====== =====
SALES Sales increased in the First Quarter of 1995 by
18.3 percent to $7,226,000, compared to the First
Quarter of 1994. In the 1994 First Quarter, sales
decreased by 7.5 percent to $6,108,000 compared to
$6,604,000. The 1995 sales increase achieved in
the First Quarter consisted of 36.4 percent in the
Electronic Systems segment and 8.1 percent in the
Customized Packaging and Printing segment. In the
Electronics segment, sales increases, in dollar
value, came about equally from the
electroluminescent and keyboard manufacturing side
and the thick walled elastomeric products. The
first is related to increased activity in the
aerospace and defense electronics products. The
latter, to the increased business activity in the
global marketplace. The Customized Printing and
Packaging sales increased about equally between
<PAGE>
folding carton sales to the confectionery industry
and from specialty imprinting for the stationery,
party and gift market. In 1994, the sales
decrease came in the Electronics Systems segment
and was related to the defense electronics and
aerospace industry. Price increases have been
nominal, but the pressure to reduce pricing has
moderated.
BACKLOG The backlog for the Company decreased to
$6,000,000 compared to $6,700,000 at December 31,
1994, and $7,500,000 as of April 2, 1994. The
April 1, 1995, backlog is composed of $4,700,000
in the Electronic Systems segment and $1,300,000
in the Customized Printing and Packaging segment.
Part of the decrease in the backlog relates to the
timing/release of orders and part is a reflection
of the reduced cycle time from the receipt of an
order to the completion and delivery of the order
to the customer.
EXPENSES Cost of products sold decreased, as a percent of
sales, from 74.4 percent in 1994 to 70.3 percent
in 1995. This decrease reflects the 1994 one-time
charges related to the transition and relocation
of the Gloucester, MA, operation into the East
Aurora, NY, manufacturing facility. The hard
costs of the move were approximately $400,000, or
6.5 percent of sales. These costs consisted of
the following:
Buyout of a 5.75 year facility lease $150,000
Employee severance payments $150,000
Moving and travel costs $100,000
Overall, therefore, operating expenses increased
in the quarter. The three areas of increase were
manufacturing supplies, repairs and depreciation.
The Company is continuing to invest in technology
and processes which require initial investments in
support items, which are generally being treated
as supplies. During the quarter, the Company
elected to do additional preventive maintenance on
several machines and facilities. This had a
temporary effect of increasing repair costs.
Depreciation expense increased in the quarter to
9.3 percent of sales compared to 7.2 percent in
1994, and 5.8 percent in 1993. This reflects the
investment in technology and processes and the
retirement of an obsolete price of machinery.
Material usage costs, despite some increases in
raw material costs, continued to decrease. In
1995, they were 26.7 percent, in 1994, they were
27.0 percent. In 1993, product mix differences
reduced material usage to 25.0 percent. Employee
costs also continue to decrease. In 1995, these
costs are 23.1 percent of sales, compared to 24.2
percent in 1994, and 25.4 percent in 1993. The
<PAGE>
remaining areas of costs were similar in 1995,
1994, and 1993. Total costs in this areas were
$5,801,000, or 70.3 percent of sales in 1995,
compared to $4,545,000, or 74.4 percent of sales
in 1994, compared to $4,376,000, or 66.3 percent
in 1993.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased 12.9 percent in 1995, compared to an
increase of 8.5 percent in 1994. The 1995
increase compares to an increase in sales of 18.3
percent. The Company has a policy that it
reserves all trade receivables over 180 days, or
earlier if their are substantial questions.
During this quarter, an increase in reserves of
$102,000 was recorded. While the Company makes
every effort to collect all receivables, it
believes it is prudent to adequately reserve
accounts that are not collected in a reasonable
timeframe. Because of timing, some normal
advertising expenses experienced in the 1994 First
Quarter will be incurred in the Second Quarter of
1995. Total selling, general and administrative
expenses were $1,518,000, or 21 percent of sales
in 1995, compared to $1,345,000, or 22.0 percent
in 1994, and $1,240.000, or 18.8 percent of sales
in 1993.
INTEREST Interest costs, net, continues to decrease. This
is the result of the refinancing of the
subordinated debentures in 1993 and the steady
reduction of indebtedness. During the last twelve
months, the company has reduced indebtedness by
over $2,000,000. The earnings on temporary
available cash was $39,000 in 1995, $25,000 in
1994, and $26,000 in 1993. As a percent of sales,
interest costs, net, were 1.5 percent in 1995, 2.4
percent in 1994 and 3.8 percent in 1993.
Combining all the costs areas, the Company
experienced a 11.1 percent increase in costs,
while sales were increasing 18.3 percent. This
compares to an increase in costs in 1994 of 3.0
percent on a decline of sales of 7.5 percent.
Income before taxes increased to $518,000, or 7,2
percent compared to $69,000, or 1.1 percent of
sales in 1994, and $739,000, or 11.2 percent of
sales in 1993.
TAXES The effective tax rate for the First Quarter of
1995 was 46.7 percent, compared to 47.8 percent in
1994, and 40.2 percent in 1993. The tax provision
reflects the Federal income tax rate of 34.0
percent and various state income/franchise tax
rates. Where there are minimum taxes required by
law in various taxing jurisdictions, these are
accrued in the First Quarter.
<PAGE>
NET INCOME Net income was for the First Quarter was $276,000,
or $.07 per share. In 1994, the Company earned
$36,000, or $.01 per share compared to the First
Quarter of 1993 record earnings of $442,000, or
$.11 per share.
LIQUIDITY The Company's working capital decreased in the
First Quarter of 1995 by $1,382,000. This
reflects the following items for which working
capital was used:
Investment in technology and processes $1,543,000
Reduction of indebtedness 557,000
Acquisition of Treasury Stock 62,000
__________
$2,162,000
This compares to a increase of $135,000 in 1994
and an increase of $414,000 in 1993. The Company
has a $5,000,000 line of credit available for
additional working capital needs, which the
Company has not utilized in recent years. The
Company feels that its beginning cash balance, the
cash flow from internal operations and the line of
credit are adequate to meet the Company's
operational and investment plans for 1995.
COMMITMENTS The Company is continuing its commitment to
technology and processes. As such, it has
outstanding commitments at the end of the First
Quarter of 1995 of approximately $3,500,000. All
of these commitments should be completed and
operational by the end of the Fourth Quarter.
The Company also has commitments for items that it
purchases in the normal on-going affairs of the
business. The Company is not aware of any
obligations in excess of normal market conditions,
nor of any long-term commitments that would affect
its financial condition.
