It should be understood that the foregoing interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full fiscal year ending September 30, 1998 due in part to increased reliance on estimates at interim dates. 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share," has been adopted by the Company. SFAS 128 replaces primary earnings per share (EPS) with basic EPS and fully diluted EPS with diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS recognizes the potential dilutive effects of the future exercise of common stock options. THREE MONTHS ENDED December 31, 1997 December 31, 1996 ----------------- ----------------- Basic earnings per share $0.23 $0.09 Shares outstanding 1,821,246 1,821,246 Diluted earnings per share $0.22 $0.08 Shares outstanding 1,905,744 1,898,705 Item 2. Management Discussion and Analysis of the Results of Operation Total revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 1997 (first quarter of fiscal 1998) increased 6.2% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1997 and decreased 3.6% as compared to the previous quarter. Operating revenues (total revenues excluding pass through costs) for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 increased 5.7% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1997 and increased 4.0% as compared to the previous quarter. The increase in operating revenues reflects an increase in the demand for the firm's work, particularly in the transportation area. Pass-through costs, expressed as a percentage of total revenues increased to 20.6% as compared to 20.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 and decreased from 26.4% in the previous quarter. Pass-through costs will vary depending on the need for specialty subconsultants and governmental subcontract requirements. Cost of services, expressed as a percentage of operating revenues, decreased to 86.6% as compared to 89.5% for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 and 87.4% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997. The decreases in the percentage for both quarters is primarily due to operating revenues increasing at a greater pace than did cost of services. General and administrative expense, expressed as a percentage of operating revenues, increased to 8.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 from 6.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 and 7.6% in the previous quarter. This increase was due mainly to an increase in labor related expenses. Interest, expressed as a percentage of operating revenues, decreased to 1.4% for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 from 1.8% of the first quarter of fiscal 1997 and 1.9% from the previous quarter. The decreases in the percentage for both quarters is due to lower borrowings as a result of an improvement in cash receipts. Income tax expense for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 was 48.1% of pre-tax income compared to 53.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 and 49.7% in the fourth quarter of 1997. The decrease is due to lower non-deductible expenses as a percentage of a higher first and fourth quarter pre-tax income. Earnings per common share calculated using the Treasury Stock Method for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 were 22 cents based on 1,905,744 shares outstanding which increased from 8 cents for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 based on 1,898,705 shares outstanding. Financial Condition Working capital increased to $9,955,000 from $9,306,000 in the previous quarter. Capital resources available to the Company included an existing line of credit for working capital. The current limit is a maximum of $16.5 million based on accounts receivable and work-in-progress of which approximately $9.1 million is currently available. The Company is in final discussions with its lender and anticipates a reduction of $1.0 million in its line of credit and a reduction in its interest rate of 1/2 percent to 1 percent above the prime rate. The Company believes that it and the lender will maintain a line of credit adequate to meet the current and future financial needs of the Company. The Company is planning to continue its program of purchasing computer-assisted design and drafting equipment as well as a new project management and accounting system. The Company's backlog is approximately $120 million.
