These notes are unsecured with a fixed interest rate of 10.4 percent. The notes mature through June 1997, with the next payment of $2,813,000 due in June 1996. In October 1995, the Company entered into a $15,000,000 revolving line of credit agreement with a major domestic bank. As of April 30, 1996, the Company did not have borrowings outstanding under this line. The Company's ability to satisfy its cash requirements is evaluated by analyzing key measures of liquidity applicable to the Company. The following table is a summary of the measures which are significant to management: April 30, October 31, April 30, 1996 1995 1995 Working Capital $47,145,000 $42,374,000 $42,109,000 Current Ratio 2.19 to 1 2.35 to 1 2.38 to 1 Debt to Capitalization .10 to 1 .10 to 1 .15 to 1 The consolidated statements of cash flows show that approximately $95,000 of cash was generated during the six months ended April 30, 1996. The increases in accounts receivable requiring the use of cash was due to the increased volume of business and product shipment delays. Increases in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings and accounts payable had a positive effect on the Company's cash flow during the quarter. The use of cash for capital expenditures during the six months of 1996 was $1,366,000 which was mainly invested in machinery and equipment. The Company's fiscal 1996 asset management program will continue to focus on the collection of receivables and reduction in inventories. The Company plans to satisfy its fiscal 1996 capital requirements and operating needs primarily with funds available in cash and cash equivalents of $3,130,000, funds generated from operating activities and funds available under its existing revolving credit line. 9 10 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth, as a percentage of revenues, certain items from the Consolidated Statements of Operations. April 30, --------- 1996 1995 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- three months six months three months six months ended ended ended ended ----------- ---------- ------------ ---------- Revenues 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Gross Profit 23.5 22.2 21.6 21.2 Selling, general and administrative expenses 15.7 15.6 16.0 16.6 Interest, net .2 .1 .4 .4 Net earnings before income tax 7.6 6.5 5.2 4.2 Income tax provision 2.7 2.3 1.7 1.3 Net earnings 4.9 4.2 3.5 2.9 Revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 1996 were up 29 percent to $53,521,000 from $41,398,000 in the second quarter of last year. Revenues for the six months ended April 30, 1996 were up 32 percent to $103,090,000 from $77,987,000 in the first six months of last year. This increase in volume was due to higher electrical distribution equipment product line revenues which were partially offset by lower revenues from process control product lines. Gross profit, as a percentage of revenues, was 23.5 percent and 21.6 percent for the quarters ended April 30, 1996 and 1995. The gross profit percentage for the six months ended April 30, 1996 and 1995 was 22.2 percent and 21.2 percent, respectively. The higher percents in 1996 were due to changes in product mix shipped during 1996 and efficiencies due to the increased volume of activity. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues was 15.7 percent and 16 percent for the quarters ended April 30, 1996 and 1995. These percentages for the six months ended April 30, 1996 and 1995 were 15.6 percent and 16.6 percent. The change in percent reflects the effect of higher revenue volume without a corresponding increase in expenses. Interest, net is lower in 1996 than in 1995 due to the scheduled annual reduction in outstanding debt. Income tax provision The effective tax rate was 35.2 percent and 33.1 percent for the quarters ended April 30, 1996 and 1995. For the six months ended April 30, 1996 and 1995 the effective tax rate was 35.4 percent and 31.7 percent respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher foreign sales corporation credits in the previous year and the higher projected tax rate for 1996 due to an increased level of taxable income. Net earnings were $2,643,000 or $.25 per share for the second quarter of fiscal 1996, an increase of 81 percent from $1,458,000 or $.14 per share for the same period last year. For the six months ended April 30, 1996, net earnings were $4,326,000 or $.40 per share, compared with $2,261,000 or $.21 per share for the first six months of fiscal 1995, an increase of 91 percent. The increases for the two quarters of 1996 were mainly due to the higher revenue volumes. The order backlog at April 30, 1996 was $130.4 million compared to $112.6 million at October 31, 1995. 10 11 Part II OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
