ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
A summary of the period to period changes in the principal items
included in the consolidated statements of earnings is shown below:
Comparisons of
Three Months
Ended October 31, 1996 and 1995
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Increase (Decrease)
<S> <C> <C>
Net Sales $10,770,322 31.2%

Expenses (58,486) (3.6%)
Research and Development
Expenses 414,191 53.8%
Net Earnings 1,017,686 16.7%
</TABLE>
NET SALES
The 31.2% increase in sales for the three months ended October
31, 1996, as compared to the prior-year period, was the result
of strong hybrid inflator sales. Sales for the automotive
segment continued to increase due to increased demand for
driver and passenger side air bags for both domestic and
foreign automobile manufacturers. First quarter sales for the
automotive segment increased 46.3% to $36,362,400, as compared
to the prior-year period. Current year automotive sales are
projected to continue strong growth over last year. Sales for
the nonautomotive segment over prior year decreased 7.6% for
the three months ended October 31, 1996, as compared to the
prior-year period.
5
<PAGE>
COST OF SALES
Cost of sales increased by 36.9% for the three months ended
October 31, 1996, as compared to the prior-year period. This
was primarily attributed to increased sales of the automotive
segment. Cost of sales was further increased by production
costs associated with OEA's passenger side hybrid inflator,
which began high volume production in April 1996 and has
continued to increase production levels throughout the first
quarter as scheduled.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
General and Administrative expenses remained steady for the
three months ended October 31, 1996, as compared to the prior-
year period.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES
Research and Development costs were $1,183,700 for the three
months ended October 31, 1996, as compared to $769,500 for the
prior-year period. These costs are expected to decrease for
the remainder of fiscal year 1997 as OEA moves from the
development phase to the production phase for its passenger,
driver and side-impact hybrid inflators.
NET EARNINGS
The increase in net earnings of $1,017,700 for the three
months ended October 31, 1996, as compared to the prior-year
period, was primarily attributed to increased sales in the
automotive segment, partially offset by start-up expenses
associated with OEA's passenger side hybrid inflator high-
volume production line.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's working capital at October 31, 1996, increased
to $47,085,000. During the three-month period ended October
31, 1996, the Company made capital expenditures totaling
approximately $7,076,900 which were funded from operations and
bank borrowings. The Company maintains a $40,000,000
Revolving Credit Agreement with its principal bank and at
October 31, 1996, had an outstanding balance of $22,000,000
against this line of credit. Anticipated working capital
requirements, capital expenditures, and facility expansions
are expected to be met through internally generated funds and
borrowings from the agreement mentioned above, which can be
increased when required.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign subsidiary are
translated to U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates.
Income and expense items are translated at average exchange
rates prevailing during the period. The local currency is
6
<PAGE>
used as the functional currency for the subsidiary. A
translation adjustment results from translating the foreign
subsidiary's accounts from functional currencies to U.S.
dollars. Exchange gains (losses) resulting from foreign
currency transactions are included in the consolidated
statements of earnings.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains certain forward-looking statements with
respect to the Company's sales, plans, products, projections
and other matters. These statements are based on assumptions
as to future events and are therefore inherently uncertain.
A number of factors, including those discussed above, may
cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from
those contemplated by these forward-looking statements.
The Registrant's automotive safety products have historically
consisted of initiators which were sold to other companies for
incorporation into inflators and ultimately into air bag
modules. The Company's future sales in the automotive segment
are expected to consist increasingly of "smokeless" hybrid
inflators to be produced by the Company in new manufacturing
facilities being constructed and to be constructed. The
Company's inflator sales will depend on its success in
manufacturing inflators in volume which meet the expectations
of its customers in 1997 and increasing its penetration of the
inflator market over time.
The Company's expectations as to future sales are based upon
annual blanket purchase orders received by customers in the
automotive segment and governmental orders received in the
nonautomotive segment. Annual blanket purchase orders are not
binding on the Company's customers and actual quantities will
depend upon weekly releases received from these customers.
However, because the customers have designed the Company's
products into their air bag modules, the Company believes that
the actual quantity sold will vary based on its customers
sales. Governmental orders in the nonautomotive segment can
be cancelled or terminated for the convenience of the
government. In addition, future technological developments
could adversely impact sales of the Company's products.
The unaudited financial statements furnished above reflect all
adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals)
which are, in the opinion of OEA's management, necessary for a fair
statement of the results for the three-month period ended October
31, 1996.
Refer to the Company's annual financial statements for the year
ended July 31, 1996, for a description of the accounting policies,
which have been continued without change. Also, refer to the
footnotes with those financial statements for additional details of
the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and
changes in financial position. The details in those notes have not
changed except as a result of normal transactions in the interim.
