AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION MARCH 31, 1998 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. (2) Debt: ----- Long-term debt as of March 31, 1998 and September 30, 1997 consisted of:
March 31 Sept. 30 1998 1997 -------- -------- ($000 Omitted) Variable Rate Industrial Development Demand Revenue Improvement and Refunding Bonds $ 1,700 $ 1,900 Note payable to bank, due in quarterly installments of $214,000, at the base rate 5,144 5,572 Note payable to bank, due October 31, 1998, interest payable quarterly, at rates based upon LIBOR and DIBOR 1,000 1,000 Note payable under revolving credit agreement, at the base rate 8,100 4,500 ------- ------- $15,944 $12,972 Less - current maturities 1,256 1,256 ------- ------- $14,688 $11,716 ======= =======
5 7 The Company had a $9 million revolving credit agreement as of March 31, 1998 which was to expire on March 31, 1999. The Company had $8.1 million outstanding under this agreement at March 31, 1998. The average balance outstanding against the revolving credit was $6.0 million and $6.2 million during the six month period of fiscal 1998 and 1997, respectively. The balances outstanding under this credit agreement have been classified as long term debt. A commitment fee of 1/4% is incurred on the remaining unused balance. In April 1998, the Company restructured its credit facilities reducing the $9 million revolving credit agreement to $3 million, which bears interest at the bank's base rate, and replacing the $5.144 million term loan with a 10-year, $12 million term loan. The loan is repayable in quarterly payments of $.3 million beginning August 1, 1998. The term loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 7.24%, subject to adjustment if certain loan covenants are not maintained. In addition, the Company has a $1.15 million credit facility, which is used for an irrevocable letter of credit that secures the $1 million loan from an Irish bank due October 31, 1998. The loan has a variable interest rate based on a combination of LIBOR and DIBOR (Dublin Interbank Rates) rates. 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 $.1 million, with the final balance due on May 1, 2002. The property and equipment of the facility secure the bonds and is backed by an irrevocable bank letter of credit which expires on May 1, 1998. The Company is in the process of obtaining a $4.2 million, 15-year, Industrial Development bond. The proceeds of the bond will be used to refund the existing Industrial Development bond and the balance of the funds will be used to expand the Turbine Component Services and Repair facility in Tampa, Florida. The interest rate would be reset weekly, based on prevailing tax-exempt money market rates, payable quarterly. The property and equipment of the facility will secure the bonds and be backed by an irrevocable letter of credit. Among other covenants, the Company is required to maintain a minimum tangible net worth (as defined) of $30.0 million, increasing by 50% of net income subsequent to September 30, 1997. Tangible net worth exceeded the required minimum by $9.1 million at March 31, 1998. (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 1998 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 $4,422,000 and $4,372,000 higher than reported at March 31, 1998 and September 30, 1997, 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) Basis of Presentation and Management Estimates: ----------------------------------------------- The accompanying financial information for the six months ended March 31, 1998 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 Six Months Ended March 31 March 31 1998 and 1997 1998 and 1997 ----------------- ---------------- Net Sales of SIFCO Industries, Inc. $ 3,827 14% $ 9,964 19% Cost of Sales 2,924 13% 7,227 18% Selling, General & Administrative 127 4% 514 8% Interest Income 28 112% 44 75% Interest Expense 2 1% (59) (9)% Other Income, Net 206 ---- 382 ---- Income Before Income Taxes 1,008 56% 2,708 82% Provision for Federal, Foreign & State Income Taxes 65 17% 436 57% Net Income 943 66% 2,272 90%
8 10 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION - ----------------------- We are pleased with the performance of both of our business segments. Through their combined efforts, second quarter profit before tax increased 56% to $2,817,000, and net income improved 66% to $2,369,000, compared to last year's quarter. The six months also made strong gains as profit before tax was up 82% to $5,994,000, and net income rose 90% to $4,796,000. Sales were up 14% to $30,949,000 for the quarter and 19% to $60,487,000 for the six-month period. New orders again reflect the relative strength of the aerospace markets we serve as new orders in the quarter were $33,400,000 compared to last year's $27,800,000, and $64,800,000 for the six months compared to $59,900,000 a year ago. Backlog at March 31, 1998 was $48,000,000 against $51,500,000 last year. Our business segments continued to grow in the first half of fiscal 1998 with a 22% sales increase in Aerospace Component Manufacturing and an 18% sales gain in Turbine Component Services and Repair. Although sales for our manufacturing segment outgained repair operations during the quarter, our repair segment dominated our business activity with 62% of our total sales. To facilitate the present as well as the anticipated growth of our business segments, we have been concentrating on expanding our facilities through new construction and the upgrading of existing plants and equipment. Two of the largest projects include a new operation located in a 26,000-square-foot, custom-built facility on a five-acre site at Lough Mahon Technology Park in Cork, Ireland. The new capacity is designed for the exclusive refurbishment of turbine blades. We are also completing a major addition to our repair operations in Tampa to house several new families of repair products. These projects have expanded the capacity of our combined repair facilities by 25% and are significantly improving our repair capabilities for the product volume and diversity that are necessary to meet the growing demands of our customers in the airlines industry. In addition to new construction, programs have been initiated or completed to increase production efficiencies. New operations strategies have been developed in our repair segment that involve organizing facilities around product families rather than the traditional department structure. As a result, the new plant in Cork is exclusively equipped and organized to do blade repair. This specialization significantly improves the efficiency and utilization of equipment as well as the special capabilities of the work force. Other plants in the repair segment are being organized using the same strategies. A wide variety of modifications in procedures and facilities have also been initiated by our Aerospace Component Manufacturing operations. The segment has also updated its quality control procedures and recently received its ISO 9002 reaccreditation. At a meeting on April 28, 1998, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $.05 per share for the fiscal 1998 second quarter. This dividend will be payable June 2, 1998 on the Common Shares of the Corporation to holders of record at the close of business on May 19, 1998. Our most recent cash dividend was $.05 per share for the first quarter of fiscal 1998. Please note that we are now paying dividends on a quarterly rather than annual schedule. The dividend reflects the strong performance of our business segments during the past quarter as well as our optimism for the year ahead. We thank you for your continued support. 9 11 FINANCIAL ANALYSIS - ------------------ Net sales for the second quarter ended March 31, 1998 increased $3.8 to $30.9 million from $27.1 million a year ago or 14%.
