NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note A - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. They include the accounts of Tytronics (defined
below), and subsidiaries for the period ended March 31, 1998 and
the accounts of Metrisa, Inc. including the effects of the
Reorganization (defined below) from the closing date forward, for
the period ended March 31, 1999.
On May 1, 1998, the Company (formerly Holometrix, Inc.)
completed a reorganization ("Reorganization") pursuant to which
Tytronics Incorporated ("Tytronics"), the majority owner of the
Company, and National Metal Refining Company ("Nametre"), the
majority owned subsidiary of the Company, were merged into the
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Holometrix Acquisition
Corp., which was followed by the merger of Holometrix Acquisition
Corp. into the Company. As part of this Reorganization, Holometrix
changed its name to Metrisa, Inc., and effected a 50:1 reverse
stock split of its issued and outstanding capital stock. On
February 13, 1998, Tytronics acquired the assets of Micromet
Instruments Inc. ("Micromet"), and thus Micromet was also merged
into Holometrix Acquisition Corp., but as part of Tytronics.
Although Metrisa is the surviving corporation, because the
shareholders of Tytronics obtained a majority of voting rights in
Metrisa, Tytronics is deemed to be the acquiring entity for
accounting purposes. Accordingly, the Reorganization has been
accounted for as a recapitalization of Tytronics and the
acquisition by Tytronics of the minority interests of Metrisa
(formerly Holometrix) and Nametre under the purchase method of
accounting in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 16, "Business Combinations." The accompanying financial
statements reflect at the closing date, the acquisition by
Tytronics of the minority interest of Metrisa and Nametre based on
an independent valuation of Tytronics, Nametre, and Metrisa by an
independent investment banker.
A 50:1 reverse stock split was effected in May 1998 in
connection with the Company's Reorganization and resulting re-
capitalization. In addition, the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation was amended to change its authorized common stock and
par value to 2,000,000 shares with a $.50 par value. At the Annual
Meeting held on March 4, 1999, the authorized shares of common
stock were increased to 4,000,000 shares. All net income per share
information and common stock information presented in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes to the
financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect
the stock split and re-capitalization.
The results of operations for the interim period reported are
not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for the
full year. The accompanying financial information is unaudited;
however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to a fair
presentation of the operating results of the period have been
included. The interim financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto
for the year ended and as of September 30, 1998 included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB
Note B - Inventory
Inventory consisted of the following at:
March 31, 1999 September 30, 1998
Raw materials $1,130,402 $858,241
Work-in-process 63,738 263,213
Finished Goods 231,252 249,006
$1,425,392 $1,370,460
Note C - Net Income/Loss Per Share
In the first quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128"),
"Earnings Per Share". SFAS 128 requires the presentation of both
basic and diluted earnings per share and replaces the previously
required standards for computing and presenting earnings per share.
Outstanding options and warrants are included in the computation of
diluted earnings per share using the treasury stock method when
their effect is dilutive. For the period presented, the exercise
price of the options and warrants was greater than the average
market price of the Company's common stock. Net income (loss) per
share amounts for all periods have been presented and where
appropriate restated to conform to the requirements of SFAS 128.
The following is a reconciliation of the denominator (number of
shares) used in the computation of income (loss) per share. The
numerator (net income or loss) is the same for the basic and
diluted computations.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three-Month Period Ended March 31,1999 as Compared With the Three-
Month Period Ended March 31,1998
Net Revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 1999 totaled
$1,959,121 as compared to $1,904,359 in the comparable quarter of
1998, an increase of $54,762. This 3% increase was primarily a
result of increased sales from the Tytronics division offset by a
decrease in sales to the southeast Asian countries from the Nametre
division.
Cost of sales increased by $93,512, or 11%, from $819,302 (43%
of sales) in the second quarter of 1998, to $912,814 (47% of sales)
in the same period of fiscal 1999. This increase in cost of sales
is attributed primarily to the decrease in higher gross margin
sales in the Nametre division along with an unfavorable mix of
product shipments in the Holometrix-Micromet division.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by
$222,028, or 27%, from $831,210 (44% of sales) to $1,053,238 (54%
of sales). This increase was a result of a combination of
increased selling and marketing costs resulting from increased
selling and marketing support efforts, as well as increased general
and administrative costs resulting from the amortization of
expenses related to the Reorganization of the Company in April
1998, and the amortization of financing costs related to the
$2,000,000 subordinated debt financing in September 1998.
Research and development increased $11,054 from $165,307 (9% of
sales) to $176,361 (also 9% of sales).
Loss from operations was $183,292 in the second quarter of
fiscal 1999, compared with income of $88,540 in the comparable
period of fiscal 1998. Net loss was $274,367 in the second quarter
of fiscal 1999, compared with net income of $50,400 in the second
quarter of 1998. The net loss was also effected by increased
interest expenses associated with the subordinated debt financing.
Six-Month Period Ended March 31,1999 as Compared With the Six-Month
period Ended March 31,1998
Net Revenues in the first half of fiscal 1999 totaled $3,587,059
as compared to $3,538,582 in the comparable period of 1998, an
increase of $48,477. This 1% increase was primarily a result of
slightly increased sales in all divisions except Nametre, where
sales to the southeast Asian countries decreased.
Cost of sales increased by $85,610, or 5%, from $1,656,160 (47%
of sales) in the first half of 1998, to $1,741,770 (49% of sales)
in the same period of fiscal 1999. This increase in cost of sales
is attributed primarily to a decrease in higher gross margin sales
in the Nametre division along with an unfavorable mix of product
shipments in the Holometrix-Micromet division.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by
$192,779, or 11%, from $1,717,032 (49% of sales) to $1,909,811 (53%
of sales). This increase was a result of a combination of
increased selling and marketing costs resulting from increased
selling and marketing support efforts, as well as increased general
and administrative costs resulting from the amortization of
expenses related to the Reorganization of the Company in April
1998, and the amortization of financing costs related to the
$2,000,000 subordinated debt financing in September 1998.
Research and development basically remained constant, decreasing
only $5,935 from $338,099 (10% of sales) to $332,164 (9% of sales).
Loss from operations was $396,686 in the first half of fiscal
1999, compared with a loss of $172,709 in the comparable period of
fiscal 1998. Net loss was $594,872 in the first half of fiscal
1999, compared with net loss of $240,449 in the first half of 1998.
The net loss was also effected by interest expenses associated with
the subordinated debt financing.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Total Assets decreased by $1,358,642 (17%) in the first half of
fiscal 1999, from $8,207,908 at September 30,1998 to $6,849,266 at
March 31,1999. Cash decreased by $870,327, primarily due to the
completion of the payment of debt associated with the acquisition
of Micromet, expenses associated with the funding of the $2,000,000
subordinated debt financing and its associated interest expenses,
and payment of extended payables. Due to increased collection
activity, accounts receivable decreased by $412,085 in the first
half of fiscal 1999. Inventories increased by $54,932, other
current assets increased by $17,754, and equipment and fixtures
decreased by $35,742, primarily due to depreciation. Other assets
decreased by $113,174, mainly due to amortization.
Total Liabilities decreased by $720,493 in the first half of
fiscal 1999, primarily due to a decrease in accounts payable of
$96,581, a decrease of $131,053 in accrued expenses, and a decrease
of $687,859 in long-term debt, offset by an increase of $195,000 in
notes payable to bank. Accounts payable decreased by $96,581 from
$1,312,773 at September 30, 1998 to $1,216,192 at March 31,1999 due
to payment of extended payables, payment of commissions due to
Manufacturers' representatives and expenses associated with the
$2,000,000 subordinated debt financing.
Accrued expenses decreased by $131,053, from $508,319 at
September 30,1998 to $377,266 at March 31,1999, primarily because
of payment of taxes. Long-term debt decreased by $687,859 from
$3,395,218 at September 30, 1998 to $2,707,359 at March 31,1999,
due to the retiring of debt associated with the Micromet
acquisition and a portion of other long-term obligations, plus a
reclassification and transfer of $195,000 to notes payable to bank.
Cash flows were negative in the first half of fiscal 1999,
amounting to $870,327 as compared to a negative $680,292 in the
comparable period of fiscal 1998. Operating cash flows were also
negative at $306,346, compared to $258,594 for the same period in
fiscal 1998. Operating cash flows approximated the sum of the net
loss of $594,872 less depreciation and amortization of $176,761,
with decreases in accounts receivable of $412,085, offset by
increases in inventory and other current assets of $54,932 and
$17,754, respectively, and a decrease in accounts payable and
accrued expenses of $227,634.
The Company funded increases in equipment and fixtures of
$46,191 along with an increase in other assets of $18,346. The
decrease in long-term debt of $687,859 resulted from the payment of
the remainder of the purchase of the Micromet acquisition in the
amount of $208,166, the reclassi-fication and transfer of $195,000
to bank line of credit, and payment of other long-term debt.
The net affect of these transactions was a decrease in cash of
$870,327, providing cash at the end of the first half of fiscal
1999 of $1,598,726.
As of March 31, 1999, the Company had an outstanding order
backlog for product and services of approximately $1,180,000 as
compared to a backlog of $819,000 as of March 31,1998. The Company
believes substantially all of the current backlog will be realized
in fiscal 1999.
Notes Payable Line of Credit
The Company is party to a Silicon Valley Bank combined line of
credit and term loan of $1,750,000, secured by substantially all
assets of the Company. Advances under this line cannot exceed 75%
of the Company's eligible accounts receivable plus 15% of
inventory, as defined. All outstanding amounts are payable on
demand and advances are contingent upon maintaining certain
covenants relative to profitability, liquidity and tangible net
worth. As of March 31, 1999, the Company was in compliance with
all covenants and ratios of this line of credit.
As of September 29, 1998, the Company was party to a $2,000,000
subordinated debt financing agreement with Sirrom Investments, Inc.
("Sirrom"), secured by substantially all of the assets of the
Company, but subordinated to the Silicon Valley Bank financing.
This loan is due in full September 30, 2003, with interest-only
payments for the first two years.
Effect of Reorganization and Other Company Initiatives
The Company expects to continue to invest in enhanced sales
and marketing efforts, new product development, and the development
of strategic relationships, including licensing, acquisitions,
mergers, or OEM agreements. Management believes that operating
capital and the line of credit from Silicon Valley Bank, and the
$2,000,000 subordinated debt financing from Sirrom, will provide
sufficient capital to maintain stable Company operations throughout
fiscal 1999. As of May 1, 1998, the Company completed the
Reorganization previously discussed, pursuant to which Tytronics,
Micromet and Nametre were merged into the wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company, Holometrix Acquisition Corp., which was followed by
the merger of Holometrix Acquisition Corp. into the Company. As
part of the Reorganization, Holometrix changed its name to Metrisa,
Inc., and effected a 50:1 reverse stock split of its issued and
outstanding capital stock. Management believes that the
Reorganization will result in increased efficiencies for the
Company and provide for more stable Company operations. However,
there can be no assurance that additional or adequate profitability
and operating funds will be generated as a result of revenue
increases or the Reorganization, or that strategic relationships
will materialize, or that additional funding, if required, can be
obtained on acceptable terms.
Year 2000 ("Y2K")
The Company is aware of the issues related to the approach of
the Year 2000 and has assessed and investigated what steps must be
taken to ensure that its critical systems and equipment will
function appropriately after the turn of the century. The
assessments included a review of what systems and equipment need to
be changed or replaced in order to function correctly.
With the exception of remediation and implementation
consequences not known to the Company at this time, the Company
believes that all systems should be fully implemented by the end of
the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999.
As part of the Company's assessment of Y2K issues,
consideration was given to the possible impact upon the Company
from using purchased software, suppliers and outside service
providers. The Company's efforts with regard to Y2K issues are
dependent in part upon information received from such suppliers and
vendors upon which the Company has reasonably relied. While it is
not possible for the Company to predict all future outcomes and
eventualities, the Company is not aware, at this time, of any Y2K
non-compliant situations with regard to any of its purchased
software or its use of suppliers and outside service providers.
The Company estimates that it will spend approximately $100,000
to fully implement its Y2K compliance program. All Y2K costs have
been and will continue to be funded from operations.
The Company has evaluated its instruments and associated
software and has found them generally to be Y2K compliant, since
most of the software does not rely on any date-related information
for its normal operation.
The Company has formulated a contingency plan to deal with Y2K
issues. However, due to the complexity and widespread nature of
such issues, the contingency planning process of necessity must be
an ongoing one requiring possible further modification as more
information becomes known regarding (1) the Company's own systems
and facilities, and (2) the status and changes therein of the Y2K
compliance efforts of outside suppliers and vendors. As
significant Y2K uncertainties remain outside the control of the
