ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
-------------------------------------------------
Condition and Results of Operations
-----------------------------------
Net revenues were $21,066,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 or 5
percent below the net revenues of $22,099,000 for the quarter ended September
30, 1995. The decrease was due to reduced sales in the Construction Equipment
and Railroad segments. The Construction Equipment segment experienced weaker
market demand compared with last year for environmental and aggregate crushing
equipment. The Railroad segment had a decline in sales due to lower
production of specialty railcars that use our load securement products and to
lack of demand for rail products in the United Kingdom market. The Materials
Handling segment had an increase in sales due to strong market demand for the
traditional power turn products.
Net income of $1,008,000 for the third quarter of 1996 was $54,000 above the
prior year's net income of $954,000. The 1996 net income included a reversal
of $221,000 in foreign income tax which had been recorded during the first
half of the year. This reversal was due to availability of a Canadian tax
loss carryforward. All segments experienced lower operating income in the
third quarter of 1996 compared with the same period last year. The
Construction Equipment segment's results were impacted by lower volume and
accompanying price pressure. The operating income of the Materials Handling
segment was below that of the third quarter of 1995 due to increased overhead
spending and lower volume at the Company's Countec operation. Lower sales
volume resulted in lower operating income for the Railroad segment.
For the third quarter of 1996, the gross margin was 28 percent compared with
30 percent for the third quarter of 1995. Selling, general and administrative
expense was 23 percent of net sales for the three months ended September 30,
1996 versus 24 percent for the same period in 1995. The decrease reflected a
reduction in professional fees and certain insurance costs. Other income in
the third quarter of 1996 was $121,000 below that of the same period in 1995
which included a gain on the sale of assets of the PVH business in the United
Kingdom. Interest expense decreased $157,000 during the three months ended
September 30, 1996 compared with the same period last year as a result of
decreased activity in Construction Equipment's floor plan financing. The
income tax provision in the third quarter of 1996 included a $200,000
reduction in the valuation reserve for deferred taxes.
Net revenues and the corresponding net income for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 were $76,805,000 and $4,902,000, respectively, compared
with net revenues of $77,976,000 and net income of $5,130,000 for the first
nine months of 1995. Sales for the period were 1 percent below the prior year
due to a decline in the sale of green waste processing equipment supplied by
our Construction Equipment segment. The 4 percent decrease in net income in
the first nine months of 1996 reflected lower gross margins of 28 percent
versus 29 percent in 1995. This decrease was offset by lower selling, general
and administrative expense of $933,000 and reduced interest expense of
$420,000 resulting in a 3 percent increase in income before tax. A higher
effective tax rate impacted net income for the first nine months of 1996.
This increase was due to the utilization of the remaining domestic tax loss
carryforward.
Current assets were $39,130,000 at September 30, 1996 compared with
$36,451,000 at December 31, 1995 and $36,599,000 at September 30, 1995. Cash
increased $1,923,000 and $1,444,000 from December 31, 1995 and September 30,
1995, respectively. Receivables of $16,468,000 at September 30, 1996 were up
$3,338,000 from December 31, 1995 as a result of changes in sales volume and
slower collections. The $3,388,000 change from September 30, 1995 reflected
an increase in days in accounts receivable in the Construction Equipment and
Railroad segments. Inventories decreased $2,616,000 from December 31, 1995
and $2,448,000 from September 30, 1995. The decrease from year end resulted
from reduced Canadian inventory in anticipation of lower seasonal sales and a
focused effort to reduce inventory at the Construction Equipment segment. The
decrease from September 30, 1995 was due to the write-off of Innovator
inventory at year end and to a continuing effort to reduce inventory.
Fixed asset acquisitions were $1,675,000 during the first nine months of 1996
versus $2,349,000 during the same period of last year. Depreciation and
amortization of $1,945,000 was up $129,000 over that of last year. The
increase in goodwill of $1,404,000 from December 31, 1995 resulted from the
acquisition of Moore & Steele, a producer of railroad track lubrication
products, in July and payment on certain earn out provisions related to an
acquisition. These changes were partially offset by amortization. The net
increase in goodwill of $141,000 from September 30, 1995 to September 30, 1996
was the result of the above mentioned goodwill additions partially offset by a
write-off of goodwill related to the Innovator acquisition at December 31,
1995 and amortization.
At September 30, 1996, current liabilities were down $3,483,000 from December
31, 1995 and $2,996,000 from September 30, 1995. The change from year end
resulted from a decrease in accounts payable due to lower working capital
needs and to lower customer deposits. A decrease in customer deposits,
accrued expenses and other current liabilities resulted in the change from
September 30, 1995.
Long-term debt of $13,080,000 was $2,963,000 and $3,328,000 higher than that
of December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1995, respectively. The increases were
due to the acquisition of Moore & Steele and to a large pension payment
made in September of 1996.
The increase in stockholders' equity of $4,904,000 from December 31, 1995 to
September 30, 1996 was attributable to net income and the exercise of stock
options. These were partially offset by an increase in the cumulative
translation adjustment. The $2,809,000 increase in stockholders' equity from
September 30, 1995 to September 30, 1996 was due to a loss during the fourth
quarter of 1995 and net income during the first three quarters of 1996 and the
exercise of stock options. The increase in cumulative translation loss also
impacted the result. The Company declared an 8 cent cash dividend on common
stock for the fourth quarter of 1996. This is the first cash dividend
declared by the Company since 1986.
The Company received new orders of $19,992,000 during the third quarter of
1996 compared with $23,701,000 for the third quarter of 1995. The 16 percent
decrease was attributable to a significant reduction in bookings for the
Construction Equipment and Materials Handling segments while the Railroad
segment experienced increased bookings. The order backlog was $18,069,000 at
September 30, 1996 compared with $21,590,000 and $19,527,000 at December 31,
1995 and September 30, 1995, respectively.
Liquidity
On February 12, 1993, the Company entered into a credit agreement with a bank
which was amended at April 26, 1994, and June 13, 1995. The amended agreement
provides up to $15,300,000 of credit available as either cash or letters of
credit. The provisions of the agreement include restrictive covenants
relating to minimum net worth, interest coverage, net working capital and
leverage ratio requirements. The provisions also limit cash dividend payments
and additional indebtedness.
The Company does not have available lines of credit beyond its existing bank
agreement and is prohibited by the agreement from making other borrowings.
The Company presently has a facility for sale or lease in Troy, New York. Due
to economic conditions and other factors, the efforts to sell this property
have not been successful. A property in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, has been
leased on a long-term lease with an option to buy.
Due to the seasonal fluctuation in the Company's working capital needs and the
limitations on borrowing, the Company continues to exert careful cash
controls. However, management believes its existing line of credit and
anticipated operating results will provide the Company with sufficient funds
for working capital, capital expenditures and acquisitions to support
anticipated growth. The Company's working capital ratios were 2.9, 2.1 and
2.2 to 1 at September 30, 1996, December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1995,
respectively. At September 30, 1996, the Company had available $2,050,000 of
unused credit under its loan agreement, plus cash and cash equivalents of
$5,400,000. This compared with $5,274,000 and $4,866,000 of unused credit and
$3,477,000 and $3,956,000 of cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1995
and September 30, 1995, respectively.
