However, the information furnished reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items which are, in the opinion of management, necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2004 have been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2004.

("NCS"), ADDvantage Technologies Group of Missouri, (dba "Comtech Services"), ADDvantage Technologies Group of Texas, (dba "Tulsat - Texas"), and Tulsat - Atlanta, LLC ("Tulsat - Atlanta") (collectively, the "Company"), sells new, surplus, and refurbished cable television equipment throughout North America in addition to being a repair center for various cable companies. The Company operates in one business segment. Note 3 - Earnings Per Share Basic and diluted net earnings per share were computed in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period and excludes the dilutive effect of stock options. Diluted net earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during a period. In computing diluted net earnings per share, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be reacquired under the treasury stock method from the exercise of stock options. -7- Three Months Ended June 30, Nine Months Ended June 30, 2005 2004 2005 2004 ------------ ----------- ------------ ----------- Basic EPS Computation: Net income attributable to common stockholders $ 1,236,426 $ 1,405,232 $ 3,419,351 $ 3,702,028 Weighted average outstanding common shares 10,070,172 10,057,172 10,065,685 10,034,700 Earnings per Share - Basic$ 0.12 $ 0.14 $ 0.34 $ 0.37 =========== =========== =========== =========== Diluted EPS Computation: Net income attributable to common stockholders $ 1,236,426 $ 1,405,232 $ 3,419,351 $ 3,702,028 Add: Dividends on Series A convertible preferred stock - 100,000 - 300,000 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Net income attributable to common stockholders - Diluted $ 1,236,426 $ 1,505,232 $ 3,419,351 $ 4,002,028 Weighted average outstanding common shares 10,070,172 10,057,172 10,065,685 10,034,700 Potentially dilutive securities - ------------------------------- Assumed conversion of 200,000 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock - 2,000,000 - 2,000,000 Effect of dilutive stock options 26,983 73,682 44,059 79,733 ----------- ---------- ----------- ----------- Weighted average shares outstanding - - assuming dilution 10,097,155 12,130,854 10,109,744 12,114,433 Earnings per Share-Diluted$ 0.12 $ 0.12 $ 0.34 $ 0.33 =========== =========== =========== =========== Note 4 - Line of Credit, Stockholder Loans, and Notes Payable At June 30, 2005, a $1,897,064 balance is outstanding under a $7 million line of credit due September 30, 2005, with interest payable monthly based on the prevailing 30-day LIBOR rate plus 2.0% (5.3% at June 30, 2005). Borrowings under the line of credit are limited to the lesser of $7 million or the sum of 80% of qualified accounts receivable and 50% of qualified inventory for working capital purposes. Among other financial covenants, the line of credit agreement provides that the Company's net worth must be greater than $15 million plus 50% of annual net income (with no deduction for net losses), determined quarterly. The line of credit is collateralized by inventory, accounts receivable, equipment and fixtures, and general intangibles. Cash receipts are applied from the Company's lockbox account directly against the bank line of credit, and checks clearing the bank are funded from the line -8- of credit. The resulting overdraft balance, consisting of outstanding checks, was $398,949 at June 30, 2005, and is included in the bank revolving line of credit. An $8 million amortizing term note with Bank of Oklahoma was obtained to finance the redemption of the outstanding shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at September 30, 2004. The outstanding balance on this note was $7.1 million at June 30, 2005. The note is due on September 30, 2009, with monthly principal payments of $100,000 plus accrued interest, and the note bears interest at the prevailing 30-day LIBOR rate plus 2.50%. An interest rate swap was entered into simultaneously with the note on September 30, 2004, which fixed the interest rate at 6.13%. Upon entering into this interest rate swap, the Company designated this derivative as a cash flow hedge by documenting the Company's risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge along with methods for assessing the swap's effectiveness. At June 30, 2005, the fair market value of the interest rate swap approximated its carrying value of $81,143. Notes payable secured by real estate of $356,695 are due in monthly payments through 2013 with interest at 5.5% through 2008, converting thereafter to prime minus .25%. -9- ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview We are a Value Added Reseller ("VAR") for selected Scientific-Atlanta and Motorola broadband new products. We also specialize in the sale of refurbished, previously-owned cable television ("CATV") equipment to CATV operators and other broadband communication companies. Within the last three years, we have become distributors for several different manufacturers of equipment and other related products. It is through our development of these relationships that we have focused our initiative to market our products and services to the larger cable multiple system operators ("MSOs"). We continue to believe that as cable companies look at expanding their services in key markets and to remain competitive during this period of economic recovery, there will be an emphasis on minimizing their costs, thus creating a higher demand for our repair services and surplus-new equipment. Results of Operations Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004 Net Sales. Net sales decreased $589,000, or 4.6%, to $12.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2005, from $12.7 million for the same period in fiscal 2004. Sales of new equipment increased 1.1% to $9.0 million for the current period, compared with $8.9 million for the same period of fiscal 2004. Sales of remanufactured equipment decreased by 17.0% to $2.1 million for the current period, compared with $2.5 million in the same period last year. This quarter continues the trend of a changing product mix whereby remanufactured equipment sales are progressively being replaced with sales of new equipment. Repair service revenues decreased 21.1% to $965,000 for the current quarter, compared with $1.2 million for the same period last year. The decrease in repair service revenues is reflective of many MSOs electing to upgrade equipment with newer technology instead of repairing existing equipment in response to improving economic conditions and increased competition with other forms of broadband and transmission providers. Costs of Sales. Costs of sales includes (i) the costs of new and refurbished equipment, on a weighted average cost basis, sold during the period, (ii) the equipment costs used in repairs, (iii) the related transportation costs, and (iv) the labor and overhead directly related to these sales. Costs of sales decreased to $7.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2005 from $7.5 million for the same period of fiscal 2004. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in sales for the period. Costs of sales for new and refurbished equipment decreased to 65.1% of net sales income for 2005 from 65.6% of net sales income for 2004. This decrease was primarily due to the allowance for obsolete inventory recorded during 2004. Costs of sales for repair services decreased to 61.0% of net service income for 2005 from 68.6% of net service income for 2004. Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased $71,000, or 1.6%, to $4.26 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2005 from $4.33 million for the same period in fiscal 2004. The gross margin percentage was 35.2% for the current quarter, compared to 34.1% for the same quarter last year. The percentage increase was primarily due to the allowance for obsolete inventory recorded during 2004 discussed above. Operating, Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses include all personnel costs, including fringe benefits, insurance and taxes, occupancy, transportation (other than -10- freight-in), communication and professional services, among other less significant accounts. Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $15,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 2005, to $1.64 million from $1.65 million for the same period in 2004, a decrease of 0.9%. Income from Operations. Income from operations decreased approximately $45,000, or 1.7%, to $2.56 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2005 from $2.61 million for the same period last year. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in sales of refurbished equipment and repairs offset by the decrease in costs of sales in 2005. Interest Expense. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $145,667 compared to $37,404 for the same period last year. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in notes payable at September 30, 2004. The weighted average interest rate paid on our outstanding borrowings increased to 6.1% for 2005 from 2.75% for 2004. Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for fiscal 2005 increased to $970,000 from $854,000 in fiscal 2004. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the company's effective tax rate. Comparison of Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2005 and - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- June 30, 2004 - ------------- Net Sales. Net sales decreased $1.4 million, or 3.9%, to $34.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2005, from $35.6 million for the same period in fiscal 2004, primarily due to weather in the second quarter. Heavier than normal snowfall in the U.S. Northeast and excessive rainfall in the western parts of the country contributed to a decline of equipment orders during the second quarter of 2005. New equipment sales were down 1.2% to $24.6 million for the current period, compared with $24.9 million for the same period of fiscal 2004. Sales of remanufactured equipment decreased by 12.0% to $6.3 million for the current period, compared with $7.2 million in the same period last year. Repair service revenues were down 5.9% to $3.3 million for the current period, compared with $3.5 million for the same period last year. Costs of Sales. Costs of sales includes (i) the costs of new and refurbished equipment, on a weighted average cost basis, sold during the period, (ii) the equipment costs used in repairs, (iii) the related transportation costs, and (iv) the labor and overhead directly related to these sales. Costs of sales decreased to $22.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 from $23.6 million for the same period of fiscal 2004. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in sales for the period. Costs of sales for new and refurbished equipment decreased to 65.2% of net sales income for 2005 from 66.3% of net sales income for 2004. This decrease was primarily due to the allowance for obsolete inventory recorded during 2004. Costs of sales for repair services increased to 67.9% of net service income for 2005 from 65.6% of net service income for 2004. This increase was due primarily to more high-end hybrid and fiber optic equipment being repaired, which involves a higher relative cost of material. Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased $199,000, or 1.7%, to $11.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 from $12.0 million for the same period in fiscal 2004. The gross margin percentage was 34.6% for the current period, compared to 33.8% for the same period last year. The percentage increase was primarily due to the allowance for obsolete inventory recorded during 2004 discussed above. Operating, Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses include all personnel costs, including fringe benefits, insurance and taxes, occupancy, transportation (other than -11- freight-in), communication and professional services, among other less significant accounts. Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $163,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2005, to $4.7 million from $4.6 million for the same period in 2004, an increase of 3.6%. The increase in operating, selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increases in salaries and wages and the recovery in fiscal 2004 of a bad debt previously written off. Income from Operations. Income from operations decreased $336,000, or 4.6%, to $6.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 from $7.3 million for the same period last year. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in sales and the increase in operating, selling, general and administrative expenses, offset by the decrease in costs of sales in 2005. Interest Expense. Interest expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2005 was $438,858 compared to $134,286 for the same period last year. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in notes payable at September 30, 2004. The weighted average interest rate paid on our outstanding borrowings increased to 5.6% for 2005 from 2.75% for 2004. Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for fiscal 2005 decreased to $2.4 million from $2.5 million in fiscal 2004. This decrease was primarily due to lower pre-tax earnings in fiscal 2005. Critical Accounting Policies Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Form 10-K for fiscal year 2004 includes a summary of the significant accounting policies or methods used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements. Some of those significant accounting policies or methods require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported by us. We believe the following items require the most significant judgments and often involve complex estimates. General ------- 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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current market conditions, and various other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most significant estimates and assumptions relate to the carrying value of our inventory and, to a lesser extent, the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts. Inventory Valuation ------------------- Inventory consists of new and used electronic components for the cable television industry. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Market is defined principally as net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. We market our products primarily to MSOs and other users of cable television equipment who are seeking products of which manufacturers have discontinued production, or are seeking shipment on a same-day basis. Our position in the industry requires us to carry large inventory quantities -12- relative to quarterly sales, but also allows us to realize high overall gross profit margins on our sales. Carrying these large inventories represents our largest risk. For individual inventory items, we may carry inventory quantities that are excessive relative to market potential, or we may not be able to recover our acquisition costs for sales we are able to make in a reasonable period. Over the past two years, our investment in inventory has shifted to become predominantly new products purchased from manufacturers and "surplus-new" products, which are unused products purchased from other distributors or MSOs. In order to address the risks associated with our investment in inventory, we regularly review inventory quantities on hand and reduce the carrying value by recording a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on inventory aging and forecasts of product demand and pricing The broadband industry is characterized by changing customer demands and changes in technology that could result in significant increases or decreases of inventory pricing or increases in excess or obsolete quantities on hand Our estimates of future product demand may prove to be inaccurate; in which case the provision required for excess and obsolete inventory may have been understated or overstated. Although every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of internal forecasting, any significant changes in demand or prices could have a significant impact on the carrying value of our inventory and reported operating results. Demand for some of the items in our inventory has been impacted by recent economic conditions present in the cable industry. As of September 30, 2004, we have reduced inventories by recording an allowance for excess and obsolete inventories totaling $1,093,000. No addition to this allowance was recorded during the nine months ended June 30, 2005. An allowance of $656,000 was recorded during the nine months ended June 30, 2004 Accounts Receivable Valuation ----------------------------- Management judgments and estimates are made in connection with establishing the allowance for doubtful accounts. Specifically, we analyze the aging of accounts receivable balances, historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in our customer payment terms. Significant changes in customer concentration or payment terms, deterioration of customer creditworthiness, or weakening in economic trends could have a significant impact on the collectibility of receivables and our operating results. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. At June 30, 2005, accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $72,000, amounted to $5.3 million. Liquidity and Capital Resources We have a line of credit with the Bank of Oklahoma under which we are authorized to borrow up to $7 million at a borrowing rate based on the prevailing 30-day LIBOR rate plus 2.0% (5.3% at June 30, 2005.) This line of credit will provide the lesser of $7 million or the sum of 80% of qualified accounts receivable and 50% of qualified inventory in a revolving line of credit for working capital purposes. The line of credit is collateralized by inventory, accounts receivable, equipment and fixtures, and general intangibles and had an outstanding balance at June 30, 2005, of $1.9 million, due September 30, 2005. We intend to renew the agreement at the maturity date under similar terms. Cash decreased approximately $714,000 during the first nine months of fiscal 2005. During the first nine months of fiscal 2005, operating activities -13- provided approximately $2,305,000 of cash. Non-cash items included in net income provided approximately $138,000 of cash, and changes in receivables used approximately $523,000 of cash. Changes in inventories, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other assets used approximately $1,359,000 of cash. Cash used by investing activities was approximately $151,000 for property and equipment expenditures. Financing activities used approximately $1,328,000 to pay down the line of credit, approximately $928,000 for payments on notes payable, and $630,000 for payments of preferred dividends, while approximately $17,000 of cash was provided from the exercise of stock options. An $8 million amortizing term note with Bank of Oklahoma was obtained to finance the redemption of the outstanding shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at September 30, 2004. The outstanding balance on this note was $7.1 million at June 30, 2005. The note is due on September 30, 2009, with monthly principal payments of $100,000 plus accrued interest, and the note bears interest at the prevailing 30-day LIBOR rate plus 2.50%. An interest rate swap was entered into simultaneously with the note on September 30, 2004, which fixed the interest rate at 6.13%. Notes payable secured by real estate of $356,695 are due in monthly payments through 2013 with interest at 5.5% through 2008, converting thereafter to prime minus .25%. We finance our operations primarily through internally generated funds and the bank line of credit. Monthly payments of principal for notes payable and loans used to purchase buildings total $1.2 million in the next 12 months. We expect to fund these payments through cash flows from operations. Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements included in this report which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, estimates, assumptions and beliefs of management; and words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "projects," "estimates" and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the future prospects for our business, our ability to generate or to raise sufficient capital to allow it to make additional business acquisitions, changes or developments in the cable television business that could adversely affect our business or operations, the continued availability to us of our key management personnel, general economic conditions, the availability of new and used equipment and other inventory and our ability to fund the costs thereof, and other factors which may affect our ability to comply with future obligations. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk The Company's exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to its revolving line of credit. The interest rates under the line of credit fluctuate with the LIBOR rate. At June 30, 2005, the outstanding balances subject to variable interest rate fluctuations totaled $1.9 million. Future changes in interest rates could cause our borrowing costs to increase or decrease. The Company maintains no cash equivalents. However, the Company entered into an interest rate swap on September 30, 2004, in an amount equivalent to the $8 million notes payable in order to minimize interest rate risk. Although the note bears interest at the prevailing 30-day LIBOR rate plus 2.50%, the swap effectively fixed the interest rate at 6.13%. The fair value of this derivative, $81,143 at June 30, 2005, will increase or decrease opposite any future changes in interest rates. All sales and purchases are denominated in U.S. dollars. -14- Item 4.
