Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in the Company’s 2003 Annual Report to Shareholders. The results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

 

2. On February 10, 2004, the Company declared a five percent (5%) stock dividend payable to all common stock shareholders of record on March 19, 2004.  The dividend was paid on or about March 26, 2004.  Shares outstanding for all periods presented have been adjusted to reflect the five percent (5%) stock dividend.

 

3. Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding whereas diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of unexercised common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from diluted earnings per share calculations for periods with a net loss.  Both basic and diluted earnings per share reflect the stock dividend as referenced in Note 2.

 

4. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142).” The new standard requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives will no longer be amortized, but instead will be tested for impairment at least annually. The standard also specifies criteria that intangible assets must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill.  As of the date of adoption of SFAS 142, the Company has discontinued amortization of all existing goodwill. The SFAS 142 transitional impairment evaluation did not indicate any goodwill impairment. In addition, the Company has not identified any intangible assets, which must be recognized apart from goodwill.

 

5. On June 30, 2003, the Company entered into a new three-year credit agreement with LaSalle Bank.  The agreement is a $12 million revolving credit facility, which bears interest at either prime plus 50 basis points or at LIBOR plus 300 basis points, determined at the Company’s election.  The assets of the Company secure the LaSalle facility and the facility includes all reasonable and customary covenants and terms typically included in such facility.  The Company was in compliance with all covenants at June 30, 2004.

 

7



 

6. As of June 30, 2004, the Company maintains an Incentive Stock Option Plan.  The Company accounts for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations.  No stock-based compensation costs are reflected in net earnings, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.  The following table illustrates the effect on net earnings and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to stock-based employee compensation:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition & Results of Operations

 

Three Months Ended June 30, 2004 & 2003

For the second quarter ended June 30, 2004, net sales increased 9.1 percent to $12,885,000 from $11,810,000 in the prior year’s period.  The sales increase was attributable to additional gaming and amusement display sales.  Overall, gaming continues to drive sales, as it accounted for 75.9 percent of total sales revenues in the 2004 second quarter.  Gross operating margin as a percentage of sales was 18.0 percent, or $2,324,000, compared to 19.5 percent, or $2,298,000, for the same period last year.  Product sales mix accounted for the margin decrease.  Selling, and administrative expenditures decreased $100,000 or 4.6 percent to $2,077,000 from $2,177,000 in the second quarter of 2003.  Other income, net, was $37,000 compared to other expense, net of $75,000 in the second quarter of 2003 as the Company recorded higher earnings from its joint venture in the 2004 quarter.  Tax expense was $6,000 compared to $11,000 for the second quarter of 2003.  This expense was attributed to minimum taxes due in certain states.  Overall, the Company has a net operating loss carryforward of $8,883,000 to offset future Federal taxable income.  For the second quarter of 2004, the Company reported net earnings of $278,000, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share, compared to net earnings of $35,000, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, for the comparable 2003 quarter.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2004 & 2003

For the six months ended June 30, 2004, net sales increased 8.3 percent to $25,630,000 from $23,667,000 in the prior year’s period.  The sales increase was attributable to additional gaming and amusement display sales as the Company has secured a new amusement customer and has made increased display sales to its gaming customers.  Overall, gaming continues to drive sales, as it accounted for 73.7 percent of total sales revenues in the 2004 period.  Gross operating margin as a percentage of sales was 18.5 percent, or $4,744,000, compared to 19.1 percent, or $4,531,000, for the same period last year.  Product sales mix accounted for the slight decrease in margin.  Engineering, selling, and administrative expenditures decreased $95,000 or 2.2 percent to $4,164,000 from $4,259,000 in the 2003 period.  Other expense, net, decreased $85,000 or 78.0 percent to $24,000 from $109,000 in the 2003 period as the Company recorded higher earnings from its joint venture in the 2004 period.  Tax expense was $18,000 compared to $3,000 for the 2003 period.  This expense was attributed to minimum taxes due in certain states.  Overall, the Company has a net operating loss carryforward of $8,883,000 to offset future Federal taxable income.  For the six months of 2004, the Company reported net earnings of $538,000, or $0.08 per basic and diluted share, compared to net earnings of $160,000, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, for the comparable 2003 period.

 

Market & Credit Risks

The Company is subject to certain market risks, mainly interest rate risk.  In 2003, the Company entered into a three-year, $12 million, secured credit facility with LaSalle Bank NA, which matures on June 30, 2006.  At June 30, 2004, the Company had total outstanding bank debt of $6.0 million at an interest rate of 4.50 percent.  The Company believes that its exposure to interest rate fluctuations will be limited due to the Company’s practice of using any excess cash flow to reduce outstanding debt.  All of the Company’s debt is subject to variable interest rates. An adverse change in interest rates during the time that this debt is outstanding would cause an increase in the amount of interest paid.  The Company may pay down the loans at any time without penalty.  However, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would result in an annual increase of approximately $60,000 in additional interest expense recognized in the financial statements.

 

The Company is exposed to credit risk on certain assets, primarily accounts receivable. The Company provides credit to customers in the ordinary course of business and performs ongoing credit evaluations.

As of June 30, 2004, cash increased $193,000 from year-end 2003.  On a daily basis, the Company utilizes a sweep account to reduce its cash balance and minimize the outstanding balance on its revolving line of credit and interest expense.  This value will fluctuate based on the timing of checks clearing the Company’s accounts.  Accounts receivable increased $1,043,000 or 22.2 percent to $5,733,000 from $4,690,000.  This increase is attributable to higher sales recorded in the last month of the 2004 quarter.  Inventory increased $2,536,000 or 28.5 percent to $11,440,000 from $8,904,000 at year-end 2003. This increase is attributable to the Company maintaining higher finished goods inventory on hand for the Company’s largest gaming customer and additional raw materials procured for upcoming production.  The Company is faced with long lead times on some

core inventory, which caused the raw materials increase.  Other current assets decreased $173,000 or 16.6 percent to $868,000 from $1,041,000 at year-end.  Fixed assets, net, decreased $229,000 or 11.1 percent to $1,821,000 from $2,050,000 at year-end.  The Company’s investment in joint venture increased $130,000 or 16.3 percent to $928,000 from $798,000 at year-end as the Company recognized earnings from its investment. Current liabilities increased $2,132,000 or 43.8 percent to $6,998,000 from $4,866,000 at year-end, as the Company had higher accounts payable to its vendors to support upcoming production orders.  Under its current credit facility, the Company is required to maintain certain financial covenants. While the Company is currently meeting its financial covenants for 2004 its liquidity could be adversely affected if it is unable to do so. Overall, the Company believes that its future financial requirements can be met with funds generated from operating activities and from its credit facility during the foreseeable future.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation–Transition and Disclosure” this Statement, which is effective for the years ending after December 15, 2003 which amends Statement No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and provides alternative methods of transition for voluntary change to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock based employee compensation. In addition, Statement No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of Statement No. 123 regardless of the accounting method used to account for stock based compensation. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock based compensation of employees using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations. The Company has adopted the enhanced disclosure provisions as defined in SFAS No. 148.

 

Forward Looking Statements

Because the Company wants to provide shareholders and potential investors with more meaningful and useful information, this report may contain certain forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that reflect the Company’s current expectations regarding the future results of operations, performance and achievements of the Company. Such forward-looking statements are subject to the safe harbor created by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company has tried, wherever possible, to identify these forward-looking statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect” and similar expressions. These statements reflect the Company’s current beliefs and are based on information currently available to it.  Accordingly, these statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions which could cause the Company’s future results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, any of these statements, which are more fully described in our Securities and Exchange Commission 10-K filing. The Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly the results of any revisions to any such forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
