COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2003 TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2002. REVENUES Revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2003 totaled $9.9 million as compared to $3.7 million for the three months ended May 31, 2002, an increase of $6.2 million or 168%. The revenue increase is a direct result of the Company being awarded additional contracts during the latter part of fiscal year ended August 31, 2002 as well as in the second quarter ended February 28, 2003. These additional contracts resulted in the Company incurring approximately 83,000 shop floor hours during the third quarter of 2003, as compared to 49,000 during the same period of 2002, an increase of 34,000 hours or 69%. As of May 31, 2003, the Company had approximately $26.1 million in contract backlogs. This compares to approximately $21.7 million as of May 31, 2002, an increase of $4.4 million or 20%. This backlog, in shop floor hours, increased from 243,000 as of May 31, 2002 to 254,000 as of May 31, 2003, an increase of 4.5%. The Company was awarded additional contracts in excess of $5.6 million during the third quarter of 2003, as compared to $17.6 million in the same quarter last year. COST OF SALES Cost of sales was $8.8 million or 89.0% of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2003 as compared to $3.6 million or 96.3% of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2002. The increase in gross margin was largely due to the increase in revenue, which absorbed more of the Company's fixed overhead. Direct costs increased from $1.6 million for the three months ended May 31, 2002 to $6.4 million for the three months ended May 31, 2003, as a percent of sales it increased from 42.2% to 64.8%. Direct labor expense was $872,000 in 2002 as compared to $1,710,000 in 2003 however, as a percent of sales, direct labor expense decreased from 23.6% to 17.2%. While direct labor expense increased by $838,000 or 96%, actual shop floor hours increased from 49,000 to 83,000. The increase in shop floor hours was a direct result of higher contract levels for the three months ended May 31, 2003. Other direct cost increases included $1,418,000 in direct material expense and $2,611,000 in outside service expenses. As a percent of sales, these other direct expenses represented 47.6% for the three months ended May 31, 2003 as compared to 18.6% for the three months ended May 31, 2002. These increases were largely due to the increased volumes and related outsourcing contracts. The Company, as a result of its increased backlog, is outsourcing certain stamping die construction to other die manufacturers. As a result, the Company has recorded approximately $1.9 million of expense during the third quarter of 2003 related to the outsourcing die construction. The remaining outside services expense increases included approximately $197,000 in patterns and $517,000 in other outside services. 9. Engineering expense increased from $424,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2002 to $660,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2003 however, as a percent of sales, engineering expense decreased from 11.4% to 6.7%. This increase was a result of the higher engineering component of the Company's contract backlog including project management of certain contracts. The Company has increased its engineering staff in the past few quarters to process the additional awarded contracts. Manufacturing overhead expense during the third quarter of 2003 increased by $158,000 over the same period last year, however due to increased revenues, manufacturing overhead, as a percent of sales, decreased from 42.7% for the three months ended May 31, 2002 to 17.5% for the three months ended May 31, 2003. SELLING & ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Selling and administrative expenses increased from $441,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2002 to $506,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2003. As a percent of sales, selling and administrative expense decreased from 11.9% to 5.1%. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense for the three months ended May 31, 2003 was approximately $118,000 as compared to approximately $150,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2002. As a percentage of sales, interest expense decreased from 4.0% in the quarter ended May 31, 2002 to 1.2% for the quarter ended May 31, 2003. This decrease was the result of lower debt levels and interest rates during the quarter ended May 31, 2003 as compared to the previous comparable quarter. OTHER EXPENSE - Other expense for the three months ended May 31, 2003 was approximately $77,000 due to fees and expenses incurred during the second quarter of 2003 in relation to the Company's debt refinancing. Such expenses and fees are being amortized over the term of the financing (one year). COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2003 TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2002. REVENUES Revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2003 totaled $22.6 million as compared to $10.5 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2002, an increase of $12.1 million or 115%. The revenue increase is a direct result of the Company receiving additional orders during the past year. For the nine months ended May 31, 2003, the Company had incurred approximately 213,000 shop floor hours as compared to 138,000 during the same period of 2002, an increase of 75,000 hours or 54%. COST OF SALES Cost of sales was $20.3 million or 90.0% of sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2003 as compared to $10.7 million or 101.8% of sales for the same period last year. The increase in gross margin was due to the Company's increased backlog and revenues thus resulting in improved absorption of the Company's fixed manufacturing overhead. Direct costs increased from $4.9 million in 2002 to $13.5 million in 2003 and, as a percent of sales, direct costs increased from 47.0% to 60.0%. Direct labor expense was $4.2 million in 2003 as compared to $2.7 million in 2002 however, as a percent of sales, direct labor expense decreased from 25.2% in 2002 to 18.4% in 2003. The increase in direct labor expense of $1.5 million was a direct result of higher contract level requirements and resulting increase in shop floor hours during the first three quarters of 2003. Direct material expense increased from $1.7 million in 2002 to $4.1 million in 2003, however as a result of the increase in revenue, direct material expense, as a percent of sales, increased from 16.3% in 2002 to 18.1% in 2003. Outside service expenses increased from 10. $623,000 in 2002 to $5.3 million in 2003 and, as a percent of sales, increased from 5.9% to 23.5%. This significant increase was largely due to the increased volumes and related outsourcing contracts. The Company, as a result of its increased backlog, is outsourcing certain stamping die construction to other die manufacturers and has recorded approximately $3.0 million of related expense during the first nine months of 2003. The remaining outside services expense increases included approximately $429,000 in patterns and $1.25 million in other outside services. Engineering expense increased from $1.1 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2002 to $1.7 million for same period of 2003 however, as a percent of sales engineering expense decreased from 10.1% to 7.6%. The increase in engineering expense was largely in salaries as a result of the Company increasing its engineering staffing levels for the Company's increased backlog. Manufacturing overhead expense increased from $4.7 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2002 to $5.0 million for the same period in 2003, however, due to increased revenues, it decreased, as a percent of sales, from 44.6% to 22.3%. The largest increases during this period in 2003 as compared to 2002 included $129,000 in payroll tax expense and $111,000 in medical, workers compensation and general insurance. SELLING & ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Selling and administrative expenses decreased from $1,285,000 or 12.2% of sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2002 to $1,244,000 or 5.5% of sales in 2003. INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense for the nine months ended May 31, 2003, compared to 2002, decreased slightly to $417,000 or 1.8% of sales from $487,000 or 4.6% of sales. This decrease was the result of lower debt levels and interest rates during the nine months ended May 31, 2003 as compared to the previous comparable period. OTHER EXPENSE Other expense for the nine months ended May 31, 2003 was approximately $161,000 or 0.7% of sales. This cost was due to fees and expenses incurred during the second quarter of 2003 in relation to the Company's debt refinancing. Such expenses and fees are being amortized over the term of the financing (one year). FEDERAL INCOME TAXES For the nine months ended May 31, 2003, the Company decreased its valuation allowance by $147,000 to reflect the deferred tax assets utilized to reduce current income taxes. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES For the nine months ended May 31, 2003, the Company's cash provided by operating activities was $1,836,000. This largely resulted from increases of $1,995,000 in account receivables and $2,898,000 in contracts in process. These increases were offset by a $5,181,000 increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses. From investing activities, the Company incurred an increase in other assets (cash surrender value of life insurance policies) of $22,000 and acquired $182,000 in plant, property and equipment. The Company used $3,327,000 to reduce the revolving credit line and $642,000 to reduce long-term and subordinated debt. The Company believes that the unused portion of the Revolving Line of Credit and funds generated from operations including continuing receipt of progress payments from the Company's major customer will be sufficient to cover anticipated cash needs through fiscal 2003. However, depending on the level of future sales, and the terms of such sales, an expanded credit line may be necessary to finance increases in trade accounts receivable and contracts in process. The Company believes it will be able to obtain such expanded credit line, if required, on generally the same terms as the existing credit line. 11. ITEM 3.
