NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(In thousands, except per share information)
Note 1 - Financial Statements
The consolidated balance sheet as of March 30, 1997 and the
consolidated
statements of earnings and cash flows for the nine months ended
March 30,
1997 and March 31, 1996 have been prepared by the Company, without
audit. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position,
results of
operations and cash flows at March 30, 1997 and for all periods
presented,
have been made. The balance sheet at June 30, 1996 was also
condensed from
the audited financial statements as of that date.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These
consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's June 30,
1996 Form
10-K and Banner Aerospace, Inc.'s March 31, 1996 Form 10-K. The
results of
operations for the period ended March 30, 1997 are not necessarily
indicative
of the operating results for the full year. Certain amounts in
prior years'
quarterly financial statements have been reclassified to conform to
the
current presentation.
Note 2 - Merger Agreement
The Company, The Fairchild Corporation ("TFC"), the Company's
parent and
Fairchild Industries, Inc. ("FII"), the Company's subsidiary,
entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of November 9, 1995 (as
amended, the
"Merger Agreement") with Shared Technologies Inc. ("STI"). On
March 13,
1996, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, STI succeeded to the
telecommunications systems and services business operated by the
Company's
Fairchild Communications Services Company ("FCSC").
The transaction was effected by a merger of FII with and into
STI (the
"Merger") with the surviving company renamed Shared Technologies
Fairchild
Inc. ("STFI"). Prior to the Merger, FII transferred all of its
assets to,
and all of its liabilities were assumed by Fairchild Holding Corp.
("FHC"),
a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, except for the assets and
liabilities of FCSC, and $223,500 of the FII's existing debt and
preferred
stock. As a result of the Merger, the Company received shares of
Common
Stock and Preferred Stock of STFI, representing approximately a 41%
ownership
interest in STFI.
The Merger was structured as a reorganization under section
386(a)(1)(A)
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Company
recorded a
$162,544 non-recurring gain from this transaction, in the third
quarter ended
March 31, 1996.
Note 3 - Discontinued Operations
On February 22, 1996, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement
dated
January 26, 1996, the Company, through one of its subsidiaries,
completed the
sale of certain assets, liabilities and the business of the D-M-E
Company
("DME") to Cincinnati Milacron Inc. ("CMI"), for a sales price of
approximately $244,331, as adjusted. The sales price consisted of
$74,000 in
cash, and two 8% promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount
of
$170,331 (together, the "8% CMI Notes"). On July 29, 1996, CMI
paid in full
the 8% CMI Notes.
As a result of the sale of DME, the Company recorded a gain on
disposal
of discontinued operations of approximately $61,338, net of a
$56,235 tax
provision, in the quarter ended March 31, 1996.
On January 27, 1996, FII completed the sale of Fairchild Data
Corporation ("Data") to SSE Telecom, Inc. ("SSE") for (i) cash of
approximately $4,400, (ii) 100,000 shares of SSE's common stock
valued at
$9.06 per share, or $906, at January 26, 1996, and (iii) warrants
to purchase
an additional 50,000 shares of SSE's common stock at $11.09 per
share.
Accordingly, DME and Data have been accounted for as
discontinued
operations. The combined net sales of DME and Data totaled $16,789
and
$108,131 for the third quarter and first nine months of Fiscal
1996,
respectively. Net earnings from discontinued operations was $1,769
in the
third quarter of Fiscal 1996, and $9,059 for the nine months ended
March 30,
1996.
Note 4 - Majority Interest Business Combination
Effective February 25, 1996, the Company completed a transfer
of the
Company's Harco Division ("Harco") to Banner Aerospace, Inc.
("Banner") in
exchange for 5,386,477 shares of Banner common stock. The exchange
has
increased the Company's ownership of Banner common stock from
approximately
47.2% to 59.3%, resulting in the Company becoming the majority
shareholder of
Banner. Accordingly, the Company consolidated Banner on February
25, 1996.
Banner is a leading international supplier to the aerospace
industry as a
distributor, providing a wide range of aircraft parts and related
support
services.
Note 5 - Pro forma Financial Statements
The following unaudited pro forma information for the nine
months ended
March 31, 1996, provides the results of the Company's operations as
though
(i) the disposition of DME and Data, (ii) the Merger of FCSC, and
(iii) the
transfer of Harco to Banner, resulting in the consolidation of
Banner, had
been in effect since the beginning of the period. The pro forma
information
is based on the historical financial statements of the Company,
DME, Data,
FCSC and Banner, giving effect to the aforementioned transactions.
In
preparing the pro forma data, certain assumptions and adjustments
have been
made, which (i) reduce interest expense for revised debt
structures, (ii)
increase interest income for notes receivable, (iii) reduce
minority interest
to exclude Series C Preferred Stock of FII redeemed, and (iv)
adjust equity
in earnings of affiliates to include the estimated results of STFI.
The following unaudited pro forma financial information is not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually
would have
occurred if the transactions had been in effect since the beginning
of the
Fiscal 1996 period, nor is it necessarily indicative of future
results of the
Company.

operations that have been or are expected to be incurred from these
transactions, within the ensuing year.
Note 6 - Acquisitions
The following acquisitions by the Company have been accounted
for using
the purchase method. The purchase prices assigned to the net
assets acquired
were based on the fair value of such assets and liabilities at the
respective
acquisition dates. The Company included the results of operations
of the
acquired companies as of the date of acquisition.
On January 16, 1997, Banner, through its subsidiary, Dallas
Aerospace,
Inc., consummated the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding stock
of PB
Herndon Company ("PB Herndon") for approximately $14,700. In
addition,
Banner paid approximately $1,300 to repay certain loans of PB
Herndon.
Banner recorded approximately $4,500 of goodwill as a result of
this
acquisition. Banner financed this transaction by borrowing $16,000
from RHI.
PB Herndon is a distributor of aerospace fasteners and other
aerospace
related components.
On February 4, 1997, Banner, through its subsidiary,
Professional
Aviation Associates, acquired the assets of Air Marine and Air
Marine
Accessories for $1,200. Banner recorded approximately $585 in
goodwill as a
result of this acquisition.
On February 26, 1997, the Company completed a transaction
pursuant to
which the Company acquired from Mines de Kali Sainte-Therese S.A.
("KST")
common shares and convertible debt representing an 84.2% interest,
on a fully
diluted basis, of Simmonds S.A. ("Simmonds"), for approximately
$21,000.
Additionally, the Company paid approximately $14,000 to repay
certain loans
of Simmonds. The Company has initiated a tender offer to purchase
the
remaining shares of common stock and convertible debt of Simmonds,
held by
the public (together with the purchase from KST and the repayment
of debt,
the "Simmonds Acquisition"). Management estimates that the total
cost of
the Simmonds Acquisition, including debt assumed, will be
approximately
$56,500. The Company recorded approximately $15,800 in goodwill as
a result
of this acquisition. The Company funded the Simmonds Acquisition
with
available cash and borrowings. Simmonds is one of Europe's leading
manufacturers and distributors of aerospace and automotive
fasteners.
Proforma financial statements are not required for these
acquisitions.

Company
placed shares of Banner, with a fair market value of $5,000, in
escrow to
secure the Company's remaining indemnification of BTR against a
contingent

Note 9 - Credit Agreements
Prior to July 29, 1996, the Company through RHI's subsidiary

Restated Credit Agreement extends to July 28, 2000, the maturity of
FHC's
revolving credit facility (the "FHC Revolver"). The FHC Revolver
has a
borrowing limit of $52,000 and requires a borrowing base to
determine
availability under the limit. The borrowing base is determined
monthly based
upon specified percentages of FHC's accounts receivable,
inventories and the
appraised value of equipment and real property. The FHC Revolver
generally
bears interest at a base rate of 1 1/2% over the greater of (i)
Citibank New
York's base rate, or (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1 1/2% for
domestic
borrowings and at 2 1/2% over Citibank London's base rate for
foreign
borrowings. The Restated Credit Agreement was further amended on
February
21, 1997 to permit the Simmonds Acquisition. Terms modified by the
February
21, 1997 amendment included a provision in which the interest rate
on the FHC
Revolver will increase by 1/4% on each of September 30, 1997 and
December 31,
1997, in the event that the Restated Credit Agreement is not
restructured or
refinanced by such dates. FHC's Revolver is subject to a non-use
commitment
fee of 1/2% on the average unused availability; and outstanding
letters of
credit are subject to fees of 2 3/4% per annum.
The Restated Credit Agreement requires FHC to comply with
certain
financial and non-financial loan covenants, including maintaining
a minimum
net worth of $150,000 and maintaining certain interest and fixed
charge
coverage ratios at the end of each Fiscal Quarter. Additionally,
the
Restated Credit Agreement restricts the FHC's annual capital
expenditures to
$12,000. Substantially all of FHC's assets are pledged as
collateral under
the Restated Credit Agreement. At March 30, 1997, FHC was in
compliance with
all the covenants under the Restated Credit Agreement. FHC may
transfer
available cash as dividends to the Company.
On July 1, 1996 and again on December 12, 1996, Banner amended
its
credit agreement (the "Banner Credit Agreement"), which provides
Banner and
its subsidiaries with funds for working capital and potential
acquisitions.
The facilities under the Banner Credit Agreement consist of (i) a
$55,000
term loan, (ii) a $71,000 revolving credit facility, both of which
initially
bear interest at prime plus 1 1/4% or London Interbank Offered Rate
("LIBOR")
plus 2 1/2%, and require that loans made to Banner do not exceed a
defined
borrowing base, which is based upon a percentage of inventories and
accounts
receivable, (iii) a $30,000 seven-year term loan ("Tranche B
Loan"), which
bears interest at Prime plus 1 3/4% or LIBOR plus 3%, and (iv) a
$40,000 six-
year term loan ("Tranche C Loan"), which initially bears interest
at prime
plus 1 1/2% or LIBOR 2 3/4%. Banner's term loans require certain
semiannual
loan payments. Interest rates on Banner's borrowings, whether
computed at
the prime rate or LIBOR, may increase by 1/4% or decrease by up to
1% based
upon certain performance criteria. Banner's performance level
resulted in
borrowings under the $55,000 term loan and the $71,000 revolving
credit
facility being at an interest rate of prime plus 1% and LIBOR plus
2 1/4% for
the quarter ended March 30, 1997. Banner's revolving credit
facility is
subject to a non-use fee of 1/2% of the unused availability.
Substantially
all of Banner's assets are pledged as collateral under the Banner
Credit
Agreement.
The Banner Credit Agreement requires quarterly compliance with
various
financial and non-financial loan covenants, including maintenance
of minimum
net worth, and minimum ratios of interest coverage, fixed charge
coverage,
and debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization.
Banner also has certain limitations on the incurrence of additional
debt. As
of March 30, 1997, Banner was in compliance with all covenants
under the
Banner Credit Agreement.
Banner has several interest rate hedge agreements ("Hedge
Agreements")
to manage its exposure to increases in interest rates on its
variable rate
debt. The Hedge Agreements provide interest rate protection on
$60,000 of
debt through September 2000, by providing a cap of 7% if the 90-day
LIBOR
rate exceeds 7%. If the 90-day LIBOR rate drops below 5%, Banner
will be
required to pay a floor rate of approximately 6%.
In November 1996, Banner entered into an additional hedge
agreement
("Additional Hedge Agreement") with one of its major lenders to
provide
interest rate protection on $20,000 of debt for a period of three
years.
Effectively, the Additional Hedge Agreement provides for a cap of
7 1/4% if
the 90-day LIBOR exceeds 7 1/4%. If the 90-day LIBOR drops below
5%, Banner
will be required to pay interest at a floor rate of approximately
6%. No
cash outlay was required to obtain the Additional Hedge Agreement
as the cost
of the cap was offset by the sale of the floor.
Note 10 - Minority Interests in Consolidated Subsidiaries
Included in the Company's $65,735 of minority interest at
March 30,
1997, is $61,336 representing approximately 40.7% of Banner's
common stock
effectively outstanding on a consolidated basis.
Note 11 - Dividends Paid to Parent
During the nine months ended March 30, 1997 and March 31,
1996, the
Company paid cash dividends of $10,000 and $10,000, respectively,
to TFC.
Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies
Government Claims
- -----------------
The Corporate Administrative Contracting Officer (the "ACO"),
based upon
the advice of the United States Defense Contract Audit Agency, has
made a
determination that FII did not comply with Federal Acquisition
Regulations
and Cost Accounting Standards in accounting for (i) the 1985
reversion to FII
of certain assets of terminated defined benefit pension plans, and
(ii)
pension costs upon the closing of segments of FII's business. The
ACO has
directed FII to prepare cost impact proposals relating to such plan
terminations and segment closings and, following receipt of such
cost impact
proposals, may seek adjustments to contract prices. The ACO
alleges that
substantial amounts will be due if such adjustments are made. The
Company
believes it has properly accounted for the asset reversions in
accordance
with applicable accounting standards. The Company has held
discussions with
the government to attempt to resolve these pension accounting
issues.
Environmental Matters
- ---------------------
The Company and other aerospace fastener and industrial
product
manufacturers are subject to stringent Federal, state and local
environmental
laws and regulations concerning, among other things, the discharge
of
materials into the environment and the generation, handling,
storage,
transportation and disposal of waste and hazardous materials. To
date, such
laws and regulations have not had a material effect on the
financial
condition, results of operations, or net cash flows of the Company,
although
the Company has expended, and can be expected to expend in the
future,
significant amounts for investigation of environmental conditions
and
installation of environmental control facilities, remediation of
environmental conditions and other similar matters, particularly in
the
Aerospace Fasteners segment.
In connection with its plans to dispose of certain real
estate, the
Company must investigate environmental conditions and may be
required to take
certain corrective action prior or pursuant to any such
disposition. In
addition, management has identified several areas of potential
contamination
at or from other facilities owned, or previously owned, by the
Company, that
may require the Company either to take corrective action or to
contribute to
a clean-up. The Company is also a defendant in certain lawsuits
and
proceedings seeking to require the Company to pay for investigation
or
remediation of environmental matters and has been alleged to be a
potentially
responsible party at various "Superfund" sites. Management of the
Company
believes that it has recorded adequate reserves in its financial
statements
to complete such investigation and take any necessary corrective
actions or
make any necessary contributions. No amounts have been recorded as
due from
third parties, including insurers, or set off against, any
liability of the
Company, unless such parties are contractually obligated to
contribute and
are not disputing such liability.
As of March 30, 1997, the consolidated total recorded
liabilities of the
Company for environmental matters approximated $9,059, which
represented the
estimated probable exposures for these matters. It is reasonably
possible
that the Company's total exposure for these matters could be
approximately
$16,890.
Other Matters
- -------------
The Company is involved in various other claims and lawsuits
incidental
to its business, some of which involve substantial amounts. The
Company,
either on its own or through its insurance carriers, is contesting
these
matters.
In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of the
legal
proceedings, including those discussed above, will not have a
material
adverse effect on the financial condition, or future results of
operations or
net cash flows of the Company.<PAGE>

MANAGEMENT'S NARRATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ------------------------------------------------------------
RHI Holdings, Inc. (the "Company"), formerly known as Rexnord
Holdings
Inc., is essentially a holding company incorporated in the State of
Delaware.
It has two operating subsidiaries, Fairchild Holding Corporation
("FHC") and
Banner Aerospace, Inc. ("Banner"). The Company is a wholly-owned
subsidiary
of The Fairchild Corporation ("TFC"). The Company also holds a
significant
equity interest in Shared Technologies Fairchild Inc., ("STFI") and
Nacanco
Paketleme ("Nacanco").
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
Certain statements in the financial discussion and analysis by
management contain "forward-looking" information that involves risk
and
uncertainty, including current trend information, projections for
deliveries,
backlog, and other trend projections. Actual future results may
differ
materially depending on a variety of factors, including product
demand;
performance issues with key suppliers; customer satisfaction and
qualification issues; labor disputes; governmental export and
import
policies; worldwide political stability and economic growth; and
legal
proceedings.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On January 16, 1997, Banner, through its subsidiary, Dallas
Aerospace,
Inc., consummated the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding stock
of PB
Herndon Company ("PB Herndon") for approximately $14.7 million. In
addition,
Banner paid approximately $1.3 million to repay certain loans of PB
Herndon.
Banner recorded approximately $4.5 million of goodwill as a result
of this
acquisition. Banner financed this transaction by borrowing $16.0
million
from RHI. PB Herndon is a distributor of aerospace fasteners and
other
aerospace related components.
On February 4, 1997, Banner, through its subsidiary,
Professional
Aviation Associates, acquired the assets of Air Marine and Air
Marine
Accessories for $1.2 million. Banner recorded approximately $.6
million in
goodwill as a result of this acquisition.
On February 26, 1997, the Company completed a transaction
pursuant to
which the Company acquired from Mines de Kali Sainte-Therese S.A.
("KST")
common shares and convertible debt representing an 84.2% interest,
on a fully
diluted basis, of Simmonds S.A. ("Simmonds"), for approximately
$21.0
million. Additionally, the Company paid approximately $14.0
million to repay
certain loans of Simmonds. The Company has initiated a tender
offer to
purchase the remaining shares of common stock and convertible debt
of
Simmonds, held by the public (together with the purchase from KST
and the
repayment of debt, the "Simmonds Acquisition"). Management
estimates that
the total cost of the Simmonds Acquisition, including debt assumed,
will be
approximately $56.5 million. The Company recorded approximately
$15.8
million in goodwill as a result of this acquisition. The Company
funded the
Simmonds Acquisition with available cash and borrowings. Simmonds
is one of
Europe's leading manufacturers and distributors of aerospace and
automotive
fasteners.
FISCAL 1996 SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS
- ------------------------------------
The Company, TFC and Fairchild Industries, Inc. ("FII"), the
Company's
former subsidiary, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
dated as of
November 9, 1995 (as amended, the "Merger Agreement") with Shared
Technologies Inc. ("STI"). On March 13, 1996, in accordance with
the Merger
Agreement, STI succeeded to the telecommunications systems and
services
business operated by the Company's Fairchild Communications
Services Company
("FCSC").
The transaction was effected by a Merger of FII with and into
STI (the
"Merger") with the surviving company renamed STFI. Prior to the
Merger, FII
transferred all of its assets to, and all of its liabilities were
assumed by
FHC, except for the assets and liabilities of FCSC, and $223.5
million of the
FII's existing debt and preferred stock. As a result of the
Merger, the
Company received shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock of
STFI,
representing approximately a 41% ownership interest in STFI.
On February 22, 1996, pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement
dated
January 26, 1996, the Company, through its subsidiaries, completed
the sale
of certain assets, liabilities and the business of the D-M-E
Company ("DME")
to Cincinnati Milacron Inc. ("CMI"), for a sales price of
approximately
$244.3 million, as adjusted. The sales price consisted of $74.0
million in
cash, and two 8% promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount
of $170.3
million (together, the "8% CMI Notes"). On July 29, 1996, CMI paid
in full
the 8% CMI Notes.
On January 27, 1996, FII completed the sale of Fairchild Data
Corporation ("Data") to SSE Telecom, Inc. ("SSE") for book value of
approximately $4.4 million and 100,000 shares of SSE's common stock
valued at
$9.0625 per share, or $.9 million, at January 26, 1996, and
warrants to
purchase an additional 50,000 shares of SSE's common stock at
$11.09 per
share.
Accordingly, DME and Data have been accounted for as
discontinued
operations. The combined net sales of DME and Data totaled $16.8
million
and $108.1 million for the third quarter and first nine months of
Fiscal
1996, respectively. Net earnings from discontinued operations was
$1.8
million in the third quarter of Fiscal 1996 and $9.1 million for
the nine
months ended March 31, 1996.
Effective February 25, 1996, the Company completed the
transfer of Harco
to Banner in exchange for 5,386,477 shares of Banner common stock.
The
exchange has increased the Company's ownership of Banner common
stock from
approximately 47.2% to 59.3%, resulting in the Company becoming the
majority
shareholder of Banner. Accordingly, the Company consolidated
Banner on
February 25, 1996. Banner is a leading international supplier to
the
aerospace industry as a distributor, providing a wide range of
aircraft parts
and related support services.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company currently operates in three principal business
segments:
Aerospace Fasteners, Aerospace Distribution (Banner) and Technology
Products
(formerly Industrial Products). In the nine months ended March 30,
1996, the
Company consolidated pre March 13, 1996 operating results from the
Communications Services segment, and, effective February 25, 1996,
began to
consolidate the operating results of the Aerospace Distribution
segment. The
following table illustrates the historical sales and operating
income of the
Company's continuing operations for the three and nine month
periods ended
March 30, 1997 and March 30, 1996.<PAGE>

Consolidated Results
- --------------------
Sales of $190.5 million for the third quarter and $496.0
million for the
nine months ended March 30, 1997, improved by $53.5 million, or
39.1%, and
$148.5 million, or 42.7%, over comparable periods of the prior
year.
Operating income increased $6.4 million in the third quarter and
$7.2 million
in the Fiscal 1997 nine-month period, compared to operating income
for the
same periods in Fiscal 1996. The improvements reflected strong
performance
increases contributed by the Aerospace Fasteners and Aerospace
Distribution
segments reflecting the recent turnaround of the commercial
aerospace
industry. The first nine months of Fiscal 1997 include sales and
operating
income from the Aerospace Distribution segment, offset partially by
the
exclusion of sales and operating income from the Communications
Services
segment which was unconsolidated effective March 13, 1996, as a
result of the
Merger into STI. (See discussion above).
Aerospace Fasteners
- -------------------
Sales in the Aerospace Fasteners segment increased $6.2
million or
10.7%, in the third quarter, and $9.7 million, or 5.9%, in the
Fiscal 1997
nine-month period, compared to the corresponding Fiscal 1996
periods,
reflecting growth within the commercial aerospace industry. New
orders have
been strong in recent months, resulting in a backlog of $158.4
million at
March 30, 1997, up from $109.9 million at June 30, 1996. On
February 26,
1997, the Company purchased an 84.2% interest in Simmonds and began
consolidating the results of Simmonds. The Harco division was
transferred to
the Aerospace Distribution segment on February 25, 1996. Excluding
Simmonds
sales in the first nine months of Fiscal 1997, and Harco's sales in
the first
nine months of Fiscal 1996, sales improved 17.3% in the Fiscal 1997
nine-
month period.
Operating income in the Aerospace Fasteners segment increased
$2.7
million in the third quarter and $7.9 million in the Fiscal 1997
nine-month
period, compared to the Fiscal 1996 periods. The prior year nine
month
period was adversely affected by $1.2 million in restructuring
charges,
resulting from severance pay provided to employees and the closing
of a small
subsidiary. Excluding Simmonds, results in the current year nine
months, and
Harco's results and restructuring charges in the prior year nine
months,
operating income improved by $9.1 million in the Fiscal 1997
nine-month
period. Management intends to continue to implement productivity
improvements and reduce costs.
Aerospace Distribution
- ----------------------
The Aerospace Distribution segment continued its record growth
reporting
sales of $113.7 million in the third quarter and $294.8 million for
the nine-
month period ended March 30, 1997, reflecting the recent resurgence
of the
commercial aerospace industry. Operating income was $9.1 million
in the
third quarter and $21.1 million for the nine-month period ended
March 30,
1997. The prior year periods include results from this segment
only for
five weeks of operations which began on February 25, 1996, when the
Company
acquired a majority interest in Banner.
Since February 25, 1996, Harco's results were reported as part
of the
Aerospace Distribution segment. Previously, Harco's results were
reported as
part of the Aerospace Fasteners segment.
Technology Products
- -------------------
Sales in the Technology Products segment, which primarily
includes
Fairchild Technologies ("FT"), decreased $1.3 million in the third
quarter
and $19.4 million in the first nine months of Fiscal 1997, compared
to the
Fiscal 1996 periods. The decrease in the current nine-month
period is
primarily attributable to the temporary slowdown in the growth of
DRAM chip
demand which negatively affected FT's semiconductor production
equipment
line. However, this is expected to be a temporary decrease, as
evidenced by
several multimillion dollar orders recently received and which are
scheduled
to be shipped over the next six months. During the first nine
months of
Fiscal 1997, FT received new orders totaling approximately $64.0
million.
The sales decrease in the current third quarter period was
partially offset
from record growth achieved by the Fairchild Scandinavian
Bellyloading
Company ("SBC"), a start-up company whose sales increased by $2.6
million, or
428%, compared to the prior year third quarter.
FT reported operating income of $.6 million in the third
quarter and an
operating loss of $3.2 million for the nine months ended March 30,
1997,
which was recorded in the Technology Products segment. FT's
nine-month
period loss was partially due to the lower level of sales, but also
due to
expansion of the sales staff into the Pacific Rim. SBC had a
nine-month
operating income of $.3 million, a $1.2 million improvement over
the prior
year nine month loss, reflecting the record growth mentioned above.
The
Technology Products segment reported an operating loss of $.2
million in the
Fiscal 1996 third quarter and operating income of $2.0 million in
the Fiscal
1996 nine months.
Communications Services
- -----------------------
As a result of the Merger of the Communications Services
segment into
STI on March 13, 1996, the Company is accounting for its current
investment
in STFI, the merged company, using the equity method. For the
three and nine
months ended March 31, 1996, this segment reported sales of $26.3
million and
$91.3 million, respectively, and operating profit of $4.8 million
and $14.5
million, respectively.
Other Expenses/Income
- ---------------------
Net interest expense decreased 7.2% in the third quarter and
38.6% in
the nine-month period ended March 30, 1997, compared to the prior
year
periods, due primarily to lower debt outstanding, as a result of
the sale of
DME and the Merger, and higher interest income earned on higher
weighted
average cash balances during the first nine months of Fiscal 1997.
Non-recurring income in the Fiscal 1996 periods includes a
$162.5
million nontaxable gain resulting from the Merger. Expenses
relating to
other potential transactions which did not take place partially
offset the
above gain.
In the first nine months of Fiscal 1997, the Company recorded
a tax
provision of $1.0 million on a pretax income of $3.9 million. A
tax benefit
of $2.6 million was recorded from the continuing operations loss,
excluding
the nontaxable non-recurring gain, incurred in the prior year's
nine months.
Earnings from discontinued operations, net, of $1.8 million in
the
Fiscal 1996 third quarter and $9.1 million for the nine months
ended March
30, 1996, include the earnings, net of tax, provided by DME and
Data.
The $61.3 million net gain on disposal of discontinued
operations
recorded in the prior year period resulted primarily from the sale
of DME.
The prior year's extraordinary items totaled $10.4 million,
net of
taxes, and resulted from the write-off of deferred fees and the
premium costs
associated with the early extinguishment of FII's senior notes and
bank debt.
The $2.9 million net earnings from continuing operations for
the nine
months ended March 30, 1997 was a $13.0 million improvement over
the Fiscal
1996 nine-month period $10.1 million net loss from continuing
operations,
excluding non-recurring income. The improvement resulted primarily
from: (i)
an $7.2 million increase in operating income, and (ii) a $10.3
million
decrease in net interest expense, partially offset by a $3.7
million increase
in the tax provision.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of March 30, 1997, the Company's current ratio was 2.17:1,
down from
2.13:1 at June 30, 1996.
Working capital at March 30, 1997, was $292.0 million, which
was $28.2
million lower than at June 30, 1996. The principal reasons for
this change
included a $15.1 million decrease in cash, a $170.4 million
decrease in notes
receivable, and a $30.1 million increase in accounts payable and
other
accrued liabilities. These decreases of working capital were
partially
offset by a $64.3 million increase in inventory, a $46.2 million
decrease in
current income taxes, a $29.5 million increase in accounts
receivable, a
$18.3 million increase in Prepaid and other current assets, a $11.4
million
increase in short-term investments, and a $17.7 million reduction
in short-
term notes payable.
The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand,
cash
generated from operations and borrowings under its credit
agreement. At
March 30, 1997, $69.1 million was available to be borrowed from the
Company's
credit agreements (see Note 9 in the notes to the condensed
consolidated
financial statements), of which $51.6 million is available only to
Banner.
The Company also expects to generate cash from the sale of
certain
assets and liquidation of investments. Net assets held for sale at
March 30,
1997, had a book value of $47.4 million and included two parcels of
