Acquisitions On September 26, 1994, Lynch Telephone Corporation VII, a wholly owned subsidiary of Lynch, acquired all of the outstanding shares of Haviland Telephone Company, Inc. from InterDigital Communications Corporation. The total cost of this transaction was $13.4 million. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase, and, accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair market value. As a result of this transaction, the Company recorded $8.2 million in goodwill which is being amortized over 25 years. On September 19, 1994, Brown-Bridge Industries, Inc. an 80.1% owned subsidiary of Spinnaker Industries, Inc., (an 83% owned subsidiary of Lynch) acquired from Kimberly-Clark Corporation the net assets associated with its Brown-Bridge operation, a manufacturer of adhesive coated stock for labels and related applications. The cost of the transaction was $29.1 million, plus $6.9 million in current liabilities were assumed. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase, and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair market value. On March 1, 1994, Capital Communications Corporation, 49% owned by the Registrant, acquired certain assets associated with the operations of Station WOI-TV from Iowa State University. Station WOI is an ABC affiliate serving the Des Moines, Iowa market. The total cost of the transaction was $13.0 million. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase, and, accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair market value. Lynch is recording the results of Capital operations on an equity basis. The operating results of the acquired companies are included in the consolidated statements of operations from their respective acquisition dates. The following combined proforma information shows the results of the Registrant's operations presented as through the purchases of Haviland, Brown-Bridge and Station WOI-TV had been made at the beginning of 1994.

At March 31, 1995, inventories were valued by three methods: specific identification - 46%, last-in, first-out (LIFO) - 49%, and first-in, first-out (FIFO) - 5%. At December 31, 1994, the respective percentages were 68%, 23%, and 9%.

Indebtedness Long-term debt consists of (all interest rates are weighted averages, where applicable at March 31, 1995): In Thousands 3-31-95 12-31-94 Rural Electrification Administration and Rural Telephone Bank notes payable in equal quarterly installments through 2023 at fixed interest rates (3.3%) 24,131 24,283 Bank credit facilities utilized by certain telephone and telephone holding companies at both 10.4 fixed and 8.9% variable interest rates 24,053 24,158 Unsecured notes issued in connection with telephone company acquisitions 16,236 16,266 Bank debt associated with Brown-Bridge at variable rates 10.25%: Revolving line of credit 11,129 13,180 Term loan 9,000 9,000 Other 7,857 5,402 92,406 92,290 Current Maturities (16,489) (29,545) $75,917 $62,745 These credit facilities are secured by property, plant and equipment, inventory, receivables and common stock of certain subsidiaries and contain certain covenants restricting distributions to the Registrant. On April 14, 1995, the Registrant renegotiated and extended an $11.5 million bank credit facility which was utilized in 1989 to acquire a telephone company. The original facility expired on April 15, 1995. As a result of the extension, the facility is due in due in annual amounts of $800,000 beginning in 1996 with the remainder due on December 31, 2000. The Registrant has fixed the interest rate at 9.91%, the original facility was at a fixed rate of 11.67%. Accordingly, at March 31, 1995, this debt has been classified as long-term in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company also maintains short-term lines of credit with banks which aggregate $32.6 million, of which $21.4 was available at March 31, 1995. These lines are secured by operating assets of the related subsidiaries. The line of credit agreements expire in 1995 and 1996, are renewable annually, and are at interest rates of prime to prime plus 1%. The weighted average interest rate at March 31,1995 of outstanding borrowings under the lines was 9.1%. The Company had outstanding under these lines of credit standby letters of credit totaling approximately $6.0 million, securing various insurance obligations and customer advances. Several of the credit agreements contain covenants restricting distributions. In July 1986, the Registrant issued $23 million principal amount of 8% Convertible Subordinated Debentures. The Debentures were redeemable at the option of the Registrant, subject to certain restrictions, in whole or in part, at 108.0% of principal amount initially, declining annually to 100% on or after July 15, 1996. Through September 21, 1994, the Registrant had either purchased on the open market or redeemed $11,165,000 of the original issuance. At that date, in accordance with the terms of the debenture indenture, the Registrant called for redemption all of the remaining debentures outstanding, at 101.6% of their face amount plus accrued interest. The redemption was completed on October 24, 1994, and $10,195,000 of the debentures were redeemed and $1,640,000 were converted into 52,881 shares of the Registrant's Common Stock at $31 per share. F. Income Taxes The income tax provision includes federal, as well as state and local taxes. The tax provisions for the three months ending March 31, 1995 and 1994 represent effective tax rates of 41.5% and 34.9%, respectively. The rates differ from the federal statutory rate principally due to the effect of state income taxes, amortization of goodwill, no provision required on the Registrant's gain in 1994 from the sale of certain securities and a valuation reserve provided on the benefit associated with the Registrant's equity in losses of Capital Communications Corporation. G. Capital Stock In 1987 and 1992, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to a total of 300 thousand shares of Common Stock of the Registrant. These shares will be retained as treasury stock for future use as required. Through March 31, 1995, the Registrant had purchased 230,861 shares of Common Stock to date at an average price of $13.15. H. Earnings Per Share Earnings per common and common equivalent share amounts are based on the average number of common shares outstanding during each period, assuming the exercise of all stock options having an exercise price less than the average market price of the common stock using the treasury stock method. Fully diluted earnings per share reflect the effect, where dilutive, of converting the outstanding convertible debentures and the exercise of all stock options having an exercise price less than the closing market price at the end of the period of the Common Stock of the Registrant using the treasury stock method. Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Sales and Revenues Revenues for the first quarter of 1995 increased by $33.7 million, or 94%, from the first quarter in the prior year predominantly due to: $23.9 million in revenues from the Brown-Bridge operation, which was acquired on September 19, 1994; $4.3 million in incremental revenues from Lynch Machinery due to production activity associated with the manufacture of several extra-large glass press machines (Note: In December 1994, Lynch Machinery adopted the percentage of completion for its long term contracts which it had previously accounted for on a completed contract basis 1994's first quarter has been restated to reflect this change); and $3.8 million in incremental revenues from Morgan due to increased industry shipments of manufactured housing and recreational vehicle and increased markets share by Morgan. On a prospective basis, the inclusion of the Brown-Bridge operation and the backlog at Lynch Machinery (see below) is expected to result in increased reported revenues by the Registrant in the second and third quarters of 1995 versus the respective prior year periods. Operating Profit Operating profit for the first quarter of 1995 increased by $2.3 million, 132% from the first quarter in the prior year predominantly due to: $1.2 million contribution from Brown-Bridge; and $1.4 million in incremental operating profit from Lynch Machinery. On a prospective basis, the inclusion of Brown-Bridge and the backlog at Lynch Machinery (see below) is expected to result in increased reported operating profit by the Registrant in the second and third quarters of 1995 versus the respective prior year periods. Other Income (Expense), Net Investment income in the first quarter of 1995 was $307,000 higher than the first quarter of the previous year due to increased net market securities gains which more than offset lower investments in securities generating current investment income. Interest expense in the first quarter of 1995 was $838,000 higher than the first quarter of the previous year due to $850,000 of interest expense associated with the acquisitions of Brown-Bridge and Haviland Telephone Company. Offsetting this increase was a $275,000 decrease in interest expense associated with the redemption and conversion on October 24, 1994 of $11.8 million of the Company's 8% Convertible Subordinated Debentures. The remaining change was due to higher borrowing levels at slightly higher rates. Tax Provision The income tax provision includes federal, as well as state and local taxes. The tax provisions for the three months ending March 31, 1995 and 1994, represent effective tax rates of 41.5% and 34.9%, respectively. The rates differ from the federal statutory rate principally due to the affect of state income taxes, amortization of goodwill, no provision required on the Registrant's gain in 1994 from the sale of certain securities, and a valuation reserve provided on the benefit associated on the Registrant's equity in losses in Capital Communications Corporation. Net Income (Loss) Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1995 was $1.1 million, or $0.80 per share, in comparison to net income for the three months ended March 31, 1994 of $641,000, or $0.49 per share. The predominant factors that affected the comparability were: the acquisition of Brown-Bridge; increased production activity at Lynch Machinery; and higher investment income in 1995. A $150,000 after-tax gain was recorded in 1994 on the sale of affiliated stock. Backlog/New Orders Total backlog of manufactured products at March 31, 1995 was $38.2 million (25.1% relates to Lynch Machinery), which represents a slight decrease from the backlog of $38.8 million at December 31, 1994. During the quarter, M-tron Industries backlog increased by $3.0 million due to increased market demand and new product introductions which offset the production activity that reduced Lynch Machinery's backlog. Liquidity/Capital Resources At March 31, 1995, the Registrant had $30.0 million in cash and short-term investments, which was $1.5 million lower than the $31.5 million reported at December 31, 1994. Working capital at March 31, 1995 was $36.7 million as compared to $22.7 million at December 31, 1994. The predominant reason for the increase in working capital was the reclassification from short-term to long-term of an $11.5 million bank credit facility, previously due on April 15, 1995, which was extended on April 14, 1995. The Registrant and consolidated subsidiaries had $21.4 million of unused short-term and long-term credit facilities at March 31, 1995, $8.5 million of which relates to the Registrant. Total debt of the Registrant decreased from $98.2 million at December 31, 1994 to $97.8 million at March 31, 1995. PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
