NOTE A DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Reptron Electronics, Inc. (Reptron) is an electronics manufacturing services company providing engineering services, electronics manufacturing services and display integration services. Reptron Manufacturing Services offers full electronics manufacturing services including complex circuit board assembly, complete supply chain services and manufacturing engineering services to OEMs in a wide variety of industries including medical, industrial/instrumentation, banking, telecommunications, and office products. Reptron Display and System Integration provides value-added display design engineering and system integration services to OEMs.
In accordance with AICPA Statement of Position 90-7 Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code (SOP 90-7), the Company adopted fresh start accounting as of January 31, 2004 and the Companys emergence from Chapter 11 resulted in a new reporting entity. Under fresh start accounting, the reorganization value of the entity is allocated to the entitys assets based on fair values, and liabilities are stated at the present value of amounts to be paid determined at appropriate current interest rates. The effective date is considered to be the close of business on January 31, 2004 for financial reporting purposes. The periods presented prior to February 1, 2004 have been designated Predecessor Company and the periods subsequent to January 31, 2004 have been designated Reorganized Company. As a result of the implementation of fresh start accounting, the financial statements of the Company after the effective date are not comparable to the Companys financial statements for prior periods.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial reporting and in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The financial information included herein is unaudited and reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments for all periods presented, including fresh start accounting adjustments where applicable) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating results for the interim periods. As a result of the implementation of fresh start accounting as of January 31, 2004, the financial statements after that date are not comparable to the financial statements for prior periods. The other significant accounting policies of the Reorganized Company are consistent with those disclosed in the Companys Form 10-K filed in March 2004. The results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto, together with managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, included in the 2003 Form 10-K which was filed in March 2004.
NOTE B PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
On February 3, 2004, Reptron implemented its previously announced financial restructuring when its pre-negotiated Plan of Reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the Plan or Plan of Reorganization) became effective. Events occurring during 2003 and through February 3, 2004 related to the Chapter 11 proceedings are summarized below.
In January 2003, the Company announced that it was seeking to restructure $76.3 million principal amount of Reptrons outstanding 6¾% Convertible Subordinated Notes (the Convertible Notes). As part of this initiative, Reptron discontinued all interest payments on the Convertible Notes.
In February 2003, the Company commenced discussions with certain holders of the Convertible Notes (Ad-hoc Committee) to discuss the financial condition of the Company and the proposed restructuring. The Company engaged in extensive negotiations with the Ad-hoc Committee regarding the terms of the consensual restructuring of Reptron.

NOTE B PLAN OF REORGANIZATION - Continued
On October 28, 2003, Reptron filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Under the terms of the Plan, substantially all of Reptrons general unsecured creditors (except for holders of the Convertible Notes and certain other creditors) were to receive full payment for all prepetition claims within ninety days subsequent to the Plans effective date. The Plan was confirmed by the bankruptcy court on January 14, 2004 and became effective February 3, 2004, resulting in conversion of the $76.3 million of Convertible Notes, $6.4 million of accrued interest and $0.7 million of other liabilities into $30 million of Senior Secured Notes due in 2009 (New Notes) and the issuance of 95% of the common stock of the reorganized entity (New Common Stock). Previously outstanding common stock was also exchanged for 5% of the New Common Stock. The New Notes carry an interest rate of seven percent per annum during the first two years and eight percent per annum during the remaining three years.
In accordance with the Plan, in the first quarter of 2004 the Company, among other matters:
| Issued 5,000,000 shares of New Common Stock, |
| Issued the New Notes; |
| Adopted a new stock option plan; |
| Canceled the Convertible Notes, previously outstanding common stock, and previously outstanding stock options. |
The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2003 reflects $76.3 million principal amount of Convertible Notes along with $6.4 million of accrued and unpaid interest thereon, $0.6 million of real property lease liabilities, and $0.1 million of severance liabilities as Liabilities subject to compromise. These liabilities are reported at the amount allowed on pre-petition claims in the Chapter 11 proceedings.
Interest expense of approximately $1.3 million and $3.9 million on the Convertible Notes was accrued in the third quarter and first nine months of 2003, respectively, even though the Company discontinued interest payments on such debt. Interest expense for January 2004 excludes $0.4 million of stated contractual interest associated with the Convertible Notes.
The Company incurred $0.9 million of reorganization costs during the first three quarters of 2004, which primarily includes professional fees of approximately $0.4 million, debt issuance costs of approximately $0.2 million, and contract settlement and other miscellaneous costs of approximately $0.3 million.
The Companys emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings on February 3, 2004 resulted in a new reporting entity and adoption of fresh start reporting, in accordance with Statement of Position No. 90-7 (SOP 90-7), Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code. Although the effective date of the Plan was February 3, 2004, the Company has accounted for the consummation of the Plan as if it occurred at the close of business on January 31, 2004. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 does not give effect to any adjustments in the carrying value of assets or the amounts or classification of liabilities that were recorded upon adoption of fresh start accounting. As a result of the extinguishment of the liabilities subject to compromise, the Company recognized a reorganization gain on debt discharge amounting to $3.5 million, representing the excess of the carrying value of those liabilities compared to managements estimate of the fair value of the New Common Stock and the New Notes. As provided for in the Companys Plan of Reorganization, the holders of the liabilities subject to compromise would receive their ratable portion of the New Common Stock and New Notes in full satisfaction of those liabilities.
The following unaudited financial information reflects the implementation of the Plan as of the close of business on January 31, 2004. Reorganization adjustments have been made to reflect the discharge of debt and adoption of fresh start reporting in accordance with SOP 90-7. Accordingly, the reorganization value of the Company of $86 million, as disclosed in our Plan of Reorganization and related Disclosure Statement, limited to the aggregate carrying value of the pre-emergence assets, has been used to allocate the value of the assets and liabilities of the Company in conformity with Statement of Financial

NOTE B PLAN OF REORGANIZATION - Continued
Accounting Standards No. 141 (SFAS 141), Business Combinations. The Company determined that independent third party appraisals of its long-term tangible and intangible assets was necessary in order to allocate the reorganization value of the Company to its various assets at January 31, 2004. Those valuation procedures are nearly complete, with appraisals for certain fixed assets yet to be finalized. The fresh-start adjustments included in the table which follows represent managements estimate of adjustments necessary to record assets and liabilities at fair value with consideration given to the appraisal work that has been completed. Any future adjustments are expected to primarily result in allocations among property and equipment and intangible assets. Additionally, the Company is evaluating the effects the reorganization will have on its income tax net operating losses, other deferred tax assets, deferred tax liabilities and related valuation allowance. The amount of net operating losses available to the company may be limited in total or be subject to annual limitations. These factors will be further considered during the completion of the allocation discussed above. The Company expects to complete this allocation in the fourth quarter of 2004.

NOTE C DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Electronic Component Distribution
As a result of significant losses incurred by the Companys Electronic Component Distribution (ECD) segment during 2001 and 2002, the Company decided to exit the component distribution business either through a sale of the business or by discontinuance of its operations in 2003. Management completed a sale of identified assets of this division on June 13, 2003. Accordingly, the results of this division have been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
Revenue for the ECD division was $36.2 million for the first nine months of 2003. The ECD divisions loss before income taxes was $18.1 million in the first nine months of 2003. Included in the loss from discontinued operations in the first nine months of 2003 is an impairment writedown of $3.3 million of goodwill, an $8.1 million writedown of inventory, and a $1.7 million impairment of fixed assets. The inventory writedown was determined with consideration given to the sale proceeds for the inventory included in the sale. The goodwill impairment was also recognized in response to the near term expectations established by the board of directors in March 2003 to either sell or otherwise discontinue these operations. As a result, the long-term turnaround previously estimated by management for this segment was no longer feasible and recovery of these assets was not expected in the near term. Also included in the pre-tax loss in the first nine months of 2003 is interest expense of $0.5 million that was allocated to the electronic component distribution business. The basis for this allocation considered interest expense which could reasonably have been expected to be avoided through the collection of the electronic components distribution divisions trade receivables, proceeds from the sales of assets held for sale, and subsequent payment on the working capital credit facility. Included in loss from discontinued operations in January 2004 is $0.2 million representing an increase in estimated workers compensation costs.

Computer Products Division
The Company exited the Computer Products (CP) business through a sale of identified assets of the division that was completed on October 27, 2003. Accordingly, the results of this division have been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
Revenue for the CP division was $7.0 million for the three months ending September 30, 2003 and $23.4 million for the first nine months of 2003. The loss from operations before income taxes was $2.4 million and $3.8 million for the same periods, respectively. Interest expense of $0.1 million and $0.3 million is included in pre-tax operations during the third quarter of 2003 and the first three quarters of 2003, respectively. The basis for this allocation considered interest expense that can reasonably be expected to be avoided through the proceeds from the sales of assets held for sale, and subsequent payment on the working capital credit facility. Included in loss from discontinued operations in January 2004 is $0.3 million representing the change in estimate of the recoverability of certain assets.
NOTE D NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On January 31, 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46). FIN 46 clarifies existing accounting for whether variable interest entities should be consolidated in financial statements based upon the investees ability to finance its activities without additional financial support and whether investors possess characteristics of a controlling financial interest. FIN 46 applies to years or interim periods beginning after June 15, 2003 with certain disclosure provisions required for financial statements issued after January 31, 2003. The Company currently does not have investments in any variable interest entities. In December 2003 the FASB issued FIN No. 46 (revised), which replaced FIN No. 46. FIN No. 46 (revised) is effective immediately for certain disclosure requirements and variable interest entities referred to as special-purpose entities for periods ending after December 15, 2003 and for all other types of entities for financial statements for periods ending after March 15, 2004. The application of FIN 46 (revised) in 2003 and in the first nine months of 2004 did not have a material effect on the Companys financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and the one month period ended January 31, 2004, all options have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect on loss per share would be anti-dilutive.
The Convertible Notes were not included in the computation of earnings per share for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and the one month period ended January 31, 2004 because the conversion price of $28.50 exceeded the average market price of the common stock. Therefore, the effect would be anti-dilutive. The Convertible Notes were not included in the computation of earnings per share for the eight month period ended September 30, 2004 because the notes were cancelled effective January 31, 2004.
Prior to the effective date of the Plan of Reorganization of February 3, 2004, the Company provided for three stock option plans which were terminated in accordance with the Plan of Reorganization as of January 31, 2004. The Plan of Reorganization provides for the adoption of a new stock option plan whereby up to 10% of the Companys New Common Stock may be issuable in connection with options granted under the new plan. In the fourth quarter of 2004, the Company executed option grants for 391,666 options under the new plan. Each of these option has an option price of $10.38 and vest at various rates through 2007.

NOTE G NOTE PAYABLE TO BANK
The Company has a revolving credit facility with Congress Financial Corporation that provides up to $25 million (the Credit Agreement) to fund the Companys operations through February, 2007. The Credit Agreement contains certain covenants including a minimum quarterly measure of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) as defined by the Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with the covenants contained in the Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2004. The interest rate on the credit facility is based on the lenders prime rate plus one percent. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all of the Companys assets. This credit facility, together with the Companys available cash reserves and cash provided by operations, is expected to provide sufficient liquidity for the Company to pay for goods and services within standard terms. Under the advance rates contained in the Credit Agreement, there was approximately $5.3 million of unused available credit on September 30, 2004.
NOTE H INCOME TAXES
The Company recorded income tax expense from continuing operations of $0.8 million and an income tax benefit from discontinued operations of $0.2 million for the month ended January 31, 2004. Also, the deferred tax asset was reduced by a corresponding amount. The income tax provision resulted primarily from the reorganization gain on debt discharge that was partially offset by operating losses. During the eight month period ended September 30, 2004, the Company incurred losses before income taxes of $0.7 million. As a result, Reptron recognized a deferred tax asset and an offsetting valuation allowance of approximately $0.2 million, resulting in no income tax benefit. Realization of the tax loss carryforwards are contingent upon future taxable earnings in the appropriate jurisdiction. Each carryforward item is reviewed for expected utilization, using a more likely than not approach, based on the character of the carryforward item (credit, loss, etc.), the associated taxing jurisdiction (federal or state), the relevant history for the particular item, the applicable expiration dates, and identified actions under the Companys control in realizing the associated carryforward benefits. The Company assesses the available positive and negative evidence surrounding the recoverability of the deferred tax assets and applies judgment in estimating the amount of valuation allowance necessary under the circumstances. Management continues to assess and evaluate strategies that will enable the carryforward, or a greater portion thereof, to be utilized, and will reduce the valuation allowance appropriately for each item at such time when it is determined that the more likely than not criterion is satisfied. As noted above, the effect of the reorganization may reduce the amount of net operating losses and/or limit the amount that may be available to the company in a given period. Additionally, the carrying value of the deferred tax asset may be further adjusted during the fresh start allocation period as discussed above.

NOTE I STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
The Company follows SFAS No. 123, which establishes a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans; however, the Company has elected to account for its employee stock compensation plans using the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 with pro forma disclosures of net earnings and earnings per share, as if the fair value based method of accounting defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied.
Had compensation cost for the Companys stock option plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for stock-based employee compensation arrangements consistent with the method required by SFAS No. 123, the Companys net loss and net loss per common share would have been the pro forma amounts indicated below (in thousands):

Item 2: MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This document contains certain forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include the following: business conditions and growth in Reptrons industry and in the general economy; competitive factors; risks due to shifts in market demand; and the risk factors listed from time to time in Reptrons reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as well as assumptions regarding the foregoing. The words believe, estimate, expect, intend, anticipate, plan and similar expressions and variations thereof identify certain of such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the dates on which they were made. Reptron undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Readers are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
REORGANIZATION
On October 28, 2003, Reptron filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Under the terms of the Plan, substantially all of Reptrons general unsecured creditors (except for holders of the Convertible Notes and certain other creditors) are to receive full payment for all pre-petition claims within ninety days subsequent to the Plans effective date. The Plan was confirmed by the bankruptcy court on January 14, 2004 and became effective February 3, 2004, resulting in conversion of the $76.3 million of Convertible Notes, $6.4 million of accrued interest and $0.7 million of other liabilities into $30 million of Senior Secured Notes due in 2009 (New Notes) and the issuance of 95% of the common stock of the reorganized entity (New Common Stock). Previously outstanding common stock is being exchanged for 5% of the New Common Stock. The New Notes carry an interest rate of seven percent per annum during the first two years and eight percent per annum during the remaining three years.
In accordance with the Plan, in the first quarter of 2004 the Company, among other matters:
| Issued 5,000,000 shares of New Common Stock, |
| Issued the New Notes; |
| Adopted a new stock option plan; |
| Canceled the Convertible Notes, previously outstanding common stock, and previously outstanding stock options. |
The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2003 reflects $76.3 million principal amount of Convertible Notes along with $6.4 million of accrued and unpaid interest thereon, $0.6 million of real property lease liabilities, and $0.2 million of severance liabilities as Liabilities subject to compromise. These liabilities are reported at the amount allowed on pre-petition claims in the Chapter 11 proceedings.
Interest expense of approximately $1.3 million and $3.9 million on the Convertible Notes was accrued in the third quarter and first nine months of 2003, respectively, even though the Company discontinued interest payments on such debt. Interest expense for January 2004 excludes $0.4 million of stated contractual interest associated with the Convertible Notes.
The Company incurred $0.9 million of reorganization costs during the first three quarters of 2004, which primarily includes professional fees of approximately $0.4 million, debt issuance costs of approximately $0.2 million, and contract settlement and other miscellaneous costs of approximately $0.3 million.
15
The Companys emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings on February 3, 2004 resulted in a new reporting entity and adoption of fresh start reporting, in accordance with Statement of Position No. 90-7 (SOP 90-7), Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code. Although the effective date of the Plan was February 3, 2004, the Company accounted for the consummation of the Plan as if it occurred at the close of business on January 31, 2004. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 does not give effect to any adjustments in the carrying value of assets or the amounts or classification of liabilities that were recorded upon adoption of fresh start accounting. As a result of the extinguishment of the liabilities subject to compromise, the Company recognized a reorganization gain on debt discharge amounting to $3.5 million, representing the excess of the carrying value of those liabilities compared to managements estimate of the fair value of New Common Stock and New Notes. As provided for in the Companys Plan of Reorganization, the holders of the liabilities subject to compromise would receive their ratable portion of the New Common Stock and New Notes in full satisfaction of those liabilities.
The following unaudited financial information reflects the implementation of the Plan as of the close of business on January 31, 2004. Reorganization adjustments have been made to reflect the discharge of debt and adoption of fresh start reporting in accordance with SOP 90-7. Accordingly, the reorganization value of the Company of $86 million, as provided for in our Plan of Reorganization and Disclosure Statement of $86 million, limited to the aggregate bookvalue of the pre-emergence assets, has been used to allocate the value of the assets and liabilities of the Company in conformity with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (SFAS 141), Business Combinations. The Company determined that independent third party appraisals of its long-term tangible and intangible assets was necessary in order to allocate the reorganization value of the Company to its various assets at January 31, 2004. Those valuation procedures are nearly complete, with appraisals for certain fixed assets yet to be finalized. The fresh-start adjustments included in the table which follows represent managements estimate of adjustments necessary to record assets and liabilities at fair value with consideration given to the appraisal work that has been completed. Any future adjustments are expected to primarily result in allocations among property and equipment and intangible assets. Additionally, the Company is evaluating the effects the reorganization will have on its income tax net operating losses and other deferred tax assets and liabilities. The amount of net operating losses available to the company may be limited in total or be subject to annual limitations. These factors will be further considered during the completion of the allocation discussed above. The Company expects to complete this allocation in the fourth quarter of 2004.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Electronic Component Distribution
As a result of significant losses incurred by the Companys Electronic Component Distribution (ECD) segment during 2001 and 2002, the Company decided to exit the component distribution business either through a sale of the business or by discontinuance of its operations in 2003. Management completed a sale of identified assets of this division on June 13, 2003. Accordingly, the results of this division have been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
Revenue for the ECD division was $13.8 million for the three months ending June 30, 2003 and $36.2 million for the first nine months of 2003. The ECD divisions loss before income taxes was $18.1 million in the first nine months of 2003. Included in the loss from discontinued operations in the first quarter of 2003 is an impairment writedown of $3.3 million of goodwill, an $8.1 million writedown of inventory, and a $1.7 million impairment of fixed assets. The inventory writedown was determined with consideration given to the sale proceeds for the inventory included in the sale. The goodwill impairment was also recognized in response to the near term expectations established by the board of directors in March 2003 to either sell or otherwise discontinue these operations. As a result, the long-term turnaround previously estimated by management for this segment was no longer feasible and recovery of these assets was not expected in the near term. Also included in the pre-tax loss in the first nine months of 2003 is interest expense of $0.5 million that was allocated to the electronic component distribution business. The basis for this allocation considered interest expense which could reasonably have been expected to be avoided through the collection of the electronic components distribution divisions trade receivables, proceeds from the sales of assets held for sale, and subsequent payment on the working capital credit facility. Included in loss from discontinued operations in January 2004 is $0.2 million representing an increase in estimated of workers compensation costs.
Computer Products Division
The Company exited the Computer Products (CP) business through a sale of identified assets of the division that was completed on October 27, 2003. Accordingly, the results of this division have been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
Revenue for the CP division was $7.0 million for the three months ending September 30, 2003 and $23.4 million for the first nine months of 2003. The loss from operations before income taxes was $2.4 million and $3.8 million for the same periods, respectively. Interest expense of $0.1 million and $0.3 million is included in pre-tax operations during the third quarter of 2003 and the first three quarters of 2003, respectively. The basis for this allocation considered interest expense that can reasonably be expected to be avoided through the proceeds from the sales of assets held for sale, and subsequent payment on the working capital credit facility. Included in loss from discontinued operations in January 2004 is $0.3 million representing the change in estimate of the recoverability of certain assets.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
As discussed above, the Companys Plan of Reorganization became effective on February 3, 2004. As a result of the implementation of fresh start accounting as of January 31, 2004, the Companys results of operations after that date are not comparable to results reported in prior periods because of differences in the bases of accounting and the capital structure for the Predecessor Company and the Reorganized Company. To facilitate comparisons to prior periods, the results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, discussed below, includes the one month period ended January 31, 2004 for the Predecessor Company and the eight months ended September 30, 2004 for the Reorganized Company.
Net Sales. Total third quarter net sales decreased $4.6 million, or 11.8% from $39.0 million in the third quarter of 2003 to $34.4 million in the third quarter of 2004. Total sales decreased $7.6 million, or 6.8% from $113.2 million in the first nine months of 2003 to $105.5 million in the first nine months of 2004. These decreases are primarily attributable to decreased demand of electronic voting equipment from our customer in the governmental segment. During 2003 and 2004 we transacted business with approximately 40 to 50 customers. The largest three customers in the third quarter of 2004 represented approximately 14.6%, 13.3% and 11.0%, respectively, of net sales as compared to 28.1%, 9.3%, and 6.0%, respectively, of third quarter 2003 net sales. The largest three customers in the first nine months of 2004 represented approximately 12.4%, 11.7% and 12.4%, respectively, of net sales as compared to 19.9%, 12.3%, and 8.0%, respectively, of net sales in the first nine months of 2003.

Gross Profit. Total 2004 third quarter gross profit decreased $0.5 million, or 9.4%, from $5.3 million in the third quarter of 2003 to $4.8 million in the third quarter of 2004. The gross profit percentage was 13.9% in the third quarter of 2004 as compared to 13.5% in the third quarter of 2003. This increase in gross profit percentage is primarily caused by a reduction in the cost of direct materials as a percentage of sales due to easing price pressures primarily in the semiconductor industry. Gross profit decreased $2.2 million, or 14.7% in the first nine months of 2004 from $15.0 million in the nine months of 2003 to $12.8 million in the nine months of 2004. The gross profit percentage was 12.1% in the first nine months of 2004 as compared to 13.3% in the first nine months of 2003. This variance in gross profit percentage is primarily attributable to lower fixed cost absorption rates at the lower sales levels experienced in 2004.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased $0.4 million, or 9.6%, from $4.5 million in the third quarter of 2003 to $4.1 million in the third quarter of 2004. These expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased from 11.7% in the third quarter of 2003 to 12.0% in the third quarter of 2004. SG&A expenses decreased $2.0 million, or 13.9% from $14.0 million in the first three quarters of 2003 to $12.1 million in the first three quarters of 2004. These expenses, as a percentage of net sales, decreased from 12.4% in the first three quarters of 2003 to 11.4% in the first three quarters of 2004. These year to date decreases in SG&A expenses are primarily the result of reductions of these costs from prior periods as a result of our reorganization and the divesture of the distribution and computer products divisions.
Interest Expense. Net interest expense decreased $0.8 million, or 52.0%, from $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2003 to $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2004. Net interest expense decreased $2.7 million, or 58.1%, from $4.7 million in the first three quarters 2003 to $2.0 million in the first three quarters of 2004. These decreases are primarily the result of the discharge of $76.3 million of Convertible Notes and the issuance of $30.0 million of Senior Secured Notes in accordance with the Plan of Reorganization. Approximately $1.3 million and $3.9 million of interest expense was recorded in the third quarter and first nine months of 2003, respectively, related to the Convertible Notes as compared to $0.5 million and $1.4 million of interest expense for the third quarter of 2004 and the eight months ending September 30, 2004, respectively, associated with the Senior Secured Notes. No interest expense was recorded for the one month ended January 31, 2004 related to the Convertible Notes. The remaining decrease in net interest expense is the result of a decrease in average outstanding debt, excluding the Convertible Notes and Senior Secured Notes, of $17.1 million from $28.6 million in the first three quarters of 2003 to $11.5 million in the first three quarters of 2004. Interest expense of $0.1 million and $0.8 million was allocated to the discontinued operations of our electronic component distribution business and computer products division in the third quarter of 2003 and the first nine months of 2003, respectively. The basis for this allocation was interest expense which could reasonably have been expected to be avoided through the collection of our distribution divisions trade receivables, proceeds from the sales of assets held for sale, and subsequent payment on our working capital credit facility.

Income Taxes. The Company recorded income tax expense from continuing operations of $0.8 million and an income tax benefit from discontinued operations of $0.2 million for the month ended January 31, 2004. Also, the deferred tax asset was reduced by a corresponding amount. The income tax provision resulted primarily from the reorganization gain on debt discharge that was partially offset by operating losses. During the eight month period ended September 30, 2004, we incurred losses before income taxes of $0.2 million. As a result, we recognized a deferred tax asset and an offsetting valuation allowance of $0.1 million, resulting in no income tax benefit. Realization of the tax loss carryforwards are contingent upon future taxable earnings in the appropriate jurisdiction. Each carryforward item is reviewed for expected utilization, using a more likely than not approach, based on the character of the carryforward item (credit, loss, etc.), the associated taxing jurisdiction (federal or state), the relevant history for the particular item, the applicable expiration dates, and identified actions under our control in realizing the associated carryforward benefits. We assess the available positive and negative evidence surrounding the recoverability of the deferred tax assets and apply judgement in estimating the amount of valuation allowance necessary under the circumstances. We continue to assess and evaluate strategies that will enable the carryforward, or a greater portion thereof, to be utilized, and will reduce the valuation allowance appropriately for each item at such time when it is determined that the more likely than not criterion is satisfied. As noted above, the effect of the reorganization may reduce the amount of net operating losses and/or limit the amount that may be available to the company in a given period. Additionally, the carrying value of the deferred tax asset may be further adjusted during the fresh start allocation period as discussed above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of September 30, 2004, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1.3 million, restricted cash of $1.0 million and working capital of $9.8 million. We primarily finance our operations through, bank credit lines, operating cash flows, and short-term financing through supplier credit lines. Net cash provided by or used in operating activities has historically been provided by net income (loss) levels combined with fluctuations in inventory, accounts receivable and accounts payable. Cash consumed by continuing operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2004, was approximately $1.0 million. This consisted primarily of $0.6 million of net income from continuing operations, $3.5 million of non-cash depreciation and amortization charges, $0.6 million reduction of deferred tax assets, $0.6 million reduction in other assets, offset by $3.5 million of reorganization gain on debt discharge, $0.7 million increase in accounts receivable, $1.2 million increase in inventory, $0.6 million decrease in accounts payable and, $0.3 million decrease in accrued liabilities.
Capital expenditures totaled approximately $1.0 million in the first nine months of 2004. These capital expenditures were primarily for the acquisition of manufacturing equipment. These purchases were funded by the working capital credit facility, as defined below.
Credit Agreement. The Company has a revolving credit facility with Congress Financial Corporation that provides up to $25 million (the Credit Agreement) to fund the Companys operations through February, 2007. The Credit Agreement contains certain covenants including a minimum quarterly measure of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) as defined by the Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with the covenants contained in the Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2004. The Credit Agreement limits the amount of capital expenditures and prohibits the payment of dividends without the lenders consent. The interest rate on the credit facility is based on the lenders prime rate plus one percent. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all of the Companys assets. Under the advance rates contained in the Credit Agreement, there was approximately $5.3 million of unused available credit on September 30, 2004.
Management believes that the credit facility, together with the Companys available cash reserves and cash provided by operations, will be sufficient to meet our foreseeable capital requirements and working capital needs of our operations for at least the next twelve months. However, future liquidity and cash requirements will depend on a wide range of factors including the level of business in existing operations, credit lines extended by lenders and trade suppliers, the need for expansion of manufacturing operations in foreign countries (especially China) and capital expenditure requirements. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts and on terms acceptable to management.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Companys financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses during the reporting period and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and assumptions are based upon the Companys continuous evaluation of historical results and anticipated future events. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
20
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) defines critical accounting polices as those that are, in managements view, most important to the portrayal of the Companys financial condition and results of operations and those that require significant judgments and estimates. The Company believes the following critical accounting policies involve the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements:
Fresh Start Accounting. In accordance with AICPA Statement of Position 90-7 Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code (SOP 90-7), the Company adopted fresh start accounting as of January 31, 2004 and the Companys emergence from chapter 11 resulted in a new reporting entity. Under fresh start accounting, the reorganization value of the entity is allocated to the entitys assets based on fair values, and liabilities are stated at the present value of amounts to be paid determined at appropriate current interest rates. The effective date is considered to be the close of business on January 31, 2004 for financial reporting purposes. The periods presented prior to February 1, 2004 have been designated Predecessor Company and the periods subsequent to January 31, 2004 have been designated Reorganized Company. As a result of the implementation of fresh start accounting, the financial statements of the Company after the effective date are not comparable to the Companys financial statements for prior periods.
Valuation of Receivables. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from customer defaults. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers considering among other things, the customers payment history and current ability to pay. A provision for uncollectible amounts is adjusted based on these evaluations and historical experience. If the financial condition of a customer were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of that customers ability to make payments to the Company, additional reserves may be required.
Valuation of Inventories. Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost or estimated market value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out and average cost methods. The Companys inventories are comprised, in part, of high technology components used in assemblies produced under contract with our customers. Inventories in excess of demand may be subject to technological obsolescence.
The Company evaluates inventories for excess, obsolescence or other factors that may render inventories unmarketable at normal margins. Write-downs are recorded so that inventories reflect the approximate net realizable value and take into consideration the Companys contractual provisions with its customers and suppliers. If assumptions about future demand change or the financial strength of customers diminish significantly or actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional write-downs of inventories may be required. In any case, actual amounts could be different from those estimated.
Goodwill. In assessing the Companys goodwill for impairment in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Boards (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 (SFAS 142), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the Company is required to assess the valuation of its reporting units, which involves making significant assumptions about the future cash flows and overall performance of its reporting units. Should these assumptions or the structure of the reporting units change in the future based upon market conditions or changes in business strategy, the Company may be required to record impairment charges to its goodwill. In 2003, goodwill of approximately $3.3 million which was recorded in conjunction with a prior business acquisition by our electronic component distribution division, was expensed and included in the loss from discontinued operations. The Company updated its analysis in response to filing a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the fourth quarter of 2003. This discounted cash flow analysis indicated that the goodwill recorded as a result of the purchase of a flat panel display business was fully impaired. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $7.8 million in 2003, which was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2003. As discussed above, the Company is in the final stages of completing the process of allocating the reorganization value among the companys assets in the accordance with the implementation of fresh start accounting.
21
Deferred Income Taxes. The carrying value of the Companys deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the Companys ability to generate sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions. Should the Company determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of its deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be expensed in the period such determination was made. The Company presently records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not expected to be realized. While the Company has considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, in the event that the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount (including the valuation allowance), an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made.
Contingencies. The Company is the subject of various threatened or pending legal actions and contingencies in the normal course of conduct of its business. The Company provides for costs related to these matters when a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company assesses the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes to these matters, as well as the range of potential losses. A determination of the reserves required, if any, is made after careful analysis. The required reserves may change in the future due to new developments.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On January 31, 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (FIN 46). FIN 46 clarifies existing accounting for whether variable interest entities should be consolidated in financial statements based upon the investees ability to finance its activities without additional financial support and whether investors possess characteristics of a controlling financial interest. FIN 46 applies to years or interim periods beginning after June 15, 2003 with certain disclosure provisions required for financial statements issued after January 31, 2003. The Company currently does not have investments in any variable interest entities. In December 2003 the FASB issued FIN No. 46 (revised), which replaced FIN No. 46. FIN No. 46 (revised) is effective immediately for certain disclosure requirements and variable interest entities referred to as special-purpose entities for periods ending after December 15, 2003 and for all other types of entities for financial statements for periods ending after March 15, 2004. The application of FIN 46 (revised) in 2003 and in the first quarter of 2004 did not have a material effect on the Companys financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Item 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Since the filing of our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed March 30, 2004, there have been no material changes in our market risk during the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Market risk information is contained under the caption Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk of our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Our management evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (who is also the Acting Chief Financial Officer), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (who is also our Principal Accounting Officer), does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control.
The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
