Electronic Control Security Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

 

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Electronic Control Security Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively "the Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and Article 8.03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2013. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Certain items in prior period information have been reclassified to conform the current year’s presentation.

 

Note 2 - Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of the Company’s common stock, including common stock equivalents outstanding. Certain common stock equivalents consisting of stock options, warrants, convertible debentures and convertible preferred stock that would have an anti-dilutive effect were not included in the diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

The following is a reconciliation of the denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations:

 

   Three Months 
   Ended September 30, 
   2012   2011 
Denominators:          
Weighted-average shares outstanding used to compute basic earnings per share   11,867,146    10,560,466 
           
Effect of dilutive stock options   -    115,909 
Weighted-average shares outstanding and dilutive securities used to compute dilutive earnings per share   11,867,146    10,676,375 

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, there were outstanding potential common stock equivalent shares of 4,004,948 and 3,720,195, respectively, which were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. These potential dilutive common stock equivalent shares may be dilutive to future diluted earnings per share.

 

Note 3 - Inventories

 

Inventories consist of the following:

   September 30,   June 30, 
   2012   2012 
Raw materials  $309,717   $281,021 
Work-in-process   332,408    277,570 
Finished goods   1,407,779    1,482,076 
Subtotal   2,049,904    2,040,667 
Allowance   (80,000)   (80,000)
   $1,969,904   $1,960,667

Note 4 - Due to Officers and Shareholders

 

These amounts are composed of the following at September 30, 2012 and June 30, 2012:

 

   September 30   June 30 
   2012   2012 
Interest bearing advances, due on demand  $189,800   $197,756 
Accrued compensation and other costs   948,246    827,683 
   $1,138,046   $1,025,439 

 

Note 5 – New Authoritative Pronouncements

 

The Company has considered all new accounting pronouncements and has concluded that there are no new pronouncements that may have a material impact on results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, based on current information.

 

Note 6 – Financing Agreements

 

On March 27, 2012, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, ECSI International Inc., and Atlantic Stewardship Bank (the “Bank”) entered an agreement pursuant to which the maturity date for the amounts outstanding under the credit line established in March 2011 has been extended to November 15, 2012. The principal amount outstanding at September 30, 2012 and June 30, 2012 was $475,000. All other terms of the agreements were unchanged.

 

Note 7 – Legal Proceeding

 

On March 7, 2012, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, ECSI International, Inc. filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey against Lockheed Martin Global Training and Logistics (“Lockheed Martin”). The lawsuit, as detailed in the First Amended Complaint and Demand for Trial by Jury (the “Amended Complaint”) dated March 29, 2012, alleges breach of contract and tortious interference by Lockheed Martin and seeks actual damages of approximately $978,000, as well as punitive damages, costs and such further relief as the Court deems equitable and proper. In addition, the Amended Complaint seeks payment under Lockheed Martin’s payment bonds required by the United States Navy Facilities Engineering Command. At September 30, 2012, and June 30, 2012, the Company has included in its accounts receivable (prior to allowances) the amount of the actual damages claimed. Lockheed Martin has indicated that it may file counterclaim against ECSI International, Inc. seeking reimbursement of approximately $200,000 in costs alleged to have been incurred by Lockheed Martin on the project related to the above amount due to us. We are aggressively pursuing our claim against Lockheed Martin and will vigorously defend against a counterclaim if one is asserted. Discovery has been proceeding.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes related to those statements. Some of our discussion is forward-looking and involves risks and uncertainties. For information regarding risk factors that could have a material adverse effect on our business, refer to the risk factors section of the Annual Report for the year ended June 30, 2012 on Form 10-K.

 

CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Our Company and its representatives may from time to time make written or verbal forward-looking statements, including statements contained in this report and other Company filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in our reports to shareholders. Statements that relate to other than strictly historical facts, such as statements about our plans and strategies, expectations for future financial performance, new and existing products and technologies, and markets for our products are forward-looking statements. Generally, the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "will" and other similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are and will be based on our management's then-current views and assumptions regarding future events and operating performance, and speak only as of their dates. Investors are cautioned that such statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical or anticipated results due to many factors including, but not limited to, our current and future capital needs, uncertainty of capital funding, our clients' ability to cancel contracts with little or no penalty, ongoing delays by federal agencies of approved projects; cash flow impact arising from the dispute with prime contractors; government initiatives to implement Homeland Security measures, the likelihood of completing transactions for which we have entered into letters of intent, the state of the worldwide economy, competition, customers’ ability to pay our invoices within our standard credit terms, and other risks detailed in our Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and other Securities and Exchange Commission filings. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. 

 

OVERVIEW

 

We design, develop, manufacture and market stand-alone and fully integrated state-of-the-art entry control and perimeter intrusion detection systems for Department of Defense, Department of Energy, nuclear power stations, and various international customers. We offer U.S. Air Force certified technology and a comprehensive services portfolio that includes: site survey/risk assessment, design & engineering, systems manufacturing and integration, factory acceptance testing, installation supervision, commissioning, operations and maintenance training.

 

We work closely with architects, engineers, systems integrators, construction managers and owners in the development and design of security monitoring and control systems that will afford a normative but secure environment for management, staff and visitors. To support such efforts, ECSI’s team of key personnel are technically accomplished and fully familiar with advances in planning, programming and designing systems utilizing standard peripheral components, mini/micro architecture, user friendly software/firmware selection and application.

 

Our mission is to establish ourselves as a Small Business (SB) prime contractor to take advantage of the small business opportunities that exist today and in the forseeable future. To achieve that end we have formed a team of both small and large corporation agreements to support our company in the pursuit of this market. We believe that our past performance and in depth experience as well as that of our teaming partners will place us in a lead position to capture a good share of this market.

 

We entered into strategic partnerships, teaming, and representative relationships with major multi-national corporations in each of the industries that comprise our target markets. These companies generally enjoy a strong market presence in their respective industries and we believe that our teaming agreements with these entities afford us added credibility. These entities frequently subcontract our services and purchase our products in connection with larger projects and, in turn, support the company on projects we are pursuing as the prime contractor. During fiscal 2011, we entered into teaming and marketing agreements with ITSI, SAIC, Fortis, Calnet, Honeywell, Culmen, ERIS, and Boeing.

 

During fiscal 2012, we submitted proposals on projects for Department of Defense facilities and certain nuclear power stations in the United States and Southeast Asia valued at approximately $146,550,000. We anticipate decisions relating to these proposals during fiscal 2013.

Recent Developments

 

Our revenues and results from operations for the year ended June 30, 2012, and the quarter ended September 30, 2012, were negatively impacted by the ongoing delays by agencies of the U.S. Government in proceeding with approved projects, funding projects already awarded, and in awarding new contracts. We have invested significant time and personnel resources in fiscal 2012 in providing proposals on future projects, both as a prime contractor (Small Business) and as a subcontractor. We are awaiting the results of the bidding process. Our cash flow and liquidity continue to be severely impacted with the refusal by Lockheed Martin to pay us for the accounts receivable due from them totaling almost $1 million. These amounts are the subject of litigation, as described in Item 3 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012 initiated by us in March 2012.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires that we make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management continually evaluates the accounting policies and estimates it uses to prepare the consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management.

 

We do not participate in, nor has there been created, any off-balance sheet special purpose entities or other off-balance sheet financing. In addition, we do not enter into any derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

 

We have identified the following critical accounting policies that affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

INVENTORY VALUATION

 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. We routinely evaluate the composition of our inventory to identify obsolete or otherwise impaired inventories. Inventories identified as impaired are evaluated to determine if reserves are required. We currently have a reserve of $80,000 against inventory.

 

ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

 

The allowance for doubtful accounts is comprised of two parts, a specific account analysis and a general reserve. Accounts where specific information indicates a potential loss may exist are reviewed and a specific reserve against amounts due is recorded. As additional information becomes available, such specific account reserves are updated. Additionally, a general reserve is applied to the aging categories based on historical collection and write-off experience.

 

ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES

 

We record a valuation allowance to our deferred tax assets for the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. While we consider historical levels of income, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, in the event that we determine that we would be able to realize deferred tax assets in the future in excess of the net amount recorded, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination has been made. Likewise, should we determine that we would not be able to realize all or part of the net deferred tax asset in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged against income in the period such determination was made.

 

FAIR VALUE OF EQUITY INSTRUMENTS

 

The valuation of certain items, including valuation of warrants or stock options that may be offered as compensation for goods or services, involve significant estimations with underlying assumptions judgmentally determined. Warrants are valued using the most reliable measure of fair value, such as the value of the goods or services rendered, if obtainable. If such value is not readily obtainable, the valuation of warrants and stock options are then based on the Black-Scholes valuation model, which involves estimates of stock volatility, expected life of the instruments and other assumptions.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011

 

REVENUES. We had net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012 of $432,074 compared to $1,114,431 in the corresponding period in 2011, representing a decrease of approximately 61%. The decrease in net revenues is primarily attributable to a decrease in deliverable products and support services billings resulting from continuing delays in release of funding at the Department of Defense and Department of Energy on projects where we serve as a subcontractor as well as at other customers. The budget constraints and budget uncertainty at the U.S. government agencies have significantly reduced the issuance of orders and delayed projects for all participants in our industry.

 

GROSS MARGINS. Gross margins for the three months ended September 30, 2012 were 54% as compared to 62% for the corresponding period in 2011. The decrease in gross margins for the three months is primarily attributable to the decrease in revenues discussed above, substantially offset by a change in the mix of equipment sales and support services billings and a reduction in personnel costs due to the lower revenues.

 

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses were $24,931 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $34,506 for the corresponding three months in 2011. The reduction in research and development expenses was due to reductions in personnel costs.

 

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $239,805 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $523,135 for the corresponding three months in 2011. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the corresponding period in 2011 is primarily attributable to an increase in 2011 in our allowance for doubtful accounts in the amount of $200,000, and to a 25% reduction in the three months of 2012 in other components of the selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily reduced personnel costs.

 

INCOME (LOSS) FROM OPERATIONS. The loss from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2012 of $(32,852) compared to a profit of $132,009 for the corresponding three months of 2011. The decrease in income from operations during the 2012 period compared to the 2011 period was primarily attributable to the lower revenues, offset by reductions in personnel costs.

 

DIVIDENDS RELATED TO CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK. We recorded dividends totaling $35,847 on our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock in the three months ended September 30, 2012 and $39,816 in the corresponding three months in 2011. The reduction in these dividends is due to conversion in fiscal 2011 of a portion of the outstanding Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. In lieu of a cash payment, we have elected, under the terms of these securities, to add this amount to the stated value of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.

 

These dividends are non-cash and, therefore, have no impact on our net worth, cash flow or liquidity.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Our cash flow has been adversely impacted by the refusal of Lockheed Martin to forward to us the proceeds of accounts receivable payable to us. This matter is currently the subject matter of litigation initiated by us in March 2012 and discussed in Item 3 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012. Nonetheless, we believe that cash on hand, together with anticipated collection of accounts receivable during the short term, will be sufficient to provide for our working capital needs for the next 12 months. However, we may need to raise funds in order to allow for shortfalls in anticipated revenue or to expand existing capacities and/or to satisfy any additional significant purchase orders that we may receive. At the present time, we have no assurances of additional revenue beyond the firm purchase orders we have received. We are in discussions with Atlantic Stewardship Bank regarding the existing line of credit, which was fully utilized with a balance of $475,000 at September 30, 2012. The line of credit is due on November 15, 2012.

 

Our working capital was approximately $490,000 at September 30, 2012 as compared to $501,000 at June 30, 2012.

Accounts receivable were reduced slightly in the three months ended September 30, 2012. The accounts receivable increased by $544,932 in the three months ended September 30, 2011 due to the delays in payments by Lockheed Martin.

 

Accounts payable and accrued expenses have increased by $73,034 to $1,105,233 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to an increase of $169,031 in the corresponding three months in 2011.

 

In order to conserve our cash resources, we did not purchase any property, plant and equipment during the three months ended September 30, 2012. We do not have any major material commitments for capital expenditures going forward. 

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, management and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.

 

During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, there was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
