NOTE 6. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTER
In 1995, the Massachusetts Department of Environmental
Protection (DEP) designated the Company's facility in
Worcester, MA as a Tier 1C site under the Massachusetts
Contingency Plan as a result of a prior release of oil or
hazardous materials onto the site. The Company engaged an
environmental consulting firm to perform further site
investigation and file reports with the DEP. In February,
1998 a Phase II report was submitted to the DEP and in March
1998 a Phase III report was submitted that recommended
continued monitoring of the site for the next five years.
The cost of such monitoring over the next five years is not
expected to materially exceed the $26,000 that the Company
has recorded as a liability in the financial statements.
NOTE 7. EARNING PER SHARE:
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards
No. 128 (SFAS No. 128), "Earnings per Share", effective with
the quarter ended December 31, 1997. SFAS No. 128 changes
the method of computing earnings per share and requires that
they be presented on both a basic and diluted basis. In
accordance with SFAS No. 128 earnings per share for the
period ended March 31, 1997 have been restated.
The following data show the amounts used in computing
earnings per share
(EPS) and the effects on income and the weighted average

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FISCAL QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 COMPARED TO
FISCAL QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1997
Consolidated sales for the March 31, 1998 quarter were
$2,370,000 compared to $2,873,000 for the same period in
fiscal 1997. Sales of the Valve division declined 30.8% as
a result of a lower level of incoming orders. The Company
experienced porosity problems with castings provided by
certain suppliers which had to be reworked and resulted in
temporary delays in the Company's introduction of certain
new products to the marketplace during the quarter.
However, the Company believes that it will begin making
delivery of these products during the second half of fiscal
1998 and that those products will make a significant
contribution toward revenues for fiscal 1998.
Sales for the Webstone division increased 16.1%
compared to the same quarter last year. The Company
anticipates that new distribution channels recently opened
will result in further sales growth for that division.
Consolidated gross profit margins improved slightly
from 34.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 to 34.5% in
the second quarter of fiscal 1998. Sales and administrative
expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 1998 were 22.8%,
compared to 18.7% for the corresponding quarter in fiscal
1997, relfecting an increase in expenses for research and
development programs.
As a result of the foregoing, net income declined to
$149,000 (or basic earnings of $.07 per share) for the
quarter, compared to $254,000 (or basic earnings of $.12 per
share) in the second quarter of fiscal 1997.
SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 COMPARED TO
SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 1997
Consolidated sales for the six month period ended March
31, 1998 were $4,899,000, compared to a record $5,862,000
during the first six months of fiscal 1997. Sales of the
Valve division for the first six months of fiscal 1998
declined 27.5%, from the corresponding period last year,
reflecting a lower level of incoming orders for that
division. Sales of the Webstone division increased by 11.4%
compared to the first six months of fiscal 1997 as a result
of a broader marketing effort.
Consolidated gross profit margins for the first six
months of fiscal 1998 were essentially unchanged from the
corresponding period of fiscal 1997. Selling and
administrative expenses increased to 21.7% of net sales,
compared to 17.7% for the first six months of 1997,
reflecting non-recurring expenses related to the changes
being made in production work layout at the Company's
expanded facility.
- 10 -
As a result of the foregoing, income from operations
declined from $975,000 for the first six months of fiscal
1997 to $617,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1998.
Net income declined to $346,000 (or basic earnings of $.16
per share) for the first six months of fiscal 1998, compared
to $562,000 (or basic earnings of $.28 per share) for the
corresponding period of 1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company funds its operation, for the most part,
through earnings and bank borrowings. As of March 31, 1998
the Company had working capital of $4,222,000, including
cash of $161,000. The Company also had a line of credit of
$1,750,000 with BankBoston collateralized by substantially
all of the assets. As of March 31, 1998 approximately
$732,000 had been drawn under that line of credit which
bears interest at a rate equal to the bank's prime rate plus
1/2%.
During the first six months of fiscal 1998 operating
activities produced approximately $282,000 of cash. The
major sources of cash were net income of $345,000,
depreciation and amortization of $122,000, a reduction in
accounts receivable of $128,000 and increases in accounts
payable of $176,000. The major uses of cash were increases
in inventories of $226,000 and reductions in accrued
expenses of $175,000.
The Company invested approximately $192,000 in property
and equipment during the six months ended March 31, 1998
compared to $67,000 during the same period in 1997. This
additional investment is necessitated by additional tooling
related to new products that were recently introduced and
that will be in production during the June 1998 quarter.
The Company has completed a 10,000 square foot addition
to its existing building which is being shared by both its
operating divisions for manufacturing and warehousing. The
building costs were financed using funds available under the
BankBoston line of credit. The Company believes that
sufficient availability remains for its normal working
capital needs.
The Company borrows funds for periods of up to five
years for the purchase of new machinery and meets the
required amortization and interest payments from its current
working capital. The Company believes that its future
capital requirements for equipment can be met from the cash
flow from operations, bank borrowings and other available
sources.
The Company performed an internal assessment of the
cost to modify its computer systems so that it will be able
to process information or logic involving the year 2000 and
beyond completely and accurately. The Company estimates
that the total cost to address this "Year 2000 problem" is
approximately $50,000, and to date the Company has performed
approximately one-half of the anticipated work. The Company
is not able to assess the impact the Year 2000 problem may
have on its suppliers and customers.
The Company's results of operations have not been
materially affected by seasonality.
- 11 -
FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION
Information contained in this Form 10-QSB contains
certain "forward looking statements" within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that
address such matters as new product introductions and
projected future sales. These statements can be identified
by the use of forward looking terminology such as "expect",
"anticipate", "believe", "intend", "estimate" or other or
comparable terminology. All forward looking statements
involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results could
differ materially from those set forth in the forward
looking statements. Some of the principal factors which
could affect the Company's future operations include the
loss of or decline in level of orders from major customers,
delays in introducing new products, the failure of the
market to accept new products and changes in general
economic conditions.
- 12 -
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1 - Legal Proceedings
In 1995, the Company's facility in Worcester, MA was
designated by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental
Protection ("DEP") as a Tier 1C site under the Massachusetts
Contingency Plan because of a previous release of oil or
hazardous materials onto the site. As required by the
Massachusetts Contingency Plan, the Company hired an
environmental consulting firm to perform further site
investigation and to file reports with the DEP. In
February, 1998 the consulting firm submitted a Phase II
report to the DEP and in March 1998 a Phase III report was
submitted that recommended continued monitoring for the next
five years. The cost of such monitoring for the 5 year
period would not be material to the Company.
