
included in accrued liabilities of the financial statements at December 31,
1994:
- - - - - - - - payment made to the headquarters' landlord for lease termination costs,
including accrued legal expenses, amounting to approximately $1 million;
- - - - - - - - accrued amounts for direct materials and subcontractor costs amounting to $1
million;
- - - - - - - - annual pay-outs to retirees and terminated participants of the Deferred
Compensation Plan.
Additionally, the Company incurred greater amounts of capital
expenditures towards leasehold improvements, new personal computers, and new
furniture during the quarter, compared to the same period last year.
Management believes that the Company does not owe additional tax payments
on its estimated 1994 taxable income, as of the return's due date. Estimated
tax payments of $61,500 for the first quarter were made during April, 1995.
The Board of Directors of the Company has previously authorized the
Company to utilize its existing line of credit with the Signet Bank for the
purpose of financing the Company's performance of QVI under the Supply
Agreement with Munchkin Bottling Co., Inc. It is expected that expenditures
in connection with that performance will be up to $1.5 million. Of this
amount, approximately $750,000 has been committed towards the purchase of
custom forming units and related equipment consisting of heating and material
handling units. On March 13, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors
authorized management to negotiate and execute, subject to the Board's
approval, all necessary documentation to implement the financing, by ten-year
Industrial Revenue Bonds, of an investment of up to approximately $3.7
million, in the aggregate, which will be applied towards the purchase of
machines for QVI, plus the lease of an approved production facility. The cost
of the machines include costs of configuring several specialized pieces of
equipment designed to produce thermoformed containers en masse, in addition to
the costs of plant and other equipment.
By the second half of the year, management expects to allocate an
additional $500,000 towards the implementation of a new corporate information
system and required leasehold improvements to accommodate the consolidation of
the headquarters' staff in one floor of the 7600-A facility.
INFLATION
The impact of inflation on the Company's costs should be minimal due to
the fact that increased costs of this type are normally included in the
pricing structure or otherwise recovered through reimbursement of contract
costs incurred.
BACKLOG
The term "backlog" as used herein includes the aggregate contract
revenues, remaining to be earned at the stated time, to the extent of the
value of the contract award thereunder. Virtually all of the Company's
backlog is expected to be completed within three years. The following table
reflects the Company's funded and unfunded backlog as of March 31, 1995 and
March 31, 1994.

</TABLE>
The term "funded" used herein refers to the portion of aggregate contract
revenues remaining to be earned that is covered by funding appropriations and
allotments to the contract by the procuring agency. The term "unfunded"
refers to the excess of the value of the contract award over the funded value.
Management does not provide any assurance that the customer will authorize
funding amounts in addition to funding commitments existing as of the period
just ended.

PART II
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
There have been no material developments in litigation involving the
Company as previously reported in its Form 10-K filing for the year ended
December 31, 1994.
Item 2. Other Information
During April, 1995, management authorized its legal representatives in
Canada to undertake the appropriate measures to formally close out its
Canadian subsidiary, QuesTech North American Limited ("QNAL"). The Company
has not had any corporate presence or operation in Canada since it closed down
its Ontario facility in 1992. The subject transaction does not have any
impact on the financial statements.
