INDEX TO ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K

PART I

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions as described from time to time in registration statements, annual reports and other periodic reports and filings of the Company (as defined below) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All statements, other than statements of historical facts, that address the Company’s expectations of sources of capital or that express the Company’s expectations for the future with respect to financial performance or operating strategies, can be identified as forward-looking statements. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Company’s future results will not be materially different from those described herein as “expected,” “anticipated,” “estimated,” “believed,” “predicted,” “intended,” “planned,” “potential,” “may,” “continue” or “should,” which reflect the current views of the Company with respect to future events. We caution readers that these forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof. The Company hereby expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any such statements to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which such statements are based.

Any expectations based on these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. These and many other factors could affect the Company’s future operating results and financial condition and could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations based on forward-looking statements made in this document or elsewhere by the Company or on its behalf.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING SMALLER REPORTING COMPANY STATUS

We are filing this Annual Report on Form 10-K as a “smaller reporting company” (as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) because our public float (the aggregate market value of our common stock equity held by non-affiliates of the Company) was below the required threshold as of the last business day of our second fiscal quarter of 2013. As a result of being a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide certain disclosure in this Form 10-K. Where information is being omitted or reduced in this Form 10-K based on our smaller reporting company status, we have made a special notation herein.

Item 1.   Business.

GENERAL

ALPHA PRO TECH, LTD. (“Alpha Pro Tech” or the “Company” or “we,” “our” or “us”) is the parent company of Alpha Pro Tech, Inc. and Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 1, 1994 as a successor to a business that was organized in 1983. Our executive offices are located at 60 Centurian Drive, Suite 112, Markham, Ontario, Canada L3R 9R2, and our telephone number is (905) 479-0654. Our website is located at www.alphaprotech.com.

The Company continued to qualify as a smaller reporting company at the measurement date for determining such qualification during 2013. According to the disclosure requirements for smaller reporting companies, the Company has included in the consolidated financial statements a consolidated balance sheet as of the end of the two most recent fiscal years and consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two fiscal years preceding the date of the most recent balance sheet.

BUSINESS

Alpha Pro Tech is in the business of protecting people, products and environments. We accomplish this by developing, manufacturing and marketing a line of high-value, disposable protective apparel and infection control products for the cleanroom, industrial, pharmaceutical, medical and dental markets through our wholly owned subsidiary, Alpha Pro Tech, Inc. We also manufacture a line of building supply construction weatherization products through our wholly owned subsidiary, Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. Our products are sold under the "Alpha Pro Tech" brand name, as well as under private label.

Our products are grouped into three business segments: (1) the Building Supply segment, consisting of construction weatherization products, such as housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment as well as other woven material; (2) the Disposable Protective Apparel segment, consisting of disposable protective apparel such as shoecovers, bouffant caps, gowns, coveralls, lab coats, frocks and other miscellaneous products; and (3) the Infection Control segment, consisting of face masks and eye shields. All financial information presented herein reflects the current segmentation.

Our principal strategy focuses on developing, producing and marketing differentiated, innovative high value products that protect people, products and environments. Our key sales growth strategies are based on a strategy of communicating directly with end users and developing innovative products to suit individual end users’ needs.

Our products are used primarily in cleanrooms, industrial safety manufacturing environments and health care facilities, such as hospitals, laboratories and dental offices, as well as building and re-roofing sites. Our products are distributed principally in the United States of America (“United States” or “US”) through a network consisting of purchasing groups, national distributors, local distributors, independent sales representatives and our own sales and marketing force.

PRODUCTS

Our principal products are grouped into three business segments:

Building Supply:

●     Housewrap

●     Synthetic roof underlayment

●     Other woven material

Disposable Protective Apparel:

●     Shoecovers

●     Bouffant caps

●     Gowns

●     Coveralls

●     Lab coats

●     Frocks

Infection Control:

●     Face masks

●     Eye shields

Building Supply

The Building Supply segment consists of a line of construction supply weatherization products, namely housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment as well as other woven material. This line of products is a natural extension of our core capabilities: creating proprietary products designed to protect people and environments.

The usage of these construction supply weatherization products offers great advantages in decreasing the time that it takes to construct a home, as well as reducing costs. The housewrap, under the trademark REX™, offers a weather resistant barrier and, to the homeowner, years of lower energy consumption. REX™ Wrap and REX™ Wrap Plus are woven and coated polypropylene micro perforated weather resistant barriers, and REX™ Wrap Fortis is a highly engineered composite made up of a high-strength woven fabric, a monolithic breather film and a non-woven sheet, offering a high-strength non-perforated membrane.

The proprietary synthetic roof underlayment, REX™ SynFelt, has the ability to resist the environment, as opposed to conventional organic roofing underlayment that is prone to rapid degradation and mold growth. In 2012, we introduced TECHNOply™, an economy version of our synthetic roof underlayment, to capture market share in the lower end of the market.

These products are manufactured in our manufacturing facility in Valdosta, Georgia and through our joint venture in India, as described in more detail below under “Manufacturing.”

Disposable Protective Apparel

The Disposable Protective Apparel segment includes many different styles of disposable products, such as shoecovers, bouffant caps, gowns, coveralls, lab coats, frocks and other miscellaneous products. The vast majority of these products are manufactured by subcontractors in Asia and, to a much lesser extent, a subcontractor in Mexico, as described in more detail below under “Manufacturing.”

Certain proprietary products are made using materials supplied by us.

Infection Control

The Infection Control segment includes face masks and eye shields. Our face masks come in a wide variety of filtration efficiencies and styles. Our patented Positive Facial Lock® feature provides a custom fit to the face to prevent blow-by for better protection. The term "blow-by" is used to describe the potential for infectious material to enter or escape a facemask without going through the filter as a result of gaps or openings in the face mask. Our Magic Arch® feature holds the mask away from the nose and mouth, creating a comfortable breathing chamber. One of our masks that incorporates both the Positive Facial Lock® feature and the Magic Arch® feature is the “N-95 Particulate Respirator face mask,” which was recommended by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) to combat the spread of the H1N1 Influenza A pandemic in 2009.

All eye shields are made from an optical-grade polyester film and have a permanent anti-fog feature. This provides the wearer with extremely lightweight, distortion-free protection that can be worn for hours, and the eye shields will not fog up from humidity and/or perspiration. An important feature of all face masks and eye and face shields is that they are disposable, which eliminates a chance of cross infection between patients and saves users, such as hospitals, the expense of sterilization after every use.

As described in more detail below under “Manufacturing,” the face masks are primarily manufactured in our facility in Salt Lake City, Utah. The shields are produced in our facility in Nogales, Arizona and assembled by a subcontractor in Mexico.

Financial information related to the three segments can be found in Activity of Business Segments (Note 12) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

MARKETS

Our products are sold to the following markets: construction weatherization products (building supply products) are sold to construction supply and roofing distributors, and disposable protective apparel and infection control products (masks and shields) are sold to the industrial, cleanroom, medical and dental markets.

Our target markets are construction building supply and roofing distributors, pharmaceutical manufacturing, bio-pharmaceutical manufacturing, medical device manufacturing, lab animal research, high technology electronics manufacturing (which includes the semi-conductor market), and medical and dental distributors.

DISTRIBUTION

We rely primarily on a network of independent distributors for the sale of our products.

We do not generally have backlog orders, as orders are usually placed for shipment and shipped within 30 days. Appropriate levels of inventories are maintained to supply distributors on a timely basis. From time to time, we will stockpile inventory for periods of unusually high demand. For example, we are currently carrying stockpiled inventory of our N-95 Particulate Respirator face mask that was recommended by the CDC for protection against the H1N1 Influenza A pandemic in 2009.

Payment terms are normally net 30 days from the date of shipment. All pricing and payment for our products are in U.S. dollars. Authorized returns must be unopened, in good condition, in the original carton and may be returned within 90 days of the original date of shipment. All authorized returns are subject to a restocking fee of 20% of the original invoice.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT GEOGRAPHIC AREAS

The following table summarizes the Company’s net sales by geographic region for the Company’s last two years. All amounts have been rounded to the nearest thousand.

The following table summarizes the locations of the Company’s long-lived assets by geographic region for the Company’s last two years.

Net sales by geographic region are based on the countries in which our customers are located. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not generate sales from any single country, other than the United States, that were significant to the Company’s consolidated total net sales.

MANUFACTURING

Our wholly owned subsidiary, Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. (Building Supply segment), which manufactures and distributes a line of construction weatherization products, primarily housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment, is located in a 165,400 square foot facility located at 301 South Blanchard Street, Valdosta, Georgia. The housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment, in a semi-finished state, is manufactured by a company in India in which Alpha Pro Tech has a 41.66% non-controlling ownership interest.

Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. has a 41.66% ownership interest in a joint venture with Maple Industries and Associates, a manufacturer in India, for the production of housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment products in a semi-finished state. The name of the joint venture is Harmony Plastics Private Limited (“Harmony”). Harmony has four facilities in India, three owned and one rented. One facility is a 102,000 square foot building for the manufacturing of housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment. There is a 71,500 square foot building that manufactures coated material and sews proprietary disposable protective apparel. There is also a 16,000 square foot facility that sews proprietary disposable protective apparel. The rented building is a 12,000 square foot facility that coats material. We cut, warehouse and ship disposable protective apparel products in a 60,000 square foot facility located at 1287 West Fairway Drive, Nogales, Arizona. The majority of these products are manufactured by subcontractors in Asia and, to a much lesser extent, a subcontractor in Mexico. These goods are manufactured pursuant to our specifications and quality assurance guidelines. Certain proprietary products are being made in Asia using materials supplied by us.

Our mask production facility is located in a 34,500 square foot building located at 236 North 2200 West, Salt Lake City, Utah.

Certain proprietary products are made using materials supplied by us. We do not anticipate any problems with respect to the sources and availability of these proprietary materials needed to produce our products. Our business is not subject to significant seasonal considerations. It is necessary for us to have adequate raw materials and finished inventory in stock.

COMPETITION

We face substantial competition from numerous companies, including many companies with greater marketing and financial resources. Our major competitor in the medical and dental markets is Kimberly-Clark Corporation of Fort Worth, Texas. Other large competitors include 3M Company, Johnson & Johnson, White Knight Engineered Products (Precept Medical Products, Inc.), Cardinal Health, Inc. and Medline Industries Inc. Our major competitors in the industrial and cleanroom market are our former largest distributor, VWR International, LLC, Kimberly-Clark Corporation, 3M Company, Kappler, Inc., DuPont and Allegiance Healthcare Corporation. Our major competitors in the construction supply weatherization market are DuPont for housewrap and Interwrap Inc. for synthetic roof underlayment.

VWR International, LLC, Cardinal Health, Inc. and Medline Industries Inc. are also distributors of our products.

REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS

We are not required to obtain regulatory approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) with respect to the sale of our products. Our products are, however, subject to prescribed "good manufacturing practices" as defined by the FDA, and our manufacturing facilities are inspected by the FDA every two years to ensure compliance with such "good manufacturing practices." We are marketing a N-95 Particulate Respirator face mask that meets the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) respirator guidelines and has been approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (“NIOSH”). This product is designed to help prevent the inhalation of the tuberculosis bacteria.

PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

Patents

Our policy is to protect our intellectual property rights, products, designs and processes through the filing of patents in the United States and, where appropriate, in Canada and other countries. At present, we have 18 United States patents relating to several of our products. In addition, we have a United States patent on a method to fold and put on sterile garments. We believe that our patents may offer a competitive advantage, but there can be no assurance that any patents, issued or in process, will not be circumvented or invalidated. We also rely on trade secrets and proprietary know-how to maintain and develop our commercial position.

The various United States patents issued have remaining durations of approximately 1 to 12 years before expiration.

Trademarks

Many of our products are sold under various trademarks and trade names, including Alpha Pro Tech. We believe that many of our trademarks and trade names have significant recognition in our principal markets, and we take customary steps to register or otherwise protect our rights in our trademarks and trade names.

EMPLOYEES

As of February 28, 2014, we had 121 employees, including 17 employees at our principal executive office in Markham, Ontario, Canada; 13 employees at our face mask production facility in Salt Lake City, Utah; 29 employees at our Disposable Apparel cutting, warehouse and shipping facility in Nogales, Arizona; 39 employees at our Building Supply segment facility in Valdosta, Georgia; 16 employees on our sales and marketing team, located in various areas throughout the United States; and 7 employees in China.

None of our employees are subject to collective bargaining agreements.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.

Making or continuing an investment in common stock issued by the Company involves certain risks that you should carefully consider. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only risks that may have a material adverse effect on the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties also could adversely affect our business and our results. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be negatively affected, the market price of your common stock could decline and you could lose all or a part of your investment. Further, to the extent that any of the information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K constitutes forward-looking statements, the risk factors set forth below also are cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company.

Global economic conditions could adversely affect the Company’s business and financial results.

Unfavorable economic conditions, including the impact of recessions and general economic downturns in the United States and throughout the world, may negatively affect the Company’s business and financial results.  These economic conditions could negatively impact (i) demand for our products, (ii) the mix of our products’ sales, (iii) our ability to collect accounts receivable on a timely basis from certain customers and (iv) the ability of certain suppliers to fill our orders for raw materials or other goods and services. A prolonged recession could result in decreased revenue, margins and earnings.

The loss of any large customer or a reduction in orders from any large customer could reduce our net sales and harm our operating results.

Our operating results could be negatively affected by the loss of revenue from a few large customers. Our customers are not contractually obligated to purchase any fixed quantities of products, and they may stop placing orders with us at any time. We are subject to the risk of losing large customers or incurring significant reductions in sales to these customers.

We rely on suppliers and contractors, and our business could be seriously harmed if these suppliers and contractors are not able to meet our requirements.

We rely on a limited number of suppliers and contractors for our Disposable Protective Apparel and Building Supply segments. If we lose the services of these key suppliers and contractors, or if they are not willing or able to satisfy our requirements, finding substitute suppliers or contractors may be time-consuming and would affect our results of operations in the near term.

There are risks associated with international manufacturing that could have a significant effect on our business.

We subcontract the manufacturing of some of our goods to Asia. These goods are manufactured pursuant to our specifications and quality assurance guidelines. Certain proprietary products are being made in Asia using materials supplied by us.

We expect that a significant portion of our product sales will be derived from the sale of products for which we subcontract the manufacture to Asia, but we cannot be certain that we will be able to maintain such subcontracting at current levels. If our ability to subcontract some of our manufacturing to Asia were to decline significantly, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. International manufacturing is subject to a number of risks, including the following:

Our success depends in part on protection of our intellectual property, and our failure to do so could adversely affect our competitive advantage, our brand recognition and our business.

The success and competitiveness of our products depend in part upon our ability to protect our current and future technology, manufacturing processes and brand names, including Alpha Pro Tech, through a combination of patent, trademark, trade secret and unfair competition laws.

We enter into confidentiality and non-disclosure of intellectual property agreements with our employees, consultants and certain vendors and generally control access to and distribution of our proprietary information. Despite these precautions, it may be possible for a third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use our proprietary information without authorization or to develop similar information independently.

Policing unauthorized use of intellectual property is difficult. The laws of other countries may afford little or no effective protection of our technology. We cannot assure you that the steps taken by us will prevent misappropriation of our technology or that agreements entered into for that purpose will be enforceable. In addition, litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets and to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Litigation may result in substantial costs and diversion of resources, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our industry is highly competitive which may affect our ability to grow our customer base and generate sales.

The markets for our products are intensely competitive. We currently experience competition from numerous companies in each of the markets in which we participate.

Many of our competitors are more established, benefit from greater market recognition and have substantially greater financial, development, manufacturing and marketing resources than we have.

If we do not compete successfully with respect to these or other companies, it could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Company’s results are affected by competitive conditions and customer preferences.

Demand for the Company’s products, which impacts revenue and profit margins, is affected by (i) the development and timing of the introduction of competitive products; (ii) the Company’s response to downward pricing to stay competitive; (iii) changes in customer order patterns, such as changes in the levels of inventory maintained by customers and the timing of customer purchases; and (iv) changes in customers’ preferences for our products, including the success of products offered by our competitors and changes in customer designs for our competitors’ products that can affect the demand for the Company’s products.

The Company’s growth objectives are largely dependent on the timing and market acceptance of its new product offerings, including its ability to continually renew its pipeline of new products and to bring those products to market.

This ability may be adversely affected by difficulties or delays in product development, such as the inability to identify viable new products, obtain adequate intellectual property protection or gain market acceptance of new products. There are no guarantees that new products will prove to be commercially successful.

Security breaches and other disruptions to the Company’s information technology infrastructure could interfere with the Company’s operations, compromise information belonging to the Company and its customers and suppliers and expose the Company to liability, which could adversely impact the Company’s business and reputation.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company relies on information technology networks and systems, some of which are managed by third parties, to process, transmit and store electronic information, and to manage or support a variety of business processes and activities. Additionally, the Company collects and stores sensitive data, including proprietary business information. Despite security measures and business continuity plans, the Company’s information technology networks and infrastructure may be vulnerable to damage, disruptions or shutdowns due to attack by hackers or breaches, employee error or malfeasance, power outages, computer viruses, telecommunication or utility failures, systems failures, natural disasters or other catastrophic events. Any such event could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability or penalties under privacy laws, disruption in operations and damage to the Company’s reputation, which could adversely affect the Company’s business.

The Company’s future results may be affected by various legal and regulatory proceedings and legal compliance risks.

From time to time, the Company is subject to certain legal and regulatory proceedings in the ordinary course of business. The outcome of these legal proceedings may differ from the Company’s expectations because the outcomes of litigation, including regulatory matters, are often difficult to reliably predict. Various factors or developments can lead the Company to change current estimates of liabilities and related insurance receivables where applicable, or make such estimates for matters previously not susceptible to reasonable estimates, such as a significant judicial ruling or judgment, a significant settlement, significant regulatory developments or changes in applicable law. A future adverse ruling, settlement or unfavorable development could result in future charges that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows in any particular period.

Our common stock price is volatile, which could result in substantial losses for individual shareholders.

The market price of our common stock has been volatile, and we expect that it will continue to be volatile. In particular, our common stock may be subject to significant fluctuations in response to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to:

Due to these factors, you may not be able to sell your stock at or above the price you paid for it, which could result in substantial losses.

Our investment in a publicly traded entity with a common stock price is volatile, which could result in substantial losses for the Company.

The market price of the entities common stock has been volatile, and we expect that it will continue to be volatile as it is a publicly traded stock. In particular, the entity’s common stock may be subject to significant fluctuations in response to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to:

Due to these factors, we may not be able to sell the investment in the publicly traded entity at or above the price we paid for it, which could result in substantial losses.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

You should read the following discussion and analysis together with our consolidated financial statements and the notes to our consolidated financial statements, which appear elsewhere in this report.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain information set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future revenues or performance, capital expenditures, financing needs, plans or intentions relating to potential acquisitions and other information that is not historical information. When used in this report, the words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes” and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We may make additional forward-looking statements from time to time. All forward-looking statements, whether written or oral and whether made by us or on our behalf, also are expressly qualified by this special note.

Any expectations based on these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. These and many other factors could affect the Company’s future operating results and financial condition and could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations based on forward-looking statements made in this document or elsewhere by the Company or on its behalf.

Special Note Regarding Smaller Reporting Company Status

We are filing this Annual Report on Form 10-K as a “smaller reporting company” (as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) because our public float (the aggregate market value of our common equity held by non-affiliates of the Company) was below the required threshold as of the last business day of our second fiscal quarter of 2013. As a result of being a smaller reporting company, we are allowed and have elected to omit certain information from this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; however, we have provided all information for the periods presented that we believe to be appropriate.

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reported periods. We base estimates on past experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The application of these accounting policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide timely and reliable financial information. Our critical accounting polices include the following:

Inventories: Inventories include freight-in, materials, labor and overhead costs and are stated at the lower of cost (computed on a standard cost basis, which approximates average cost) or market. Allowances are recorded for slow-moving, obsolete or unusable inventory. We assess our inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory and write down the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future sales and supply on-hand, if necessary. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.

Accounts Receivable: Accounts receivable is recorded at the invoice amount and do not bear interest.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable; however, changes in circumstances relating to accounts receivable may result in a requirement for additional allowances in the future.  The Company determines the allowance based upon historical write-off experience and known conditions about customers’ current ability to pay.  Account balances are charged against the allowance when the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Revenue Recognition: For sales transactions, we comply with the provisions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition, which states that revenue should be recognized when all of the following revenue recognition criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) title transfers and the customer assumes the risk of loss; (3) the selling price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. These criteria are satisfied upon shipment of product, and sales are recognized accordingly.

Sales Returns, Rebates and Allowances: Sales are reduced for any anticipated sales returns, rebates and allowances based on historical experience. Since our return policy is only 90 days and our products are not generally susceptible to external factors such as technological obsolescence or significant changes in demand, we are able to make a reasonable estimate for returns. We offer end-user product specific and sales volume rebates to select distributors. Our rebates are based on actual sales and are accrued monthly.

Stock-Based Compensation: Alpha Pro Tech accounts for stock-based awards using Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 requires companies to record compensation expense for the value of all outstanding and unvested share-based payments, including employee stock options and similar awards.

The fair values of stock option grants are determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and are based on the following assumptions: expected stock price volatility based on historical data and management’s expectations of future volatility, risk-free interest rates from published sources, years to maturity based on historical data and no dividend yield, as the Board of Directors currently has no plans to pay dividends in the near future. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and that are fully transferable. In addition, the option-pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected stock price volatility. Our stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value of such options.

OVERVIEW

Alpha Pro Tech is in the business of protecting people, products and environments. We accomplish this by developing, manufacturing and marketing a line of high-value, disposable protective apparel and infection control products for the cleanroom, industrial, pharmaceutical, medical and dental markets. We also manufacture a line of building supply construction weatherization products. Our products are sold under the "Alpha Pro Tech" brand name, as well as under private label.

Our products are grouped into three business segments: the Building Supply segment, consisting of construction weatherization products, such as housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment as well as other woven material; the Disposable Protective Apparel segment, consisting of disposable protective apparel such as shoecovers, bouffant caps, gowns, coveralls, lab coats, frocks and other miscellaneous products; and the Infection Control segment, consisting of face masks and eye shields. All financial information presented herein reflects the current segmentation.

Our target markets include pharmaceutical manufacturing, bio-pharmaceutical manufacturing and medical device manufacturing, lab animal research, high technology electronics manufacturing (which includes the semi-conductor market), medical and dental distributors, and construction, building supply and roofing distributors.

Our products are used primarily in cleanrooms, industrial safety manufacturing environments, health care facilities, such as hospitals, laboratories and dental offices, and building and re-roofing sites. Our products are distributed principally in the United States through a network consisting of purchasing groups, national distributors, local distributors, independent sales representatives and our own sales and marketing force.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table sets forth certain operational data as a percentage of sales for the years indicated:

Fiscal 2013 Compared to Fiscal 2012

Sales. Consolidated net sales for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased to $43,806,000, from $41,058,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, representing an increase of $2,748,000, or 6.7%. This increase consisted of increased sales in the Building Supply segment of $2,624,000, increased sales in the Disposable Protective Apparel segment of $3,000 and increased sales in the Infection Control segment of $121,000.

Building Supply segment sales for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased by $2,624,000, or 11.0%, to $26,373,000, as compared to $23,749,000 for 2012. The increase was primarily due to a 20.4% increase in sales of REX™ Wrap housewrap and a 1.3% increase in sales of REX™ SynFelt synthetic roof underlayment. The sales mix of the Building Supply segment for the year ended December 31, 2013 was 61% for synthetic roof underlayment, 35% for housewrap and 4% for other woven material. This compared to 67% for synthetic roof underlayment and 33% for housewrap for the year ended December 31, 2012.

In 2012, we introduced TECHNOply™, an economy version of our synthetic roof underlayment, to capture market share in the lower end of the market. In 2013, sales of TECHNOply™ almost doubled compared to 2012 and contributed 11% of total synthetic roof underlayment sales, as compared to 6% for 2012. TECHNOply™ is expected to be a growth product for the Company. Sales of our newest housewrap, REX™ Wrap Fortis non-perforated breathable housewrap, are starting to gain traction. For 2013, REX™ Wrap Fortis sales increased three-fold over 2012 and comprised 7% of total housewrap sales as compared to 3% for 2012. Sales of REX™ Wrap Fortis are expected to increase significantly in 2014. We will continue to introduce new products in our Building Supply segment as we see opportunities arise.

We believe that the outlook for the Building Supply segment is promising and that we are in a good position to take advantage of significant growth prospects as the housing market continues to recover.

Sales for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased by $3,000, to $13,191,000, compared to $13,188,000 for 2012. The slight increase was primarily due to an increase in sales of disposable protective apparel to regional and national distributors, partially offset by a decrease to our major international supply chain partner. Although sales to our major international partner were down, sales to its end users were not and our sales to this distributor are expected to increase next year. Management is emphasizing a more diversified and broader distribution strategy for our Critical Cover® protective apparel product line and we believe that we will continue to grow our market share.

Infection Control segment sales for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased by $121,000, or 2.9%, to $4,242,000, compared to $4,121,000 for 2012. Mask sales were up by 8.5%, or $234,000, to $2,986,000 and shield sales were down by 8.3%, or $113,000, to $1,256,000, all compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The overall mask sales increase for 2013 was primarily due to an increase in medical, dental and industrial mask sales.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by $1,772,000, or 12.3%, to $16,232,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $14,460,000 for 2012. The gross profit margin was 37.1% for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to 35.2% for 2012. The gross profit margin for the year ended December 31, 2013 was positively impacted by an increase in the Building Supply segment margin.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $236,000, or 1.8%, to $13,115,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $12,879,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 29.9% for the year ended December 31, 2013 from 31.4% for 2012.

The change in expense by segment was as follows: Building Supply was up $99,000, or 2.3%, Disposable Protective Apparel was up $17,000, or 0.5%, and corporate unallocated expenses were up $302,000 or 6.8%, partially offset by Infection Control which was down $182,000, or 24.9%. The increase in corporate unallocated expenses was primarily due to a severance accrual for manufacturing personnel that will not be replaced, as we have restructured some job functions, and executive and management bonuses. The decrease in Infection Control was primarily due to job restructuring.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President are each entitled to a bonus equal to 5% of the pre-tax profits of the Company, excluding bonus expense. Executive bonuses of $329,000 were accrued during the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to $145,000 for 2012.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $42,000, or 5.5%, to $722,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $764,000 for 2012. The decrease for the year was primarily attributable to decreased depreciation for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment.

Income from Operations. Income from operations increased by $1,578,000, or 193.1%, to $2,395,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to income from operations of $817,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase was due to an increase in gross profit of $1,772,000 and a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $42,000, partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expense of $236,000.

Other Income. Other income increased to $569,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $490,000 for 2012. Other income consists of equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate, gains on investment in common stock warrants and interest income. Other income consisted of equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $210,000, a gain on investment in common stock warrants of $350,000 and interest income of $9,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013. Other income consisted of equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $480,000 and interest income of $10,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012.   

Income before Provision for Income Taxes. Income before provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $2,964,000, compared to income before provision for income taxes of $1,307,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, representing an increase of $1,657,000, or 126.8%. The increase in income before provision for income taxes was due primarily to an increase in income from operations of $1,578,000 and gain on investment in common stock warrants of $350,000, partially offset by a decrease in equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $270,000 and a decrease in net interest income of $1,000.

Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $885,000, compared to the provision for income taxes of $330,000 for 2012. The estimated effective tax rate was 29.9% for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to 25.2% for 2012. The lower than historical effective tax rates for 2013 and 2012 are primarily due to changes in the treatment of the Company’s joint venture in India for U.S. income tax reporting purposes. Management expects the effective tax rate to be in the mid-30% range going forward.

Net Income. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $2,079,000, compared to net income of $977,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $1,102,000, or 112.8%. The net income increase was primarily due to an increase in income before provision for income taxes of $1,657,000 partially offset by an increase in income taxes of $555,000. Net income as a percentage of sales for the year ended December 31, 2013 was 4.7%, and net income as a percentage of sales for 2012 was 2.4%. Basic and diluted earnings per common share for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $0.11, and basic and diluted earnings per common share for 2012 were $0.05.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of December 31, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $8,215,000 and working capital of $30,915,000, representing an increase in working capital of 4.6%, or $1,354,000, from December 31, 2012. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, our current ratio was 19:1. Cash and cash equivalents increased by 80.4%, or $3,661,000, to $8,215,000 as of December 31, 2013, compared to $4,554,000 as of December 31, 2012. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was due to cash provided by operating activities of $6,093,000, partially offset by cash used in financing activities of $2,082,000 and cash used in investing activities of $350,000.

We have a $3,500,000 credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, consisting of a line of credit with interest at prime plus 0.5%. As of December 31, 2013, the prime interest rate was 3.25%. This credit line was renewed in May 2012 and expires in May 2014. Our borrowing capacity on the line of credit was $3,500,000 as of December 31, 2013. The available line of credit is based on a formula of eligible accounts receivable and inventories. As of December 31, 2013, we did not have any borrowings under this credit facility.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $6,093,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $1,014,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 was due to net income of $2,079,000, adjusted by the following: amortization of share-based compensation expense of $150,000, depreciation and amortization of $722,000, equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $210,000, a gain on investment in common stock warrants of $350,000, a decrease in deferred income taxes of $3,000, a decrease in accounts receivable of $1,279,000, a decrease in inventories of $3,024,000, an increase in prepaid expenses of $669,000 and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $71,000.

The net cash used in operating activities of $1,014,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012 was due to net income of $977,000, adjusted by the following: amortization of share-based compensation expense of $228,000, depreciation and amortization of $764,000, equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $480,000, a decrease in deferred income taxes of $6,000, an increase in accounts receivable of $1,625,000, an increase in inventories of $1,598,000, an increase in prepaid expenses of $56,000 and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $782,000.

Accounts receivable decreased by $1,279,000, or 20.1%, to $5,071,000 as of December 31, 2013 from $6,350,000 as of December 31, 2012. The decrease in accounts receivable was primarily related to the commencement of extended Building Supply segment payment terms in the fourth quarter to remain competitive, as our competition offers these extended payment terms as well. We started this extended payment terms program a little later in 2013 as compared to 2012 which caused the 2013 accounts receivable balance to be lower. The number of days sales outstanding as of December 31, 2013, calculated by using an average of accounts receivable outstanding for the year end dates, was 47 days, compared to 49 days as of December 31, 2012.   

Inventories decreased by $3,024,000, or 17.6%, to $14,140,000 as of December 31, 2013 from $17,164,000 as of December 31, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in inventories for the Building Supply segment of $2,195,000, or 27.5%, to $5,786,000, a decrease in inventories for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment of $444,000, or 8.0%, to $5,106,000 and a decrease in inventories for the Infection Control segment of $385,000, or 10.6%, to $3,248,000.

Prepaid expenses increased by $669,000, or 29.1%, to $2,968,000 as of December 31, 2013 from $2,299,000 as of December 31, 2012. The increase was primarily due an increase in prepayments to Asia for the purchase of inventories, the prepayment on machinery and equipment for the Building Supply segment, partially offset by a decrease in prepaid tax.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2013 increased by $72,000, or 4.4%, to $1,725,000 from $1,653,000 as of December 31, 2012. The change was primarily due to an increase in accrued liabilities of $243,000 and a decrease in accounts payable of $171,000. The increase in accrued liabilities was primarily due to an increase in sales commissions, accrued bonuses and accrued payroll, partially offset by a decrease in accrued tax.

Net cash used in investing activities was $350,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $363,000 for 2012. Our investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 consisted primarily of the purchase of property and equipment of $349,000 and the purchase of intangible assets of $1,000. Our investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 consisted primarily of the purchase of property and equipment of $519,000, the purchase of marketable securities of $255,000 and the purchase of intangible assets of $6,000, partially offset by repayment of advances from our unconsolidated affiliate (Harmony) of $417,000.

Net cash used in financing activities was $2,082,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $1,572,000 for 2012. Our net cash used in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 was due to the payment of $3,134,000 for the repurchase of common stock, partially offset by the proceeds of $1,052,000 from the exercise of stock options. Our net cash used in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 was due to the payment of $1,581,000 for the repurchase of common stock, partially offset by the proceeds of $9,000 from the exercise of stock options.

As of December 31, 2013, we had $1,595,000 available for additional stock purchases under our stock repurchase program. For the year ended December 31, 2013, we repurchased 1,931,350 shares of common stock at a cost of $3,134,000. As of December 31, 2013, we had repurchased a total of 10,524,978 shares of common stock at a cost of $13,926,000 through our repurchase program. We retire all stock upon its repurchase. Future repurchases are expected to be funded from cash on hand and cash flows from operating activities.

We believe that our current cash balance and the funds available under our credit facility will be sufficient to satisfy our projected working capital and planned capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.

New Accounting Standards

Management reviews new accounting standards as they are issued. Although some of these accounting standards may be applicable to the Company, management has not identified any new standards that it believes merit further discussion, and the Company expects that none would have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We subcontract the manufacture of products in China and, to a lesser extent in Mexico, and have a joint venture in India. In addition, our principal executive office, with 17 employees, is located in Canada. We do not believe that we have a material foreign currency exposure due to the fact that our purchase agreements with companies in China, India and Mexico are settled in U.S dollars. In addition, all sales transactions are in U.S. dollars. In Canada, our foreign currency exposure is not material due to the fact that we do not conduct manufacturing operations in Canada. Our exposure is limited to payroll expenses in the Canadian branch office.

We do not expect any significant effect on our consolidated results of operations from inflation, interest or currency rate fluctuations. We do not hedge our interest rate or foreign exchange risks.

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

• pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

• provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and

• provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

During the process of preparing the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, it was determined that the Company had not marked to market a non trading unexercised common stock warrant (derivative) related to a publicly traded entity. This oversight did not impact income from operations but had a material impact on the third quarter condensed consolidated financial statements by understating other income and current assets by $201,000 and understating net income and shareholders’ equity by $133,000. This amount has been corrected in the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013.

In light of this error, management has concluded that, as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2013, a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting existed related to accounting for this unexercised warrant. The system in place to review the financial instrument (derivative) was insufficient to detect the error.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, we assessed, as of December 31, 2013, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. This assessment was based on criteria established in accordance with the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our assessment, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2013. Management has subsequently rectified this weakness, and appropriate systems are in place.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended.    These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

2.     Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Alpha Pro Tech, Inc. and Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Events that occurred after December 31, 2013 through the date that these financial statements were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) were considered in the preparation of these financial statements.

Periods Presented

All amounts have been rounded to the nearest thousand with the exception of the share data. The Company qualified as a smaller reporting company at the measurement date for determining such qualification during 2013. According to the disclosure requirements for smaller reporting companies, the Company has included balance sheets as of the end of the two most recent years and statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two most recent years.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity date of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Investments

The Company periodically invests a portion of its cash in excess of short-term operating needs in marketable debt and equity securities. These investments are classified as available-for-sale in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”). The Company does not have any investments in securities that are classified as held-to-maturity or trading. Available-for-sale investments are carried at their fair values using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities, with unrealized gains and losses, net of deferred income taxes, reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses, and declines in value deemed to be other-than-temporary on available-for-sale investments, are recognized in net income. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Investments that the Company intends to hold for more than one year are classified as long-term investments in the accompanying balance sheets.    

The Company has an investment in non-trading warrants to purchase common stock in a publicly traded entity. These warrants are derivatives that are carried at fair value in the accompanying balance sheets.

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoice amount and do not bear interest.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable; however, changes in circumstances relating to accounts receivable may result in a requirement for additional allowances in the future.  The Company determines the allowance based upon historical write-off experience and known conditions about its customers’ current ability to pay.  Account balances are charged against the allowance when management determines that the probability for collection is remote.

Inventories

Inventories include freight-in, materials, labor and overhead costs and are stated at the lower of cost (computed on a standard cost basis, which approximates average cost) or market. Allowances are recorded for slow-moving, obsolete or unusable inventories. The Company assesses inventories for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable products and writes down the difference between the cost of the inventories and the estimated market values based upon assumptions about future sales and supplies on-hand.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Property and equipment are depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the respective useful lives of the assets or the related lease terms as follows:

Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized, whereas costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to operations in the period incurred.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company accounts for goodwill and definite-lived intangible assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC” or “Codification”) 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”). Goodwill is not amortized, but rather is tested annually for impairment. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their useful lives (see Note 6). The Company’s patents and trademarks are recorded at cost and are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 5-17 years.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair values of financial instruments are determined based on relevant market information and cannot be determined with precision. The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and non- trading common stock warrants.

The Company’s marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair market value based on quoted market prices.

The Company holds non trading warrants to purchase common stock in a publicly traded entity to purchase 167,500 shares of the entity. The warrants expire in September 2014. The common stock warrants are derivatives and are carried at fair value in the accompanying balance sheets. The fair value of these warrants is determined using a Black-Scholes pricing model.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in its business circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If it is determined that the undiscounted future net cash flows are not sufficient to recover the carrying values of the assets, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying values over the fair values of the assets. The Company believes that the future undiscounted net cash flows to be received from its long-lived assets exceed the assets’ carrying values and, accordingly, the Company has not recognized any impairment losses for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Revenue Recognition

Sales are recognized when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) title transfers and the customer assumes the risk of loss; (3) the selling price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. These criteria are satisfied upon shipment of product.

Sales are reduced for any anticipated sales returns, rebates and allowances based on historical data.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The costs of shipping products to distributors are classified in cost of goods sold.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company maintains a stock option plan under which the Company may grant incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to employees and non-employee directors. Stock options have been granted with exercise prices at or above the fair market value of the underlying shares of common stock on the date of grant. Options vest and expire according to terms established at the grant date.

The Company accounts for stock-based awards in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation. ASC 718 requires companies to record compensation expense for the value of all outstanding and unvested share-based awards, including employee stock options.

For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were 120,000 and zero stock options granted, respectively, under the Company’s option plan. The Company recognized $150,000 and $228,000 in share-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to issued options.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred income tax assets unless it is more likely than not that such assets will be realized. The Company’s policy is to classify any interest and penalties assessed by the Internal Revenue Service as a component of the provision for income taxes. The Company presents taxes assessed by governmental authorities on revenue-producing activities (i.e., sales tax) on a net basis in the accompanying statements of income. The Company provides allowances for uncertain income tax positions when it is more likely than not that the position will not be sustained upon examination by the tax authority.

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the US federal jurisdiction, and in various states and foreign jurisdictions.  The Company is no longer subject to US federal, state and local, income tax examination by tax authorities for years before 2010.  The Company is not currently under examination in any of the jurisdictions in which it operates.

Earnings Per Common Share

The following table provides a reconciliation of both net income and the number of shares used in the computations of “basic” earnings per common share (“EPS”), which utilizes the weighted average number of common shares outstanding without regard to common stock equivalents, and “diluted” EPS, which includes all common stock equivalents which are dilutive for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Translation of Foreign Currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into US dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies at each period end are translated at the exchange rate in effect at that date. Transaction gains or losses on foreign currencies are reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses and were not material for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The Company does not have a material foreign currency exposure due to the fact that all purchase agreements with companies in Asia and Mexico are in US dollars. In addition, all sales transactions are in US dollars. The Company’s only foreign currency exposure is with its Canadian branch office. The foreign currency exposure is not material due to the fact that the Company does not manufacture in Canada. The exposure primarily relates to payroll expenses in the Company’s administrative branch office in Canada.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Such costs were not material for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. These costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses and were $49,000 and $64,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with US GAAP, clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. On a quarterly basis, the Company measures at fair value certain financial assets using a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company's own assumptions. The following fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels:

Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

This hierarchy requires the Company to minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to use observable market data, if available, when determining fair value. The fair values of the Company's financial assets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 were determined using the following levels of inputs:

• Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

• Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

• Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

The fair values for the marketable securities, classified as Level 1, were obtained from quoted market prices. The fair value of the instrument in non trading common stock warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The significant assumptions as of December 31, 2013 were as follows: risk-free rate of 0.13%, term 0.75 years, volatility of 48% and dividend yield of 0.0%.

New Accounting Standards

Management reviews new accounting standards as they are issued. Although some of these accounting standards may be applicable to the Company, management has not identified any new standards that it believes merit further discussion, and the Company expects that none would have a significant impact on its financial statements.

3.      Investments

As of December 31, 2013, investments totaled $1,606,000 which consisted of marketable securities of $1,256,000 and common stock warrants of $350,000. As of December 31, 2012, marketable securities totaled $293,000 which consisted of only available-for-sale marketable securities.

7.     Equity Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Affiliate

In 2005, Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. (a subsidiary of Alpha Pro Tech, Ltd.) entered into a joint venture with a manufacturer in India for the production of building products. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, a private company, Harmony Plastics Private Limited (“Harmony”), was created with ownership interests of 41.66% by Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. and 58.34% by Maple Industries and Associates. Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. contributed $508,000 for its equity position, and Maple Industries and Associates contributed $708,000 for its equity position.

This joint venture positions Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. to respond to current and expected increased product demand for housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment and provides future capacity for sales of specialty roofing component products and custom products for industrial applications requiring high quality extrusion coated fabrics. In addition, the joint venture now supplies products for the Disposable Protective Apparel segment.

The capital from the initial funding and a bank loan, which loan is guaranteed exclusively by the individual shareholders of Maple Industries and Associates and collateralized by the assets of Harmony, were utilized to purchase the original manufacturing facility in India. Harmony currently has four facilities in India (three owned and one rented), consisting of: (1) a 102,000 square foot building for manufacturing housewrap and synthetic roof underlayment; (2) a 71,500 square foot building for manufacturing coated material and sewing proprietary disposable protective apparel; and (3) a 16,000 square foot facility for sewing proprietary disposable protective apparel; and (4) a 12,000 square foot rented facility that coats material. All additions have been financed by Harmony with no guarantees from the Company.

In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation, the Company assesses whether or not related entities are variable interest entities (“VIEs”). For those related entities that qualify as VIEs, ASC 810 requires the Company to determine whether or not the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE, and, if so, to consolidate the VIE. The Company has determined that Harmony is not a VIE and is, therefore, considered to be an unconsolidated affiliate.

The Company records its investment in Harmony as “equity investments in and advances to unconsolidated affiliate” in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company records its equity interest in Harmony’s results of operations as “equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate” in the accompanying statements of income. The Company reviews annually its investment in Harmony for impairment. Management has determined that no impairment was required as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Alpha ProTech Engineered Products, Inc. initially invested $1,450,000 in the joint venture: $508,000 as equity and $942,000 as a long-term advance for materials. Fifty percent of the $942,000 long-term advance for materials was to be repaid over a six-year term that commenced in July 2006, and any remaining balance was to be paid in the seventh year. Harmony has repaid the advance in full, with the final $417,000 payments made in the third quarter of 2012.

For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, Alpha Pro Tech purchased $12,772,000 and $17,011,000 of inventories, respectively, from Harmony. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $210,000 and $480,000, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, the Company’s investment in Harmony is $2,708,000, which consists of its original $1,450,000 investment and cumulative equity in income of unconsolidated affiliate of $2,277,000, less $942,000 in repayments of the advance and payment of $77,000 in dividends.

Option Activity

The 2004 Stock Option Plan (the “2004 Plan”) is an equity compensation plan that provides for grants of both incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to eligible individuals.  The 2004 Plan is intended to recognize the contributions made to the Company by key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, provide key employees with additional incentive to devote themselves to the future success of the Company and improve the ability of the Company to attract, retain and motivate individuals.  The 2004 Plan also is intended as an incentive to certain members of the Board of Directors of the Company to continue to serve on the Board of Directors and to devote themselves to the future success of the Company.

The 2004 Plan provides for a total of 5,000,000 common shares eligible for issuance.

Under the 2004 Plan, approximately 3,230,000 options have been granted as of December 31, 2013. Under the 2004 Plan, option grants have a three-year vesting period and, since 2005, expire no later than the fifth anniversary from the date of grant. In 2004 and 2005, options granted had an expiration date of 10 years after the date of grant. The exercise price of the options is determined based on the fair value of the stock on the date of grant.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The following table summarizes option activity for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012:

Stock options to purchase 1,070,000 and 1,790,002 shares of common stock were outstanding as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  All except 30,000 of the stock options were included in the computation of the weighted-average number of dilutive common shares outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2013. All of the stock options were excluded from the computation of the weighted-average number of dilutive common shares for the year ended December 31, 2012, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

The fair values of the share-based compensation awards granted were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions and weighted average fair values:

The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the options. The Company uses historical data to estimate the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the award is based on the US Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the expected life in years. The Company uses an estimated dividend payout ratio of zero, as the Company has not paid dividends in the past and, at this time, does not expect to do so in the future
