These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in Zygo Corporation's June 30, 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K405 including items incorporated by reference therein. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1: PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2001, the consolidated statements of earnings for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 are unaudited but, in our opinion, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods. The consolidated statements include the accounts of Zygo Corporation and all consolidated subsidiaries, including a consolidated joint venture, which we entered into in October 1999. The minority interest represents the 40% of the joint venture not owned by us. The consolidated financial statements included here for the period ended March 31, 2000 have been restated to reflect the May 2000 acquisition of Firefly Technologies, Inc. which was accounted for as a pooling of interests. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. NOTE 2: RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statements of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. In addition, SFAS No. 133 permits hedge accounting when certain conditions are met. SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137 and No. 138, is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. This statement did not have a significant impact on us, as the Company does not significantly utilize derivatives or hedges. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, which summarizes views of the SEC staff in applying accounting principles generally accepted in the United States to revenue recognition in financial statements. Subsequently, the SEC issued SAB No. 101A and SAB No. 101B, "Amendment: Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," that delays the implementation date of certain provisions of SAB No. 101. Management currently is evaluating the impact, if any, that this SAB will have on our results of operations or financial position and will be adopted in the fourth quarter of this fiscal year. In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25." The Interpretation answers questions dealing with APB No. 25 implementation practice issues. Interpretation No. 44 is being applied prospectively to new awards, modifications to outstanding awards, and changes in employee status on or after July 1, 2000, except as follows: (a) requirements related to the definition of an employee apply to new awards granted after December 15, 1998; (b) modifications that directly or indirectly reduce the exercise price of an award apply to modifications made after December 15, 1998; and (c) modifications to add a reload feature to an award apply to modifications made after January 12, 2000. Financial statements for periods prior to July 1, 2000 will not be affected. The adoption of Interpretation No. 44 did not have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position. In September 2000, the FASB's Emerging Issues Task Force released its discussion on EITF Issue No. 00-10, "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs." EITF No. 00-10 sets forth guidance on how a seller of goods should classify in the income statement (a) amounts billed to a customer for shipping and handling and (b) costs incurred for shipping and handling. The consensus guidance must be adopted by the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2001. Management is in the process of evaluating this standard, but believes that any effect will generally be limited to the form and content of our financial statement disclosures. NOTE 3: SEGMENT INFORMATION Under the criteria established by SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," we operate in three principal business segments globally. These segments are based on the markets served by us: Semiconductor; Industrial; and Telecommunications. The segment data is presented below in a manner consistent with our management's internal measurement of the business. Three Months Ended March 31, 2001 (Thousands of dollars)
Semiconductor Industrial Telecommunications Total ------------- ---------- ------------------ ----- Sales $25,014 $8,807 $4,896 $38,717 Gross Profit 12,302 4,321 2,866 19,489 Gross Profit as a % Sales 49% 49% 59% 50% Nine Months Ended March 31, 2001 (Thousands of dollars) Semiconductor Industrial Telecommunications Total ------------- ---------- ------------------ ----- Sales $60,817 $24,974 $9,589 $95,380 Gross Profit 27,396 10,792 4,881 43,069 Gross Profit as a % Sales 45% 43% 51% 45%
Export sales by geographic area were as follows: Three Months Nine Months Ended March 31, Ended March 31, --------------------- -------------------- 2001 2000 2001 2000 ------- -------- -------- ------- (Thousands of dollars) Far East: Japan $15,032 $ 4,550 $31,819 $12,562 Pac Rim 1,392 5,210 5,721 10,519 ------- ------- ------- ------- Total Far East 16,424 9,760 37,540 23,081 Europe and other 3,029 2,487 8,333 7,402 ------- ------- ------- ------- Total $19,453 $12,247 $45,873 $30,483 ======= ======= ======= ======= NOTE 4: COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Comprehensive income totaled $3,207,000 and $5,712,000 in the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2001, respectively, compared to comprehensive income of $1,526,000 and $1,074,000 in the comparable prior year periods. Comprehensive income is defined as net income plus non-stockholder direct adjustments to stockholders' equity which consist of foreign currency translation adjustments and adjustments for the net unrealized gains (losses) related to our marketable securities. NOTE 5: SUBSEQUENT EVENT On April 11, 2001, we purchased shares of our common stock from two of our executive officers and directors, pursuant to stock purchase agreements, all at a price per share of $20.81 (being the then closing price of the common stock in the public markets). We purchased a total of 239,605 shares from these two officers and directors. The funding for the purchase came from cash balances. The purpose of the purchases was to allow these two officers and directors to satisfy their tax obligations arising from our acquisition of Firefly Technologies, Inc., in which they were principal stockholders, and to satisfy and extinguish the margin loan they incurred to pay additional taxes, which arose from our acquisition of Firefly and which were due prior to the date we made the loans. The common stock we purchased is being held as treasury stock. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The third quarter 2001 earnings release issued on April 19, 2001 by Zygo Corporation included comparable financial information for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2000 which inadvertently did not include the nonrecurring charges recorded during those fiscal 2000 periods. The nonrecurring acquisition related charges for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2000 were $741,000 and $3,081,000, respectively. These nonrecurring non-cash compensation costs related to stock options held by shareholders of Firefly Technologies, Inc., which was merged with Zygo Corporation in a pooling-of-interest transaction in May 2000. The Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 was correct as filed since the restatement related to the poolings-of-interest transaction occurred in a subsequent period. The nonrecurring charges were properly reported in Zygo's Annual Report on Form 10-K405 for year ended June 30, 2000. No changes are being made to the 2001 financial information. These nonrecurring charges have been included in the fiscal 2000 results used for comparison and discussed in this section. Results of Operations Net sales of $38,717,000 for the three months and $95,380,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2001, increased by $16,309,000, or 73% and $32,007,000, or 51%, respectively, from the net sales in the comparable prior year periods. Fiscal 2001 net sales in the semiconductor segment for the third quarter were $25,014,000 or 64%; net sales in the industrial segment were $8,807,000 or 23%; and net sales in the telecommunications segment were $4,896,000 or 13%. The increase in net sales primarily resulted from an increase in volume. Gross profit for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2001, amounted to $19,489,000 and $43,069,000, respectively, an increase of $10,497,000 and $16,634,000 from the comparable prior year periods. The increases in gross profit dollars were primarily due to the increase in sales volume. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2001, amounted to 50% and 45%, an increase of ten and three percentage points from gross profit as a percentage of net sales of 40% and 42%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2000. Selling, general and administrative expenses of $9,720,000 and $21,365,000, respectively, in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2001, increased by $5,711,000, or 142%, and $8,005,000, or 60%, respectively, from the same periods the year earlier, primarily as a result of an increased sales infrastructure, higher compensation and incentive compensation due to increased sales and earnings, and higher audit and legal costs. In addition, prior year general and administrative expenses were reduced by a $1.0 million legal settlement in the third quarter. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2001 were 25% and 22%, respectively, as compared to 18% and 21%, respectively, from the same prior year periods. Research, development and engineering expenses ("R&D") amounted to $4,528,000, or 12% of net sales and $11,999,000, or 13% of net sales, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2001. In the comparable three and nine months in the prior year, R&D expenses totaled $2,637,000, or 12%, and $7,058,000, or 11% of net sales, respectively. The investment in R&D was primarily due to increased expenditures related to original equipment manufacturer opportunities in the semiconductor market and also to the development of prototypes for major users in the optical module market. We did not record any nonrecurring charges in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2001. Nonrecurring acquisition related charges of $741,000 and $3,081,000 in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2000 were recorded as a result of the acquisition of Firefly Technologies, Inc. The nonrecurring charges were for non-cash compensation charges resulting from the difference in the Firefly stock option exercise price and the deemed fair market value on the date of grant for financial statement purposes. Our operating profit in the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $5,042,000, as compared to $1,193,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2000. Excluding the nonrecurring charges for the three months ended March 31, 2000, the operating profit was $1,934,000. Our operating profit in the nine months ended March 31, 2001 was $9,107,000, as compared to $1,718,000 in the comparable prior year period. Excluding the nonrecurring charges for the nine months ended March 31, 2000, the operating profit was $4,799,000. We recorded net income of $3,207,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to $792,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2000. The net earnings on a diluted per share basis was $.20 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 compared with $.06 in the comparable prior year period. Excluding the nonrecurring charges for the three months ended March 31, 2000, our net income was $1,533,000 or $.11 per share. We recorded net income of $5,929,000, or $.38 per share, for the nine months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to $415,000, or $.03 per share, in the comparable prior year period. Excluding the nonrecurring charges for the nine months ended March 31, 2000, our net income was $3,496,000 or $.26 per share. The fully diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2001 were 15,975,000 and 15,436,000, respectively, as compared to 13,792,000 and 13,318,000 in the respective prior year periods. The increases in the number of shares outstanding were due, in part, to the 2,924,500 shares issued in March 2001 in the follow-on offering. Financial Condition In March 2001, we sold 2,924,500 shares of our common stock in a secondary public offering, at a price of $19.00 per share. The net proceeds to the company after deducting the underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses totaled approximately $51.8 million. At March 31, 2001, working capital was $111,897,000, an increase of $55,347,000 from the amount at June 30, 2000. At March 31, 2001, we had cash and cash equivalents of $58,210,000 and marketable securities of $7,884,000 for a total of $66,094,000, an increase of $42,228,000 from June 30, 2000. The increase was primarily due to the proceeds from the secondary offering offset in part by the increase in receivables and inventories. Accounts receivable increased by $6,484,000 and inventories increased by $12,181,000. Accounts payable increased by $3,391,000 and accrued liabilities increased by $1,361,000. On December 1, 2000, we borrowed $5,000,000 to finance the acquisition of an 87,000 square foot facility in Westboro, Massachusetts. The financing currently consists of a bridge loan, which is expected to be converted to a long-term note. As of March 31, 2001, there were no borrowings outstanding under our $3,000,000 bank line of credit. Our backlog at March 31, 2001 totaled $70,353,000, a record for us and an increase of $4,431,000, or 7%, from December 31, 2000 and an increase of $33,976,000, or 93%, from the backlog at March 31, 2000 of $36,377,000. Orders for the quarter totaled $43,148,000 and consisted of $22,213,000, or 52%, in the semiconductor segment, $13,522,000, or 31%, in the industrial segment, and $7,413,000, or 17%, in the telecommunications segment. As discussed in Note 5 Subsequent Events, on April 11, 2001, we purchased 239,605 shares of common stock from two officers and directors at a price of $20.81 per share (being the then closing price) for a total of $4,986,000. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We develop products in the United States and market our products predominantly in North America, the Far East and Europe. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Because most of our revenues are currently denominated in U.S. dollars, a strengthening of the dollar could make our products less competitive in foreign markets. Our interest income and interest expense on our variable rate investments and debt are sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates, particularly since the majority of our investments and variable rate borrowings are relatively short-term instruments. Due to the short-term nature of our investments and variable rate borrowings, we do not believe that a material risk exposure exists. Forward Looking Statements This report contains forward looking statements, including, without limitation, statements which may concern the future of the industry, product development, business strategy, continued acceptance and growth of our products and dependence on significant customers. These statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations. These uncertainties include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, competitive conditions in markets served by us, most notably high technology markets such as semiconductor and telecommunications, and economic and political developments in countries where we conduct business. SIGNATURE Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
