1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Butler International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005 due to seasonal and other factors. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
2. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SEGMENT INFORMATION:
The Company provides outsourcing, project management and technical staff augmentation services in technical, information technology, and telecommunications disciplines including: engineering design support primarily used for aerospace, defense and heavy equipment manufacturing, software quality assurance testing, software applications development and implementation, enterprise network design and implementation, telecommunications network systems implementation, and fleet maintenance and repair services to major ground fleet-holders nationwide. These services are provided through three business segments: Technical Services ("BTG"), Telecommunication Services ("BTI") and Information Technology Services ("BTS").
The Company discloses segment information in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 131, "Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," which requires companies to report selected segment information on a quarterly basis and to report certain entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers and material countries in which the entity holds assets and reports revenues.
Net sales and operating profits/(losses) by segment were:
| For the Three-Month |
| Period Ended March 31, |
| 2005 | | 2004 |
Sales: | | | |
Technical Services | $ 41,708 | | $ 36,642 |
Telecommunication Services | 17,238 | | 15,665 |
Information Technology Services | 4,825 | | 5,316 |
Unallocated amount | 294 | | 289 |
Consolidated Total | $ 64,065 | | $ 57,912 |
| | | |
Operating Profits/(Loss): | | | |
Technical Services | $ 3,742 | | $ 3,646 |

Unallocated amounts | (3,468) | | (3,255) |
Consolidated Total | $ 1,736 | | $ 1,239 |
| | | |
The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 3. Intercompany transactions and balances are not significant.
Management reviews the Company's assets on a consolidated basis, as it is not meaningful to allocate assets to the various segments. The Company evaluates segment performance based on revenues and operating profits. The Company does not allocate income taxes or charges determined to be non-recurring in nature, such as restructuring and impairment charges.
The Company primarily operates in the United States. Operations include the results of the India subsidiary, which are less than 1% of sales.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Stock-based Compensation
The Company has a number of stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 9 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. The Company accounts for employee stock options and share awards under the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," as interpreted. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options and share awards is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the exercise price an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company recognizes compensation cost arising from the issuance of share awards over the vesting period of the stock grant. The Company has recognized no compensation expense related to employee stock options for any period shown as the Company generally grants stock options with the exercise price equal to the market value of the common stock on the date of grant.
During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, a total of 55,000 and 32,500 stock options, respectively, were granted to officers of the Company through the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan. Had compensation cost for the stock options issued and share awards granted been determined based on the fair value at the grant date and recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period, consistent with provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income and earnings per share would have been changed to the pro forma amounts indicated below:
| For the Three-Month |
| Period Ended March 31, |
| 2005 | | 2004 |
Net income - as reported | $ 433 | | $ 152 |
Add: Stock-based employee compensation | | | |
expense included in reported net | | | |
net income, net of related tax effects | 9 | | - |
Deduct: Total stock-based employee | | | |
compensation expense determined under | | | |
fair value based method for all awards, | | | |
net of related tax effects | (66) | | (62) |
Net income - pro forma | $ 376 | | $ 90 |
| | | |
Earnings per share: | | | |
Basic - as reported | $ 0.03 | | $ 0.01 |
Basic - pro forma | 0.03 | | - |
Assuming dilution - as reported | 0.03 | | 0.01 |
Assuming dilution - pro forma | 0.03 | | - |
| | | |
The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
| 2005 | | 2004 |
Risk-free interest rate | 4.17% | | 4.08% |
Expected life | 5.9 years | | 6.1 years |
Expected volatility | 43.51% | | 93.30% |
| | | |

Earnings per common share from continuing operations: | | |
Basic | $ 0.03 | | $ 0.01 |
Assuming dilution | $ 0.03 | | $ 0.01 |
| | | |
| | | |
The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per common share amounts. Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income, adjusted for preferred stock dividends, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation in periods in which they have an anti-dilutive effect. The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate the impact of outstanding stock options and warrants. Stock options and warrants for which the exercise price exceeds the average market price over the period have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per common share and, accordingly, are excluded from the calculation. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, there were options and warrants totaling 561,100 and 1,459,458, respectively, where the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares and, therefore, were excluded from the computation of diluted income per share.
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, including, but not limited to, receivable valuations, impairment of goodwill, pension benefit obligations, income taxes, restructuring costs and litigation accruals. Management's estimates are based on historical experience, facts and circumstances available at the time, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company reviews these matters and reflects changes in estimates as appropriate. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS TO BE IMPLEMENTED:
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123 (Revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment," that will require the Company to expense costs related to share-based payments to employees. With limited exceptions, SFAS No. 123R requires that the fair value of share-based payments to employees be expensed over the period service is received. SFAS No. 123R is scheduled to be effective beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2005. SFAS No. 123R allows for either prospective recognition of compensation expense or retroactive recognition, which may date back to the original issuance of SFAS No. 123 or only to interim periods in the year of adoption. The Company is evaluating these transition methods. The impact of adoption of SFAS No. 123R cannot be predicted at this time because it is dependent on the fair value and number of share-based payments granted in the future. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this statement.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB No. 29" effective for Nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2006. SFAS No. 153 requires that exchanges of productive assets be accounted for at fair value unless fair value cannot be reasonably determined or the transaction lacks commercial substance. SFAS No. 153 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position.
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 "Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4." SFAS No. 151 requires certain abnormal expenditures to be recognized as expenses in the current period. It also requires that the amount of fixed production overhead allocated to inventory be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The standard is effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2006. The implementation of SFAS No. 151 will have no impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position.
5. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE:
In February 2005, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the sale of its Montvale, New Jersey facility and the potential establishment of worldwide headquarters in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, where it currently leases office space. The Montvale, New Jersey facility has served as the Company's worldwide headquarters. The Company has retained a real estate broker to represent it and classified the Montvale, New Jersey building and associated land in its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as assets held for sale. The carrying value of the property is $8,889,000. The net proceeds from the sale of the facility will be used to retire debt.
6. INCOME TAXES:
The effective income tax rate is the income tax expense as a percentage of income before income taxes. In 2005, the effective income tax rate increased due to the Company's evaluation of its tax planning strategies.
| | For the Three-Month |
| | Period Ended March 31, |
| | 2005 | | 2004 |
Income tax expense | | $ 310 | | $ 92 |
Effective income tax rate | | 41.7% | | 37.7% |
| | | | |
7. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS:
The Company has a funded noncontributory defined benefit pension plan (the "Plan"). Benefits under the Plan are determined based on earnings and period of service. The Company funds the Plan in accordance with the minimum funding requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. A participant's Employee Stock Option Plan ("ESOP") credits reduced benefits payable under the Plan. Effective June 1997, retroactive to December 31, 1996, the Company froze future benefit accruals under the Plan and ESOP. The Company uses a December 31 measurement date.

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
Since 1994, the Company has provided payroll and administrative services to Chief Executive Magazine, Inc. ("Chief Executive"). During 2001, E. Kopko, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, became the managing general partner of Chief Executive Group, L.P. ("CE Group"), the limited partnership that owns the magazine. Also in 2001, the Company converted approximately $2.0 million of accounts receivable from Chief Executive into a note receivable. The note bears interest at three hundred basis points above the prime rate (8.0% at March 31, 2005). In March 2004, the Company's Board of Directors approved taking action to assume full ownership of Chief Executive's assets. Consequently, a decision regarding disposition of the asset will be made at a later date. In 2004, as a result of the pending foreclosure, the Company has included all of the receivables from Chief Executive and related allowances in other assets. At March 31, 2005, trade receivables and the note receivable from Chief Executive totaled approximately $9.0 million and $1.3 million, respectively, and are included in other assets net of allowance for doubtful accounts and notes of $5.9 million. The following table presents the billings, payments, interest charges and related charges to provision for doubtful accounts and notes for Chief Executive in 2005:

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:
Chief Executive
In 2004, the Company notified CE Group of its intent to initiate legal proceedings to foreclose on all of Chief Executive's property and assets due to Chief Executive's inability to repay its obligations to the Company. (See Note 17 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 ("2004 Form 10-K")). Negotiations for the judicial transfer to the Company of all the assets and certain liabilities of Chief Executive are substantially completed. The partners of CE Group have been granted a brief period of time to indicate if they are willing to provide significant additional capital contributions to Chief Executive sufficient to, among other things, repay Chief Executive's indebtedness to the Company. If the partners of CE Group do not submit a proposal for additional capital contributions, the Company expects the transfer of Chief Executive's assets to occur in the third or fourth quarter of 2005.
Delinquent Filing of Form 10-K, Form 11-K and Form 10-Q
The Company did not file its 2004 Form 10-K timely with the SEC. Additional time was required to review the Company's accounting treatment of Chief Executive and related receivables for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.(continued)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
First quarter 2005 net sales were $64.1 million, a 10.6% increase compared to the first quarter of 2004. This is the sixth quarter in a row of year over year quarterly sales increases. The Company strategy is to pursue growth by focusing on key customer needs. As an example of the increased focus on servicing key customers, sales to the top 10 customers accounted for 71% of sales in the first quarter of 2005 compared to 67% in the first quarter of 2004. Sales to the top 10 customers grew 17.8% from the first quarter of 2004 to the first quarter of 2005.
First quarter 2005 gross margin was $10.8 million, an 11.7% increase compared to the first quarter of 2004. The gross margin percentage for the first quarter of 2005 was 16.9% compared to 16.8% for the first quarter of 2004. The improvement in gross margin and gross margin percentage is explained by increased sales and higher margin business.
First quarter 2005 operating income was $1.7 million, a 40.1% increase compared to the first quarter of 2004. The operating profit margin percentage for the first quarter of 2005 was 2.7% compared to 2.1% for the first quarter of 2004. The operating profit improvement is explained by the improved gross margin and selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expense increasing at a slower rate than net sales. First quarter 2005 SG&A was 13.6% of sales compared to 13.8% of sales in the first quarter of 2004. SG&A increased 9.5% from the first quarter of 2004 to the first quarter of 2005. Net sales increased 10.6% during the same period of comparison.
The increase in SG&A expense was partially offset by lower depreciation expense. SG&A expenses were up by $0.8 million or 9.5% and depreciation expense decreased by $0.1 million or 25%. The increase of $0.8 million in SG&A expenses in the first quarter 2005 compared with the first quarter 2004 principally reflects the impact of higher labor costs and higher professional fees incurred to support the increased revenue. Depreciation expense decreased in the quarter by $0.1 million which principally reflects lower depreciation expense in the current year caused by a reclassification of the Montvale building to assets held for sale.
First quarter 2005 interest expense was consistent with the prior year at $1 million. Income tax expense was $0.3 million for the current year's first quarter as compared with $0.1 million for the prior year. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2005 was 41.7% compared with 37.7% during the first quarter of 2004. The 2005 rate reflects the Company's estimate of 2005 profitability and income tax position.
First quarter 2005 net income was $0.4 million, a 185% increase compared to the first quarter of 2004. The net income margin percentage for the first quarter of 2005 was 0.7% compared to 0.3% for the first quarter of 2004. First quarter 2005 earnings per share ("EPS") was $0.03 per diluted share compared with $0.01 per share for the first quarter of 2004.
Among Butler's three business segments, the two largest segments, Technical Services ("BTG") and Telecommunication Services ("BTI"), each experienced 10% or more growth in sales compared to the first quarter of 2004. BTG is Butler's largest business segment and had the largest sales increase ($5.1 million) and percentage sales increase (13.8%) in the first quarter of 2005 as compared to the first quarter in 2004. BTG's key markets include aerospace, defense, and heavy equipment manufacturing, that are experiencing substantial growth in capital investments. The BTI sales increase was $1.6 million or 10.0% when compared to the first quarter of 2004. The BTG and BTI sales increases were mostly due to higher sales to key customers. BTI primarily serves the telecommunication industry. Information Technology Services ("BTS") was the only segment that experienced a sales decline during the quarter; declining $0.5 million or 9.2% from the first quarter in 2004. BTS sales increased at some customers, however, it was more than offset due to a decline at a key customer.
Among Butler's three business segments, the two largest segments, Technical Services (BTG) and Telecommunication Services (BTI) each experienced growth in operating profit compared to the first quarter of 2004. BTG's operating profit increased $0.1 million or 2.6%. BTG's operating profit growth was less than its sales growth as a result of opening new offices and adding employees to pursue future sales growth. The BTI operating profit increase was $0.7 million or 133.0% when compared to the first quarter of 2004. BTI's operating profit growth was driven by an increase in sales at a key customer. Information Technology Services (BTS) was the only segment that experienced an operating profit decline during the quarter; declining $0.1 million or 14.7% from the first quarter in 2004. BTS's lower operating profit is explained by lower sales and expenses, incurred in expanding the Company's India operation, in order to capture future growth.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.(continued)
Outlook
Based on current business trends, the Company anticipates continued growth and profitability in 2005 compared to 2004. The Company's growth prospects are influenced by broad economic and customer trends. The pace of customer capital spending programs, government spending on defense programs, telecommunication capital spending, new product launches, and customers' desire to become more efficient have a direct impact on demand for our services. Recent industry statistics generally support management's observations of a stronger business environment including an improvement in the rate of economic activity, capital spending and job creation in the United States in 2005. Management believes that the Company is pursuing a more focused business strategy, and should be able to capitalize on the improving marketplace. Growth will be dependent upon the Company's key customers continuing to grow and drive for efficiency, an increase in Butler's share of that business, an increase in the demand for offshore services, and opportunities to develop new customer business.
Should the United States economy decline in 2005, the Company's operating performance could be adversely impacted resulting in the need for future cost reductions, change in strategy and capital infusion. Additionally, changes in government regulations could result in prohibition or restriction of certain types of employment services or the imposition of new or additional benefits, licensing or tax requirements with respect to the provision of employment services that may reduce Butler's future earnings. Butler may not be able to increase the fees charged to its clients in a timely manner and in a sufficient amount to cover increased costs as a result of any of the foregoing.
The technical and technology outsourcing services industry is very competitive and highly fragmented. There are limited barriers to entry and new competitors frequently enter the market. A significant number of its competitors are financially stronger than the Company. The Company competes in national, regional and local markets with numerous technical and technology outsourcing including a number of national and regional consulting firms. Price competition in the technical and technology outsourcing industry is significant, and pricing pressures from competitors and customers are increasing. Butler expects that the level of competition will remain high in the future, which could limit Butler's ability to maintain or increase its market share or profitability.
Accounting Changes
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and other indefinite lived intangible assets not be amortized, but be tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level. An impairment charge will be recognized only when the implied fair value of a reporting unit, including goodwill, is less than its carrying amount. Accordingly, the Company ceased amortization of all goodwill upon adoption of SFAS No. 142. The Company performed the transitional goodwill impairment test using a discounted cash flow analysis to determine the implied fair value of each of its three reporting segments and compared such values to the respective reporting segments' carrying amounts. This evaluation indicated that goodwill recorded in the BTS segment was impaired as of January 1, 2002. The primary factor resulting in the impairment charge was the continuing difficult economic environment of the information technology sector. Accordingly, the Company recognized a non-cash charge of approximately $12,338,000 (net of tax benefit of approximately $1,404,000), recorded as of January 1, 2002, as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle for the write-down of goodwill to its fair value. A goodwill impairment test is scheduled to be performed for the BTS segment in conjunction with the preparation of the financial results for the second quarter of 2005.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 2005, the Company had cash of approximately $0.2 million and working capital of approximately $28.7 million. Accounts receivable as measured in day's sales outstanding ("DSO") at March 31, 2005 was 52.4 DSO as compared with 52.1 DSO at December 31, 2004. At March 31, 2005, the Company had approximately $31.2 million of borrowings committed ($25.5 million of revolving credit facility loans plus $5.7 million of letters of credit) under its revolving credit facility with General Electric Capital Corporation ("GECC"), leaving approximately $0.3 million of availability for that week. The Company also has two term loans with GECC. The March 31, 2005 balance outstanding under GECC Term Loan A was $13 million and under Term Loan B was $18 million. The Company also has a ten-year mortgage for its corporate office facility with a balance of $6.7 million at March 31, 2005.
15
BUTLER INTERNATIONAL, INC.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.(continued)
The Company funds its operations primarily with cash generated by operations and borrowings under its existing revolving credit facility with GECC. The ability to borrow under the existing revolving credit facility varies weekly and depends on the amount of eligible collateral, which, in turn, depends on certain advance rates applied to the value of accounts receivables. Daily cash collected from customers is deposited into accounts controlled by GECC and is transferred to pay down the Company's borrowings. The Company's cash requirements are funded daily by GECC provided there are available funds. The Company has borrowed under the revolving credit facility to pay required quarterly term loan payments. Revenue and gross margin levels affect operating cash flow and any deterioration in the Company's performance on these financial measures would have a negative impact on the Company's liquidity. The Company is in compliance with required covenants, as amended and/or waived as described under Financing Activities below.
Management anticipates that the existing resources and working capital should be sufficient to satisfy the Company's foreseeable cash requirements. Of course, such expectations may prove to be incorrect. Moreover, should the Company's operations generate losses GECC could require the Company to seek alternative or additional financing sources. There can be no assurance that any additional financing or other sources of capital will be available on acceptable terms or at all. The inability to obtain additional financing, if needed, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
Operating Activities
In the first quarter 2005 cash used in operations was $1.9 million as compared with cash used by operations of $8.0 million for the first quarter of 2004. Although the Company had net income of approximately $0.4 million for the first quarter of 2005, net spending on working capital, notably accounts receivable, to fund growth in quarterly sales resulted in negative cash flow from operations. Non-cash charges included $0.4 million of depreciation and amortization expense.
Investing Activities
The Company increased capital expenditures slightly to $0.5 million in the current quarter as compared with $0.2 million in the prior year in response to an increase in equipment and infrastructure investments required to support increased sales.
Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities was approximately $1.4 million in the first quarter of 2005 as compared with approximately $8.0 million in the first quarter of 2004. The current quarter financing activity resulted from an increase in borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility to fund working capital and capital spending and repay long-term debt.
The Company's revolving credit facility is scheduled to expire in April 2006. The Company plans to renew, extend or refinance this facility prior to its scheduled expiration. The Company's credit facility, as amended, contains various restrictive covenants that must be complied with on a continuing basis including the maintenance of certain financial ratios (minimum fixed charge coverage, minimum interest coverage, capital expenditures, and minimum tangible net worth) and restrictions on the amount of cash dividends, loans and advances within the consolidated group as well as other customary covenants, representations and warranties, funding conditions and events of default. The Company has standby letters of credit in the amount of $3.7 million as collateral against its insurance program. These letters of credit are renewed annually. The Company also has a $2.0 million letter of credit associated with its mortgage note.
Additionally, as a result of not filing its 2004 Form 10-K timely, the Company was in default under its credit facility with GECC. GECC granted the Company on July 19, 2005, a temporary waiver for not delivering the 2004 Form 10-K and March 31, 2005 Form 10-Q on a timely basis. GECC required the Company to file its 2004 Form 10-K within one week of the waiver and its March 31, 2005 Form 10-Q within four weeks of the date of the waiver. Additionally, GECC imposed a cap on the maximum amount of accounts payable and/or debt Chief Executive can have payable to the Company. The cap is $10.6 million through December 31, 2005 and $10.4 million thereafter.
On July 26, 2005 the Company filed its 2004 Form 10-K and 2004 Form 11-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.(continued)
RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123 (Revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment," that requires the Company to expense costs related to share-based payments to employees. With limited exceptions, SFAS No. 123R requires that the fair value of share-based payments to employees be expensed over the period service is received. SFAS No. 123R is scheduled to be effective beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2005. SFAS No. 123R allows for either prospective recognition of compensation expense or retroactive recognition, which may date back to the original issuance of SFAS No. 123 or only to interim periods in the year of adoption. The Company is evaluating these transition methods. The impact of adoption of SFAS No. 123R cannot be predicted at this time because it is dependent on the fair value and number of share-based payments granted in the future. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this statement.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB No. 29" effective for Nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2006. SFAS No. 153 requires that exchanges of productive assets be accounted for at fair value unless fair value cannot be reasonably determined or the transaction lacks commercial substance. SFAS No. 153 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position.
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 "Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4." SFAS No. 151 requires certain abnormal expenditures to be recognized as expenses in the current period. It also requires that the amount of fixed production overhead allocated to inventory be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The standard is effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2006. The implementation of SFAS No. 151 will have no impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
The Company uses financial instruments, including fixed and variable rate debt, to finance operations, for capital spending programs and for general corporate purposes. The Company is exposed to market risk primarily from changes in interest rates, and to a lesser extent, changes in foreign currency rates. In managing exposure to these fluctuations, the Company may engage in various hedging transactions that have been authorized according to documented policies and procedures. The Company does not use derivatives for trading purposes. The Company's capital costs are directly linked to financial and business risks.
All of the Company's revolving credit and term loans with GECC have variable interest rates. The U.S. Federal Reserve Bank has announced its intention to continue raising U.S. short-term interest rates. Each 1.0% increase in short-term rates would increase the Company's interest expense by approximately $0.6 million pretax. For the first quarter of 2005, interest expense equaled 57% of operating income, so a continued rise in U.S. short-term interest rates could have a substantial negative impact on the Company's net profit.
The Company's international operations are directed from its office in Hyderabad, India. International operations accounted for less than 1% of the Company's sales for the first quarter of 2005. In the first three months of 2005, changes in foreign currency rates had an immaterial impact on sales and earnings per share.
