First quarter of fiscal 2000 and 1999
The Company acquired a controlling interest in Universal Glasteel
Equipment ("UGE") in December 1998, Chemineer de Mexico in June 1999 and GMM
Pfaudler Limited ("GMM") in July 1999 ("Acquired Businesses"). The Company owned
minor portions of UGE and GMM in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 and their
results were recorded on the equity method. The Acquired Businesses are
consolidated in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The Acquired Businesses are
all in the Company's Process Systems segment.
Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2000 were $93.5 million
compared to $98.3 million in the prior year, a decrease of $4.8 million or 4.9%
over the same period of the prior year. The decrease in pro forma sales,
assuming the Acquired Businesses were acquired at the beginning of fiscal 1999,
was $9.4 million or 9.2%.

The Process Systems segment had sales of $75.9 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to $81.3 million in fiscal 1999. On a pro forma
basis, the Process Systems segment sales decreased by $10.0 million, an 11.6%
decrease. This decrease was primarily driven by weak market demand in the
specialty chemical market. Capital spending in this market was low as operating
rates and profitability levels have been weak. Incoming orders in this segment
improved in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 to $87 million. This follows three
successive quarters of orders in the $75 to $80 million range. The improved
orders are attributable to continued strength in the pharmacuetical market and
some improvement in the wastewater treatment and specialty chemical markets.
Backlog in this segment increased to $82 million at the end of the first quarter
of fiscal 2000 from $71 million at August 31, 1999.
The Energy Systems segment had sales of $17.6 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2000 compared to $16.9 million in fiscal 1999, an increase of
4.1%. This increase reflects some improvement resulting from the increase in
crude oil prices throughout most of calendar year 1999. This increase in oil
prices has spurred an increase in exploration and production activities over the
last half of calendar year 1999, although this activity is still well below what
is was in early calendar year 1998. Incoming orders in this segment improved to
$20 million in the first fiscal quarter of fiscal 2000, following four
successive quarters of orders in the $15 to $18 million range. Backlog increased
to $6 million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2000 from $3 million at
August 31, 1999.
The gross margin percentage decreased from 34.1% to 33.6%. This
decrease is due to the lower sales volumes in the Process Systems segment and a
shift in mix to slightly lower margin products within the Energy Systems
segment.
Operating expenses decreased by $1.5 million and from 22.7% to 22.3% as
a percentage of sales. These decreases are due to the savings from reduced
employment levels and severance actions taken in the Process Systems segment in
fiscal 1999 as well as cost savings from the Fairfield, CA, plant closure and
administrative consolidation in the Energy Systems segment.
As a result of the cost saving actions, IBIT before amortization and
other as a percentage of sales in the Process Systems segment declined only
slightly from 13.6% in fiscal 1999 to 13.3 % in fiscal 2000 on a sales decline
of 6.7%, or $5.4 million. In the Energy Systems segment IBIT before amortization
and other increased from 13.4% in the prior year to 15.9% in fiscal 2000.
Amortization expense increased in fiscal 2000 from $1.9 million to $2.0
million. This increase is from the amortization of intangible assets recorded in
the acquisition of the Acquired Businesses.
In fiscal 2000 other expense is from ongoing costs to close and
transfer the operations of the Fairfield, CA, manufacturing plant. In fiscal
1999 the other income is equity income from UGE and GMM which were acquired and
are now consolidated.
Interest expense decreased from $3.5 million in the first quarter of
fiscal 1999 to $3.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. This was due to
lower average debt levels.
The effective tax rate is 36.0% in fiscal 2000 compared to 34.0% in
fiscal 1999. The increase is from a higher proportion of taxable income in
higher tax rate countries and some tax carryforward benefits now being fully
utilized outside the U.S.
The decreases in net income and diluted net income per share are
primarily driven by the margin on the lower sales levels and a higher tax cost,
offset by some cost savings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash uses in the first three months of fiscal 2000 were $5.5 million in
semi-annual interest payments due on the Company's Senior Notes and Convertible
Subordinated Notes (included in accrued expenses), $1.9 million to purchase
Company stock and Convertible Subordinated Notes under the fiscal 2000 share
buyback program and $1.8 million for capital expenditures. Cash generated from
operations, exclusive of accrued interest payments, and net borrowings under the
Company's revolving credit loan funded these cash uses.
Cash uses in the first three months of fiscal 1999 were $6.4 million
for a loan to UPE, the Company's partner in the UGE joint venture (included in
other operating activities), $5.5 million in semi-annual interest payments due
on the Company's Senior Notes and Convertible Subordinated Notes (included in
accrued expenses), $3.4 million to purchase Company stock under the Company's
1998 stock buy back program and $3.2 million for capital expenditures. Cash
generated from operations, exclusive of the UPE loan and accrued interest
payments, and net debt borrowings of $13.1 million funded these cash uses.
The Company expects operating cash flow to be adequate for the
remainder of fiscal year 2000 operating needs, scheduled debt service and
shareholder dividend requirements. The major cash requirement for the remainder
of fiscal 2000 is planned capital expenditures of approximately $18.0 million.
Capital expenditures are related to additional production capacity, cost
reductions and replacement items.
In addition, the Company started a twelve month program in October 1999
to purchase up to 3% or about 350,000 shares or share equivalents in Convertible
Subordinated Notes. As of November 30, 1999, the Company has purchased 56,600
shares for $.9 million and $1.15 million face value of Convertible Subordinated
Notes (42,200 equivalent shares) for $1.0 million.
MARKET RISK
In its normal operations the Company has market risk exposure to
foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. There has been no
significant change in the Company's exposure to these risks, which has been
previously disclosed.
YEAR 2000
The Company successfully implemented its plan to address the Year 2000
issue, as previously disclosed. The costs for resolving Year 2000 issues were
approximately $1.6 million for fiscal 1998, and $1.8 million for fiscal 1999.
Most of these costs were to replace existing software and hardware systems.
Costs incurred in fiscal 2000 have been minimal. As of the date of this report
the Company has tested all of its critical systems and suppliers and has not had
any problems at any of its units.
