Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and the related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events, our actual amounts and results could differ from those estimates. The estimates made are based on historical factors, current circumstances, and the experience and judgment of our management, who continually evaluate the judgments, estimates and assumptions and may employ outside experts to assist in the evaluations.

Certain of our accounting policies are deemed “critical”, as they are both most important to the financial statement presentation and require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2014. 

Results of Operations - For the three months ending June 30, 2015 and 2014 

Total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $14,665,748 and $13,453,734, respectively, an increase of $1,212,014, or 9%. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $942,505 and $716,100, respectively, an increase of $226,405, or 32%. Net income in the third quarter increased, as compared to net income in the same period last year, due to higher sales in the Environmental products and systems group.

Revenues

Environmental products and systems revenues for three months ended June 30, 2015 increased by $3,827,962 or 69%, to $9,341,099 from $5,513,137 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase was primarily due to an increased demand for environmental products and services in foreign Asian markets.

Electronics manufacturing services revenues for three months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by 2,615,948 or 33% to $5,324,649 from $7,940,597 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The primary reason for decreased sales was due to the decline in exchange rate of the Euro vs US Dollar. Additionally, the sales were lower due to the timing of shipments of in-house orders during this quarter as compared to the same quarter a year ago.

Gross Profit 

Gross Profit for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $4,252,202 or 29% of revenues as compared to gross profit of $4,199,962 or 31% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in gross profit percentage in the three months ended June 30, 2015 was a direct result of lower profit margin jobs shipped during this period as compared to the same quarter in the prior year.

Operating Expenses

 Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased $206,358 or 6% to $3,571,136 from $3,364,778 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 24% for the three month periods ended June 30, 2015 compared to 25% for the three month period ended June 30, 2014. The increases in operating expenses were primarily due to increases in salaries and fringe benefits, depreciation expense related to the ROB building and additional legal and accounting expenses.

Other Income/(Expense)

Interest and other income/(expense) for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 was $246,539 as compared to $(102,660) for the third quarter of fiscal 2014. The income was due primarily to forgiveness of some debt in the Electronics manufacturing group.

Provision for Income Taxes

During the third quarter of fiscal 2015 we recorded an income tax benefit of $14,900 compared to an income tax provision accrual of $16,424 for the third quarter of fiscal 2014. The provision for income tax is based upon the projected income tax from the Company’s various U.S. and international subsidiaries that are subject to income taxes.

Net Income/Loss

The Company had net income of $898,827 or 6% of revenues, for the three month period ended June 30, 2015 as compared to a net income of $716,100 or 5% of revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Net income in the third quarter increased, as compared to net income in the same period last year, due largely to higher sales in the Environmental products and systems group and the forgiveness of debt in the Electronic manufacturing group.

Results of Operations - For the nine months ending June 30, 2015 and 2014 

Total revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $42,839,477 and $33,966,686, respectively, an increase of $8,872,791, or 26%. Net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $2,420,950 and $1,902,267, respectively, an increase of $518,683, or 27%. Net income in the first nine months of fiscal 2015 increased, as compared to net income in the same period last year, due to higher sales in the Environmental products and systems group.

Revenues

Environmental products and systems revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 increased by $11,792,853 or 98%, to $23,825,982 from $12,033,129 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. The increase was primarily due to an increased demand for environmental products and services in foreign Asian markets.

Electronics manufacturing services revenues for nine months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by $2,920,062 or 13% to $19,013,495 from $21,933,557 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. The primary reason for decreased sales was due to the decline in exchange rate of the Euro vs US Dollar. Additionally, the sales were lower due to the timing of shipments of in-house orders during this quarter as compared to the similar quarter a year ago.

Gross Profit 

Gross Profit for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 was $12,519,767 or 29% of revenues as compared to gross profit of $11,069,826 or 33% of revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in gross profit dollars was due to higher sales in the Environmental products and systems group. The decrease percentage in the nine months ended June 30, 2015 was a direct result of lower profit margin jobs shipped during this period as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 increased $1,695,067 or 25% to $10,639,893 from $8,944,826 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 25% for the nine month period ended June 30, 2015 as compared to 26% for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. The increases in operating expenses were primarily due to increases in salaries and fringe benefits, depreciation expense related to the ROB building and additional legal and accounting expenses.

Other Income/(Expense)

Interest and other income/(expense) for the first three quarters of fiscal 2015 was $426,076 as compared to $(189,033) for the first three quarters of fiscal 2014. The income was due primarily to forgiveness of some debt in the Electronics manufacturing group.

Provision for Income Taxes

During the first three quarters of fiscal 2015 we recorded an income tax benefit of $115,000 compared to an income tax provision accrual of $33,700 for the first three quarters of fiscal 2014. The provision for income tax is based upon the projected income tax from the Company’s various U.S. and international subsidiaries that are subject to income taxes.

Net Income/Loss

The Company had net income of $2,420,950 or 6% of revenues, for the nine month period ended June 30, 2015 as compared to a net income of $1,902,267 or 6% of revenues, for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. Net income in the first three quarters increased, as compared to net income in the same period last year, due largely to higher sales in the Environmental products and systems group and the forgiveness of debt in the Electronic manufacturing group.

Effects of Inflation

The Company’s business and operations have not been materially affected by inflation during the periods for which financial information is presented.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital was $6,375,415 at June 30, 2015 compared to $7,631,897 at September 30, 2014. This includes cash and cash equivalents of $872,795 at June 30, 2015 and $146,095 at September 30, 2014, respectively. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to increases in trade receivables, inventory, prepaid expenses and other current assets, purchases of property and equipment, payments on affiliated loans, and payments on bank loans, offset by a decrease in other assets, increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses, redemption of short-term investments, and proceeds from convertible notes.

Trade receivables increased $2,704,575 or 67% to $6,742,915 at June 30, 2015 from $4,038,340 at September 30, 2014. The increase in trade receivables is attributable to the timing of shipments of in-house orders not delivered in the prior quarter and collection of trade receivables.

Inventories increased $6,989 or less than 1% to $6,277,316 at June 30, 2015 from $6,270,327 at September 30, 2014. The increase in inventories was due to timing management of purchases for in-house orders.

Operating activities provided $3,107,487 of cash for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 compared to using cash of $1,336,662 of cash for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in operating cash flows was primarily due to the increase of trade payables during the nine months ended June 30, 2015.

Investment activities used $386,392 of cash for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 compared to using cash of $13,434,392 during the nine month period ended June 30, 2014. Investing activities were primarily driven by the purchase of property and equipment offset by the redemption of short-term investments.

Financing activities used $1,994,395 of cash for the nine month period ended June 30, 2015 as compared to providing cash of $16,014,329 in the nine month period ended June 30, 2014. Financing activities were primarily driven by payments on bank and affiliated loans offset by proceeds from convertible notes payable.

We believe that our cash on hand, cash generated by operations, is sufficient to meet the capital demands of our current operations during the 2015 fiscal year (ending September 30, 2015). Any major increases in sales, particularly in new products, may require substantial capital investment. Failure to obtain sufficient capital could materially adversely impact our growth potential.
