PART I/ITEM 1--CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (a) The condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this Form 10-QSB have been prepared from the accounting records without audit on a basis consistent with the financial statements included in the Company's annual report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the preceding fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The information furnished reflects all adjustments and disclosures which are, in the opinion of management, of a normal, recurring nature, and necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company's 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the entire year. (b) Composition of certain balance sheet captions (in thousands): JUNE 30, SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 1996 ----------- ------------- (UNAUDITED) Accounts receivable: Trade........................................................... $ 358 $ 736 Less allowance for doubtful accounts............................

(4,773) (4,688) ----------- ------------- $ 630 $ 631 ----------- ------------- (c) The calculation of net income (loss) per share is based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. During the three month and nine month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, the common equivalent shares were antidilutive due to losses in those periods and, accordingly, were excluded from the computation of loss or income per share for those periods. (d) In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share". This Statement is effective for the Company's fiscal year ending September 30, 1997. The Statement redefines earnings per share under generally accepted accounting principles under the new standard, primary earnings per share is replaced by basic earnings per share and fully diluted earnings per share is replaced by diluted earnings per share. The Company does not expect the adoption of this Statement to have a significant impact on the previously reported loss per share. 6 EIP MICROWAVE, INC. PART I/ITEM 2--MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION CONTAINS TREND INFORMATION AND OTHER FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE A NUMBER OF RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THE COMPANY'S HISTORICAL RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND THOSE DISCUSSED IN THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE IDENTIFIED UNDER THE HEADING "CERTAIN FACTORS" BELOW. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1997, were $1,013,000, a 38% decrease from net sales of $1,642,000 in the same period last year. Net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, were $3,560,000, a 27% decrease from net sales of $4,886,000 for the same period last year. The decrease in net sales for both periods was primarily attributable to lower export sales of frequency counters. Gross margin increased to 43% in the third fiscal quarter of 1997, from 34% in the third fiscal quarter of 1996. Gross margin increased to 39% for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, from 37% for the same period last year. The increase in gross margin percentage for both periods ended June 30, 1997, was primarily attributable to an increase in sales of higher gross margin units and an improved gross margin for VXI products. Incoming orders for the third fiscal quarter were $809,000, a 68% decrease from orders of $2,453,000 for the same period a year ago. Orders for the quarter ended June 30, 1996, included a $1,020,000 order for VXI products, and there was no equivalent large order during the same period this year. In addition, incoming export orders for frequency counters were $466,000 less in the third quarter of the current year than the same period last year. Incoming orders for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, were $3,213,000, a 36% decrease from orders of $5,007,000 for the same period a year ago. The decrease in orders for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, resulted primarily from a shortfall in domestic and international large order bookings, particularly the lack of a large VXI order in the third fiscal quarter of the current year, and international base level bookings. Backlog at June 30, 1997, was $404,000, a 69% decrease from a backlog of $1,292,000 at the end of the third fiscal quarter last year. Research, development and engineering expenses decreased 12% to $228,000 in the third fiscal quarter of 1997, compared to $258,000 for the same quarter last year. Research, development and engineering expenses were $722,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, comparable to $724,000 for the same period last year. The decrease in research, development and engineering expenses in the third fiscal quarter of 1997 was primarily due to reduced use of outside independent contractors and general expense control. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 9% to $453,000 during the third fiscal quarter of 1997, compared to $496,000 for the same quarter last year. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 9% to $1,416,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, compared to $1,548,000 in the same period last year. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses for both periods is due primarily to decreased commission expense resulting from decreased sales volume and overall expense control, compared to the same periods last year. The Company recorded a net loss of $278,000 for the third fiscal quarter of 1997, as compared to a net loss of $197,000 recorded during the same period last year. A net loss of $793,000 was recorded for the nine months ended June 30, 1997, as compared to a net loss of $319,000 recorded for the same period last year. Gains on sale of capital equipment of $57,000 and $98,000, respectively, are included in interest and other in the net losses for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 1997. Further the net loss for 7 EIP MICROWAVE, INC. PART I/ITEM 2--MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED) the nine months ended June 30, 1996 reflects a credit of $111,000 due to the waiver of fees owed by the Company to members of the Board of Directors, and a gain on sale of capital equipment of $50,000. The increase in losses for the three month and nine month periods ended June 30, 1997, compared to the same periods last year, is primarily due to decreased sales. FINANCIAL CONDITION At June 30, 1997, the Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment balance was $284,000, as compared with a cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment balance of $540,000 at September 30, 1996. At June 30, 1997, the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures. At June 30, 1997, working capital decreased $216,000 from September 30, 1996, and the Company's current ratio decreased to 1.36:1 from 1.42:1 over the same time period. At June 30, 1997, the Company had outstanding borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of $296,000 under its bank line of credit (the "Bank Line"). The Bank Line provides for borrowings up to 60% of eligible accounts receivable, not to exceed $500,000. Interest is charged at the bank's prime rate plus 3% per annum, provided that the interest rate in effect each month shall not be less than 10% per annum, and is payable monthly (11.5% as of June 30, 1997). The Bank Line expires on March 4, 1998. The Bank Line contains various restrictive covenants requiring, among other matters, the maintenance of minimum levels of tangible net worth and profitability and certain financial ratios, including a minimum quick ratio and a maximum debt to net worth ratio. The Bank Line also precludes or limits the Company's ability to take certain actions, such as paying dividends, making loans, making acquisitions or incurring indebtedness, without the bank's prior written consent. The Bank Line is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. At June 30, 1997, the Company was in default under the restrictive covenants of the Bank Line. In the event that the Company is unable to maintain compliance with its financial covenants under the Bank Line, J. Bradford Bishop, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and John F. Bishop, the Vice Chairman, Treasurer and Secretary of the Company (the "Bishops"), have agreed to finance up to $500,000 of working capital, in addition to the Subordinated Notes (described below), on terms acceptable to the Bishops and the Company to replace the Bank Line. At June 30, 1997, the Company had outstanding borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of $600,000 under subordinated notes (the "Subordinated Notes") payable to the Bishops. The Subordinated Notes must be repaid by the Company by February 1, 2000. Interest is charged at 8% per annum, and is payable quarterly. The Subordinated Notes are subject to various restrictive covenants, including restrictions on dividends, mergers and the sale of substantially all assets of the Company. The Subordinated Notes are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. In connection with the Subordinated Notes, the Company issued warrants entitling the Bishops to purchase 90,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $3.00 per share. The warrants will expire on December 16, 2001. The Bishops have subordinated the Subordinated Notes to the Bank Line. At June 30, 1997, the Company also had outstanding borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of $150,000 under a demand note (the "Bridge Loan") to the Bishops. Interest is charged at 10% per annum. Principal and interest under the Bridge Loan is payable on demand. The Bridge Loan is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. In addition to cash on hand and funds generated from operations, the Company believes that additional cash of approximately $250,000 will be necessary to satisfy its cash requirements for the 8 EIP MICROWAVE, INC. PART I/ITEM 2--MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED) remainder of the fiscal year ending September 30, 1997. Further, additional funds will be required to satisfy the Company's cash requirements during fiscal 1998. The Company is in the process of reviewing proposals for the infusion of additional debt and/or equity capital into the Company. Any such additional capital will likely have a dilutive impact on the holders of the Company's Common Stock. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such capital. If the Company is unable to obtain additional debt or equity capital on a timely basis, the Company will be required to significantly curtail its planned operations, and its business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially adversely affected. CERTAIN FACTORS IN ADDITION TO THE FACTORS DISCUSSED ELSEWHERE IN THIS QUARTERLY REPORT ON FORM 10-QSB, THE FOLLOWING ARE IMPORTANT FACTORS WHICH COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS OR EVENTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE CONTAINED IN ANY FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT MADE BY OR ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY. PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND INTRODUCTION The Company expects to continue to invest in research and development of new products, and plans to begin producing a new frequency measurement product line in fiscal year 1997. Due to the uncertainty associated with any product development and introduction (such as delays in development and lack of market acceptance of a new product), there can be no assurances that the Company's development and introduction efforts will be successful. If the new frequency measurement product line is not successfully introduced in fiscal year 1997, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially adversely affected. LIQUIDITY In addition to cash on hand and funds generated from operations, the Company believes that additional cash of approximately $250,000 will be necessary to satisfy its cash requirements for the remainder of the fiscal year ending September 30, 1997. Further, additional funds will be required to satisfy the Company's cash requirements during fiscal 1998. The Company is in the process of reviewing proposals for the infusion of additional debt and/or equity capital into the Company. Any such additional capital will likely have a dilutive impact on the holders of the Company's Common Stock. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such capital. If the Company is unable to obtain additional debt or equity capital on a timely basis, the Company will be required to significantly curtail its planned operations, and its business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially adversely affected. Further there can be no assurance that the Company's existing cash resources and any funds obtained by infusion of additional debt and/or equity capital will be sufficient to satisfy the Company's operating requirements. The actual cash resources required will depend upon numerous factors, including those described under "Product Development and Introduction" above and "Other Factors" below. OTHER FACTORS The Company's results of operations are also affected by a wide variety of other factors, including fluctuations in customer demand, competitive factors (such as pricing pressures on existing products and the timing and market acceptance of new product introductions by competitors of the Company), and both 9 EIP MICROWAVE, INC. PART I/ITEM 2--MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED) general economic conditions and conditions specific to the microwave and RF test and measurement industry. Due to the foregoing and other factors, past results are not a reliable predictor of future results. In addition, the securities of many technology and developmental companies, such as the Company, have historically been subject to extensive price and volume fluctuations that may adversely affect the market price of their common stock. PART II--OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES The Company's Bank Line contains various restrictive covenants requiring, among other matters, the maintenance of minimum levels of tangible net worth and profitability and certain financial ratios, including a minimum quick ratio and a maximum debt to net worth ratio. The Bank Line also precludes or limits the Company's ability to take certain actions, such as paying dividends, making loans, making acquisitions or incurring indebtedness, without the bank's prior written consent. In addition, the Subordinated Notes are subject to various restrictive covenants, including restrictions on dividends, mergers and the sale of substantially all assets of the Company. The Bank Line and the Subordinated Notes are more fully described in Part I/Item 2--Financial Condition. ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES At June 30, 1997, the Company was in default under the restrictive covenants of the Bank Line. The Bank Line, among other restrictive covenants, requires that losses for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 1997 not exceed $165,000. The Company's actual losses were $278,000 for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 1997. The principal amount outstanding under the Bank Line was $296,000 at June 30, 1997. The Company has requested that the bank waive the existing default and amend the restrictive covenants under the Bank Line. The Bank Line is more fully described in Part I/Item 2--Financial Condition. ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION On May 29, 1997, the Company announced that it has entered into a five-year OEM Agreement with a major company considered to be one of the leaders in test and measurement instrumentation. The Agreement contemplates the sale of EIP's recently developed line of microwave counters to the OEM customer on a private label basis for worldwide distribution. The sale of products under the OEM Agreement is subject to satisfactory completion of initial testing. On June 25, 1997, the Company's Common Stock, trading under the symbol EIPM was delisted from The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (the "Nasdaq Stock Market"), because the Company no longer complied with the criteria established by the Nasdaq Stock Market for continuation of listing. Although the Common Stock was delisted from the Nasdaq Stock Market, to the extent market makers in the Common Stock continue to enter bid and ask prices, the Company's Common Stock will be quoted in the OTC Bulletin Board or, in the alternative, in the National Quotation Bureau's Pink Sheets.
