Basis of presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements, some of which are unaudited, have been condensed in certain respects and should, therefor, be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes related thereto contained in the Company's annual report to shareholders for the year ended August 31, 1995. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all adjustments (all of which are of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair presentation for the interim period. (See Note 3. below.) The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended May 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. 2. Inventories Inventories of continuing operations at May 31, 1996 and August 31, 1995 were as follows: May 31, 1996 August 31, 1995 (unaudited) ---------------- ------------------ Finished goods $ 587,000 $ 538,000 Work in process 94,000 71,000 Material and parts 1,470,000 1,076,000 ---------------- ------------------ $2,151,000 $1,685,000 ================ ================== 3. Discontinued Operations Subsequent to May 31, 1996, the Company completed the divestiture of its industrial process equipment subsidiary, Morehouse-COWLES, Inc. Since December 1, 1995, this business unit has been accounted for as a discontinued operation and results of its operations are segregated in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. As a consequence of holding Morehouse-COWLES for sale, the assets and liabilities of discontinued operations have been classified in the consolidated balance sheets as, "Net assets of discontinued operations." Discontinued operations have not been segregated in the consolidated statements of cash flow. (See Part II, Other Information.) MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Liquidity and Capital Resources Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine month period ended May 31, 1996 was $1,028,000. In the comparable prior year period, $364,000 was used by operating activities. The improved cash flows are primarily attributable to lower growth in inventories related to improved turnover, lower required tax payments and improved accounts receivable aging. The investment in property, plant and equipment relates primarily to the acquisition of molds for new products in the material handling components business. The Company expects to continue to invest heavily in tooling for new products. The Company has a revolving line of credit facility of $2,000,000 with an expiration date of January 1, 1997. The line of credit is secured by all the assets of the Company. The outstanding balance bears interest at one-quarter percentage point above the bank's prime rate. The amount outstanding under the Company's line of credit at May 31, 1996 was $582,000, a reduction of $356,000 from the August 31, 1995 amount due. Cash of $750,000 provided by the sale of Morehouse-COWLES, Inc. completed on June 17, 1996 was more than sufficient to pay off the line of credit. The Company believes that cash flows from operations and the available line of credit will be sufficient to fund working capital and planned capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months. 6 The Company has a strategy of growth by acquisition. Although there are no plans to make a specific acquisition for cash, in the event such a plan were adopted, an alternate source of funds to accomplish the acquisition would have to be developed. The Company has 10,000,000 shares of common stock authorized, of which 1,600,734 shares were outstanding at May 31, 1996 and 5,000,000 shares of "blank check" preferred stock authorized of which none is outstanding. The Company could issue additional shares of common or preferred stock to raise funds. Results of Operations - --------------------- The following table sets forth certain Statements of Income information as a percent of sales for the quarter and nine months ended May 31, 1996 and 1995. Three months ended Nine months ended ------------------------------------ ----------------------------------- May 31, 1996 May 31, 1995 May 31, 1996 May 31, 1995 ---------------- --------------- --------------- ---------------- Sales 100.0% 100.0% 100% 100.0% Gross profit 43.3% 47.0% 44.6% 45.5% S,G & A and other expense 32.1% 34.6% 34.1% 34.3% Income from continuing operations before provision for taxes 11.2% 12.4% 10.6% 11.1% Income from continuing operations 6.6% 6.7% 6.1% 5.9% ================ =============== =============== ================ Effective tax rate 41.2% 45.9% 42.4% 47.4% Income from continuing operations for the third quarter, ended May 31, 1996, increased $21,000 or 11%. Sales for the same period increased $368,000, or 13% compared to the same period in the prior year due primarily to continued expansion of the material handling components business. Consolidated gross profit increased $55,000, or 4% primarily related to sales growth. Gross profit as a percent of sales decreased from 47% to 43%, primarily due to increased material costs and increased facility costs resulting from the move by KVP Systems, Inc. to expanded facilities to accommodate anticipated future growth. Operating expenses increased $47,000, or 5% from the comparable prior year period, due primarily to continued expansion in the material handling components business, but decreased as a percent of sales from 35% to 32%. Effective tax rates in the most recent three month and nine month periods were somewhat lower than the comparable prior year periods performance due to the expiration at the end of fiscal 1995 of certain non-deductible payments. Income from continuing operations for the nine months ended May 31, 1996, increased $92,000 or 20%. Sales of the continuing businesses for the same period increased $1,256,000, or 16% from the comparable prior year period due primarily to increased sales in the material handling components business. Consolidated gross profits increased $496,000, or 14% associated with increased sales. Operating expenses increased $409,000, or 16% from the comparable period last year primarily due to expansion of sales and marketing activities in the material handling components business but as a percent of sales remained at 34%. The backlog of the Company's continuing businesses at May 31, 1996, believed to be firm, was $3,299,000, 8% higher than a year earlier. The amount of backlog cannot necessarily be used as an indicator of future sales volume. The Company and its customers are engaged in capital equipment businesses which may be cyclical. At any point in time, the Company's backlog includes large contracts, the timing of the delivery of which may be out of the Company's control. A significant portion of the Company's sales are for export. Political and external factors outside the Company's control can affect when and whether new orders are awarded to the Company. Due to these, and other factors, the Company's earnings and stock price may be subject to significant volatility, particularly on a quarter to quarter basis. 7 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.

Other Information - -------------------------- MERGER ANNOUNCEMENT On May 13, 1996, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement in principle to acquire LexaLite International Corporation, a privately held company located in Charlevoix, Michigan, in a stock transaction. The agreement in principle is subject to a number of conditions, including the execution of a definitive agreement and the approval of the shareholders of both companies. It is contemplated that the transaction will be treated as a tax-free reorganization in which 1.5 shares of SUMMA's Common Stock will be issued in exchange for each share of LexaLite's outstanding stock, with the shares of SUMMA's Common Stock to be registered for issuance under the Securities Act of 1933. LexaLite designs and manufactures injection-molded lighting components (refractors and reflectors) and other plastic products for OEM markets. For the year ended June 30, 1995, LexaLite earned $1,306,000 on sales of $32,797,000. For the nine months ended March 31, 1996, LexaLite's earnings were $1,132,000 on sales of $25,884,000. At May 10, 1996, 1,447,918 shares of LexaLite's Common Stock were outstanding and held of record by 44 shareholders, including an employee stock ownership trust which held approximately 35% of the outstanding shares on behalf of approximately 300 employees. DIVESTITURE OF MOREHOUSE-COWLES, INC. On June 17, 1996, the Company completed the sale of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Morehouse-COWLES, Inc., to a private investment group for $750,000 in cash and $1,771,000 in a subordinated promissory note and leased its Fullerton facility to Morehouse-COWLES, Inc. Details of the transaction were reported on form 8K, filed June 21, 1996. 8 The following proforma statement of operations present the results of continuing operations for the year ended August 31, 1995 and for the nine months ended May 31, 1996 assuming the disposition had been completed as of September 1, 1994. Adjustments have been made to recognize revenue on the lease of the Fullerton facility to Morehouse-COWLES, Inc., to increase costs for the Company's leased corporate offices, to adjust operating expenses, to decrease interest expense for loan balances offset or paid off with proceeds from the sale and to record interest income on the note received. Proforma data is provided for comparative purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of the results which actually would have been obtained if the disposition had been effected on the proforma dates, or of the results which may be obtained in the future.

That suit was resolved during the quarter. Additionally, those directors exercised options resulting in a net increase of 27,973 shares outstanding and net proceeds to the Company of $140,000. In the aggregate, these transactions resulted in a 3.8% increase in the number of common shares outstanding. RELOCATION OF CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS On July 2, 1996, the Company's headquarters were moved to 21250 Hawthorne Boulevard, Suite 500, Torrance, California 90503.
