ITEM 1. Financial Statements

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

A. SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Interim financial information—The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2004 and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 are unaudited and have been prepared on the same basis as our audited consolidated financial statements. MTC Technologies, Inc. (MTC or the Company) has continued to follow the accounting principles set forth in the consolidated financial statements included in its 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary to present fairly the periods indicated. Results of operations for the interim periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

 

Business Segment—We operate as one segment, delivering a broad array of services primarily to the federal government in four areas, which are offered separately or in combination across our customer base. These services are Systems Engineering and Technical Services, Information Technology, Intelligence and Program Management. Although we offer the services referred to above, revenue is internally reviewed by our management primarily on a contract basis. Therefore, it would be impracticable to determine revenue by services offered.

 

Stock Based Compensation—We apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25) and related interpretations in accounting for our stock option plans. Compensation expense for stock options to employees under the 2002 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan is recognized based on the difference, if any, between the fair value of our stock and the exercise price of the option at the date of grant. Had compensation costs been determined based on the fair value of the options on the grant dates consistent with the methodology prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation (SFAS No. 123), our net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below.

 

Because future stock option awards may be granted and because it is unlikely that actual events will ever match the assumptions used in making these calculations, the pro forma impacts shown below are probably not indicative of the impact in future years.

B. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

The Company and a selling stockholder completed a public offering of 2,250,000 primary and 1,500,000 secondary shares of common stock in February 2004. The primary shares were issued by the Company and the secondary shares were sold by the selling stockholder. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling stockholder. The Company received net proceeds of $59.3 million from the offering, after deducting the Company’s portion of expenses and the underwriting discount.

 

We intend to use the proceeds from the offering (together with cash on hand and additional borrowings) for working capital and general corporate purposes including possible strategic acquisitions.

 

In the first quarter of 2004, we issued 133,074 shares of our common stock, with a value of $3.6 million, in connection with the fourth quarter 2003 acquisition of International Consultants, Inc. See Note C. Acquisitions.

 

C. ACQUISITIONS

 

International Consultants, Inc.

 

On October 1, 2003, we signed a stock purchase agreement and acquired International Consultants, Inc. (ICI) from ICI’s shareholders. Essentially all of ICI’s work is in the defense industry where its main focus has been to support the United States Army. ICI specializes in program management, information technology and logistics services and operations.

 

The initial purchase price for 100% of the outstanding common stock of ICI was $10.2 million, which was paid with $2.4 million in our common stock, $7.5 million in assumption of ICI debt (of which

approximately $3.0 million arose in connection with payments to ICI’s shareholders) and $0.3 million for related acquisition costs, all of which was immediately paid with cash on hand. In the first quarter of 2004, we paid additional consideration of $4.6 million, which consisted of shares of our common stock with a value of $3.6 million and $1.0 million in cash, to the former shareholders of ICI as a result of the achievement of certain performance goals under an earn-out provision in the stock purchase agreement. We could be required to pay the former shareholders of ICI up to an additional $4.5 million under such provision, payable in a combination of our common stock and cash, if certain other performance goals are achieved through 2005. If all contingent amounts are earned, the total acquisition price could reach $19.3 million. Any future payments will also be paid in a combination of our common stock and in cash. If the maximum purchase price is paid, the total payments will have been made 50% in cash or debt assumption and 50% in our common stock. Shares of our common stock issued in connection with our acquisition of ICI were issued pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 provided by Section 4(2) thereof.

 

Vitronics Inc.

 

Effective October 24, 2003, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of Vitronics Inc. (Vitronics) from Vitronics’ shareholders. All of Vitronics’ work is in the defense industry where its main focus has been to support the United States Army. Vitronics specializes in research and development, systems engineering, information technology, software development, and system integration services.

 

The initial purchase price for 100% of the common stock of Vitronics and related acquisition costs was $9.0 million, which was paid from cash on hand at closing on October 31, 2003. Vitronics’ former shareholders may receive additional cash payments through 2007 if certain operating goals are achieved or contracts are awarded. Based on our current estimates, we expect the total purchase price will be approximately $9.7 million.

 

D. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

We subcontract to, purchase services from, rent a portion of our facilities from, and utilize aircraft from various entities that are controlled by Mr. Rajesh K. Soin, a significant stockholder and Chairman of the Board of Directors. The following is a summary of transactions with related parties:

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

(2) Integrated Information Technology Corporation (IITC) was acquired by an unrelated party on May 28, 2004. Only transactions with IITC prior to May 28, 2004 are included in the related party transactions noted above.

 

We jointly own certain aircraft with Soin Aviation, LLC. We have also entered into a sharing arrangement with Soin Aviation under which we are responsible for a pro-rata share of the fixed and marginal costs associated with the jointly owned aircraft. In addition, we lease one facility from an entity related to Mr. Soin.

 

During the second quarter of 2004, we sold our 10% interest in one aircraft and our 90% interest in a second aircraft, which we jointly owned with Soin Aviation, to an unrelated party and recognized a net loss of approximately $182,000. Also during the second quarter of 2004, we purchased a 10% interest in an aircraft owned by Soin Aviation and sold to Soin Aviation a 10% interest in an aircraft we purchased from an unrelated party. The exchange of the aircraft was made in order to increase operating efficiency and to enhance the availability of the aircraft.

 

We believe that our subcontracting, lease, and other agreements with each of the related parties identified above reflect prevailing market conditions at the time they were entered into and contain substantially similar terms to those that might be negotiated by independent parties on an arm’s-length basis.

 

At June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, amounts due from related parties were $0 and $259,000, respectively. At June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, amounts payable to related parties were $94,000 and $180,000 respectively.

 

E. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

 

Basic earnings per common share were computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Shares issued during the period and shares reacquired, if any, during the period are weighted for the portion of the period during which they were outstanding. The weighted average shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 are as follows:

F. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Acquisition of Command Technologies, Inc.

 

On July 1, 2004, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of Command Technologies, Inc. (CTI) from CTI’s shareholders. CTI’s customer base consists primarily of the Department of Defense and national security agencies, and CTI specializes in professional and technical services, information

technology, and technology applications to training, simulation, and modeling. The initial purchase price for 100% of the outstanding common stock of CTI was $45 million, paid from cash on hand at closing on July 1, 2004. In addition to the amount paid to shareholders, certain employees will receive payments, through 2007, in the amount of $2 million. It is also anticipated that we will realize future income tax benefits with a net present value of approximately $9 million in future periods as the result of CTI shareholders agreeing to a Section 338(h)(10) election under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

 

Settlement of Contingency

 

In July 2004, we signed a definitive settlement agreement with Bear Stearns Merchant Fund Corp. settling the lawsuit filed by Bear Stearns Merchant Fund Corp. alleging breach of contract and other matters in connection with its proposal to purchase Modern Technologies Corp. (our principal subsidiary, which is now known as MTC Technologies, Inc.). The expense associated with this settlement is included in the accompanying financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and was not material to the financial statements.

 

Extension of Credit Agreement

 

In July 2004, we agreed with our lenders to extend the maturity of our credit agreement from December 31, 2005 to December 31, 2006. The agreement can be extended for additional one-year terms by mutual consent with our lenders.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

GENERAL OVERVIEW

 

The following discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting the consolidated operating results of MTC Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries (MTC or the Company) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2003 and the financial condition of MTC for June 30, 2004 compared to December 31, 2003. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.

 

We provide sophisticated systems engineering and technical services, information technology, intelligence and program management services focusing primarily on U.S. defense, intelligence and civilian federal government agencies. Our services encompass the full system life cycle from requirements definition, design, development and integration, to upgrade, sustainment and support for mission critical information and weapons systems. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, over 95% and 92%, respectively, of our revenue was derived from our customers in the Department of Defense and the intelligence community, including the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Army and joint military commands.

 

We report operating results and financial data as a single segment and believe our contract base is well diversified. However, in recent years a significant amount of our revenue has been earned under two contracts, the Aeronautical Systems Center Blanket Purchase Agreement (ASC/BPA) and the Flexible Acquisition and Sustainment Tool(FAST), contract. Revenue under the ASC/BPA was approximately 10% of our total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and was approximately 14% and 16% of our revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. The largest task order under the ASC/BPA amounted to approximately 2% of total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004. The ASC/BPA, which was originally awarded as a small business set aside contract, expires on September 30, 2005 and our ability to retain this contract is uncertain, since the U.S. Air Force has not yet announced the acquisition strategy for the renewal. It is possible that some of our current work under the ASC/BPA could be converted to General Service Administration (GSA) schedules or other contract vehicles. In addition, a substantial amount of the work could be retained by us as a subcontractor to one or more small business prime contractors, should the customer’s final acquisition strategy limit the competition to small businesses.

 

In July 2001, we were one of six awardees of the FAST contract with a ceiling of $7.4 billion and with a period of performance, including option years, which extends to 2008. Revenue under the FAST contract was approximately 30% of total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and was approximately 32% and 30% of our revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2003, respectively. The FAST revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 was comprised of 49 separate task orders, the largest of which amounted to approximately 5% and 7% of total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively. In prior years, we performed some of the work we are now performing on the FAST contract on other contract vehicles. While the FAST contract represents a significant percentage of our total revenue, we believe that the broad array of engineering, technical and management services we provide to the federal government through various contract vehicles allows for diversified business growth. No other task order, including individual contracts under our GSA vehicles, accounted for more than 3% of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004.

 

Under the FAST contract, we have the potential to compete for hundreds of millions of dollars in task orders over the FAST contract’s approximately four year remaining life as the U.S. Air Force maintains and modernizes aircraft and defense systems. As of June 30, 2004, we have been awarded 62 task orders under the FAST contract with a remaining potential award value of approximately $919

million if all options are exercised. We believe the FAST contract presents an opportunity for significant additional growth and expansion of our services. However, many of the task orders that have already been awarded have involved and those that may be awarded in the future under the FAST contract could potentially involve, management of large programs involving one or more sub-contractors in order to provide a total solution to our customer. Margins on subcontractor-based revenue are typically lower than the margins on work performed by our own employees. Since the FAST contract is expected to continue to be a significant part of our business for the next several years, it is possible that our operating income, as a percentage of total revenue, may diminish, although it will grow in absolute dollars.

 

Our federal government contracts are subject to government audits of our direct and indirect costs. The incurred cost audits have been completed through December 31, 2001 and the rates have been agreed to. We do not anticipate any material adjustment to our financial statements in subsequent periods for audits not yet completed.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, approximately 79% and 81%, respectively, of our revenue came from work provided to our customers as a prime contractor and the balance came from work provided as a subcontractor. Approximately 70% of our revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 consisted of the work of our employees, and the balance was provided by the work of subcontractors. Our work as a prime contractor on the FAST contract has resulted, and is expected to continue to result, in a significant use of subcontractors.

 

We typically provide our services under contracts with a base term, often of three years, and option terms, typically two to four additional one-year terms or more, which the customer can exercise on an annual basis. We also have contracts with fixed terms, some extending as long as five or six years. Although we occasionally obtain government contracts for which the contracting agency obligates funding for the full term of the contract, most of our government contracts receive incremental funding, which subjects us to the risks associated with the government’s annual appropriations process.

 

Contract Types. When contracting with our government customers, we enter into one of three basic types of contracts: time-and-materials, fixed-price and cost-plus.

 

Time-and-materials contracts. Under a time-and-materials contract, we receive a fixed hourly rate for each direct labor hour worked, plus reimbursement for our allowable direct costs. To the extent that our actual labor costs vary significantly from the negotiated rates under a time-and-materials contract, we can either make more money than we originally anticipated or lose money on the contract.

 

Fixed-price contracts. Under fixed-price contracts, we agree to perform specified work for a firm fixed price. If our actual costs exceed our estimate of the costs to perform the contract, we may generate less profit or incur a loss. A portion of our fixed-price contract work is under a fixed-price level-of-effort contract, which represents a similar level of risk to our time-and-materials contracts, under which we agree to perform certain units of work for a fixed price per unit. We generally do not undertake high-risk work, such as software development, under fixed-price contracts.

 

Cost-plus contracts. Under cost-plus contracts, we are reimbursed for allowable costs and receive a supplemental fee, which represents our profit. Cost-plus fixed fee contracts specify the contract fee in dollars or as a percentage of anticipated costs. Cost-plus incentive fee and cost-plus award fee contracts provide for increases or decreases in the contract fee, within specified limits, based upon actual results as compared to contractual targets for factors such as cost, quality, schedule and performance.

Funded Backlog. Backlog, which consists of funded and unfunded portions, is our estimate of the remaining future revenue from existing signed contracts, assuming the exercise of all options relating to those contracts. We define funded backlog as the portion of backlog for which funding currently is appropriated and obligated to us under the contract by the purchasing agency or otherwise authorized for payment to us by the customers upon completion of a specified portion of work, less revenue previously recognized. Our funded backlog does not include the full potential value of our contracts because Congress often appropriates funds for a particular program or contract on a yearly or quarterly basis, even though the contract may call for performance over a number of years.

 

The primary source of our backlog is contracts with the federal government. Our estimated funded backlog at June 30, 2004 was approximately $204 million as compared to approximately $152 million at June 30, 2003. The increase in funded backlog primarily resulted from funding increases in the FAST contract, a Command and Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) contract and a commercial contract, as well as due to the addition of the Logistics Joint Administrative and Management Support Services (LOGJAMMS), Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM) Omnibus II, and Rapid Response to Critical System Requirement Support (R2CSR) contracts resulting from the acquisition of ICI and Vitronics. Although our funded backlog at June 30, 2004 was approximately 88% of our trailing twelve-month revenue, we believe that a more typically sustainable funded backlog is in the range of 40% to 60% of trailing twelve-month revenue.

 

Critical accounting policies

 

Revenue Recognition. Our critical accounting policies primarily concern revenue recognition and related cost estimation. We recognize revenue on time-and-materials contracts to the extent of billable rates times hours delivered plus the costs of any allowable expenses incurred. We recognize revenue on fixed-price contracts under the percentage-of-completion method based on costs incurred in relation to total estimated costs, or upon delivery of specific products or services, as appropriate. We recognize revenue on cost-plus contracts to the extent of allowable costs incurred plus a proportionate amount of the fee earned. We consider performance-based fees, including award fees, under any contract type to be earned only when we can demonstrate satisfaction of a specific performance goal or we receive contractual notification from a customer that the fee has been earned. In all cases, we recognize revenue only when pervasive evidence of an arrangement exists (including when waiting for formal funding authorization under federal government contracts), services have been rendered, the contract price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.

 

We began recording work-in-process inventory during the second quarter of 2003 because some of our task orders under the FAST contract have reached the production delivery stage. On these task orders, we are now required to meet customer delivery schedules as part of our program management services. The inventory relates to costs accumulated under fixed-price-type contracts accounted for under the

completed contract method and certain output measures, such as units delivered, of the percentage-of-completion method. The work-in-process inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and is computed on an average cost basis.

 

Contract revenue recognition inherently involves estimation. From time to time, circumstances develop that require us to revise our total estimated costs or revenue expectations. In most cases, these changes relate to changes in the contractual scope of our work, and do not significantly impact the expected profit rate on a contract. We record the cumulative effects of any revisions to our estimated total costs and revenue in the period in which circumstances requiring revision become known.

 

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue primarily consists of the costs for providing our services to customers, which primarily include the salaries and wages, plus associated fringe benefits, of our employees directly serving customers, and the occupancy and other infrastructure costs necessary to support those employees. Cost of revenue also includes the cost of subcontractors and outside consultants, third-party materials, such as hardware and software, that we purchase and provide to the customer as part of the contract, depreciation, and any other costs, such as travel expenses, incurred to support contract efforts.

 

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses include the salaries and wages, plus associated fringe benefits, of our employees not performing work directly for customers. Among the functions included in these expenses are contracts, administration, business development, accounting, human resources, information systems support, and executive and senior management. General and administrative expenses also include related depreciation, amortization, and occupancy and travel expenses for employees performing general and administrative functions. Also included in general and administrative expenses are related party expenses associated with the rental of one facility and our utilization of aircraft that we jointly own with a significant stockholder.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets. Goodwill related to our acquisitions represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net tangible assets and separately identified intangible assets acquired. Upon adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, on January 1, 2002, we discontinued amortization of goodwill, but rather test our goodwill for impairment at least annually. We have elected to conduct our annual impairment reviews during the fourth quarter of each year. We base our assessment of possible impairment on the discounted present value of the operating cash flows of our consolidated operating unit.

 

Purchase price allocated to intangible assets is amortized using the straight-line method over the expected life of the intangible asset.

 

Income Taxes. Deferred income taxes are recognized based on the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized. Income tax expense represents the current tax provision for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004

COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003

 

Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2004 increased 47.3%, or approximately $20.1 million, to $62.7 million as compared to $42.6 million in the same period in 2003. Organic growth of 21.8% amounted to $9.3 million of the $20.1 million increase in revenue, and the remaining $10.8 million of revenue growth, or 25.4%, came from acquisitions. Our organic growth of $9.3 million was the result of an increase in work on new or existing contracts and task orders, primarily from growth in FAST, Defense Information Systems Network, PM Soldier Systems, and C4ISR task orders.

 

Gross profit. Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2004 increased 36.9%, or approximately $2.6 million, to $9.8 million as compared to $7.2 million in the same period in 2003. This increase primarily relates to increased revenue. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2004 decreased to 15.7% as compared to 16.9% for the corresponding period in 2003. This decrease in gross margin percentage was primarily attributable to the previously forecasted increase in the use of subcontractors and to a lesser extent from the increase in cost-plus contracts as the result of the acquisition of ICI. Revenue from work performed through the use of subcontractors for the second quarter of 2004 increased approximately $6.0 million from the same period in 2003. Margins on cost-plus contracts and subcontractor-based revenue are typically lower than the margins on work performed by our own employees.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2004 increased 14.6%, or approximately $0.4 million, to $2.8 million as compared to $2.5 million in the same period in 2003. This increase was primarily the result of increased salary and benefit expenses resulting from the addition of personnel to support our growth and a $0.2 million loss realized on the sale of aircraft during the second quarter of 2004. However, the percentage of general and administrative expenses declined as a percentage of revenue from 5.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to 4.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as a result of operating efficiencies.

 

Intangible asset amortization. Intangible asset amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2004 increased $0.3 million, to $0.4 million as compared to $0.1 million in the same period in 2003. This increase was the result of the amortization of the intangible assets that were acquired in connection with the 2003 fourth quarter acquisitions.

 

Operating income. Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 increased 42.9%, or approximately $2.0 million, to $6.6 million as compared to $4.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. This increase in operating income was primarily the result of increased gross profit, partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses and intangible asset amortization. Operating income as a percentage of revenue decreased from 10.8% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to 10.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2004. This decrease was in line with management’s expectations and primarily resulted from the decline in gross margin as discussed above.

 

Net interest income. Net interest income was $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to $0.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. Interest income increased in the second quarter of 2004 as a result of the investment of the proceeds received in February 2004 upon completion of our public offering of common stock. Interest income is expected to decrease in the third quarter of 2004 as a result of the use of $45 million of cash for the acquisition of CTI on July 1, 2004.

 

Income tax expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2004, our effective income tax rate was 38.8% compared with an effective tax rate of 39.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2003.

 

Net income. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 increased 46.4%, or approximately $1.3 million, to $4.2 million as compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. This increase in net income was primarily the result of increased operating income and interest income, which was partially offset by the increased income tax expense.

 

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004

COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003

 

Revenue. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased 55.8%, or approximately $43.9 million, to $122.5 million as compared to $78.7 million in the same period in 2003. Organic growth of 28.3% amounted to $22.2 million of the $43.9 million increase in revenue, and the remaining $21.6 million of revenue growth, or 27.5%, came from acquisitions made during the fourth quarter of 2003. Our organic growth of $22.2 million was the result of an increase in work on new or existing contracts and task orders, primarily from growth in FAST, Defense Information Systems Network, PM Soldier Systems, Technical Acquisition Support Services and C4ISR task orders.

 

Gross profit. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased 41.7%, or approximately $5.7 million, to $19.2 million as compared to $13.5 million in the same period in 2003. This increase primarily relates to increased revenue. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2004 decreased to 15.7% as compared to 17.2% for the corresponding period in 2003. This decrease in gross margin percentage was primarily attributable to the previously forecasted increase in the use of subcontractors and to a lesser extent from the increase in cost-plus contracts as the result of the acquisition of ICI. Revenue from work performed through the use of subcontractors for the

six months ended June 30, 2004 increased approximately $15.1 million from the same period in 2003. Margins on cost-plus contracts and subcontractor-based revenue are typically lower than the margins on work performed by our own employees.

 

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased 13.3%, or approximately $0.6 million, to $5.5 million as compared to $4.9 million in the same period in 2003. This increase was primarily the result of increased salary and benefit expenses resulting from the addition of personnel to support our growth and a $0.2 million loss realized on the sale of two aircraft during the second quarter of 2004. However, the percentage of general and administrative expenses declined as a percentage of revenue from 6.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2003 to 4.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as a result of operating efficiencies.

 

Intangible asset amortization. Intangible asset amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased $0.7 million, to $0.9 million as compared to $0.2 million in the same period in 2003. This increase was the result of the amortization of the intangible assets that were acquired in connection with the 2003 fourth quarter acquisitions.

 

Operating income. Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased 51.9%, or approximately $4.4 million, to $12.8 million as compared to $8.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This increase in operating income was primarily the result of increased gross profit, partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses and intangible asset amortization. Operating income as a percentage of revenue decreased from 10.7% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2003 to 10.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2004. This decrease was in line with management’s expectations and primarily resulted from the decline in gross margin as discussed above.

 

Net interest income. Net interest income was $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Interest income increased during the six months ended June 30, 2004 as a result of the investment of the proceeds received in February 2004 upon completion of our public offering of common stock. Interest income is expected to decrease in the third quarter of 2004 as a result of the use of $45 million of cash for the acquisition of CTI on July 1, 2004.

 

Income tax expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, our effective income tax rate was 39.2% compared with an effective tax rate of 39.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

 

Net income. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 increased 53.3%, or approximately $2.8 million, to $8.0 million as compared to $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This increase in net income was primarily the result of increased operating income and interest income, which was partially offset by the increased income tax expense.

 

QUARTERLY FLUCTUATIONS

 

Our results of operations, particularly our revenue, gross profit and cash flow, may vary significantly from quarter to quarter depending on a number of factors, including the progress of contract performance, revenue earned on contracts, the number of billable days in a quarter, the timing of customer orders or deliveries, changes in the scope of contracts and billing of other direct and subcontract costs, timing of funding of task orders, the commencement and completion of contracts we have been awarded and general economic conditions. Because a significant portion of our expenses, such as personnel and facilities costs, are fixed in the short term, successful contract performance and variation in the volume of activity, as well as in the number of contracts or task orders commenced or completed during any quarter, may cause significant variations in operating results from quarter to quarter.

The federal government’s fiscal year ends September 30. If a federal budget for the next fiscal year has not been approved by that date in each year, our customers may have to suspend engagements that we are working on until a budget has been approved. Any suspensions may cause us to realize lower revenue in the fourth quarter of the year, and possibly ensuing quarters of the following year. On November 24, 2003, President Bush signed the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2004. In addition, a change in Presidential administrations, Congressional majorities or in other senior federal government officials may negatively affect the rate at which the federal government purchases technology and engineering services. The federal government’s fiscal year end can also trigger increased purchase requests from customers for equipment and materials. Any increased purchase requests we receive as a result of the federal government’s fiscal year end could increase our fourth quarter revenues, but will generally decrease profit margins for that quarter, as these activities typically are not as profitable as our normal service offerings. Further, some of our subcontractors have calendar year ends and sometimes submit large billings at the end of the calendar year that can cause a spike in our revenue and expenses related to subcontracts. This will also generally decrease our profit margins as revenues generated by billings from subcontractors generally have much lower margins than our revenues generated by direct work. As a result of the above factors, period-to-period comparisons of our revenue and operating results may not be meaningful. Potential investors should not rely on these comparisons as indicators of future performance as no assurances can be given that quarterly results will not fluctuate, causing a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Our cash and cash equivalents balance on June 30, 2004, was approximately $72.4 million. Historically, our positive cash flow from operations, our proceeds from stock offerings and our available credit facility have provided us adequate liquidity and working capital to fund the operational needs and support our acquisition activities.

 

Our working capital was $103.6 million at June 30, 2004 and $32.5 million at December 31, 2003. Our working capital increased $71.1 million in the first six months of 2004 primarily for the following reasons:

 

  a $57.4 million increase in cash and cash equivalents primarily reflecting the $59.3 million of net proceeds from the public offering of 2,250,000 shares of common stock that was completed in February 2004;

 

  a $3.7 million net increase in accounts receivable and costs and estimated earnings in excess of amounts billed. Our days sales outstanding in accounts receivable (DSOs) increased to 76 days at June 30, 2004, as compared to 65 days at December 31, 2003. Our days sales outstanding are typically in the range of 75 to 80 days. Our DSOs at December 31, 2003 of 65 days were lower than our typical range because of a high level of deliveries which allowed us to bill during the month as opposed to waiting to the end of the month to bill as we traditionally have had to do.

 

  a $2.0 million decrease in work-in-process inventory due to shipments that occurred during the first six months of 2004; and

 

  a $12.4 million decrease in current liabilities, primarily resulting from $5.7 million of payments made under earn-out agreements and a $6.6 million decrease in accounts payable. The $5.7 million of payments under earn-out agreements related to acquisitions completed in the fourth quarter of 2003 and were paid by $3.6 million in shares of our common stock and $2.1 million in cash. The $6.6 million decrease in accounts payable was primarily attributable to lower sub-contractor accruals as certain of our FAST task orders were delivered allowing our vendors to be paid.

 

Our operating activities generated cash of approximately $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The net operating cash provided primarily represented net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization and the changes in working capital as discussed above. For the six months

MTC TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

ended June 30, 2003, the net operating cash generated of $3.2 million primarily represented net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization, combined with a $2.5 million of payments for working capital purposes.

 

Our investing activities used cash of approximately $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, primarily as a result of $2.2 million of cash payments made in connection with acquisitions and $1.2 million of capital expenditures. Capital expenditures include the net purchase price of $1.0 million for ownership interests in two aircraft purchased during the second quarter of 2004. Additionally, net proceeds of $0.2 million were received during the second quarter of 2004 for the sale of two aircraft in which we had an ownership interest. Cash used by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2003, consisted of $1.2 million of payments made in connection with acquisitions and $0.2 million of capital expenditures. We currently anticipate that capital expenditures for 2004 will be approximately $1.8 million for general corporate purposes.

 

Our financing activities provided net cash of approximately $59.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, primarily from the net proceeds from the public offering of 2,250,000 shares of common stock that was completed in February 2004. This compares to cash provided from financing activities of $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003, consisting of common stock issuances and surrenders related to stock option transactions.

 

In January 2004, we increased our $35 million revolving line of credit to $55 million. We can increase this line to $80 million subject to meeting certain requirements and obtaining our lenders’ approval. The agreement, which was scheduled to expire on December 31, 2005, can be extended for additional one-year terms by mutual agreement with our lenders. In July 2004, we amended the credit agreement to extend the maturity of the agreement to December 31, 2006.

 

The interest rate we would pay if we have any borrowings will range from prime rate less 25 basis points to prime rate plus 25 basis points, or the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) rate plus 150 to 225 basis points, depending on the ratio of our funded debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA).

 

Borrowings under our line of credit are secured by a general lien on our consolidated assets. In addition, we are subject to certain restrictions, and are required to meet certain financial covenants.

 

In February 2004, we completed a public offering of 2,250,000 shares of common stock. The Company’s net proceeds from the sale of the shares, after the underwriting discount and other expenses, were $59.3 million. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering (together with cash on hand and additional borrowings) for working capital and general corporate purposes, including all or a portion of the costs of any businesses we selectively decide to acquire in the future.

 

On July 1, 2004, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of CTI from the shareholders of CTI. The initial purchase price for 100% of the outstanding common stock of CTI was $45 million, paid from cash on hand at closing on July 1, 2004. In addition to the amount paid to shareholders, certain employees will receive payments, through 2007, in the amount of $2 million. It is also anticipated that the Company will realize future income tax benefits with a net present value of approximately $9 million in future periods as the result of CTI shareholders agreeing to a Section 338(h)(10) election under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

 

Part of our growth strategy is to pursue strategic acquisitions of businesses. We have made acquisitions in the past, and intend to make acquisitions in the future. Historically, we have financed our acquisitions with the proceeds of our public offerings, cash on hand and shares of our common stock. We expect to finance any future acquisitions with proceeds from common stock offerings, cash generated by operations, issuances of shares of our common stock, borrowings under our credit facility or a combination of the foregoing.

Management believes that the proceeds from the recent sale of shares of common stock by us and our cash and cash equivalents balance, together with cash generated by operations and amounts available under our credit facility, will be sufficient to fund our working capital requirements, debt service obligations, purchase price commitments for completed acquisitions and capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.

 

Our ability to generate cash from operations depends to a significant extent on winning new and re-competed contracts and/or task orders from our customers in competitive bidding processes. If a significant portion of our government contracts were terminated or if our win rate on new or re-competed contracts and task orders were to decline significantly, our operating cash flow would decrease, which would adversely affect our liquidity and capital resources.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Our exposure to market risk relates to changes in interest rates for borrowings under our revolving credit agreement. We have no outstanding borrowings under our credit agreement. We have invested a significant portion of our cash and cash equivalents in short-term, investment grade, interest-bearing securities or guaranteed obligations of the United States and its agencies. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates on these securities would not have, and during the preceding fiscal year would not have had, a significant impact on future earnings or the fair market value of the securities.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. Our management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and any change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

 

In connection with management’s evaluation, no changes during the quarter ended June 30, 2004 were identified that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II. Other Information

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. There is no litigation pending that could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
