CPS TECHNOLOGIES CORP.
Notes to Financial Statements(Unaudited)
(1)(Unaudited)
(1) Nature of Business
CPS Technologies Corporation (the “Company” or “CPS”) provides advanced material solutions to the electronics, power generation, automotive and other industries. The Company’s primary advanced material solution is metal-matrix composites which are a combination of metal and ceramic.
CPS also assembles housings and packages for hybrid circuits. These housings and packages may include components made of metal-matrix composites or they may include components made of more traditional materials such as aluminum, copper-tungsten, etc.
Using its proprietary MMC technology, the Company also produces light-weight armor, particularly for extreme environments and heavy threat levels.
The Company sells into several end markets including the wireless communications infrastructure market, high-performance microprocessor market, motor controller market, and other microelectronic and structuraldefense markets.
(2) Interim Financial Statements(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
As permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q,10-Q, these notes are condensed and do not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements of CPS reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for such periods.
The Company’s balance sheet at December 31, 2016 30, 2023 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.
For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.30, 2023 and in CPS’s other SEC reports, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and the Company’s website at www.cpstechnologysolutions.com.
The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
(3)(3) Net Income (loss)(Loss) Per Common and Common Equivalent Share
Basic net income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares plus additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential dilutive common shares had been issued for granted stock options and stock purchase rights. Had there been a profit in Q12024, the dilutive effect would have been 74,285 shares. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted calculations when a net loss is incurred as they would be anti-dilutive.
The following table presents the calculation of both basic and diluted EPS:

Operating Leases
The Company has one real estate lease expiring in February 2026. CPS also has a few other leases for equipment which are minor in nature and are generally short-term in duration. None of these equipment leases have been capitalized as the Company elected an accounting policy for short-term leases, which allows lessees to avoid recognizing right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases with terms of 12 months or fewer.
The real estate lease expiring in 2026 (the “Norton facility lease”) is included as a right-of-use lease asset and corresponding lease liability (current and noncurrent portions) on the balance sheet. This asset and liability was recognized on March 30, 2024 based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at commencement date. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
The Norton facility lease comprises approximately 38 thousand square feet. The lease is triple net lease wherein the Company is responsible for payment of all real estate taxes, operating costs and utilities. The Company also has an option to renew the lease starting in March 2026 through February 2032. The Company is not reasonably certain these extensions will be exercised at this time, and therefore are not included in the lease asset or liability. Annual rental payments range from $152 thousand to $165 thousand through maturity.

(5) Share-Based Payments
The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company provides an estimate of forfeitures at initial grant date. Reductions in compensation expense associated with the forfeited options are estimated at the date of grant, and this estimated forfeiture rate is adjusted periodically based on actual forfeiture experience. The companyCompany uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the stock options granted.

Overview
Overview
CPS Technologies Corporation (the ‘Company’ or ‘CPS’) provides advanced material solutions to the electronics, power generation, automotive and other industries.
The Company’s products are generally used in high-power, high-reliability applications. These applications always involve energy use or energy generation and the Company’s products allow higher performance and improved energy efficiency. The Company is an important participant in the growing movement towards alternative energy and "green" lifestyles. For example, the Company’s products are used in mass transit, hybrid and electric cars, wind-turbinesProducts we provide include baseplates for electricity generation as well as routers and switches for the internet which in turn allows telecommuting.
The Company’s primary advanced material solution is metal matrix composites (MMCs), a new class of materials which are a combination of metal and ceramic. CPS has a leading, proprietary position in metal matrix composites. Metal matrix composites have several superior properties compared to conventional materials including improved thermal conductivity, thermal expansion matching, stiffness and light weight which enable higher performance and higher reliability in our customers’ products.
Like plastics several decades ago, we believe metal-matrix composites will penetrate many end markets over many years. CPS management believes our business model of providing advanced material solutions to a portfolio of high growth end markets which are, at any point in time, in various stages of the technology adoption lifecycle, provides CPS with the opportunity for sustained growth and a diversified customer base. We believe we have validated this model as we are now supplying customers at all stages of the technology adoption lifecycle.
CPS is the leader in supplying metal matrix composites to certain high growth electronics end markets which are well along in the adoption lifecycle and therefore generating significant demand. These end markets include high-performance integrated circuits and circuit boards used in internet switches and routers, as well as motor controllers used in high-speed electric trains, subway cars, wind turbines, and wind turbines. CPS supplieshybrid and electric vehicles. We provide baseplates and housings used in radar, satellite and avionics applications. We provide lids and heat spreaders lidsused with high performance integrated circuits for use in internet switches and routers. We provide baseplates to customersand housings used in these end markets. CPS is a fully qualified manufacturer for many of the world’s largest electronics OEMs.
modules built with Wide Band Gap Semiconductors like Silicon Carbide (“SiC”) and Gallium Nitride (“GaN”), collectively Metal Matrix Composites (“MMC”). CPS also assembles housings and packages for hybrid circuits. These housings and packages may include components made of metal-matrix composites;MMC components; they may include components made of more traditional materials such as aluminum, copper-tungsten, etc.cold rolled steel and Kovar. Using its proprietary MMC technology, the Company also produces light-weight vehicle armor, particularly for extreme environments and heavy threat levels.
A marketCPS’s products are custom rather than catalog items. They are made to customers’ designs and are used as components in systems built and sold by our customers. At any point in time our product mix will consist of some products with on-going production demand, and some products which are in the prototyping or evaluation stages at an earlierour customers. The Company seeks to have a portfolio of products which include products in every stage of the technology adoption lifecycle at our customers. CPS’ growth is dependent upon the marketlevel of demand for hybrid and electric automobiles. In 2012 the Company announced a multi-year supply agreement with a major tier one automotive supplierthose products already in production, as well as its success in achieving new "design wins" for the supply of AlSiC pin fin baseplates for use in motor controllers for hybrid and electric automobiles.future products.
WeAs a manufacturer of highly technical and custom products, the Company incurs fixed costs needed to support the business, but which do not vary significantly with changes in sales volume. These costs include the fixed costs of applications such as engineering, tooling design and fabrication, process engineering, and others. Accordingly, particularly given our current size, changes in sales volume generally result in even greater changes in financial performance on a percentage basis as fixed costs are also actively working with customers in end markets at the beginning stages of the adoption lifecycle.spread over a larger or smaller base. Sales volume is therefore a key financial metric used by management.
The Company believes the underlying demand for MMC, housings for hybrid circuits and our proprietary armor solution is growing as the electronics and other industries seek higher performance, higher reliability, and reduced costs. CPS believes that its hybrid hard face armor tiles will find application in many military vehiclesthe Company is well positioned to offer our solutions to current and new customers as well as armored commercial vehicles.these demands grow.
Our products are manufactured by proprietary processes we have developed including the QuicksetTM Injection Molding Process (‘Quickset Process’) and the QuickCastTM Pressure Infiltration Process (‘QuickCast Process’).
CPS was incorporated in Massachusetts in 1984 as Ceramics Process Systems Corporation and reincorporated in Delaware in April 1987 through a merger into a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary organized for purposes of the reincorporation. In July 1987, CPS completed our initial public offering of 1.5 million shares of our Common Stock. In March 2007, we changed our name from Ceramics Process Systems Corporation to CPS Technologies Corporation.

Total revenue was $4,212
Revenues totaled $5,913 in Q3 2017, a 27% increaseQ1 2024 compared with total revenue$7,100 generated in Q1 2023, a decrease of $ 3,32717%. Two factors in Q3 2016. This increase wasparticular contributed to this decrease. One of our largest customers in 2023 significantly reduced their purchases due to an increasetheir having excess inventory that they are in the saleprocess of baseplates.working down. Additionally, while we are cautiously optimistic that identified quality issues have been resolved, we continue to run tests which occupy machine time that would otherwise have been spent on production for customers.
Gross margin in Q3 2017Q1 2024 totaled $761$906 or 18% of sales. In Q3 2016, gross margin was $ 386 or 12%15% of sales. This increasecompares with gross margin in marginQ1 2023 of $2,245 or 32% of sales. This decrease was due almost entirely to the increase in revenues.lower sales volumes on fixed costs as well as the aforementioned testing being done on the quality issues.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $744totaled $1,166 in Q3 2017, 3% less than SG&A expenses of $763 in Q3 2016. This change was due to lower marketing expenses in China, where the Company altered its selling approach and, to a lesser degree, the absence of a 401K match. These reductions in spending were offset in part by an increase in sales commissions due to higher volume.
The operating income for Q3 2017 totaled $18 compared with an operating loss of $377 in Q3 2016. This improvement was primarily due to the increase in revenues.
The company generated $3 of other income in Q3, 2017 compared with $42 in Q3, 2016. In Q3, 2016 $40 was the result of a sale of used equipment in excess of book value.
The company earned net income of $13 in Q3 2017 compared with a net loss of $139 in Q3 2016. The improvement was due primarily to an increase in revenues.
Results of Operations for the First Nine Months of 2017 Compared to the First Nine Months of 2016 (all $ in 000’s)
Total revenue was $10,781 in the first nine months of 2017, a 14% decrease compared with total revenue of $12,478 in the first nine months of 2016. This decrease was due to a reduction in the sales of armor products and baseplates. There were no significant price changes during the first nine months of 2017 compared with the first nine months of 2016.
Gross margin in the first nine months of 2017 totaled $1,095 or 10% of sales. This compares with $2,078, or 17% of sales, generated during the first nine months of 2016. This decline in margin was due to lower revenues, offset in part by reduced spending in factory support costs.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $2,651 during the first nine months of 2017, an increase of 3%Q1 2024 compared with SG&A expenses of $2,564 incurred during the first nine months of 2016. During 2017 the Company incurred approximately an additional $200$1,551 in legal and other costs associated with the annual proxy process. If it had not been for this one-time additional costs, the total SG&A spending would have been down 4% versus the same nine months last year, primarilyQ1 2023. This decrease was due in part to a reduction in variable compensation as well as lower commission expense due to lower sales commissionsrevenue numbers and reduced marketing spendingtheir impact on profitability. In addition, there are a number of areas in China.which management has been able to reduce SG&A expenses compared to last year.
The Company generated interest and other incomeexperienced an operating loss of $8$260 in Q1 2024 compared with an operating profit of $694 in Q1 2023, a decrease of 137%. This decrease was a result of the first nine months of 2017. This compares with other incomedecreased gross margin, partially offset by the decrease in the first nine months of 2016 of $49, $40 of which was due to the sale of used equipment in excess of book value.SG&A expenses.
PrimarilyCPS does not rely on raw materials from Ukraine, Russia, Israel or Gaza. As a result, we do not believe that the Russian invasion of Ukraine or the conflict in Israel and Gaza will have a direct impact on our results. Nevertheless, there could be an indirect impact regarding supply chain and inflationary issues as a result of lower volume, the Company incurredthese conflicts.
Inflation has had an operating loss of $1,555impact on our costs. Thus far, we have been able to pass along these increases to our customers, but there is no guarantee that we will be able to continue this in the first nine monthsfuture. In addition, there is often a lag between when the costs increase and when we can adjust customer prices. Some of 2017,our larger customers will have pricing agreements, typically for one year, and we must wait for those agreements to end before making any pricing adjustments. Wage increases are also part of the inflation impact. We have instituted a combination of wage increases as well as richer benefits, such as the increased 401k match mentioned above, in order to retain the folks making up our workforce.
These factors combine to create a higher degree of uncertainty regarding future financial performance.
Liquidity and Capital Resources (all $ in 000’s unless noted)
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at March 30, 2024 totaled $8,668. This compares to cash and cash equivalents at December 30, 2023 of $8,814. The Company has invested in new equipment to enable us to be more cost effective as well as improving our quality department’s ability to ensure we are shipping better product, going forward.
Accounts receivable at March 30, 2024 totaled $3,876 compared with $4,472 at December 30, 2023. Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) decreased from 60 days at the end of 2023 to 59 days at the end of Q1 2024. The accounts receivable balances at December 30, 2023, and March 30, 2024 were both net of an operating lossallowance for doubtful accounts of $486$10.
Inventories totaled $4,611 at March 30, 2024 compared with inventory totaling $4,582 at December 30, 2023. The inventory turnover in the same period last year. most recent four quarters ending Q1 2024 was 4.4 times (based on a 5 quarter end average) compared with 4.3 times averaged during the four quarters of 2023.
The net lossCompany expects it will continue to be able to fund its operations for the first nine monthsremainder of 2017 totaled $924 versus a net loss of $200 in the first nine months of 2016.2024 from operations and existing cash balances.
The Company continues to sell to a limited number of customers and the loss of any one of these customers could cause the Company to require additional external financing. Failure to generate sufficient revenues, raise additional capital or reduce certain discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its business objectives.
Liquidity and Capital Resources (all $ in 000’s unless noted)
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2017 totaled $1,690 compared with cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2016 of $3,408. This decrease was due to operating losses and a decrease in working capital, offset in part by depreciation in excess of capital expenditures.
Accounts receivable at September 30, 2017 totaled $3,034 compared with $1,960 at December 31, 2016. Days Sales Outstanding (DSOs), increased from 61 days at the end of 2016 to 65 days at the end of Q3, 2017. Both of these statistics are consistent with historical patterns.
Inventories totaled $1,971 at December 31, 2016, compared with inventories of $1,675 at September 30, 2017. The inventory turnover in 2016 was 5.9 times (based on a 5 point average) and 6.4 times for the most recent four quarters ending Q3, 2017.
All consigned inventory is shipped under existing purchase orders and per customers’ requests. Of the inventory of $1,675 at September 30, 2017, $490 was located at customers’ locations pursuant to consigned inventory agreements. Of the total inventory of $1,971 at December 31, 2016, $848 was located at customers’ locations pursuant to consigned inventory agreements.
The Company expects it will continue to be able to fund its working capital requirements for the remainder of 2017 from a combination of operating cash flow,Management believes that existing cash balances and borrowings under its line of credit, if necessary.
Management believes that cash flows from operations, existing cash balances and the credit line in place with Santander Bank will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements for the foreseeable future. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to generate sufficient revenues or reduce certain discretionary spending in the event that planned operational goals are not met such that we will be able to meet our obligations as they become due.
As of September 30, 2017 the Company had $172 of construction in progress and no outstanding commitments to purchase production equipment.

Although CPS has not been directly impacted by the war in Ukraine or by the war between Israel and Gaza, potential supply chain disruptions and its impact on energy costs are areas where we could be impacted in the future.
Inflation is an area where we have seen some impact on our business. We have seen price increases in commodity raw materials, as well as increases in other costs of doing business. As we receive new orders we have been able to pass on most of these costs to our customers. In the case of longer term pricing agreements, we have been able to pass on some of these costs through surcharges and in other ways to mitigate the impact on our profit. As inflation continues, our ability to continue to absorb higher costs by raising customer prices cannot be guaranteed.
