NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the management of the Company, as defined below, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year.

The unaudited consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2014 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (“2014 Form 10-K”). The interim financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the 2014 Form 10-K.

The consolidated financial statements have been reported in U.S. dollars by translating asset and liability amounts of a foreign wholly-owned subsidiary at the closing exchange rate, equity amounts at historical rates and the results of operations and cash flow at the average of the prevailing exchange rates during the periods reported. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign currency translation gain or losses. These gains or losses are presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as “Other comprehensive income (loss) - foreign currency translation adjustments”.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein include the accounts of P&F Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries, (“P&F” or the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The Company

P&F is a Delaware corporation incorporated on April 19, 1963, that operates in two primary lines of business or segments: (i) tools and other products (“Tools”) and (ii) hardware and accessories (“Hardware”).

Tools

The Company conducts its Tools business through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Continental Tool Group, Inc. (“Continental”), which in turn operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Florida Pneumatic Manufacturing Corporation (“Florida Pneumatic”) and Hy-Tech Machine, Inc. (“Hy-Tech”). During the third quarter of 2014, the Company acquired Exhaust Technologies Inc. (“ETI”) and Universal Air Tool Company Limited (“UAT”). Both ETI and UAT are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Florida Pneumatic, and unless otherwise indicated, the operations and results of operations of Florida Pneumatic herein include ETI and UAT as of the respective dates such companies were acquired. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2014, the Company acquired substantially all the assets of Air Tool Service Company (“ATSCO”), which business operates through a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hy-Tech. Unless otherwise indicated, the results of operations of Hy-Tech herein include ATSCO from the date the business was acquired.

Florida Pneumatic is engaged in the importation and sale of pneumatic hand tools, primarily for the retail, industrial and automotive markets, and the importation and sale of compressor air filters. Florida Pneumatic also markets, through its Berkley Tool division (“Berkley”), a product line which includes pipe and bolt dies, pipe taps, wrenches, vises and stands, pipe and tubing cutting equipment, hydrostatic test pumps, and replacement electrical components for a widely-used brand of pipe cutting and threading machines.

Hy-Tech manufactures and distributes its own line of industrial pneumatic tools. Hy-Tech also produces and markets impact wrenches, grinders, drills, and motors. Further, it also manufactures tools to customer specifications. Its customers include refineries, chemical plants, power generation facilities, heavy construction enterprises, oil and gas and mining companies. In addition, Hy-Tech manufactures an extensive line of pneumatic tool replacement parts that are sold to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), and competitively. It also manufactures and distributes high pressure stoppers for hydrostatic testing fabricated pipe, gears, sprockets, splines and racks and produces a line of siphons.

Hardware

The Company conducts its Hardware business through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Countrywide Hardware, Inc. (“Countrywide”). Countrywide conducts its business operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Nationwide Industries, Inc. (“Nationwide”). Nationwide is an importer and manufacturer of door, window and fencing hardware and accessories, including rollers, hinges, window operators, sash locks, custom zinc castings and door closers. Nationwide’s products are sold through in-house sales personnel and manufacturers’ representatives to distributors, retailers and OEM customers. End users of Nationwide’s products include contractors, home builders, pool and patio distributors, OEM/private label customers and general consumers.

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses in those financial statements. Certain significant accounting policies that contain subjective management estimates and assumptions include those related to revenue recognition, inventory, goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, income taxes and deferred taxes. Descriptions of these policies are discussed in the Company’s 2014 Form 10-K. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions. Significant changes, if any, in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs,” which amends the current presentation of debt issuance costs in the financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts, instead of as an asset. The amendments are to be applied retrospectively and are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015, but early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 – ACQUISITIONS

Exhaust Technologies Inc.

On July 1, 2014, the Company acquired ETI, a developer and distributor of pneumatic tools, through a merger between a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of Florida Pneumatic and ETI. ETI markets its AIRCAT and NITROCAT brand pneumatic tools primarily to the automotive market. Currently, ETI’s business operates through Florida Pneumatic. The purchase price for this acquisition consisted of $10,377,000 in cash plus the assumption of certain payables.

Universal Air Tool Company Limited

On July 29, 2014, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of UAT, a distributor of pneumatic tools. UAT, which is located in High Wycombe, England, markets pneumatic tools to the automotive market sector primarily in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The purchase price for this acquisition consisted of approximately $1,947,000 in cash less a post-closing working capital adjustment. There is a potential contingent consideration payment due to the former shareholders of UAT of a maximum of £250,000.

Air Tool Service Company

On August 13, 2014, a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of Hy-Tech, acquired substantially all of the assets comprising the business of ATSCO, an Ohio based corporation engaged in the design, manufacture and distribution of pneumatic tools and parts. The purchase price consisted of approximately $7,659,000 in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities, and is subject to a post-closing working capital adjustment.

All three acquisitions are included as a part of the Company’s Tool Business Segment.

The following unaudited pro-forma combined financial information gives effect to the acquisition of ETI, UAT and ATSCO as if they were consummated January 1, 2014. This unaudited pro-forma financial information is presented for information purposes only, and is not intended to present actual results that would have been attained had the acquisitions been completed as of January 1, 2014 (the beginning of the earliest period presented) or to project potential operating results as of any future date or for any future periods.

	Three months ended March 31, 2014 (Unaudited)
Revenue	$	19,854,000
Net income	$	1,076,000
Earnings per share - basic	$	0.29
Earnings per share - diluted	$	0.28

ETI and UAT have been integrated into the business operations of Florida Pneumatic, and ATSCO has been integrated into the business operations of Hy-Tech since their respective dates of acquisition. As such, it is impracticable to determine the specific revenue and earnings directly attributable to any of the acquired businesses.

NOTE 3 — EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is based only on the average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the effect of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of options, unless the effect on earnings is antidilutive.

Diluted earnings per common share is computed using the treasury stock method. Under this method, the aggregate number of shares of common stock outstanding reflects the assumed use of proceeds from the hypothetical exercise of any outstanding options to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock (“Common Stock”). The average market value for the period is used as the assumed purchase price.

The following table sets forth the elements of basic and diluted earnings per common share:

	Three months ended
	March 31,
	2015		2014
Numerator:
Numerator for basic and diluted earnings per common share:

Denominator for diluted earnings per share weighted average common shares outstanding		3,746,000		3,878,000

(1) Dilutive securities consist of “in the money” stock options.

At March 31, 2015 and 2014 and during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, there were outstanding stock options whose exercise prices were higher than the average market values of the underlying Common Stock for the period. These options are anti-dilutive and are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. The weighted average of anti-dilutive stock options outstanding was as follows:

	Three months ended
	March 31,
	2015		2014
Weighted average anti-dilutive stock options outstanding		182,000		299,000

NOTE 4 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

During the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not grant any stock options or issue any Common Stock awards.

The following is a summary of the changes in outstanding options during the three-month period ended March 31, 2015:

	Option Shares			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value

The following is a summary of changes in non-vested options for the three months ended March 31, 2015:

	Option Shares		Weighted Average Grant- Date Fair Value
Nonvested options, January 1, 2015		61,006	$	6.14
Granted		—
Vested		—
Forfeited		—
Nonvested options, March 31, 2015		61,006	$	6.14

The number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan as of March 31, 2015 was 194,517. At March 31, 2015, there were 113,500 options outstanding issued under the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan and 385,000 options outstanding issued under the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan.

Restricted Stock

Pursuant to the 2012 Plan, the Company, in May 2014, granted 666 restricted shares of its common stock to each non-employee member of its Board of Directors, totaling 3,330 restricted shares. The Company determined that the fair value of these shares was $7.43, which was the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of the grant. These shares cannot be traded earlier than the first anniversary of the grant date. As such, the Company is ratably amortizing the total non-cash compensation expense of approximately $25,000 in its selling, general and administrative expenses through May 2015.

NOTE 8 - DEBT

SHORT-TERM LOANS

The Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement in October 2010, as amended (“Credit Agreement”), with Capital One Business Credit Corp., formerly known as Capital One Leverage Finance Corporation, as agent and lender (“COBC”). The Credit Agreement expires December 19, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”). The Credit Agreement provides for a Revolver Loan (“Revolver”), borrowings under which are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, mortgages on its real property located in Cranberry, PA, Jupiter, FL and Tampa, FL (“Real Property”), inventory and equipment. P&F and certain of its subsidiaries are borrowers under the Credit Agreement, and their obligations are cross-guaranteed by certain other subsidiaries. Revolver borrowings bear interest at either LIBOR (London InterBank Offered Rate) or the Base Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement (“Base Rate”), or a combination of the two, plus the Applicable Margin (the “Applicable Margin”), as defined in the Credit Agreement. The interest rate, either LIBOR or Base Rate, which is added to the Applicable Margin, is at the option of the Company, subject to limitations on the number of LIBOR borrowings.

Contemporaneously with the ATSCO acquisition in August 2014, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Restated Loan Agreement”) with COBC. The Restated Loan Agreement, among other things, amended the Credit Agreement by: (1) increasing the total amount of the credit facility from $29,423,000 to $33,657,000, (2) increasing the Revolver from $20,000,000 to $22,000,000, (3) creating a new $3,000,000 Term Loan, as defined in the Restated Loan Agreement (“Term Loan B”), and (4) re-designating as “Term Loan A”, the previously existing outstanding Term Loan, which relates primarily to the Company’s real property. In addition, the Restated Loan Agreement also reset certain financial covenants.

At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the balance of Revolver borrowings outstanding was $15,022,000 and $11,817,000, respectively. Applicable Margins added to Revolver borrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate were 2.25% and 1.25%, respectively, at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. These applicable margin rates were constant throughout the three-month period ended March 31, 2015.

The Company is required to provide COBC with, among other things, monthly financial statements, monthly borrowing base certificates and certificates of compliance with various financial covenants. The Company believes it is in compliance with all covenants under the Restated Loan Agreement. As part of the Restated Loan Agreement, if an event of default occurs, the interest rate would increase by 2% per annum during the period of default, in addition to other remedies provided to COBC.

LONG-TERM

The Restated Loan Agreement also provides for Term Loan A, which is secured by mortgages on the Real Property, accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. Term Loan A borrowings can be at either LIBOR, or at the Base Rate, as defined in the Restated Loan Agreement, or a combination of the two plus the Applicable Margins, which for LIBOR borrowings at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was 3.0%. The Applicable Margin for borrowings at the Base Rate was 2.0% at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Additionally, the Restated Loan Agreement provides for a Term Loan B, pursuant to which the Company borrowed the maximum principal amount of $3,000,000 as part of the ATSCO acquisition. This Term Loan B is to be repaid in 36 consecutive monthly payments of $83,000, with an additional mandatory repayment each year equal to 50% of the Company’s Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Restated Loan Agreement) for such year, if any. Term Loan B borrowings incur interest at LIBOR or the Base Rate or a combination, plus the Applicable Margins, which was 3.25% and 2.25% at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. As the result of computing the Company’s Excess Cash Flow for the year 2014, in April 2015, the Company repaid $2,417,000, which was the balance of the Term Loan B at March 31, 2015 with funds available from its Revolver.

The Company borrowed $380,000 and $519,000 in March 2012 and September 2012, respectively, as loans primarily for machinery and equipment (“Capex Term Loans”). Applicable Margins added to these Capex Term Loans at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were 3.00% and 2.00%, respectively for borrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate, respectively.

P&F INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

General

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Reform Act”) provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of P&F Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries (“P&F”, or the “Company”). P&F and its representatives may, from time to time, make written or verbal forward-looking statements, including statements contained in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in its reports to stockholders. Generally, the inclusion of the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “will,” “may,” “would,” “could” and their opposites and similar expressions identify statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and that are intended to come within the safe harbor protection provided by those sections. Any forward-looking statements contained herein, including those related to the Company’s future performance, are based upon the Company’s historical performance and on current plans, estimates and expectations. All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties could cause the Company’s actual results for the 2015 fiscal year and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by or on behalf of the Company for a number of reasons, as previously disclosed in the Company’s public filings, including in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (“2014 Form 10-K”). Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Business

P&F and each of its subsidiaries are herein referred to collectively as the “Company.” In addition, the words “we”, “our” and “us” refer to the Company. The Company operates in two primary lines of business or segments: (i) tools and other products (“Tools”) and (ii) hardware and accessories (“Hardware”).

Tools

The Company conducts its Tools business through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Continental Tool Group, Inc. (“Continental”), which in turn currently operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Florida Pneumatic Manufacturing Corporation (“Florida Pneumatic”) and Hy-Tech Machine, Inc. (“Hy-Tech”). During the third quarter of 2014, the Company acquired Exhaust Technologies Inc. (“ETI”) and Universal Air Tool Company Limited (“UAT”). Both ETI and UAT are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Florida Pneumatic, and unless otherwise indicated, the operations and results of operations of Florida Pneumatic herein include ETI and UAT as of the respective dates such companies were acquired. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2014, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Air Tool Service Company (“ATSCO”), which business operates through a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hy-Tech. Unless otherwise indicated, the results of operations of Hy-Tech herein include ATSCO from the date the business was acquired.

Hardware

Overview

During the first quarter of 2015, our results of operations were impacted by a number of factors.

	·	The most significant factor is the positive impact on revenue and earnings provided by the three acquisitions completed during the third quarter of 2014.

	·	We believe the harsh, prolonged winter weather during the first quarter adversely impacted the performance of all of our operating subsidiaries. We continue to encounter softness in the pneumatic tools market, both at Hy-Tech and Florida Pneumatic, especially in the oil and gas exploration and production channels.

	·	Hy-Tech’s gross margin was negatively affected by the transition of ATSCO’s manufacturing operation from Mentor, Ohio to its facility in Cranberry, Pennsylvania.

KEY INDICATORS

Economic Measures

Much of our business is driven by the ebbs and flows of the general economic conditions in both the United States and, to a lesser extent, abroad. Our Tools segment focuses on a wide array of customer types including, but not limited to large retailers, aerospace, large and small resellers of pneumatic tools and parts; and automotive related customers. The Tools segment tends to track the general economic conditions of the United States, industrial production and general retail sales. The key economic measures for our Hardware group are housing starts and remodeling spending activity.

A key economic measure relevant to us is the cost of the raw materials in our products. Key materials include metals, especially various types of steel and aluminum. Also important is the value of the United States dollar (“USD”) in relation to the Taiwanese dollar (“TWD”), as we purchase a significant portion of our products from Taiwan. Purchases from Chinese sources are made in USDs. However, if the Chinese currency, (“RMB”), were to be revalued against the USD, there could be a significant negative impact on the cost of our products. As the result of the UAT acquisition, we closely monitor the fluctuation in the Great British Pound (“GBP”) to the USD, and the GBP to TWD, both of which can have an impact on the consolidated results.

The cost and availability of a quality labor pool in the countries where products and components are manufactured, both overseas as well as in the United States, could materially affect our overall results.

Operating Measures

Key operating measures we use to manage our operating segments are: orders; shipments; development of new products; customer retention; inventory levels and productivity. These measures are recorded and monitored at various intervals, including daily, weekly and monthly. To the extent these measures are relevant; they are discussed in the detailed sections below for each operating segment.

Financial Measures

Key financial measures we use to evaluate the results of our business include: various revenue metrics; gross margin; selling, general and administrative expenses; earnings before interest and taxes; operating cash flows and capital expenditures; return on sales; return on assets; days sales outstanding and inventory turns. These measures are reviewed at monthly, quarterly and annual intervals and compared to historical periods as well as established objectives. To the extent that these measures are relevant, they are discussed in the detailed sections below for each operating segment.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Descriptions of these policies are discussed in the 2014 Form 10-K. Certain of these accounting policies require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates, including, but not limited to those related to bad debts, inventory reserves, goodwill and intangible assets, warranty reserves and taxes and deferred taxes. We base our estimates on historical data and experience, when available, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the combined results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions. Significant changes, if any, in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those discussed in Item 7 of our 2014 Form 10-K.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Unless otherwise discussed below, we believe that our relationships with our key customers, given current economic conditions, remain satisfactory. For 2015, we have elected not to sell certain promotional products to Sears, which we did sell in 2014. This decision will result in a reduction of approximately $3 million of Sears revenue during the remainder of this year, when compared to the prior year. Other than the aforementioned, there were no major trends or uncertainties that had, or we could reasonably expect could have, a material impact on our revenue. Other than the three acquisitions that occurred during the third quarter of 2014, there was no unusual or infrequent event, transaction or any significant economic change that materially affected our results of operations. However, we believe that the prolonged, inclement weather during the first quarter of 2015 had some negative impact our results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015.

The table below provides an analysis of our net revenue for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:

Tools

Florida Pneumatic markets its air tool products to three primary sectors within the pneumatic tool market; retail, industrial/catalog and the automotive market. It also generates revenue from its Berkley products line as well as a line of air filters and other OEM parts (“Other”).

	Three months ended March 31,

	Revenue		Percent of revenue			Revenue		Percent of revenue			$			%

Other		300,000		2.9			383,000		5.1			(83,000	)		(21.7	)
Total	$	10,254,000		100.0	%	$	7,475,000		100.0	%	$	2,779,000			37.2	%

The most significant factors contributing to Florida Pneumatic’s overall growth in its first quarter 2015 revenue, compared to the first quarter of 2014, is the incremental automotive revenue generated by the addition of the AIRCAT and NITROCAT pneumatic tools lines acquired in the ETI acquisition in July 2014, to Florida Pneumatic’s existing line of automotive air tools, and revenue from UAT, located in the United Kingdom, which was acquired in July, 2014. With respect to Florida Pneumatic’s Retail revenue, during the first quarter of 2015, when compared to the same period last year, there was a slight decline in revenue from The Home Depot, partially offset by a modest increase in Sears revenue. Industrial/catalog revenue during the first quarter of 2015, although up slightly, compared to the same period in 2014, remains sluggish, most notably in aerospace and oil and gas exploration and production channels. We believe this weakness may continue. Florida Pneumatic’s Other revenue declined when compared to the same period in 2014, primarily due to Florida Pneumatic’s decision to place greater emphasis on expanding its other product lines.

Hy-Tech focuses primarily on the industrial sector of the pneumatic tools market. Hy-Tech manufactures and markets its own value-added line of air tools and parts, which now includes the ATSCO brand, as well as distributes a high quality line of complementary sockets, which, in the aggregate make up the “ATP” category. Hy-Tech Machine products (“Hy-Tech Machine”) are primarily marketed to the mining, construction and industrial manufacturing sectors.

	Three months ended March 31,
	2015					2014					Increase (decrease)
	Revenue		Percent of revenue			Revenue		Percent of revenue			$			%
ATP	$	3,018,000		70.1	%	$	2,562,000		68.9	%	$	456,000			17.8	%
Other		734,000		17.1			451,000		12.2			283,000			62.7
Major customer		553,000		12.8			703,000		18.9			(150,000	)		(21.3	)

Total	$	4,305,000		100.0	%	$	3,716,000		100.0	%	$	589,000			15.9	%

A primary factor contributing to the increase in ATP product line revenue was revenue generated by the sales of the ATSCO product line, which was acquired in the third quarter of 2014. This increase was partially offset by lower sales of its drilling motors and to a lesser degree, non-ATSCO related ATP tool and parts. Hy-Tech’s Other revenue, which focuses on specialty products manufactured for the mining, construction and industrial markets, as well as gears, sprockets, splines, and hydraulic stoppers, improved primarily due to a large order shipped during the first quarter of 2015. The ordering pattern from Hy-Tech’s Major customer is erratic and unpredictable, which results in quarter to quarter revenue swings. We believe this unpredictability is likely to continue at least for the remainder of 2015.

Hardware

Our Hardware segment, which currently consists of only Nationwide, generates revenue from the sale of Fence and Gate hardware, OEM products and Patio hardware.

	Three months ended March 31,
	2015					2014					Increase (decrease)
	Revenue		Percent of revenue			Revenue		Percent of revenue			$		%
Fence and Gate hardware	$	4,191,000		79.6	%	$	3,932,000		82.9	%	$	259,000		6.6	%
OEM		644,000		12.2			399,000		8.4			245,000		61.4
Patio		432,000		8.2			410,000		8.7			22,000		5.4

Total	$	5,267,000		100.0	%	$	4,741,000		100.0	%	$	526,000		11.1	%

Fence and Gate hardware continues to be Nationwide’s primary focus. As such, we intend to continue our current strategy, which is to develop new, innovative Fence and Gate hardware products and accessories. Additionally, Nationwide will continue its marketing efforts in both the United States and abroad. However, this strategy could impact the performance of Nationwide’s other product lines. The increase in Nationwide’s OEM products revenue is due primarily to the addition of a new, lower margin customer. We expect the buying pattern of this new OEM customer to be sporadic throughout the year. The increase in Patio revenue is due primarily to increased activity in the sale of foreclosed home units occurring primarily in Florida. Nationwide believes a portion of its overall revenue growth is due to the increase in new home construction and increased spending in the area of home renovation.

Tools

Significant factors contributing to Florida Pneumatic’s first quarter of 2015 gross margin improvement over the same period a year ago, include, among other things, the slightly higher gross margins generated at its overseas UAT subsidiary and its expanded automotive product line, which now includes the AIRCAT and NITROCAT suite of pneumatic power tools. Additionally, the strengthening of the U.S dollar also contributed to Florida Pneumatic’s improved gross margin. Further, its Retail gross margin also improved slightly this quarter compared to the first quarter of 2014, primarily due to product mix. However, due to a lower margin special order, our Industrial/catalog gross margin during the first quarter of 2015 was down from the same period in the prior year.

Hy-Tech’s gross margin this quarter, compared to the same period in 2014 is lower due primarily to the non-productive labor used to close and relocate ATSCO’s manufacturing equipment and inventory from Mentor, Ohio into Hy-Tech’s existing facility in Cranberry, PA. We believe that most of the integration of the ATSCO suite of products into Hy-Tech’s manufacturing facility should occur by late 2015, at which time its overhead absorption should improve. Additionally, the ATSCO product line is currently generating a gross margin that is lower than Hy-Tech’s historical gross margins

Hardware

Nationwide’s first quarter 2015 overall gross margin declined, compared to the same period in the prior year, due primarily to product mix. Additionally, Nationwide encountered slight competitive pricing pressure in both its Fence and Gate hardware, as well as its Patio product line. Lastly, a new OEM customer negatively impacted Nationwide’s gross margin. As Nationwide has decided to service this lower margin customer, it is likely that its OEM gross margins in future periods may be less than in the same period in prior years.

Selling and general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses, (“SG&A”) include salaries and related costs, commissions, travel, administrative facilities, communications costs and promotional expenses for our direct sales and marketing staff, administrative and executive salaries and related benefits, legal, accounting and other professional fees as well as general corporate overhead and certain engineering expenses.

During the first quarter of 2015, our SG&A was $6,096,000 or 30.7% of revenue, compared to $5,227,000, or 32.8% of revenue during the same three-month period in 2014. Although our SG&A, as a percentage of revenue declined, significant factors contributing to the dollar increase are primarily attributable to the three acquisitions completed during the third quarter of 2014. Specifically, our depreciation and amortization increased by $270,000, when comparing the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. In addition, as the result of the increased revenue our incremental variable costs which includes among other costs, commissions, warranty costs, freight out and advertising/promotional fees, increased by $144,000 during the first quarter of 2015, compared to the same period in the prior year. Further, when comparing the first quarters of 2015 and 2014, our professional services increased approximately $47,000. Compensation, which is comprised of base salaries and wages, accrued performance-based bonus incentives, associated payroll taxes and employee benefits, increased $270,000, the majority of this increase was due to the added staffing resulting from the three acquisitions. Lastly, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, Nationwide received $30,000 for providing various services for the benefit of the buyers of its Kitchen and Bath product line, which did not occur in 2015.

Interest

Our interest expense during the first quarter of 2015 was $192,000, compared to $89,000 for the same period in the prior year. The most significant factor affecting interest expense was the financing of the three acquisitions completed during the third quarter of 2014. The average balance of short-term borrowings during the first quarter of 2015 was $13,440,000, compared to $1,116,000 during the same three-month period in 2014. An increase in the applicable loan margins that are added to both our LIBOR (London InterBank Offered Rate) or Base Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement borrowings, also negatively impacted our interest expense. See Liquidity and Capital Resources for further discussion on the applicable margin rates. Included in our interest expense for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 is amortization expense of debt financing costs of $28,000 and $22,000, respectively.

Income Taxes

At the end of each interim reporting period, the Company estimates its effective tax rate expected to be applied for the full year. This estimate is used to determine the income tax provision on a year-to-date basis and may change in subsequent interim periods. As a result, our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was 36.6% and 35.7%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for both periods was affected primarily by state taxes and nondeductible expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our cash flows from operations can be somewhat cyclical, typically with the greatest demand in the first and third quarters followed by positive cash flows in the second and fourth quarter as receivables and inventories trend down. We monitor average days sales outstanding, inventory turns, estimated future purchasing requirements and capital expenditures to project liquidity needs and evaluate return on assets employed.

We gauge our liquidity and financial stability by various measurements, some of which are shown in the following table:

	March 31, 2015		December 31, 2014
Working Capital	$	15,101,000	$	13,927,000
Current Ratio		1.56 to 1		1.59 to 1
Shareholders’ Equity	$	40,728,000	$	39,991,000

Credit Facility

We entered into a Loan and Security Agreement in October 2010, as amended (“Credit Agreement”) with COBC, as agent and lender. The Credit Agreement expires December 19, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”). The Credit Agreement provides for Revolver borrowings, which are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, mortgages on its real property located in Cranberry, PA, Jupiter, FL and Tampa, FL (“Real Property”), inventory and equipment. P&F and certain of its subsidiaries are borrowers under the Credit Agreement, and their obligations are cross-guaranteed by certain other subsidiaries. Revolver borrowings bear interest at either LIBOR (London InterBank Offered Rate) or the Base Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement (“Base Rate”), plus the Applicable Margin (the “Applicable Margin”), as defined in the Credit Agreement. The interest rate, either LIBOR or Base Rate, which is added to the Applicable Margin, is at the option of the Company, subject to limitations on the number of LIBOR borrowings.

On August 13, 2014, we entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Restated Loan Agreement”) with COBC. The Restated Loan Agreement, among other things, amended the Credit Agreement by: (1) increasing the total amount of the credit facility from $29,423,000 to $33,657,000, (2) increasing the Revolver from $20,000,000 to $22,000,000, (3) creating a new $3,000,000 Term Loan, as defined in the Restated Loan Agreement (“Term Loan B”), and (4) re-designating as “Term Loan A”, the previously existing outstanding Term Loan, which relates primarily to the Company’s real property.

The balance of Revolver borrowings outstanding was $15,022,000 and $11,817,000, at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Applicable Margins added to Revolver borrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were 2.25% and 1.25%, respectively.

Additionally, the Restated Loan Agreement provided for a Term Loan B, pursuant to which the Company borrowed the maximum principal amount of $3,000,000 as part of the ATSCO acquisition. This Term Loan B was to be repaid in 36 consecutive monthly payments of $83,000, with an additional mandatory repayment each year equal to 50% of the Company’s Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Restated Loan Agreement) for such year, if any. As the result of computing the Company’s Excess Cash Flow for the year 2014, in April 2015, the Company repaid $2,417,000, which was the balance of the Term Loan B at March 31, 2015, with funds available from its Revolver.

Additionally, we borrowed $380,000 and $519,000 in March 2012 and September 2012, respectively, as loans primarily for machinery and equipment (“Capex Term Loans”). The repayment of these two Capex Term Loans is based on sixty-month amortization periods, resulting in repayments of approximately $6,000 and $9,000, respectively. Applicable Margins added to these Capex Term Loans at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were 3.0% and 2.0% respectively, for borrowings at LIBOR and the Base Rate, respectively.

Cash flows

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, our net cash decreased $352,000 to $659,000 from $1,011,000 at December 31, 2014. Our total bank debt at March 31, 2015 was $24,227,000, compared to $21,387,000 at December 31, 2014. Our revolver borrowings increased approximately $3.2 million, due primarily to our seasonal need for cash during the first quarter. The aforementioned also contributed to the increase in the percent of the total debt to total book capitalization (total debt divided by total debt plus equity), which at March 31, 2015 was 37.4%, compared to 34.9% at December 31, 2014. During the remainder of 2015, as we generate cash from operations, barring unexpected events, we believe that our short-term borrowings should decline to amounts below December 31, 2014 levels.

Our capital spending was $184,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, compared to $182,000 during the same period in the prior year. Capital expenditures for the balance of 2015 are expected to be approximately $1,500,000, some of which may be financed through our credit facilities or financed through independent third party financial institutions. The remaining 2015 capital expenditures will primarily be for expansion of existing product lines and replacement of equipment.

Customer concentration

Within our Tools segment we have two retail customers that account for 6.3% and 26.6% of our consolidated accounts receivable at March 31, 2015, and 17.7% and 25.6% at December 31, 2014. To date, these customers, with minor exceptions, are current in their payments. Further, these two customers in the aggregate, accounted for 26.1% of our consolidated revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, compared to 31.1% for the same three-month period in 2014.

We believe that the loss of one or both of these customers would negatively impact our working capital, but would not affect our ability to remain a going concern.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted would have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's CEO and CFO, evaluated, as of March 31, 2015, the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, which were designed to be effective at the reasonable assurance level. The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2015, the Company’s management, including its CEO and CFO, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level at that date.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting, identified in connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d), that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
