MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
- -------
The following discussion and analysis presents certain
factors affecting the Company's results of operations for
thirteen weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 1996, as
compared to thirteen weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended October 1,
1995.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Thirteen weeks ended September 29, 1996 compared to thirteen
weeks ended October 1, 1995.
- --------------------------------------------------------------
Net sales for the thirteen weeks ended September 29, 1996
(third quarter of 1996) were $12,059,000 compared to net sales
for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 1995 (third quarter of
1995)of $18,226,000. The decrease in sales was the result of
lower military product sales.
The gross margin percentage for the third quarter of 1996
was 25.0% as compared with 19.8% for the same period in 1995.
The increase in gross margin percentage was the result of a more
favorable product mix.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third
quarter of 1996 decreased 1.5% from the third quarter of 1995, to
$1,878,000. These expenses as a percent of sales were 15.6% in
the third quarter of 1996 compared to 10.5% for the similar
period in 1995. The increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percent of net sales was due to
lower net sales for the third quarter of 1996 as compared to the
same period in 1995 and a gain on the sale of M-Systems shares
in the third quarter of 1995.
Company sponsored engineering, research and development
expenses for the third quarter of 1996 decreased 62.3% from the
third quarter of 1995 to $294,000. These expenses as a
percentage of sales were 2.4% in the third quarter of 1996
compared to 4.3% for the similar period in 1995. The decrease
is attributable to an increased amount of research and
development funded by contracts and greater efficiencies in
research and development processes.
Interest expense net of interest income was $297,000 in the
third quarter of 1996 compared to $307,000 for the similar period
in 1995.
Net earnings for the third quarter of 1996 as compared
with the same period of 1995 decreased $75,000. Earnings per
share were $.09 for the third quarter of 1996 compared to $.11
for the similar period a year ago based on a weighted average of
5,867,000 shares and 5,840,000 shares of the Company's common
stock outstanding for the respective periods.
The income tax provision in the third quarter of 1996 was
completely offset by the utilization of the Company's net
operating loss carryforward. A net deferred tax asset could be
recognized in future periods if the probability of realization
increases.
Thirty-nine weeks ended September 29, 1996 compared to
Thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 1995.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
Net sales for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 29,
1996 (first nine months of 1996) were $33,145,000 compared to net
sales for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 1995 (first nine
months of 1995) of $55,488,000. The decrease in sales was the
result of lower military product sales.
The gross margin percentage for the first nine months of
1996 was 24.5% as compared with 19.5% for the same period in
1995. The increase in gross margin was the result of a more
favorable product mix.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first
nine months of 1996 decreased 32.9% from the first nine months of
1995, to $4,839,000. These expenses as a percent of sales were
14.6% in the first nine months of 1996 compared to 13.0% for
the similar period in 1995. The increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percent of net sales was primarily
attributable to lower net sales for the third quarter of 1996 as
compared to the same period in 1995.
Company sponsored engineering research and development
expenses for the first nine months of 1996 decreased 60.8% from
the first nine months of 1995 to $1,204,000. These expenses as
a percentage of sales were 3.6% in the first nine months of 1996
compared to 5.5% for the similar period in 1995. The decrease is
attributable to an increased amount of research and development
funded by contracts and greater efficiencies in research and
development processes.
Interest expense net of interest income was $888,000 in the
first nine months of 1996 compared to $1,053,000 for the similar
period in 1995. The decrease reflects decreased debt compared to
the prior year.
Net earnings for the first nine months of 1996 were
$1,186,000 compared to a net loss of $521,000 for the similar
period in 1995. Earnings per share for the first nine months of
1996 were $0.20 compared to a loss per share of $0.09 for the
similar period a year ago based on a weighted average of
5,867,000 shares and 5,841,000 shares of the Company's common
stock outstanding for the respective periods.
The income tax provision in the first nine months of
1996 was completely offset by the utilization of the Company's
net operating loss carryforward. A net deferred tax asset
could be recognized in future periods if the probability of
realization increases.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
Working capital approximated $20,590,000 at September 29,
1996 compared to $18,896,000 at December 31, 1995.
A $15,000,000 revolving credit agreement bears interest
at the bank's reference rate, however, the interest rate
increases to the bank's reference rate plus .25% if the
principle balance of the revolving credit facility exceeds
$10,000,000. As of September 29, 1996, the Company had
approximately $5,233,000 available under such facility. The
revolving credit facility balance was $9,767,000 at September
29, 1996 compared to $10,304,000 at December 31, 1995. The
revolving credit facility is scheduled to mature on May 31,1998
at which time the outstanding amount would be converted into a
term loan, payable in twelve (12)equal quarterly installments.
However, the bank may extend the revolving credit facility for
successive one(1)year periods based upon a review of the
Company's financial position. The Company's accounts
receivable, contract rights and inventories re pledged as
collateral to the agreement.
