Page 10 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 Effective June 30, 1999, the Company made a decision to sell Imaging Technology Division (Display Product Segment) and Nortech Medical Services (Medical Management Segment). The following management discussion related only to the continuing operation of contract manufacturing. See below, the details of discontinued operations. For the quarter ended June 30, 1999, the Company had revenues of $9,421,813 compared to revenues of $8,374,280 for the quarter ended June 30, 1998. The increase in revenues resulted primarily from the additional revenues generated from internal growth. The net income for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was $275,744 or $.12 per share, compared to a net income of $221,468 or $.09 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 1998. The net income for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 was primarily impacted by increased gross profit from the increased revenue offset by increased selling expenses. Company's 90 day order backlog was $8,590,000 as of June 30, 1999, compared to $8,575,000 at the beginning of the quarter. Based on the current conditions, the Company anticipates revenue levels in the third quarter of 1999 to be about the same as the second quarter of 1999. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. The Company's working capital increased to $9,539,075 during the second quarter of 1999, compared to $9,080,589 as of December 31, 1998. The Company believes that its financial stability will continue to improve during 1999 and would expect that its operating cash flow and available credit faculties will be sufficient to fund the expected growth in the near term. UPDATE ON YEAR 2000 STATUS Nortech Systems, Inc recognizes the dangers of the "Year 2000 Problem". To ensure a minimum negative impact on business operations, Nortech has established a Y2K Initiative. The Y2K Initiative addresses the effect on the company, our vendors and our customers. We have completed the inventory and evaluation phase, and are nearing completion of the implementation phase. Testing is nearly completed on most systems. Monitoring and evaluation will continue throughout 1999 and into 2000 until we are sure all issues have been properly resolved. Page 11 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2.
