SMTEK INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Six Months Ended December 31, 2002 and 2001

 

NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

SMTEK International, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is an electronics manufacturing services (“EMS”) provider to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) primarily in the industrial and instrumentation, medical, telecommunications, security, financial services automation and aerospace and defense industries.  We provide integrated solutions to OEMs across the entire product life cycle, from design to manufacturing to end-of-life services, for the worldwide low-to-medium volume, high complexity segment of the EMS industry.

 

We have seven wholly owned subsidiaries:  SMTEK, Inc. (dba SMTEK Moorpark), located in Moorpark, California; Technetics, Inc. (dba SMTEK San Diego), located in Poway, California (see discussion in the next paragraph); Jolt Technology, Inc. (aka SMTEK Fort Lauderdale), located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida; SMTEK Europe Limited, located in Craigavon, Northern Ireland; SMTEK New England, located in Marlborough, Massachusetts; SMTEK Santa Clara, located in Santa Clara, California; and SMTEK International Thailand Limited, located in Ayutthya, Thailand.

 

On November 19, 2002, we announced that we are consolidating our Poway facility into our other California operations in Moorpark and Santa Clara.  This transition is expected to be completed by the quarter ending March 2003.

 

We have experienced and may continue to experience an adverse effect on our operating results and in our financial condition, especially if current economic conditions continue for an extended period of time, despite our cost reduction measures and efficiency improvements at our operating facilities.  We are focused on the consolidation and streamlining of operations so as to reduce our excess capacity to better match market conditions.  Recent actions taken and strategies being pursued are as follows:

 

                       Transitioning the San Diego facility and evaluating further opportunities of consolidation, transition or sale of other facilities.

 

                       Continuing focus on cost reductions related to pertinent production levels and reductions in administrative costs.

 

                       Focusing our marketing efforts in the solicitation of customers in nonecomically affected industries.

 

We remain dependent on our lines of credit for operations and growth.  Our domestic line of credit agreement is set to mature in September 2003.  We can provide no assurance that the agreement will be renewed or that any renewal would occur on commercially reasonable terms.  We may have to explore alternative financing if the bank does not renew our line of credit.

 

We may require additional financing to satisfy our debt obligations.  However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing when needed, or on acceptable terms.  Any additional debt or equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our stockholders, restrictive covenants or high interest costs.  The failure to raise needed funds on sufficiently favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

 

Although management believes our cash resources, cash from operations and available borrowing capacity on our working capital lines of credit are

 

6



 

sufficient to fund operations, if we cannot refinance the domestic line of credit upon its maturity or find alternative financing/funding of this obligation, there is no assurance that we will continue as a going concern.

 

All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.  In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented.

 

We utilize a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to June 30, which for fiscal year 2002 fell on June 28, 2002.  In the accompanying  condensed consolidated financial statements, the 2002 fiscal year end is shown as June 30 and the interim period end for both years is shown as December 31 for clarity of presentation.  The actual interim periods ended on December 27, 2002 and December 28, 2001.

 

Certain notes and other information are condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  Therefore, these condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with our 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 26, 2002.

 

NOTE 2 – RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The balance sheet at December 31, 2002 and the results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2002 included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A have been restated to reflect the transaction described below.  The impact of the restatement was as follows:

On December 17, 2002, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a former customer.  In full and final settlement of all claims by the Company against its former customer, the former customer paid the Company $25,000 in cash and issued the Company 175,000 shares of restricted common stock.  The Company’s initial estimate of fair value for such stock was zero due to the restricted nature of the shares. However, upon consultation with a third-party appraisal firm, the Company has revised its estimate of the fair value of the shares to $336,000 as of the date of settlement.  This bad debt recovery has been reflected as a reduction of Administrative and Selling expense in the accompanying financial statements.  The investment has been included in other noncurrent assets.  Once the restriction on the shares has been removed, or the shares have been registered under the Securities Exchange Act, their carrying value will be “marked to market” on a quarterly basis.

 

NOTE 3 – CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

 

We adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” as of July 1, 2002.  SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment, at least annually, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142.  SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”  In accordance with SFAS No. 142, during the December 2002 quarter we completed our initial assessment of impairment and determined that our goodwill was fully impaired and have recognized an impairment loss of $420,000, net of taxes, in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as a change in accounting principle, effective July 1, 2002.  The effect of the change in accounting principle to the quarter ended September 30, 2002 is as follows (dollars in thousands except per share amounts):

NOTE 4 – ACQUISITION OF THE ASSETS OF CENTURY ELECTRONICS MANUFACTURING, INC.

 

On October 24, 2001, we completed a transaction to purchase certain assets, but not assume any liabilities, of Century Electronics Manufacturing, Inc. (“Century”), an EMS company that filed for bankruptcy.  As part of this transaction, we also purchased substantially all of the common stock of Century’s subsidiary in Thailand.  The aggregate purchase price of this transaction was approximately $3.2 million in cash and was funded by our existing bank lines of credit.

 

Specifically, we purchased from Century certain equipment and machinery for approximately $1.4 million and inventory for approximately $900,000.  We have and will continue to utilize some of the purchased assets at our other locations.  We negotiated new facility leases in Marlborough, Massachusetts and Santa Clara, California and began operations in Marlborough and Santa Clara in connection with the purchase of these assets.

 

As part of the Century agreement we purchased the common stock of the Century subsidiary in Thailand (“Century Thailand”) for approximately $900,000.  The acquisition of the Thailand subsidiary provides us with a low cost manufacturing facility in Southeast Asia.  The acquisition of Century Thailand was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the statements of condensed consolidated operations include the results of the Thailand subsidiary from the date of acquisition.  The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at fair value as determined by us based on information currently available.  A summary of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in the acquisition is as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 5 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in our earnings (losses).

 

Common stock equivalents used in the determination of diluted earnings per share include the effect, when such effect is dilutive, of our outstanding employee stock options and the 8-1/2% Convertible Subordinated Debentures (which are convertible into 7,435 shares of common stock at $212.50 per share of common stock).  The following is a summary of the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share (dollars in thousands, except per share data):

Because we had a net loss for the three and six months ended December 31, 2002, there were no common stock equivalents which had a dilutive effect on earnings per share.  However, if we had reported net income rather than a loss for the three and six months ended December 31, 2002, the additional

diluted shares outstanding would have been 3,704 and 3,002 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2002, respectively.  Further, options to purchase approximately 657,200 of common stock at prices ranging from $1.05 to $10.00 which were outstanding at December 31, 2002, would not have been included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2002, because the exercise prices of these options were greater than the average market price of the common stock.  If we had reported net income rather than a loss for the three and six months ended December 31, 2001, the additional diluted shares outstanding would have been 87,213 and 132,497 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2001, respectively.  Options to purchase approximately 157,800 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $5.80 to $10.00 were outstanding at December 31, 2001, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2001, because the exercise prices of these options were greater than the average market price of the common stock.

 

Convertible subordinated debentures aggregating $1,580,000, due in 2008 and convertible at a price of $212.50 per share at any time prior to maturity, were outstanding during the three and six months ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect would be antidilutive.

 

NOTE 6 – REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

All of our subsidiaries recognize revenues and cost of sales upon shipment of products.  We ship products FOB shipping point and accordingly, title and risk of ownership pass to the customer upon shipment.

 

Prior to June 30, 2002, the Moorpark facility historically generated a significant portion of its revenue through long-term contracts with suppliers of electronic components and products.  Consequently, this operating unit historically used the percentage of completion method to recognize revenues and cost of sales.  Percentage of completion was determined on the basis of costs incurred to total estimated costs.  Contract costs include direct material and direct labor costs and those indirect costs related to the assembly process, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs.  Selling and administrative costs were charged to expense as incurred.  In the period in which it was determined that a loss would result from the performance of a contract, the entire amount of the estimated loss was charged to cost of goods sold.  Other changes in contract price and estimates of costs and profits at completion were recognized prospectively.  The asset “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts” represented revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed.

 

During fiscal 2002, our Moorpark facility entered into sales contracts consistent with our other locations, and as such, recognized revenue on these new arrangements upon shipment of products rather than on a percentage of completion method.  As a result, during most of fiscal 2002, the Moorpark facility was recognizing revenue upon shipment of product as well as under the percentage of completion method.  Since June 30, 2002, no sales contracts have been accounted for using the percentage of completion method of accounting.

NOTE 9 – CREDIT AGREEMENTS

 

At December 31, 2002, borrowings under our working capital facility for our domestic operating units amounted to $5.2 million.  This credit facility is collateralized by accounts receivable, inventory and equipment for our domestic operating units and matures September 25, 2003.  At December 31, 2002, the weighted average interest rate on the line of credit was 4.91%.  The line of credit agreement contains certain financial covenants, with which we were not in compliance at December 31, 2002.  However, the terms of our line of credit have been amended as of February 5, 2003.  Under the new terms, our line of credit is at $8.5 million, bears interest at either the bank’s prime rate (4.25% at December 31, 2002) plus 1.00% or a Eurodollar-base rate (1.37% at December 31, 2002) plus 3.75%, and the covenants have been amended.  We are currently and expect to be in compliance with the amended bank covenants.  Our available borrowing capacity as of December 31, 2002, after giving effect to the amendment, was approximately $1.8 million.

 

In addition, during fiscal 2002, we borrowed $1.6 million on our equipment line of credit to finance our capital expenditures.  This advance has a maturity date of October 24, 2006.  At December 31, 2002, the balance outstanding was $945,000 and the weighted average interest rate was 4.87%.  Under the amended credit facility terms, interest is at either the bank’s prime rate plus 1.00% or at a Eurodollar-base rate plus 3.75%.  Additional advances under our equipment line of credit will not be available to us until a review by the bank at a future date.

 

We also have a credit facility agreement with Ulster Bank Markets for our Northern Ireland operating company.  This agreement consists of an accounts receivable revolver, with maximum borrowings equal to the lesser of

 

12



 

75% of eligible receivables or 2,500,000 British pounds sterling (approximately $4,025,000 at December 31, 2002), of which 500,000 British pounds sterling (approximately $805,000 at December 31, 2002) consists of an overdraft facility, and bears interest at the bank’s base rate (4.00% at December 31, 2002) plus 2.00%.  At December 31, 2002, borrowings outstanding under this credit facility amounted to approximately $2.9 million, of which the overdraft facility was fully utilized, and there was nominal available borrowing capacity.  The credit facility agreement matures on November 30, 2003.

 

We also have a mortgage note secured by real property at Northern Ireland with an outstanding balance of $732,000 at December 31, 2002.  At December 31, 2002, we were in arrears and we are currently seeking to negotiate a payment plan.

NOTE 11 – FOREIGN CURRENCY FORWARD CONTRACTS

 

It is our policy not to enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.  We may, from time to time, enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts in an effort to protect us from adverse currency rate fluctuations on foreign currency commitments entered into in the ordinary course of business.  These commitments are generally for terms of less than one year.  The foreign currency forward exchange contracts are executed with banks believed to be creditworthy and are denominated in currencies of major industrial countries.  In accordance with SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” all derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value and are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet.  The accounting treatment of changes in fair value is dependent upon whether or not a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge and, if so, the type of hedge.  Changes in fair value

 

13



 

are recognized in current results of operations for fair value hedges and in other comprehensive income for cash flow hedges.  Derivative financial instruments not qualifying for hedge accounting treatment under SFAS No. 133 are recognized as assets or liabilities with gains or losses recognized in current results of operations.  At December 31, 2002, we did not have any open forward foreign currency contracts.

 

NOTE 12 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES – ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

 

Since the early 1990s, we have been, and continue to be, involved in certain remediation and investigative studies regarding soil and groundwater contamination at the site of a former printed circuit board manufacturing plant in Anaheim, California.  One of our former subsidiaries, Aeroscientific Corp., leased the Anaheim facility.  Under the terms of a cost sharing agreement entered into in July 1993, the remaining remediation costs are currently being shared on a 50-50 basis with the landlord.  There is no environmental insurance coverage for this remediation.  At December 31, 2002, we had a reserve of $416,000 for future remediation costs.  Management, based in part on consultations with outside environmental engineers and scientists, believes that this reserve is adequate to cover its share of future remediation costs at this site.  However, the future actual remediation costs could differ significantly from the estimates and our portion could exceed the amount of our reserve.  Our liability for remediation in excess of our reserve could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

UPDATE OF RISK FACTORS

 

The following updates the risk factors identified in our 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K which was filed with the SEC on September 26, 2002.

 

 

Our Debt Agreements Contain Certain Financial Covenants That Must Be Met.

 

As a result of consolidating our San Diego facility and the related costs incurred during the second quarter of 2003, we were in violation of certain covenants on our domestic line of credit agreement as of December 31, 2002.  In February 2003, the bank either removed or amended the related restricted covenants in an amendment to the credit agreement which enabled us to regain compliance with the terms of the credit agreement.  If we are unable to comply with the terms of our revised financial covenants, our lender may declare a default and immediately accelerate the due date of our outstanding loans.  If we are unable to repay our outstanding loans when asked to do so by the lender, the lender may exercise any one or more of the remedies available to it, including foreclosing on the assets pledged to support the facility, which includes virtually all of our assets.

 

Our domestic line of credit agreement is set to mature in September 2003.  Our borrowings on this line of credit at December 31, 2002 amounted to $5.2 million.  We can provide no assurance that the agreement will be renewed or that any renewal would occur on commercially reasonable terms.  We remain dependent on our line of credit for operations and growth and may have to explore alternative financing if the bank does not renew our line of credit or if amounts outstanding become immediately payable as a result of future covenant violations.

 

We also have a mortgage note secured by real property at Northern Ireland with an outstanding balance of $732,000 at December 31, 2002.  At December 31, 2002, we were in arrears and we are currently seeking to negotiate a payment plan.

 

We may require additional financing to satisfy our debt obligations.  However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing when needed, or with acceptable terms.  Any additional debt or equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our stockholders, restrictive covenants or high interest costs.  The failure to raise needed funds on sufficiently favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

 

Although management believes our cash resources, cash from operations and available borrowing capacity on our working capital lines of credit are sufficient to fund operations, if we cannot refinance the domestic line of credit upon its maturity or find alternative financing/funding of this obligation, there is no assurance that we will continue as a going concern.

 

Our Stock Price Has Been And Continues To Be Volatile.  Based Upon Any Number of Factors, We May Face Delisting Proceedings From Nasdaq.

 

The market price for our common stock continues to be volatile due to various factors.  These factors include, but are not limited to:

 

                   our public stock float being relatively small and thinly traded;

 

                   announcements by us or our competitors of new contracts or technological innovations;

 

                   fluctuations in our quarterly and annual operating results;

 

15



 

                   continued losses in each quarter;

 

                   acquisition-related announcements; and

 

                   general market conditions.

 

In addition, in recent years, our stock price has experienced significant price fluctuations for a variety of reasons, both internal to us and due to external conditions.

 

Under Nasdaq rules, if our stock trades below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive days, or if we are below $2.5 million in shareholders’ equity, we face delisting proceedings from Nasdaq.  Our common stock has traded below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive days starting in October 2002.  It has traded below $1.00 per share for much of the time since October 2002.  Further, we are now below $2.5 million in shareholders’ equity.  Therefore, we are not in compliance with two Nasdaq Small Cap Market criteria for continued listing.

 

In November 2002, we received a deficiency notice from Nasdaq relating to our stock trading below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive days.  The notice indicated that we have until May 2003 in which to show 10 consecutive trading days where the closing minimum bid is $1.00 per share or more.  We have not yet satisfied that requirement at this time.  However, even if we met this criterion at any time before May 2003, we are still likely to be delisted if we continue to fail to meet the $2.5 million minimum level of stockholders’ equity criterion that Nasdaq has established.  While we have not yet received any deficiency or other similar notice from Nasdaq with reference to our failure to meet the criterion of having $2.5 million in stockholders’ equity, we expect to receive a notice from Nasdaq in this regard after the filing of this Form 10-Q.

 

If we are delisted from the Nasdaq Small Cap Market, we may be transferred to the over-the-counter market on the NASD Electronic Bulletin Board or to the “pink sheets” maintained by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc.  There is also a risk that we will not continue to be listed at all.  Non-prominent trading markets are generally considered to be less efficient than markets such as Nasdaq or other national exchanges, and may cause us difficulty in obtaining future financing.  If our stock is no longer traded in a prominent trading market, or at all, it may be difficult for you to sell shares that you own, and the price of the stock may be negatively affected.

 

For companies whose securities are traded in the Over-The-Counter Market, it is more difficult: (i) to obtain accurate quotations and (ii) to obtain coverage for significant news events because major wire services, such as the Dow Jones News Service, generally do not publish press releases about such companies.

 

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

 

SMTEK International, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is an electronics manufacturing services (“EMS”) provider to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) primarily in the industrial and instrumentation, medical, telecommunications, security, financial services automation and aerospace and defense industries.  We provide integrated solutions to OEMs across the entire product life cycle, from design to manufacturing to end-of-life services, for the worldwide low-to-medium volume, high complexity segment of the EMS industry.

 

16



 

We have seven wholly owned subsidiaries:  SMTEK, Inc. (dba SMTEK Moorpark), located in Moorpark, California; Technetics, Inc. (dba SMTEK San Diego), located in Poway, California (see discussion in next paragraph); Jolt Technology, Inc. (aka SMTEK Fort Lauderdale), located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida; SMTEK Europe Limited, located in Craigavon, Northern Ireland; SMTEK New England, located in Marlborough, Massachusetts; SMTEK Santa Clara, located in Santa Clara, California; and SMTEK International Thailand Limited, located in Ayutthya, Thailand.

 

On November 19, 2002, we announced that we are consolidating our Poway facility into our other California operations in Moorpark and Santa Clara.  As a result, we will record during fiscal year 2003 a one-time charge of approximately $2.3 million to $3.0 million for severance and other costs related to facilities consolidation.  As of December 31, 2002, costs of approximately $2.2 million, related to the consolidation, have been recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.  This transition is expected to be completed by the quarter ending March 2003.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

In response to SEC Release No. 33-8040, “Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies,” we have identified our most critical accounting policies that require significant management judgment or involve complex estimates upon which our financial status depends.  The consolidated condensed financial statements and related notes within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contain information that is pertinent to our accounting policies and to management’s discussion and analysis and should also be read in conjunction with our 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on September 26, 2002.  The information that follows describes specific disclosures about our accounting policies regarding risks, estimates, subjective decisions, or assessments under which materially different results of operations and financial condition could have been reported had different assumptions been used or different conditions existed.

 

REVENUE AND COST RECOGNITION—We recognize revenues and cost of sales upon shipment of products.  Prior to June 30, 2002, our Moorpark subsidiary historically generated a significant portion of its revenue through long-term contracts with suppliers of electronic components and products.  Consequently, this operating unit historically used the percentage of completion method to recognize revenues and cost of sales.  Percentage of completion was determined on the basis of costs incurred to total estimated costs.  Contract costs include direct material and direct labor costs and those indirect costs related to the assembly process, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs.  Selling and administrative costs were charged to expense as incurred.  In the period in which it was determined that a loss would result from the performance of a contract, the entire amount of the estimated loss was charged to cost of goods sold.  Other changes in contract price and estimates of costs and profits at completion were recognized prospectively.  A change in our estimate of costs to complete may have resulted in lower earnings than currently recorded.  A portion of the asset “costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts” represented revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed.

 

During fiscal 2002, our Moorpark facility entered into sales contracts consistent with our other locations, and as such, recognized revenue on these new arrangements upon shipment of products rather than on a percentage of completion method.  As a result, during most of fiscal 2002, the Moorpark facility was recognizing revenue upon shipment of products as well as under the percentage of completion method.  Since June 30, 2002, no sales contracts have been accounted for using the percentage of completion method of accounting.

 

17



 

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE—We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based upon each customer’s payment history and current credit worthiness, as determined by credit information available at that time.  We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and we maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments.  If the condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

 

INVENTORIES—Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined principally by use of the first-in, first-out method.  We write down inventory for slow-moving and obsolete inventory based on assessments of future demands, market conditions and customers who may be experiencing financial difficulties.  If these factors are less favorable than those projected, additional inventory write downs may be required.

 

LONG-LIVED ASSETS—Property, equipment and improvements are stated at cost.  Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line method.  The principal estimated useful lives are:  buildings - 20 years; improvements - 5 to 10 years; and plant, office and other equipment - 3 to 7 years.  Property, equipment and improvements acquired by our Northern Ireland operating unit are recorded net of capital grants received from the Industrial Development Board for Northern Ireland.  Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of net assets of a purchased business, and has been amortized over 5 to 15 years through June 30, 2002.  Amortization of goodwill ceased on July 1, 2002 when we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142.  As a result of implementing SFAS No. 142, we determined that our goodwill was fully impaired and recognized an impairment loss of $420,000, net of taxes, in the condensed consolidated statement of operations, effective July 1, 2002.  The recoverability of long-lived assets is evaluated whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, and if future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of such assets are believed insufficient to recover the carrying value of the asset, the carrying value is written down to fair value in the period the impairment is identified.  Factors we consider important which could trigger an impairment review include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

                   the asset’s ability to continue to generate income;

 

                   loss of legal ownership or title to the asset;

 

                   significant changes in our strategic business objectives and utilization of the asset;

 

                   the impact of significant negative industry or economic trends; or

 

                   significant decrease in the market value of the asset.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

We utilize a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to June 30, which for fiscal year 2002 fell on June 28, 2002.  In the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the 2002 fiscal year end is shown as June 30 and the interim period end for both years is shown as December 31 for clarity of presentation. The actual interim periods ended on December 27, 2002 and December 28, 2001.

Consolidated revenues for the three and six months ended December 31, 2002 were $17.3 million and $38.0 million, respectively, compared to $19.6 million and $39.2 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2001, respectively.  The decrease in revenues was mainly due to the current downward economic and EMS market trends in the United States, slightly offset by an increase in revenues generated at our three new facilities. Starting in the third quarter of fiscal 2001, existing customers began to defer shipments, and some cancelled orders.

 

Consolidated gross profit for the three and six months ended December 31, 2002 was $798,000 (4.6% of sales) and $2.5 million (6.6% of sales), respectively, compared to $2.0 million (10.0% of sales) and $4.0 million (10.1% of sales) for the three and six months ended December 31, 2001, respectively.  Gross profit for the three and six months ended December 31, 2001 was positively impacted by the benefit received from inventory used during the period that was purchased at a discount from Century Electronics Manufacturing, Inc. (“Century”).  Excluding the positive impact from these reduced inventory costs, we estimate that the consolidated gross profit for the three and six months ended December 31, 2001 would have been approximately $1.2 million (6.0% of sales) and $3.2 million (8.1% of sales), respectively.  The decrease in gross profit and gross profit margin, excluding the purchase benefit, was due to an increase in fixed costs, primarily due to our new facilities and lower revenues, partially offset by a decrease in headcount and decrease in material costs.

 

Administrative and selling expenses were $4.0 million and $6.2 million for the three months and six months of December 31, 2002, respectively, compared to $2.4 million and $4.1 million for the three and six months of December 31, 2001, respectively.  The increase in administrative and selling expenses included the recognition, during the second quarter of 2003, of approximately $1.6 million in expenses related to the closing of our San Diego facility.  These costs are detailed as follows:  $1.0 million loss related to the lease of the building, $370,000 related to write-off of leasehold improvements and $200,000 related to severance and other related costs.  In the second quarter of 2003, we also recognized a $600,000 loss related to the lease at our former Thousand Oaks facility.  Also contributing to the increase in expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2002 were costs incurred by our three new facilities that were created upon the completion of the Century transaction in mid-October 2001.  Partially offsetting these costs, we recognized a recovery of bad debt of $336,000 due to the receipt of restricted equity securities from a prior customer in settlement of our outstanding claim.

 

Total non-operating expense was $318,000 and $624,000 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2002, respectively, compared to $265,000 and $509,000 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2001, respectively.  The primary reason for this increase was due to the increase in interest expense as a result of higher levels of debt outstanding during the three and six months ended December 31, 2002 as compared to the three and six months ended December 31, 2001.  The increased debt level is a result of the acquisition costs of the new facilities and from supporting their working capital requirements.

 

We had an income tax provision of $1,000 and $6,000 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2002, respectively, as compared to $12,000 and $27,000 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2001, respectively.  The income tax provision for the three and six months ended December 31, 2002 was lower than that for the three and six months ended December 31, 2001, due mainly to minimum state and federal taxes that were incurred.

 

Net loss from operations was $3.5 million and $4.3 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2002, or $1.55 and $1.90 loss per diluted

 

19



 

share, respectively, compared to net loss from operations of $762,000 and $735,000 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2001, or $0.33 or $0.32 loss per diluted share, due mainly to lower gross profit and higher administrative and selling expenses and non-operating expense.

 

CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

 

We adopted SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” as of July 1, 2001.  SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment, at least annually, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142.  SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”  In accordance with SFAS No. 142, during the December 2002 quarter we completed our initial assessment of impairment and determined that our goodwill was fully impaired and have recognized an impairment loss of $420,000, net of taxes, in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as a change in accounting principle, effective July 1, 2002.

 

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”  SFAS No. 144 replaces SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.”  The primary objectives of SFAS No. 144 were to develop one accounting model, based on the framework established in SFAS No. 121, for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale and to address other significant implementation issues.  While SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, it retains many of the fundamental provisions of SFAS No. 121.  SFAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001.  We have adopted SFAS No. 144 as of July 1, 2002.

 

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.”  SFAS No. 146 requires recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity when the liability is incurred, as opposed to when the entity commits to an exit plan under previous guidance.  SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.  We believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 146 will not have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Our primary sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents, which amounted to $628,000 at December 31, 2002, and amounts available under our bank lines of credit, which provided approximately $1.8 million of availability in excess of current borrowings at December 31, 2002, after giving effect to the amendment to the credit agreement discussed below.   During the six months ended December 31, 2002, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $188,000.  This decrease resulted from purchases of equipment of $907,000 and financing activities of $61,000, partially offset by cash provided by operations of $815,000.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities of $815,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2002 was attributable primarily to facility consolidation costs of $1.8 million, a decrease in inventories of $1.2 million and an

 

20



 

increase in accrued liabilities of $1.8 million offset by our net loss before depreciation and amortization of $3.8 million.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $907,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2002 compared to $2.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2001.  The cash used was for the purchase of capital expenditures mainly for production purposes.

 

Net cash used in financing activities was $61,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2002 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $1.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2001.  At December 31, 2002, we had approximately $1.8 million available to borrow under our bank lines of credit, after giving effect to the amendment to the credit agreement discussed below.

 

At December 31, 2002, borrowings under our working capital facility for our domestic operating units amounted to $5.2 million.  This credit facility is collateralized by accounts receivable, inventory and equipment for our domestic operating units and matures September 25, 2003.  At December 31, 2002, the weighted average interest rate on the line of credit was 4.91%.  The line of credit agreement contains certain financial covenants, with which we were not in compliance at December 31, 2002.  However, the terms of our line of credit have been amended as of February 5, 2003.  Under the new terms, our line of credit is at $8.5 million, bears interest at either the bank’s prime rate (4.25% at December 31, 2002) plus 1.00% or a Eurodollar-base rate (1.37% at December 31, 2002) plus 3.75%, and the covenants have been amended.  We are currently and expect to be in compliance with the amended bank covenants.  Our available borrowing capacity as of December 31, 2002, after giving effect to the amendment, was approximately $1.8 million.

 

In addition, during fiscal 2002 we borrowed $1.6 million on our equipment line of credit to finance our capital expenditures.  This advance has a maturity date of October 24, 2006.  At December 31, 2002, the balance outstanding was $945,000 and the weighted average interest rate was 4.87%.  Under the amended credit facility terms, interest is at either the bank’s prime rate plus 1.00% or at a Eurodollar-base rate plus 3.75%.  Additional advances under our equipment line of credit will not be available to us until a review by the bank at a future date.

 

We also have a credit facility agreement with Ulster Bank Markets for our Northern Ireland operating company.  This agreement consists of an accounts receivable revolver, with maximum borrowings equal to the lesser of 75% of eligible receivables or 2,500,000 British pounds sterling (approximately $4,025,000 at December 31, 2002), of which 500,000 British pounds sterling (approximately $805,000 at December 31, 2002) consists of an overdraft facility, and bears interest at the bank’s base rate (4.00% at December 31, 2002) plus 2.00%.  At December 31, 2002, borrowings outstanding under this credit facility amounted to approximately $2.9 million, of which the overdraft facility was fully utilized, and there was nominal available borrowing capacity.  The credit facility agreement matures on November 30, 2003.

 

We also have a mortgage note secured by real property at Northern Ireland with an outstanding balance of $732,000 at December 31, 2002.  At December 31, 2002, we were in arrears and we are currently seeking to negotiate a payment plan.

 

We anticipate that additional expenditures of as much as $125,000 may be made during the remainder of fiscal 2003, primarily to improve production efficiency at our subsidiaries.  A substantial portion of these capital expenditures is expected to be financed by our line of credit or other notes/leases payable.

 

21



 

At December 31, 2002, the ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 0.9 to 1.0 compared to 1.3 to 1.0 at June 30, 2002.  At December 31, 2002, we had $2.9 million of negative working capital compared to $5.9 million of working capital at June 30, 2002.  At December 31, 2002, we had long-term borrowings of $4.6 million compared to $10.1 million at June 30, 2002.  The decreases in the working capital and long-term debt is due to the reclassification of our domestic line of credit of $5.2 million from long-term debt to current liabilities as this matures in less than 12 months.  In addition, contributing to the decrease in working capital is an increase in lease reserves recognized in the second quarter of 2003.

 

As more fully described in Note 6 to the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our June 30, 2002 Form 10-K, at December 31, 2002, we have a federal tax assessment liability of approximately $1.1 million and a related accrued interest liability of approximately $1.3 million, which reflect the results of a settlement with the IRS Appeals Division in December 2001.  We are currently seeking an installment payment plan with the IRS.

 

We have experienced and may continue to experience an adverse effect on our operating results and our financial condition, especially if current economic conditions continue for an extended period of time, despite our cost reduction measures and efficiency improvements at our operating subsidiaries.  We are focused on the consolidation and streamlining of operations so as to reduce our excess capacity to better match market conditions.  Recent actions taken and strategies being pursued are as follows:

 

                       Transitioning the San Diego facility and evaluating further opportunities of consolidation, transition or sale of other facilities.

 

                       Continuing focus on cost reductions related to pertinent production levels and reductions in administrative costs.

 

                       Focusing our marketing efforts in the solicitation of customers in nonecomically affected industries.

 

For further discussion, see section entitled “Risk Factors That May Affect Your Decision to Invest in Us” in our 2002 Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on September 26, 2002 and to the discussion in this Form 10-Q under the heading “Update of Risk Factors.”

 

We remain dependent on our lines of credit for operations and growth.  Our domestic line of credit agreement is set to mature in September 2003.  We can provide no assurance that the agreement will be renewed or that any renewal would occur on commercially reasonable terms.  We may have to explore alternative financing if the bank does not renew our line of credit.

 

We may require additional financing to satisfy our debt obligations.  However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing when needed, or on acceptable terms.  Any additional debt or equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our stockholders, restrictive covenants or high interest costs.  The failure to raise needed funds on sufficiently favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

 

Although management believes our cash resources, cash from operations and available borrowing capacity on our working capital lines of credit are sufficient to fund operations, if we cannot refinance the domestic line of credit upon its maturity or find alternative financing/funding of this obligation, there is no assurance that we will continue as a going concern.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

 

Since the early 1990s, we have been, and continue to be, involved in certain remediation and investigative studies regarding soil and groundwater contamination at the site of a former printed circuit board manufacturing plant in Anaheim, California.  One of our former subsidiaries, Aeroscientific Corp., leased the Anaheim facility.  Under the terms of a cost sharing agreement entered into in July 1993, the remaining remediation costs are currently being shared on a 50-50 basis with the landlord.  There is no environmental insurance coverage for this remediation.  At December 31, 2002, we had a reserve of $416,000 for future remediation costs.  Management, based in part on consultations with outside environmental engineers and scientists, believes that this reserve is adequate to cover its share of future remediation costs at this site.  However, the future actual remediation costs could differ significantly from the estimates and our portion could exceed the amount of our reserve.  Our liability for remediation in excess of our reserve could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and short-term and long-term debt.  At December 31, 2002, the carrying amount of long-term debt (including the current portion thereof but excluding bank lines of credit) was $7.9 million and the fair value was $7.4 million.  The carrying values of our other financial instruments approximated their fair values.  The fair value of our financial instruments is estimated based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues.  A change in interest rates of one percent would result in an annual impact on interest expense of approximately $110,000.

 

It is our policy not to enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.  We may, from time to time, enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts in an effort to protect us from adverse currency rate fluctuations on foreign currency commitments entered into in the ordinary course of business.  These commitments are generally for terms of less than one year.  The foreign currency forward exchange contracts are executed with banks believed to be creditworthy and are denominated in currencies of major industrial countries.  In accordance with SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” all derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value and are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet.  The accounting treatment of changes in fair value is dependent upon whether or not a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge and, if so, the type of hedge.  Changes in fair value are recognized in current results of operations for fair value hedges and in other comprehensive income for cash flow hedges.  Derivative financial instruments not qualifying for hedge accounting treatment under SFAS No. 133 are recognized as assets or liabilities with gains or losses recognized in current results of operations.  At December 31, 2002, we did not have any open forward foreign currency contracts.

 

Our operations consist of investments in foreign operating units.  Our foreign subsidiaries represent approximately 18% of our revenues and 26% of our total assets.  As a result, our financial results have been and may continue to be affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Based on management’s evaluation (with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), as of the end of the period covered by this report, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”)) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

 

Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
