NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
(NOTE 1) - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
General
-------
The financial information herein is unaudited. However, in the opinion of
management, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for the periods being reported. Additionally, it should be noted
that the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not purport
to contain complete disclosures required for annual financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
The results of operations for the nine and three months ended September 30,
2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that can be
expected for the year ending December 31, 2010.
These condensed consolidated statements should be read in conjunction with
the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year
ended December 31, 2009 contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Reclassification
----------------
For comparability, certain 2009 amounts have been reclassified, where
appropriate, to conform to the financial presentation in 2010.
Marketable Securities
----------------------
The Company's investments are classified as available-for-sale securities
and are stated at fair value, based on quoted market prices, with the unrealized
gains and losses, net of income tax, reported in other comprehensive income
(loss). Realized gains and losses are included in investment income. Any decline
in value judged to be other-than-temporary on available-for-sale securities are
included in earnings to the extent they relate to a credit loss. A credit loss
is the difference between the present value of cash flows expected to be
collected from the security and the amortized cost basis. The amount of any
impairment related to other factors will be recognized in comprehensive income.
The cost of securities is based on the specific-identification method. Interest
and dividends on such securities are included in investment income.

Revenue and Cost Recognition
-------------------------------
The Company recognizes a substantial portion of its revenue upon delivery
of product, however, for certain products, revenue and costs under larger,
long-term contracts are reported on the percentage-of-completion method. For
projects where materials have been purchased but have not been placed into
production, the costs of such materials are excluded from costs incurred for the
purpose of measuring the extent of progress toward completion. The amount of
earnings recognized at the financial statement date is based on an
efforts-expended method, which measures the degree of completion on a contract
based on the amount of labor dollars incurred compared to the total labor
dollars expected to complete the contract. When an ultimate loss is indicated on
a contract, the entire estimated loss is recorded in the period the loss is
identified. Assets related to these contracts are included in costs and
estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts as they will
be liquidated in the normal course of contract completion, although this may
require more than one year. The components of cost and estimated earnings in
excess of billings on uncompleted contracts are the sum of the related
contract's direct material, direct labor, manufacturing overhead and estimated
earnings less accounts receivable billings.
Stock Based Compensation
--------------------------
At September 30, 2010, the Company has various stock-based employee
compensation plans. These plans provide for the granting of nonqualified and
incentive stock options as well as restricted stock awards to officers, key
employees and nonemployee directors. The terms and vesting schedules of
stock-based awards vary by type of grant and generally the awards vest based
upon time-based conditions. Share-based compensation expense was $257,000 and
$88,000 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2010, respectively,
and was $233,000 and $76,000, respectively, for the comparable 2009 periods.
The Company estimated the fair value of its stock option awards on the date
of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The assumptions used for stock
grants issued during the following periods were as follows:
Nine Months Ended

Expected Volatility - 61.86%

(unaudited)
(continued)
(NOTE 1) - Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
- -------- --------------------------------------------------------------------
(continued):
- ------------
Expected volatility assumptions were based on the volatility of the
Company's stock price for 4.5 years prior to grant date. The risk-free rate is
derived from the 5 year U.S. treasury yield on grant date. Expected life was
estimated using the "simplified" method, as allowed under the provisions of the
Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Bulletin No. 107, since there was no
prior history of similar stock option grants. Dividend yield is based on prior
history of cash dividends declared.
The Company's stock-based employee compensation plans allow for the
issuance of restricted stock awards that may not be sold or otherwise
transferred until certain restrictions have lapsed. The unearned stock-based
compensation related to restricted stock granted is being amortized to
compensation expense over the vesting period, which ranges from two to ten
years. The share based expense for these awards was determined based on the
market price of the Company's stock at the date of grant applied to the total
number of shares that were anticipated to vest. Approximately 48,000 and 84,000
shares of restricted stock were awarded to senior management and independent
directors during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009,
respectively. As of September 30, 2010, the Company had unearned compensation of
$839,000 associated with all of the Company's restricted stock awards, which
will be expensed over the next four years.
Stock option activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2010,
under all stock option plans is as follows:

$405,000 and $311,000, respectively.

(NOTE 2) - Financing Arrangements:
- -------- -----------------------
During March 2010, the Company entered into a new $3,000,000 line of credit
with a new commercial lender secured by all assets of the Company. In addition,
the Company refinanced its existing term loans with the same aforementioned
commercial lender with a new five-year $4,655,000 term loan facility that
matures April 2015. The unpaid balance on the term loan was $4,189,000 at
September 30, 2010. The interest rate on the line of credit was equal to, at
the Company's option, either 2% plus the one-month LIBOR or the prime rate of
interest plus 0%. The interest rate on the term loan was equal to, at the
Company's option, either 3% plus the one-month LIBOR or the prime rate of
interest plus 0.5%. The aggregate amount of principal outstanding under the
line of credit cannot exceed a borrowing base of eligible accounts receivable
and inventory, as defined. The line of credit will expire on June 1, 2011 unless
sooner terminated for an event of default including adherence to certain
financial covenants. Outstanding borrowings under the line of credit were
$552,000 at September 30, 2010.
The Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants as of
June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010. The Company was not in compliance with one
of its financial covenant ratios as of March 31, 2010. In May 2010, the
Company's lender agreed (i) to waive the covenant default; and (ii) to amend the
financial covenant ratio in question for the remainder of 2010 and to replace it
with a new covenant related to the Company's operating profitability. The
lender, in consideration of such waiver and amendment, assessed a waiver fee of
$25,000 plus legal fees and increased the interest rate on the Company's line of
credit and term debt to the prime rate of interest plus 1% and the prime rate of
interest plus 1.5%, respectively. In addition, the Company agreed to enhanced
reporting and monitoring requirements, to suspend its stock repurchase program
and for all future borrowings to be on a prime rate basis only and not on a
LIBOR basis.

(NOTE 2) - Financing Arrangements (continued):
- -------- ------------------------------------
The Company previously had a credit agreement and three term loan
agreements with a different commercial lender. As a result of lower
profitability related to customer contract and shipping delays during 2008 and
2009, the Company was not in compliance with certain of its financial covenants
for certain reporting periods during 2008 and 2009. In all instances, such
defaults were waived by the Company's lender in consideration for waiver fees.
In March 2010, the Company paid in full the outstanding principal on its term
loans and line of credit with its previous commercial lender.
(NOTE 3) - Net Income (loss) per Common Share:

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net
income (loss) per common share:

shares and assumed

========= ========= ========= =========
The numerator for basic and diluted income (loss) per share for the nine
and three month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 is the net income
(loss) for each period.
Options to purchase 229,000 shares of common stock were outstanding during
the nine and three months ended September 30, 2010 and options to purchase
255,000 shares of common stock were outstanding during the three months ended
September 30, 2009, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings
per share. The inclusion of these options would have been anti-dilutive as the
options' exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the
Company's common shares during the relevant period.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company had a net loss and
therefore did not include 98,000 incremental common shares, respectively, in its
calculation of diluted net loss per common share since an inclusion of such
securities would be anti-dilutive.

other than temporary.

that establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands
disclosure about fair value measurements. This statement enables the reader of
the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements
by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the
information used to determine fair values. The statement requires that assets
and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of
the following three categories:
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities.
Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are
corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
In determining the appropriate levels, the Company performs a detailed analysis
of the assets and liabilities that are subject to ASC 820. All of the Company's
cash and cash equivalents are considered level 1 investments.
The table below presents the balances, as of September 30, 2010 and December 31,
2009, of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by
level within the hierarchy.

(NOTE 6) - Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued):
- -------- -----------------------------------------------------
The Company's only asset or liability that is measured at fair value on a
recurring basis is marketable securities, based on quoted market prices in
active markets and therefore classified as level 1 within the fair value
hierarchy. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
accounts payable and short-term debt reasonably approximate their fair value due
to their relatively short maturities. The fair value estimates presented herein
were based on market or other information available to management. The use of
different assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a significant
effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
(NOTE 7) - Comprehensive Income (loss):
- ------- ---------------------------
For the nine and three months ended September 30, 2010, total comprehensive
income (loss), net of tax, was $(27,000) and $515,000, respectively. For the
comparable periods during 2009, total comprehensive income, net of tax, was
$145,000 and $383,000, respectively. Comprehensive income (loss) consists of the
net income (loss) and unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities, net
of tax.
(NOTE 8) - Business Segments:
- -------- -----------------
The Company operates through two business segments, the Electronics Segment
(or "Electronics Group") and the Power Units Segment (or "Power Group"). The
Electronics Segment is comprised of the Orbit Instrument Division and the
Company's TDL and ICS subsidiaries. The Orbit Instrument Division and TDL are
engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of customized electronic components
and subsystems. ICS performs system integration for Gun Weapons Systems and Fire
Control Interface, as well as logistics support and documentation. The Company's
Power Units Segment, through the Company's Behlman Electronics, Inc. subsidiary,
is engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of distortion free commercial
power units, power conversion devices and electronic devices for measurement and
display.
The Company's reportable segments are business units that offer different
products. The reportable segments are each managed separately as they
manufacture and distribute distinct products with different production
processes.
The following is the Company's business segment information for the nine
and three month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009:

(NOTE 10) - Income Taxes:
- ---------- --------------
The Company recorded $1,000 and $(20,000) of state income and federal
minimum tax expense (benefit) for the nine and three months ended September 30,
2010, respectively. For the comparable 2009 periods, the Company recorded
$50,000 and $14,000 of state income and federal minimum tax expense,
respectively. The Company did not record a tax expense relating to its net
income for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 due to a decrease
to its valuation allowance on its deferred tax asset for the respective periods.
The Company applies ASC 740 relating to accounting for uncertainty in
income taxes. A tax benefit from an uncertain position may be recognized only if
it is "more likely than not" that the position is sustainable based on its
technical merits. Additionally, this pronouncement provides guidance on
derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim
periods, disclosure and transition. The Company does not have any liabilities
for uncertain tax positions at September 30, 2010.
(NOTE 11) - Equity:
- ---------- -------
In August 2008, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock
repurchase program allowing the Company to purchase up to $3.0 million of its
outstanding shares of common stock in open market or privately negotiated
transactions in compliance with applicable laws and regulations including the
SEC's Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18. The timing and amount of repurchases under the
program will depend on market conditions and publicly available information and,
therefore, repurchase activity may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
During the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, the Company repurchased
approximately 700 shares of its common stock at an average purchase price of
$3.44 per share. Total cash consideration for the repurchased stock was
approximately $2,400. From August 2008 through May 2010, the Company purchased
approximately 369,000 shares of its common stock for total cash consideration of
$915,000 representing an average purchase price of $2.48 per share. In May 2010,
in connection with an amendment to its Credit Agreement, the Company was
required to suspend its stock repurchase program.

Executive Overview
- -------------------
We recorded an increase in revenue and profitability for the three months ended
September 30, 2010 as compared to the same quarter in 2009. Our sales increase
was due primarily from increased sales from our Electronics Group. However, our
gross margin for the quarter slightly decreased due to a lower gross profit from
our Power Group due to a slight decrease in sales and product mix. In addition,
due to the increase in sales from the Electronics Group and lower selling,
general and administrative expenses and despite lower sales from our Power
Group, a slight decrease in gross margin and an increase in interest expense,
the Company recorded net income of $509,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2010 compared to net income of $320,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2009.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recorded a slight increase
in sales due to higher sales from our Electronics Group and recorded a slight
profit of $3,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to a
small loss of $27,000 in the same period in 2009. Our gross margins for the
nine month period ended September 30, 2010 decreased from the same period in
2009 and was adversely affected by higher than expected labor and material costs
on our MK 119 contract that was completed by June 30, 2010. Net income before
taxes was $4,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to
$23,000 for the same period in 2009. The slight decrease was principally due to
slightly lower sales from the Power Group, lower gross margins and an increase
in interest expense and despite the increase in sales from the Electronics
Group, a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses and an
increase in investment and other income.
Our backlog at September 30, 2010 was approximately $20,100,000 compared to
$18,900,000 at September 30, 2009. There is no seasonality to our business.
Our shipping schedules are generally determined by the shipping schedules
outlined in the purchase orders received from our customers. Both of our
operating segments are pursuing a significant amount of business opportunities
and, while we are reasonably confident that we will receive a number of the
orders we are pursuing, timing is always an uncertainty and, there can be no
assurance that we will receive any particular order or orders.
Despite weak but improving operating results in 2010, our financial
condition remains strong as evidenced by our 5.1 to 1 current ratio at September
30, 2010. In March 2010, we entered into a new credit agreement with a new
commercial lender pursuant to which we (a) established a line of credit of up to
$3,000,000, and (b) entered into a term loan in the amount of approximately
$4,700,000. These new credit facilities were used to pay off in full our
obligations to our former primary lender pursuant to a prior credit facility and
to provide for us general working capital needs. The new credit facilities are
secured by a first priority lien and security interest in substantially all of
our assets. As a result of our first quarter loss due to shipping schedule
delays, we were not in compliance with one of our financial covenants at March
31, 2010. However, we did negotiate an amendment to our Credit Agreement in May
2010 and we were in compliance with our financial covenants at June 30, 2010 and
September 30, 2010.
In August 2008, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase
program allowing us to purchase up to $3.0 million of our outstanding shares of
common stock in open market or privately negotiated transactions. During the
period from August 2008 through March 31, 2010, we repurchased approximately
369,000 shares at an average price of $2.48 per share. Total consideration for
the repurchased stock was approximately $915,000. In May 2010, in connection
with an amendment to our Credit Agreement, we suspended our stock repurchase
program.
Critical Accounting Policies
- ------------------------------
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and the results of
operations are based on our financial statements and the data used to prepare
them. Our financial statements have been prepared based on accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. On an on-going
basis, we re-evaluate our judgments and estimates including those related to
inventory valuation, the valuation allowance on our deferred tax asset, goodwill
impairment, valuation of share-based compensation, revenue and cost recognition
on long-term contracts accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method
and other than temporary impairment on marketable securities. These estimates
and judgments are based on historical experience and various other assumptions
that are believed to be reasonable under current business conditions and
circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting
policies affect more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of
the consolidated financial statements.
Inventories
- -----------
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost (specific, average and first-in,
first-out basis) or market. Inventory items are reviewed regularly for excess
and obsolete inventory based on an estimated forecast of product demand. Demand
for our products can be forecasted based on current backlog, customer options to
reorder under existing contracts, the need to retrofit older units and parts
needed for general repairs. Although we make every effort to insure the
accuracy of our forecasts of future product demand, any significant
unanticipated changes in demand or technological developments could have an
impact on the level of obsolete material in our inventory and operating results
could be affected, accordingly. However, world events have forced our country
into various situations of conflict whereby equipment is used and parts may be
needed for repair. This could lead to increased product demand as well as the
use of some older inventory items that we had previously determined obsolete.
Deferred Tax Asset
- --------------------
At December 31, 2009, we had an alternative minimum tax credit of approximately
$573,000 with no limitation on the carry-forward period and Federal and state
net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $20,000,000 and $7,000,000,
respectively that expire through 2020. Approximately, $16,000,000 of federal net
operating loss carry-forwards expire between 2010-2012. In addition, we receive
a tax deduction when our employees exercise their non-qualified stock options
thereby increasing our deferred tax asset. We record a valuation allowance to
reduce our deferred tax asset when it is more likely than not that a portion of
the amount may not be realized. We estimate our valuation allowance based on an
estimated forecast of our future profitability. Any significant changes in
future profitability resulting from variations in future revenues or expenses
could affect the valuation allowance on its deferred tax asset and operating
results could be affected, accordingly.
Impairment of Goodwill
- ------------------------
We have a significant amount of goodwill and acquired intangible assets.
In determining the recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, assumptions
are made regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine
the fair value of the assets. After completing the impairment testing of
goodwill and intangible assets, we concluded an impairment charge should be
taken at December 31, 2009 in connection with the recorded goodwill and
intangible assets arising from the acquisition of ICS in 2007. In addition, we
concluded an impairment charge should be taken at December 31, 2008 in
connection with the recorded goodwill arising from our TDL and ICS acquisitions
made between 2005 and 2007.
Our analysis employed the use of both a market and income approach.
Significant assumptions used in the income approach include growth and discount
rates, margins and our weighted average cost of capital. We used historical
performance and management estimates of future performance to determine margins
and growth rates. Discount rates selected for each reporting unit varied. Our
weighted average cost of capital included a review and assessment of market and
capital structure assumptions. The balance of our goodwill for each of our
operating units as of December 31, 2009 is as follows: TDL $820,000, ICS
$795,000 and Behlman $868,000. After the impairment charges taken on the
goodwill and intangible assets of ICS at December 31, 2009, of the three
reporting units with goodwill, TDL, ICS and Behlman has a fair value that is in
excess of its carrying value by approximately 45%, 67% and 33%, respectively.
Considerable management judgment is necessary to evaluate the impact of
operating changes and to estimate future cash flows. Changes in our actual
results and/or estimates or any of our other assumptions used in our analysis
could result in a different conclusion.
Share-Based Compensation
- -------------------------
We account for share-based compensation awards by recording compensation
based on the fair value of the awards on the date of grant and expensing such
compensation over the vesting periods of the awards, which is generally one to
ten years. Total share-based compensation expense was $257,000 and $233,000 for
the nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The
estimated fair values of stock options granted in 2009 were calculated using the
Black-Scholes model. No stock options have been granted in 2010. This model
requires the use of input assumptions. These assumptions include expected
volatility, expected life, expected dividend rate, and expected risk-free rate
of return.
Revenue and Cost Recognition
- -------------------------------
Revenue and costs under larger, long-term contracts are reported on the
percentage-of-completion method. For projects where materials have been
purchased, but have not been placed in production, the costs of such materials
are excluded from costs incurred for the purpose of measuring the extent of
progress toward completion. The amount of earnings recognized at the financial
statement date is based on an efforts-expended method, which measures the degree
of completion on a contract based on the amount of labor dollars incurred
compared to the total labor dollars expected to complete the contract. When an
ultimate loss is indicated on a contract, the entire estimated loss is recorded
in the period. Assets related to these contracts are included in current assets
as they will be liquidated in the normal course of contract completion, although
this may require more than one year.
Marketable Securities
- ----------------------
We currently have approximately $400,000 invested in government and
corporate bonds. We treat our investments as available-for-sale which requires
us to assess our portfolio each reporting period to determine whether declines
in fair value below book value are considered to be other than temporary. We
must first determine that we have both the intent and ability to hold a security
for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in its fair
value to its amortized cost. In assessing whether the entire amortized cost
basis of the security will be recovered, we compare the present value of future
cash flows expected to be collected from the security (determination of fair
value) with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the impairment is
determined to be other than temporary, the investment is written down to its
fair value and the write-down is included in earnings as a realized loss, and a
new cost is established for the security. Any further impairment of the
security related to all other factors is recognized in other comprehensive
income. Any subsequent recovery in fair value is not recognized until the
security either is sold or matures.
We use several factors in our determination of the cash flows expected to be
collected including i) the length of time and extent to which market value has
been less than cost; ii) the financial condition and near term prospects of the
issuer; iii) whether a decline in fair value is attributable to adverse
conditions specifically related to the security or specific conditions in an
industry; iv) whether interest payments continue to be made and v) any changes
to the rating of the security by a rating agency. Although we received all our
interest payments during the prior period, we recorded an other than temporary
impairment write-down of $39,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009
consisting of bonds held in two separate issuers in which we determined the
decline in fair value was due to adverse conditions specifically related to the
security or specific conditions in an industry. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2010, we recorded a gain of approximately $109,000 on a corporate
bond sold at par on which an other than temporary impairment charge was taken in
a prior period.
Results of Operations
- -----------------------
Three month period ended September 30, 2010 v. September 30, 2009
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We currently operate in two industry segments. Our Orbit Instrument
Division and our TDL subsidiary are engaged in the design and manufacture of
electronic components and subsystems and our ICS subsidiary performs system
integration for Gun Weapons Systems and Fire Control Interface as well as
logistics support and documentation (the "Electronics Group"). Our Behlman
subsidiary is engaged in the design and manufacture of commercial power units
and COTS power solutions (the "Power Group").
Consolidated net sales for the three month period ended September 30, 2010
increased by 6.2% to $7,299,000 from $6,876,000 for the three month period ended
September 30, 2009 due to higher sales from our Electronics Group and despite
slightly lower sales from our Power Group. Sales from our Electronics Group
increased by 10.7%, due principally to increased sales from our Orbit Instrument
Division and TDL subsidiary and despite lower sales from our ICS subsidiary.
Sales at ICS decreased during the current period due to the award of less MK 119
cabinets than the prior year. Revenue on this contract is accounted for under
the percentage of completion method. Sales from our Power Group decreased by
3.0% from the prior year due to decreased sales from its COTS division and
despite increased sales from its commercial division.
Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, for the three months ended
September 30, 2010 decreased to 38.6% from 39.6% for the three month period
ended September 30, 2009. This decrease resulted from a lower gross profit from
our Company's Power Group, principally due to slightly lower sales and product
mix and despite a slightly higher gross profit from our Electronics Group. The
higher gross profit from our Electronics Group was principally due to a higher
gross profit at our Orbit Instrument Division due to increased sales and despite
a lower gross profit at TDL due to product mix and at ICS due to lower sales and
higher projected costs to meet its new MK 119 order, which is accounted for
under the percentage of completion method.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by 5.0% to
$2,297,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 from $2,419,000
for the three month period ended September 30, 2009 principally due to slightly
lower selling, general and administrative expenses from both our Electronics and
Power Groups and lower corporate costs. Selling, general and administrative
expenses, as a percentage of sales, for the three month period ended September
30, 2010 decreased to 31.5% from 35.2% for the three month period ended
September 30, 2009 principally due to both an increase in sales as well as a
decrease in expenses.
Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010 increased to
$61,000 from $53,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 due to an
increase in the interest rate paid and despite a decrease in the amounts owed to
lenders in the current period due to the pay down of our term debt.
Investment and other income for the three month period ended September 30,
2010 decreased to $32,000 from $81,000 for the three month period ended
September 30, 2009 principally due a decrease in the amounts invested during the
period.
Net income before taxes was $489,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2010 compared to 334,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The
increase in net income before taxes was principally due to the increase in sales
from the Electronics Group and a decrease in selling, general and administrative
expenses, notwithstanding a decrease in sales from the Power Group, a slight
decrease in gross margins, an increase in interest expense and a decrease in
investment and other income.
We had an income tax benefit of $20,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2010 principally due to the reversal of certain state income taxes previously
accrued. Income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2009 consist of
$14,000 in state income and Federal minimum taxes that cannot be offset by any
state or Federal net operating loss carry-forwards.
As a result of the foregoing, net income for the three months ended September
30, 2010 was $509,000 compared to $320,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2009.
Earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization (EBITDA)
for the three months ended September 30, 2010 increased to $625,000 from
$565,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Listed below is the
EBITDA reconciliation to net income:

========== ==========
EBITDA is a Non-GAAP financial measure and should not be construed as an
alternative to net income. An element of our growth strategy has been through
strategic acquisitions which have been substantially funded through the issuance
of debt. This has resulted in significant interest expense and amortization
expense. EBITDA is presented as additional information because we believe it is
useful to our investors and management as a measure of cash generated by our
business operations that will be used to service our debt and fund future
acquisitions as well as provide an additional element of operating performance.
Nine month period ended September 30, 2010 v. September 30, 2009
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Consolidated net sales for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010
increased by 4.1% to $19,803,000 from $19,029,000 for the nine month period
ended September 30, 2009 due to higher sales from our Electronics Group and
despite slightly lower sales from our Power Group. Sales from our Electronics
Group increased by 10.5%, due principally to increased sales from our ICS and
TDL subsidiaries and despite slightly lower sales from our Orbit Instrument
Division. Sales from our Power Group decreased by 4.9% from the prior year due
to decreased sales from its COTS division and despite increased sales from its
commercial division.
Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, for the nine months ended September
30, 2010 decreased to 36.4% from 39.7% for the nine month period ended September
30, 2009. This decrease resulted from a lower gross profit from both our
Company's Electronics and Power Group. The decrease in gross profit from the
Electronics Group was principally due to a lower gross profit at ICS due to
higher than expected labor and material costs associated with the MK 119
contract which was completed by June 30, 2010. Gross profit at our Orbit
Instrument Division also decreased due to a decrease in sales and product mix
and gross profit at TDL decreased due principally to product mix and despite a
slight increase in sales. Gross profit from the Power Group slightly decreased
from the prior year due to the decrease in sales and to product mix.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by 4.0% to
$7,246,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 from $7,551,000
for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 principally due to lower
selling, general and administrative expenses from both our Electronics and Power
Groups and to lower corporate costs. Selling, general and administrative
expenses, as a percentage of sales, for the nine month period ended September
30, 2010 decreased to 36.6% from 39.7% for the nine month period ended September
30, 2009 principally due to both an increase in sales as well as a decrease in
expenses.
Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 increased to
$172,000 from $141,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 due to an
increase in the interest rate paid and despite a decrease in the amounts owed to
lenders in the current period due to the pay down of our term debt.
Investment and other income for the nine month period ended September 30,
2010 increased to $213,000 from $157,000 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2009 principally due to a recorded gain, in the second quarter, of
approximately $109,000 on a corporate bond sold at par on which an other than
temporary impairment charge was taken in a prior period and; despite a decrease
in the amounts invested during the period.
Net income before taxes was $4,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
2010 compared to $23,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The
slight decrease was principally due to slightly lower sales from the Power
Group, lower gross margins and an increase in interest expense and despite the
increase in sales from the Electronics Group, a decrease in selling, general and
administrative expenses and an increase in investment and other income.
Income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $1,000 consisting
of state income and Federal minimum taxes that cannot be offset by any state or
Federal net operating loss carry-forwards that was offset by the reversal of
certain state income taxes previously accrued. Income taxes for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009 was $50,000 consisting of state income and Federal
minimum taxes that cannot be offset by any state or Federal net operating loss
carry-forwards.
As a result of the foregoing, net income for the nine months ended September 30,
2010 was $3,000 compared to a net loss of $27,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009.
Earnings (loss) before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization
(EBITDA) for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 decreased to $476,000 from
$702,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Listed below is the
EBITDA reconciliation to net income:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- ----------------------------------
Working capital decreased to $15,693,000 at September 30, 2010 compared to
$16,558,000 at December 31, 2009. The ratio of current assets to current
liabilities was 5.1 to 1 at September 30, 2010 compared to 4.8 to 1 at December
31, 2009. The reduction in working capital was primarily attributable to the
repayments of debt and an increase in the long term deferred tax asset.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2010 was $1,113,000, primarily attributable to non-cash
depreciation and stock compensation expense, the decrease in inventory and costs
and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts and
despite the non-cash gain from the sale of marketable securities. Net cash
provided by operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 was
$1,432,000, primarily attributable to the decrease in accounts receivable and
the non-cash amortization of intangible assets, depreciation and stock
compensation expense and despite the increase in costs and estimated earnings in
excess of billings on uncompleted contracts and the decrease in accounts
payable.
Cash flows provided by investing activities for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2010 was $356,000, primarily attributable to the sale of
marketable securities that was partially offset by the purchase of fixed assets.
Cash flows used in investing activities for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2009 was $337,000, primarily attributable to the purchase of fixed
assets that was partially offset by the sale of marketable securities.
Cash flows used in financing activities for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2010 was $1,165,000, primarily attributable to the repayment of
long term debt and note payable-bank which was partially offset by the proceeds
from the issuance of long term debt and the exercise of stock options. Cash
flows used in financing activities for the nine month period ended September 30,
2009 was $844,000, primarily attributable to the repayment of long term debt and
the purchase of treasury stock that was partially offset by loan proceeds from
the line of credit.
In April 2005, we entered into a five-year $5,000,000 term loan agreement
to finance the acquisition of TDL and its manufacturing affiliate ("TDL Term
Loan"). In December 2007, we entered into a five-year $4,500,000 term loan
agreement to finance the acquisition of ICS ("ICS Term Loan"). Principal
payments under the two term loan facilities were approximately $113,000 per
month. In December 2007, we also amended an existing $3,000,000 line of credit
facility with a commercial lender secured by accounts receivable, inventory and
property and equipment. In connection with the ICS Term Loan entered into in
December 2007, the interest rates on both term loan facilities and the line of
credit facility were amended to equal a certain percentage plus the one month
LIBOR (0.26% at September 30, 2010) depending on a matrix related to a certain
financial covenant. The line of credit facility was to continue from year to
year unless sooner terminated for an event of default including non-compliance
with certain financial covenants.
In April 2005, we entered into a five year, $2,000,000 promissory note with
the selling shareholders of TDL ("TDL Shareholder Note") at an interest rate of
prime plus 2.00% (3.25% at September 30, 2010). Principal payments of $100,000
were made on a quarterly basis along with accrued interest. In June 2007, we
refinanced the $1,050,000 balance due on the TDL Shareholder Note with our
primary commercial lender. Under the terms of the new term loan entered into
with our primary commercial lender ("TDL Refinanced Shareholder Loan"), monthly
payments of $35,000 were made over a thirty-month period (through January 2010)
along with accrued interest pursuant to the interest terms described below. The
TDL Refinanced Shareholder Loan was paid off in January 2010.
As a result of lower profitability related to customer shipping delays in
the first and second quarter of 2008, we were not in compliance with two of our
financial covenants at September 30, 2008. In November 2008, our primary lender
waived the covenant default of two of our financial ratios at September 30, 2008
and we renegotiated the financial covenant ratios for the quarterly reporting
periods December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2009. Beginning June 30, 2009, the
covenants were to revert back to their original ratios with a modification to a
certain financial ratio covenant definition. The lender instituted an unused
line fee of .25% per annum, as a cost to us for the waiver and amendment to the
loan agreements. In connection therewith, the interest rate on the TDL Term
Loan and TDL Refinanced Shareholder Loan, increased to the sum of 2.50% plus the
one month LIBOR and the interest rate on the ICS Term Loan and line of credit
was increased to the sum of 2.25% plus the one month LIBOR. We were in
compliance with all financial covenants at March 31, 2009.
As a result of decreased revenue and profitability due to the customer
contract delay for the MK 119 that is recorded under the percentage of
completion method, we were not in compliance with two of our financial covenant
ratios as of June 30, 2009. In August 2009, our primary lender agreed to waive
these covenant defaults. The lender, in consideration of such waiver, assessed
a waiver fee of $10,000 and increased the interest rate on all term debt,
including the TDL Term Loan, TDL Refinanced Shareholder Loan and ICS Term Loan,
and the line of credit equal to the sum of 3.50% plus the one month LIBOR. In
addition, we agreed to reduce our line of credit from $3,000,000 to $2,500,000
until October 31, 2009, at which time it was further reduced to $2,000,000.
As a result of the customer contract delay for the MK 119 and capital
expenditures made for our new TDL operating facility, we were not in compliance
with two of our financial covenant ratios at September 30, 2009. In November
2009, our primary lender agreed to waive the covenant defaults as of September
30, 2009 and to amend the requirement for two of the financial ratios at
December 31, 2009 and for one of the financial ratios at March 31, 2010. Our
lender, in consideration of such waiver, assessed a waiver fee of $15,000 and
increased the interest rate on all term debt, including the TDL Term Loan, TDL
Refinanced Shareholder Loan and ICS Term Loan, and the Line of Credit to the sum
of 4.00% plus the one month LIBOR. In addition, we agreed to reduce our Line of
Credit from $2,000,000 to $1,500,000 at December 31, 2009. We were in compliance
with all financial covenants at December 31, 2009.
On March 10, 2010, we entered into a new credit agreement (the "Credit
Agreement") with a new commercial lender pursuant to which we (a) established a
new line of credit of up to $3,000,000, and (b) entered into a term loan in the
amount of approximately $4,655,000. These new credit facilities were used to
pay off all of our obligations to our former primary lender and to provide for
our general working capital needs. The new credit facilities are secured by a
first priority security interest in substantially all of our assets.
The term loan is payable in 60 consecutive monthly installments of principal and
interest and matures on March 1, 2015. The line of credit matures on June 1,
2011. Payment of interest on all loans is due at a rate per annum (at our
option) as follows: (1) for a prime rate loan under the line of credit at a rate
equal to the Prime Rate established by the Bank plus 0%, (2) for a prime rate
loan under the term loan at a rate equal to the Prime Rate established by the
Bank plus 0.5%, (3) for a LIBOR loan under the line of credit at a rate equal to
LIBOR plus 2% and (4) for a LIBOR loan under the term loan at a rate equal to
LIBOR plus 3%.
The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants and
certain financial covenants. Available borrowings under the line of credit are
subject to a borrowing base of eligible accounts receivable, inventory and, for
the term loan facility only, cash and marketable securities. The Credit
Agreement also contains customary events of default such as non-payment,
bankruptcy and material adverse change.
As a result of our first quarter loss, primarily due to shipping schedule
delays, we were not in compliance with one of our financial covenants at March
31, 2010. In May 2010, our lender agreed (i) to waive the covenant default; and
(ii) to amend the financial covenant ratio in question for the remainder of 2010
and replace it with a new covenant related to the Company's operating
profitability. The lender, in consideration of such waiver and amendment,
assessed a waiver fee of $25,000 plus legal fees and increased the interest rate
on our line of credit and term debt to the prime rate of interest plus 1% and
the prime rate of interest plus 1.5%, respectively. In addition, we agreed to
enhanced reporting and monitoring requirements, to suspend our stock repurchase
program, and all future borrowings to be on a prime rate basis only and not on a
LIBOR basis.
At June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010, we were in compliance with our
financial covenants.
Our existing capital resources, including our bank credit facilities and our
cash flow from operations, are expected to be adequate to cover our cash
requirements for the foreseeable future.
In August 2008, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase
program allowing us to purchase up to $3.0 million of our outstanding shares of
common stock in open market or privately negotiated transactions. During the
period from August 2008 through March 31, 2010, we repurchased approximately
369,000 shares at an average price of $2.48 per share. Total consideration for
the repurchased stock was approximately $915,000. In May 2010, in connection
with the amendment to our Credit Agreement, we suspended our stock repurchase
program.
Inflation has not materially impacted the operations of our Company.
Certain Material Trends
- -------------------------
During the first quarter of 2010, our revenue and profitability was
adversely affected by approximately $2.8 million in production orders contained
in the backlog of our Orbit Instrument Division and TDL subsidiary, some of
which was scheduled for delivery in the first quarter, that were delayed due to
technical issues at the prime contractor level that was unrelated to our
hardware. Shipments on the orders for our Orbit Instrument Division,
approximating $800,000, will commence in the fourth quarter and continue into
2011. Shipment for the $2,000,000 in orders for our TDL subsidiary was
initially postponed until 2011; however, in November 2010, TDL received
notification that its prime contractor was terminated by the U.S. Government.
TDL does not have any significant termination claim on this contract.
During the third quarter of 2010 and during the current fourth quarter, our
Orbit Instrument Division has received several new follow-on contract awards for
its legacy hardware. Based on these awards and expected contracts to be
received in the fourth quarter, we expect our Orbit Instrument Division, in
2010, to record its highest level of bookings in many years. In addition, the
Division was recently notified by its prime contractor on a program that it
provides one of its products related to Federal Aviation Administration air
traffic control towers that it is seeking to procure a significant amount of
units which could approximate $4,400,000. Delivery schedules for these units
have not yet been determined. However, due to its increasing backlog and this
latest opportunity, our Orbit Instrument Division appears well positioned for
increased revenue and profitability in 2011.
ICS experienced a delay in the award for its MK 119 Gun Console System which
affected its first and second quarter shipments in 2009. This award was finally
received by ICS at the end of September 2009. ICS had commenced the procurement
process of material and labor resources were allocated to the job beginning in
the second quarter. As a result, certain cabinets were delivered by year end
2009 but due to the delay in the receipt of the award, other cabinets were not
delivered until the second quarter of 2010. We did experience a similar delay
in the award of the MK 119 Gun Console System to ICS in 2010; deliveries are
expected by June 2011. Shipment delays related to contracting, funding and
engineering issues are commonplace in our industry and could, in the future,
have an adverse effect on our financial performance.
During the fourth quarter of 2009, in addition to the significant delay in the
receipt of the MK 119 order, we were notified by our customer that a replacement
was under consideration for a portion of future MK 119 requirements for which
ICS was being considered but not guaranteed of future awards. Consequently, we
believe that cash flows for ICS in the immediate future, particularly with
respect to MK 119 orders, could potentially decrease.
After completing the impairment testing of goodwill and intangible assets
pursuant to ASC 350 and ASC 360, we concluded an impairment charge of $1,622,000
and $426,000 should be taken in connection with the recorded intangible assets
and goodwill arising from the acquisition of ICS in 2007. However, ICS, in
addition to its bid on two of the replacement programs, is currently being
considered as a subcontractor for one of the prime contractors currently bidding
for the Littoral Combat Ship which is a significant program being considered by
the U.S. Navy. In the event that the MK 119 awards or other replacement
opportunities diminish, the fair market value of the goodwill for ICS of
$795,000 could be further impaired.
Our Power Group had a record year of bookings and revenue in 2008 and another
record year of revenue in 2009. The commercial division of our Power Group has
historically been vulnerable to a weak economy. Bookings in the commercial
division were weak during most of 2009 but bookings from the COTS division
remained fairly strong. However, despite current economic conditions and its
effect on capital spending, our Power Group's commercial division recorded its
strongest bookings of the year in the fourth quarter of 2009. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this improvement did not carry over into the first quarter of
2010 although bookings did improve in the second and third quarters of 2010.
However, due to continued weakness in the economy, it is uncertain whether the
improvement in the bookings from the commercial division can be sustained
through the remainder of 2010. The strength of our COTS division will position
our Power Group for a strong year of revenue and profitability for 2010 but
improvement in the commercial division will be needed to continue its trend of
record revenues.
In April 2005, we completed the acquisition of TDL and its operations became
part of our Electronics Group. In December 2007, we completed the acquisition
of ICS which also became part of our Electronics Group. Our Electronics Group
and the COTS Division of our Power Group are heavily dependent on military
spending. The events of September 11, 2001, have put a tremendous emphasis on
defense and homeland security spending and we have benefited from an increasing
defense budget. Although our Electronics Group and our COTS Division of our
Power Group are pursuing several opportunities for reorders, as well as new
contract awards, we have normally found it difficult to predict the timing of
such awards. In addition, we have an unprecedented amount of new opportunities
that are in the prototype or pre-production stage. These opportunities
generally move to a production stage at a later date but the timing of such is
also uncertain.
There is no seasonality to our business. Our revenues are generally
determined by the shipping schedules outlined in the purchase orders received
from its customers. We stratify all the opportunities we are pursuing by
various confidence levels. We generally realize a very high success rate with
those opportunities to which we apply a high confidence level. We currently
have a significant amount of potential contract awards to which we have applied
a high confidence level. However, because it is difficult to predict the timing
of awards for most of the opportunities we are pursuing, it is also difficult to
predict when we will commence shipping under these contracts. A delay in the
receipt of any contract from our customer ultimately causes a corresponding
delay in shipments under that contract. During 2007 through 2009, due to
shipping schedules resulting from contract delays, our second half of the year
was stronger than the first half. We again expect the second half of 2010 to be
stronger than the first half due to shipping schedules.
Despite the increase in military spending, we still face a challenging
environment. The government is emphasizing the engineering of new and improved
weaponry and it continues to be our challenge to work with each of our prime
contractors so that we can participate on these new programs. In addition,
these new contracts require incurring up-front design, engineering, prototype
and pre-production costs. While we attempt to negotiate contract awards for
reimbursement of product development, there is no assurance that sufficient
monies will be set aside by our customers, including the United States
Government, for such effort. In addition, even if the United States Government
agrees to reimburse development costs, there is still a significant risk of cost
overrun that may not be reimbursable. Furthermore, once we have completed the
design and pre-production stage, there is no assurance that funding will be
provided for future production. In such event, even if we are reimbursed our
development costs it will not generate any significant profits.
We are heavily dependent upon military spending as a source of revenues and
income. However, even increased military spending does not necessarily
guarantee us increased revenues, particularly, when the allocation of budget
dollars may vary depending on what may be needed for specific military
conflicts. Any future reductions in the level of military spending by the United
States Government due to budget constraints or for any other reason, could have
a negative impact on our future revenues and earnings. We believe that defense
budget dollars that are allocated to modernization and refurbishment of military
equipment will generally benefit us. In addition, due to major consolidations
in the defense industry, it has become more difficult to avoid dependence on
certain customers for revenue and income. Behlman's line of commercial products
gives us some diversity and the additions of TDL and ICS gives our Electronics
Segment a more diversified customer base.
Our business strategy had been to expand our operations through strategic,
accretive acquisitions. Through the past several years, we reviewed various
potential acquisitions and believe there are numerous opportunities presently
available, particularly to integrate into our current operating facilities. In
April 2005, we completed the acquisition of TDL and in December 2007, we
completed the acquisition of ICS. However, due to current economic conditions
and tightening of credit markets, there can be no assurance that we will obtain
the necessary financing to complete additional acquisitions and even if we do,
there can be no assurance that we will have sufficient income from operations of
such acquired companies to satisfy the interest payments, in which case, we will
be required to pay them out of our operations which may be adversely affected.
During the second quarter of 2007, we expanded the activities of our investment
banker to include the pursuit of alternative strategies, including the potential
sale of the Company as a means of enhancing shareholder value. In June 2008, we
terminated such activities with the investment banker. In May 2009, we hired a
new investment banker and continue to pursue strategic alternatives to enhance
stockholders value. Our investment banker's activities have been primarily
focused on a potential sale of our Company. However, there is no assurance that
a sale will be accomplished.
