See accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. -3- 6 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Peerless Mfg. Co. and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the company's audited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes which are included in the company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included. Operating results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2001. 2. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE. The following table presents the calculation of earnings per share for the periods indicated.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 1999 ----------- ----------- Net earnings (loss) $ (532,148) $ 286,589 =========== =========== Basic average common shares outstanding 1,471,302 1,452,796 Effect of dilutive securities: Options -- 8,689 ----------- ----------- Diluted average common shares outstanding 1,471,302 1,461,485 Net income (loss) per share - basic $ (0.36) $ 0.20 Net income (loss) per share - assuming dilution $ (0.36) $ 0.20
Options to purchase 76,300 additional shares of common stock have no impact on earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended September 30, 2000, because their effect was antidilutive. 3. USE OF ESTIMATES. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. -4- 7 PEERLESS MFG. CO. 4. INVENTORIES. Inventories are stated the lower of cost or market. Principal components of inventories are as follows:
September 30, June 30, 2000 2000 ------------- ---------- Raw materials $1,446,138 $1,252,111 Work in process 2,839,817 1,669,348 Finished goods 352,316 366,498 ---------- ---------- Total inventories $4,638,271 $3,287,957
5. SEGMENT INFORMATION. The company has two reportable industry segments: (1) gas/liquid filtration; and (2) catalytic reduction systems. The gas/liquid filtration segment produces various types of separators and filters used for removing liquids and solids from gases and air. This segment also provides engineering design and services, pulsation dampness, natural gas odorizers, quick-opening closures and parts for its products. The catalytic reduction systems segment produces "Selective Catalytic Reduction Systems (SCR)" used to separate nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from exhaust gases caused by burning hydrocarbon fuels such as coal, gasoline, natural gas and oil. We combine these products with other components as totally integrated systems. Many of the company's components are packaged on skids complete with instruments, controls and related valves and piping. Segment profit and loss is based on revenue, less direct costs of the segment before allocation of general, administrative, research and development costs. There were no sales or transfers between segments. Segment information and a reconciliation to operating profit for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 are presented below. Note that the company does not allocate assets, expenditures for assets or depreciation expense on a segment basis for internal management reporting and, therefore, such information is not presented.

6. BUSINESS COMBINATION. On February 25, 2000, the company purchased substantially all the assets of ABCO Industries, Inc. ("ABCO") for approximately $1,700,000. No goodwill resulted from the acquisition. ABCO is in the business of designing and manufacturing industrial boilers. The unaudited pro forma data assuming that the acquisition of APCO had occurred on July 1, 1999 is set forth below:

-5- 8 PEERLESS MFG. CO. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The company's fiscal year ends on June 30th. References herein to fiscal 2000 and fiscal 2001 refer to our fiscal years ended June 30, 2000 and 2001, respectively. THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 The following table displays the company's statements of operations as a percentage of net revenues:
Three Months Ended September 30, 2000 1999 ----- ----- Net revenues 100.0% 100.0% Cost of revenues 72.2 70.4 Gross margin 27.8 29.6 Operating expenses 32.7 26.5 ----- ----- Earnings (loss) from operations (4.9) 3.1 Interest expense, net (1.7) 0.1 Other, net (1.1) 0.6 ----- ----- Earnings (loss) before income taxes (7.6) 3.6 Income taxes (2.8) 1.3 Net earnings (loss) (4.8)% 2.3%
Net revenues decreased $1.2 million, or 10%, from $12.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to $11.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000. Domestic sales decreased 4% from $10.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to $10.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000. Domestic sales declines were caused primarily by a general decline in industry demand for our gas/liquid filtration products, which was offset by the increase in demand for our SCR products. Additional SCR opportunities are the direct result of the new gas turbine powered electric generating facilities being built to fill demand for electronic power in the U.S. these projects require clean burning gas which in turn creates the opportunity to sell our gas cleaning equipment. Coal fired electric power plants are also contributing to the stronger demand we are seeing for our SCR products. These products are necessary to insure compliance with the U.S. government's mandate for lower NOx emission levels. We provide ammonia storage and delivery systems to be used as part of the SCR systems to be installed at these coal fired plants. Foreign sales decreased 61% from $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000. The decrease was attributable to the timing and size of new orders received by the company from its customers. -6- 9 PEERLESS MFG. CO. Our backlog of unfilled orders decreased by $1.7 million from $25.0 million at September 30, 1999 to $24.0 million at September 30, 2000. Our gross profit decreased $0.6 million, or 16%, from $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000. The lower gross profit margin is primarily due to the sale of our products to a significant customer at lower profit margins and the additional manufacturing capacity acquired with the ABCO acquisition in February 2000. Operating expenses increased by $0.4 million, or 11%, from $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 1999 to $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to costs associated with the ABCO acquisition. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES We maintain two separate short-term revolving lines of credit, each in the amount of $5,500,000, one of which is with Chase Bank of Texas N.A. and the other with Bank of America. The credit lines expire in December 2000. The credit lines carry a floating interest rate based on either Libor or the prime rate and is unsecured. As of September 30, 2000, we had $6.6 million outstanding under the credit lines, $3.6 million outstanding under letters of credit, and we had $0.8 million of availability under the credit lines. We pay an annual commitment fee of 0.25% of the unused balance under the credit lines. The credit lines contain customary financial covenants, one of which we were not in compliance with as of September 30, 2000. We have received a waiver of this covenant through December 2000 and are in the process of making arrangements to refinance the lines of credit prior to the end of December 2000. We have historically been a net user of cash from operations and have financed our working capital requirements and capital expenditures through the retention of earnings and the use of our short-term credit lines. Cash provided by operating activities was $0.4 million for the first three months of fiscal 2001 compared to cash used in operating activities of $0.2 million for the same period in fiscal 2000. The change was primarily the result of the increase in orders accounted for utilizing the percentage of completion methodology, partially offset by the $0.5 million net loss we incurred in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 compared to net income of $0.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. We believe we maintain adequate liquidity to support existing operations and planned growth, as well as continue operations during reasonable periods of unanticipated adversity. Management directs additional resources to strategic new product development, market expansion and continuing improvement of existing products to enhance our position as a market leader and to promote planned internal growth and profitability. CAUTION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS The company occasionally makes forward-looking statements concerning its plans, goals, product and service offerings, and anticipated financial performance. These forward-looking statements may generally be identified by introductions such as "outlook" for an upcoming period of time, or words and phrases such as "should", "expect", "hope", "plans", "projected", "believes", "forward-looking" -7- 10 PEERLESS MFG. CO. (or variants of those words and phrases) or similar language indicating the expression of an opinion or view concerning the future. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties based on a number of factors and actual results or events may differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to: the growth rate of the company's revenue and market share; the consummation of new, and the non-termination of, existing contracts; the company's ability to effectively manage its business functions while growing its business in a rapidly changing environment; the company's ability to adapt and expand its services in such an environment; the effective and efficient management of the company's backlog, inventory levels and processing of sales orders; the quality of the company's plans and strategies; and the company's ability to execute such plans and strategies. In addition, forward-looking statements concerning the company's expected revenue or earnings levels are subject to many additional uncertainties applicable to competitors generally and to general economic conditions over which the company has no control. The company does not plan to generally publicly update prior forward-looking statements for unanticipated events or otherwise and, accordingly, prior forward-looking statements should not be considered to be "fresh" simply because the company has not made additional comments on those forward-looking statements. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Our earnings are affected by changes in interest rates due to the impact those changes have on the interest expense payable by us under our variable rate debt revolving line of credit, for which the outstanding balance was $6.6 million as of September 30, 2000. A 1.0% change in the underlying LIBOR or prime rate would result in a $66,000 change in the annual amount of interest based on the impact of the hypothetical interest rates on our revolving line of credit outstanding as of September 30, 2000. -8- 11 PEERLESS MFG. CO. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS. During the three month period ended September 30, 2000, options to acquire 3,500 shares were exercised by a former employee of the company under the terms of the company's stock option plan. ITEM 6.
