Portions of Proxy Statement for Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be
held on April 22, 1997: Part III
PART I
Item 1. BUSINESS
(a) General Development of Business
Wells-Gardner Electronics Corporation (the ``Company'') is an ISO
9001 certified video products corporation that designs, manufactures
and assembles color cathode ray tube (``CRT'') video monitors. The
Company sells video monitors to leading manufacturers of coin-operated
video games, lottery terminals, video slot machines, video walls,
leisure and fitness, INTRANET, media, automotive kiosks and other
display applications.
In 1996, the Company reported its first annual profit since 1992.
During 1996, the Company continued to aggressively invest in
engineering research and development. This investment resulted in the
introduction of 20 new products being released in the past two years
which accounted for over 72% of 1996 revenues. As a result of the
Company's continuously improving its quality, the Company passed its
1996 annual quality audit conducted by the ISO 9001 accreditation
agency. The Company continues to focus on improving the quality of
its products to achieve its goal of being the highest quality vendor
in each of the markets it serves. The Company was incorporated in
Illinois in 1925.
(b) Financial Information About Industry Segments
The information required on industry segments for the three fiscal
years ended December 31, 1996 is set forth in Exhibit 13 under the
caption ``Selected Financial Results and Corporate Information'' and
in Note 2 of ``Notes to Financial Statements,'' in the Company's
Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 1996,
and hereby incorporated herein by reference.
(c) Narrative Description of Business
(c) (i), (ii) and (iii)
PRODUCTS
The Company's primary business is the design, manufacture and
assembly of electronic components which consist of video color
monitors and the bonding of touch sensors to open frame monitors. The
image on a CRT display is produced by magnetically guiding an
interruptible stream of electrons against the back of a phosphorescent
screen. This stream of electrons scans a series of horizontal lines
from the top to the bottom of the screen. When the stream of
electrons strikes the back of the screen a bright area is produced and
when is interrupted, a dark area appears. In a medium-resolution
unit, the stream of electrons scans the screen in a series of 525
horizontal lines 30 times per second, whereas the series of light and
dark areas produced appears as a steady coherent image to the viewer.
High-resolution displays scan a greater number of lines at a greater
speed, thus producing a clearer image on the screen. CRT video
products accounted for approximately 99 percent of revenues in 1996,
98 percent of revenues in 1995 and 96 percent of revenues in 1994.
The Company offers a full line of video monitors, with CRT sizes
ranging from 3'' to 33'' with horizontal scan frequencies from 15kHz
to 35kHz. In addition to providing standardized products, the Company
also customizes electrical and mechanical applications to meet
specific customer requirements. The Company's line of color display
monitors have been redesigned over the past years for higher
performance and lower per unit cost. In 1996, the Company released 12
new voltage free products which allow the products to be plugged in
anywhere in the world.
The Company also optically bonds touch screen sensors to the face
of the monitors to allow the user of a CRT video monitor to interact
with a computer program by touching a video screen. Touch sensors are
mainly used in the electronic video gaming, video slot machine,
lottery terminal and kiosk applications.
The Company's sales are comprised of five main applications.
Amusement sales accounted for 49 percent of total revenues in 1996, 46
percent in 1995 and 53 percent in 1994. Gaming sales accounted for 17
percent of sales in 1996, 24 percent in 1995 and 33 percent in 1994.
Leisure and fitness sales accounted for 13 percent of sales in 1996,
14 percent in 1995 and 6 percent in 1994. Service sales accounted for
11 percent of sales in 1996, 8 percent in 1995 and 5 percent in 1994.
Data and display sales accounted for 10 percent of sales in 1996, 8
percent in 1995 and 3 percent in 1994.
MANUFACTURING AND ASSEMBLY
The Company's production activities consist primarily of wiring
printed circuit boards, assembling finished units (and to a limited
extent subassemblies), aligning, testing and optically bonding touch
sensors. The Company manufactures a limited range of electronic
components and therefore relies on outside sources for the majority of
the other required components. A limited number of sources are
available for such electronic components and the other raw materials.
Two sources supply the Company with almost all of the chassis
subassemblies for its two-dimensional color game monitors. Chassis
subassemblies are contracted off shore based on a design developed by
the Company. As the Company believes is characteristic of other
manufacturers in its industry, it has been confronted with long lead
times and cost increases.
MARKETING AND SALES
The Company sells products throughout the world. The Company's
products are sold primarily through James Industries, Inc., a sales
representative organization. This representation is currently
furnished under a Sales Representation Agreement (See Item 13. Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions). James Industries, Inc. is
headquartered in Inverness, Illinois and also utilizes the services of
regional sub-representative f irms. The Company maintains its own
internal sales staff primarily for sales of products not covered under
the Sales Representation Agreement, repair and service of its products
and to support its external sales representative organization.
(c) (iv) The Company is licensed on a non-exclusive basis under
certain patents owned by RCA Corporation, covering the technical and
electrical design of color display and video monitor chassis. Fees
under these licenses are based on the number of units shipped and
amounted to less than 0.3% of total 1996 revenue. Although certain of
these licenses may expire in the future, it has been the practice of
the Company to renew such licenses on substantially the same terms.
However, failure of the Company to obtain renewal of any of these
licenses could have a materially adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.
(c) (v) The Company's business is generally not seasonal.
(c) (vi) The Company has no unique or unusual practices relating
to working capital items.
(c) (vii) The Company's largest customer accounted for total
revenues of 18%, 15% and 19% in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
(c) (viii) The Company's 1996 year-end backlog was approximately
32,000 monitors representing approximately 4 months sales. It is the
Company's experience that well over 90 percent of backlog results in
revenue recognition.
(c) (ix) No material portion of the Company's business is subject
to re-negotiation of profits or termination of contracts or
subcontracts at the election of the Government.
(c) (x) The Company encounters intense competition from many
domestic and foreign manufacturers. Due to the nature of its business
and the absence of reliable industry statistics, the Company cannot
estimate its position in relation to its competitors. However, the
Company recognizes that some competitors have greater financial and
personnel resources, handle more extensive lines of products, operate
larger facilities and price some products more competitively than the
Company. Although the Company believes that the prices of its
products are competitive, it endeavors to meet competition primarily
through the quality of its product line, service and delivery
reliability and new product innovations.
(c) (xi) During 1996, the Company spent approximately $1,701,000
for product engineering, research and development costs, compared to
$1,506,000 in 1995 and $1,393,000 in 1994.
(c) (xii) Compliance with federal, state and local provisions which
have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of materials
into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the
environment, has no material effect upon the capital expenditures,
earnings and competitive position of the Company.
(c) (xiii) At December 31, 1996, the Company employed approximately
180 persons. The Company believes its relationship with its employees
is satisfactory.
(d) Export sales were 13 percent of sales in 1996, 20 percent in
1995 and 20 percent in 1994.
Item 2. PROPERTIES
The Company's plant, which is owned by the Company, is located at
2701 North Kildare Avenue in Chicago, Illinois. It has approximately
207,000 square feet of floor space. Not less than 100,000 of the
207,000 square feet of the plant are at any time dedicated to
production. Offices for engineering, sales and administration are
also located at that facility. The plant is in good condition, is
well maintained, and currently has excess production capacity. In
1996, the plant operated at an average 55% capacity. The plant is not
subject to any material encumbrance. In 1995, the Company sold
approximately 63,000 square feet of excess building capacity.
