Note C. NOTE RECEIVABLERELATED PARTY
On August 29, 2000, the Company made a loan to an executive officer which has been collateralized by his personal residence. The loan was part of the executive officers overall compensation package and was to be forgiven, providing certain conditions were met, over a four year period. During 2001, the executive officer was terminated and the note became current at that time. The terms of the note have subsequently been amended such that the note, in the amount of $110,000, is now due on Jan 28, 2005, or at such time that the residence is sold, whichever occurs first.

Note E. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share amounts are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted per share amounts assume exercise of all potential common stock instruments unless the effect is to reduce the loss or increase the income per common share.
For the periods presented, there were no items which changed net income as presented in the consolidated statements of income and the amounts used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share. The following is information about the computation of weighted-average shares utilized in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share.

As of December 31, 2002, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $16,900,000 available to reduce future Federal taxable income, which expire in 2005 through 2011.
The decrease in the valuation allowance of $7,277,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2002 was to recognize deferred tax assets at amounts considered by management more likely than not to be realized.
ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following is managements discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected the Companys financial position and operating results. Certain statements under this caption may constitute forward-looking statements. See Part II Other Information.
(a) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended December 31, 2002, compared to Three Months Ended December 31, 2001.
Revenues. In the past several years, the Company has focused on increasing the amount of value-added products it provides to the marketplace, i.e., products where additional processing is performed on basic nitinol wire, strip, or tube before it is shipped to the customer. Currently, medical device applications represent some of the best opportunities for increasing the amount of value-added business. The kink-resistant and self-expanding properties of nitinol have made peripheral stenting an area of special interest, and stent components manufactured for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA) in particular have become a significant driver of the Companys revenue. However, because the market for stent components is very dynamic and rapidly changing, the Company has found it difficult to accurately forecast demand for its stent components. Delays in product launches, uncertain timing on regulatory approvals, inventory adjustments by our customers, market share shifts between competing stent platforms and the introduction of next-generation products have all contributed to the variability in revenue generated by shipments of medical stent components.
8
Revenues increased 13% to $9,395,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2003 from $8,349,000 during the same period in fiscal 2002, an increase of $1,046,000. Shipments of wire-based medical stent components increased approximately $900,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2003 and tube-based medical stent components also increased $400,000 during the same period. Looking forward to the balance of fiscal 2003, the Company anticipates that overall AAA stent component activity will show a significant increase over the fiscal 2002 level based on information received from customers concerning the balance of fiscal 2003.
Other medical device component shipments, including products utilized in minimally invasive surgery and guidewire applications, increased approximately $200,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2003 from the second quarter of fiscal 2002.
Revenues from sales of arch wire and high pressure sealing plugs increased approximately $250,000 during the second quarter of fiscal 2003.
These revenue increases were partially offset by a decrease of approximately $600,000 in shipments of superelastic tube, utilized in coronary applications and for other peripheral stenting, and a decrease of $100,000 in superelastic wire, utilized in various industrial applications.
Costs and Expenses. Manufacturing costs (including costs associated with research and development revenues) increased to $6,122,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2002 from $4,451,000 during the same three-month period in fiscal 2002. This increase of $1,671,000, or 38%, is primarily the result of two factors. The Company experienced poor manufacturing yields in the second quarter of fiscal 2003 on both its wire-based and tube-based AAA stent components. The wire-based yield issues relate primarily to ramp-up issues on this relatively new product area. The tube-based yield issues result from process yield variabilities. The other factor leading to the increase in manufacturing costs was the reduction in shipments of higher margin superelastic tube in the second quarter of fiscal 2003 versus the second quarter in fiscal 2002.
Because of the foregoing, the Companys gross margin from sales decreased to 35% for the three month period ended December 31, 2002, from 47% in the comparable period in fiscal 2002. The Company anticipates that improvements in manufacturing yields will result in an increase in the gross margin from sales during the balance of fiscal 2003.
General, selling and administrative expenses (including depreciation and amortization) decreased $194,000, or 7%, to $2,506,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2002, as compared to $2,700,000 during the same period of fiscal 2002. This decrease is primarily due to a reduction in corporate staffing, legal and severance costs. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $599,000 relating to its own internal products as well as the development of future products for the three months ended December 31, 2002 as compared to $656,000 incurred during the same period of fiscal 2002. Other expense decreased from $33,000 in the second quarter of fiscal year 2002 to $18,000 in the comparable period in fiscal year 2003, due primarily to an increase in interest income associated with a higher cash balance along with a reduction in interest expense associated with a reduced level of borrowing.
The Company recorded a benefit for income taxes of $6,968,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2003 versus a provision for income taxes of $152,000 for the same period in fiscal 2002. This change is due primarily to a decrease in the deferred tax valuation allowance as of December 31, 2002 to recognize deferred tax assets at amounts considered by management, more likely than not, to be realized.
Net Income. Primarily due to the federal tax benefit, the Companys net income increased by $6,704,000, to $7,717,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2003 compared to a net income of $1,013,000 for the same period in fiscal 2002. Excluding the recognition of the deferred tax asset, net income for the three month period ended December 31, 2002 was $695,000, compared to $1,013,000 for the three month period ended December 31, 2001.
Six Months Ended December 31, 2002, compared to Six Months Ended December 31, 2001.
Revenues. Revenues increased 13% to $18,291,000 in the first six months of fiscal 2003 from $16,197,000 during the same period in fiscal 2002, an increase of $2,094,000. Shipments of wire-based medical stent components increased approximately $2,500,000 between the six month period ended December 31, 2001 and the six month period ended December 31, 2002 partially offset by a decline of approximately $100,000 of tube-based medical stent components during the same period. Looking forward to the balance of fiscal 2003, the company anticipates that overall AAA stent component activity will show a significant increase over the fiscal 2002 level based on information received from customers concerning the balance of fiscal 2003.
Other medical device component shipments, including products utilized in minimally invasive surgery and guidewire applications, increased approximately $1,000,000 between the first six months of fiscal 2002 and the first six months of fiscal 2003.
9
Revenues from sales of arch wire and high pressure sealing plugs increased approximately $800,000 during the first six months of fiscal 2003.
These revenue increases were partially offset by a decrease of approximately $1,500,000 in shipments of superelastic tube, utilized in coronary applications and for other peripheral stenting, and a decrease of $500,000 in superelastic wire, utilized in various industrial applications.
Costs and Expenses. Manufacturing costs (including costs associated with research and development revenues) increased to $11,879,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2002 from $8,144,000 during the same six-month period in fiscal 2002. This increase of $3,735,000, or 46%, is primarily the result of two factors. The Company experienced poor manufacturing yields in the first six months of fiscal 2003 on both its wire-based and tube-based AAA stent components. The wire-based yield issues relate primarily to ramp-up issues on this relatively new product area. The tube-based yield issues result from process yield variabilities. The other factor leading to the increase in manufacturing costs was the reduction in shipments of higher margin superelastic tube in the first six months of fiscal 2003 versus the first six months of fiscal 2002.
Because of the foregoing, the Companys gross margin from sales decreased to 35% for the six month period ended December 31, 2002, from 50% in the comparable period in fiscal 2002. The Company anticipates that improvements in manufacturing yields will result in an increase in the gross margin from sales during the balance of fiscal 2003.
General, selling and administrative expenses (including depreciation, amortization and a (gain) loss on disposal of assets) decreased $421,000, or 8%, to $4,767,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2002, as compared to $5,188,000 during the same period of fiscal 2002. This decrease is primarily due to a reduction in corporate staffing, legal and severance costs. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $1,216,000 relating to its own internal products as well as the development of future products for the six months ended December 31, 2002 as compared to $1,273,000 during the same period of fiscal 2002. Other expense decreased from $75,000 in the first six months of fiscal year 2002 to $38,000 in the comparable period in fiscal year 2003, due primarily to an increase in interest income associated with a higher cash balance along with a reduction in interest expense associated with a reduced level of borrowing.
The Company recorded a benefit for income taxes of $6,908,000 for the first six months of fiscal 2003 versus a provision for income taxes of $292,000 for the same period in fiscal 2002. This change is due primarily to a decrease in the deferred tax valuation allowance as of December 31, 2002 to recognize deferred tax assets at amounts considered by management, more likely than not, to be realized.
Net Income. Primarily due to the federal tax benefit and the reduction in operating expenses, the Companys net income increased by $6,017,000, to $8,515,000 for the first six months of fiscal 2003 compared to a net income of $2,498,000 for the same period in fiscal 2002. Excluding the recognition of the deferred tax asset, net income for the six month period ended December 31, 2002 was $1,493,000, compared to $2,498,000 for the six month period ended December 31, 2001.
(b) LIQUITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 2002, the Companys cash and cash equivalents balance was $5,141,000, an increase of $2,190,000 from $2,951,000 at the start of fiscal 2003. Cash provided by operations was $2,821,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2002. Cash used in investing activities was $528,000 for the six month period ended December 31, 2002, representing funds invested in property, plant and equipment. During the six months ended December 31, 2002, cash used in financing activities totaled $103,000, due principally to the pay-down of the Companys note payable. Working capital at December 31, 2002, was $13,260,000, an increase of $4,381,000 from $8,879,000 at June 30, 2002. $2,537,000 of the increase in working capital was represented by the current portion of the deferred tax asset that was recognized as of December 31, 2002.
In fiscal 2002 and the first six months of fiscal 2003, ended on December 31, 2002, the primary capital requirement was to fund additions to property, plant and equipment.
On April 2, 2002, New England Partners exercised 200,000 warrants at a price of $0.853 per warrant, and 400,000 warrants at $1.19 per warrant, to purchase 600,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The Company received $647,000 from this transaction.
On March 31, 2002, a former employee exercised 125,000 warrants at a price of $.90 per warrant, to purchase 125,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The Company received $113,000 from this transaction.

On November 8, 2001, the Company completed a private equity placement with New England Partners and raised $750,000. Proceeds were raised through the sale of units, each of which consisted of two shares of common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock. Each unit was priced at $2.00. The warrants are exercisable at $1.25 per share, exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance. New England Partners was granted piggyback registration rights to participate in the registration of the securities purchased in the private equity placement, which was completed in January 2001. The registration became effective August 28, 2002. Other terms and conditions were set forth in the definitive documents.
On January 31, 2001, the Company completed a private equity placement and raised $2,395,000. Proceeds were raised through the sale of units, each of which consisted of one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock. Each unit was priced at $1.00. The warrants are exercisable at $2.25 per share, valid for a period of three years from the date of issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the fair market value of one share of common stock of the Company is equal to or greater than $3.50 for twenty consecutive days during the term of the warrant, the Company has the right to demand that the holder exercise the warrant within a 30-day period. Failure of the holder to exercise the warrant within thirty days would cause the warrant to become void and the holder would lose all rights that it has with respect to the warrant. In accordance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Company filed a registration statement for the registration of the sale by the investors of their Company securities on April 12, 2001. The registration became effective December 27, 2001. Other terms and conditions were set forth in the definitive documents.
On June 30, 1998, the Company and Webster Bank entered into a Commercial Revolving Loan, Term Loan, Line of Credit and Security Agreement and related financing documents and agreements (the Webster Facility). Upon entering into the Webster Facility, the Company paid off all amounts outstanding under its prior credit facility with First Union National Bank. The Webster Facility (prior to the amendments described below) included a revolving loan, an equipment loan line of credit and a $500,000 term loan. The term loan is to be repaid in equal monthly installments of principal over its five-year term. The revolving loan provided for borrowings up to the lesser of (a) $3,000,000 or (b) an amount equal to the aggregate of (1) 80% of eligible accounts receivable and (2) the lesser of $1,000,000 or 35% of eligible inventory. The revolving loan requires the payment of a commitment fee equal to 0.25% per annum of the daily-unused portion of the revolving loan. The equipment loan line of credit provides for equipment financing up to the lesser of $750,000 or 75% of the purchase price for eligible equipment each year through June 30, 2001. On June 30, 2000, the Company converted $1,250,000 from the equipment line of credit into a term loan.
On November 30, 1999, the Company and Webster Bank reached agreement on an amendment to the Webster Facility. Under the terms of the agreement, the revolving loan now provides for borrowings up to the lesser of (a) $5,000,000 or (b) an amount equal to the aggregate of (1) 80% of eligible accounts receivable and (2) the lesser of $1,000,000 or 35% of eligible inventory. The equipment loan is amended to provide for equipment financing up to the lesser of $1,250,000 or 75% of the purchase price for eligible equipment each year through June 30, 2001. A new term loan in the amount of $1,000,000 was provided with the requirement that not less than $500,000 of the term loan be used to finance new machinery and equipment purchases. The Company has since satisfied said requirement. Pursuant to a verbal request from Webster Bank during the third quarter of fiscal year 2001, the Company refrained from borrowing under the equipment line until June, 2001, when it borrowed $250,000 from the equipment line and converted on July 1, 2001, the amount to a term loan.
On June 30, 2001, the Company and Webster Bank reached agreement on a second amendment to the Webster Facility. Under the terms of the agreement, the revolving loan now provides for borrowings up to the lesser of (a) if the Availability Test is satisfied, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) an amount equal to the aggregate of (1) 80% of eligible accounts receivable and (2) the lesser of $1,000,000 or 35% of eligible inventory or (b) if the Availability Test is not satisfied, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) an amount equal to the aggregate of (1) 80% of eligible accounts receivable plus (2) the lesser of $1,000,000 or 35% of eligible inventory, multiplied by (3) 75%. The Availability Test means that the Company has raised additional equity and long term debt on terms satisfactory to Webster. There is no provision for equipment loans under the revised agreement. The other major provisions of the agreement remain unchanged. At June 30, 2001, an aggregate amount of approximately $3,100,000 was outstanding under the Webster Facility. The Webster Facility is secured by substantially all of the Companys assets.
On December 31, 2001, the Company and Webster Bank reached an agreement on a third amendment to the Webster Facility. Under the terms of the third amendment which expires on December 31, 2003, the revolving loan now provides for borrowings up to the lesser of (a) $5,000,000 or (b) an amount equal to the aggregate of (1) 85% of the eligible accounts receivable plus (2) 30% of eligible inventory provided, however, that at no time shall 85% of eligible accounts receivable be less than 50% of the outstanding revolver balance. Several existing term loans totaling $1,728,490 were refinanced into a single term loan, which is due December 31, 2005. The Webster Facility, as amended, includes an equipment loan line of credit that provides for equipment financing up to the lesser of $1,000,000 or 75% of the purchase price for eligible equipment through December 31, 2002. At December 31, 2002, advances of $276,000 had been taken on the equipment line of credit. The Company, on January 1, 2003, converted amounts borrowed under the line of credit to a term loan. The equipment loan line of credit may be extended through
11
December 31, 2003, at Webster Banks option. The other major provisions of the Webster Facility remain unchanged. At December 31, 2002, an aggregate amount of approximately $1,818,000 was outstanding under the Webster Facility. The Webster Facility is secured by substantially all the Companys assets.
Interest on the revolving loan and equipment line of credit is variable based on LIBOR plus 2.5%. Interest on the outstanding term loan from December 31, 2001 is at a fixed rate of 7.55% per annum. Interest on the equipment advance converted January 1, 2003, to a term loan is at a variable rate based on LIBOR plus 2.5%.
In addition, the Webster Facility contains various restrictive covenants, including, among others, limitations on encumbrances and additional debt, prohibition on the payment of dividends or redemption of stock (except in connection with certain existing put rights), restrictions on management/ownership changes, and required compliance with specified financial ratios.
The Company has in the past grown through acquisitions (including the acquisition of Wire Solutions and Raychem Corporations nickel titanium product line). As part of its continuing growth strategy, the Company expects to continue to evaluate and pursue opportunities to acquire other companies, assets and product lines that either complement or expand the Companys existing businesses. The Company intends to use available cash from operations and authorized but unissued common stock to finance any such acquisitions. The Company does not currently, however, contemplate any material acquisitions for the remainder of fiscal 2003.
The Company has substantial requirements to fund plant and equipment projects to support the expected increased sales volume of SMAs (Shape Memory Alloys) and superelastic materials during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2003, and beyond. The Company expects that it will be able to pay for these expenditures through a combination of existing working capital surplus, cash flow generated through operations and increased borrowings. The largest risk to the liquidity of the Company would be an event that caused an interruption of cash flow generated through operations, because such an event could also have a negative impact on the Companys ability to access credit. The Companys current dependence on a limited number of products and customers represents the greatest risk to regular operations.
In connection with a December 1994 subordinated debt financing, the Company granted Connecticut Innovations, Incorporated (CII), at the time the holder of both common stock and warrants of the Company, a put right if at any time before the earlier of June 28, 2006 and the date on which CII ceases to hold at least 35% of the common stock underlying the convertible securities originally issued to it, the Company ceases to (a) maintain its corporate headquarters and all of its product business operations in the State of Connecticut (including the assembly of all products to be sold to U.S. Surgical Corporation), excluding the Companys components and sub-assembly business acquired from Raychem, (b) base its president and chief executive officer, a majority of its senior executives, and all of its administrative, financial, research and development, marketing and customer service staff relating to its product business (subject to the same inclusions and exclusions as clause (a)) in the State of Connecticut, (c) conduct all of its operations relating to its product business directly or through subcontractors and through licensed operations in the State of Connecticut (subject to the same inclusions and exclusions as clause (a)), and (d) maintain its principal bank accounts with banks located in the State of Connecticut (provided, however, that assets, revenues, employees, operations and bank accounts attributable to any entity acquired by the Company shall not be considered when determining if the Company has satisfied such requirements so long as such entity (1) was acquired in an arms length transaction, (2) was not an affiliate of the Company and was not controlled by an affiliate of the Company prior to such acquisition, and (3) had been in existence and operating as a business for at least one year at the time of the acquisition). Upon CIIs exercise of its put, the Company shall be obligated to purchase from CII all the Companys Common Stock then owned by CII and underlying warrants then owned by CII at a price equal to the greater of the then current market price of the Companys common stock or $2.00 per share, less, in either event, the aggregate amount of unpaid exercise prices of all warrants put to the Company by CII. Using $2.00 as the put price per share, which exceeds the market price for the Companys common stock on December 31, 2002, the aggregate put price that would have to be paid by the Company if the put were exercised would be approximately $2.19 million. To the extent that the current market value of the Companys common stock exceeds $2.00 per share at any time, the put price would be greater. If CII were to have the right to put its securities and were to choose to exercise that right, it would have a serious adverse effect on the Companys liquidity and the Company would most likely have to seek equity financing to be able to meet its obligations to CII. However, the Company believes that it has the ability to ensure that its operations do not move from Connecticut in a manner that would trigger CIIs put.
In addition to funding normal operations, the Company may be required to secure new facilities to house its west coast operations during the next two fiscal years. The cost of this move and associated relocation expenses would be substantial; however the Company believes that the combination of its borrowing facility and cash flow generated through operations will be sufficient to meet the Companys total capital requirements. If funds available through these sources were not sufficient, then the Company would likely be forced to raise equity capital which could have a material adverse effect on the per share market price of the Companys common stock.
