A. Notes to Summarized Financial Information
BANNER AEROSPACE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996
(In thousands of dollars except per share data)
The condensed financial information included herein has been prepared by
the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted.
Although the Company believes that the following disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that this
condensed financial information be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1997.
1) Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies
Description of the Business
The Company is a leading international supplier to the aerospace industry.
The Company's products are divided into three product groups: hardware,
rotables and engines. Hardware includes bearings, nuts, bolts, screws, rivets
and other types of fasteners. Rotables include flight data recorders, radar
and navigation systems, instruments, landing gear and hydraulic and electrical
components. Engines include jet engines, engine parts and engine leasing for
use on both narrow and wide body aircraft and smaller engines for corporate and
commuter aircraft. The Company provides a number of services such as immediate
shipment of parts in aircraft on ground situations. The Company also provides
products to original equipment manufacturers and subcontractors ("OEMs") in the
aerospace industry under just-in-time and inventory management programs. The
Company, through its subsidiaries, distributes its products in the United
States and abroad to most of the world's commercial airlines, and to air cargo
carriers, as well as many OEMs, other distributors, fixed-base operations,
corporate aircraft operators and other aerospace and non-aerospace companies.

2) Earnings Per Common Share
Earnings per common share is calculated based on net income available to
common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares
outstanding. Stock options are excluded from the calculation of earnings per
common shares as they would be non-dilutive (see Note 5 in the notes to
summarized financial information for detail on stock options).
3) Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
4) Credit Agreement
On August 2, 1995, the Company entered into a credit agreement ("Credit
Agreement") that provides for working capital and potential acquisitions. On
July 1, 1996, the Company amended the Credit Agreement ("Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement") to provide additional financing as well as require that
loans made to the Company will not exceed a defined borrowing base which is
based upon a percentage of eligible inventories and accounts receivables. On
December 12, 1996, the Company amended the Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement ("Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement") to provide
additional financing and approve the incurrences of subordinated debt and
certain acquisitions. The facility under the Second Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement includes i) a $55,000 six-year term loan ("Term Loan"); ii) a $30,000
seven-year term loan ("Tranche B Loan"); iii) a $40,000 six-year term loan
("Tranche C Loan"); and iv) a $71,500 six-year revolving credit facility
("Revolver"). On March 31, 1997, the Company borrowed $40,000 under the Tranche
C Loan. The Term Loan, Tranche B Loan and Tranche C Loan require certain
semi-annual payments which occur on February 1 and August 1 of each year.
The Term Loan and Revolver bear interest at prime plus 1/4 % to 1 1/2% or
London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 1 1/2% to 2 3/4% based upon
certain performance criteria. As a result of the Company's performance level
through March 31, 1997, borrowings under the Term Loan and Revolver bore
interest at prime plus 3/4% and LIBOR
Page 8 of 20
9
plus 2% for the quarter ended June 30, 1997. The Tranche B Loan bears interest
at prime plus 1 3/4% or LIBOR plus 3.0%. The interest rate for the Tranche C
Loan is initially prime plus 1 1/2% or LIBOR plus 2 3/4%. The interest rate
under the Tranche C Loan may decrease, after September 30, 1997, by 1/4% if
the Company meets certain performance criteria. As a result of the Company's
performance level through June 30, 1997, borrowings under the Term Loan and
Revolver will bear interest at prime plus 3/4% and LIBOR plus 2% for the
quarter ending September 30, 1997. The Revolver was subject to a nonuse fee of
55 basis points of the unused availability for the quarter ended June 30, 1997
and is subject to a nonuse fee of 40 basis points of the unused availability
for the quarter ending September 30, 1997.
The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains certain financial
and nonfinancial covenants which the Company is required to meet on a quarterly
basis. The financial covenants include a minimum net worth, and minimum ratios
of interest coverage, fixed charges and debt to earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company also has certain limitations
on the incurrence of additional debt and has restrictions on cash dividends and
distributions on the capital stock of the Company in that the aggregate amount
of such cash dividends and distributions may not exceed $150 in any fiscal
year. At June 30, 1997, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under
the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Substantially all of the
Company's assets are pledged as collateral under the Second Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement.
In September 1995, the Company entered into several interest rate hedge
agreements ("Hedge Agreements") to manage its exposure to increases in interest
rates on its floating rate debt. The Company entered into the Hedge Agreements
with two of its major lenders to provide interest rate protection on $60,000 of
debt for a period of five years. Effectively, the Hedge Agreements provide for
90 day LIBOR caps of 6.6% to 7.0%. If the 90 day LIBOR drops below the LIBOR
floors of 4.9% to 5.3%, the Company will be required to pay interest at floor
rates of 5.9% to 6.1%. The above rates exclude any spread above LIBOR. No cash
outlay was required as the cost of the cap was offset by the sale of the floor.
In November 1996, the Company entered into an additional hedge agreement
("Additional Hedge Agreement") with one of its major lenders to provide
interest rate protection on an additional $20,000 of debt for a period of three
years. Effectively, the Additional Hedge Agreement provides for a 90 day LIBOR
cap of 7.3%. If the 90 day LIBOR drops below 5.0%, the Company will be required
to pay interest at a floor rate of 5.8%. No cash outlay was required to obtain
the Additional Hedge Agreement as the cost of the cap was offset by the sale of
the floor.
Page 9 of 20
10
The Company recognizes interest expense under the provisions of the Hedge
Agreements and Additional Hedge Agreement based on the fixed rate. The Company
is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the lenders,
however, such non-performance is not anticipated.
5) Stock Options
The Company's Non-Qualified and Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "1990
Stock Option Plan"), adopted in August 1990, authorizes the granting of options
at not less than the fair market value of the stock at the time of the granting
of the options. On September 13, 1996, the stockholders approved an amendment
to the 1990 Stock Option Plan to increase the number of shares of its common
stock ("Common Stock") authorized to be issued under the 1990 Stock Option Plan
and to extend the period under which options may be exercised. The Company has
reserved for issuance two million shares of Common Stock under the 1990 Stock
Option Plan. The option price is payable in cash or, with the approval of the
compensation and stock option committee of the Board of Directors, in shares of
Common Stock, valued at fair market value at the time of exercise. The 1990
Stock Option Plan terminates in the year 2000; however, all stock options
outstanding as of August 2, 2000 shall continue to be exercisable pursuant to
their terms. Under the 1990 Stock Option Plan, all options granted are for a
term of seven years. Options granted on or before August 1, 1993 may be
immediately exercisable and options granted subsequent to August 1, 1993 vest
over a period of three to four years.
On September 13, 1996, the stockholders approved the 1996 Non-Employee
Director Stock Option Plan (the "NED Stock Option Plan"). The Company has
reserved for issuance 150,000 shares of Common Stock under the NED Stock Option
Plan which terminates in the year 2006. However, all stock options outstanding
as of May 29, 2006 shall continue to be exercisable pursuant to their terms.
The option price is payable in cash or, with the approval of the compensation
and stock option committee of the Board of Directors, in shares of Common
Stock, valued at fair market value at the time of exercise. All options are for
a term of five years and vest immediately upon issuance of the grant. Each
newly elected non-employee director shall be granted an option for 5,000 shares
of Common Stock and on the date of each succeeding annual meeting, each
non-employee director elected at such meeting shall be granted an option for
1,000 shares of Common Stock. On September 13, 1996, options for 40,000
Page 10 of 20
11
shares of Common Stock were granted to non-employee directors. In addition,
non-employee directors were granted options for 67,000 shares of Common Stock
prior to the approval of the NED Stock Option Plan.
Stock option activity under the 1990 Stock Option Plan, the NED Stock
Option Plan and non-employee director options granted prior to the approval
of the NED Stock Option Plan for fiscal year 1998 is as follows:

At June 30, 1997, 1,242,200 of the 1,349,200 options outstanding relate to
the 1990 Stock Option Plan and have exercise prices between $4.75 and $9.38 per
share. All fiscal 1998 activity relates to the 1990 Stock Option Plan. The
remaining 107,000 options relate to the NED Stock Option Plan and non-employee
director options granted prior to the approval of the NED Stock Plan and have
exercise prices between $4.63 and $8.13 per share.
6) Acquisitions
On January 16, 1997, the Company, through its subsidiary, Dallas Aerospace,
Inc., acquired 100.0% of the outstanding stock of PB Herndon Company ("PB
Herndon") from the shareholders of PB Herndon ("Sellers"). PB Herndon, located
near St. Louis, Missouri, is a distributor of specialty fastener lines and
other aerospace related components. At closing, the cash purchase price of
$14.7 million was paid to the Sellers. The purchase price was based upon PB
Herndon's net assets as of September 30, 1996 plus capital contributions made
by the Sellers after August 31, 1996. In addition, the Company paid $1.3
million to the Sellers to repay loans made from the Sellers to PB Herndon. To
finance the acquisition of PB Herndon, the Company borrowed $16.0 million under
a subordinated loan agreement (see Note 7 in the notes to summarized financial
information) with RHI Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of The
Fairchild Corporation ("Fairchild"). This acquisition was accounted for using
the purchase method of accounting. The excess of the purchase price over the
net tangible assets acquired is being amortized over 40 years.
Page 11 of 20
12
The supplemental pro forma information for the three months ended June 30,
1996 would have been net sales, $97.9 million; gross profit, $26.2 million;
income from operations before interest and taxes, $4.8 million; net income,
$1.1 million; earnings per common share, $0.05; and 23,400 weighted average
shares outstanding.
7) Related Party Transactions
The Company entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement with Fairchild,
effective May 12, 1997, pursuant to which the Company could acquire Fairchild
Scandinavian Bellyloading Company AB from Fairchild in exchange for 230,000
shares of Common Stock initially. This transaction was approved by a special
committee of the Board of Directors, and was approved by the Company's
stockholders at a meeting on June 18, 1997. Under the terms of the Stock
Exchange Agreement, Fairchild could terminate the agreement if it sold
Fairchild Scandinavian Bellyloading Company AB to a third party by reason of an
unsolicited offer, but Fairchild would be obligated to pay the Company a
reasonable termination fee and the Company's out-of-pocket expenses. On July 1,
1997, Fairchild exercised its option to terminate the Stock Exchange Agreement.
On December 20, 1996, the Company entered into an unsecured subordinated
loan agreement ("Subordinated Loan") with RHI Holdings, Inc. ("RHI"), which is
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fairchild. The purpose of the Subordinated Loan
was to provide funds for acquisitions and any necessary future working capital
requirements of the acquired companies. The Subordinated Loan bore interest at
10.0% per annum for the period commencing on the date of the initial draw and
continuing for a period of six months from the initial draw date. Thereafter,
the Subordinated Loan bore interest at 11.2% per annum. The principal and
accrued interest were deferred until the maturity date of November 15, 2003,
subject to acceleration in certain events specified in the Subordinated Loan. A
commitment fee of 1.5% per annum for six months from the initial draw date,
and 3.0% per annum thereafter, was accrued and payable on the last day of each
month, based on the balance outstanding. As of March 31, 1997, the Company had
borrowed $28,000 under the Subordinated Loan, to fund the purchase of PB
Herndon and other working capital requirements. The Subordinated Loan was
repaid in June 1997 as a result of the preferred stock issuance. Interest paid
to RHI from December 1996 to June 1997 totaled $1,047.
On May 23, 1997, the Company granted all its stockholders certain rights to
purchase Series A Convertible Paid-in-Kind Preferred Stock, $.01 par value. On
June 19, 1997, the Company issued 3,085,885 shares of preferred
Page 12 of 20
13
stock for $28,390,142. The total number of shares of preferred stock issued
was 3,710,955 for total net proceeds of $33,876,314.

Operating Results
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased $22,654 or
24.0% over the comparable prior period. This increase was primarily due to
higher sales recorded by the hardware group, attributable in part to sales of
$5.5 million recorded by PB Herndon which was acquired in January 1997 (see
Note 6 in the notes to summarized financial information). The sales of the
hardware group also increased due to incremental sales to commercial airlines
and OEMs. The sales of the engine group increased compared to the prior period,
primarily due to increased sales of turbine parts and engine management,
partially offset by lack of aircraft sales which had accounted for $6.0 million
in sales the prior period. In addition, the sales of the rotable group
increased compared to the prior period, primarily due to increased sales to
other distributors and incremental sales from a new product line.
The gross profit percentage for the three months ended June 30, 1997
increased to 28.7% compared to 26.7% for the prior period. This increase was
primarily attributable to higher gross margins earned by the hardware group,
due in part to the acquisition of PB Herndon and to the engine group, due to a
lack of aircraft sales in the current period, which have significantly lower
margins. In addition, the rotable group reported increased gross margins.
Page 14 of 20
15
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses as a percentage of
sales declined from 21.5% for the three months ended June 30, 1996 to 20.7% for
the current period. For the three months ended June 30, 1997, SG&A expenses
increased by $3.8 million or 18.9% over the comparable prior period. This
increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to incremental SG&A expenses as a
result of the acquisition of PB Herndon, as well as an increase in SG&A
expenses due to increased sales.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased $1.4
million or 50.9% compared to the prior period, resulting from an increase from
$116 million in the average outstanding debt balance during the prior period,
to $172 million in the current period. In addition, interest expense was
affected by a slight increase in the weighted average interest rate to 9.2% in
the current period compared to 8.9% in the prior period. Interest expense also
includes the amortization of deferred loan costs and charges for nonuse fees,
