("Allen", the "Company" or the "Registrant") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on February 3, 1969. Its predecessor was Allen Electric and Equipment Company, incorporated under the laws of the State of Michigan on January 13, 1928, which merged into the Delaware corporation on May 1, 1969. On February 28, 1997, the name of the Company was changed from The Allen Group Inc. to Allen Telecom Inc., upon the merger of its wholly owned subsidiary, Allen Telecom Group, Inc. with and into the Company. In 1996, the Company decided to exit the centralized automotive emissions testing business operated by its MARTA Technologies, Inc. subsidiary. The Company determined that the disposal of this business will allow it to fully devote management and financial resources to its expanding wireless communications product lines. Additional information regarding this development is incorporated herein by reference to Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, "Acquisitions and Dispositions," on pages 23 to 24, and to the "Discontinued Operations" section of "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," on pages 30 to 31, of Allen's 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 13 to this Report. There have been no other significant changes in the business, kinds of products produced or services rendered or in the markets or methods of distribution since the beginning of the last fiscal year. Allen is a leading equipment supplier of system expansion, site management products and mobile and base station antennas to the worldwide wireless communications market. The principal product lines are systems products, including repeaters, microcells, wireless PBX systems, paging repeaters, test and measurement analyzers and power amplifiers; site management and other non-antenna products, including filters, tower mounted amplifiers, combiners, duplexers, isolators and cable; and mobile and base station antennas. The demand for equipment is primarily a function of the development of wireless communications systems throughout the world, and Allen's ability to develop new products and technologies related to system coverage and capacity and components for other manufacturers' wireless communications systems. In this regard, in 1995, the Company introduced its SmartcellTM microcell, which has the ability to enhance geographic coverage as well as serve as a platform for wireless PBX. The Company also has developed several new wireless test and measurement products which have applications in cellular, PCS, trunking and paging systems. These products perform analysis for AMPS, TACS and paging systems standards, as well as digital TDMA, GSM and CDMA standards. The Company's wireless telecommunications manufacturing business in the U.S. is conducted principally through its divisions and wholly owned subsidiaries, which includes its Grayson Electronics Company, Antenna Specialists, Decibel Products, Systems and Site Products divisions, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Signal Science, Incorporated. In Europe, the Company's business is conducted through its 80% owned subsidiary, FOR.E.M. S.p.A., in Italy; FOREM's 62% owned subsidiary, Mikom G.m.b.H., in Germany; and the Company's 64.3% owned subsidiary, Tekmar Sistemi S.r.l., in Italy. -3- 4 Allen's Comsearch division is a leading supplier of frequency planning and coordinating services as well as system design and field engineering services and software products for the wireless and personal communications systems ("PCS") markets. Comsearch is involved with carriers and original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") in the process of designing the cell layout of a system. Comsearch's engineering expertise in spectrum sharing, microwave inter- connectivity, microwave migration and cell system design has enabled it to obtain orders from most major PCS carriers. Comsearch's spectrum sharing software, comprised of IQ.Clear and IQ. Link, currently is licensed in most major domestic PCS markets, and its IQ.Clear software for microwave interconnection is operational in several European PCS systems. International sales of the Company have increased substantially and are now more than 56% of total sales. The Company's export sales from the U.S. are primarily to major wireless telephony companies and are typically payable in U.S. dollars. European sales are primarily to major European OEMs and cellular or PCS operators in local currencies. The Company currently has sales/engineering offices in Canada, China, Brazil, Australia, Singapore, France, United Kingdom, Austria, Peru, India, Mexico and Hong Kong. The Company sees no significantly greater risk as a result of the greater proportion of international business than that of its domestic operations. Allen's wireless telephony products generally are manufactured or assembled by the Company. With respect to its European operations, a substantial portion of product manufacturing labor is outsourced to third parties. Comsearch's frequency planning and coordination services are provided principally at its central headquarters facility and at customer locations. Products are sold directly through commissioned sales employees or through distributors and sales representatives to OEMs, common carriers and other large uses of telecommunications products. WORKING CAPITAL - --------------- The Company's products consist of standard manufactured products for which inventory levels are generally based on product demand. As previously indicated, the increase in international export sales generally resulted in extended collection periods as such receivables make up a greater proportion of trade receivables. This factor, in conjunction with the general increase in sales, has increased the working capital needs of the Company's business. During 1996, the Company entered into an agreement and made an equity investment in a wireless telecommunications company in the amount of $5,000,000. This company has agreed to purchase from the Company $50,000,000 of equipment and services through December 31, 2001. In connection with this purchase commitment, the Company will make available up to $50,000,000 of product financing in the form of secured, interest bearing loans to be used solely to finance the purchase price of the equipment and services supplied by the Company. The Company believes that existing credit lines and continued cash flow from operations provide sufficient flexibility for this arrangement. COMPETITION - ----------- In each of Allen's product lines, competition is vigorous. The Company believes that it has established a major market position in the United States for mobile cellular telephone antennas, where competition is distributed among many manufacturers. In its other product lines, the Company believes that it is among the major manufacturers and that competition is widely distributed. Allen's principal methods of competition include price, service, warranty, market availability, product research and development, innovation and performance. In certain of its product lines, the Company has augmented its own resources through licensing agreements with companies possessing complementary resources and technologies. -4- 5 MAJOR CUSTOMERS - --------------- There is no single customer the loss of which would have a material adverse effect on the Company. However, three major telecommunications equipment companies accounted for approximately 21% (none individually greater than 10%) of sales in 1996. The balance of the Company's sales were widely distributed among many customers. BACKLOG - ------- The approximate backlog of orders as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 are as follows (amounts in thousands): 1996 1995 ------- ------- Wireless Communications $108,741 $ 85,339 Discontinued Centralized Automotive Emissions Inspections - 144,138 ------- ------- 108,741 229,477 Backlog not expected to be filled within one year: Wireless Communications ( 1,935) - Discontinued Centralized Automotive Emissions Inspections ( -) (121,274) ------- ------- Backlog expected to be filled in 1997 fiscal year $106,806 $108,203 ======= ======= The backlog for wireless communications products represents orders for systems and site management products and base station and mobile antennas. The increase in the wireless communications backlog for 1996 reflects a general increase in the level of business for existing products. During 1996, the Company entered into an agreement and made an equity investment in a wireless telecommunications Company in the amount of $5,000,000. This Company has agreed to purchase from the Company $50,000,000 of equipment and services through December 31, 2001. Pending the receipt of orders, this purchase commitment has been excluded from the above order backlog amounts. As noted previously, the Company has decided to exit the centralized automotive emissions inspections business. The Company has entered into a contract to transfer its Cincinnati, Ohio program (which currently is not operating pending the sale). The Jacksonville, Florida program is also subject to ongoing contract negotiations under which that program also may be sold at some future date. In the event the aforementioned agreement for sale is not consummated, the Company will continue to endeavor to sell MARTA's operating programs or operate them until the termination of the respective contracts, and will not bid upon or seek new emissions testing programs. Total backlog for this business (excluding the suspended Cincinnati, Ohio program under contract for sale) was approximately $22,400,000 at December 31, 1996, of which $12,660,000 is expected to be filled within one year. PRODUCTION, RAW MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES - -------------------------------------- In addition to manufacturing certain products, Allen also assembles at its facilities certain components manufactured for it by non-affiliated companies. The principal materials used in the production of Allen's products are electronic components, steel, aluminum and plastics. These materials are purchased regularly from several producers and have been generally available in sufficient quantities to meet Allen's requirements, although occasionally shortages have occurred. The Company believes that the supplies of materials through the end of 1997 will be adequate. -5- 6 PATENTS, LICENSES AND FRANCHISES - -------------------------------- The Company owns a number of patents, trademarks and copyrights and conducts certain operations under licenses granted by others. Although the Company does not believe that the expiration or loss of any one of these items would materially affect its business considered as a whole or the operations of any industry segment, it does consider certain of them to be important to the conduct of its business in certain product lines. Business franchises and concessions are not of material importance to Allen's industry segments. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT - ------------------------ The Company is engaged in research and development activities (substantially all of which are Company-sponsored) as part of its ongoing business. The Company is continuing to emphasize the development of specialty products and accessories to serve the wireless communications markets. Currently, these development activities are not expected to require a material investment in assets. For additional information, see "Research and Development Costs" in Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 16 to 17 of Allen's 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 13 to this Report. ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS - ---------------------- The Company is subject to federal, state and local laws designed to protect the environment and believes that, as a general matter, its policies, practices and procedures are properly designed to prevent unreasonable risk of environmental damage and financial liability to the Company. Additional information regarding environmental issues is incorporated herein by reference to the last paragraph of Note 5, "Commitments and Contingencies," of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on page 20 of Allen's 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 13 to this Report. EMPLOYEES - --------- As of December 31, 1996, Allen had approximately 2,900 employees. SEASONAL TRENDS - --------------- Generally, the Company's sales are not subject to significant seasonal variations; however, its sales and earnings tend to be lower in the first fiscal quarter due to lower outdoor installations of its products in the northern climates. INDUSTRY SEGMENTS, CLASSES OF PRODUCTS, FOREIGN OPERATIONS AND EXPORT SALES - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Information relating to the Company's classes of similar products or services, foreign and domestic operations and export sales is incorporated herein by reference to "Geographic Data" in Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements on page 23, and the information presented in the charts and graphs on pages 28 to 31, of the Company's 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 13 to this Report. The Company now has sizeable manufacturing and sales operations in Italy and Germany. With the opportunities represented by the rapid deployment of wireless telephony systems throughout the world, the Company has seen extensive growth in international markets. The Company's export sales have increased from $62 million in 1994 to $98 million in 1995, and $87 million in 1996. This growth and the growth in non-European opportunities for our European produced product, has encouraged the Company to continue to expand the size and number of its international sales and service offices. The Company also has a manufacturing -6- 7 operation in Mexico (a "maquiladora") which principally supplies mobile antennas. In the opinion of management, any risks inherent in Allen's existing foreign operations and sales are not substantially different than the risks inherent in its domestic operations. -7- 8 ITEM 2 - PROPERTIES ------------------- At December 31, 1996, Allen's continuing operations were conducted in 36 facilities in 13 states and 14 foreign countries. Allen's wireless communications operations occupy approximately 951,000 square feet of space for manufacturing, assembly, warehousing, research and development, sales and administrative offices. Approximately 504,000 square feet are rented under operating leases. The Company's principal facilities are located in Ohio, Texas, Virginia, Italy, Germany and Mexico. Information concerning all of the Company's properties at December 31, 1996 is as follows (amounts in thousands): Square Footage ---------------------------------------------------- Domestic Foreign -------- ------- Owned Leased Owned Leased Total ----- ------ ----- ------ ----- Wireless Communications 269 448 178 56 951 Discontinued Centralized Auto- motive Emissions Inspections 74 126 - - 200 --- --- --- --- ----- 343 574 178 56 1,151 === === === === ===== Allen's machinery, plants, warehouses and offices are in good condition, reasonably suited and adequate for the purposes for which they are presently used and generally are fully utilized. Domestic leased facilities includes approximately 100,000 square feet relating to facilities under a capital lease arrangement for the discontinued centralized automotive emissions inspections business. In addition to the above, Allen owns two manufacturing facilities that had been utilized by previously discontinued operations. These facilities (totalling 116,000 square feet) currently are under short-term leases to third parties.
