NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year 1996. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report to shareholders and Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995. 6 ITEM II. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Dollars in thousands, except per share data) As an aid to understanding the Company's operating results, the following table shows the percentage of sales that each income statement item represents for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995. Percent of Sales Percent of Sales Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30 June 30, 1996 1995 1996 1995 Sales 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales 58.5 55.4 58.8 55.5 Gross profit 41.5 44.6 41.2 44.5 Selling, general and administrative 23.9 24.6 22.7 24.4 Research, development and engineering 7.2 7.5 6.7 7.2 Operating expenses 31.1 32.1 29.4 31.6 Income from operations 10.4 12.5 11.8 12.9 Other income 2.6 1.6 1.6 1.8 Income before income taxes 13.0 14.1 13.4 14.7 Income taxes 4.0 4.1 4.2 4.5 Net income 9.0% 10.0% 9.2% 10.2% Sales Sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 of $31,176 increased 16.3% over sales for the second quarter of 1995. Year-to-date 1996 sales through June have increased 20.0% over their 1995 level. The sales increase was realized across most product lines. Sales of capital equipment represent 58% of year-to-date sales. Sales for 1996 include sales of Western Filter, acquired in October 1995, but do not include any sales from Desalination Systems, Inc. (DESAL). The previously announced merger with DESAL was completed in July 1996. Gross Margin The gross margin for the second quarter of 1996 was 41.5% versus 44.6% for the corresponding period in 1995. The gross margin for the six months ended June 30 was 41.2% in 1996 and 44.5% in 1995. The reduction in gross margin was due to a less favorable sales mix, more aggressive pricing in certain product lines, and some effect of higher material costs. Sales in 1996 include order backlog acquired from Western Filter in October 1995, which was at lower gross margins than other Osmonics products. 7 Operating Expenses Operating expenses decreased from 32.1% of sales in the second quarter of 1995 to 31.1% in the second quarter of 1996, and from 31.6% of sales in the first half of 1995 to 29.3% of sales in the first half of 1996. The rate of growth in operating expense slowed to 11.5%, compared to the sales growth rate of 20.0%. The aggressive expansion in sales and marketing efforts during the prior two years is now producing results, and recent investments in office automation are also showing good returns in higher productivity. Other Income Other income increased by $101 from the first half of 1995 to the first half of 1996. The increase included $715 of gain on the sale of investments and $640 of gain on the sale of land. The usefulness of the land as a future facility site for the Company was impaired by a county road expansion. Income Taxes The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was 31.0% based on the forecast for the full year. This compares to 30.5% in the corresponding period of 1995. Net Income Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 was $2,813, up 5.3% from $2,671 in the corresponding quarter last year. Net income per common share for the quarter was $0.22 versus $0.21 a year ago. Year-to-date net income was $5,975, up 9.2% from $5,471 in 1995. Net income per common share year-to-date was $0.47 in 1996 versus $0.43 in 1995. Liquidity and Capital Resources As of June 30, 1996, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $23,067 versus $30,668 at December 31, 1995. This reduction in cash and marketable securities is primarily the result of investments of $8,497 in new facilities and equipment. The current ratio was 3.1 at June 30, 1996, as compared to 2.9 at year-end 1995. The Company believes that its current cash and investments position, its cash flow from operations, and amounts available from bank credit will be adequate to meet its anticipated cash needs for working capital, capital expenditures, and potential acquisitions during the foreseeable future. Stock Option Plans The Company has elected to continue accounting for stock options in accordance with APB 25 as provided by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." 8 Private Securities Litigation Reform Act The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a "safe harbor" for forward-looking statements. Certain information included in this Form 10-Q and other materials filed or to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as well as information included in oral or other written statements made or to be made by the Company) contains statements that are forward-looking. Such statements may relate to plans for future expansion, business development activities, other capital spending, financing, or the effects of regulation and competition. Such information involves important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect anticipated results in the future and, accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those relating to product development activities, dependence on existing management, global economic and market conditions, and changes in federal or state laws. 9 OSMONICS, INC.
