ITEM 1. BUSINESS --------
GENERAL -------
Miltope Group Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation incorporated in March 1984, is the parent company of Miltope Corporation, an Alabama corporation ("Miltope"), and Miltope Business Products, Inc., a New York corporation ("MBP"). Miltope was originally incorporated as a New York corporation in 1975 to acquire the assets and business of the Military Equipment Division of Potter Instrument Company, Inc. and until June 1984 was a wholly owned subsidiary of Stonebrook Group Inc. (formerly Stenbeck Reassurance Co. Inc.) ("SGI"). In June 1984, all of the outstanding stock of the Company was issued to SGI in exchange for all of the outstanding stock of Miltope. SGI is a privately held corporation which, since 1975, has supported the formation and funding of companies engaged in the development and manufacture of electronic hardware for defense and communications applications and in communications services. In January 1985, shareholders of the Company (including SGI) sold 700,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock in an initial public offering. In November 1985, the Company sold an additional 1,000,000 shares of its Common Stock to the public. As of December 30, 1994, Miltope merged with and into a newly formed Alabama corporation, which succeeded to all of the New York corporation's assets and liabilities. On January 1, 1995, Innova International Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("IIC"), acquired 62.8% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company pursuant to certain share exchange transactions with SGI, which at such time was a holder of approximately 55.6% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, and Stuvik AB, a Swedish corporation and, at such time, a holder of approximately 7.2% of the outstanding shares of Company common stock. IIC provides, through its operating subsidiaries, integrated network products and services. IIC is a subsidiary of Great Universal American Industries Inc. (formerly American Satellite Network, Inc.), a Delaware corporation which is engaged in network integration services and the provision of satellite television programming.
Miltope is engaged in the design, development, manufacture and testing of computers and computer peripheral equipment for military, rugged and other specialized applications requiring reliable operations in severe land, sea and airborne environments for both military and commercial customers. Miltope's product lines include a broad range of computer printers, disk memory products, magnetic tape drives, hand held terminals, transportable microcomputers and electronically erasable programmable read only memory ("EEPROM") together with subsystems incorporating these products. Miltope believes that it is the largest independent producer ("non-OEM"; not an original equipment manufacturer) of such militarized and ruggedized computer and peripheral equipment in the United States. In addition, Miltope provides a complete line of ruggedized Hewlett Packard Company computers and related equipment and has introduced a new product family consisting of ruggedized portable and hand held computers.
MBP, incorporated in May 1984, develops, manufactures and markets commercial computer printers and document processing products.
On January 1, 1996, the Company consolidated the operations of MBP and Miltope Corporation. The Company's two industry segments will be maintained through product line accountability.
In September 1994, the Company relocated its headquarters from Melville, New York to Montgomery, Alabama.
On January 12, 1995, the Company completed a $6,100,000 industrial revenue bond offering by the Alabama State Industrial Development Authority ("SIDA"), the proceeds of which were used to improve, equip and furnish the new Montgomery facility and to pay the $3,375,000 principal amount of bank indebtedness which was used in part in the acquisition of such facility.
SEGMENT INFORMATION -------------------
The Company's business is divided into two industry segments, consisting of the manufacture of militarized and rugged equipment primarily for military applications conducted by the "Military/Rugged" segment, and the manufacture and distribution of commercial products conducted by the "Commercial" segment (formerly MBP). Financial information regarding the Company's industry segments is included in Note 12 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements located in Item 8 of this Form 10-K.
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS -----------------------
MILITARY/RUGGED GENERAL -----------------------
The military/rugged segment is engaged in the design, development, manufacture and testing of computer and computer peripheral equipment for military, rugged and other specialized applications requiring reliable operations in severe land, sea and airborne environments for both military and commercial customers. Military/rugged product lines include a broad range of computer printers, disk memory products, magnetic tape drives, hand held terminals, transportable microcomputers and EEPROM solid state memories, together with subsystems incorporating these products. The Company believes that it is the largest independent producer (non-OEM) of such militarized and ruggedized computers and peripheral equipment in the United States. In 1988, the Company introduced a complete line of ruggedized Hewlett Packard Company computers and related peripherals. The equipment is being used for the United States Army's Tactical Command and Control System/Common Hardware Software Program ("ATCCS/CHS") under a contract awarded to the Company in August 1988, as well as to other customers for related applications. During 1995, the Company introduced a new product family consisting of ruggedized portable and hand held computers to be used for both military and commercial applications. These new products are reconfigurable for specific applications and employ commercial "off the shelf" technology.
Substantially all of the military/rugged segment sales consist of militarized and ruggedized products. "Militarized" equipment is designed and built, with respect to each component and the whole, to conform to stringent United States Department of Defense ("DOD") specifications developed for severe land, sea and airborne operating environments. These specifications define equipment operating parameters including atmosphere, temperature and humidity conditions, permitted levels of shock and vibration, susceptibility to electromagnetic interference and detection and hardening for nuclear survivability. "Ruggedized" equipment is designed and manufactured to less demanding specifications and may include commercially available devices which are suitably modified for these applications.
Production of equipment conforming to these DOD specifications has required the development over the years by the Company of proprietary electronic and electro-mechanical designs and engineering techniques and specialized manufacturing and testing methods. By these means, the Company has developed a broad range of proprietary components which meet these specifications and are otherwise unavailable in the commercial market. To support its engineering, manufacturing and testing activities, the Company has extensive manufacturing equipment, clean rooms and reliability and environmental testing facilities as well as a multi-function computer aided design and manufacturing ("CAD/CAM") system and an electro-magnetic interference ("EMI") test lab.
Military/rugged products are sold for use in a broad range of military programs for the United States Air Force, Army, Navy and Marine Corps, for NATO, for the British, Canadian, French, German, Israeli, Italian, Spanish and Norwegian armed forces and for the armed forces of other countries. Miltope's militarized and ruggedized computers and peripheral products are compatible with most standard military computers and are sold to the DOD and many prime DOD systems contractors and integrators, including Boeing Co., EDS, E-Systems, Inc., Northrop Grumman Corporation, GTE Corp., ITT Federal Services Corporation, Litton Data Systems, Lockheed Martin, Marconi Radar Control Systems Limited, McDonnell Douglas Corp., Motorola Inc., Rockwell International, Loral Federal Systems, Teledyne Controls, Thompson CSF, CAE Inc., ITT Defense Systems, TRW, Inc., and Westinghouse Electric.
Miltope believes that it has captured a major portion of the market for militarized printers, magnetic tape systems and disk memory products. In addition, Miltope is recognized as a leading supplier of rugged computers and related equipment. A key element of Miltope's strategy has been to develop and deliver a broad range of high reliability peripheral components and systems on a cost effective and timely basis. The breadth of Miltope's product offerings enables system integrators to avoid the risks normally encountered when procuring peripherals from multiple suppliers and to achieve significant price advantages. Miltope's ability to meet the diverse requirements of its customers has resulted in substantial recurring business. Also, as defense budgets have been reduced, an emphasis on commercially adaptable electronics and the requirement for smaller, less expensive and more portable systems has occurred. Miltope believes its new product family of ruggedized, reconfigurable portable and handheld computing devices will serve this growing market niche well.
Miltope has been performing under a nine year DOD contract which runs until August 1997 in connection with the ATCCS/CHS Program. The purpose of the ATCCS/CHS Program is to integrate most of the aspects of land combat through the common automation of mission command and control areas. To date, Miltope has been issued firm orders valued at approximately $281,000,000 under this contract. In addition, the Company has received orders for ATCCS/CHS equipment for other defense contractors and foreign governments.
COMMERCIAL - GENERAL --------------------
The commercial segment (formerly MBP) develops, manufactures and markets commercial products primarily for transportation markets. Its primary products are airborne cockpit printers, and printers for airline tickets and boarding passes. These products are based on direct thermal and thermal transfer technology. This segment's business represented approximately 15% of the Company's 1995 revenues, approximately 12% of the Company's 1994 revenues and approximately 8% of the Company's 1993 revenues.
In January 1993, MBP completed the purchase of the assets of Mag-Tek Inc.'s ("Mag-Tek") Airline Products Group. Included in this purchase was the Automatic Ticket and Boarding Pass (ATB) Encoded/Printer. This product is designed to meet the future needs of the international air transport industry's passenger handling and ticketing systems, adding to this segments current line of ticket printers.
SALES AND SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS -------------------------------
Sales in 1995 attributable to the military industry segment were approximately as follows: 64% from large DOD programs (each accounting for 2% or more of annual sales), 9% from smaller programs and sales of standard items in Miltope's catalogue, 23% from sales to foreign governments and defense contractors and 4% from spare parts sales. Sales to any one large DOD program have varied substantially from year to year due to product cycles and DOD requirements.
In 1995, sales to the DOD accounted for 63% of net sales of the Company. Sales to Marconi Radar Control Systems Limited accounted for 13% of net sales. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales.
The Company has experienced large fluctuations from year to year in the percentage of sales represented by particular customers due to product cycles and customer requirements. The Company believes its customers and the industry are moving to shorter lead times due to compressed technology cycles and changes in procurement strategies.
Sales in 1995 attributable to the commercial industry segment amounted to approximately 15% of the Company's total net sales.
GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS --------------------
Miltope's business is subject to various statutes, regulations and provisions governing defense contracts including the Truth in Negotiations Act, which provides for the examination by the U.S. government of cost records to determine whether accurate pricing information was disclosed in connection with government contracts.
Contracts with the U.S. government as well as with U.S. government prime contractors are typically at a fixed price with a delivery cycle of 6 to 18 months, with contracts under a particular program being subject to further funding and negotiation. Miltope's defense contracts contain customary provisions permitting termination at any time at the convenience of the customer and providing for payment for work-in-progress should the contract be canceled.
BACKLOG -------
Backlog for both the military and commercial industry segments at December 31, 1995 was $17,200,000, a 65.9% decrease from the $50,400,000 backlog at December 31, 1994. The Company believes a significant part of this decrease was due to its customers and the industry moving to shorter lead times in order to avoid technological obsolescence.
Backlog includes only orders covered by signed contracts with customers and only current, funded portions of multi-year programs. The Company believes that substantially all of the backlog will be recognized as revenue by December 31, 1996. The Company also believes that a substantial part of new business captured in 1996 will be recognized as revenue in the same year due to shorter lead times.
Backlog for the commercial industry segment was approximately 26% of the total backlog at December 31, 1995 and approximately 12% of the total backlog at December 1994.
COMPETITION -----------
Both of the Company's industry segments face intense competition in markets for certain of their products. Competition comes from independent producers as well as prime contractors. Some of these competitors have greater resources than the Company. Competition is based on such factors as price, technological capability, quality, reliability and timely delivery.
The Company's competitive position in the military/rugged industry segment has been based upon the experience of its technical personnel in their respective specialized fields of computer and peripheral product design; its broad range of products; its ability to design and manufacture its products to meet customers' specifications; its specialized manufacturing and testing facilities; its long association with many of its customers and its managerial and marketing expertise in dealing with prime contractors and the DOD. The Company believes that once a particular supplier's computer and/or peripheral products have been selected for incorporation in a military program, further competition by other vendors during the life cycle of that program is limited.
ENGINEERING, RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT -------------------------------------
The Company believes that success within the industry depends in large part upon its ability to develop and apply new technology to modify, enhance and expand its existing line of proprietary products. The funding of these activities is primarily internal through Company sponsored research and development. Product development activities are generally the result of the need to respond to the anticipated requirements of future programs, the introduction of new technology which can be used to enhance product performance and direct requests by customers and the DOD. In certain cases the Company has licensed technology from commercial manufacturers for subsequent militarization and ruggedization. Management believes that a budget of approximately 4% to 7% of net sales for engineering, research and development expenditures should adequately support the growth of the Company's business.
Engineering, research and development expenditures in 1993, 1994 and 1995 were approximately $5,400,000, $4,300,000 and $3,900,000, respectively.
Currently, Miltope's funded research efforts for its military/rugged segment include projects to enhance its disk drive, printer, computer workstation and portable/hand held computer products. The commercial segment's research and development costs have been incurred to enhance its airline ticket printers and airborne cockpit printers for the commercial market.
EMPLOYEES ---------
At December 31, 1995, the Company employed 319 full-time personnel. None of the Company's employees are represented by a labor union and the Company has experienced no work stoppages. The Company believes that relations with its employees are excellent.
EXPORT SALES ------------
The Company recorded foreign sales in its military/rugged industry segment of approximately $6,800,000, $11,160,000 and $12,846,000 in 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively. The Company recorded foreign sales in its commercial industry segment in 1993, 1994 and 1995 of approximately $1,200,000, $940,000 and $257,000, respectively. Neither of the Company's industry segments is dependent upon the Company's foreign sales.
SOURCE OF SUPPLY ----------------
The Company utilized multiple suppliers for most materials and components. In order to minimize the risk of delay in delivering finished systems, components are sometimes procured according to the projected need for such components under annual purchasing agreements.
MISCELLANEOUS -------------
Neither of the Company's two industry segments is subject to seasonal business fluctuations.

ITEM 7.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL ------------------------------------------------- CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -----------------------------------
BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT --------------------
The Company's primary business segment provides specialized computers and related peripheral equipment to the United States and foreign military defense departments. Equipment in this segment takes two primary forms. The first of these is fully militarized products, usually designed especially for a particular mission area with demanding environmental and quality requirements. The second of these is rugged products, usually based on a commercial baseline product, but adapted by the Company to meet environmental and quality specifications that exceed the requirements for commercial products.
This entire segment has been impacted in recent years by reduced government spending and defense appropriations. The militarized product area has been especially subject to defense budget cuts. The military continues to reduce funding for the development and limited production quantities of highly customized systems and products. The long design cycle for these programs creates an intangible cost in the form of rapid technological obsolescence. Some military programs that would have sought militarized equipment some years ago have modified the requirements to reflect a need for rugged or commercial products. This trend has tended to benefit sales of the Company's rugged product line. Even in the rugged product area, however, defense cuts have taken a toll. Competition in this area has become more keen in recent years, as many government contractors pursue fewer military programs.
Through its commercial segment, the Company designs, develops and markets airline ticketing and boarding pass printers and baggage tag printers for airline transportation and travel related industries. Through this segment, the Company also designs, develops and markets airborne cockpit printers. Sales in this commercial segment increased by 12.0% in 1995 reflecting the trend within the travel related industries toward new magnetic encoding technology, ATB 2, as endorsed by the International Air Transportation Association. Implementation of this technology involves replacement of document printers at airports and major travel agencies throughout the world.
The Company has continued its strategy to downsize and reallocate its resources to accommodate as well as take advantage of this changing market environment. Specifically, the Company has taken the following actions:
1. The Company has streamlined its product development cycle by implementing rapid prototyping capabilities.
2. The Company continues its development of a broad offering of low cost, rugged, commercial based products that are customized to meet specific needs for both DOD and commercial markets.
3. The Company continues its commitment and focus on commercial market opportunities.
4. The Company consolidated the operations of Miltope Corporation and MBP to eliminate redundancies and reduce costs.
These actions have positioned the Company to go forward with a substantially reduced cost base and to compete more aggressively in its core businesses.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ---------------------
The Company reported income from operations of $377,000 compared to a loss from operations of $17.6 million (including a relocation and restructuring charge in the amount of $9.1 million and special charges totaling $10 million) in 1994 and a loss from operations of $233,000 in 1993. The net loss per common share was $.17 compared to a net loss of $2.65 per share in 1994 and a net loss of $.15 per share in 1993.
In 1994, the Company changed its method of accounting for certain inventories to the actual-cost-incurred method from the last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost method. The results of operations for the year ended December 31, 1993 has been adjusted to reflect this change.
In 1994, the Company made the decision to restructure and relocate the Company resulting in special charges which significantly impacted 1994 operating results. The Company incurred a pre-tax charge of $9.1 million to cover costs associated with severance and related human resource programs, employee relocation, the transfer of assets and the operational impact due to the transition. The transition was completed during 1995. Additional special charges in the amount of $10 million were recorded in 1994 to reflect inventory obsolescence and other costs related to discontinued product lines, end of life contract costs and additional costs on long-term contracts. The special charges were principally non-cash in nature and included $4.9 million applicable to discontinued products and inventory obsolescence, $2.2 million related to end of life contracts and $2.9 million for additional costs on long-term contracts.
Sales for 1995 totaled $65.7 million, a decrease of $9.9 million, or 13.1%, from 1994. This change was attributable to a reduction in military sales of $10.9 million partially offset by an increase in commercial sales in the amount of $1.0 million. Sales in 1994 totaled $75.6 million, a decrease of $8.8 million, or 10.4% from 1993. A substantial portion of the sales decline was attributable to difficulties in effecting the relocation.
Exclusive of special charges in 1994, gross profit as a percent of sales declined from 20.7% in 1994 to 20.4% in 1995. This decline was the result of a change in mix in products and the different margins associated with the commercial and ruggedized lines.
Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, totaled 16.4% in 1993, 13.0% in 1994 and 13.9% in 1995. The increase in 1995 was principally due to an emphasis on increased marketing and business development efforts and severance costs related to a reorganization which took place in the second quarter of 1995. The decrease in 1994 was principally due to cost benefits of the relocation and reduced sales related expenses and professional fees.
Engineering, research and development expenses, as a percentage of sales, totaled 6.4% in 1993, 5.7% in 1994 and 5.9% in 1995. The increase in 1995 was driven primarily by product development of the company's new family of portable and hand held computers. The primary cause of the decrease in 1994 was related to the cost benefits of the relocation.
During 1993, the Company exercised an option to purchase its main operating facility in Melville, New York for $5.0 million. Prior to December 31, 1993, the Company recognized a non-recurring charge of approximately $2.2 million representing the excess of the carrying value of the building and related improvements over the estimated selling price less cost to dispose which in turn was sold in 1994.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES -------------------------------
Working capital at December 31, 1995 totaled $18.9 million, a decrease of $502 thousand from December 31, 1994. Accounts receivable and inventory declined by $7.2 million reflecting the Company's lower sales volume. A term loan from the bank was used by the Company to purchase and renovate its new corporate headquarters in 1994 in anticipation of receiving industrial revenue bond financing. The decrease in accounts payable is due to the payment of same with the proceeds of the industrial revenue bond. The decrease in accrued expenses reflects the payment of the Company's relocation charges that remained outstanding as at December 31, 1994 and the Company's lower sales volume.
The Company entered into a revolving credit facility in July 1994 for an amount not to exceed $15 million. In February 1995, the credit facility was amended to an amount not to exceed $19 million. In November 1995 the credit facility was amended again to an amount not to exceed $15 million and it was extended for an additional one-year period expiring May 31, 1997, subject to extension for additional one-year periods. As of December 31, 1995, the Company had approximately $4.7 million available under such facility. In August 1994, the Company sold its principal operating facility in Melville, New York for $6.1 million. Net proceeds of the sale were used to pay down the revolving credit facility.
Cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $5.7 million in 1993, $(2.0 million)in 1994 and $(295 thousand) in 1995. The decrease of cash used in operating activities in 1995 compared to 1994 is primarily a result of decreases in accounts receivable and inventories and collection of an income tax receivable partially offset by the payment in 1995 of accounts payable that were used in 1994 to fund the purchase of a new headquarters facility and related costs prior to receiving industrial revenue bond financing, and the payment in 1995 of remaining relocation charges accrued in 1994.
In April 1994, the Company purchased a new headquarters facility and related capital equipment located in Montgomery, Alabama. The purchase was financed through a bank term loan and the proceeds of the offering of taxable revenue bonds (the "Bonds") by the Alabama State Industrial Development Authority which was completed January 12, 1995 (the "SIDA Offering"). Repayment of the Bonds is secured by an irrevocable letter of credit issued by First Alabama Bank in an amount up to $6.2 million which in turn is secured by a mortgage on the Montgomery and Troy, Alabama facilities and a security interest in the equipment located at such facilities.
As a result of the net operating losses, the Company was unable to remain in compliance with financial covenants contained in the revolving credit agreement. On December 12, 1995, an amendment to the agreement was executed, which principally provided additional flexibility with respect to certain future covenants and waived technical violations of those covenants which existed at September 30, 1995.
The Company has a net operating loss carry forward for Federal income tax purposes of approximately $10.3 million and $1.2 million which will expire in 2009 and 2010, respectively, if not utilized. No benefit has been recognized within the 1995 consolidated financial statements for the related net deferred tax asset which could be recognized in future periods if the probability of realization increases.
The Company believes that its working capital and capital requirement needs for its current lines of business and new product development will be met by its cash flow from operations and existing bank loan arrangements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ----------------------------
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Miltope Group Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Miltope Group Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995. These 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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 1994 and 1995, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
As further discussed in Note 2, during 1994 the Company changed its method of accounting for certain inventories. The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1993 have been retroactively adjusted for this change.

MILTOPE GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES -----------------------------------
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993, 1994 AND 1995 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING POLICIES ---------------------------------
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated financial statements --------------------------- include the accounts of Miltope Group Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Miltope Corporation ("Miltope"), Miltope Business Products, Inc. ("MBP") and Miltope's wholly-owned subsidiary, International Miltope, Ltd., a Foreign Sales Corporation ("FSC"). All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
NATURE OF OPERATIONS - The Company through its two industry segments, -------------------- military/rugged and commercial (MBP), is engaged in the development of computers and peripheral equipment for rugged and other specialized applications for military and commercial customers, domestic and international. On January 1, 1996, the Company consolidated the operations of Miltope and MBP.
ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - The Company's consolidated financial statements -------------------- are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which require 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - The carrying value of the ------------------------------------ Company's accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments. Additional information regarding the fair value of other financial instruments is disclosed in Notes 6 and 7.
INVESTMENT AVAILABLE FOR SALE - During 1994, the Company adopted the ----------------------------- provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS 115"). SFAS 115 requires a positive intent and ability to hold debt securities to maturity as a precondition for reporting those securities at amortized cost. Securities not meeting the condition are considered either available for sale or trading, as defined, and reported at fair value. The investment owned by the Company is considered available for sale. Gains and losses on the disposition of the investment available for sale are computed under the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, related to the investment available for sale are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. The Company did not hold any trading investments or securities deemed to be held to maturity throughout 1994 or 1995. Restrictions on the Company's ability to sell this investment were resolved during 1994, thus there would be no effect on stockholders' equity had the Company adopted SFAS 115 at December 31, 1993.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION - Depreciation of machinery, equipment, ----------------------------- furniture and fixtures is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets ranging from 3 to 10 years. Depreciation of buildings and improvements is computed on the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 30 years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed on the straight- line method over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the improvement or the remaining term of the lease.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS - Intangible assets include a noncompete agreement ----------------- and purchased technology with an aggregate carrying value of $900,000 and $695,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively, which are being amortized over a six to seven-year period on a straight-line basis. The accumulated amortization as of December 31, 1994 and 1995 is $313,000 and $605,000, respectively. The Company periodically reviews intangible assets to assess recoverability, and impairments would be recognized in operating results if a permanent diminution were to occur.
PROGRESS BILLINGS - In accordance with the terms of certain sales ----------------- contracts, a portion of the costs incurred as of the end of specified periods may be billed to the applicable customers even though the contracted units have not been delivered. In accordance with trade practice, such progress payments are not recorded as revenue until the related units are shipped. The amounts of paid progress billings for which the related units have not been shipped are applied against the carrying value of inventories held for the contracts (see Note 4).
REVENUE RECOGNITION - Sales and related cost of sales are generally ------------------- recognized under the unit-of-delivery method of accounting. A significant multi-year contract is accounted for under the percentage- of-completion method of accounting. Income is recognized under the percentage-of-completion method using the cost-to-cost method after considering management's estimates of costs to complete utilizing all available information. Sales under cost reimbursable type contracts are recorded as work is performed. Provisions for estimated losses on contracts in progress are recorded in the period in which the loss is determined. Revisions in profit estimates are reflected in the period in which the facts that require revision are known. Amounts representing contract change orders or claims are included in sales only when they can be reasonably estimated and realization is probable.
ENGINEERING, RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT - Engineering, research and ------------------------------------- development expenditures not made in connection with sales contracts are charged to expense as incurred.
INCOME TAXES - On January 1, 1993, the Company adopted the provisions ------------ of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes ("SFAS 109"), which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial accounting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The impact on the Company's 1993 consolidated financial statements of the adoption of SFAS 109 was not material.
NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE - Net loss per common share is based on the ------------------------- weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The dilutive effect of outstanding common stock options was not included in the loss per share computations. The weighted average number of shares used in computing net loss per common share was 5,825,000 in 1993, 5,834,000 in 1994 and 5,853,000 in 1995.
RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain prior years amounts have been reclassified ----------------- to conform with the 1995 presentation.
ACCOUNTING STANDARDS - Yet to be Adopted In October 1995, the -------------------- Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, which requires adoption of the disclosure provisions no later than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995 and adoption of the recognition and measurement provisions for nonemployee transactions entered into after December 15, 1995. The new standard defines a fair value method of accounting for stock options and other equity instruments. Under the fair value method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period.
Pursuant to the new standard, companies are encouraged, but are not required, to adopt the fair value method of accounting for employee stock-based transactions. Companies are also permitted to continue to account for such transactions under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, ("APB No 25") but would be required to disclose in a note to the financial statements pro forma net income and earnings per share as if the company had applied the new method of accounting.
The accounting requirements of the new method are effective for all employee awards granted after the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company has determined that it will continue to account for employee stock-based transactions under APB No. 25 and will not elect to change to the fair value method. Adoption of the disclosure provisions of this statement in 1996 will result in only increased disclosures regarding pro forma net income and earnings per share as if the Company had applied the new method of accounting.
The FASB has also issued SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of. This statement establishes accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets to be held and used, and for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995 and management believes its impact would be immaterial to the Company's consolidated financial statements if adopted currently.
2. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE ------------------------------
On January 1, 1994, the Company changed its method of accounting for certain inventories to the actual-cost-incurred method from the last- in, first-out ("LIFO") cost method. The Company adopted the LIFO method during 1975 at a time when the cost of materials, labor and overhead were increasing annually at dramatic rates. However, since that time, the prices for materials have declined and created an annual reduction of such costs while labor and overhead have increased substantially. This has created an inconsistent effect among the Company's cost components and, as a result, LIFO does not properly reflect the aggregate cost of inventories. The change to the actual-cost-incurred method was made to avoid distortions in financial reporting and to achieve what management believes will be a better reflection of operating results and greater comparability from period to period. In addition, the change will eliminate the additional record keeping and computational effort required in using the LIFO method.
The Company has retroactively adjusted its consolidated financial statements for this change. The effect of the accounting change decreased net income and net income per share as previously reported for the year ended December 31, 1993 by $986,000 and $.17, respectively.
3. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE -------------------
Accounts receivable consists of the following:
1994 1995 ---- ----
Amounts receivable from the United States Government $ 3,359,000 $ 2,775,000 Unbilled receivables on contracts in progress 3,223,000 1,655,000 Amounts receivable from other customers 8,291,000 6,388,000 Allowance for doubtful accounts (250,000) (401,000) ------------ ------------ Total $ 14,623,000 $ 10,417,000 ============ ============
Unbilled receivables relate principally to certain long-term contracts accounted for on the percentage-of-completion basis. Receivables on the contracts are billed upon shipment of deliverables to the customers.
4. INVENTORIES -----------
Inventories consist of the following:
1994 1995 ---- ----
Purchased parts and subassemblies $ 3,268,000 $ 2,766,000 Work-in-process 13,769,000 13,581,000 Inventoried costs relating to long- term contracts and programs, net of amounts attributed to revenues recognized to date 2,687,000 85,000 ------------ ------------ 19,724,000 16,432,000 Less progress billings received 310,000 - ------------ ------------ Total $ 19,414,000 $ 16,432,000 ============ ============
Work-in-process inventories include materials purchased for specific contracts. Inventories include an allowance for slow-moving and obsolete items of $1,240,000, $2,000,000 and $2,700,000 at December 31, 1993, 1994, and 1995, respectively. The Company wrote-off $379,000, $1,400,000 and $183,000 of slow-moving and obsolete inventory during 1993, 1994 and 1995, respectively.
Cost has been determined on the first-in, first-out basis for Miltope and MBP. Inventory relating to a significant long-term government contract is accounted for based on the estimated average cost of all items included in the contract.
5. ASSET AVAILABLE FOR SALE ------------------------
During 1993, the Company exercised an option to purchase its manufacturing and administrative facility in Melville, New York for $5.0 million. During the fourth quarter of 1993, the Company decided to sell the building. As a result, at December 31, 1993, the Company recognized a charge of approximately $2.2 million representing the excess of the carrying value of the building and related improvements over the estimated selling price (less costs to dispose). At December 31, 1993, the Company classified the net realizable value of the asset and related improvements as a current asset since they intended to consummate the sale during 1994. Such sale occurred during 1994.
6. OTHER ASSETS ------------
In January 1993, the Company acquired certain assets of Mag-Tek, Inc., a manufacturer of commercial airline products, for aggregate consideration, including related acquisition costs, of approximately $3.5 million. The consideration consisted of $2.0 million in cash, aggregate discounted minimum royalties of approximately $1.1 million (see Note 7) and $400,000 in related acquisition costs. The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase.
The Company has an investment available for sale, with an original cost of $5,000, in M-Systems Flash Disk Pioneers, Ltd. ("M-Systems"), a company based in Israel. The Company is a major customer of M- Systems. The Company currently owns 92,014 shares of M-Systems stock at December 31, 1995. The fair market value of the Company's investment in M-Systems stock on December 31, 1995 is $357,000 and is included in other assets and as a separate component of stockholders' equity (net of deferred income taxes) on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. During 1994 and 1995, the Company sold 111,500 and 160,850 shares of stock, respectively. The Company has provided notice to M-Systems of its intent to exercise its option to purchase an additional 153,242 shares of M-Systems stock at a price of $231,000. No value has been ascribed to the option at December 31, 1995.
The Company made loans to a related entity of which the chairman of such entity is a member of the Company's board of directors and, through other shareholdings, is affiliated with the majority shareholder of the Company. The loans bear interest at .75 percent above the prime lending rate (such prime lending rate being 8.5 percent and 8.75 percent at December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively). The maximum amount loaned during the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1995 was $500,000. At December 31, 1994 and 1995, this loan of $500,000 is reflected within other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets since collection is not anticipated to occur during the next fiscal year.
7. LONG-TERM DEBT --------------
Long-term debt consists of the following:
1994 1995 ---- ----
Revolving credit loan $ 13,307,000 $ 10,304,000 Term loan 3,375,000 Present value of minimum royalty payments 1,099,000 1,077,000 1995 Industrial Development Authority Revenue Bond - 6,100,000 ------------ ------------ Total 17,781,000 17,481,000 Less current maturities 230,000 528,000 ------------ ------------
Total $ 17,551,000 $ 16,953,000 ============ ============
A $15,000,000 revolving credit agreement bears interest at the bank's reference rate plus .25% (8.75% and 9.0% at December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively) and is scheduled to mature on May 31, 1997, at which time the outstanding amount would be converted into a term loan payable in twelve equal quarterly installments. However, at the request of the Company, the bank may extend the revolving credit agreement for successive one year periods based upon a review of the previous year-end audited consolidated financial statements. The Company's accounts receivable, contract rights and inventories are pledged as collateral to the agreement.
The term loan from the bank was used by the Company to purchase and renovate its new corporate headquarters in 1994. The interest rate on this loan at December 31, 1994 was 8.75%. In January 1995, the Company repaid the term loan with a portion of the proceeds of $6,100,000 of the 1995 Industrial Development Authority Revenue Bonds (the "Bonds"). Principal payments under the agreement with the Industrial Development Authority begin in December 1996. Repayment of the Bonds is secured by an irrevocable letter of credit issued by an Alabama bank in an amount up to $6.2 million which in turn is secured by a mortgage on the Montgomery and Troy, Alabama facilities and a security interest in the equipment located at such facilities. Property and equipment with a carrying value of $8,205,000 and $7,744,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1995, respectively, are pledged as collateral. The agreement with the Industrial Development Authority bears interest at a variable market rate which ranged from 5.77% to 6.33% during 1995, and was 5.87% at December 31, 1995.
The credit agreements referenced above include various provisions requiring the maintenance of certain financial ratios and limitations on (i) transactions with affiliates, (ii) other debt and guarantees, (iii) investment in, and advances to, other entities, and (iv) payment of dividends. On December 12, 1995, the Company received waivers from the bank of certain financial covenant violations existing at September 30, 1995 and amendments of such covenants for future periods through December 31, 1996. There were no financial covenant violations as of December 31, 1995. The amendments prohibit payment of dividends as long as waivers are required of certain financial covenants. Thereafter, the Company's bank loan agreement permits the Company to pay annual dividends of up to 50% of the prior year's net income.
In connection with an acquisition (see Note 6), the Company agreed to pay annual minimum royalty payments of $200,000, $400,000, $500,000 and $600,000, which began in October, 1995. The Company recorded this obligation based on the present value of those payments using a 15% discount rate.
The aggregate maturities of long-term debt subsequent to December 31, 1995 are as follows:
Year Ending December 31, ------------------------
1996 $ 528,000 1997 2,403,000 1998 4,008,000 1999 3,745,000 2000 2,057,000 Thereafter 4,740,000 -----------
Total $17,481,000 ===========
It is not practicable to estimate the fair value of the minimum royalty payments because quoted market prices do not exist for similar type instruments. The fair value of other long-term debt approximated the carrying value as of December 31, 1995.
8. INCOME TAXES ------------
The provision (benefit) for income taxes consists of the following:
1993 1994 1995 ---- ---- ---- Current: Federal $ 87,000 $(2,450,000) $ - State 124,000 162,000 - Deferred (736,000) (1,137,000) - --------- ----------- -------------
Total $(525,000) $(3,425,000) $ - ========== =========== =============
The deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 1994 and 1995 are comprised of the following:
