ITEM 1. BUSINESS
GENERAL
ELXSI Corporation (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation that was formed in September 1980 as Trilogy Limited, a Bermuda corporation. The Company changed its name to ELXSI Ltd. in January 1987, and changed its incorporation from Bermuda to Delaware and became known as ELXSI Corporation in August 1987. A public company since November 1983, the Company acquired ELXSI ("ELXSI"), a California corporation, in October 1985. In December 1987, the Company's other California subsidiary, Trilogy Systems Corporation was merged into ELXSI.
In September 1989 and January 1990, the Company entered into Stock and Note Purchase Agreements (the "Stock Purchase Agreement") with and among, The Airlie Group L.P. ("Airlie"), Continental Illinois Equity Corporation ("CIEC") and Milley & Company ("M&C"), (hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Buyers") whereby the Buyers acquired 960,000 shares (par value $.001 per share ("Common Stock"), $2,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company's notes and warrants to purchase 1,204,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock. Subsequent to these transactions, the Company announced its intention of pursuing a program of identifying, acquiring and managing middle-market companies. The Company is not limiting its opportunities to any single industry.
On July 1, 1991, ELXSI acquired 30 restaurants operating under the Bickford's or Bickford's Family Fare names and 12 Howard Johnson's restaurants operating under the Howard Johnson's name, which were located in Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Connecticut, from Marriott Family Restaurants, Inc. for a purchase price of approximately $23,867,000, including fees.
Between 1991 and 1994, ELXSI sold six of its Howard Johnson's restaurants and converted five of the remaining six Howard Johnson's into Bickford's Family Restaurants. During the same time period, ELXSI opened six new Bickford's Family Restaurants.
During 1995, ELXSI opened one new Bickford's Family Restaurant and on July 3, 1995 acquired sixteen Abdow's Family Restaurants ("Abdow's") located in western Massachusetts and Connecticut for approximately $3,800,000, including fees. During the third and fourth quarters of 1995 and the first quarter of 1996, ELXSI converted four of the Abdow's into Bickford's Family Restaurants and completed negotiations to sell the Vernon, Connecticut Abdow's Restaurant for approximately $1,225,000. This sale was completed on February 1, 1996. Currently, ELXSI operates forty-six Bickford's Family Restaurants ("Bickford's"), eleven Abdow's and one Howard Johnson's Restaurant, in its Bickford's Family Restaurant division (the "Bickford's Division" or "Restaurant Division"). As used herein the term "Restaurants" refers to Bickford's and/or Abdow's and/or Howard Johnson's restaurants owned and operated in the Restaurant Division.
On October 30, 1992, ELXSI acquired Cues, Inc., of Orlando, Florida and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Knopafex, Ltd., of Toronto, Canada, and Cues B.V., of Maastricht, The Netherlands. The Cues business in the United States is owned and operated as a division of ELXSI, and such division, Knopafex Ltd. and Cues B.V. are hereinafter collectively referred to as "Cues" or the "Cues Division".
Cues is principally engaged in the manufacture and servicing of video inspection and rehabilitation equipment for wastewater and drainage systems primarily for governmental municipalities, service contractors and industrial users.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT INDUSTRY SEGMENTS
Reference is made to the information set forth in Note 12 (Segment Reporting) to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein, which information is hereby incorporated by reference herein.
RESTAURANT DIVISION
The Restaurants are family-oriented and offer full service and relatively inexpensive meals. Featuring a breakfast menu available throughout the day, the Restaurants appeal to customers who are interested in a casual, low-to moderately-priced meal. The Company has been successful at marketing the breakfast menu concept to customers regardless of the time of day, and has expanded lunch and dinner patronage by also offering improved traditional lunch and dinner items. Most menu items are priced between $2.75 and $7.25, with the average customer check being approximately $5.12, $4.96 and $4.74 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Major categories of menu items are pancakes, waffles and french toast, eggs and omelettes, "country" dinners, soups and side orders, salads, hamburgers and sandwiches, and desserts. Breakfast items and coffee accounted for approximately 73% of food sales.
Each Restaurant is open seven days a week, with most generally open from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. during the week and later on weekends and with some open twenty-four hours on the weekends. Some Restaurants are open twenty-four hours every day. Approximately 60% of weekly sales volume is generated Friday through Sunday.
While the Company believes that the Restaurants appeal to a wide variety of customers, they primarily cater to senior citizens and families which are attracted to the high-quality, moderately-priced meals. Each Restaurant generally draws its customers from within a five-mile radius and, consequently, repeat business is extremely important to the Restaurant Division's success. Repeat business accounts for a majority of the Restaurant's sales.
Each of the original thirty Bickford's consists of a free standing building that covers approximately 2,700 to 7,000 square feet, and they are typically located adjacent to major roads and highways and shopping malls. Nearly all contain two dining areas, smoking and non-smoking. At December 31, 1995, twelve of the Bickford's buildings are owned, while the remaining thirty-two
are a combination of leased or owned buildings on leased land. All of the Abdow's acquired in 1995 are leased properties, all but two of which consist of free standing buildings covering approximately 4,000 to 6,000 square feet. The Howard Johnson's restaurant is a leased property.
Each Restaurant has a kitchen equipped with grill space and ovens for service of baked foods. Seating capacity ranges from 100 to 200 people. Five of the Bickford's provide counter service.
Restaurant Expansion and Renovation
The acquisition by ELXSI provided an opportunity to renovate the existing locations and to acquire additional Restaurants. Capital expenditures during the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 were as follows:
1995 1994 1993 ------------ ------------ ------------ Expansion $ 221,000 $ 485,000 $ 914,000 Conversions 243,000 86,000 -- Purchase Leased Property -- 346,000 -- Renovation 415,000 95,000 289,000 Refurbishment & Equipment 1,088,000 1,003,000 463,000 ------------ ------------ ------------ $ 1,967,000 $ 2,015,000 $ 1,666,000
Acquisition of Abdow's Restaurants $ 2,575,000 $ -- $ -- ============ ============ ============
The Company currently plans to spend $1,650,000 for renovations, refurbishments and equipment replacements, $600,000 for conversions and $450,000 for Restaurant expansion during 1996.
The Company believes that increased profitability of the Restaurants will come mainly from gaining market share by continuing its programs to improve food products and service, and through its programs of remodeling existing units, opening new units and to a lesser extent, from price increases. The Company believes that it is partially due to the foregoing that sales at the original thirty Bickford's have increased. The 1995 comparison with 1994 is negatively impacted by the inclusion of a 53rd week in 1994 and only 52 weeks in 1995. Sales at the original thirty Bickford's increased 1.3% in 1995, 6.1% in 1994 (including a 53rd week) and 5.8% in 1993, in each case, over the prior year's sales; customer counts at the original thirty Bickford's Restaurants decreased 1.8% in 1995, increased 1.5% in 1994 (including a 53rd week) and increased 3.9% in 1993, in each case, over the prior year's counts; sales at same Restaurants, including the five converted and one remaining Howard Johnson's units, decreased .4% in 1995, increased 5.8% in 1994 (including a 53rd week) and increased 5.9% in 1993, in both cases, over the prior year's sales, and customer counts at same Restaurants decreased 3.4% in 1995, increased 1.2% in 1994 (including a 53rd week) and increased 4.3% in 1993, in each case, over the prior year's counts.
The Company takes an opportunistic approach to expansion. Management evaluates both purchase and lease opportunities, and, in most instances, new Restaurants will be opened utilizing leased properties. The Company will open a new Restaurant only if it can reasonably be expected to meet the Company's return on investment criteria.
Restaurant Management and Supervision
Each Restaurant has a manager and one to three assistant managers, at least one of whom must be on duty at all times during restaurant hours. The managers are responsible for hiring all personnel at the Restaurant level, managing the payroll and employee hours and ordering necessary food and supplies. Subsequent to the Abdow's acquisition, the Bickford's Division has nine district managers who, between them, cover all the Restaurants. The district managers are responsible for the complete operation of the Restaurants located in assigned geographical areas, including responsibility for sales, profits and all operational policies and procedures. The district managers, managers and assistant managers are all salaried personnel, but are also compensated with performance incentives which can provide a significant portion of their total compensation. Bonuses paid under the program are based principally upon monthly sales volume, attainment of certain cost targets and store profitability.
Sources and Availability of Materials
Food supplies are distributed by various Company-approved wholesalers and purveyors, which deliver directly to the Restaurant locations. Essential supplies and raw materials are available from several sources, and the Company is not dependent upon any one supplier for its food supplies. The Company does not maintain or engage in any warehousing or commissary operations.
Seasonality
The Restaurants experience slightly higher revenues in the summer months.
Customers
The Restaurants are not dependent upon a single customer or group of customers, although a large portion of each Restaurant's customers live within a five mile radius thereof and, accordingly, repeat customers are important to the Bickford's Division's success.
Competition
The Restaurants are in direct competition with many local restaurants providing family-oriented meals, some of which are owned, operated and/or franchised by national and regional chains. The restaurant business is highly competitive with respect to price, service, location and food quality. The Company believes that its attention to quality and service, along with low-to-moderately-priced menu items, will continue to attract customers. In 1995, the Company noticed an increase
in the number of restaurants offering buffet style dining in New England. The Company believes that the freshness of its food and its reasonable pricing compare favorable to these buffet concepts.
Employees
As of December 31, 1995, the Restaurant Division employed approximately 2,500 persons, of whom approximately 2,050 were part-time hourly employees, approximately 230 were full-time hourly employees and approximately 220 were salaried personnel. This represents an increase since December 31, 1994 of approximately 750 persons, which increase consists mainly of part-time employees as a result of the Abdow's acquisition. None of the employees are represented by unions.
Environmental Matters
The Restaurant Division is subject to various federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations relating to the protection of the environment that are typical for companies in its industry. Management believes that it complies with all such rules and that it has no material effect on its capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.
CUES DIVISION
Cues manufactures systems which utilize closed circuit television and highly specialized rehabilitation equipment to inspect and repair underground sewer lines. The infiltration of groundwater into sewer pipelines through leaking joints and pipe fractures burdens the capacity of sewage treatment plants by increasing the volume of fluids being treated. Leaking joints and pipe fractures can also contribute to sewer line damage which can be repaired, in severe cases, only by costly excavation. Cues installs its systems in specially designed trucks and vans which are sold as mobile units. Cues also provides product servicing and replacement parts for its customers and distributes chemical grout sealants used in connection with its sealing equipment. The principal customers of Cues are municipalities and contractors engaged in sewer inspection and repair. Cues is not engaged in the service business of maintaining and repairing sewer lines.
Inspection and Sealing Equipment
Cues's inspection and sealing equipment constitutes an integrated system that combines the capability of inspecting underground sewer lines with remote control television cameras creating a permanent maintenance record of the condition of the sewer lines; pressure testing sewer line joints; and applying chemical sealants to repair leaking joints and small pipe fractures.
Cues's inspection and sealing systems are placed in sewer lines through manholes. The module and the television camera, which is a part of the module, delays a television picture of the interior of that sewer line via cable to a monitoring station in a mobile unit above ground. The television inspection system employs a three inch diameter color camera that can be remotely adjusted for
close-up viewing of problem areas. By recording the position of the camera as it moves through the sewer lines, the Cues's inspection and sealing equipment gives the customers a permanent record of the condition of their sewer lines. If the television camera inspection of the sewer lines discloses a leaking joint or pipe fracture, the sealing portion of the module may immediately be positioned through use of the camera to make the repair. Once the module is positioned, inflatable packers seal off the line at either end of the damaged area and apply a chemical sealant which penetrates the leak or fractures as well as the earth surrounding the pipe, hardening to seal the line. The sealing module may also be used to determine the structural integrity of the joint by applying air or water pressure against the walls of the joint. This pressure test enables the customers to detect leaking joints that may not be easily detected visually.
The sealing module manufactured by Cues is used to repair sewer lines where infiltration or inflow of water occurs through leaking joints and pipe fractures. Repairs can last 20 years or more, depending upon the structural soundness of the sewer line or repaired joints. Cues's sealing equipment is not designed to repair a severely damaged or collapsed pipe, which must be excavated and replaced in the traditional manner or repaired by the use of other sewer line repair technology. However, Cues's television inspection system is often used to inspect and identify structurally deficient or collapsed sewer lines in conjunction with the use of other sewer line repair technology. Cues has also adapted its sewer line inspection equipment for use in the inspection, but not the repair of underground water wells, as well as large pipe storm drains.
Cues also manufactures and sells a line of portable T.V. inspection equipment used primarily for lateral inspection of pipes ranging in size from 2 inches to 6 inches.
Product Servicing, Replacement Parts and Chemicals
Cues provides product servicing and repair at its facilities in Orlando, Florida, Sacramento, California, Toronto, Canada and Maastricht, The Netherlands. In Orlando, Cues also maintains an inventory of replacement parts for distribution and sale to customers. Cues recorded warranty expense of approximately $255,000, $196,000 and $139,000, during the years 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
Product Development
Cues has an ongoing program to improve its existing products and to develop new products. During the twelve months ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, approximately $311,000, $287,000 and $290,000, respectively, was expended by Cues for product development, excluding the salary expense and benefits of the Cues engineering department. Although Cues holds United States patents for components of its products, management believes the expiration or invalidity of any or all of such patents will not have a material adverse effect on the business. For 1996, Cues plans to spend approximately $350,000 for product development activities.
Source and Availability of Raw Materials
Cues manufactures certain components of its system and purchases certain television camera modules, monitors, video recorders, vehicles, etc., which are readily available from a number of sources.
Cues has agreements with Orlando, Florida truck dealers to deliver truck bodies that are used in the manufacture of certain Cues's systems. Under these agreements, Cues reimburses the dealers floor plan financing costs for those vehicles held by the dealer until delivery.
Marketing
Cues markets its products and services in the United States though thirteen salesmen. In addition, technical service representatives are located in Orlando, Toronto and Maastricht. Major customers include municipalities contractors engaged in sewer line inspection and repair as well as privately-owned sewer systems. No customer accounted for more the 5% of Cues's 1995 sales. Cues participates in trade shows and uses trade magazine advertising in the marketing of its products and services. The Cues name is well established, affording it and its products wide recognition within its industry.
Outside North America, Cues markets its products in five continents, either directly or through distributors, agents or dealers. During 1995, 1994 and 1993, export sales to foreign countries represented approximately 14%, 16% and 16% of total Cues sales, respectively. Sales by Cues B.V. and Knopafex, Ltd. to foreign countries represent approximately 72%, 66% and 57% of total foreign sales in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
Competition
Competition for the type of products sold by Cues is on the basis of price, service and reliability, and management believes that it competes effectively in these respects. Management also believes that there are six companies which produce and sell products which are competitive with those produced by Cues. A significant portion of sales are generated through a bidding process initiated by municipalities. This process has become extremely price sensitive requiring Cues to meet or beat competitor's bids in order to secure sales.
Employees
At December 31, 1995, Cues had 140 full and part-time employees, none of whom was represented by a union. This includes 8 employees at Knopafex, Ltd. and 4 employees at Cues B.V.
Environmental
The Cues Division is subject to various federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations relating to the protection of the environment that are typical for companies in its industry. Management
believes that compliance therewith will have no material effect on its capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for background on the Company. In July 1989, the Company announced a major restructuring of its operations and the termination of ELXSI's development of large scale multiprocessor computer systems and cessation of manufacturing operations at its facility in San Jose, California.
The Company sold stock, notes and warrants to a group of investors in connection with its restructuring efforts. Following the sale, the Company withdrew from the computer business and now intends to continue a program of identifying, acquiring and managing middle market companies.
Both the Company's corporate functions and Cues Division have fiscal years consisting of four calendar quarters ending on December 31. The Restaurant Division's fiscal years consist of four 13-week quarters (and, accordingly, one 52-week period) ending on the last Saturday in December closest to the 31; however, this requires that every six or seven years the Restaurant Division add an extra week at the end of the fourth quarter and fiscal year.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995
The Company's 1995 revenues and expenses resulted from the operation of ELXSI's Restaurant and Cues Divisions and the Company's corporate expenses ("Corporate"). For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company's sales of $74,674,000, cost of sales of $58,347,000, selling, general and administrative expenses of $7,484,000, and depreciation and amortization of $2,206,000, yielded operating income of $6,637,000. The operating income of $6,637,000 was increased by interest income of $125,000, reduced by interest expense of $1,767,000, increased by other income of $65,000 and reduced by income taxes of $514,000 resulting in net income of $4,546,000.
Restaurant Division The Restaurants had sales of $54,270,000, cost of sales of $43,729,000, selling, general and administrative expense of $1,620,000 and depreciation and amortization expense of $1,833,000, which yielded operating income of $7,088,000. In addition, the Restaurants had $297,000 of interest expense related to the amortization of deferred financing fees and capital leases, resulting in income before taxes of $6,791,000.
Cues Division Cues had sales of $20,404,000, cost of sales of $14,618,000, selling, general and administrative expenses of $4,425,000 and depreciation and amortization expense of $373,000, which yielded operating income of $988,000. In addition, Cues had $22,000 of interest expense, $2,000 of interest income, $68,000 of other income and $4,000 of tax expense adjustments resulting in income before taxes of $1,032,000.
Corporate Corporate general and administrative expenses were $1,439,000. The major components of general and administrative expense include the management fee paid to Cadmus Corporation ("Cadmus") (see NOTE 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), the compensation accrual related to the Bickford's Phantom Stock Option Plan (see the Company's 1995 proxy statement for further information), legal expense, corporate and Bickford's audit expense and shareholder services and financial reporting expense. The services rendered by Cadmus include participating actively in the management of the Company and of ELXSI; it is through the management agreement that the Company is provided the services of many of its officers and through which those officers are compensated. Examples of management services provided include the ongoing evaluation of management, preparing and reviewing division operating budgets and plans, evaluating new restaurant locations, divesting under performing assets, negotiating environmental matters, negotiating with lenders, evaluating financing options, complying with public reporting requirements, communicating with shareholders, negotiating and arranging insurance programs, monitoring tax compliance, evaluating and approving capital spending, preparing market research, developing and improving management reporting systems, surfacing and evaluating acquisitions, etc. Interest expense was $1,448,000, consisting of senior bank debt interest of $1,275,000 and subordinated note interest of $173,000. In addition, the Company recorded interest income of $123,000, other expense of $3,000 and a consolidated tax provision of $510,000 at the corporate level.
Earnings Per Share Earnings per share and the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the year ended December 31, 1995 were $0.89 and 5,093,000, respectively. This compares to $0.79 per share for 1994, when there were 6,014,000 shares outstanding. The average stock price during 1995 and 1994 was $6.12 and $5.42, respectively. The market price at December 31, 1995 and 1994 was $6.13 and $6.34, respectively. Due to the outstanding warrants and options, which are considered common stock equivalents, a higher stock price results in a greater number of outstanding shares for the earnings per share calculation.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994
The Company's 1994 revenues and expenses resulted from the operation of ELXSI's Restaurant and Cues Divisions and from "Corporate". For the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company's sales of $62,423,000, cost of sales of $47,440,000, selling, general and administrative expenses of $6,630,000, and depreciation and amortization of $1,794,000, yielded operating income of $6,559,000.

Corporate Corporate general and administrative expenses were $1,076,000 in 1993. The major components of general and administrative expense include the management fee paid to Cadmus the compensation accrual related to the Bickford's Phantom Stock Option Plan, legal expense, corporate and Bickford's audit expense and shareholder services and financial reporting expense. Interest expense was $1,334,000, consisting of senior bank debt interest of $594,000 and senior subordinated note interest of $740,000. In addition, the Company recorded other expense of $5,000 and a consolidated tax provision of $345,000 at the corporate level.
Earnings Per Share Earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 1993 were $0.72 ($0.69 per share fully diluted). The weighted average number of shares outstanding for 1993 was 5,947,000 (6,234,000 shares fully diluted).
COMPARISON OF 1995 RESULTS TO 1994 RESULTS
The 1995 sales increased $12,251,000, or 19.6%, gross profit increased $1,344,000, or 9.0%, selling, general and administrative expense increased $854,000, or 12.9% and depreciation and amortization increased $412,000 or 23.0% resulting in an operating income increase of $78,000 or 1.2% in each case as compared to the corresponding period in 1994. Interest expense increased by $341,000, or 23.9%, interest income increased by $117,000, other income and expense increased from expense of $41,000 in 1994 to income of $65,000 in 1995 and income taxes increased by $148,000, or 40.4% resulting in a decrease in net income of $188,000, or 4.0%.
Restaurant Division Restaurant sales increased by $10,879,000, or 25.1%, in 1995. The sales increase is attributable to a decrease in the same store sales of $152,000 offset by the addition of new restaurants which added $11,031,000 to 1995 sales. The 1995 sales increase due to new restaurants consisted of $8,112,000 from the fourteen Abdow's, $873,000 from the two Abdow's converted in 1995 and $2,046,000 from other new Bickford's. Same store restaurant sales decreased by $152,000, or .4% mainly due to the inclusion of a 53rd week in 1994 which added $763,000 to those restaurants 1994 sales. The original thirty Bickford's acquired in 1991 had a sales increase of $405,000, or 1.3%, the nine other comparable Bickford's including the five converted Howard Johnson's had a sales decrease of $494,000, or 5.1%, while the one remaining Howard Johnson's unit had a sales decline of $63,000, or 4.1%. Included in the above comparisons is the effect of the fifty-third week in 1994 which added sales of $582,000, $155,000 and $26,000 to the original thirty Bickford's, the nine other comparable Bickford's and the one remaining Howard Johnson Restaurant, respectively. Excluding the 53rd week from 1994 sales, the same store restaurant sales increased by $611,000, or 1.5%.
The original thirty Bickford's, the nine other comparable Bickford's and the one Howard Johnson's Restaurant had a decrease in customer counts of 1.8%, 7.6% and 9.8%, respectively. Excluding the 53rd week from 1994, the original thirty Bickford's, the nine other comparable Bickford's and the one Howard Johnson's Restaurant had an increase (decrease) in customer counts of .1%, (6.2)% and (8.3)%, respectively. The last Howard Johnson's Restaurant is located near one of the
three Bickford's licensed to an unrelated third party and may not be converted into a Bickford's. Management is continuing to focus on improving sales at all Restaurants through attention to customer service, food quality, new menu items and Restaurant refurbishments.
Restaurant gross profit increased by $1,384,000, but declined as a percentage of sales from 21.1% in 1994 to 19.4% in 1995. The main factor in the 1.7% decline in the gross profit percentage was a 1.5% increase in food costs as a percentage of sales primarily attributable to the Abdow's. It is anticipated that upon conversion of the Abdow's into Bickford's that the food cost as a percentage of sales will decline to the Bickford's level thereby increasing the gross profit percentage. The Bickford's food costs increased as a percentage of sales as a result of the sale of higher-cost dinner items and an increase in the cost of individual food items including eggs, bacon and sausage partially offset by a decline in coffee costs. In addition to the food cost increase, variable costs as a percentage of sales increased by .4% in 1995. Labor costs as a percentage of sales declined by .2% from 34.6% to 34.4% despite higher labor costs as a percentage of sales at the sixteen Abdow's. The sixteen Abdow's (including the two converted into Bickford's) had labor costs as a percentage of sales of 37.2%. Management does not intend to reduce the labor costs immediately upon conversion of the Abdow's into Bickford's and will evaluate the benefits of additional labor as evidenced by the excellent service reputation historically enjoyed by the Abdow's. However, as management intends to keep up to six of the acquired restaurants operating as lower margin Abdow's, the overall margins will continue to be negatively influenced by the Abdow's.
Restaurant selling, general and administrative expense increased by $327,000 during 1995 over 1994 mainly as a result of adding additional support personnel as a result of the acquisition of the Abdow's.
Restaurant depreciation and amortization increased by $373,000 during 1995 compared to 1994. Restaurant depreciation and amortization will continue to increase each year with the addition of new Restaurants or until such time as assets valued and recorded at the date of the restaurant acquisition in July 1991 become fully depreciated. The equipment acquired in that acquisition has a seven year useful life, and will become fully depreciated in 1998.
As a result of the above, Restaurant operating income increased by $684,000 in 1995 compared to the fifty three weeks ended December 31, 1994. Management estimates that the inclusion of a 53rd week in 1994 added approximately $200,000 to operating income that year.
Cues Division. Cues's sales increased by $1,372,000, or 7.2%, in 1995 compared to 1994. As a percentage of sales, Cues's gross profit declined by 2.3% in 1995 compared to 1994 causing gross profit to decrease by $40,000. Operating income was negatively impacted by an increase in selling, general and administrative expense of $279,000 and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $39,000. As a result of the above, operating income decreased by $358,000 in 1995 compared to 1994. Management anticipates that gross and operating margins will continue to experience pressure in 1996 due to the fact that Cues's customers continue to stress pricing factors in awarding contracts through the competitive bidding process.
Corporate. Corporate general and administrative expenses increased by $248,000 during 1995 as compared to 1994, mainly due to an increase in the Bickford's management compensation accrual related to its Phantom Stock Option Plan. Interest expense increased by $320,000 in 1995 compared to 1994, due to a higher average debt balance in 1995 partially offset by a decrease in interest rates in 1995. The higher average debt balance in 1995 was the result of spending approximately $3.8 million to purchase Abdow's Restaurants and $7.4 million to purchase the Company's common stock, warrants to purchase common stock and subordinated notes at the end of 1994 and beginning of 1995. The bank interest rate applicable to Company borrowing was 1% above the prime lending rate or 9.5% at December 31, 1995 and 1.5% above the prime lending rate or 10.0% at December 31, 1994.
COMPARISON OF 1994 RESULTS TO 1993 RESULTS
The 1994 sales increased $6,741,000, or 12.1%, gross profit increased $639,000, or 4.5%, selling, general and administrative expense increased $224,000, or 3.5% and depreciation and amortization increased $205,000 or 12.9% resulting in an operating income increase of $210,000 or 3.3% in each case as compared to the corresponding period in 1993. Interest expense decreased by $227,000, or 13.7%, interest income increased by $8,000, or 100%, other expense decreased by $39,000, or 48.8% and income taxes increased by $18,000, or 5.2% resulting in an increase in net income of $466,000, or 10.9%.
Restaurant Division Restaurant sales increased by $4,488,000, or 11.5%, in 1994, which, included a 53rd week. Including the 53rd week in 1994, the original thirty Bickford's acquired in 1991 had a sales increase of $1,791,000, or 6.1%, and the five converted Howard Johnson's had a sales increase of $399,000, or 6.6%, while the one remaining Howard Johnson's unit had a sales decline of $51,000, or 3.2%. New Restaurants accounted for the remaining portion of the sales increase, totalling $2,349,000. The sales increase is mainly attributable to an increase in the average guest check ($1,694,000), the addition of new restaurants ($2,375,000) and the inclusion of a 53rd week in 1994 ($810,000), partially offset by a customer count decline ($391,000). Including the 53rd week, the original thirty Bickford's had a 1.5% increase in customer counts, the five converted Howard Johnson's Restaurants had a 1.8% increase in customer counts, while the one Howard Johnson's Restaurant had a 7.1% decline in customer counts.
Restaurant gross profit increased by $406,000, but declined as a percentage of sales from 22.5% in 1993 to 21.1% in the 53 weeks ended December 31, 1994. The main factor in the 1.4% decline in the gross profit percentage was a .8% increase in food costs as a percentage of sales, which was primarily attributable to the sale of higher-cost dinner items and an increase in coffee prices during 1994. Other factors that contributed to the decrease in the gross margin were a .4% increase in labor costs due to increases in taxes, medical insurance and workers compensation insurance premiums and a .4% increase in fixed costs consisting mainly of increases in real estate taxes as a result of receiving and recording in 1993 tax abatements for 1993 and prior years.
Restaurant selling, general and administrative expense increased by $45,000 during 1994 over 1993. No individual items represented a major portion of the increase.
Restaurant depreciation and amortization increased by $172,000 during 1994 compared to 1993.
As a result of the above, Restaurant operating income increased by $189,000 for the 53 weeks ended December 31, 1994 compared to 1993. Management estimates that the inclusion of a 53rd week in 1994 added approximately $200,000 to operating income that year.
Cues Division Cues's sales increased by $2,253,000, or 13.4%, in 1994 compared to 1993. As a percentage of sales, Cues's gross profit declined by 2.7% in 1994 compared to 1993. Despite the decline in the gross profit percentage, Cues's gross profit increased by $233,000. This was partially offset by a $64,000 increase in selling, general and administrative expense and a $33,000 increase in depreciation and amortization expense. As a result of the above, operating income increased by $136,000 in 1994 compared to 1993.
Corporate Corporate general and administrative expenses increased by $115,000 during 1994 as compared to 1993, mainly due to an increase in the Bickford's management compensation accrual related to its Phantom Stock Option Plan, an increase in professional fees and corporate move-related costs. Interest expense decreased by $206,000 in 1994 as compared to 1993, due to lower debt balances partially offset by a higher average bank interest borrowing rate in 1994. The borrowing rate remained at prime plus 1.5% during 1994, however the prime rate increased by 2.5% from 6% at January 1, 1994 to 8.5% at December 31, 1994.
ACQUISITIONS
On July 3, 1995, ELXSI acquired 16 Abdow's Family Restaurants from Abdow Corporation of Springfield, MA for a price of approximately $3,800,000 including estimated expenses of $300,000. The transaction includes the leasing of 16 restaurant sites and the purchase of associated assets located in western Massachusetts and central Connecticut. On February 1, 1996, ELXSI completed its sales of the Vernon, Connecticut Abdow's restaurant for net proceeds of $1,225,000.
ELXSI purchased Cues on October 30, 1992. In connection with the acquisition, the Company issued 751,000 shares of it's Common Stock valued at $4.25 per share and a Series C Warrant to purchase an additional 68,762 common shares at $4.36 per share to the former parent of Cues. In addition, ELXSI borrowed $4,211,000 on its amended bank line of credit to pay the outstanding debt of Cues to its former parent. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and the results of Cues are included in the consolidated statement of operations from the date of acquisition. The excess of the cost over the fair value of net assets acquired of $3,690,000 is being amortized on a straight line basis over 35 years. The acquisition included all of the assets and liabilities of Cues, and its subsidiaries. The shares and warrants issued in this acquisition were subsequently distributed by Cues's former parent to is stockholders, including Milley Management, Inc.
On July 1, 1991, ELXSI acquired the Restaurants, which are located in Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Connecticut, from Marriott for a purchase price of approximately $23,867,000, including fees. The Bickford's and Howard Johnson's are family oriented restaurants with a wide ranging, moderately priced menu, with a focus on breakfast fare.
INCOME TAXES AND INFLATION
In 1995, the Company recorded a provision for federal alternative minimum taxes of $118,000 (after the benefit of federal net operating loss carryforwards of $1,619,000), and a state income tax provision of $396,000 (after the benefit of state net operating loss carryforwards). In 1994, the Company recorded a provision for federal alternative minimum taxes of $88,000 (after the benefit of federal net operating loss carryforwards of $1,526,000), and a state income tax provision of $278,000 (after the benefit of state net operating loss carryforwards). In 1993, the Company recorded a provision for federal alternative minimum taxes of $116,000 (after the benefit of federal net operating loss carryforwards of $1,615,000), and a state income tax provision of $232,000 (after the benefit of state net operating loss carryforwards). Approximately one-half of ELXSI's consolidated taxable income is apportioned to Massachusetts. The final year that the net operating loss is available to ELXSI to offset Massachusetts taxable income was 1994 because the five year Massachusetts carryforward period expired in 1995. During 1994 and 1993, ELXSI would have recorded a provision for additional state income taxes of $190,000 and $230,000, respectively, had the Massachusetts net operating loss carryforwards not been available. At December 31, 1995, the Company had approximately $221,000,000 in federal net operating loss carryforwards, which begin to expire in 1997 if not used. In addition, the Company had $6,500,000 in investment tax credit and research and development credit carryforwards available to reduce future federal income taxes.
Inflation and changing prices have not had a material impact on the Company's results of operations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Available Resources The Company's consolidated unrestricted cash positions at December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $0. The Company has instituted a cash management system whereby the net cash generated by operations is immediately used to reduce bank debt. The immediate reduction of outstanding debt provides the Company with a reduction in interest expense greater than the interest income that the cash could earn from alternative investments. Working capital needs, when they arise, are met by daily borrowings.
During 1995, the Company had cash flow from operations before working capital and other changes of $7,032,000. Working capital changes and other assets and liabilities decreased cash flow from operations to $4,003,000, which along with a net borrowing of $2,334,000 in long-term debt funded the purchase of property, plant and equipment totalling $2,357,000 (including the one new Restaurant opened in 1995), the net cost of acquiring the fifteen Abdow's totalling $2,575,000, the repurchase of Common Stock of $1,224,000, the payment of bank fees of $125,000 and the principal payments on capital leases of $56,000. The $2,334,000 net borrowing of long-term debt consists of borrowing of bank debt of $2,429,000, payment of other Cues's debt of $12,000 and repayment of long-term 15% Senior Subordinated Notes ("15% Notes") of $83,000. During 1995, current assets increased by $4,034,000 primarily due to an increase in Cues's inventory and the recording of an asset held for sale at December 31, 1995 related to the
Vernon, Connecticut Abdow's restaurant. The December 31, 1995 balance included in the asset held for sale of $1,075,000 was collected on February 1, 1996. Inventory increased due to the introduction and development of new products and an increase in equipment used for demonstrations. The increase in current assets was partially offset by an increase in current liabilities of $647,000 (excluding the current portion of the long-term debt and current portion of long-term capital leases).
During 1994, the Company had cash flow from operations before working capital and other changes of $6,730,000. Working capital changes and other assets and liabilities increased cash flow from operations to $6,871,000, which along with a net borrowing of $225,000 in long-term debt funded the acquisition of property, plant and equipment totalling $2,363,000 (including the two new Restaurants opened in 1994), a loan to ELX Limited Partnership ("ELX") of which Alexander M. Milley is the sole general partner of $1,156,000, the repurchase of Common Stock and seven-year Series A Warrants to purchase Common Stock of $3,499,000 and the payment of bank fees of $109,000. The $225,000 net borrowing of long-term debt consists of borrowing of bank debt of $3,427,000, borrowing of other Cues's debt of $19,000 and repayment of long-term 14.5% Senior Subordinated Notes ("14.5% Notes") and 15% Notes of $3,221,000. During 1994, current assets increased by $286,000 primarily due to an increase in Cues's inventory partially offset by a decline in Cues's accounts receivable and a decrease in Bickford's Division prepaid expenses. Inventory increased due to increased monthly production volume caused by increased sales orders at Cues and the introduction and development of new products. The increase in current assets was partially offset by an increase in current liabilities of $136,000 (excluding the current portion of the long-term debt and current portion of long-term capital leases).
During 1993, the Company had cash flow from operations before working capital and other changes of $6,032,000. Working capital changes and other assets and liabilities reduced cash flow from operations to $4,023,000, which funded the acquisition of property, plant and equipment totalling $1,856,000 (including the three new Restaurants opened in 1993), the payment of long-term bank debt of $1,946,000, the payment of other Cues debt of $189,000 and the payment of capital leases obligations of $32,000. During 1993, current assets increased by $2,675,000 primarily due to an increase in Cues's accounts receivable and inventory. The increase in accounts receivable was mainly attributable to current accounts receivable (i.e., those accounts less than 30 days old), which increased by $571,000 at December 31, 1993 as compared to December 31, 1992. The percentage of accounts greater than sixty days old decreased from 26% at December 31, 1992 to 24% at December 31, 1993. Cues's inventory increased due to increased monthly production volume caused by increased sales orders and the introduction and development of new products. The increase in current assets was partially offset by an increase in current liabilities of $813,000.
Future Needs For and Sources of Capital Management believes that cash generated by operations is sufficient to fund current operations including the interest payments on the senior bank debt and interest payments on the remaining $1,187,000 of 14.5% Notes and 15% Notes. With bank approval, excess funds are available under the Company's loan Agreement to finance additional acquisitions.

ELXSI CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1995
NOTE 1. The Company
General Prior to 1990, ELXSI Corporation (together with its subsidiary, the "Company") operated principally through its wholly-owned California subsidiary, ELXSI. During that period, the principal business of ELXSI was the design, manufacture, sale and support of minisupercomputers. In July 1989, the Company announced a major restructuring of its computer operations. In September 1989, the Company discontinued all computer operations.
In September 1989 and January 1990, the Company entered into agreements with, and between, The Airlie Group L.P. ("Airlie"), Continental Illinois Equity Corporation ("CIEC") and Milley & Company ("M&C"), (hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Buyers") whereby the Buyers acquired 960,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock for $3,000,000 in cash. In addition, the Buyers loaned the Company $2,000,000 (see Note 6). Subsequent to these transactions, the Company announced its intention of pursuing an active program of identifying, acquiring and managing middle market companies.
On July 1, 1991, ELXSI acquired thirty Bickford's Restaurants and twelve Howard Johnson's Restaurants, which are located in Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Connecticut , from Marriott Family Restaurants, Inc.
During 1992, ELXSI sold six of its Howard Johnson's Restaurants, converted four others into Bickford's Restaurants and opened one new Bickford's Restaurant. During 1993, ELXSI opened three new Bickford's Restaurants. During 1994, ELXSI opened two new Bickford's Restaurants and converted one of its two remaining Howard Johnson's Restaurants into a Bickford's Restaurant. During 1995, ELXSI opened one new Bickford's Restaurant, acquired sixteen Abdow's Family Restaurants ("Abdows") and converted two of the Abdows into Bickford's Restaurants. As of December 31, 1995, ELXSI operated forty-four Bickford's, fourteen Abdows and one Howard Johnson's Restaurant, (the "Restaurants" or the "Restaurant Division").
On October 30, 1992, ELXSI acquired Cues, Inc. of Orlando, Florida and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries Knopafex, Ltd., a Canadian company, and Cues B.V., a Dutch company, together referred to as ("Cues").
Cues is engaged in the manufacture and servicing of video inspection and repair equipment for wastewater and drainage systems primarily for governmental municipalities, service contractors and industrial users.
NOTE 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ELXSI Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Both the Company's corporate functions and Cues Division have fiscal years consisting of four calendar quarters ending on December 31. The Restaurant Division's fiscal year consists of four 13-week quarters (one 52-week period) ending on the last Saturday in December closest to the 31; however, this requires that every six or seven years the Restaurant Division add an extra week at the end of the fourth quarter and fiscal year.
Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company has instituted a cash management system whereby cash generated by operations is immediately used to reduce debt. Accordingly the Company maintains no cash or cash equivalents.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amount of accounts and note receivable, asset held for sale, accounts and drafts payable, accrued expenses and long-term debt approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments and the variable nature of the interest rates associated with the debt.
Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market determined by the first-in, first-out method.
Property, Buildings and Equipment Property, buildings and equipment, including buildings under capital leases, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method for book purposes. Buildings held pursuant to capital leases are amortized over the shorter of the term of the respective lease including options or the estimated useful life. The estimated lives used are:
Buildings and improvements 30 years Equipment, furniture and fixtures 7 years
Depreciation and amortization expense for 1995, 1994 and 1993 was $2,018,000, $1,614,000 and $1,409,000, respectively.
Intangibles The excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired is being amortized over 35 years using the straight-line method. Amortization expense for 1995, 1994 and 1993 was $153,000, $151,000 and $151,000, respectively. Management periodically reviews the potential impairment of intangible assets in order to determine the proper carrying value of such intangible assets as of each consolidated balance sheet presented.
Trademarks are being amortized over 35 years using the straight-line method. Amortization expense for 1995, 1994 and 1993 was $35,000, $29,000 and $29,000, respectively.
Deferred Debt Costs Deferred debt costs are amortized over the term of the loan to interest expense using the effective interest method. As of December 31, 1995 and 1994, $212,000 and $322,000, respectively remain to be amortized over future periods. Amortization expense in 1995, 1994 and 1993 was $213,000, $126,000 and $157,000, respectively.
Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of the Canadian and Dutch subsidiaries of Cues are translated into U.S. dollars at year end exchange rates, and revenue and expense items are translated at average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. Resulting translation adjustments are accumulated in a separate component of stockholders' equity.
Income Taxes The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Number 109 "Accounting For Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"). This Statement provides for accounting for taxes under an asset and liability approach. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of other assets and liabilities. Temporary differences giving rise to deferred tax assets and liabilities include certain accrued liabilities and net operating loss carryforwards. The provision for income taxes includes the amount of income taxes payable for the year as determined by applying the provisions of the current tax law to the taxable income for the year and the net change during the year in the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities (see Note 5).
Advertising Advertising costs, included in selling, general and administrative expense, are expensed as incurred and were $862,000, $753,000 and $558,000 in 1995, 1994 and 1993.
Net Income Per Common Share Net income per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common and, when dilutive, common equivalent shares outstanding during the respective periods.
NOTE 3. Acquisitions
On July 3, 1995, ELXSI acquired Abdow's Family Restaurants from Abdow Corporation of Springfield, MA, for a price of approximately $3,800,000 including estimated expenses of approximately $300,000. The transaction includes the leasing of 16 restaurant sites and the purchase of associated assets located in western Massachusetts and central Connecticut. ELXSI intends to convert most of the Abdows locations into Bickford's Restaurants over the next 12 to 18 months. Shortly after the acquisition, ELXSI negotiated the sale of the Vernon, Connecticut Abdow's Restaurant for a net sales price of approximately $1,225,000, which approximated the fair market value of the Restaurant on the date of its acquisition by ELXSI. The balance receivable from the sale is reflected as an asset held for sale at December 31, 1995. The balance of the purchase price of $2,575,000 was allocated to the equipment, leasehold improvements and leasehold interests of the remaining fifteen Abdow's restaurants. The sale of the Vernon Connecticut, Abdows Restaurant was consummated on February 1, 1996.
The acquisition was financed by an increase in ELXSI's existing line of credit with the Bank of America Illinois, which was extended to June 30, 1997. The total available credit on July 3, 1995 was increased to $15,840,000. The minimum monthly reductions in available credit were increased from $220,000 per month to $280,000 per month from July to December 1995 and $3,330,000 annually thereafter.

The Company also has investment tax credit carryforwards of approximately $3.2 million, research and development tax credit carryforwards of approximately $3.3 million and minimum tax credit carryforwards of approximately $230,000.

The Company recorded as paid-in-capital (relating to the warrants) a discount of $301,000 to reflect a valuation of $0.25 per warrant which was determined by the Company to represent the fair market value of the warrants at the inception of the Agreement. The warrants have an exercise price of $3.125 per share, are immediately exercisable, and expire on September 25, 1996. The notes bear interest at 15% payable quarterly, commencing on November 15, 1989. Principal is to be repaid in five annual $400,000 installments commencing on September 25, 1995.

In January 1990, CIEC purchased from Airlie 220,400 shares of the Company's Common Stock as well as $402,000 principal amount of notes. In addition, the Company and Airlie modified the warrants, described above, for the purchase of 1,053,500 shares of the Common Stock of the Company, in that such warrants were exchanged for two warrants, one exercisable for 811,638 shares of Common Stock and the second exercisable for 24,186 shares of the Company's Series A Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock, which is convertible, under certain specified conditions, into 241,862 shares of the Common Stock. The Series A Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock carries a liquidation preference of $0.002 per share and does not have voting rights, but otherwise has substantially the same rights as the Common Stock. Following the issuance of the two warrants, the second warrant was sold by Airlie to CIEC. In addition, in connection with such purchases, the option previously granted by Airlie to ELX was amended to be exercisable for
369,800 shares of Common Stock, and an option to purchase 110,200 shares of Common Stock at a price of $3.125 per share was granted by CIEC to ELX.

In addition, Cadmus Corporation ("Cadmus"), whose President and principal owner is Alexander M. Milley, purchased $125,000 of the senior subordinated notes from Airlie. The remaining $375,000 was purchased by three unrelated entities.
