ESPEY MFG. & ELECTRONICS CORP. Notes to Financial Statements _______ 1. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 1996, and the results of operations for each of the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 and cash flows for each of the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. 2. The earnings per share computations for September 30, 1996 were based on 1,114,610 shares and on 1,341,350 shares for September 30, 1995. These represent the average number of shares outstanding for each respective period. 3. Other income consists principally of interest on Certificates of Deposit, Treasury Bills and money market accounts. 4. There were no material unusual charges or credits to operations or a change in accountants during the most recently completed quarter which would require the filing of a Form 8-K. 5. There were no securities sold by the Company during the current quarter which were not registered under the Securities Act of 1934 in reliance upon an exemption from registration provided in Section 4 (2) of the Act. 6. For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. 7. In fiscal 1989 the Company established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) for eligible non-union employees. The ESOP used the proceeds of a loan from the Company to purchase 316,224 shares of the Company's common stock for approximately $8.4 million and the Company contributed approximately $400,000 to the ESOP which was used by the ESOP to purchase an additional 15,000 shares of the Company's common stock. - 5 - The loan from the Company to the ESOP is repayable in annual installments of $1,039,605, including interest, through June 30, 2004. Interest is payable at a rate of 9% per annum. The Company's receivable from the ESOP is recorded as common stock subscribed in the accompanying balance sheets. Each year, the Company will make contributions to the ESOP which will be used to make loan interest and principal payments. With each loan and interest payment, a portion of the common stock will be allocated to participating employees. As of September 30, 1996 there were 132,571 shares allocated to participants. 8. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of", as of July 1, 1995. This accounting standard required that certain long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. If such review indicates that the carrying value is written down to fair value. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. The adoption of this accounting standard had no effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company. - 6 - ESPEY MFG. & ELECTRONICS CORP. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Sales for the three months ended September 30, 1996 were $4,586,892 as compared to $4,000,805 for the same period in 1995. Sales volume is largely dependent on both lead times required for new orders and the specific delivery needs of our customers. Net earnings for the three month period were $228,719 or $.21 per share compared to $98,440 or $.07 per share for the corresponding period of last year. Many of the contracts shipped in the current quarter carried a somewhat higher gross profit margin than those shipped during the corresponding quarter of last year. As a result, cost of sales dropped to 85% compared to the 90% reflected last year. This factor, together with the increase in sales, are the primary reasons for the increase in net profits. In an effort to continue this positive trend we have enhanced and expanded our Sales and Marketing departments. Various specifics concerning the products we are concentrating on are addressed in both the President's message acompanying our 1996 Annual Report and in our most recently filed Form 10K. Management has confidence that the Company can accomplish its goals. Selling and G & A expenses show an increase of approximately 9% during the current period. This is principally due to the reclassification of certain salaries from manufacturing expenses to general and administrative expenses. In the Statements of Cash Flows the decrease in inventories is in line with the increase in Sales. The increase in Accounts Receivable is due to a large volume of shipments made toward the end of the quarter. Most of these receivables have already been paid, and the Company feels that its reserve is adequate. Investment income declined by approximately 22% for the current three month period primarily due to a reduction in our investment base brought about by a major repurchase of our common stock during the latter part of our last fiscal year. The Company does not feel that there is any risk associated with its investment policy, since the majority of our investments are represented by U.S. Government securities, Certificates of Deposit and money market accounts. Since the debt of the Company's ESOP is not to an outside party, we have eliminated from the Statements of Earnings the offsetting items of interest income and interest expense relating to the ESOP. We have also eliminated the offsetting accruals from the Balance Sheets. -7- The Company, when possible, funds all of its operations including Financing Activities and Investing Activities with cash flows resulting from Operating Activities. It is currently felt that during the next fiscal year, funds from Operating Activities will continue to be adequate to meet these needs. For the current three month period capital expenditures were approximately $110,677. During the three month period ended September 30, 1996 the Company repurchased 7,426 shares of its common stock. Under existing authorizations, as of September 30, 1996, funds in the amount of $1,883,969 were available for the continuing repurchase of the Company's shares. The backlog as of September 30, 1995 was $18,319,247. The backlog as of September 30, 1996 was $12,218,320. Although customer order patterns are inherently difficult to predict, the Company believes that it will continue to obtain contracts consistent with our past experience. We are currently anticipating a new contract for our high power radar transmitters, which, if received, along with our other anticipated new business will result in substantially increasing our backlog. A dividend in the amount of $.70 per share was declared payable November 22, 1996 to shareholders of record on October 28, 1996. -8- ESPEY MFG. & ELECTRONICS CORP.
