NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the indicated periods. The Company uses estimated gross profit rates to determine the cost of goods sold during interim periods on a portion of its operations. Actual results could differ from those estimates and will be adjusted, as necessary, following the Company's annual physical inventory in the fourth quarter. 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year. 3. The Company extends credit on the basis of terms that are customary within our markets to various companies doing business primarily in the automotive industry. The Company has a concentration of credit risk primarily within the automotive industry and in the Midwestern United States. 4. The Company is, from time to time, involved in litigation, including environmental claims, in the normal course of business. While it is not possible at this time to establish the ultimate amount of liability with respect to contingent liabilities, including those related to legal proceedings, management is of the opinion that the aggregate amount of any such liabilities, for which provision has not been made, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position. 7 CHICAGO RIVET & MACHINE CO. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 5. Segment Information--The Company operates in two business segments as determined by its products. The fastener segment includes rivets, cold-formed fasteners and screw machine products. The assembly equipment segment includes automatic rivet setting machines, parts and tools for such machines and the leasing of automatic rivet setting machines. Information by segment is as follows: ASSEMBLY FASTENER EQUIPMENT OTHER CONSOLIDATED ------------ ------------ ---------- ------------- Three Months Ended March 31, 2004: Net sales and lease revenue $ 8,261,283 $ 1,907,681 $ - $ 10,168,964 Depreciation 371,340 28,518 32,820 432,678 Segment profit 574,733 434,003 - 1,008,736 Selling and administrative expenses 580,129 580,129 Interest expense - - Interest income (14,381) (14,381) ------------ Income before income taxes 442,988 ------------ Capital expenditures 61,512 - - 61,512 Segment assets: Accounts receivable, net 4,767,831 876,592 - 5,644,423 Inventory 3,396,822 1,940,895 - 5,337,717 Property, plant and equipment, net 8,789,175 1,420,013 969,220 11,178,408 Other assets - - 6,849,376 6,849,376 ------------ 29,009,924 ------------ Three Months Ended March 31, 2003: Net sales and lease revenue $ 8,360,151 $ 1,876,312 $ - $ 10,236,463 Depreciation 370,696 40,101 52,521 463,318 Segment profit 1,003,112 443,455 - 1,446,567 Selling and administrative expenses 747,540 747,540 Interest expense 9,585 9,585 Interest income (19,799) (19,799) ------------ Income before income taxes 709,241 ------------ Capital expenditures 71,881 10,417 - 82,298 Segment assets: Accounts receivable, net 4,468,032 880,452 - 5,348,484 Inventory 4,123,346 2,310,311 - 6,433,657 Property, plant and equipment, net 9,755,512 1,501,276 1,144,390 12,401,178 Other assets - - 6,274,140 6,274,140 ------------ 30,457,459 ------------ 8 CHICAGO RIVET & MACHINE CO. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Results for the first quarter of 2004 were somewhat encouraging. Revenues and profits were both stronger than those of the prior three quarters, although both fell short of the results achieved during the first quarter of 2003. In addition, demand for some of our products seems to be improving, albeit modestly. Within the fastener segment, revenues amounted to $8,261,283, which is slightly more than 1% below fastener segment revenues recorded in the first quarter of 2003. However, while there was not a significant change in total revenues within this segment, a larger portion of the total revenues was related to the shipment of lower margin parts than was the case during the first quarter of 2003. In addition, we incurred significant costs related to pre-production approval for many new parts. While it is normal to incur such costs prior to launching full production, it is unusual to have so many new parts in such a short span of time. These costs amounted to approximately 4% of segment revenues during the quarter, and were the primary reason that manufacturing costs increased compared to the first quarter of 2003. We anticipate that revenues from the shipment of these new parts will ramp up during the remainder of the year and that this business will have a positive impact upon results. Revenues within the assembly equipment segment, improved slightly compared with the first quarter of 2003 and amounted to $1,907,681. Gross margins within this segment were essentially unchanged from the year earlier period. Slight increases in the cost of raw materials were offset by modest improvements in efficiency and a reduction in depreciation expense. Demand for assembly equipment, while exhibiting some signs of improvement, remains soft. During the quarter, inventory balances increased slightly. In response to concerns over the availability of raw materials, brought on by surging global demand, we have increased our stock of raw materials used in the manufacture of fasteners and are likely to further increase our supplies during the second quarter, unless market conditions improve. Nevertheless, our overall inventory levels are well below those of one year ago. The increase in the accounts receivable balance at the end of the first quarter of 2004, compared to the end of 2003 is due to higher sales during the current period and this increase was not unexpected. Trade payables are slightly higher than one year ago, primarily due to purchases associated with the new fastener segment business discussed above. Management believes that the company's current cash, cash equivalents, and operating cash flow will be sufficient to provide adequate working capital for the foreseeable future. The economic recovery has finally begun to manifest itself in our business. Certainly, conditions are not as robust as we would like, but what we have seen is a welcome change from the recent past. Our markets remain extremely competitive and industry capacity still exceeds demand, suggesting that margins will remain under pressure. As previously reported, price and availability of raw materials continues to be a concern. Global demand has caused material prices to increase substantially and has had an impact upon material availability. We have implemented temporary material surcharges in an effort to recover these higher costs. To date, this effort has had mixed results, as many customers have agreed to the surcharges; however, there are customers with whom we have longer term supply agreements who have, so far, refused to accept these surcharges. Our ability to recover these higher costs without losing market share will have a significant impact on our success in the months ahead. We continue to seek out new, profitable business and to focus on reducing costs to remain competitive in our marketplace. The foregoing discussion is only intended to provide highlights of operations for the periods covered. Additional information is contained in our Form 10-Q, which has been filed with the SEC and is available to shareholders upon request from the Company, or via the internet through the SEC's EDGAR database. This discussion contains certain "forward-looking statements" which are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events to differ materially from those discussed herein. Factors which may cause such differences in events include, among other things, our ability to maintain our relationships with our significant customers; increased global competition; increases in the prices of, or limitations on the availability of, our primary raw materials; or a 9 downturn in the automotive industry, upon which we rely for sales revenue, and which is cyclical and dependent on, among other things, consumer spending, international economic conditions and regulations and policies regarding international trade. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. 10 CHICAGO RIVET & MACHINE CO. Item 4. Controls and Procedures. (a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act. (b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. 11 PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION Item 2.
