ENGINEERED SUPPORT SYSTEMS, INC.
Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations
Revenues increased 7% in the second quarter of 1996 to $18.9 million from
$17.7 million in the second quarter of 1995, and increased 9% to $36.0
million in the first six months of 1996 from $33.0 million in the first
half of 1995. The increase in revenues was generated primarily by the
Company's defense subsidiary, Engineered Air Systems, Inc. (Engineered
Air). Production levels remained high at Engineered Air, driven by its
contracts for C-5 and MA-3D Flight Line Air Conditioners, Harvest Falcon
Water Distribution Systems, Army Space Heaters, Revetment Kits and Aviation
Ground Power Units.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 1996 increased $0.1 million, or 4%,
over the amount for the comparable 1995 period primarily reflecting the
increase in production volume at Engineered Air. The gross margin for the
second quarter of 1996 was 15.7% as compared to 16.2% for the second
quarter of 1995.
Selling, general and administrative expense was $1.62 million and $1.49
million in the second quarter of 1996 and 1995, respectively. As a percent
of net revenues, selling, general and administrative expense increased from
8.4% in the second quarter of 1995 to 8.6% in 1996. For the six months
ended April 30, 1996, this percentage was 8.8% compared to 8.9% for the
first half of 1995.
Interest expense decreased $93,000, or 38%, in the second quarter of 1996
as compared with the second quarter of 1995. This was primarily the result
of continuing strong cash flow at Engineered Air.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At April 30, 1996, the Company's working capital and ratio of current
assets to current liabilities were $6.1 million and 1.57 to 1 as compared
to $4.7 million and 1.39 to 1 at October 31, 1995. As of April 30, 1996,
the Company had $5.3 million of unused credit related to its loan
agreement.
Business and Market Considerations
As of April 30, 1996, Engineered Air's funded backlog of defense orders was
$104 million compared to $82 million a year ago.
Historically, the Company has been heavily dependent on the U.S. Government
for business. However, the Company began a plan of diversification in 1993
with the acquisition of ESP. This acquisition has provided expansion into
the commercial marketplace. Management intends to continue to pursue new
acquisitions and business opportunities to complement existing product
lines and provide strategic diversification.
