The business of the Company was started in 1963 as a sole proprietorship. On March 3, 1969, the Company was incorporated under the name of “Micropac Industries, Inc.” in the state of Delaware. The stock was publicly held by 435434 shareholders on November 30, 2022.2023.

PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGIES

The Company’s products are either custom (being application-specific circuits designed and manufactured to meet the particular requirements of a single customer) or standard proprietary components. Custom-designed components and assemblies accounted for approximately 29%25% of the Company’s sales for the fiscal year ended November 30, 20222023, and were 30%29% for fiscal 2021.2022. Standard components and assemblies accounted for approximately 71%75% of the Company’s sales for the fiscal year ended November 30, 20222023, and were 70%71% for fiscal 2021.2022.

The Company provides microelectronics, sensors and displays, and optoelectronics products, to include components and assemblies that offer a wide range of products sold to the industrial, medical, military, aerospace and space markets.

The microelectronic technologies, including custom microcircuits, solid state relays, power operational amplifiers, and regulators accounted for 29% of the Company’s business in 20222023 compared to 29% in 2021.2022. Sensors and displays accounted for 43%44% of the Company’s business and the optocouplers product accounted for 28%27% of the Company’s business in 2022,2023, compared to 45%43% and 26%28% in 2021,2022, respectively.

The Company’s basic products and technologies include:

Micropac’s products are primarily sold to original equipment manufacturers (OEM’s) who serve the following major markets:

The Company has two patents. On July 11, 2017, the Company received its patent for the “Power Controller”, which expires on July 10, 2031. On January 6, 2018, the Company received its patent for the “Voltage bus protection and isolation devices”, which expires on January 5, 2032.

Sales of our products internationally are subject to government regulations, including export control regulations of the U.S. Department of State and Department of Commerce. Violation of these regulations by the Company could result in monetary penalties and denial of export privileges. The Company is not aware of any violations of export control regulations or similar applicable government regulations.

Five of the Company’s principal product families require government approval. Further, a significant portion of our business is military and is dependent on maintaining our facility certifications to MIL-PRF-38534 and MIL-PRF-19500. In addition, several customers require the Company maintain AS 9100 certifications. We expect to maintain these certifications and qualifications; however, the loss of any of these certifications would have a significant negative impact on our business.

Government regulations impose certain controls on chemicals used in electronics and semiconductor manufacturing. Micropac has obtained appropriate environmental permits, and routinely monitors and reports the wastewater stream results to the local governing agency. Micropac is classified as a small generator of hazardous waste, and the annual cost of complying with the regulations is minimal.

HUMAN CAPITAL

Micropac Industries, Inc., is committed to attracting and retaining the brightest and best talent. Therefore, investing, developing, and maintaining human capital is critical to our success.

We are committed to advancing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) across the entire Company and the future success of the Company isrelies on our ability to attract and retain a diverse workforce. DE&I are and have long been, critical to our culture and our Company’s success and our performance depends on attracting, developing, motivating, and retaining a highly skilled workforce, including engineering, manufacturing, business development and strategy and management.

At November 30, 2022,2023, the Company had 147143 full-time employees (compared to 153147 at November 30, 2021)2022), of which 14 were executive and managerial employees, 37 were engineers and quality-control personnel, 17 were clerical and administrative employees, and 7975 were production personnel.  None of the Company’s employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements.

Our values are also integral to our commitment to long-term sustainability, with environmental, social and governance (ESG) across our Company. With the construction of our new manufacturing center, discussed below, the Company has included in the design and construction significant improvements in support of our commitment to ESG.

COMPETITION

The Company competes with two or more companies with respect to each of its major products. Some of these competitors are larger and have greater capital resources than the Company. Management believes the Company’s competitive position is favorable with regard to our product reliability and integrity, past performance, customer service and responsiveness, timely delivery and pricing; however, no assurance can be given that the Company can compete successfully in the future.

There are approximately 35 independent manufacturing companies who are certified to supply microcircuits to MIL-PRF-38534 or supply semiconductors to MIL-PRF-19500, in addition to OEM’s, who manufacture hybrid microcircuits for their internal needs. Micropac may compete with all of these for hybrid microcircuit, power management and optoelectronics business. Some of the Company’s primary competitors are TTM Technologies, Cobham Advanced Electronic Solutions, TT Electronics, and Infineon Technologies.

SUPPLY CHAIN

The parts and raw materials for the Company’s products are generally available from more than one source. Except for certain optoelectronic products, the Company does not manufacture the basic parts or materials used in production of its products. From time to time, the Company has experienced difficulty in obtaining certain materials when needed. The Company’s inability to secure materials for any reason could have adverse effects on the Company’s ability to deliver products on a timely basis and could result in loss of customers or sales. However, the Company has not been materially affected by such shortages. The Company uses capacitors, active semiconductor devices (primarily in chip form), hermetic packages, ceramic substrates, resistor inks, conductor pastes, precious metals and other materials in its manufacturing operations. The Company’s delivery commitments to customers allow for adequate lead times for production of the products including lead time for order and receipt from the supply chain.

Some of the Company’s primary suppliers are NTK Technologies, W. L Gore, Hughes Circuits, Semi-Dice and TTI.

This annual report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results could differ materially. Investors are warned that forward-looking statements involve risks and unknown factors including, but not limited to: our expectations regarding the potential impacts on our operations of the COVID-19 pandemic; our expectations regarding the potential impacts on our supply chain and on our customers of the COVID-19 pandemic; overall changes in governmental spending for military and space programs; customer cancellation or rescheduling of orders, problems affecting delivery of vendor-supplied raw materials and components, unanticipated manufacturing problems and availability of direct labor resources.

The Company disclaims any responsibility to update the forward-looking statements contained herein, except as may be required by law.

Concentration Related Risk Factors

The Company is heavily dependent on a few major customers

The Company’s major customers include contractors to the United States government. Sales to these customers for DOD and NASA contracts accounted for approximately 77%74% of the Company’s revenues in 20222023 compared to 67%77% in 2021.2022. The Company’s major customers are Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, United Technologies, BAE, and Boeing. Two customers accounted for 18%14% and 10% of the Company’s sales during 20222023 and one customertwo customers accounted for 20%18% and 10% during 2021.2022. The contracts of our customers with the United States government may be subject to renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts or subcontracts at the election of the government, which would in turn might materially affect the Company’s sales. The loss of any one of these customers or a significant reduction in their purchases would be likely to adversely affect our business.

In addition, the Company has several custom commercial and medical products with a current backlog of $5,321,000. The loss of these custom products or a significant reduction in their purchases would be likely to adversely affect our business.

Financing Related Risk Factors

We experience pricing pressures from customers for reduction in selling prices

The Company continues to experience pricing pressures from some of its OEM customers. In some cases, the Company’s customers request the review of pricing for possible reduction in selling price on future orders. This requires the Company to improve its productivity and to request similar price reductions from its suppliersupply chain. If one or both of the approaches by the Company does not succeed, the Company could be required to reduce the selling price on future orders, reducing the product gross margins and affecting the Company’s net earnings in order to receive future orders from the customer. However, the Company has no agreement that requires a reduction in the selling price on any current customer order. All contracts are firm fixed pricing.

The Company has potential warranty obligations

The Company provides a one-year warranty from the date of shipment to the original purchaser. The Company is obligated under this warranty to either replace or repair defective goods or refund the purchase price paid by the buyer. An unexpected number of warranty claims could negatively impact the profitability of the Company.

Inflation and rising costs

The cost to manufacture the Company’s products is influenced by the cost of raw materials and labor. The Company has recently experienced higher costs with increasing cost of labor and cost of raw materials with inflation. The Company may, from time to time, offset these cost increases by increasing the prices of its products on new contracts.

Operations Related Risk Factors

Fabrication efforts may not be successful

The Company produces silicon phototransistors and light-emitting diode die for use in certain military, standard and custom products. Fabrication efforts sometimes may not result in successful results, limiting the availability of these components. Competitors offer commercial level alternatives, and our customers may purchase our competitors’ products if the Company is not able to manufacture the products using these technologies to meet the customer demands.

Component shortages from suppliers could affect ability to manufacture products or delay shipments to customers

The Company relies on suppliers to deliver quality raw materials in a timely and cost-effective manner. Most of the materials and components are generally available from multiple sources; however, from time-to-time vendors do not deliver the product as needed due to manufacturing problems or a decision to discontinue that product. Such interruption of supply or price increases could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations; however, the Company is not currently impacted by material shortages.

We must maintain the ability to enhance our products and develop new products for the military, space or aerospace markets

The Company’s base products and technologies generally have long life cycles. The Company’s products are primarily used in military, space or aerospace applications, which also have long life cycles. Our future success may, however, depend in part on our ability to enhance the functionality of our existing products in a timely and cost-effective manner, our ability to continue close working relationships with major customers for the design of their new products, and our ability to develop new products and technologies for existing and emerging markets. We must also continue to make significant investments in research and development efforts in order to meet customer specifications for specially fabricated products. We may not be able to retain or obtain engineers, or other technical support staff, to conduct our research and development efforts as needed. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to design, develop and market new products and technologies on a timely and cost-effective basis. Failure to respond to our customers’ requirements and to our competitors’ progress in technological changes could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

Regulatory Related Risk Factors

We are significantly affected by government policy

The Company could be adversely affected by changes in laws and regulations made by U.S. and non-U.S. governments and agencies dealing with foreign shipments. Changes in trade agreements or taxes on imports or exports could adversely affect our operations or financial condition.

Sales of our products internationally are subject to government regulations, including export control regulations of the U.S. Department of State and Department of Commerce. Changes in these regulations could adversely affect our business. Violation of these regulations by the Company could result in monetary penalties and denial of export privileges.

The Company is subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), which generally prohibits U.S. companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business.  Any violation of the FCPA or similar laws and regulations could result in significant expenses, divert management attention, have a material adverse effect on our business, our financial condition and our results of operations and otherwise have a negative impact on the Company and its reputation.

Reductions or changes in U.S. government spending

The loss or significant reduction of a U.S. government or NASA program in which our major customers participate could adversely affect our business. U.S. government contracts generally are conditioned on the continuing availability of Congressional appropriations. Congress usually appropriates funds for on-going programs on a fiscal year basis even though contract performance may extend over many years. At the beginning of a major program, the contract is often only partially funded, and additional monies are committed only as Congress makes appropriations in future fiscal years. In addition, most U.S. government contracts are subject to modification if funding is changed. Key programs in which our customers participate must compete with other programs for consideration during the federal budgeting and appropriation process, and support and funding for any U.S. government program may be influenced by general economic conditions, political considerations, and other factors. A decline in support and funding for programs in which our customers participate could result in contract terminations, delays in contract awards, failure to extend contracts, cancellation of planned procurements and fewer new business opportunities for our customers. Our business may be adversely affected as a result of changes or reductions in U.S. government or NASA spending.

Market Related Risk Factors

Majority shareholder ability to control the election of the Board of Directors

The Company’s majority shareholder, Mr. Heinz-Werner Hempel, establishedMicropac Industries, Inc. Vermoegensverwaltungsgesellschaft buergerlichen Rechts, a partnership organized under the laws of Germany whichin 2007 owns 1,952,577 shares or 75.7% of the Company’s outstanding voting shares. Mr. Robert Hempel, through the partnership, has the ability to control the election of the Company’s Board of Directors and elect individuals who may be more attuned to such majority shareholder’s vision for the Company and not necessarily to those of minority shareholders as to the policies and directions of the Company. However, the ability to control the election of the Board of Directors does not modify the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors to represent the interests of all shareholders.

There are limited shares for purchase and sale

A small number of shares are available for public purchase and sale. The Company’s reported share price may be subject to extreme fluctuations, or one or a few trades may determine the reported market price, due in part to the small number of shares traded at any time.

General Risk Factors

Impact of COVID-19 on our Business

In March 2020 the World Health Organization declared the spread of the COVID-19 virus a pandemic.

The Company continues to monitor our supply chain and orders from customers for COVID-19 pandemic related changes. We are continuing to serve our customers while taking precautions to provide a safe work environment for our employees and customers. We have been staggering some shifts and otherwise adjusting work schedules to maximize our capacity while adhering to recommended precautions. We have established and implemented a work from home provision where possible.

To date, we have not experienced significant raw material shortages; however, supply-chain disruptions could potentially delay or prevent us from fulfilling customer orders.

We are subject to cybersecurity risks

Cybersecurity risks and attacks continue to grow. Cybersecurity attacks are evolving and not always predictable. Attacks include malicious software, threats to information technology infrastructure, denial-of-service attacks on websites, attempts to gain unauthorized access to data, ransomware attacks, and other breaches. Data breaches can originate with authorized or unauthorized persons. Authorized persons could inadvertently or intentionally release confidential or proprietary information, and recipients could misuse data. Such events could lead to interruption of our operations or business, unauthorized release or use of information, compromise of data, damage to our reputation, damage to our customers or vendors, and increased costs to prevent, respond to or mitigate any events.

Insurance coverage and exposure to substantial claims or liabilities

The Company operates manufacturing facilities in Garland, Texas, and subcontracts portions of the Company’s manufacturing to a contract manufacturer in Juarez, Mexico. These facilities use industrial machines and chemicals that could provide risks of personal injury and/or property damage. There is no assurance that accidents will not occur. If accidents do occur, the Company could be exposed to substantial liability. The Company maintains worker’s compensation insurance and general liability insurance for protection of its employees and for protection of the Company’s assets in Garland, Texas and for equipment and inventory located at the contract manufacturer in Juarez, Mexico. In addition to the basic policies mentioned, the Company maintains an umbrella insurance policy. The Company reviews all insurance coverage on an annual basis, and makes any necessary adjustments based on risk assessment and changes in its business. In the opinion of the Company’s management, and its insurance advisors, the Company is adequately insured; however, the Company’s financial position could be materially affected by claims not covered or exceeding coverage currently carried by the Company.

Environmental regulations

The Company is subject to increasingly stringent environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to air emissions, wastewater discharges, chemical and hazardous waste management and disposal. Some of these environmental laws hold owners or operators of land or businesses liable for their own and for previous owners’ or operators’ releases of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes. Other environmental laws and regulations require that we obtain and comply with environmental permits. To date, costs of complying with environmental requirements have not been material. Future events, including those relating to climate change or greenhouse gas emissions, could require the Company to incur expenses related to installation of pollution control equipment, or investigation and cleanup of contaminated sites. If the Company fails to comply with environmental laws and regulations, the Company could be subject to significant liabilities or be required to curtail or cease its manufacturing activities. Changes in environmental laws or regulations could affect the cost of the Company’s products and make it hard for the Company to be competitive with larger companies.

We may default on itsour line of credit or construction loan

The Company currently has an existing line of credit and a construction loan with a Texas banking institution. In connection therewith, the Company is obligated to maintain certain minimum financial requirements in order to receive advances therefrom. The Company is currently in compliance with such financial requirements, but there is no guarantee that the Company will remain in compliance. If the Company does not maintain compliance with each of the requirements, its ability to receive advances from the line of credit or construction loan will be impaired.

We may incur product liability claims

The use of the Company’s products in commercial or government applications may subject the Company to product liability claims. Although the Company has not experienced any significant product liability claims, the risk of such claims continues. Product liability claims brought against the Company could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results and financial condition.

Our products may have errors or defects that we find only after deployment

Our products are complex, designed to be incorporated in sophisticated applications, and may contain undetected defects, errors, or failures. Although our products are generally tested during manufacturing, prior to shipping, they may contain defects that are discovered only after the products are incorporated in customer applications. The occurrence of any defects, errors, or failures could result in installation delays, product returns, termination of contracts with our customers, diversion of our resources, increased service and warranty costs, and other losses to our customers, their end users, or to us. Any of these occurrences could also result in the loss of customers, and could damage our reputation, which could reduce our sales. In addition to the risk of unanticipated warranty or recall expenses, our customer contracts may contain provisions that could cause us to incur penalties, be liable for damages, or incur other expenses, if we experience difficulties with respect to the functionality, deployment, operation, and availability of our products and services.

None.

Impact of COVID-19 on our Business

In March 2020 the World Health Organization declared the spread of the COVID-19 virus a pandemic.

The Company continues to monitor our supply chain and orders from customers for COVID-19 pandemic related changes. We are continuing to serve our customers while taking precautions to provide a safe work environment for our employees and customers. We have been staggering some shifts and otherwise adjusting work schedules to maximize our capacity while adhering to recommended precautions. We have established and implemented a work from home provision where possible.

To date, we have not experienced significant raw material shortages; however, supply-chain disruptions could potentially delay or prevent us from fulfilling customer orders.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company obtained a commercial real estate construction loan for the construction of a new 76,000 square foot manufacturing center on the 9.2 acres of land in Garland, Texas that the Company has purchased. On March 26, 2021, the Company (acting as borrower) entered into a Construction Loan Agreement (the “loan agreement”) with Frost Bank (“Frost”) (acting as lender). The Construction Loan Agreement provides for a construction loan, in amounts not to exceed a total principal balance of $16,160,000 with an interest rate of (3.40%) per annum.

On March 26, 2021,May 16, 2023, the Company renewed the Revolving Loan Agreement with Frost through the “Sixth“Seventh Amendment to Loan Agreement.” (See Exhibit 10.13)10.15). The Revolving Loan Agreement provides for revolving credit loans, in amounts not to exceed a total principal balance of $6,000,000 with a rate equal to prime rate with a floor of 3.25%. The Revolving Loan Agreement was originally entered into on January 23, 2013, between the “Company” as borrower and Frost as lender.  

Construction Loans.  Subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement, Frost will lend to the Company an aggregate amount not to exceed $16,160,000.

Principal and interest shall be due and payable monthly in an amounts determined by Lender required to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of this Note over a period of twenty-five (25) years, payable on the twenty-sixth (26th) day of each and every calendar month, beginning April 26, 2023, and continuing regularly thereafter until March 26, 2031, when the entire amount hereof, principal and accrued interest then remaining unpaid, shall be then due and payable; interest being calculated on the unpaid principal each day principal is outstanding and all payments made credited to any collection costs and late charges, to the discharge of the interest accrued and to the reduction of the principal, in such order as Lender shall determine.

The interest rate of (3.40%) per annum includes an Interest-Only Period. Interest only shall be due and payable monthly as it accrues on the twenty-sixth (26th) day of each and every calendar month, beginning April 26, 2021, and continuing regularly and monthly thereafter until March 26, 2023; interest being calculated on the unpaid principal each day principal is outstanding and all payments made credited to any collection costs and late charges, to the discharge of the interest accrued and to the reduction of the principal, in such order as Lender shall determine.

The loan shall be secured by a “Deed of Trust, Security Agreement – Financing Statement” covering the 9.2 acre9.2-acre tract in Garland, Texas and the improvements made on it.

Revolving Credit Loans.  Subject to the terms of the Revolving Loan Agreement, Frost will lend to the Company, on a revolving basis, amounts not to exceed a total principal balance of $6,000,000, minus amounts available and amounts previously disbursed under outstanding revolving letters of credit. Subject to certain terms and conditions, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow under the Loan Agreement. The loan has a maturity date of April 23, 2023.2025. The loan shall be secured by a Security Agreement dated as of January 23, 2013, and is given by Borrower in favor of Lender with collateral of all personal property.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions and factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Note 2 to the Financial Statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 20222023, describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The core principle of revenue recognition under accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America (GAAP) is that the Company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company’s revenue on the majority of its customer contracts areis recognized at a point in time, generally upon shipment of products. The application of GAAP related to the measurement and recognition of revenue requires us to make judgments and estimates. Specifically, the determination of whether revenues related to our revenue contracts should be recognized over time or at a point in time, as these determinations impact the timing and amount of our reported revenues and net income. Other significant judgments include the estimation of the point in the manufacturing process at which we are entitled to receive payment, as well as the progress of the job order to completion to determine the amount of consideration earned for contractual revenue recognized over time.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on our assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and the aging of the accounts receivable. If there is a deterioration of a major customer’s credit worthiness or actual defaults are higher than our historical experience, our estimates of the recoverability of amounts due us could be adversely affected.

Inventory purchases and commitments are based upon future demand. If there is a sudden and significant decrease in demand for our products or there is a higher risk of inventory obsolescence because of changing customer requirements, we may be required to increase our inventory allowances and our gross margin could be adversely affected.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. If we were to determine we would not be able to realize all or part of the deferred tax asset in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be necessary which would reduce our net income for that period.

Depreciable and useful lives estimated for property and equipment are based on initial expectations of the period of time these assets will provide benefit. Changes in circumstances related to a change in our business or other factors could result in these assets becoming impaired, which could adversely affect the value of these assets.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. The ASU requires the use of an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost, in which companies will be required to estimate the lifetime expected credit loss and record an allowance to offset the amortized cost basis, resulting in a net presentation of the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, for Smaller Reporting Companies, including interim periods within those fiscal years and requires a modified-retrospective approach to adoption. The Company believes that adopting ASU 2016-13 will have no material impact on the financial statements and related disclosures.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

Micropac Industries, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Micropac Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) as of November 30, 20222023 and 2021,2022, and the related statements of income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of November 30, 20222023 and 2021,2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and
(2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the account or disclosures to which it relates.

Margin Estimates for Long-Term Contracts and Related Revenue Recognition

Critical Audit Matter Description

As disclosed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company produces certain products with no alternative use and for which the Company has an enforceable right to payment during the production cycle. For these contracts, the Company recognizes revenue over time as control over these products transfers to the customer. Thus, the Company records contract assets for work in process contracts at the end of each reporting period. The Company uses costs incurred to date as the method for determining progress, and revenue is recognized based on costs incurred to date plus an estimate of margin at completion. The process of estimating final margin involves estimating the costs to complete production of goods and comparing those costs to the total transaction price. These contracts are inherently uncertain in that revenue is fixed while the estimates of costs required to complete these contracts are subject to variability. Due to the technical performance requirements in many of these contracts, changes to cost estimates could occur, resulting in higher or lower margins when the contracts are completed.

We identified revenue associated with work in process contracts recognized over time as a critical audit matter. The process of estimating final margin is subjective in nature that and resulted in a higher degree of audit effort and judgment. Changes in estimates of final margin could have a significant impact on the timing of revenue recognition.

How We Addressed the Matter

We obtained an understanding of the design of internal controls that address the risks of material misstatement relating to recording revenue from contracts with customers where revenue is recognized over time. We evaluated the reasonableness of judgements made and assumptions used by management relating to key estimates which include estimated total costs to complete and estimated final margins. We reviewed executed contracts to understand the contract terms, reperformed management’s process of assigning the appropriate timing of revenue recognition and tested the mathematical accuracy of revenue recognized over time based on costs incurred to date relative to total estimated margin. We tested the accuracy and completeness of the data used in developing key estimates, including materials, labor, and overhead costs. We performed a review of audit evidence from transactions completed after the measurement date related to the final gross margins for comparison to the Company’s initial gross margin estimates.

We evaluated management’s ability to estimate total inputs accurately by comparing actual inputs to management’s historical estimates for contracts that have been fulfilled.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOVEMBER 30, 20222023 AND 20212022

Micropac Industries, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, designs, manufactures and distributes various types of microelectronic circuits including solid state relays and power controllers, optoelectronic components, and sensor and display components and assemblies. The Company’s products are used as components and assemblies in a broad range of military, space, medical and commercial systems, including aircraft instrumentation and navigation systems, satellite systems, power supplies, electronic controls, computers, medical devices, and high-temperature (200^o C) products.

Revenue Recognition

The core principle of revenue recognition under accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America (GAAP) is that the Company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

The Company's revenue on the majority of its customer contracts areis recognized at a point in time, generally upon shipment of products.

To achieve that core principle, the Company applies the following steps:

The Company designs, manufactures and distributes various types of microelectronic circuits, optoelectronics, and sensors and displays. The Company’s products are used as components and assemblies in a broad range of military, space, medical and industrial systems, including aircraft instrumentation and navigation systems, satellite systems, power supplies, electronic controls, computers, medical devices, and high-temperature (200^o C) products.

The Company’s revenues are from purchase orders and/or contracts with customers associated with manufacture of products. We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.

The majority of the Company’s purchase orders or contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation, the shipment of products.

The transaction price reflects the Company’s expectations about the consideration it will be entitled to receive from the customer at a fixed price per unit shipped based on the terms of the contract or purchase order with the customer. To the extent our actual costs vary from the fixed price that was negotiated, we will generate more or less profit or could incur a loss.

The Company’s transaction price is the fixed price per unit per each delivery upon shipment.

This performance obligation is satisfied when control of the product is transferred to the customer, which occurs upon shipment or delivery. The Company receives purchase orders for products to be delivered over multiple dates that may extend across reporting periods. The Company accounting policy treats shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost. The Company invoices for each delivery upon shipment and recognizes revenues at the fixed price for each distinct product delivered when transfer of control has occurred, which is generally upon shipment.

For certain contracts under which the Company produces products with no alternative use and for which the Company has an enforceable right to payment during the production cycle, the Company recognizes revenue for the cost incurred of work in process plus a margin at the end of each period and records a contract asset (unbilled receivable). The majority of these products are shipped weekly and monthly to the customers and the contracts require us to manage and limit the level of work in process to meet the scheduled delivery dates.

In addition, the Company may have a contract or purchase order to provide a non-recurring engineering service to a customer. These contracts are reviewed, and performance obligations are determined and we recognize revenue at the point in time in which each performance obligation is fully satisfied.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following table summarizes the Company’s net sales by product line.

The following table summarizes the Company’s net sales by major market.

Receivables, net, Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and customer advances and depositsdeferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. 

Receivables, net, contract assets and contract liabilities were as follows:

Revenue recognized in 20222023 that was included in the deferred revenue liability balance at the beginning of the year was $103,0001,169,000.

Contract costs

The Company does not have material incremental costs to obtain a contract in the form of sales commissions or bonuses. The Company incurs other immaterial costs to obtain and fulfill a contract; however, the Company has elected the practical expedient under ASC 340-40-24-4 to recognize all incremental costs to obtain a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period is one year or less.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value and include material, labor and manufacturing overhead. All inventories are valued using the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method of inventory valuation. The Company determines the need to write inventory down to the lower of cost or net realizable value via an analysis based on the usage of inventory over a three year period and projected usage based on current backlog.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method the Company records deferred income taxes for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. The resulting deferred tax liabilities and assets are adjusted to reflect changes in tax law or rates in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company records a liability for an unrecognized tax benefit for a tax position that is not “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained.  The Company did notnot record any liability for uncertain tax positions as of November 30, 20222023, or November 30, 2021.2022.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost, and depreciation is provided using the straight-line method at rates based upon the following estimated useful lives (in years) of the assets:

The Company assesses long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) ASC 360-10-35, Property, Plant and Equipment – Subsequent Measurement. When events or circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired, an assessment is performed. The estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset are compared to the asset’s net book value to determine if a write down to market value less cost to sell is required.

Construction in progress relates to multiple capital projects ongoing during the years ended November 30, 20222023, and 2021,2022, including the construction of the new manufacturing facility. Construction in progress also includes interest and fees on debt that are directly related to the financing of the Company’s capital projects.

Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Improvements which extend the useful lives of property, plant, and equipment are capitalized.

Research and Development Costs

Costs for the design and development of new products are expensed as incurred.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares. During 2022

The following is a reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of the basic and 2021,diluted earnings per share for the Company had no potential dilutive common stock.years ended November 30, 2023 and 2022:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. The ASU requires the use of an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost, in which companies will be required to estimate the lifetime expected credit loss and record an allowance to offset the amortized cost basis, resulting in a net presentation of the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset.
