Explanatory Note

 

The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A is to amend our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2003 (the “Original Filing”), which was filed on March 29, 2004. In March 2005, EXX’s management reviewed the allocation of the purchase price in connection with its acquisition of Newcor, Inc. and determined that an additional intangible asset of $3,635,000 relating to customer relationships existed at the purchase date and had not been previously recorded. The intangible asset is being amortized over a five year period commencing on the date of purchase. In connection with this determination, this Amendment No. 1 amends (1) Item 6. Selected Financial Data to update the net income, per share data, book value, total assets, and stockholders’ equity information, (2) Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations to (a) update the 2003 comparison to 2002 as relates to the selling, general and administrative expenses, operating income and net income sections to reflect an amortization charge for certain intangible assets, (b) a further discussion in the Liquidity and Sources of Capital section to reflect these amortization changes, (c) a table summarizing EXX’s contractual cash debt repayment obligations at December 31, 2003 which is being added for clarification, and (d) an additional explanation in the Critical Accounting Policies of an explanation of EXX’s handling of Intangible Assets, and (3) Item 8. Financial Statements which reflects all the changes described above and shows revenue by major product group sold by the operating segments as shown in Footnote 14.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Please refer to the Forward-Looking Statements and Cautionary Statements at the beginning of this 10-K Report.

 

Due to the factors noted in the Forward-Looking Statements paragraph and elsewhere in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, our future earnings and stock price may be subject to significant volatility, particularly on a quarterly basis. This could result in an immediate and adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock. Past financial performance should not be considered a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods.

In January 2003, under the Newcor, Inc. Plan of Reorganization, EXX purchased 11,877 shares or 98.975% of the outstanding common stock of the reorganized Newcor for approximately $5,939,000. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements which further discusses this event.

 

In prior periods, both Newcor and EXX have referred to an impending loss of a supply contract with a major customer. A press release and Form 8-K dated October 3, 2003 announced the signing of a new three year supply contract with that customer with certain reductions in prices and volume offset by certain additional benefits to other Newcor units dealing with the customer’s affiliates. In 2004, it is expected that the new contract will result in a revenue reduction of approximately $9,000,000 in the Mechanical Equipment Segment which amount may be offset by increases in new business for the year from such customer.

 

2003 Compared to 2002

 

Net sales in 2003 were $135,474,000 compared to $16,186,000 in 2002 which was an increase of $119,288,000. Net sales represent a 737% increase from the prior year sales, due to the acquisition of Newcor. The Mechanical Equipment segment had total sales of $112,187,000 in 2003 compared to $8,299,000 in 2002, an increase of $103,888,000. The current year sales represent a 1,252% increase from the prior year sales due to the acquisition of Newcor. The Plastics and Rubber segment sales were $23,287,000 in 2003 compared to $7,887,000 in 2002, an increase of $15,400,000. The current year’s sales represent a 195% increase from the prior year sales due to the acquisition of Newcor. Excluding the effect of the Newcor acquisition, net sales in 2003 were $16,000,000 the Mechanical Equipment segment sales in 2003 were $8,298,000 and the Plastics and Rubber segment sales in 2003 were $7,702,000.

 

Gross profit was $25,126,000 in 2003 compared to gross profit of $5,253,000 in 2002, an increase of $19,873,000 due to the acquisition of Newcor. The Mechanical Equipment segment accounted for a $16,101,000 increase in gross profit while the Plastics and Rubber segment accounted for the difference due to the acquisition of Newcor. Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 19% in 2003 compared to 32% in 2002. Excluding the effect of the Newcor acquisition, gross profit in 2003 was $5,374,000, Mechanical Equipment Segment gross profit was $2,852,000 and the Plastics and Rubber segment gross profit was $2,522,000.

 

Selling and G&A expenses were $15,107,000 in 2003, an increase of $11,009,000 from $4,098,000 in 2002. The increase related to the acquisition of Newcor, including a $655,000 amortization charge of the customer relationships balance on Newcor’s books. Excluding the effect of the Newcor acquisition, in 2003 selling and G&A expenses were $4,137,000.

 

Operating income of $10,019,000 in 2003 represented an increase of $8,864,000 from the prior year’s operating income of $1,155,000 due to the acquisition of Newcor, including a $655,000 amortization charge of the customer relationships balance on Newcor’s books. The Mechanical Equipment segment generated operating income of $9,933,000 in 2003, an increase of $9,470,000 from an operating income of $463,000 in 2002, while the Plastics and Rubber segment operating income of $3,001,000 in 2003 represented an increase of $1,767,000 from an operating income of $1,234,000 in 2002, both increases due to the acquisition of Newcor. Corporate and other operating expenses in 2003 increased to $2,414,000 from $542,000 in the prior year due to the acquisition of Newcor, including a $655,000 amortization charge of the customer relationships balance on Newcor’s books. Excluding the effect of the Newcor acquisition, operating income in 2003 was $938,000. The Mechanical Equipment segment in 2003 was $665,000, the Plastics and Rubber segment in 2003 was $1,002,000 and corporate and other operating expenses in 2003 were $729,000.

 

Interest expense was $2,149,000 in 2003 compared to $144,000 in 2002 due to the acquisition of Newcor. Excluding the effect of the Newcor acquisition, interest expense in 2003 was $106,000.

 

EXX generated net income of $5,817,000 or $.52 per A & B common share compared to a net income of $836,000 or $.07 per A & B common share in 2002. Excluding the effect of the Newcor acquisition, net income in 2003 was $802,000 or $.07 per A & B common share. There was no equity in losses of Newcor, Inc. in 2002 as the original investment was written off completely in 2001.

 

EXX reported a deferred tax asset of $1,511,000 at December 31, 2003 and a deferred tax asset of $564,000 at December 31, 2002. Management believes this asset will be realized by taxable earnings in the future.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

 

During 2003, EXX generated $11,723,000 of cash flows from operating activities compared to $566,000 in 2002. In 2003, cash flow of $15,473,000 was provided from income before depreciation and amortization and deferred income taxes compared to $1,017,000 in 2002. The increase in cash flow in 2003 was principally due to the operations of Newcor. In 2003, cash flows of $2,416,000 were used to fund Newcor’s pension obligations as well as $5,325,000 to decrease accounts payable and other current liabilities which included accruals for administrative expenses associated with Newcor’s bankruptcy Filing and Plan of Reorganization. In 2003, operating cash flows increased $3,884,000 as a result of lower accounts receivable compared to a decrease of $320,000 in 2002 as a result of an increase in accounts receivable.

 

In 2003, EXX’s investing activities used cash of $1,743,000 compared to using cash of $29,000 in 2002. In 2003, cash was used primarily to purchase property and equipment totaling $5,228,000 offset by $2,550,000 of proceeds from the sale of net assets of a Newcor subsidiary and $935,000 of cash acquired from the acquisition of Newcor, while cash was used primarily to purchase property and equipment in 2002.

 

During 2003 and 2002, EXX’s financing activities used cash of $7,813,000 and $270,000, respectively. In 2003, EXX paid off $10,462,000 of long-term debt and obtained $2,588,000 from equipment financing and term loans. In addition, Newcor received $61,000 from the sale to minority shareholders of its new stock. While in 2002, EXX purchased $203,000 of treasury stock and made payments on notes totaling $67,000.

(a) Payments of these notes and capital lease obligations are shown as current since the subsidiary is unable to make the requirements due to a lack of cash flow.

 

At the end of 2003, EXX had working capital of approximately $26,464,000 and a current ratio of 2.4 to 1. At the end of 2002, EXX had working capital of $12,117,000 and a current ratio of 3.9 to 1.

 

In January 2003, under the Newcor, Inc. Plan of Reorganization, EXX purchased 11,877 shares or 98.975% of the outstanding common stock of the reorganized Newcor for approximately $5,939,000. See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of this event.

 

EXX considers its cash and cash equivalents of $12,056,000 together with its Newcor subsidiary’s line of credit of $6,000,000 to be adequate for its current operating needs.

 

EXX has no present plans that will require material capital expenditures for any of EXX’s businesses. Capital expenditures are expected to be in the ordinary course of business and financed by cash generated from operations.

 

EXX believes the effects of inflation will not have a material effect on its future operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We have prepared our financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This has required us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affected the amounts we reported. Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contains the significant accounting principles that we used to prepare our consolidated financial statements.

 

We have identified a few critical accounting policies that required us to make assumptions about matters that were uncertain at the time of our estimates. Had we used different estimates and assumptions, the amounts we recorded could have been significantly different. Additionally, actual results that would have a material effect on our accounting policies that were affected by the estimates, assumptions, and judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements are listed below.

 

Inventories. Certain of our inventories are valued at the lower of cost, on the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method, or market. The remainder of our inventories is valued at the lower of cost, on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method, or market. We periodically assess this inventory for obsolescence and potential excess by reducing the difference between our cost and the estimated market value of the inventory based on assumptions about future demand and historical sales patterns. If market conditions or future demand are less favorable than our current expectations, additional inventory write downs or reserves may be required, which could have an adverse effect on our reported results in the period the adjustments are made.

 

Income Taxes. We comply with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax bases of recorded assets and liabilities. SFAS 109 also requires a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. We have determined that it is more likely than not that our future taxable income will be sufficient to realize our deferred tax assets.

 

Intangible Assets. Intangible Assets are being amortized over their estimated useful or economical lives and include provisions for patents, customer lists and customer relationships. Please see Footnote 2 for a further explanation.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

EXX INC

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of EXX INC and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2003. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 EXX INC and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

In connection with our audits of the financial statements referred to above, we audited the financial statement schedule listed in accompanying index. In our opinion, the financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information stated therein.

 

As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, management of the Company determined that an amortizable intangible asset had been omitted in the 2003 financial statements resulting in an understatement of amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2003. Accordingly, the 2003 financial statements have been restated to give effect to this change.

EXX INC AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Nature of operations

 

EXX INC and Subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”) operate primarily in the mechanical equipment industry and the plastics and rubber industry. The Company’s operations primarily involve the design and manufacturing of precision machined components and assemblies and custom rubber and plastic products primarily for the automotive and agricultural vehicle markets. Operations in the mechanical equipment industry also involve the design, assembly and sale of capital goods, such as electric motors and cable pressurization equipment. Operations in the plastics and rubber industry also include the importation and sale of impulse toys. The Company’s mechanical equipment products are incorporated into customers’ products or are used to maintain customers’ equipment.

 

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EXX INC and its wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenues when goods are shipped and title passes to customers. Provisions are established, as appropriate, for uncollectible accounts, returns and allowances and warranties in connection with sales.

 

One subsidiary of the Company records profit or losses on its contracts to build mechanical equipment on the completed contract method. Under that method, billings (including estimates of amounts billable for work already performed) and costs are accumulated during period of fabrication, but no profits are recorded before completion of the mechanical equipment.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly-liquid debt instruments purchased with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2003, and at various times during the year, balances of cash at financial institutions exceeded the federally insured limit. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not subject to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company carries its accounts receivable at cost less an allowance for doubtful accounts. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates its accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts, based on a history of past write-offs and collections and current credit conditions. Accounts are written off as uncollectible if payments are not expected to be received.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 107, “Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” approximate the carrying amounts presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

EXX INC AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

 

Inventories

 

Certain inventories are valued at the lower of cost, on the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method, or market. The remainder of the inventories are valued at the lower of cost, on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method, or market.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company periodically assesses the recoverability of the carrying amounts of long-lived assets. A loss is recognized when expected undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset. The impairment loss is the difference by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated or amortized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

 

Buildings and improvements

   15 - 25 years

Machinery and equipment

     3 - 20 years

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations, while betterments and improvements are capitalized.

Advertising costs are charged to operations as incurred and were $75,000, $29,000 and $59,000 for 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Expenditures for research and development are charged to operations as incurred and were $233,000, $280,000 and $193,000 for 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

 

Goodwill

 

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill is not amortized but as required, the Company performs annual testing for impairment (comparison of estimated fair value to carrying value). Several factors are used to evaluate the recoverability of goodwill, including management’s plans for future operations, recent operating results and each division’s projected undiscounted cash flows.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful or economic lives using the straight-line method as follows:

 

Patents

   10 years

Customer lists

     3 years

Customer relationships

     5 years

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company complies with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires an asset and liability approach to financial reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Income tax benefits recognized from the deduction of goodwill are used to reduce the carrying value of goodwill in the financial statements as they are realized. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

Income Per Common Share

 

SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”, requires dual presentation of basic and diluted income per share for all periods presented. Basic income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the income of the Company.

 

Unexercised stock options to purchase 2,150,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company follows SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” The provisions of SFAS No. 123 allow companies to either expense the estimated fair value of stock options or to continue to follow the intrinsic value method set forth in APB Opinion 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”) but disclose the pro forma effect on net income (loss) had the fair value of the options been expensed. The Company has elected to continue to apply APB 25 in accounting for its stock option incentive plans.

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Reclassification

 

Certain 2002 and 2001 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2003 presentation.

 

3. Acquisition of Newcor, Inc.

 

In July 2001, the Company purchased an additional 679,994 shares of Newcor Inc. (“Newcor”) common stock and $500,000 principal amount of Newcor’s 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008, from five of the former directors of Newcor and 24,000 shares from David A. Segal (the Company’s Chairman). In connection with such purchases, the Company paid an aggregate of $1,679,000 in cash. Prior to the Company’s acquisition of these additional shares, the Company accounted for its investment in Newcor as an available for sale marketable security. The changes in the market value of the Newcor shares were recorded as comprehensive income in each applicable period. The additional acquisition increased the Company’s ownership percentage in Newcor to approximately 31%, thereby requiring the Company to use the equity method of accounting for this investment in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 18, “The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock.” As of December 31, 2002, the Company owned approximately 1,546,000 shares of the outstanding common stock of Newcor and based on its equity in the losses of Newcor, the Company reduced its investment (including subordinated notes) in Newcor to zero. In February 2002, Newcor filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Act. As a result of the reorganization plan approved by the creditors, these shares were of no value at December 31, 2002 and were effectively cancelled via the reorganization.

 

On January 31, 2003, the Plan of Reorganization of Newcor became effective and under a rights offering to stockholders, the Company purchased 11,877 shares of common stock of Newcor for a total purchase price of $5,939,000. The shares purchased by the Company constitute 98.975% of the outstanding common stock of the reorganized Newcor entity and, as a result, Newcor ceased to be a stand-alone public reporting company and became a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. The purchase price was established in the Plan of Reorganization, as approved by the creditors, the United States Trustee for the District of Delaware and the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. The source of funds for the Company’s purchase was cash on hand. In addition to the purchase made by the Company, certain former stockholders of Newcor, purchased shares of common stock of Newcor under the rights offering. The former stockholders purchased an aggregate of 123 shares totaling $61,000 which represented 1.025%, of the aggregate purchase price and are accounted for as a minority interest in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The primary purpose of the acquisition of Newcor was to expand the Company’s operations. Newcor designs and manufactures precision machine components and assemblies, machine tools and custom rubber and plastic products primarily for the automotive and agricultural vehicle markets. Newcor is also a supplier of standard and specialty machines and equipment systems principally for the automotive and appliance industries.

     16,819,000
    

Total liabilities

   $ 91,172,000
    

 

Intangible assets include goodwill of approximately $14,592,000 and approximately $5,920,000 allocated to customer lists, customer relationships and patents which will be amortized over periods ranging from 3 to 10 years. Goodwill was reduced by $1,899,000 to give effect to the tax benefit derived from the amortization of goodwill for income tax purposes for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

In March 2005 the Company’s management reviewed the allocation of purchase price to Newcor’s assets and determined that an additional intangible asset of $3,635,000 relating to customer relationships existed at the purchase date which had not been previously recorded. The intangible asset will be amortized over a five year period commencing with the date of purchase. The consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2003 and for the year then ended have been restated to give affect to this adjustment. The restatement resulted in the adjustment to the amounts previously reported, as follows.

 

  a) Goodwill was decreased by $2,248,000.

 

  b) Intangible assets were increased by $2,960,000 net of accumulated amortization of $665,000.

 

  c) Deferred tax liability was increased by $1,124,000.

 

  d) Minority interest decreased by $5,000.

 

  e) Income from continuing operations, net income and retained earnings were reduced by $407,000 or by $.04 per basic share and $.03 per diluted share to give effect to eleven months of amortization net of tax effect.

Since the net assets of the subsidiary were recorded at their fair market value as a result of purchase accounting adjustments, no gain was recognized on the sale. The net sales and pretax income of the subsidiary for the year ended December 31, 2003 prior to the disposition date were $8,024,000 and $872,000, respectively.

8. Long-term debt (continued)

 

(a) As of January 31, 2003, Newcor and its subsidiaries entered into a three-year credit facility of approximately $23,000,000 with a financial institution which included a revolving credit line and the term note (the “Credit Agreement”). The revolver borrowing availability was based on a percentage of accounts receivable and inventory balances less certain reserves as specified in the Credit Agreement. Interest on the borrowings was .75% over the prime-lending rate. The prime rate at December 31, 2003 was 4.0%. To the extent that the borrower had cash on hand with the financial institution, interest on the borrowings was not incurred. The term loan required payments based on a five-year amortization period with a balloon payment due upon termination of the facility on January 31, 2006. At December 31, 2003, there was no balance outstanding on the revolving credit line.

 

On February 22, 2004, the Credit Agreement was terminated by Newcor and a new bank facility (the “2004 Credit Agreement”) was entered into with National City Bank. The 2004 Credit Agreement allows for $6,000,000 of available borrowings with reducing availability based upon an equal monthly amortization over three years, secured by the machinery and equipment owned by Newcor and its subsidiaries, except the machinery and equipment securing the $4,407,000 of equipment notes.

 

(b) Newcor and its subsidiaries entered into an agreement with various unsecured debtors as a result of the Plan of Reorganization (the “Unsecured Notes”). The Unsecured Notes bear interest at 6% in the first 5 years and 7% in the last five years of these ten-year notes. Annual amortization is based on excess cash flow as defined in the indenture but is generally calculated as earnings before income taxes plus depreciation and amortization less capital expenditures up to a maximum of $5,000,000, less cash paid for taxes, less term debt reductions. The balance remaining after amortization based on the excess cash flow is due upon maturity of the notes on January 31, 2013. No principal payment was required on the Unsecured Notes for the year ended December 31, 2003.

 

(c) At December 31, 2003, these notes and the capital lease obligation were in default and accordingly have been classified as currently due.

11. Pension plans and post retirement benefits, other than pensions

 

The Company provides retirement benefits for certain employees under several defined benefit pension plans. Benefits from these plans are based on compensation, years of service and either fixed dollar amounts per years of service or employee compensation during the later years of employment. The assets of the pension plans consist principally of cash equivalents, corporate and government bonds, and common and preferred stocks.

 

The Company’s funding policy is to contribute annually at least the minimum amount required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Effective January 1, 1988 one of the plans was curtailed through an amendment to freeze benefits and future participation. Effective December 31, 2003 most of the benefits under the largest plan were curtailed through an amendment to freeze benefits and future participation for most employees.

The Company expects to contribute $652,000 to its pension plans during the year ended December 31, 2004.

 

Newcor is obligated to provide health care and life insurance benefits to certain eligible retired employees. However, all post retirement benefits, other than pensions, were discontinued for all employees who retired after January 1, 1993. This plan obligation is unfunded but the accumulated post retirement benefit obligation, as actuarially determined, has been fully accrued for in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The medical plan pays a stated percentage of most medical expenses, reduced for any deductible and payments made by government programs or other group coverage. The cost of providing these benefits is shared with the retirees. The cost sharing arrangements limit Newcor’s future retiree medical cost increases to the rate of inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price index.

12. Stock options

 

During 1994, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted, and the stockholders approved, the 1994 stock option plan (the Plan) pursuant to which 5,000,000 shares of Class A common stock were reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options granted to officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company. Options under the Plan may be incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, or any combination thereof, and the Board of Directors (Committee) may grant options at an exercise price which is not less than the fair market value on the date such options are granted. The Plan further provides that the maximum period in which stock options may be exercised will be determined by the Committee, except that they may not be exercisable after ten years from the date of grant. Unless previously terminated, the Plan shall terminate in October 2004. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, options to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Class A common stock were available for grant under the Plan.

 

The status of the Company’s stock options are summarized below:

In addition to the options issued as a performance award to the CEO in (b) above in 2003, the Board of Directors approved and the shareholders ratified the issuance of 250,000 shares of Class B common stock to the CEO. The Company recorded compensation expense of $192,000 for these shares in the year ended December 31, 2003.
