9 10 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS During the second quarter of fiscal 1996, XETA Corporation ("the Company"), focused on four major areas of emphasis: increasing sales of its PBX products, continued growth of its service customer base, completion of the roll-out of call accounting systems related to the mandated changes in the North American Numbering Plan ("NANP") and continued development of the Company's new PBX related product, XPANDER. These areas, as well as other factors affecting the Company's financial condition and results of operations, will be discussed in this report. The forward looking statements contained in this report are estimates by the Company's management of future performance and are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, some of which are discussed herein, which could cause actual results to differ materially from management's current expectations. The Company has enjoyed wide acceptance of its PBX product and service offering. During the second quarter, total PBX related revenues, both sales of new systems and service revenues, were $2,066,000, a 40% increase over PBX related revenues earned during the second quarter of fiscal 1995. For the first six months of fiscal 1996, PBX related revenues were $4,110,000 or 62% higher than the first half of fiscal 1995. Included in these PBX revenues are recurring revenues earned from PBX service contracts. During fiscal 1996 to date, these revenues have doubled when compared to fiscal 1995 levels. Management believes that through continued commitment to its PBX service offerings, its base of recurring revenues from PBX service contracts will continue to grow for the foreseeable future. During the second quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company completed the installation of the call accounting systems which had been ordered in response to the mandated changes in the NANP. These installations and their related revenues began in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994, peaked in the first quarter of fiscal 1995 and have been steadily declining. Beginning in the third quarter, revenues earned from sales of new call accounting systems will return to normal levels. Despite the expected decline in future sales of new call accounting systems, it is important to note that recurring revenues earned from service contracts on call accounting systems are expected to continue. These revenues were approximately $740,000 during the second quarter of fiscal 1996 representing an 18% increase over the same period in fiscal 1995. Most of the Company's call accounting customers purchase service contracts on their systems and the Company's success in getting these contracts renewed each year has historically been very high. The Company continues development and testing of its newest product, XPANDER. This product is designed to work with any brand of PBX to increase the number of available extensions without increasing the size of the PBX. The primary initial application of XPANDER will be to add a second telephone extension in hotel rooms to enable guests to make data and voice calls simultaneously. Currently, to provide this capability, hotels must significantly expand the size of their PBX systems resulting in significant up front costs and continuing maintenance costs. XPANDER will be a more cost effective way to meet this need. While the Company has yet to secure a field test for the system, development and debugging has continued as planned and in-house testing has yielded favorable results. Management believes that the market for XPANDER is continuing to form as guest demand for multiple phone line access in the rooms increases. Sales of XPANDER are expected to begin late in 10 11 the current fiscal year; however, such sales are not expected to begin to be significant until fiscal 1997. FINANCIAL CONDITION The Company's financial condition has continued to improve throughout the first six months of fiscal 1996. Working capital has increased 34% to $4,345,000 and shareholders' equity has increased 30% to $6,277,000 during the first half of fiscal 1996. In addition, as a result of the utilization of the Company's XETAPLAN program over the past 18 months by customers who were upgrading their call accounting systems, the Company currently has significant sales-type lease receivables which, over the next four years will generate additional cash reserves. This financial strength continues to play an important role in the Company's growth and ability to compete in its market. By having the necessary working capital to fund additional service and sales locations and to fully support those locations with inventory and administrative services, the Company has been able to provide a consistent level of performance throughout its nation-wide customer base. The Company's financial strength also enables it to continue to invest heavily in research and development activities. These projects, which include the XPANDER product, will form the basis for continued expansion of the Company in the future. Management anticipates that investment in engineering and research and development activities will continue at the current pace for the foreseeable future. In addition to the activities described above, the Company continues to actively evaluate various strategies for effective use of its cash reserves. These strategies include, but are not limited to, stock repurchases, synergistic acquisitions and continued expansion of the XETAPLAN program possibly to include PBX or XPANDER systems. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For the second quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company recorded net income of $396,000 compared to net income of $290,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 1995, representing a 36% increase. For the year to date periods, the Company has recorded net income of $838,000 compared to $828,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1995, a 1% increase. Specific operating items and their changes are discussed below. Net sales and service revenues increased 21% and 19% for the three and six month periods, respectively, ending April 30, 1996, compared to the same periods in fiscal 1995. For the second quarter, systems sales increased 12% over 1995 levels consisting of a 23% increase in sales of new PBX systems and a 4% decline in the sales of new call accounting systems. For the six month period ending April 30, systems sales increased 11% consisting of a 52% increase in sales of PBX systems and a 23% decrease in call accounting systems sales compared to the first six months of fiscal 1995. The trend in both PBX and call accounting sales was expected. As discussed above, the Company continues to enjoy success in marketing its PBX product line and these sales are expected to continue to grow as the Company gains market share and as the Company introduces its own PBX-related products, such as XPANDER. See discussion above regarding sales of call accounting systems and the changes in the NANP. 11 12 Revenues earned from installation and service activities increased 35% during the second quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 1995 and 31% for the six month comparative periods ending April 30, 1996. Approximately one-fourth of these increases is the result of the additional call accounting systems that have been added during the past year and that are now under service contract and generate recurring revenues. Most of the remainder of the increase in service revenues relates to PBX service activities such as contract revenues and time and material charges. Gross margins decreased from 38% to 36% in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 1995 and decreased from 43% to 37% for the six month period ending April 30, 1996, compared to the previous year. These decreases were expected and reflect the continuing change in mix of sales from higher margin call accounting sales to lower margin PBX sales. For this reason and due to the conclusion of the surge in call accounting sales related to the NANP changes, management has stated that fiscal 1995's operating result will be a challenge to equal in fiscal 1996 even though total revenues may increase slightly. These results will be dependent upon the continued acceptance of the Company's PBX product and service offerings and the timing of customer orders and related installations of new PBX systems. As discussed above, revenues from sales of XPANDER systems are not expected to make a significant contribution to fiscal 1996 results. Operating expenses increased 11% and 8% for the three and six month periods, respectively, ending April 30, 1996, compared to the same periods in 1995. These increases were related to increases in sales related costs such as the addition of new personnel and sales offices and to increased sales related compensation due to increased sales. Partially offsetting these increases are decreases in engineering related costs due to the fact that a greater portion of the expenses incurred during fiscal 1996 qualified for capitalization under the applicable accounting rules than in the same period of fiscal 1995. Interest and other income increased 57% during the second quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to 1995 and increased 67% for the six month period ending April 30, 1996, compared to the six months ending April 30, 1995. This increase is primarily related to increases in interest income earned from sales-type leases and cash investments. Many of the call accounting sales over the last 18 months were made under the Company's XETAPLAN program. As a result, the Company is recording interest income on these sales-type leases as amortization occurs. The Company recorded a provision for federal and state income taxes of $239,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 1996 and $500,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1996. These provisions for taxes represent an effective tax rate of approximately 37%. This compares with an effective tax rate of 42% during the second quarter of fiscal 1995 and 33% for the first six months of fiscal 1995. The decrease in the effective rate during the second quarter relates to a reduction in the estimated state tax provision for fiscal 1996. The increase in the year to date effective tax rate is due to the fact that fiscal 1995's first quarter taxes were reduced by $107,000 in tax benefits relating to reversing timing differences. Management expects the effective tax rate recorded so far in fiscal 1996 to be indicative of the rate required for the remainder of the year. 12 13 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings Phonometrics Phonometrics, Inc. continues to pursue its patent infringement litigation against telecommunications equipment manufacturers and hotel users of such equipment. In February, 1996, Phonometrics filed one lawsuit against twenty-nine hotel owners and management companies in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (Civil Action No. C-96-0707). This lawsuit is identical in nature to the Phonometrics litigation pending in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida; however, due to the timing of the filing of the California litigation, the time period during which Phonometrics may seek damages based on the alleged infringement is limited to February 1990 - October 1990. In light of the short period of time for which damages may be sought and the relatively deminimus settlement offer figures proposed by Phonometrics to numerous defendants named in the lawsuit (the offers of which the Company is aware have all been for less than $10,000), it is believed that Phonometrics' primary purpose in filing the California litigation is to finance the Florida litigation. During the Company's past quarter, four of the Company's customers that are named as defendants in the California litigation notified the Company that they would seek indemnity from the Company with regard to such litigation. As is the case in the Florida litigation, the Company is only one of several vendors of several parts of the hotels' telecommunications equipment that is implicated in the litigation. Consequently, the Company to date has not assumed the outright defense of its customers in any of the Phonometrics litigation. In March of this year, the Florida litigation pending against the hotel users of the allegedly infringing telephone equipment was stayed by the Florida Court, pending the outcome of the Florida cases filed against various manufacturers of the telephone equipment. Those cases have been referred to a special master by the Florida Court for determination on the merits of each case. (As was reported last quarter, one such case involving Northern Telecom was resolved in Northern Telecom's favor, although Phonometrics has filed a notice of intent to appeal the decision.) Recently, the defendants in the California litigation filed motions to seek a similar stay of the California litigation pending the outcome of the Florida litigation. A hearing on such motions is set for June 28, 1996. The Company, through its legal counsel, continues to monitor the developments in these cases, communicate with legal counsel for its customers involved in the lawsuits, and generally consider from time to time various alternatives available to it in responding to this matter. ABTS In early April, 1996, the Company was successful in moving the action brought against it by Associated Business Telephone Company ("ABTS") from Federal Court in New Jersey to the U.S. District Court of the Northern District of Oklahoma, which sits in Tulsa, Oklahoma. As a result, dates previously set by the New Jersey Federal Court (as reported in the Company's 10-QSB for its first quarter in fiscal 1996) are irrelevant. The Oklahoma Court has scheduled a status conference in this case for June 28, 1996. 13 14 Items 2 through 5 of Part II have been omitted because they are inapplicable or the response thereto is negative.
