CPS TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

(1) Nature of Business

CPS Technologies Corporation (the “Company” or “CPS”) provides advanced material solutions to the electronics, power generation, automotive and other industries. The Company’s primary advanced material solution is metal matrix composites which are a combination of metal and ceramic.

CPS also assembles housings and packages for hybrid circuits. These housings and packages may include components made of metal-matrix composites or they may include components made of more traditional materials such as aluminum and copper-tungsten.

In 2008 the Company also entered into a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Army to further develop its composite technology to produce armor.

(2) Interim Financial Statements

As permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, these notes are condensed and do not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements of CPS reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for such periods.

The Company’s balance sheet at December 29, 2012 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. Certain items in the 2012 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2013 presentation.

For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included CPS’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012.

The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The Company’s second fiscal quarter end is the Saturday closest to June 30^th, which could result in a 13 or 14 week fiscal quarter. The second quarters for fiscal 2012 and 2013 each consisted of 13 weeks.

(3) Net Income (Loss) Per Common and Common Equivalent Share

Basic net income or loss per common share is calculated by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares plus additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential dilutive common shares had been issued for granted stock option and stock purchase rights. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted calculations when a net loss is incurred as they would be anti-dilutive.

The following table presents the calculation of both basic and diluted EPS:

	Three Months Ended					Nine-Months Ended

Diluted EPS	$	0.03	$	(0.04	)	$	0.05	$	(0.11	)

(4) Share-Based Payments

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company provides an estimate of forfeitures at initial grant date. Reductions in compensation expense associated with the forfeited options are estimated at the date of grant, and this estimated forfeiture rate is adjusted periodically based on actual forfeiture experience. The company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the stock options granted.

There were no stock options granted under the Company’s 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) during the quarters ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012. During the three and nine months ended September 28, 2013 the Company recognized $66,385 and $182,150, respectively as share-based compensation expense related to previously granted shares under the Plan.

During the three and nine months ended September 29, 2012 the Company recognized $55,127 and $168,378, respectively, as share-based compensation expense related to previously granted shares under the Plan.

There were no option exercises during the quarter ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012. No options expired during the quarters ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012.

(5) Inventories

Inventories consist of the following:

	September 28,			December 29,

Reserve for obsolescence		(377,000	)		(307,000	)
Inventories, net	$	2,048,860		$	2,457,315

(6) Accrued Expenses

Accrued expenses consist of the following:

	September 28,		December 29,
	2013		2012
Accrued legal and accounting	$	114,575	$	92,000
Accrued payroll		819,530		388,029
Accrued other		226,588		458,014
	$	1,160,693	$	938,043

The accrued payroll at September 28, 2013 includes $150 thousand for 401k company match and $195 thousand for incentive bonuses. These items totaled $0 and $130 thousand respectively on December 29, 2012.

(7) Line of Credit and Equipment Lease Facility Agreements

In early May 2013, the Company renewed its $2 million revolving line of credit (“LOC”) and $500 thousand of an equipment finance facility (“Lease Line”) with Sovereign Bank (name recently changed to Santander Bank).   Both agreements mature in May 2014.  The LOC is secured by the accounts receivable and other assets of the Company, has an interest rate of prime plus one percent (1%) and a one-year term.

At September 28, 2013 the Company had no borrowings under this LOC while its borrowing base at the time would have permitted borrowings of $2.0 million. The LOC and the Lease Line are cross defaulted and cross collateralized. The Company is also subject to certain financial covenants within the terms of the line of credit that require the Company to maintain a targeted coverage ratio as well as targeted debt to equity and current ratios. At September 28, 2013, the Company was in compliance with existing covenants. 

At September 28, 2013, the Company had $260 thousand net carrying value of capital equipment financed by advances and capital lease obligations under the Lease Line and $240 thousand available remaining. Equipment financed by the Santander equipment lease qualifies for treatment as a capital lease once converted from the Lease Line to a lease. 

(8) Income Taxes

At December 29, 2012, the Company had approximately $3,303 thousand of net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future income for U.S. Federal income tax purpose.

The Company recorded a tax expense of $159 thousand and $242 thousand for federal income taxes and a tax expense of $45 thousand and $69 thousand for state income taxes during the three and nine months ended September 28, 2013.

The Company has a current and non-current deferred tax asset aggregating $2,593 thousand and $2,787 thousand on the Company`s balance sheet at September 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively. The Company believes that it will generate sufficient future taxable income to realize the tax benefits related to the remaining deferred tax assets and as such no valuation allowance has been provided against the deferred tax asset.

(9) Commitments

In July 2006, the Company entered into a lease for its current operating facilities of approximately 37,520 square feet of rentable space located on approximately seven acres at its current site in Norton, MA. The term of the lease is ten years. The lease is a triple net lease wherein the Company is responsible for payment of all real estate taxes, operating costs and utilities. The Company also has an option to buy the property and a first right of refusal during the term of the lease. Annual rental payments are $100 thousand in year one increasing to $150 thousand in year ten.

In February 2011, the Company entered into a one-year lease, with five options to renew for one year periods, for approximately 13,800 square feet of rentable space inside a larger building located at 79 Walton Street, Attleboro, Massachusetts. Monthly rent, which includes utilities, is $7 thousand. In October 2013, the Company renewed the lease through February, 2015.

Overview

CPS Technologies Corporation (the ‘Company’ or ‘CPS’) provides advanced material solutions to the electronics, power generation, automotive and other industries. In 2008 the Company also entered into a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Army to further develop its composite technology to produce armor.

The Company’s products are generally used in high-power, high-reliability applications. These applications always involve energy use or energy generation and the Company’s products allow higher performance and improved energy efficiency. The Company is an important participant in the growing movement towards alternative energy and "green" lifestyles. For example, the Company’s products are used in mass transit, hybrid and electric cars, wind-turbines for electricity generation as well as routers and switches for the internet which in turn allows telecommuting.

The Company’s primary advanced material solution is metal matrix composites (MMCs), a new class of materials which are a combination of metal and ceramic. CPS has a leading, proprietary position in metal matrix composites. Metal matrix composites have several superior properties compared to conventional materials including improved thermal conductivity, thermal expansion matching, stiffness and light weight which enable higher performance and higher reliability in our customers’ products.

Like plastics several decades ago, we believe metal-matrix composites will penetrate many end markets over many years. CPS management believes our business model of providing advanced material solutions to a portfolio of high growth end markets which are, at any point in time, in various stages of the technology adoption lifecycle, provides CPS with the opportunity for sustained growth and a diversified customer base. We believe we have validated this model as we are now supplying customers at all stages of the technology adoption lifecycle.

CPS is the leader in supplying metal matrix composites to certain high growth electronics end markets which are well along in the adoption lifecycle and therefore generating significant demand. These end markets include high-performance integrated circuits and circuit boards used in internet switches and routers, as well as motor controllers used in high-speed electric trains, subway cars and wind turbines. CPS supplies heat spreaders, lids and baseplates to customers in these end markets. CPS is a fully qualified manufacturer for many of the world’s largest electronics OEMs.

CPS also assembles housings and packages for hybrid circuits. These housings and packages may include components made of metal-matrix composites; they may include components made of more traditional materials such as aluminum and copper-tungsten.

A market at an earlier stage of the adoption lifecycle is the market for hybrid and electric automobiles. The Company recently announced a multi-year supply agreement with a major tier one automotive supplier for the supply of AlSiC pin fin baseplates for use in motor controllers for hybrid and electric automobiles.

We are also actively working with customers in end markets at the beginning stages of the adoption lifecycle. An example of such a market is the market for armor. In 2008 the Company entered into a cooperative agreement with the Army Research Laboratory to further develop large hybrid metal matrix composite modules which integrally combine metal matrix composites and ceramics by enveloping ceramic tiles with MMCs. This system offers a lighter weight, durable, multi-hit capable and cost competitive alternative to conventional steel, aluminum and ceramic based armor systems. CPS hybrid hard face armor modules are comprised of multiple materials completely enveloped within and mechanically and chemically bonded to lightweight and stiff aluminum metal matrix composites.

The Company believes that its hybrid hard face armor tiles will find application in many military vehicles as well as armored commercial vehicles.

Our products are manufactured by proprietary processes we have developed including the QuicksetTM Injection Molding Process (‘Quickset Process’) and the QuickCastTM Pressure Infiltration Process (‘QuickCast Process’).

CPS was incorporated in Massachusetts in 1984 as Ceramics Process Systems Corporation and reincorporated in Delaware in April 1987 through a merger into a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary organized for purposes of the reincorporation. In July 1987, CPS completed our initial public offering of 1.5 million shares of our Common Stock. In March 2007, we changed our name from Ceramics Process Systems Corporation to CPS Technologies Corporation.

Results of Operations for the Third Fiscal Quarter of 2013 (Q3 2013) Compared to the Third Fiscal Quarter of 2012 (Q3 2012); (all $ in 000’s)

Total revenue was $5,974 in Q3 2013, a 118% increase compared with total revenue of $2,744

generated in Q3 2012. This increase was due in large part to the sales of baseplates for traction and hybrid electric vehicle applications and, to a lesser degree, the sales of hermetic packages.

Gross margin in Q3 2013 totaled $1,718 or 29% of sales.  In Q3 2012, the Company experienced a gross margin loss of $236, or 9% of sales.   This improvement was due primarily to the increase in sales volume which had the effect of spreading fixed costs over a much larger sales volume.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $1,059 in Q3 2013, up 65% compared with SG&A expenses of $641 in Q3 2012.  This increase was due in large part to three factors: an increase in sales commissions associated with the higher sales volume, an increase in compensation expense for incentive bonuses and a 401K match which had been suspended in early 2012, and higher legal expenses associated with an overseas patent suit.

As a result primarily of the higher revenues, the Company earned an operating profit of $659, compared with an operating loss of $877 in the same quarter last year.  Interest expense decreased to $4 in Q3 2013, from $5 in Q3 2012, reflecting an elimination of bank borrowings in Q3 2013.  The net income for Q3 2013 totaled $452 versus a net loss of $531 in Q3 2012.

Results of Operations for the First Nine Months of 2013 Compared to the First Nine Months of 2012 (all $ in 000’s)

Total revenue was $16,306 in the first nine months of 2013, a 64% increase compared with total revenue of $9,927 generated in the first nine months of 2012. This increase was due in large part to the sales of baseplates for traction and hybrid electric vehicle applications and, to a much lesser degree, sales of hermetic packages.

Gross margin in the first nine months of 2013 totaled $3,996 or 25% of sales.  In the first nine months of 2012, the Company had a gross margin loss of $77, or 1% of sales.   This improvement was due, to in large part, to higher sales volume which had the effect of spreading fixed costs over a much larger sales volume. 

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $ 2,967 during the first nine months of 2013, up 29% compared with SG&A expenses of $2,295 in the first nine months of 2012.  This increase was due an increase in compensation expense for incentive bonuses and the 401K match, an increase in sales commissions associated with the higher sales volume and, to a lesser degree, higher legal expenses associated with the overseas patent issue cited earlier.

Primarily as a result of the higher revenues, the Company earned an operating profit of $1,029 in the first nine months of 2013, compared with an operating loss of $ 2,372 in the same period last year.  Interest expense increased to $27 in the first nine months of 2013, from $16 in the first nine months of 2012, reflecting a higher average bank borrowings during 2013.  Net income for the first nine months of 2013 totaled $691 versus a net loss of $1,438 in the first nine months of 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (all $ in 000’s unless noted)

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at September 28, 2013 totaled $596 with no borrowings on the Company’s line of credit. This compares with cash and cash equivalents of $307 and bank borrowings of $500 on its credit line at December 29, 2012. This improvement in the Company’s net cash position of $789 (i.e. cash less borrowing on the credit line), was primarily due to earnings from operations. During the first nine months of 2013, the Company’s investment in receivables, inventories and prepaid expenses, less accounts payables and accruals, was approximately 12% higher than the total at year-end 2012. The higher receivables are due to higher sales and was the primary contributor to the increase.

Accounts receivable at September 28, 2013 totaled $4.2 million compared with $2.9 million at December 29, 2012. Days Sales Outstanding (DSOs) increased to 64 days compared with DSO’s of 63 at the end of Q4 2012.  The accounts receivable balances at December 29, 2012, and September 28, 2013 were both net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $10.

Inventories totaled $2.0 million at September 28, 2013, down from $2.5 million at December 29,

2012. During 2011, the Company increased inventories to meet forecasts provided by a key customer; actual demand was short of the forecasts.  During 2012, primarily in the Fourth Quarter of 2012, the Company was able to draw down on this inventory as sales from this customer increased and this trend continued into 2013. The Company did not experience any obsolescence as a result of this situation. The inventory balance at quarter ended September 28, 2013, was net of an obsolescence reserve $377 thousand. The turnover in 2012 was 4.4 and has improved to 6.7 for the most recent four quarters.

All consigned inventory is shipped under existing purchase orders and per customers’ requests. Of the inventory of $2.0 million at September 28, 2013, $ 935 thousand was located at customers’ locations pursuant to consigned inventory agreements. Of the total inventory of $2.5 million at December 29, 2012, $1.4 million was located at customers’ locations pursuant to consigned inventory agreements.

The Company financed its working capital during Q3 2013 with a combination of beginning cash balances and cash flow generated from operations.  The Company expects it will continue to be able to fund its working capital requirements for the remainder of 2013 from a combination of operating cash flow, existing cash balances and borrowings under its line of credit, if necessary.

The Company continues to sell to a limited number of customers and the loss of any one of these customers could cause the Company to require additional external financing. Failure to generate sufficient revenues, raise additional capital or reduce certain discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its business objectives.

Contractual Obligations

In early May 2013, the Company renewed its $2 million revolving line of credit (“LOC”) and $500 thousand of an equipment finance facility (“Lease Line”) with Santander Bank.  Both agreements mature in May 2014.  The LOC is secured by the accounts receivable and other assets of the Company, has an interest rate of prime plus one percent (1%) and a one-year term. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is required to maintain its operating accounts and restricted cash of $70,000 with Sovereign Bank. This restriction was removed in August 2013 after the Company earned a profit for the second quarter. The LOC and the Lease Line are cross defaulted and cross collateralized. The Company is also subject to certain financial covenants within the terms of the line of credit that require the Company to maintain a targeted coverage ratio as well as targeted debt to equity and current ratios. At September 28, 2013, the Company was in compliance with existing covenants.  At September 28, 2013, the Company had $260 thousand net carrying value of capital equipment financed by advances and capital lease obligations under the Lease Line and $240 thousand available remaining. Equipment financed by the Santander equipment lease qualifies for treatment as a capital lease once converted from the Lease Line to a lease.  At September 28, 2013 the Company had no borrowings under this LOC while its borrowing base at the time would have permitted borrowings of $ 2.0 million.

The covenants with Santander Bank are identical for the line of credit and equipment financing facility. The covenant requirements are shown below together with the actual ratios achieved for the Third Quarter of 2013:

Covenant	Requirement	Actual
Quarterly Net Income	Minimum of $1.00	$ 451
Current Ratio	minimum of 1.5X		2.4
Liabilities to Net Worth	maximum of 1.0X		0.3
Capital Expenditures for 2013	maximum of $900k	$ 517
Borrowings under the lease line	maximum of $500K	$ 260
Borrowings under the line of credit	maximum of $2,000K*	$ 0
	*(based on receivables at 9/28/13)

Management believes that cash flows from operations, existing cash balances and the leasing and credit line in place with Santander Bank will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements for the foreseeable future. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to generate sufficient revenues or reduce certain discretionary spending in the event that planned operational goals are not met such that we will be able to meet our obligations as they become due.

As of September 28, 2013 the Company had $527thousand of construction in progress and outstanding commitments to purchase $27 thousand of production equipment.  The Company intends to

finance production equipment in construction in progress and outstanding commitments with a combination of existing cash balances, funds generated by operations and lease financing.

In July 2006, the Company entered into a 10-year lease for its current operating facilities of approximately 37,520 square feet of rentable space located on approximately seven acres at its current site in Norton, MA. The lease is a triple net lease wherein the Company is responsible for payment of all real estate taxes, operating costs and utilities.  The Company also has an option to buy the property and a first right of refusal during the term of the lease.  Annual rental payments were $100 thousand in year one increasing to $150 thousand in year ten.

In February 2011, the Company entered into a lease for an additional 13.8 thousand square feet in Attleboro, MA for monthly rent, including utilities of $7 thousand.  The lease term was for one year and had an option to extend the lease for five additional one year periods. In October 2013 the Company renewed the lease for one additional year through February, 2015.

The Company’s contractual obligations at September 28, 2013 consist of the following:

			Payments Due by Period
			Remaining in		FY 2014-
	Total		FY 2013		FY 2016
Capital lease obligations including interest	$	99,356	$	21,290	$ 78,066
Purchase commitments for production equipment	$	26,945	$	26,945	$	—
Operating lease obligation for facilities	$	398,433	$	55,700	$	342,733

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Net Income (Loss) Per Common and Common Equivalent Share

(3) Net Income (Loss) Per Common and Common Equivalent Share

Basic net income or loss per common share is calculated by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares plus additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential dilutive common shares had been issued for granted stock option and stock purchase rights. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted calculations when a net loss is incurred as they would be anti-dilutive.

The following table presents the calculation of both basic and diluted EPS:

Share-Based Payments

(4) Share-Based Payments

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company provides an estimate of forfeitures at initial grant date. Reductions in compensation expense associated with the forfeited options are estimated at the date of grant, and this estimated forfeiture rate is adjusted periodically based on actual forfeiture experience. The company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the stock options granted.

There were no stock options granted under the Company’s 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) during the quarters ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012. During the three and nine months ended September 28, 2013 the Company recognized $66,385 and $182,150, respectively as share-based compensation expense related to previously granted shares under the Plan.

During the three and nine months ended September 29, 2012 the Company recognized $55,127 and $168,378, respectively, as share-based compensation expense related to previously granted shares under the Plan.

There were no option exercises during the quarter ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012. No options expired during the quarters ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012.
