ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Auto-Graphics, Inc. provides software products and processing services to
information and database publishers. These products and services are used to
create, maintain and distribute information databases through printed and/or
electronic reference products. Electronic products include Compact Disc (CD-
ROM) and Client/Server software systems(Internet/Web).
The Company provides state and local government customers with products and
outsourced services to maintain, publish and distribute bibliographic
databases of library holdings and to manage interlibrary loan systems.
Traditional commercial and corporate publishers use the Company's services to
produce and distribute print and electronic products such as dictionaries,
encyclopedias, Bibles, price catalogs and other reference works.
In recent years, Auto-Graphics has made a major investment in the development
of online client/server software products and client-shared Internet/Web
services. In 1993, the Company launched the development of an umbrella
concept called Impact/ONLINE[tm] for Internet distribution services. This
capability has been successfully applied to a range of applications including
the outsourcing by several statewide library consortia to Auto-Graphics of
complete system design, development, management, maintenance and operation of
a web site for each customer. During the last eighteen months, the Company
has received orders for five statewide and three regional Impact/ONLINE[tm]
systems comprising over 1,500 libraries.
The Company's Impact/ONLINE[tm] products include:
Impact/ONLINE WebPAC[tm] enables patrons, directly from home, school and office
to search a database over the Internet using any Web Browser such as Netscape
Navigator or Microsoft Explorer.
Impact/ONLINE ILL[tm] automates initiation, tracking and management of
interlibrary borrowing and lending.
Impact/ONLINE CAT[tm] for creating and maintaining the bibliographic database.
Impact/NET[tm] for configuring, installing and managing Internet resources.
Impact/ACCESS[tm] for patron access to licensed commercial databases.
Impact/SLims[tm], a small library information management system, which operates
on a personal computer and integrates patron access catalog, circulation
control and inventory management.
The Company's software products and processing services continue to leverage
technology and experience gained over more than 45 years of service to
publishers most of whom continue to distribute information via print and CD-
ROM media. Auto-Graphics provides standard and custom products and services
for database management, electronic composition and CD-ROM search and
retrieval. These software products include:
SGML Smart Editor System(SES) provides publishers with full editorial
capabilities to create and maintain data in SGML format.
Impact[tm]/CD-ROM is a system to provide search and retrieval capabilities for
CD-ROMs.
Impact[tm]/SGML upgrades CD products to Windows and operates on SGML formatted
data files.
A specialized database service for the wholesale heating, ventilation, air
conditioning and refrigeration(HVACR) industry is provided in conjunction with
Datacat, Inc., which is 50 percent owned by Auto-Graphics. The Company is a
supplier of software and production services to Datacat for HVACR parts
catalogs. <F1> (See Note 1 of "Notes to Financial Statements.")
Company Background
The Company was formed in 1950 and incorporated in 1960 in the state of
California. No single customer represents more than 10% of net sales.
Management believes that the loss of any single customer or vendor would
not have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company. Hardware
sales are not material to the Company's business, representing less than 10%
of sales, and are not considered important to the future of the Company.
Backlog cannot be stated in a useful manner, as contracts are normally
statements of specifications and unit prices rather than total sales volume.
The software and computerized database processing services business is highly
competitive. There are no definitive market share statistics available. The
Company first introduced computerized database services in 1964, and believes
that it has been offering such services longer than any of its existing
competitors. Many competitors are smaller and local in character, but some
are larger and national with greater financial resources than the Company.
Contracts for computerized database publishing services and the purchase/lease
of equipment are typically awarded according to the results of market pricing,
competitive bidding, technical capability and past performance.
Marketing Offices/Employees
The Company has marketing representatives and service centers located in
California, Connecticut, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Missouri, and
New Jersey. The Company currently employs approximately 120 persons.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company leases its corporate office and production facilities constituting
approximately 29,000 square feet located at 3201 Temple Avenue, Pomona,
California 91768. The facility has been custom designed for the Company's
purposes, is fully utilized and should be adequate for the Company's needs
for the foreseeable future. The facility is currently leased to the Company
through June 1996 under the first of two five-year renewal options. <F6> (See
Note 6 of "Notes to Financial Statements" and Item 13. "Certain Relationships
and Related Transactions.")

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General and Future Business Trends
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has a revolving credit agreement with a bank, under which
borrowings are secured by accounts receivable, whereby the Company may
borrow against its eligible accounts receivable up to a maximum of $1,000,000
($1,000,000 available at December 31, 1995). Management believes that the
current line of credit, which is renewed annually in May, will again be
renewed in 1996, and is sufficient to handle cyclical working capital needs.
<F2> (See Note 2 of "Notes to Financial Statements.")
The Company also has a capital line of credit agreement with the bank
providing for maximum borrowings of $2,250,000 ($4,000 available at
December 31, 1995). The capital line of credit may be used for the purchase
of equipment and software, and financing of up to $500,000 in internal
software development costs. The bank line of credit is renewed annually in
May, and management believes that the current line of credit will again be
renewed in 1996. Management does not currently believe that increased credit
will be required to finance planned capital expenditures in 1996 which are
estimated at $1,000,000, to be used to upgrade computers, production equipment
and for software development. <F3> (See Note 3 of "Notes to Financial
Statements.")
In 1993, the Company initiated several major new product (software)
development programs. Estimated investments in the Company's SGML Smart Editor
System and Impact[tm]/SGML CD-ROM may exceed $500,000 and enhance
competitiveness of the product with new features. In addition, the Company
announced and initiated the development of the next generation of the
Impact[tm] product line called Impact/ONLINE[tm]. Impact/ONLINE[tm] has been
released and now includes modules for public access catalogs, online
cataloging, interlibrary loan, and access via Internet to other databases.
The estimated investment in Impact/ONLINE[tm] may total $1,000,000. Funding
for these investments is expected to be provided by a combination of
internally generated funds, bank financing, and possibly additional outside
capital investment.
Results of Operations
1995 net sales increased $394,000 to $9,559,000. The increase in sales was
due to market acceptance of the Company's new products: SGML Smart Editor
System, Impact[tm]/SGML CD-ROM and Impact/ONLINE[tm] products. Sales prices
remained flat and in some cases declined due to competitive pressures in some
markets. Gross margins continued to improve to 38.2% in 1995, up from 32.3%
in 1994 due to the new products, continuing cost reduction measures and
productivity gains. The Company's focus on improving marketing and sales
resulted in higher selling expenses up $596,000 for additional sales
management and sales personnel, promotional and administrative expenses.
1995 net income improved to $194,000 a 23% increase and earnings per share
improved 39% to $0.16 due partially to stock repurchases. Working capital
declined in 1995 due to higher accounts payable at year-end and higher than
average customer deposits. Cash flow from operations improved to $1,623,000
in 1995, up 84% from $881,000 in 1994. Improvements in liquidity and reduced
leverage are expected in 1996.
1996 net sales revenues (excluding equipment) are expected to improve due to
the Company's new products. The favorable mix of expected product sales,
implemented cost reduction measures and productivity improvements should
result in higher earnings and improved cash flow from operations in 1996.
Impact of Inflation
Historical dollar accounting does not reflect changing costs for operations,
the future cost for expansion and the changing purchasing power of the dollar.
Inflation generally impacts the Company in a negative manner, as prices
cannot be adjusted quickly due to the contract nature of the business, while
costs of personnel, materials and other purchases tend to escalate more
rapidly. However, inflation is not anticipated to have a material effect on
the Company's business in the near future.
Adopted and Pending Financial Accounting Standards
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of, which the
Company adopted beginning in 1995. The standard establishes principles of
financial accounting and reporting for situations where information indicates
that a company might be unable to recover, through future operations or sale,
the carrying amount of long-lived assets, identifiable intangibles, and
goodwill related to those assets. With the adoption of this Standard, the
Company is required to review long-lived assets, identifiable intangibles,
and related goodwill to determine whether any indicators of impairment are
present and, if present to recognize an impairment loss based on the excess
of the carrying amount of the assets over their fair market value. <F1> See
Note 1 of "Notes to Financial Statements."

product promotion. As a percentage of sales, SG&A increased to 27.6% in 1994
from 24.7% in 1993.
Other Income reflects interest income, royalties, and cost recovery from

</TABLE>
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation commences in the year the asset is placed in and/or available for
service or sale based on the half-year convention method. Depreciation is
based on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset
or revenue ratio method. Depreciation and amortization was $1,002,000 in 1995
($961,000 in 1994 and $975,000 in 1993). The following estimated useful
lives are generally observed for the respective asset categories:
Equipment - 5 to 15 years
Computer software - 5 to 7 years (see below)
Furniture and fixtures - 5 to 10 years
Leasehold improvements - the lesser of 5 to 15 years or the lease term
Certain costs incurred related to the development and purchase of computer
software are capitalized and amortized in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 86. Amortization is based on a ratio of
current and future revenues (the ratio method). In 1995, $964,000 was
capitalized ($517,000 in 1994 and $284,000 in 1993), of which $124,000 was
purchased software and $840,000 was the cost of internally developed software.
Equipment and leasehold improvements include computer software with an
unamortized balance of approximately $2,125,000 at December 31, 1995 and
approximately $1,548,000 in 1994. Amortization of computer software was
approximately $387,000 in 1995, $337,000 in 1994, and $284,000 in 1993.
Other Assets
Investment in Datacat, Inc.
In 1990, the Company acquired a 50% interest in Datacat, Inc. Datacat was
formed to market a new technology developed by the Company for the production
of parts catalogs for the wholesale heating, ventilation and air conditioning,
and refrigeration (HVACR) industry. The investment has been accounted for
using the equity method wherein equity in the losses of Datacat have been
offset against investments in and advances to Datacat and the balance reduced
to zero. Losses in excess of investments and advances of approximately
$125,000 have not been recognized and will be applied to subsequent earnings
as they are realized. The Company has not guaranteed the obligations of
Datacat, and is not presently obligated to provide any further financial
support to Datacat beyond that already provided.
Prepaid Database Assets
Certain non-recurring incremental and direct production costs are incurred to
initially implement new computerized databases for customers. These costs
are associated with providing billable repetitive services and/or projects
for specific customers over contract periods exceeding one year. The costs
are stated at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value and are
charged to cost of sales over the contract period which services will be
provided, generally three to six years. Management believes it is probable
that these costs will be recovered from related future revenues. The current
portion of estimated Prepaid Database Assets ($69,000 in 1995, $69,000 in
1994, and $48,000 in 1993) is included in Unbilled Production Costs.
<TABLE>
The following is a summary of the long-term portion of the prepaid
database costs for the three years ended December 31, 1995:
<CAPTION>

1993: 213,000 (48,000) 165,000
</TABLE>
Long-Lived Assets
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets, which the Company adopted beginning of 1995. The Standard
requires the Company to review the carrying amount of long-lived assets,
identifiable intangibles, and related goodwill to determine whether any
indicators of impairment are present. At December 31, 1995 the Company's
review of it's long-lived assets showed no indications of loss or impairment
and, therefore, has not had a material effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.
Income Recognition
Revenues are recognized as services are rendered or when finished goods are
shipped to customers. Certain future software support costs are accrued in
accordance with AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 91-1. The financial
statements are prepared using management estimates and assumptions in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and AICPA Statement
of Position (SOP) 94-6.
Net Income Per Share
Per share calculations are based on the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding during each year.
<F2>
2. Note Payable to Bank.
The Company has a revolving credit agreement under which borrowings are
secured by accounts receivable, whereby the Company may borrow against its
eligible accounts receivable up to a maximum of $1,000,000 ($1,000,000
available at December 31, 1995) with interest at .5% above the bank prime
rate (9.0% at December 31, 1995). The credit facility is renewable annually
in May. There was no outstanding balance at December 31, 1995 or
December 31, 1994. During the year ended December 31, 1995, the approximate
average borrowings outstanding were $241,000 ($386,000 in 1994), the
approximate weighted average interest rate was 9.3% (7.9% in 1994, and the
maximum amount of month-end borrowings outstanding was $675,000 ($700,000 in
1994). The averages were computed based on the borrowings outstanding and
the applicable interest rate at the end of each month. There are no
compensating balance requirements, commitment fees or note guarantors. This
agreement contains the same loan covenants as the equipment line of credit
note payable. At December 31, 1995, the Company was in compliance with its
loan covenants.

</TABLE>
The capital line of credit note payable at December 31, 1995 provides for
maximum borrowings of $2,250,000 for the purchase of equipment and software,
and financing of up to $500,000 in internal software development costs. The
unused portion ($4,000 at December 31, 1995) of the capital line of credit is
subject to renewal of the capital line of credit facility annually in May.
Among other requirements, the capital line of credit note payable requires
the Company to maintain minimum ratios of current assets to current
liabilities, debt to equity and cash flow to debt service, minimum working
capital and equity amounts, limits capital expenditures and capital lease
obligations and prohibits the payment of cash dividends. There are no
commitment fees, compensating balance requirements or note guarantors. At
December 31, 1995, the Company was in compliance with its loan covenants.
In June, 1995, the Company entered into a stock repurchase agreement with a
former employee and officer of the Company, whereby the Company agreed to
purchase and retire, in 1995, 115,000 of 141,000 shares of Company stock
owned by the stockholder. The total transaction cost of $230,000 will be
paid in four annual installments beginning in 1995 plus interest of 5.5% per
annum ($65,000 paid in June 1995, and $55,000 to be paid in June 1996, 1997
and 1998).
