MATERIALS FILED OR TO BE FILED BY THE COMPANY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION CONTAIN CERTAIN STATEMENTS THAT MAY BE CONSIDERED FORWARD-LOOKING.
FOR THIS PURPOSE, ANY STATEMENTS CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT THAT ARE NOT
STATEMENTS OF HISTORICAL FACT MAY BE DEEMED TO BE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.
WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WORDS SUCH AS "MAY," "WILL," "EXPECT,"
"BELIEVE," "ANTICIPATE," "UNDERSTANDING," OR "CONTINUE," THE NEGATIVE OR OTHER
VARIATION THEREOF, OR COMPARABLE TERMINOLOGY, ARE INTENDED TO IDENTIFY
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. IN ADDITION, FROM TIME TO TIME, THE COMPANY MAY
RELEASE OR PUBLISH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS RELATING TO SUCH MATTERS AS
ANTICIPATED FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE, BUSINESS PROSPECTS, TECHNOLOGICAL
DEVELOPMENTS AND SIMILAR MATTERS. THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT
OF 1995 PROVIDES A SAFE HARBOR FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. IN ORDER TO
COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF THE SAFE HARBOR, THE COMPANY NOTES THAT A VARIETY OF
FACTORS COULD CAUSE THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS AND EXPERIENCE TO DIFFER
MATERIALLY FROM THE ANTICIPATED RESULTS OR OTHER EXPECTATIONS EXPRESSED IN THE
COMPANY'S FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THESE STATEMENTS BY THEIR NATURE INVOLVE
SUBSTANTIAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, AND ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY
DEPENDING UPON A VARIETY
8
OF FACTORS, INCLUDING CONTINUED MARKET DEMAND FOR THE TYPES OF PRODUCTS AND
SERVICES PRODUCED AND SOLD BY THE COMPANY.
COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2004 TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY
31, 2003.
REVENUES - Revenues for the quarters ended May 31, 2003 and May 31, 2004 totaled
$9.9 million and $7.6 million, respectively, a decrease of $2.3 million or 23%.
The Company is near completion of significant tooling programs for both the
Mercedes-Benz M Class sports utility vehicle and a new "crossover" vehicle.
The Company's backlog of awarded contracts, which are all believed to be firm,
was approximately $7.6 million and $26.1 million as of May 31, 2004 and May 31,
2003, respectively. The Company expects all backlog contracts will be reflected
in sales during fiscal years ending August 31, 2004 and 2005. The Company
continues to see a general "softness" in the overall domestic automotive tooling
industry. The Company believes that such conditions should improve in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2004 and the first two quarters of 2005 as a result of recent
increased quoting activities. Such tooling programs may have been delayed for
many reasons including continued styling changes, production related issues as
well as the effects of the global automotive supply chain on the awarding of
contracts. The Company continues to be optimistic and is aggressively pursuing
available tooling contracts.
COST OF SALES - Total cost of goods sold was $6.7 million for the third quarter
of fiscal 2004 and $8.8 million for fiscal 2003, and as a percent of sales
decreased slightly from 89.0% for 2003 to 88.6% for 2004. Direct costs
(materials and labor) decreased by $2.0 million, from $6.4 million for 2003 to
$4.4 million for 2004. As a percent of sales, direct costs decreased from 64.8%
in 2003 to 57.5% in 2004. Engineering expense decreased by $129,000 from
$660,000 for 2003 to $531,000 for 2004. Lastly, manufacturing overhead increased
by $100,000 from $1.7 million for 2003 to $1.8 million for 2004. As a percent of
sales, manufacturing overhead expense increased from 17.5% in 2003 to 24.1% in
2004 as a result of lower revenue levels to absorb fixed manufacturing overhead
expense. Additional details of these changes in cost of sales for the third
quarters of fiscal 2003 and 2004 are as follows:
- Direct materials expense decreased from $1.9 million for the third
quarter of 2003 to $763,000 for 2004 and as a percent of sales, decreased
from 19.2% to 10.0%. This decrease was a result of lower material
requirements for current tooling contracts. Outside services expense
decreased from $2.8 million for 2003 to $1.9 million for 2004 and as a
percent of sales from 28.4% to 25.5%. This decrease was largely due to the
Company incurring $734,000 less in expense related to its outsourced
revenue in the third quarter of 2004. The balance of the outside services
expense decreased from $448,000 to $301,000 as a result of the Company
outsourcing less of certain manufacturing processes in the third quarter
of 2004.
- Direct labor expense remained consistent at $1.7 million for 2003
and 2004 and as a percent of sales increased from 17.2% to 22.0%. During
the third quarter of 2004 the Company incurred a 1% decrease in direct
labor hours, from 83,000 hours in 2003 to 82,000 in 2004. Of the total
direct labor expense, regular or straight time decreased by $25,000
however as a percent of sales it increased from 10.7% for 2003 to 13.7%
for 2004. Overtime expense decreased slightly from $644,000 for 2003 to
$632,000 for 2004 however, as a percent of sales, increased from 6.5% for
2003 to 8.3% for 2004.
- Engineering expense decreased from $660,000 for 2003 to $531,000 for
2004. As a percent of sales, engineering expense increased from 6.7% to
7.0% as a result of lower revenue levels in 2004 to absorb engineering
expense overhead.
- Manufacturing overhead was $1.7 million or 17.5% of sales for 2003
as compared to $1.8 million or 24.1% of sales for 2004. During 2004,
increases in manufacturing overhead were largely due to increases in
supervision and indirect labor expense, medical insurance premiums and
payroll tax expense.
9
SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE - Selling and administrative expense
decreased slightly from $506,000 for the third quarter of 2003 to $480,000 for
2004. As a percent of sales, selling and administrative expense increased from
5.1% for 2003 to 6.3% for 2004. The largest selling and administrative expense
decreases were in director's fees and liability insurance.
INTEREST EXPENSE - Interest expense decreased from $196,000 for 2003 to $149,000
for 2004. This decrease was largely due to the lower levels of debt during the
comparative periods.
COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2004 TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY
31, 2003.
REVENUES - Revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2004 totaled $24.2 million
as compared to $22.6 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2003, an increase
of 7%. This increase is due the Company being in the final phase of completion
on two significant tooling programs.
The Company continues to see a general "softness" in the overall domestic
automotive tooling industry. The Company believes that such conditions should
improve in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004 and the first two quarters of 2005
as a result of recent increased quoting activities. Such tooling programs may
have been delayed for many reasons including continued styling changes,
production related issues as well as the effects of the global automotive supply
chain on the awarding of contracts. The Company continues to be optimistic and
is aggressively pursuing available tooling contracts. For the nine months ended
May 31, 2004, the Company had incurred approximately 247,000 shop floor hours as
compared to 213,000 during the same period of 2003, an increase of 34,000 hours
or 16%.
COST OF SALES - Cost of goods sold increased from $20.3 million for the nine
months ended May 31, 2003 to $21.6 million for the nine months ended May 31,
2004, however as a percent of sales decreased slightly from 90.0% for 2003 to
89.4% for 2004. Direct costs (materials and labor) increased by $890,000
million, from $13.5 million for 2003 to $14.4 million for 2004. Engineering
expense increased by $200,000 from $1.7 million for 2003 to $1.9 million for
2004. Lastly, manufacturing overhead increased by $300,000 from $5.0 million for
2003 to $5.3 million for 2004. Additional details of these changes in cost of
sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2003 and May 31, 2004 are as follows:
- Direct materials expense decreased from $4.1 million to $3.5 million
for the first three quarters of 2003 and 2004, respectively. Outside
services expense increased from $5.3 million for 2003 to $6.0 million for
2004 and as a percent of sales from 23.5% to 24.8%. This increase was
largely due to the Company outsourcing certain manufacturing processes
during the first two quarters of 2004 in an attempt to meet customer
delivery dates while incorporating a high number of customer engineering
changes to the tooling.
- Direct labor expense increased from $4.2 million for 2003 to $4.9
million for 2004 and as a percent of sales increased from 18.4% to 20.4%.
This change was a result of the Company incurring a 16% increase in direct
labor hours, from 213,000 hours in 2003 to 247,000 in 2004. Of the total
direct labor expense, regular or straight time increased by $444,000 and
as a percent of sales from 12.0% for 2003 to 13.0% for 2004. Overtime
expense increased from $1,448,000 for 2003 to $1,785,000 for 2004 and as a
percent of sales, increased from 6.4% for 2003 to 7.4% for 2004 as a
result of the Company attempting to meet customer delivery dates while
incorporating a high number of customer engineering changes to the
tooling.
- Engineering expense increased from $1.7 million, 7.6% of sales, for
2003 to $1.9 million, 7.8% of sales, for 2004. This increase was due to
the Company's level of engineering personnel staffing required to fulfill
the design and project management portions of contracts.
- Manufacturing overhead was $5.0 million or 22.3% of sales for 2003
as compared to $5.3 million or 22.0% of sales for 2004. During 2004,
increases in manufacturing overhead were largely due to increases in
supervision and indirect labor expense, medical insurance premiums and
increases in payroll tax expense.
10
SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE - Selling and administrative expense
increased from $1.2 million for the first three quarters of 2003 to $1.4 million
for 2004. As a percent of sales, selling and administrative expense increased
from 5.5% for 2003 to 5.7% for 2004. The largest selling and administrative
expense increases were in salaries and wages and State of Michigan Single
Business Tax expense.
INTEREST EXPENSE - Interest expense decreased from $577,000 for 2003 to $480,000
for 2004. This decrease was largely due to the lower levels of debt during the
comparative periods.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
For the three and nine months ended May 31, 2004, the Company recorded a
reduction in the valuation allowance of approximately $81,000 and $234,000,
respectively, to offset the income tax expense.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the nine months ended May 31, 2004, the Company's cash used in operating
activities was $1.6 million. This largely resulted from an increase of $5.0
million in receivables and a $3.8 million decrease in contracts in process. From
investing activities, the Company incurred an increase in other assets (cash
surrender value of life insurance policies) of $22,000 and $821,000 in additions
to property, plant and equipment. The Company received net cash from financing
activities of $2.5 million. The cash from financing activities included the
Company receiving $1.3 million through the sale of common stock and borrowed
$1.5 million on it's revolving line of credit while reducing it's long-term debt
by $436,000.
The Company believes that the unused portion of the increased revolving bank
working capital credit line, receipt of progress payments from the Company's
major customer, equity raised during the third quarter and subordinated debt
issued subsequent to the quarter end as well as funds generated from operations
should be sufficient to cover anticipated cash needs through fiscal 2005.
However, depending on the level of future sales, and the terms of such sales, an
expanded credit line or other financial instruments may be necessary to finance
increases in trade accounts receivable and contracts in process. The Company
believes it will be able to obtain such expanded credit line and/or other
financing, if required.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Within the 90-day period prior to the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision, and with the
participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer
(the "CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness and design
of disclosure controls and procedures used to prepare consolidated financial
statements. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded the
disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required
to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed or to be filed with the SEC are
adequate and are operating in an effective manner. While the CEO and CFO believe
that the Company's existing disclosure controls and procedures have been
effective to accomplish its objectives, the CEO and CFO intend to examine,
refine and formalize our disclosure controls and procedures and monitor ongoing
developments.
There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of
the most recent evaluation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover all failures
of persons within the Company to disclose material information otherwise
required to be set forth in the Company's periodic reports.
