NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2001, and the results of its operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001, and 2000, and cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000. The results of operations and cash flows for the nine month period ended September 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows which may be reported for the remainder of 2001. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for reporting on Form 10-Q. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in connection with the Company's December 31, 2000 financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. NOTE 2 - REALIZATION OF ASSETS The Company is highly leveraged. Furthermore, the Company's liquidity and ability to meet its obligations as they become due for the remainder of 2001 are subject to, among other things, continued access to the Company's Credit Facility and compliance with the terms and covenants of the Company's Credit Facility. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company sustained substantial losses in 1999, 2000 and 2001; has used, rather than provided, cash in its operations in 1999 and 2000; and has deficits in working capital and stockholders' equity at December 31, 2000 and September 30, 2001. Recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheets are dependent upon continued operations of the Company. This in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to meet its financing requirements on a continuing basis, to maintain present financing, and to succeed in its future operations. A breach of any of the financial covenants in the Company's Credit Facility could result in a default under this Credit Facility. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Facility, the lender could elect to declare all amounts outstanding, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable. Management has taken steps to revise its operations and financial requirements, which it believes are sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue in existence. In 2000, the Company extended its Credit Facility due date to June 24, 2010 and the maximum availability under its line of credit to $26.8 million. NOTE 3 - CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS AND GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATIONS: In October 1997, the Company, its founder, its directors, certain of its officers, a former officer and director, its former auditor and its underwriter were named in three civil suits filed as class actions on 4 <Page> behalf of individuals claiming to have purchased the Company's Common Stock during the period from March 1997 to September 1997, and seeking damages for violation of federal securities laws. The federal court approved the settlement of these three suits in March 1999. In connection with the settlement, the Company incurred total expenses of $620,000 in 1999, of which $140,000 was paid in cash and $480,000 was the value of 80,000 shares of Common Stock issued to the plaintiffs at the time of the settlement. In May 2000, in connection with an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") of alleged violations of federal securities laws by the Company, the Company consented to the entry of a federal court injunction enjoining the Company from future violations of the federal securities laws. The Company did not admit or deny any allegations made by the SEC in the investigation. In October 2000, the Company entered into a plea agreement with the U.S. Attorney's Office in Los Angeles, California under which the Company entered a guilty plea to a three-count criminal information alleging that the Company conspired to violate Title 15, United States Code, Sections 77q(a)and 77x, and violated Title 15, United States Code, Sections 77x,78m(b)(2)(A), 78m(b)(5) and 78ff, and Title 17, Code of Federal Regulations, Section 240.13b2-1 in connection with the preparation of the Company's financial records and the filing of the Company's financial statements during the period through approximately August 1997. As a part of the plea agreement, the Company agreed to pay a total fine of $750,000 payable $50,000 at the time of sentencing (which occurred in November 2000), $150,000 on March 31, 2001, $250,000 on March 31, 2002, and $300,000 on March 31, 2003. In addition, the Company was placed on probation until the fine is paid in full or until December 31, 2002, whichever is later. The settlement fine has been recorded as $642,016, in the Company's statement of operations as of September 30, 2000 based on the present value on that date of the proposed payments (using a 10% interest assumption). The Company has paid the first two installments on this settlement as of September 30, 2001. The U.S. Attorney's Office in Los Angeles has indicted the Company's founder, Osamah S. Bakhit, and Mr. Bakhit's trial is pending. Any judgment against Mr. Bakhit may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business. The Company is involved in certain legal and administrative proceedings and threatened legal and administrative proceedings arising in the normal course of its business. While the outcome of such proceedings and threatened proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes the ultimate resolution of these matters individually or in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on the Company. NOTE 4 - DEBT ARRANGEMENTS On February 23, 2000, the Company amended its Credit Facility with GMAC to extend the loan maturity date to June 24, 2010. In conjunction with this amendment, GMAC was issued 208,762 warrants. These warrants and 126,600 warrants issued to GMAC in 1998 gave GMAC warrants equal to 9.9% of the outstanding stock of the Company or 335,362 warrants. The exercise price of the warrants is $0.25 and the warrants expire on February 28, 2010. The fair value of the total warrants issued to GMAC was determined to be $818,000 and such warrants are being amortized to interest expense over a ten-year period beginning in 2000. As a condition for the extension of the credit facility, the Company entered into a $2,000,000 promissory note, due in a balloon payment on the earlier of February 1, 2010, or if the Company's stock reaches a $6.00 per share value over 10 consecutive trading days, or the occurrence of one of several events, none of which have occurred. The $2,000,000 has been reflected as debt issue 5 <Page> costs in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and is being amortized to interest expense over the ten-year term of the promissory note. The note bears interest at GMAC's Alternate Base Rate and interest is payable semi-annually. GMAC has a fully perfected security interest against all assets of the Company and to a personal guarantee and pledge of 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock from the Company's founder. On September 12, 2000 the Company received approval from GMAC for a $10 million working capital line to finance the purchase of inventory related to the servicing of the Company's contracts with major foreign airlines. The Company implemented the use of this line in October, 2000 which is guaranteed by the export-import Bank of the United States, the official export credit agency of the U.S. government and which carries an interest rate of Prime plus 1.0%. The working capital line is used in conjunction with the Company's $26.8 million Credit Facility. As of September 30, 2001, the Company was not in compliance with certain of the covenants of its line of credit with GMAC including an over advance on its line of credit exceeding the Company's asset borrowing base of $2,674,445. GMAC has waived the covenant violations for the quarter ended September 30, 2001. NOTE 5 -SALES As can be seen in the table below, the Company derives the majority of its revenue from distributed services sales. These sales involve the Company taking possession of inventory purchased in order to fulfill a customer sales order. The purchases are generally received and inspected by the Company before being shipped on to the customer. The remainder of the Company's revenue is derived through the sale of inventory the Company has purchased in bulk purchases and put into its stock. As can be seen below, these bulk purchases have historically had gross margins substantially higher than the Company's distributed services sales. See Note 6 for further discussion on these inventories purchased for stock purposes. <Table> <Caption> THREE MONTHS ENDED NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, SEPTEMBER 30, ------------------ ------------------ 2001 2000 2001 2000 ------- ------- ------- ------- (in 000's) (in 000's) Distributed Services Sales $ 5,479 $ 9,137 $22,721 $25,684 Costs of Distributed Services Sales 4,543 7,161 18,509 20,152 Gross Margin 936 1,976 4,212 5,532 Gross Margin % 17.1% 21.6% 18.5% 21.5% Bulk Purchased Inventory Sales $ 755 $ 975 $ 1,926 $ 2,700 Costs of Purchased Inventory Sales 429 271 1,267 961 Provision for Inventory Reserve 1,285 - 1,931 - Gross Margin (959) 704 (1,272) 1,740 Gross Margin % (1,270.2)% 72.2% (66.0)% 64.4% </Table> The Company's return policy allows customers up to ten days to return parts if proper regulatory documentation has not been included. Returns occurring after that are at the Company's discretion and include restocking fees. Historically, returns have not been material to gross revenue. 6 <Page> Export sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, were approximately 59.5% and 66.0%, respectively, of the Company's net sales. Export sales by region were approximately as follows: <Table> <Caption> SEPTEMBER 30, ----------------------- 2001 2000 ---- ---- Pacific Rim 4.3% 4.9% Europe 21.3 30.8 Latin/South America 29.3 20.8 Africa/Middle East 4.6 9.5 ---- ---- 59.5% 66.0% ==== ==== </Table> NOTE 6 -INVENTORY Historically, the Company has made bulk purchases of inventory. In general, bulk inventory purchases allow the Company to obtain large inventories of aircraft parts at a lower cost than can ordinarily be obtained by purchasing such parts on an individual basis. Inventory acquired through bulk purchases is often not expected to be sold immediately and will often take many years to dispose. However, the Company normally yields a higher margin on sales of inventory acquired through bulk purchases as opposed to inventory acquired for immediate sale. The Company determines its reserve for obsolescence or excess inventory by comparing the carrying value of inventory to current broker prices, by getting periodic appraisals and by reviewing sales activities of bulk purchased inventory by purchase class. The Company has a reserve for lower of cost or market estimate and excess and/or obsolete inventory of $2,421,000 and $490,000 at September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. The Company has approximately 90,000 stock keeping units ("sku") in its inventory stock. In the current quarter, the Company has undertaken to test its inventory by sku for the need of lower of cost or market and obsolescence reserves. In the current quarter, approximately 37% of the Company's inventory has been analyzed through a detailed market analysis, which consists of Company sales personnel seeking quotes for each of its sku's. In the current quarter, this analysis resulted in additional reserves for the Company's inventory of approximately $1.3 million. The Company anticipates to continue this policy at each quarter and anticipates analyzing a similar percentage of its inventory each quarter. Due to the nature of the inventory on-hand as described above, the Company believes it is appropriate to make an estimation based on historical averages of inventory to be sold within one year and classify the remaining balances of inventory as non-current. The Company has classified $7,977,000 and $11,722,000 as non-current inventories as of September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000. 7 <Page> ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion includes the operations of the Company for each of the periods discussed. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto, which are included elsewhere in this document. This discussion contains "forward looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Such forward looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and actual results could differ from those described herein and future results may be subject to numerous factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. The "forward looking statements" reflect the Company's current view about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. These risks, uncertainties and assumptions include: - The continued cooperation of the Company's lender, GMAC Commercial Credit LLC in waiving covenant violations, supporting its overadvance and not foreclosing on the Company's assets. - Adverse consequences related to the Company's substantial debt. - Continued losses through the aviation industry downturn. - Further write-downs of the Company's inventories and accounts receivable. - The Company's ability to acquire adequate inventory and to obtain favorable pricing for its inventory. - Customer concentrations The Company believes that its lender, GMAC, will continue to fund the Company's overadvance and waive its covenant violations. Were the Company's lender to foreclose on the Company's assets secured in its credit facility, the Company would be liquidated. In order to stem the continued losses the Company has incurred, Management has reduced budgeted selling, general and administrative expenses. Budget cuts include reduced business travel, professional fees, the elimination of 5 sales and administrative positions and 15% to 25% salary cuts for the Company's management. OVERVIEW Net sales consist primarily of gross sales, net of allowance for returns and other adjustments. Cost of sales consists primarily of product costs, freight charges and an inventory provision for lower of cost or market estimates, damaged, excess and obsolete products. Product costs consist of the acquisition costs of the products and costs associated with repairs, maintenance and certification. Net sales and gross profit fluctuate based on the volume and timing of sales orders received during the period and the mix of aircraft parts contained in the Company's inventory. The timing of bulk inventory purchases can impact sales and gross profit. In general, bulk inventory purchases allow the Company to obtain large inventories of aircraft parts at a lower cost than can ordinarily be obtained by purchasing such parts on an individual basis. CONTINUING DEVELOPMENTS IN THE COMPANY'S MARKET ENVIRONMENT Economic and other factors that are affecting the airline industry have negatively impacted, and may continue to negatively impact, the Company's business. Pricing of the inventory the Company needs for its business is affected to a degree by the overall economic condition of the airline industry, which has historically been volatile. The demand for after-market aircraft engines and parts is driven primarily by flying hours or cycles. 8 <Page> These parts must be serviced or replaced at scheduled intervals. As a result, the demand for after-market parts is a function of the volume of worldwide air traffic. Additionally, factors such as the price of fuel affect the aircraft parts market, since older aircraft (into which repaired or overhauled aircraft parts are most often placed) become less economically viable as the price of fuel increases. During a downturn in the aviation industry, there may be reduced overall demand for the products the Company provides, lower selling prices for its products and increased credit risk associated with doing business with industry participants. The aircraft parts aftermarket experienced a downturn during 2000, which has continued and worsened in 2001. As a result, a number of companies in the industry have encountered financial difficulties. Consequently, many companies within the industry have been forced to sell inventory at reduced prices in order to generate cash. The Company's gross margin and fair value of inventory have been negatively affected by these deteriorating conditions. Additionally, according to recent reports by a few large airlines, during 2001, the airline industry has begun to experience a significant slowdown in overall traffic, which the Company's management believes has reduced demand for aftermarket parts. The Company has experienced the affects of this downturn in the second quarter of 2001. As a result, the Company has recorded an increase to its inventory reserve of $1,285,000 for excess quantities and lower of cost or market writedowns. The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Company's operations for the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 (dollars in thousands): <Table> <Caption> THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, -------------------------------- 2001 2000 ---- ---- Net sales $ 6,234 100.0% $ 10,113 100.0% Cost of sales 6,257 100.4% 7,432 73.5% -------- ----- -------- ----- Gross profit (23) (0.4%) 2,680 26.5% Selling and administrative expenses 2,468 39.6% 1,540 15.2% Settlement Fine -- 0.0% 642 8.6% Non-recurring expenses -- 0.0% 216 2.1% -------- ----- -------- ----- Income (loss) from operations (2,492) (40.0%) $ 283 2.8% Interest expense, net 746 12.0% 853 8.4% Provision for income taxes 3 0.0% 0 0.0% -------- ----- -------- ----- Net loss $ (3,240) (52.0%) $ (570) (5.6%) ======== ===== ======== ===== </Table> NET SALES. Net sales decreased from $10.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 to $6.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001, a decrease of $3.9 million or 38.4%. This decrease was mainly the result of an overall slowdown in the aviation industry as a whole causing decreased demand for the Company's inventory sales. COST OF SALES. Cost of sales decreased from $7.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 to $6.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001, a decrease of $1.2 million or 15.8%. This decrease was primarily attributable to the 38.4% decrease in net sales, increases in the Company's reserves for excess and obsolete inventory and the overall decrease in gross margins due to the decline in the aviation market as a whole. 9 <Page> GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit decreased from $2.7 million or 26.5% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2000 to $0 gross margin or 0.0% of net sales for the three months September 30, 2001, a decrease of $2.7 million or 100.0%. The decrease in gross profit dollars and percentage of net sales is due to the substantial increase in inventory reserves of $1.3 million and pricing pressures due to the overall industry slowdown. SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling and administrative expenses consisted primarily of wages and commission expense, bad debt expense, rent expense, professional fees, consulting expenses and travel expenses. The Company's selling and administrative expense increased from $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 to $2.5 million for three months ended September 30, 2001, an increase of $.9 million or 60.3%. This increase is due primarily to a significant increase in the Company's allowance for bad debt caused by customers' financial condition deteriorating as a result of the slow-down in the aviation industry. INCOME FROM OPERATIONS. The Company had income from operations of $.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 compared to a loss from operations of $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001, a decrease of $2.8 million or 982.0%. The decrease in operating income is due to the decrease in gross margins and increases in selling and administrative expenses. INTEREST EXPENSES. Net interest expense decreased from $853,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 to $746,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2001. This decrease was due to decreases in the Company's lending rate experienced in the third quarter. NET LOSS. The Company had a net loss of $570,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2000 compared to a loss of $3.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001, due to the foregoing factors. 10 <Page> The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Company's operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 (dollars in thousands): <Table> <Caption> NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, -------------------------------- 2001 2000 ---- ---- Net sales $ 24,647 100.0% $ 28,385 100.0% Cost of sales 21,707 88.1% 21,113 74.4% -------- ----- -------- ----- Gross profit 2,940 11.9% 7,272 25.6% Selling and administrative expenses 7,005 28.4% 4,564 16.1% Settlement Fine -- 0.0% 642 3.0% Non-recurring expenses -- 0.0% 238 0.8% -------- ----- -------- ----- Income (loss) from operations (4,065) (16.5%) 1,828 6.4% Interest expense, net 2,294 9.3% 2,259 8.0% Other income -- 0.0% 5 0.0% -------- ----- -------- ----- Loss before provision for income taxes (6,359) (25.8%) (426) (1.5%) Provision for income taxes 3 0.0% -- 0.0% -------- ----- -------- ----- Net loss $ (6,362) (25.8%) $ (426) (1.5%) ======== ===== ======== ===== </Table> NET SALES. Net sales were $28.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and $24.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. The decrease in sales are due primarily to the industry slowdown the aviation industry has experienced in the second and third quarter of 2001. There have been substantial changes in the Company's customer base due to the overall decline in the aviation industry. The Company has increased its market share in South America and has incurred slowdowns in its European sales. COST OF SALES. Cost of sales increased from $21.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to $21.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, an increase of $594,000 or 2.8%. This increase was primarily attributable to pricing pressures due to the industry slow-down realized in the second and third quarter of 2001 and substantial increases in the Company's reserves for inventories of approximately $1.3 million. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit decreased from $7.3 million or 25.6% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to $2.9 million or 11.9% of net sales for the nine months September 30, 2001, a decrease of $4.3 million or 64.4%. The decrease in gross profit dollars and percentage of net sales is due to the substantial increase in inventory reserves and pricing pressures due to the overall industry slowdown. SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling and administrative expenses consisted primarily of wages and commission expense, bad debt expense, rent expense, professional fees, consulting expenses and travel expenses. The Company's selling and administrative expense increased from $4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to $7.0 million for nine months ended September 30, 2001, an increase of $2.4 million or 53.5%. This increase is due primarily to a significant increase to the Company's bad debt reserve of 11 <Page> $666,000 caused by customers financial status deteriorating through the aviation industry slow-down, professional fees and travel expenses as the Company has tried to increase sales through new distribution channels. INCOME FROM OPERATIONS. The Company had income from operations of $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to a loss from operations of $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. The loss from operations is due to the decrease in gross margins and increases in selling and administrative expenses. INTEREST EXPENSES. Interest expense was $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. The Company experienced greater use of its line of credit which was offset by decreases in the Company's lendor's lending rate. NET LOSS. The Company had a net loss of $426,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to a loss of $6.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, due to the foregoing factors. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's cash flows from operating activities used $7.6 million and provided $375,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 2001, respectively. The largest cash uses in the 2000 period were an increase in accounts receivable of $5.5 million, an increase in inventory of $3.3 million which includes a bulk purchase of $3.6 million, offset by an increase in accounts payable and checks issued not yet presented for payment totalling $1.3 million. For the 2001 period, cash was provided by operating activities primarily from increases in accounts payable of $1.1 million and a decrease in inventory (predominantly due to increased excess, obsolete and lower of cost or market reserves) and accounts receivable of $3.2 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The 2000 financing activities provided cash of $7.7 million, primarily resulting from an increase in line of credit borrowings. The 2001 financing activities used $305,000 of cash due to principal payments on long-term debt and capital leases of $486,000 and $9,000, respectively, offset by a $190,000 increase on the Company's line of credit borrowings. The Company had a working capital deficit of $20.2 million and $17.3 million as of September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. This was primarily due to increases in borrowings on the Company's line of credit and accounts payable resulting from the cash requirements for increases in the Company's operating losses and increases in the Company's reserves for excess and obsolete inventory and bad debts. On February 23, 2000, the Company amended its Credit Facility with GMAC to extend the loan maturity date to June 24, 2010. In conjunction with this amendment, GMAC was issued 208,762 warrants. These warrants and 126,600 warrants issued to GMAC in 1998 gave GMAC warrants equal to 9.9% of the outstanding stock of the Company or 335,362 warrants. The exercise price of the warrants is $.25 and the warrants expire on February 28, 2010. The fair value of the total warrants issued to GMAC was determined to be $818,283 and such warrants are being amortized to interest expense over a ten year period beginning in 2000. As a condition for the extension of the credit facility, the Company entered into a $2,000,000 promissory note, due in a balloon payment on the earlier of February 1, 2010, or if the Company's stock reaches a $6 per share value over 10 consecutive days, or the occurrence of one of several events, none of which have occurred. The $2,000,000 has been reflected as debt issue costs in the accompanying Consolidated balance sheet and is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the promissory note. The note bears interest at GMAC's Alternate Base Rate and interest is payable semi-annually. On September 12, 2000 the Company received approval from GMAC for a $10 12 <Page> million working capital line to finance the purchase of inventory related to the servicing of the Company's contracts with major foreign airlines. The Company implemented the use of this line in October, 2000 which is guaranteed by the export-import Bank of the United States the official export credit agency of the U.S. government and which carries an interest rate of Prime plus 1%. The working capital line is used in conjunction with the Company's $26.8 million Credit Facility. The Company's long-term debt consists of the following at September 30, 2001: (i) term loan of $500,000 to GMAC, due in quarterly principal installments of $125,000 with an interest rate of 2.0 percent above the lenders alternate base rate; (ii) note payable of $100,000 to the founder of the Company (iii) capital lease obligations of $12,670, (v) settlement fee debt of $496,230, (vi) note payable of $300,000 to corporations' and (vii) note payable of $2,000,000 to GMAC, due in February 2010. The Company's credit facility with GMAC is an asset-based line of credit secured by accounts receivable and inventory and is the primary source for the Company to finance its operations and growth. At September 30, 2001 the balance on the credit facility was $23,882,245. The Company may need to increase its capital base in order to continue to meet its growth objectives. There can be no assurance that such additional capital will be available on a timely basis or at acceptable terms.
