6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

Environmental

As an ongoing facet of the Company’s business, it is required to maintain compliance with various environmental regulations. The cost of this compliance is included in the Company’s operating results as incurred. These ongoing costs include permitting fees and expenses and specialized effluent control systems as well as monitoring and site assessment costs required by various governmental agencies. In the opinion of management, the maintenance of this compliance will not have a significant effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

In August 1994, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) identified the Company as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) in the El Monte Operable Unit (“EMOU”) of the San Gabriel Valley Superfund Sites. In early 1995, the Company and the EPA executed an Administrative Consent Order which requires the Company and other PRP’s to perform a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study (“RI/FS”) for the EMOU. The RI/FS was completed in 1999 and the EPA issued an interim record of decision. In addition, the Company’s facility in Avon, Massachusetts is subject to Massachusetts “Chapter 21E”, the State’s hazardous site clean-up program. Uncertainty as to (a) the extent to which the Company caused, if at all, the conditions being investigated, (b) the extent of environmental contamination and risks, (c) the applicability of changing and complex environmental laws (d) the number and financial viability of other PRP’s, (e) the stage of the investigation and/or remediation, (f) the unpredictability of investigation and/or remediation costs (including as to when they will be incurred), (g) applicable clean-up standards, (h) the remediation (if any) that will ultimately be required, and (i) available technology make it difficult to assess the likelihood and scope of further investigation or remediation activities or to estimate the future costs of such activities if undertaken. In addition, liability under CERCLA is joint and several, and any potential inability of other PRP’s to pay their pro rata share of the environmental remediation costs may result in the Company being required to bear costs in excess of its pro rata share.

In fiscal 1997, the Company with the help of independent consultants, determined a cost estimate and accrued $10,000,000 for existing estimated environmental remediation and other related costs. The time frame over which the Company expects to incur such costs varies with each site, ranging up to 20 years. This estimate is based on progress made in determining the magnitude of such costs, experience gained from sites on which remediation is ongoing or has been completed, and the timing and extent of remedial actions required by the applicable governmental authorities.

As of December 29, 2001, the accrual for estimated environmental costs was $8,325,000. Actual expenditures for environmental remediation were $37,000 and $377,000 for the three and nine month periods ended December 29, 2001, respectively, and $476,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001. The Company believes its accrual is adequate, but as the scope of its obligations becomes more clearly defined, this accrual may be modified and related charges against earnings may be made.

Claims for recovery of costs already incurred and future costs have been asserted against various insurance companies. The Company has neither recorded any asset nor reduced any liability in anticipation of recovery with respect to such claims made.

Other

On March 3, 1998, Walter Neubauer, a former stockholder of the Company and a current stockholder of SDI, filed a lawsuit in California Superior Court (Case BC186937; Walter Neubauer vs. Andrew Goldfarb, et. al.) against the Company and certain other stockholders alleging (i) breach of fiduciary duty, (ii) fraud, (iii) negligent misrepresentation, (iv) negligence, (v) violations of corporations code and (vi) breach of contract. The allegations primarily relate to the Company’s exercise of an option to acquire Mr. Neubauer’s stock in August 1996. In September 1999, five of the six claims were dismissed upon a summary judgement motion made by the Company, including all of the claims against the Company. The remaining claim against Andrew Goldfarb was settled in December 2001.

On May 7, 1998, the Company filed a lawsuit against Mr. Neubauer in California Superior Court alleging (i) breach of contract, (ii) intentional interference with business relations and (iii) interference with prospective business advantage. All allegations relate to violations of the noncompetition agreement executed by Mr. Neubauer in August 1996. In October 2001, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Mr. Neubauer to resolve these claims as well as any residual claims against the Company from the litigation discussed above.

In addition to the above, the Company is involved in other claims and litigation arising in the normal course of business. Based on the advice of counsel and in the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a significant effect on the financial position or the results of operations of the Company.

7. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) Nos. 141 and 142, “Business Combinations” and “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” . SFAS No. 141 replaces APB 16 and eliminates pooling-of-interests accounting prospectively. It also provides guidance on purchase accounting related to the recognition of intangible assets and accounting for negative goodwill.

SFAS No. 142 changes the accounting for goodwill from an amortization method to an impairment-only approach. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill will be tested annually and adjusted whenever events or circumstances occur indicating that goodwill might be impaired. SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142 are effective for all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, amortization of goodwill recorded for business combinations consummated prior to July 1, 2001 will cease, and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001 that do not meet the criteria for recognitions under SFAS No. 141 will be reclassified to goodwill. Companies are required to adopt SFAS No. 142 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, but early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet determined the impact these standards will have on its financial statements.

In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which replaces SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.” SFAS No. 144 establishes one accounting model, based on framework established in SFAS No. 121, for the recognition, measurement and reporting of impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used and measurement of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. Adoption of SFAS No. 144 is required for the Company’s fiscal year beginning April 1, 2002 although early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this new standard will have on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended December 29, 2001 (“2002 Quarter”) to the Three Months Ended December 30, 2000 (“2001 Quarter”)

Net Sales

The Company’s net sales decreased by approximately 32% or $6.8 million to $14.4 million for the 2002 Quarter compared to sales of $21.2 million for the 2001 Quarter.

Sales to existing aerospace, industrial process control, and petrochemical customers decreased by approximately 8% in the 2002 Quarter compared to the 2001 Quarter. Based on current order volume, the Company expects continued weakness in the aerospace, industrial process control and petrochemical markets to continue over the next quarter.

On the automotive side, revenue from airbag and seat belt initiator products decreased due to both decreasing volumes and contractual price reductions on existing programs. The Company’s unit shipments to its largest customer, Special Devices, Inc. (“SDI”) decreased 31% for the 2002 Quarter compared to the 2001 Quarter. Overall, revenue from all automotive shipments decreased approximately 39% in the 2002 Quarter compared to the 2001 Quarter. The Company’s contract with SDI expired in January 2002 and is not expected to be renewed. The Company continues to service SDI based on existing purchase orders. However, the Company expects significant future decreases in unit shipments to SDI. The decrease in revenue from SDI will be partially offset by increases in unit shipments on new and existing programs to other automotive customers over the next several quarters. On the whole, the Company expects lower revenues from automotive products during fiscal 2003. The Company is aggressively pursuing additional opportunities in the automotive market.

The Company has continued to develop a significant market presence in the telecommunications markets through component products designed for optical networking infrastructure. Shipments of these products increased dramatically throughout Fiscal Year 2001; however, they have slowed significantly due to reduced spending by service providers on optical networking infrastructure systems. Sales of these products decreased 74% in the 2002 Quarter compared to the 2001 Quarter. Based on current order volume and industry reports, the Company expects continued weakness in the telecommunications markets over the next several quarters.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased by approximately 36% or $2.5 million, to $4.6 million for the 2002 Quarter compared to $7.1 million for the 2001 Quarter. Gross margin decreased to 31.6% for the 2002 Quarter from 33.7% for the 2001 Quarter.

The decrease in gross profit is attributable to the $6.8 million decrease in sales revenue in the 2002 Quarter compared to the 2001 Quarter and partially offset by lower variable manufacturing expenses. The decrease in gross margin was primarily attributable to the impact of fixed overhead costs leveraged on lower sales revenue.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (“S,G&A”) expenses decreased by approximately 44% to $1.2 million for the 2002 Quarter compared to $2.2 million for the 2001 Quarter. S,G&A expenses as a percent to sales decreased to 8.7% in the 2002 Quarter from 10.5% for the 2001 Quarter.

G&A expenses overall were lower in the 2002 Quarter as compared to the 2001 Quarter due to decreased compensation costs and reduced legal expenses resulting from the settlement of the Neubauer litigation. The decreased percentage of S,G&A expenses to sales reflects the above cited cost reductions exceeding the percentage decrease in sales.

Earnings from Operations

Operating earnings decreased by approximately 33% or $1.6 million to $3.3 million for the 2002 Quarter compared to $4.9 million for the 2001 Quarter. Operating margins decreased to 23.0% in the 2002 Quarter from 23.2% for the 2001 Quarter.

The decrease in operating earnings and margin was attributable to the same factors (as discussed above) that contributed to the decrease in gross profit and gross margin.

Other Expense, net

Other expense, net (which is predominantly net interest expense) was $2.4 million for both the 2002 and 2001 Quarters. The Company has $89.9 million of indebtedness as of December 29, 2001 compared to $94.8 million at December 30, 2000.

Net Earnings

Net earnings decreased by approximately $1.0 million to $0.5 million for the 2002 Quarter compared to $1.5 million in the 2001 Quarter.

The decrease in net earnings was primarily attributable to the decrease in earnings from operations in the 2002 Quarter.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended December 29, 2001 (“2002 Period”) to the Nine Months Ended December 30, 2001 (“2001 Period”)

Net Sales

The Company’s net sales decreased by approximately 14% or $8.4 million to $51.5 million for the 2002 Period compared to sales of $59.9 million for the 2001 Period.

Sales to existing aerospace, industrial process control and petrochemical customers increased by approximately 6% in the 2002 Period compared to the 2001 Period. Based on current order volume, the Company expects continued weakness in the aerospace, industrial process control and petrochemical markets over the next quarter.

On the automotive side, revenue from airbag and seat belt initiator products decreased due to both decreasing volumes and contractual price reductions on existing programs. The Company’s unit shipments to its largest customer, Special Devices, Inc. (“SDI”) decreased 20% for the 2002 Period compared to the 2001 Period. Overall, revenue from all automotive shipments decreased approximately 26% in the 2002 Period compared to the 2001 Period. The Company’s contract with SDI expired in January 2002 and is not expected to be renewed. The Company continues to service SDI based on existing purchase orders. However, the Company expects significant future decreases in unit shipments to SDI. The decrease in revenue from SDI will be partially offset by increases in unit shipments on new and existing programs to other automotive customers over the next several quarters. On the whole, the Company expects lower revenues from automotive products during fiscal 2003. The Company is aggressively pursuing additional opportunities in the automotive market.

The Company has continued to develop a significant market presence in the telecommunications markets through component products designed for optical networking infrastructure. Shipments of these products increased dramatically throughout Fiscal Year 2001; however, they have slowed significantly due to reduced spending by service providers on optical networking infrastructure systems. Sales of these products decreased 46% in the 2002 Period compared to the 2001 Period. Based on current order volume and industry reports, the Company expects continued weakness in the telecommunications markets over the next several quarters.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased by approximately 18% or $3.7 million, to $16.8 million for the 2002 Period compared to $20.5 million for the 2001 Period. Gross margin decreased to 32.6% for the 2002 Period from 34.3% for the 2001 Period.

The decrease in gross profit is attributable to the decreased sales volume. The decrease in gross margin was primarily attributable to the impact of fixed overhead costs leveraged against lower revenues.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (“S,G&A”) expenses decreased by approximately 25% to $4.9 million for the 2002 Period compared to $6.5 million for the 2001 Period. S,G&A expenses as a percent to sales decreased to 9.5% in the 2002 Period from 10.9% for the 2001 Period.

G&A expenses overall were lower in the 2002 Period as compared to the 2001 Period due to decreased compensation costs and reduced legal expenses resulting from the settlement of the Neubauer litigation. The decreased percentage of S,G&A expenses to sales reflects the above cited cost reductions exceeding the percentage decrease in sales.

Earnings from Operations

Operating earnings decreased by approximately 15% or $2.1 million to $11.9 million for the 2002 Period compared to $14.0 million for the 2001 Period. Operating margins decreased to 23.1% in the 2002 Period from 23.4% for the 2001 Period.

The decrease in operating earnings and margin was attributable to the same factors (as discussed above) that contributed to the decrease in gross profit and gross margin.

Extraordinary Gain, net

During the 2001 Period, the Company purchased for retirement $10.2 million face value of it’s 10.75% Senior Subordinated Notes for $4.6 million in cash. The transaction resulted in an extraordinary gain on the early retirement of debt of $3.2 million, net of taxes of $2.1 million. The purchase of this indebtedness will result in an after-tax yield to maturity of 20.3% and reduces interest costs by $1.1 million annually.

Other Expense, net

Other expense, net (which is predominantly net interest expense) decreased by approximately 6% or $0.4 million to $7.2 million in the 2002 Period compared to $7.6 million in the 2001 Period. The $0.4 million decrease was attributable to lower interest expense realized from lower total debt balances in the 2002 Period compared to the 2001 Period. The Company has $89.9 million of indebtedness as of December 29, 2001 compared to $94.8 million at December 30, 2000.

Net Earnings

Net earnings decreased by approximately 60% or $4.1 million to $2.8 million for the 2002 Period compared to $7.0 million for the 2001 Period.

The substantial decrease in net earnings was due to the $3.2 million extraordinary gain on the retirement of debt in the 2001 Period and from the decrease in earnings from operations in the 2002 Period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.8 million for the 2002 Period compared to $2.4 million for the 2001 Period. The decrease of $0.6 million of cash was primarily attributable to the decrease in net earnings, (net of the extraordinary gain in 2001).

Net cash used in investing activities was $1.0 million for the 2002 Period compared to $1.9 million for the 2001 Period. The decrease in the 2002 Period is due to a substantial reduction in capital expenditures.

Net cash used in financing activities was $1.6 million for the 2002 Period compared to $6.9 million for the 2001 Period, due primarily to the purchase of the 10.75% Senior Subordinated Notes.

As of December 29, 2001, the Company’s outstanding long-term debt is $89.9 million. The Company has a Revolving Credit Facility up to $20.0 million, which is collateralized by accounts receivable and inventories. At December 29, 2001 there was $17.9 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility. To date, the Company has not used any amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility and is in compliance with its terms and conditions.

The Company expects to finalize and execute in the fourth quarter an $8.0 million credit facility to replace the Revolving Credit Facility which expires in May 2002. The new line of credit will be collateralized by accounts receivable and inventories and may be used for general and other corporate purposes.

The Company believes that cash flow from operations and the availability of borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility or the new credit facility will provide adequate funds for ongoing operations, planned capital expenditures and debt service during the term of such facility.

Capital expenditures for fiscal 2002 are expected to focus on vertical integration with investments in equipment to expand manufacturing capacity in machining, glass production, sealing and plating, as well as automation equipment to lower production costs on the high volume production lines. Expected capital expenditures for fiscal 2002 are approximately $1.5 million and will be financed through working capital and/or purchase money indebtedness.

This filing contains statements that are “forward looking statements”, and includes, among other things, discussions of the Company’s business strategy and expectations concerning market position, future operations, margins, profitability, liquidity and capital resources. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. All phases of the operations of the Company are subject to a number of uncertainties, risks and other influences, including general economic conditions, regulatory changes and competition, many of which are outside the control of the Company, any one of which, or a combination of which, could materially affect the results of the Company’s operations and whether the forward looking statements made by the Company ultimately prove to be accurate.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates on the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility. At December 29, 2001, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the line of credit and, therefore, changes in interest rates would have no impact on the Company’s results of operations.
