AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION JUNE 30, 1997 NOTES - ----- (1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: ------------------------------------------- Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior years' amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 1997 classification. (2) Debt: ----- Long-term debt as of June 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996 consisted of:
June 30 Sept. 30 1997 1996 ---- ---- ($000 Omitted) Variable Rate Industrial Development Demand Revenue Improvement and Refunding Bonds $ 2,000 $ 2,300 Note payable to bank, due in quarterly installments of $214,000, at the base rate 5,786 2,375 Note payable to bank, due October 31, 1997, interest payable quarterly, at rates based upon LIBOR and DIBOR 1,000 1,000 Note payable to seller of acquired business at the base rate plus 1/2% 1,000 1,000 Note payable under revolving credit agreement, at the base rate 3,100 6,400 ------- ------- $12,886 $13,075 Less - current maturities 2,256 2,500 ------- ------- $10,630 $10,575 ======= =======
5 7 The Company has a $9 million revolving credit agreement subject to eligible working capital as defined, which expires March 31, 1999. As of June 30, 1997 the Company had $3.1 million outstanding under this agreement. In addition, the Company has a $1.15 million credit capacity which is used for an irrevocable letter of credit which secured the $1 million loan from an Irish bank due October 31, 1997. A commitment fee of 3/8% is incurred on the remaining unused balance. Interest is at the base rate and is payable quarterly. The average balance outstanding against the revolving credit was $5.3 million and $5.0 million and during the nine month period of fiscal 1997 and 1996, respectively. The balances outstanding under this credit agreement have been classified as long term debt. The Industrial Development bond interest rate is reset weekly, based on prevailing tax-exempt money market rates, and is payable quarterly. Principal is payable in quarterly installments of $75,000 through May 1, 1996, becoming $100,000 quarterly thereafter, with the final balance due on May 1, 2002. The bonds are secured by the property and equipment of the facility, and backed by an irrevocable bank letter of credit which expires on May 1, 1998. The revolving credit, term loan and Industrial Development bonds are secured by the Company's domestic accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. Among other covenants, the Company is required to maintain a minimum tangible net worth (as defined) of $19.8 million, increasing by 50% of net income subsequent to September 30, 1993. At June 30, 1997, tangible net worth exceeded the required minimum by $7.8 million. As part of a previous acquisition, the seller provided financing in the form of unsecured installment notes. These notes bear interest at the base rate plus 1/2%, payable and adjustable quarterly. The final principal payment of approximately $1 million is due July 1, 1997. The $1 million note payable revolving to the bank has a variable interest rate based on a combination of both LIBOR and DIBOR (Dublin Interbank Rates) rates. (3) Income Taxes: ------------- The provision for taxes on income, which is based on the anticipated effective rate for the year, does not bear the customary relationship to pre-tax income due primarily to foreign source income and net loss carry forward. Income tax expense differs from amounts currently payable due to certain items reported for financial statement purposes in periods which differ from those in which they are reported for tax purposes, principally accelerated depreciation. (4) Deferred Federal Income Taxes: ------------------------------ The Company has deferred to future periods the income taxes relating to timing differences between financial statement pre-tax income and taxable income. 6 8 5) Depreciation: ------------- For financial reporting purposes, the Company provides for depreciation of plant and equipment, principally by the straight-line method, at annual rates sufficient to amortize the cost over its estimated useful life. For tax purposes, the Company uses various accelerated methods and, accordingly, provides for the related deferred taxes. The principal rates of depreciation for financial reporting purposes are: buildings 2% to 5%, and machinery and equipment 5% to 33-1/3%. (6) Inventories: ------------ The Company follows the LIFO method of accounting for certain of its Forge Group inventories. Since the LIFO inventory determination for fiscal 1997 will be based upon year-end inventory levels and costs, the Company has provided for its anticipated "LIFO Adjustment" based on its estimated year-end inventory levels and costs. Under the Average Cost Method, inventories would have been $3,920,000 and $3,570,000 higher than reported at June 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996, respectively. (7) Other Income: ------------- Other income is comprised primarily of grant income from Irish government agencies, foreign exchange gains and losses, and royalty and fee income. (8) Earnings Per Share: ------------------- In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 128 on "Earnings Per Share." SFAS 128 will change the manner in which earnings per share is computed effective in fiscal year 1998 and applied retroactively. Management's preliminary estimates are that adoption of SFAS 128 will not have a material impact on earnings per share as previously reported under the earlier accounting standard. (9) Basis of Presentation and Management Estimates: ----------------------------------------------- The accompanying financial information for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 has not been examined by independent public accountants. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those based upon such estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions are revised as necessary. 7 9 SIFCO INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED STATEMENTS OF INCOME The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant factors which have affected the Company's earnings during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated condensed statements of income. A summary of the period-to-period changes in the principal items included in the consolidated condensed statements of income is shown below:
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended June 30 June 30 1997 and 1996 1997 and 1996 ------------------ ----------------- Net Sales of SIFCO Industries, Inc. $ 6,857 30 % $ 17,373 27% Cost of Sales 5,134 28 % 13,193 26% Selling, General & Administrative 628 19 % 1,392 16% Interest Income 15 53 % 31 44% Interest Expense (17) (6)% 29 3% Other Income, Net (26) N/A (41) (241%) Income Before Income Taxes 1,101 75 % 2,749 88% Provision for Federal, Foreign & State Income Taxes 482 618 % 1,070 425% Net Income 619 45 % 1,679 59%
8 10 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION - ----------------------- We are happy to report that our third quarter performance was the strongest we have achieved in several years. In the third quarter ended June 30, net sales increased 30% to $30 million compared to $23 million last year. Net sales for the nine-month period improved 27% to $81 million from $64 million in the same 1996 period. Incoming orders were down just slightly for the quarter, but were up $14 million to $86 million year-to-date. We commented in our last quarterly report that our sales performance during the first half of fiscal 1997 could be leading us to our first $100 million sales year. We now anticipate that accomplishment with increased certainty as we move into the last 1997 fiscal quarter. Profit before tax for the third quarter climbed 75% to $2,569,000 from $1,468,000, while earnings per share rose 40% to $0.38 compared to $0.27 in the same 1996 period. Profit before tax year-to-date increased 88% from $3,106,000 to $5,855,000, and earnings per share improved 55% to $0.87 from $0.56 last year. We are pleased with the earnings performance of both of our business segments. They are demonstrating excellent ability to control costs and improve production efficiencies while meeting the demands of increased sales volume. We have recently broken ground for an expansion of our turbine component repair capability in Ireland. The additional capacity will significantly increase our ability to provide customers with the timely and comprehensive repair services they have learned to expect from SIFCO. SIFCO has built much of its sales success on a foundation of dedicated customer service. A program that has demonstrated itself to be an extremely effective marketing tool has been the Turbine Group's just-in-time (JIT) inventory management partnership. Although the JIT partnership is not unique to SIFCO, the Turbine Group is the first to apply the system in the turbine component repair markets it serves. We have described the program in past reports, but mention it here again because of its increasing success in consolidating customer relationships. The growth of customer response to JIT no doubt results in part from the demands being made now on aircraft maintenance schedules as air traffic continues to experience the effects of a strengthening economy and expanding air travel. As the pressure increases on airline maintenance, our Turbine Group's ability to supply the right part promptly as needed is an important asset. It relieves the customer from the costly expense of maintaining extensive inventories and helps protect against delays and aircraft down times due to parts shortages. We should also mention the professional pride Forge personnel experienced when Boeing and Bell Textron announced initial sales for their new 609 civilian tilt rotor aircraft at the Paris Air Show. The Forge Group has several forgings in this 21st century aircraft. Forge participated in the earlier military prototype version designated the V-22 with a large variety of forgings. The 609 combines the take-off, hover and landing qualities of a helicopter with the high speed range and efficiency of a turboprop aircraft. The 609 can attain speeds twice as fast and range twice as far as current helicopters, and the people in SIFCO Forge Group have made a substantial contribution to the production of this break-through technology. As we enter the final quarter of 1997, we do so with confidence that our sales and earnings performance will continue to build on the solid foundation that our past performance has established. We have the range of products, the human resources and the expertise to effectively meet the needs of our customers and thereby serve the interests of our loyal shareholders. 9 11 FINANCIAL ANALYSIS - ------------------ Net sales for the third quarter ended June 30, 1997 increased $6.9 to $30.0 million from $23.1 million a year ago.
