NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:
   
  The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 26, 2017, the condensed consolidated statements of income for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended February 26, 2017 and February 28, 2016 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the twenty-six weeks then ended, respectively, have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made.
   
  The condensed consolidated balance sheet at August 28, 2016 is derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 28, 2016. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
   
2. INVENTORIES
   
  Inventories consist primarily of raw material, work-in-progress (WIP) and finished goods and are valued at the lower of cost or market:

 

   February 28, 2016   August 28, 2016 
         
Raw material  $1,538,818   $1,598,874 
WIP   965,331    913,494 
Finished goods   670,455    535,144 
   $3,174,604   $3,047,512 

 

3. OTHER ASSETS
   
  Goodwill and other assets consist of costs resulting from business acquisitions which total $2,368,452 at February 28, 2016 (net of accumulated amortization of $344,812 recorded prior to the adoption of ASC 350 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets). At August 28, 2016, the Company also had deferred financing costs of $6,684 (net of accumulated amortization of $13,368) incurred in connection with a prior mortgage discussed in Note 4. These deferred financing costs were written off during the Company’s fiscal 2017 second quarter when the prior mortgage was paid off.
   
4. DEBT AND LINE OF CREDIT:
   
  During the quarter ended February 26, 2017, the Company entered into a new mortgage agreement with a new bank. The new mortgage paid off the prior mortgage of $3.6 million in its entirety and released all obligations in connection with that mortgage including the requirement to maintain a restricted cash balance of $1.25 million. The new mortgage was for $3.7 million and carries an interest rate of 3.99% fixed for five years after which the interest rate will reset at a fixed rate for the subsequent five years. The mortgage requires monthly payments of $22,511 based on a 20 year amortization schedule and matures in February 2027. The mortgage is secured by all assets of the Company.

 

6 

 

 

  The Company also entered into a revolving credit agreement with the new bank. The revolving credit agreement provides for a maximum loan of $1,500,000 with interest at the thirty day LIBOR rate plus 2.0% with a base rate of 2.75%. The revolver has a maturity date of February 15, 2018. There were no amounts borrowed on the revolver at February 26, 2017.
   
  Both agreements provide for certain restrictive covenants including a minimum tangible net worth and a minimum working capital to be tested monthly beginning March 31, 2017. At February 26, 2017, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.
   
5. INCOME TAXES:
   
  The Company’s effective tax rate for its fiscal second quarter ended February 26, 2017 was a negative (37.5)% as compared to negative (103.9)% for the quarter ended February 28, 2016. The year-to-date effective tax rate was a negative (37.7)% in the current year as compared to a negative (422.7)% for the prior year. The Company has determined that certain of its activities the Company performs qualify for the Research & Development tax credit (R&D credit) as defined by Internal Revenue Code Section 41. During the fiscal 2016 first quarter the Company recognized tax benefits related to R&D tax credits which were generated in a prior year which lowered the overall effective tax rate. In addition, during the Company’s fiscal 2016 second quarter, the Federal R&D tax credit law was retroactively renewed for calendar year 2015 and also made permanent going forward. Since for calendar year 2015 the law was enacted retroactively, any effects are recognized as a component of income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations in the financial statements in the interim period that the law was enacted, which in this case was the Company’s fiscal 2016 second quarter.
   
6. CLAIMS AND CONTINGENCIES:
   
  The Company is exposed to a number of asserted and unasserted claims encountered in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of any such claim cannot be predicted, management believes that there are no pending legal proceedings or claims against or involving the Company for which the outcome is likely to have a material adverse effect upon its financial position or results of operations.

8. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:
   
  In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This guidance defines how companies report revenues from contracts with customers and also requires enhanced disclosures. In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board voted to defer the effective date by one year, with early adoption on the original effective date permitted. ASU 2014-09 was to be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within the annual reporting period. In August 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU 2015-14”). The amendments in ASU 2015-14 defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities by one year. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of the adoption of this update on the consolidated financial statements.
   
  In March 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from most leases. The main difference between previous U.S. GAAP and ASU 2016-02 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous U.S. GAAP. For lessors, the guidance included in ASU 2016-02 modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. ASU 2016-02 provides specific guidance for determining whether a contractual arrangement contains a lease, lease classification by lessees and lessors, initial and subsequent measurement of leases by lessees and lessors, sale and leaseback transactions, transition, and financial statement disclosures. ASU 2016-02 requires entities to use a modified retrospective approach to apply its guidance, and includes a number of optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply. For public entities, the amendments included in ASU 2016-02 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of the adoption of this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.
   
  In April 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Under the ASU, an entity presents such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense. We adopted this ASU in the second quarter of 2017. As a result of the adoption of this ASU, we recorded $39,336 in financing costs related to our new mortgage, as described in footnote 4, as a contra-liability reducing Long-term debt on the balance sheets. This ASU had no effect on our results of operations or liquidity.

Item 2.

 

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

AND

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:

 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discuss our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.

 

We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the result of which forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Results may differ from these estimates due to actual outcomes being different from those on which we based our assumptions. The estimates and judgments utilized are reviewed by management on an ongoing basis and by the audit committee of our board of directors at the end of each quarter prior to the public release of our financial results.

 

The critical accounting policies and estimates followed in the preparation of the financial information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are the same as those described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 28, 2016. Refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for detailed information on accounting policies.

 

Results of Operations:

 

Net sales were $6,314,000 for the thirteen weeks ending February 26, 2017, a decrease of 26% from the same period of the prior year. Year-to-date sales in fiscal 2017 are $12,644,000 compared to $18,220,000 in the prior year which equates to a 31% decrease. Total Company sales by product markets are as follows:

Sales from the Company’s ATV and Motorcycle markets were down 31% for the fiscal 2017 second quarter as compared to the prior year and also down 34% year-to-date as compared to the prior year. During the fiscal 2017 first quarter, the Company’s primary customer began retooling one of their production facilities, which resulted in no product being shipped for some of the Company’s product lines for part of the first quarter. The retooling of the production facility also negatively affected the Company’s fiscal second quarter sales as well.

 

During the Company’s fiscal 2017 second quarter, the Company’s largest customer issued a public disclosure that it was immediately discontinuing one of its product lines that the Company provides parts for. The Company has halted all production of parts related to the program and is working with its customer on selling the remaining inventory. The Company does not expect to incur a loss on the sale of that inventory. The discontinuance of these parts will negatively affect future sales as the Company works to replace the programs lost.

 

Sales from the Company’s energy business for the fiscal 2017 second quarter increased by almost fourfold over the prior year’s second quarter. Year-to-date sales as of February 26, 2017, experienced a slight decrease as compared to the prior year-to-date period. During the Company’s fiscal 2017 second quarter, it starting shipping product in its shale fracturing business for programs that had been mostly dormant over the last few fiscal quarters.

 

Sales from the Company’s aerospace, defense and other markets were up slightly in both the fiscal 2017 second quarter and year-to-date periods as compared to the prior year. The sales were affected by a decrease in automotive parts sales offset by an increase in aerospace and defense sales. The automotive sales come from programs that appear to be sporadic in nature, and it is unclear to the Company how much of the existing automotive business will repeat in future periods. This unpredictability in the automotive sales will potentially lead to percentage swings in the Company’s sales from quarter to quarter. The increase in aerospace and defense sales were derived mostly from new programs and customers.

 

Gross margin in the fiscal 2017 second quarter decreased to 3.3% from 7.6% in the prior year quarter. With the lower overall sales in the fiscal 2017 second quarter, gross margins were negatively affected by a higher level of fixed manufacturing costs as a percent of sales than the prior year’s second quarter. Year-to-date gross margin in fiscal 2017 was 4.1%, which was a decrease over the prior year-to-date gross margin of 8.4% with the decrease attributable to the higher relative level of fixed expense.

 

Selling and administrative expense of $721,000 for the quarter ending February 26, 2017 was comparable to the prior year period total of $716,000. Year-to-date selling and administrative expense of $1,482,000 was $62,000 higher than the comparable prior year period due primarily to increased payroll costs year over year in the Company’s fiscal first quarter.

 

Interest expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 was $66,000, which was a $12,000 decrease from the prior year quarter. Year-to-date interest expense of $134,000 was lower than the previous year-to-date period by $27,000. The lower interest costs are a result of the lower overall level of long-term debt.

 

The Company’s effective tax rate for its fiscal second quarter ended February 26, 2017 was a negative (37.5)% as compared to negative (103.9)% for the quarter ended February 28, 2016. The year-to-date effective tax rate was a negative (37.7)% in the current year as compared to a negative (422.7)% for the prior year. The Company has determined that certain of its activities the Company performs qualify for the Research & Development tax credit (R&D credit) as defined by Internal Revenue Code Section 41. During the fiscal 2016 first quarter the Company recognized tax benefits related to R&D tax credits which were generated in a prior year which lowered the overall effective tax rate. In addition, during the Company’s fiscal 2016 second quarter, the Federal R&D tax credit law was retroactively renewed for calendar year 2015 and also made permanent going forward. Since for calendar year 2015 the law was enacted retroactively, any effects are recognized as a component of income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations in the financial statements in the interim period that the law was enacted, which in this case was the Company’s fiscal 2016 second quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

 

On February 26, 2017 working capital was $7,494,000 as compared to $7,081,000 at August 28, 2016. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities at February 26, 2017 was 2.82 to 1.0 compared to 2.86 to 1.0 at August 28, 2016. The change in working capital came primarily from the reclassification of $1,250,000 of restricted cash to cash and cash equivalents that ensued following the Company closing on a new mortgage for its building as discussed below offset by a decrease in the level of accounts receivable.

 

During the quarter ended February 26, 2017, the Company entered into a new mortgage agreement with a new bank. The mortgage paid off the prior mortgage in its entirety and released all obligations in connection with that mortgage including the requirement to maintain a restricted cash balance of $1.25 million. The new mortgage was for $3.7 million and carries an interest rate of 3.99% fixed for five years after which the interest rate will reset at a fixed rate for the subsequent five years. The mortgage requires monthly payments of $22,511 based on a 20 year amortization schedule and matures in February 2027. The mortgage is secured by all assets of the Company.

 

The Company also entered into a revolving credit agreement with the new bank. The revolving credit agreement provides for a maximum loan of $1,500,000 with interest at the thirty day LIBOR rate plus 2.0% with a base rate of 2.75%. The revolver has a maturity date of February 15, 2018.

 

Both agreements provide for certain restrictive covenants including a minimum tangible net worth and a minimum working capital. At February 26, 2017, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

 

It is the Company’s belief that its current cash balance, plus future internally generated funds and its line of credit, will be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its working capital requirements through the next 12 months.
