BUSINESS (a) General Development of Business Aydin Corporation (the "Company" or "Aydin") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in September, 1967. The Company consists of seven domestic operating divisions, organized as seven profit centers each with engineering, manufacturing, marketing and accounting functions, and three foreign subsidiaries. (b) Financial Information About Industry Segments The Company operates predominantly in the electronics manufacturing industry. Therefore, no segment information is reported. (c) Narrative Description of Business The following table sets forth the percentage of the Company's total revenue contributed by each of its three classes of products (among which overlapping does occur) for each of the last three years:
1993 1992 1991 (1) Communications 57% 54% 51% (2) Computer Equipment and Systems 42% 40% 36% (3) Radars, Radar Simulation & Electronic Warfare (EW) 1% 6% 13% Total 100% 100% 100%
As stated above, the Company operates predominantly in the electronics manufacturing industry, and all information set forth below is with respect to the Company's business as a whole. The Company designs, manufactures, and sells three classes of products as set forth above and as described below: (1) Communications The Company engineers, manufactures and sells a broad range of communications equipment and turnkey systems, offering three types of microwave transmission equipment - satellite, troposcatter and line-of-sight - in both analog and digital form. The Company is planning to develop products for wireless communications. The Company also offers telemetry, airborne and ground-based data acquisition, transmission and receiving equipment, data links, VHF and UHF transceivers, T-1 and E1 ADPCM 2:1 and 4:1 transcoders and echo cancellers, and avionics equipment and systems, and thick and thin film microcircuits. Aydin's products and systems are used in military and industrial applications. (2) Computer Equipment and Systems The Company designs and manufactures several lines of high resolution color monitors, including SPECTRUM AUTOSYNC(R) versions, Ranger monitors including table tops (in sizes ranging from 14 through 21 inches), and color display processors, and associated software for process control and other industrial applications. Aydin has a line of workstations, called the Model 7402, which integrates a gateway and a high performance workstation into a single package, with a RISC processor running at 61 MIPS. Aydin also has an X-terminal available for use with the workstation. Aydin offers computer systems, display processors, rugged monitors, large screen display systems and writes software for military ground or airborne environments and air traffic control applications. In addition, Aydin supplies network access equipment for cost effective access for voice data and video to public telephone networks. The Company also manufactures precision fabricated electronics cabinets, high quality printed circuit boards including multi-layer, and miscellaneous vinyl components. With the help of its low cost subsidiary in Turkey the Company is developing more standard software products and is bidding many software programs to expand its software capability. (3) Radars, Radar Simulation and EW Aydin has developed a state-of-the-art 3-D tactical air defense radar called ASTAR-3. For EW, Aydin manufactures radar simulations systems and has capabilities in self- protection ARM decoys, both ground and airborne. Aydin is bidding opportunities combining radar and EW technologies. One major contract under which Aydin is performing is the Multiple Threat Emitter Simulator Systems (MUTES) for the U.S. Air Force. (4) Command, Control and Communications (C3)/Air Defense Systems Aydin also offers complete, turnkey air defense/C3 systems, both fixed and mobile, utilizing its own mobile air defense 3-D radar, communications equipment including radios and multiplexers, air defense consoles, and air defense software. The Company's products and systems are sold directly by Company sales personnel and manufacturers' representatives. Sales personnel for the Company are located in many cities across the United States as well as at key major military bases, with corporate marketing located in the Washington, D.C. area. With respect to exports, sales efforts are conducted by its international subsidiaries, its international sales network and manufacturers' representatives in many countries. The Company maintains standard product lines and systems sold by catalogue, although it generally does not maintain an inventory of finished goods. A significant portion of current sales is attributable to such standard products, modifications thereof, and turnkey communications systems using these products. Another portion of sales is attributable to special, made-to-order equipment based on customer's specific requirements. The Company's customers include U.S. and foreign communications and electronic and aerospace firms, electric utilities, regulated and unregulated telephone organizations, major transportation organizations, other industrial and financial concerns and process control companies, research laboratories, universities, large defense contractors, foreign governments, the U.S. Government through various agencies of the Department of Defense, and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. A breakdown of sales for the last three years including sales to major customers who accounted for 10% or more of sales is as follows:
1993 1992 1991 U.S. Government Agencies (direct and indirect), principally Department of Defense (1) $ 38,600,000 $ 39,347,000 $ 65,360,000 Export and foreign sales including equipment sold to other U.S. companies for export (1) (2) (3) $ 78,532,000 $ 78,578,000 $ 67,534,000 U.S. commercial and industrial business $ 24,343,000 $ 27,296,000 $ 25,650,000 TOTAL NET SALES $141,475,000 $145,221,000 $158,544,000
(1) The U.S. Government and the Government of Turkey were the only customers to whom sales exceeded 10% of consolidated sales during any of the past three years. Sales to the Government of Turkey amounted to $45,134,000 in 1993, $48,738,000 in 1992 and $41,228,000 in 1991. (2) Includes foreign sales of $22,958,000 for 1993, $19,349,000 for 1992, and $17,850,000 for 1991. (3) A breakdown of total export and foreign sales by geographic area follows in section (d) below. Raw materials for the Company's business consist of manufactured components and parts. The Company's raw materials are presently available in adequate supply on the open market. The Company holds no material patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises or concessions. The Company's operations are not seasonal to any material extent. As stated above, although the Company maintains standard product lines and systems sold by catalogue, it generally does not maintain a significant level of finished goods inventory. However, the Company maintains an adequate level of raw materials inventory so that it will be able to meet initial delivery requirements of customers. The Company has had no material difficulty in obtaining goods from suppliers. The Company does not provide rights to return its products, and generally does not provide extended payment terms to customers. The backlog of unfilled orders at December 31, 1993 was $155 million as compared to $175 million at December 31, 1992. The backlog figures exclude probable production options of $58 million at the end of 1993 and $75 million at the end of 1992. Approximately 40% of the 1993 backlog is not reasonably expected to be fulfilled within the current year. The backlog includes approximately $81 million for a command, control and communications project for the Government of Turkey for which most of the work is to be done over the next two years. This contract was signed in June, 1990 and became effective in October, 1990. All contracts with the U.S. Government and some of the foreign governments are subject to cancellation at the convenience of the government. In the event a contract with the U.S. Government is so terminated, the Armed Services Procurement Regulations provide that the Company shall be reimbursed for expenses incurred and shall be entitled to reasonable profits. The greater portion of the Company's business is obtained by competitive bidding, while some is obtained through sole source negotiation. In the domestic marketplace, the Company competes with some major U.S. companies from time to time; however, some of the competition in the U.S. comes from companies which are similar in size or smaller than Aydin. In the international marketplace, Aydin competes with major European and Japanese companies in addition to U.S. firms. A number of such competitors are larger than Aydin with greater financial resources, while some are similar to or smaller than Aydin. Technical capability, reputation, price, ability to meet delivery schedules and reliability are the principal competitive factors. No single competitor offers the same range of products and systems as Aydin. Depending on the particular product itself and the requirements of the contract documents, the number of firms competing with Aydin generally ranges from one to ten. Estimated amounts spent during 1993, 1992, and 1991 on Company- sponsored research and development activities, and customer-sponsored research activities relating to the development of new products, services or techniques or the improvement of existing products, services or techniques are as follows:
1993 1992 1991 Company-sponsored research and development on direct cost basis $4,782,000 $5,275,000 $4,887,000 Customer-sponsored research and development activities $4,125,000 $5,943,000 $6,494,000
The Company along with others is responsible for the cost of cleanup at a site leased by the Company prior to 1984 under an order of the State of California. The cost to date for the cleanup of the California site over the past nine years has been approximately $5.4 million. Settlement has been reached with three of four insurance carriers for approximately $6.7 million which was received during 1993 and applied to the cleanup costs previously incurred and cost to go. The claim against the fourth insurance carrier is presently in litigation. A jury has ruled in Aydin's favor; however, a final decision by the court has not yet been rendered. Management believes the ultimate resolution of this entire matter will not have a materially adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations. The Company employs approximately 1,300 persons, with operations concentrated principally in the Philadelphia and San Jose areas. Employer-employee relations are considered to be satisfactory. (d) Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales The Company had no significant foreign operations prior to 1991 although a $216 million contract from the Government of Turkey became effective in October, 1990. Approximately 40% of this contract is being performed by the Company's Turkish subsidiary. Foreign assets included in the consolidated balance sheet amounted to $16.9 million, $23.4 million, and $26.1 million at December 31, 1993, 1992, and 1991 respectively. Of these amounts, $13.7 million, $19.1 million, and $21.1 million at December 31, 1993, 1992, and 1991 respectively, are assets of the Company's Turkish subsidiary and consist mainly of U.S. dollar denominated interest-bearing time deposits received as advance payments that will be used to complete a portion of the Company's contract with the Government of Turkey. Foreign sales and pretax income for 1993 amounted to $23.0 million and $3.9 million, respectively. Foreign sales and pretax income for 1992 amounted to $19.3 million and $3.3 million respectively. Foreign sales and pretax income for 1991 amounted to $17.8 million and $3.9 million respectively. The Company's domestic operations include sales derived from customers or projects located in areas of the world outside the United States. Export and foreign sales for 1993, 1992, and 1991 by geographic area are set forth below:
1993 1992 1991 Asia $ 8,688,000 $ 2,553,000 $ 1,168,000 Africa 2,301,000 1,969,000 1,296,000 Europe 59,426,000 68,980,000 56,114,000 North America 528,000 869,000 2,317,000 South America 6,745,000 3,901,000 5,847,000 Other 844,000 306,000 792,000 Total export sales $ 78,532,000 $ 78,578,000 $ 67,534,000
On a percentage basis, export and foreign sales (direct and indirect) accounted for approximately 56% of total sales in 1993, 54% in 1992, and 43% in 1991. A majority of such export and foreign sales were in the telecommunications field. Licenses are required from U.S. Government agencies for most of the Company's export products. The Company and its foreign subsidiaries may be adversely affected by certain risks generally associated with foreign contracts and operations, including ownership and control limitations, currency fluctuations, restrictions on repatriation of profits, difficulty in the enforcement of judgments, late delivery penalties, potential political or labor instability and general worldwide economic conditions. However, such factors have not had a material effect on the Company's operations to date, and management believes that the risks involved in such foreign business are no greater than the normal risks of any other portion of the Company's sales. The Company has generally been able to protect itself against foreign credit risks through contract provisions, advance payments and irrevocable letters of credit in its favor. However, it should be noted that foreign contracts are sometimes subject to foreign laws. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Company's total plant capacity is approximately 700,000 square feet of administrative and production facilities, 540,000 of which it owns and the balance of which it leases. Three owned properties totalling 192,000 square feet are subject to mortgages and six owned properties totalling 348,000 square feet are unencumbered. All major leased properties are held under leases expiring between 1994 and 1997, most with renewal options. The principal owned properties are two administrative/production facilities in Fort Washington, Pennsylvania, and five more in the Greater Philadelphia area, and one in the San Jose area. In addition, the Company maintains its corporate headquarters in Horsham, Pennsylvania, and numerous sales offices within and outside the U.S. The administrative and production facilities occupied by the Company are well maintained and suitable for its operations, and include plant area, warehouse space, and management, engineering and clerical offices. The plants of each of the manufacturing operations generally contain machine shops, assembly areas, testing facilities and packing and shipping departments in addition to the engineering and laboratory areas. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On January 6, 1994, pursuant to the terms of settlement with the Department of Justice, the Company entered a plea of guilty to the falsification of testing data, charges to which two of its low level employees previously pled guilty to in March 1993, and the plea was accepted by the court (U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California). The Company is reinstated on its AN/GRC-222 microwave radio contract with all of its previous terms and conditions. Further, the Company withdrew its contract claims, is doing additional work for the Army at no additional cost, and paid $2 million as an added consideration. The total impact on pretax income of this settlement was approximately $14,819,000, which has been charged to the 1993 fourth quarter earnings. The additional work and the related expenditures will be spread over a period of three years or longer. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS There were no matters submitted to a vote of security holders during the Fourth Quarter of 1993.

As used herein, the term "loss, cost, liability and expense" shall include, but shall not be limited to, counsel fees and disbursements and amounts of judgments, fines or penalties against, and amounts paid in settlement by, any such director, officer or employee; provided, however that no such director, officer or employee shall be entitled to claim such indemnity: (1) with respect to any matter as to which there shall have been a final adjudication that he has committed or allowed some act or omission, (a) otherwise than in good faith in what he considers to be the best interests of the corporation, and (b) without reasonable cause to believe that such act or omission was proper and legal; or (2) in the event of a settlement of such claim, action, suit, or proceeding unless (a) the court having jurisdiction thereof shall have approved of such settlement with knowledge of the indemnity provided herein, or (b) a written opinion of independent legal counsel, selected by or in manner determined by the Board of Directors, shall have been rendered substantially concurrently with such settlement, to the effect that it was not probable that the matter as to which indemnification is being made would have resulted in a final adjudication as specified in clause (1) above and that the said loss, cost, liability or expense may properly be borne by the corporation. A conviction or judgment (whether based on a plea of guilty or nolo contendere or its equivalent, or after trial) in a criminal action, suit or proceeding shall not be deemed an adjudication that such director, officer or employee has committed or allowed some act or omission as hereinabove provided if independent legal counsel, selected as hereinabove set forth, shall substantially concurrently with such conviction or judgement give to the corporation a written opinion that such director, officer or employee was acting in good faith in what he considered to be the best interests of the corporation or was not without reasonable cause to believe that such act or omission was proper and legal. (b) Directors, Officers and Employees of Subsidiaries. Every person (including a director, officer or employee of the corporation) who at the request of the corporation acts as a director, officer or employee of any other corporation in which the corporation owns shares of stock or of which it is a creditor shall be indemnified to the same extent and subject to the same conditions that the directors, officers, and employees of the corporation are indemnified under the preceding paragraph, except that the amount of such loss, cost, liability or expense paid to any such director, officer or employee shall be reduced by and to the extent of any amounts which may be collected by him from such other corporation. (c) Miscellaneous. The provisions of this section shall cover claims, actions, suits and proceedings, civil or criminal, whether now pending or hereafter commenced and shall be retroactive to cover acts or omissions or alleged acts or omissions which heretofore have taken place. In the event of death of any person having a right of indemnification under the provisions of this section, such right shall inure to the benefit of his heirs, executors, administrators and personal representatives. If any part of this section should be found to be invalid or ineffective in any proceeding, the validity and effect of the remaining provisions shall not be affected. (d) Indemnification Not Exclusive. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be deemed exclusive of any other right to which those indemnified may be entitled, and the corporation may provide additional indemnity and rights to its directors, officers or employees. ARTICLE VIII AMENDMENTS Section 1. These by-laws may be altered or repealed at any regular meeting of the stockholders or of the Board of Directors or at any special meeting of the stockholders or of the Board of Directors if notice of such alteration or repeal be contained in the notice of such special meeting.

See notes to consolidated financial statements. AYDIN CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE A--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and its 99%-owned Turkish subsidiary. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. During 1992 $800,000 of cash was invested in the Turkish subsidiary reflecting an ownership of 71% as of December 31, 1992 from 50% earlier. During 1993, $2.8 million of cash was invested to bring the ownership to 99%. Contract Accounting: Revenue on long-term type contracts in excess of $100,000 is recorded on the percentage-of-completion method. For such contracts, a portion of the total contract price is included in sales in the proportion that costs incurred to date bear to total estimated costs at completion. The impact of periodic revisions in costs and estimated profit is reflected in the accounting period in which the facts become known. For all other contracts, revenue is recognized upon completion of the contract or upon shipment of identifiable units. The entire amount of ultimate losses estimated to be incurred upon completion of contracts is charged to income when such losses become known. Contract progress billings are based upon contract provisions for customer advance payments, contract costs incurred, and completion of specified contract objectives. Contract billings for partial shipments where product title passes to the customer are not considered progress billings. Contracts may provide for customer retainage of a portion of amounts billed until contract completion. All contract retainage at December 31, 1993 matures in 1994. Claims from customers of approximately $1.0 million for work performed outside the scope of certain contracts for which the Company anticipates recovery are included in unbilled revenue at December 31, 1993. The comparable amount at December 31, 1992 was $3.8 million. Under the contract with the Government of Turkey, the Company received total advance payments of $56 million in October 1990 which were to be applied against future billings over the next six years. The contract provides for price escalation based on U.S. and Turkish inflation rates. Inventories: Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) and average cost method which approximates FIFO. Depreciation and Amortization: Depreciation is provided by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets. Amortization of leasehold improvements under operating leases is provided over the terms of the related leases or the asset lives, if shorter. Income Taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes on the liability method in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 109 which it adopted in 1991. Previously, the Company accounted for income taxes in accordance with FAS No. 96, which it adopted in 1987. The effect of the adoption of FAS No. 109 was not material. Foreign Currency Translation: In accordance with FAS No. 52, balance sheet accounts of the Company's United Kingdom subsidiary are translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars at year-end rates while income and expenses are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the year. The resulting translation gains or losses are shown as a separate component of stockholders' equity. The translation effects of all other non-U.S. subsidiaries are reflected in the income statement. Earnings (Loss) Per Share: Earnings (loss) per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of dilutive common stock options. The number of shares used in earnings (loss) per share calculations was 4,959,740 for 1993, 5,043,063 for 1992, and 5,071,978 for 1991. Statement of Cash Flows: The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Short-Term Investments: Short-term investments are carried at cost which approximates market. Short-term investments at December 31, 1993 consist of interest-bearing certificates of deposit and time deposits with initial terms of 3 to 12 months. The total includes $1.9 million held by the Company's Turkish subsidiary, all denominated in U.S. dollars. Cash and short term investments include $19.9 million held as collateral against outstanding letters of credit. NOTE B--INVENTORIES Inventories at December 31, 1993 and 1992 consist of:
1993 1992 Raw materials $ 8,549,000 $ 9,450,000 Work in process 6,036,000 8,512,000 Finished product 3,012,000 2,956,000 ___________ ___________ $17,597,000 $20,918,000

NOTE D--SHORT- AND LONG-TERM FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS The Company has annually renewable arrangements with certain banks whereby lines of credit aggregating $70,856,000 are available for letters of credit, including $14,000,000 which, alternatively, is available for short-term cash borrowings. An additional $14,900,000 is available for short-term borrowings only. These arrangements provide for interest on borrowings at rates ranging from LIBOR-based rates (generally below prime) to the prime lending rate (6.0% at December 31, 1993) plus 1/2%. These arrangements also require informal compensating cash balances averaging (on an annual basis) $475,000 (or equivalent fees) plus an additional amount up to 5% (maximum $725,000) of outstanding borrowings, and provide for commission rates on letters of credit at 1/2% to 1 1/8%. As of December 31, 1993 and 1992 there were $21,525,000 and $22,000,000 of borrowings under these lines, respectively. At December 31, 1993, $58,000,000 of letters of credit were outstanding under these arrangements. These have been issued to foreign entities, principally to guarantee either contract performance or the return of unearned advance payments in the unlikely event that performance is not in accordance with the contracts, or to foreign suppliers to guarantee payment to them of the amount due. Of the total amount outstanding, $42.5 million pertains to the Company's contract with the Government of Turkey. This letter of credit was issued pursuant to a Credit Agreement with certain banks. The term extends to October 4, 1996 or until the letter of credit is reduced to zero, whichever occurs first. Cash or short- term investment collateral is required to be maintained equal to 1/3 of the balance outstanding in the letter of credit which amounts to $14.2 million. In addition to certain covenant requirements, the Credit Agreement contains restrictions concerning the payment of dividends and purchase of treasury stock which in the aggregate are limited to 50% of net income for the prior four fiscal quarters. An additional letter of credit of $5.7 million pertaining to the Turkish contract has been issued by a Turkish bank for the Company's Turkish subsidiary. This letter of credit is not part of the Company's line of credit. Cash or short-term investment collateral is required to be maintained by the Turkish subsidiary equal to 100% of the balance outstanding on this letter of credit. NOTE E--LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt at December 31, 1993 and 1992 consists of the following:

NOTE G--STOCK OPTIONS Pursuant to stock option plans, the Company has granted certain officers, directors, and key employees options to purchase shares of its common stock. Options granted under the plans must have an option price determined by the Board of Directors, but in any event, not less than the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant except for the 1984 plan of 187,500 shares which permits the Board of Directors to set an option price up to 50% less than the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. Generally, options become exercisable one-fourth annually beginning one year after grant, on a cumulative basis, and expire five years after grant. There is no charge to income with respect to stock options under the plans. A summary of the changes in options during 1991, 1992, and 1993 follows:

The Company has not provided deferred income taxes of approximately $600,000 on cumulative unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries, based on management's intention to permanently invest such earnings in the foreign jurisdictions. NOTE I--EXPORT SALES, MAJOR CUSTOMERS, AND FOREIGN OPERATIONS The Company operates predominantly in the electronics manufacturing industry. Export sales by geographic area are as follows:

The U.S. Government and the Government of Turkey were the only customers to whom sales exceeded 10% of consolidated sales during any of the past three years. Sales to U.S. Government agencies, principally the Department of Defense, amounted to $38,600,000, $39,347,000 and $65,360,000 in 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. Sales to the Government of Turkey amounted to $45,134,000 in 1993, $48,738,000 in 1992 and $41,228,000 in 1991. Foreign assets included in the consolidated balance sheet amounted to $16.9 million, $23.4 million and $26.1 million at December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively. Of these amounts, $13.7 million, $19.1 million and $21.1 million, at December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively, are assets of the Company's Turkish subsidiary and consist mainly of U.S. dollar denominated interest-bearing time deposits that will be used to complete a portion of the Company's contract with the Government of Turkey. Foreign sales and pretax income for 1993 amounted to $23.0 million and $3.9 million, respectively. Foreign sales and pretax income for 1992 amounted to $19.3 million and $3.3 million, respectively. Foreign sales and pretax income for 1991 amounted to $17.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively. NOTE J--CONTINGENCIES The Company along with others is responsible for the cost of cleanup at a site leased by the Company prior to 1984 under an order of the State of California. The cost to date for the cleanup of the California site over the past nine years has been approximately $5.4 million. Settlement has been reached with three of four insurance carriers for approximately $6.7 million which was received during 1993 and applied to the cleanup costs previously incurred and cost to go. The claim against the fourth insurance carrier is presently in litigation. A jury has ruled in Aydin's favor, however, a final decision by the court has not yet been rendered. Management believes the ultimate resolution of this entire matter will not have a materially adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations. The IRS, as part of a field examination, has disallowed certain prior years research and development tax credits taken by the Company amounting to approximately $3.5 million plus related interest. The Company is challenging this finding with the appeals office of the IRS. Management is of the opinion that the ultimate resolution will not have a materially adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations. NOTE K - SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE On January 5, 1994, the Company reached settlement agreements with the U.S. Army and the Department of Justice ("DOJ") with reference to the AN/GRC-222 microwave radio contract. Under the terms of the agreement, the U.S. Army will reinstate the radio contract by withdrawing its previous termination for default issued November 30, 1993. Further, the investigation and all possible charges against the Company by the DOJ are settled. On January 6, 1994, pursuant to the terms of settlement with DOJ, the Company entered a plea of guilty to the falsification of testing data, charges to which two of its low level employees previously pled guilty to in March 1993, and the plea was accepted by the court (U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California). The Company is reinstated on its AN/GRC-222 microwave radio contract with all of its previous terms and conditions. Further, the Company withdrew its contract claims, is doing additional work for the Army at no additional cost, and paid $2 million as an added consideration. The total impact on pretax income of this settlement was approximately $14,819,000, which has been charged to the 1993 fourth quarter earnings. The additional work and the related expenditures will be spread over a period of three years or longer. REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS Stockholders and Board of Directors Aydin Corporation We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Aydin Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1993. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Aydin Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ KPMG Peat Marwick Philadelphia, Pennsylvania February 25, 1994 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Sources of Capital Cash used by operations during 1993 was $7.0 million. The primary reasons for the cash outflow included: (1) a $7.5 million increase in unbilled revenue mainly because of costs incurred and resulting revenue recognized on the TMRC-C3 contract with the Government of Turkey in excess of billings rendered; and (2) a $7.9 million increase in accounts receivable primarily because of the commencement in 1993 of billings on the TMRC-C3 contract especially in the fourth quarter, offset partially by $4.0 million of cash received in settlement of insurance litigation related to environmental matters. Partially offsetting these cash outflows was a $3.3 million decline in inventories and $4.5 million of depreciation. Also during 1993, $2.4 million was spent for capital additions and $2.8 million was spent to increase the ownership in the Turkish subsidiary from 71% at December 31, 1992 to over 99% at December 31, 1993. Of the $24.9 million balance of cash and short-term investments at December 31, 1993, approximately $19.9 million is required to be maintained as collateral against letters of credit on the Turkish contract. Cash used by operations during 1992 was $29.6 million and short-term borrowings increased by $22.0 million primarily because of costs incurred on the TMRC-C3 contract with the Government of Turkey. An advance payment of $56.0 million was received in 1990 on this contract with further billings not scheduled to commence until early 1993. The aforementioned costs incurred and resulting revenue recognized are the reasons for the $41.4 million increase from 1991 of unbilled revenue net of advance payments (received) and contract billings in excess of recognized revenue. Accounts payable increased by $8.8 million primarily because of subcontracts placed on the TMRC-C3 contract. Also during 1992, $1.4 million was spent for capital additions and a $2.5 million cash dividend was paid. Further cash dividends are not planned for 1993. Also, the aggregate of future cash dividends and stock repurchases are limited to 50% of net income under the terms of the letters of credit agreement against the Turkish contract advance payment. Based on the present backlog and projected cash flows, the Company anticipates financing its capital needs from internal sources and from short-term borrowings in the foreseeable future. The backlog declined to approximately $155.0 million at December 31, 1993 from $175.0 million at year end 1992. At December 31, 1993 the Company had short-term borrowing arrangements of $29.0 million, of which $21.5 million had been used. These lines may be reduced if the Company has to issue letters of credit for performance guarantees in foreign countries. Results of Operations 1993 versus 1992: Net sales of $141,475,000 for 1993 decreased by $3,746,000 from 1992, a decline of 3%. Industrial sales declined to 17% of total sales from 19% last year due to continued market weakness in the Company's market niches. U.S. Government sales declined slightly and were offset by a small increase in export and foreign sales which now represent 56% of total sales versus 54% last year. The $14,819,000 1993 special settlement charge included in the cost of sales caption is the result of the Company's decision to assume responsibility and plead guilty to criminal charges of falsification of test data on a U.S. Government contract (GRC-222), actions to which two low level employees had previously pled guilty. Of this charge, $2.0 million were cash payments made after December 31, 1993. The balance represents additional work and to upgrade the GRC-222 microwave radios for the U.S. Army and Aydin's dropping of claims it had filed against the Army. Other cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased to 73.3% from 69.9% last year as a result of a more competitive U.S. Government business environment in 1993, a more favorable sales mix in 1992 and cost overruns on certain contracts in 1993. Selling, general and administrative expenses declined by $2,212,000 from 1992 because of cost reductions necessitated by the declines in sales and backlog. Net interest expense was $273,000 in 1993 compared to last year's net interest income of $1,177,000. The unfavorable swing reflects the higher level of this year's short-term borrowings and a decreased level of cash available for investment this year. The effective income tax rate decreased to 34% for 1993 from 36% last year. The primary reason for the lower 1993 income tax rate is a function of a pretax loss in the U.S. in 1993 which means that the following elements of tax reduced the effective rate: foreign income tax provisions, non-deductible costs in connection with the Department of Justice settlement, and the impact on deferred taxes of the increased U.S. statutory rate effective January 1, 1994. Partially offsetting these effects was the tax benefit from non-taxable Foreign Sales Corporation income and a higher state income tax recovery on the 1993 U.S. pretax loss than the 1992 state income tax provision. See Note H for the impact of each of these items. 1992 versus 1991: Net sales of $145,221,000 for 1992 decreased by $13,323,000 from 1991, a decline of 8%. U.S. Government sales declined to 27% of total sales from 41% last year as a result of lower U.S. Government military spending. Export and foreign sales rose to 54% of total sales from 43% last year, and industrial sales rose slightly from last year. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales improved to 69.9% from 70.2% last year as a result of a more favorable sales mix in 1992. Interest income, net of interest expense, declined by $2,471,000 from 1991 because of a lower level of short-term investments, lower interest rates, and a higher level of short-term borrowings. The income tax provision as a percentage of pretax income increased to 36% for 1992 from 27% in 1991 primarily as a result of higher foreign income tax rates during 1992 than in 1991. Minority interest was $761,000 in 1992 as compared to $1,687,000 last year. The decrease reflects lower net income of the Turkish subsidiary which resulted primarily from the aforementioned higher foreign income taxes, and also an increased investment in the ownership of the Turkish subsidiary as explained in Note A.
