PART I
Item
1. Business
General
Servotronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries
(collectively the “Registrant” or the “Company”) design, manufacture and market
advanced technology products consisting primarily of control components and
consumer products consisting of knives and various types of
cutlery.
The Company was incorporated in New
York in 1959. In 1972, the Company was merged into a wholly-owned subsidiary
organized under the laws of the State of Delaware, thereby changing the
Company’s state of incorporation from New York to Delaware.
The Company’s shares currently trade on
the NYSE Amex under the symbol SVT.
Products
Advanced Technology
Products
The Company designs, manufactures and
markets a variety of servo-control components which convert an electrical
current into a mechanical force or movement and other related products. The
principal servo-control components produced include torque motors,
electromagnetic actuators, hydraulic valves, pneumatic valves and similar
devices, all of which perform the same general function. These are sold
principally to the commercial aerospace, missile, aircraft and government
related industries, as well as medical and industrial markets.
To fill most of its orders for
components, the Company must either modify a standard model or design a new item
in order to satisfy the customer’s particular requirements. The Company also
produces unique products based on specifications provided by its customers. The
Company produces under long-term contracts and other types of
orders.
The Company may from time to time
produce metallic seals of various cross-sectional configurations. These seals
fit between two surfaces, usually metal, to produce a more secure and leak-proof
joint. The Company manufactures these seals to close tolerances from standard
and special alloy steels. Ductile coatings are often applied to the seals in
order to increase their effectiveness.
From time to time, the Company has also
produced other products of its own and/or of a given design to meet customers’
requirements.
Consumer Products
The Company designs, manufactures and
sells a variety of cutlery products. These products include a wide range of
kitchen knives such as steak, carving, bread, butcher and paring knives for
household use and for use in restaurants, institutions and private industry, and
pocket and other types of knives for hunting, fishing and camping. The Company
sells cutlery products to the U.S. Government and related agencies. These
products include machetes, bayonets and other types of knives that are primarily
for military use. The Company also produces and markets other cutlery items such
as various specialty tools, putty knives, linoleum sheet cutters and field
knives. The Company manufactures its cutlery products from stainless or high
carbon steel in numerous styles, designs, models and sizes. Substantially all of
the Company’s commercial cutlery related products are intended for the medium to
premium priced markets.
The Company sells many of its cutlery
products under its own brand names including “Old Hickory” and
“Queen.”

Sales,
Marketing and Distribution
Advanced Technology
Products
The Company’s advanced technology
products are marketed throughout the United States and in selected foreign
markets. Products are primarily non-seasonal in nature. These products are sold
to the United States Government, government prime contractors, government
subcontractors, commercial manufacturers and end users. Sales are made primarily
by the Company’s professional staff and a field engineering
representative.
During the Company’s 2008 fiscal year,
sales of advanced technology products pursuant to subcontracts with prime or
subcontractors for various branches of the United States Government or pursuant
to prime contracts directly with the government accounted for approximately 20%
of the Company’s total sales as compared to 17% in 2007. In 2008 and 2007, the
Company’s sales of advanced technology products to one customer, including
various divisions and subsidiaries of a common parent company, amounted to
approximately 23% in 2008 and 22% in 2007. The Company also had sales to another
customer that amounted to approximately 12% of total sales in 2008 and 11% in
2007. No other single customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s sales
in any of these years.
The Company’s prime contracts and
subcontracts with the United States Government are subject to termination for
the convenience of the Government. In the event of such termination, the Company
is ordinarily entitled to receive payment for its costs and profits on work done
prior to termination. Since the inception of the Company’s business, less than
1% of its Government contracts have been terminated for
convenience.
Consumer Products
The Company’s consumer products are
marketed throughout the United States and in selected foreign markets. Consumer
sales are moderately seasonal. Sales are to hardware, supermarket, variety,
department, discount, gift and drug stores. The Company’s Consumer Products
Group (CPG) also sells its cutlery products (principally machetes, bayonets,
survival knives and kitchen knives) to various branches of the United States
Government which accounted for approximately 22% of the Company’s total sales in
2008 as compared to 29% in 2007. No other single customer of the CPG represented
more than 10% of the Company’s sales in 2008. The Company sells its products
through its own sales personnel and through independent manufacturers’
representatives.
Business
Segments
Business segment information is
presented in Note 10, Business Segments, of the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.
Intellectual
Properties
The Company has rights under certain
copyrights, trademarks, patents, and registered domain names. In the view of
management, the Company’s competitive position is not dependent on patent
protection.
-4-
Research
Activities
The amount spent by the Company in
research and development activities during its 2008 and 2007 fiscal years was
not significant.
Environmental
Compliance
The Company does not anticipate that
the cost of compliance with current environmental laws will be
material.
Manufacturing
The Company manufactures its consumer
products in Franklinville, New York and Titusville, Pennsylvania and its
advanced technology products in Elma, New York.
Raw
Materials and Other Supplies
The Company purchases raw materials and
certain components for its products from outside vendors. The Company is
generally not dependent upon a single source of supply for any raw material or
component used in its operations.
Competition
Although no reliable industry
statistics are available to enable the Company to determine accurately its
relative competitive position with respect to any of its products, the Company
believes that it is a significant factor with respect to certain of its
servo-control components. The Company’s share of the overall cutlery market is
not significant.
The Company encounters active
competition with respect to its products from numerous companies, many of which
are larger in terms of manufacturing capacity, financial resources and marketing
organization. Its principal competitors vary depending upon the customer and/or
the products involved. The Company believes that it competes primarily with more
than 20 companies with respect to its consumer products, in addition to foreign
imports. To the Company’s knowledge, its principal competitors with regard to
cutlery include World Kitchen, Inc., Benchmade Knife Company, Inc., Tramontina,
Inc., Dexter-Russell Inc., W. R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company, Lifetime Hoan
Corp., and Gerber.
The Company has many different
competitors with respect to servo-control components because of the nature of
that business and the fact that these products also face competition from other
types of control components which, at times, can accomplish the desired
result.
The Company markets most of its
products throughout the United States and to a lesser extent in selected foreign
markets. The Company believes that it competes in marketing its consumer
products primarily on the basis of price, quality and delivery, and its control
products primarily on the basis of operating performance, adherence to rigid
specifications, quality, price and delivery.
Employees
The Company, at December 31, 2008, had
approximately 296 employees of which approximately 278 are full time; 235 in
Western New York and 43 in Pennsylvania. In excess of 83% of its employees are
engaged in production, inspection, packaging or shipping activities. The balance
are engaged in executive, engineering, administrative, clerical or sales
capacities.

7. Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Business
Overview
The
aviation and aerospace industries as well as markets for the Company’s consumer
products are facing new and evolving challenges on a global basis. The
operations of the Company can be affected by the trends of the economy,
including interest rates, income tax laws, government regulation, legislation,
and other factors. In addition, uncertainties in today’s global economy,
competition from expanding manufacturing capabilities and technical
sophistication of low-cost developing countries, particularly in South and East
Asia, currency policies in relation to the U.S. dollar of some major foreign
exporting countries so as to maintain or increase a pricing advantage of their
exports vis-à-vis U.S. manufactured goods, the effect of terrorism, difficulty
in predicting defense and other government appropriations, the vitality of the
commercial aviation industry and its ability to purchase new aircraft, the
willingness and ability of the Company’s customers to fund long-term purchase
programs, volatile market demand and the continued market acceptance of the
Company’s advanced technology and cutlery products make it difficult to predict
the impact on future financial results.
Both
the ATG and CPG markets are sensitive to domestic and foreign economic
conditions and policies, which may create volatility in operating results, from
period to period. For example, the airline industry is sensitive to fuel price
increases and economic conditions. These factors directly impact the demand for
aircraft production as well as the amount of repair and overhaul required on
in-service aircraft.
Government procurements are subject to
Congressional appropriations and priorities that may change from year to year.
Such changes could result in, but are not limited thereto, the expansion and/or
contraction of Government procurement requirements, a reduction in funding, the
continuation or termination of existing programs, the introduction of new
programs requiring the funds that were originally directed to current programs,
a stretch-out in Government delivery requirements or such other U.S. Government
determinations that could result in increases or reductions of Government
purchase orders for the ATG and/or the CPG products. The current change of
Administration also makes it increasingly difficult to accurately forecast
Government procurements during and after the transition phase.
The Company’s suppliers are also
subjected to all the pressures and volatility being generated by the current
Global economic conditions. Any interruption of the Company’s continuous flow of
material and product parts that are required for the manufacture of the
Company’s products could adversely impact the Company’s ability to meet the
Company’s Customers’ delivery requirements. Consistent with the evolving
requirements of the Aerospace Industry, companies are increasingly being
requested to operate under Long-Term Agreements with their Customers on the
basis of fixed prices, on the basis of targeted year to year price reductions
and/or on the basis of year to year price adjustments predicated on mutually
agreed indices and/or a combination of some or all of the above described
pricing arrangements and/or otherwise. Therefore, productivity improvements and
cost containment strategies are continuously sought within the Company’s concept
of continuous improvement. The Company’s products are labor intensive and as
such productivity improvements have positive effects on the Company’s operating
results. However, increased costs for raw
-9-
material,
purchased parts and/or labor will have the reverse effect. Therefore, there are
strong incentives to continuously improve productivity and to contain/reduce
costs.
If any adverse economic events reduce
the number of Airliners and/or Aircraft being produced by the Company’s relevant
prime contractors, the negative effects of that reduction will in turn flow down
through the supply chain. Also, certain major manufacturers have successfully
imposed extended payment terms to their suppliers. At times, these extended
terms of payment are not available to the Company when purchasing raw material
such as aluminum, magnetic material, steel, etc. and/or other product support
items and services. If the Company’s Customers delay their payments until after
the extended due date or fail to pay, it could adversely impact the Company’s
operating results.
The Company’s ability to manufacture
products on a timely basis also depends on the Company’s Suppliers’ on-time
delivery of raw material, sub components, machined parts and other necessary
product support supplies. Interruptions of this flow of purchased materials
could adversely affect the Company’s operations.
Maximizing the Company’s operations
requires continued dedicated performances from the Company’s key and other
personnel. In the Company’s markets and business arenas there is substantial
competition for the services of the highest performing individuals. Competitors,
Customers and other companies who may have interest in the Company’s most
experienced and educated/highly trained personnel (i.e., Managerial, Engineering
and Accounting/Administrative) are a continuing consequence of the Company’s
history of successful operational performance. Any unplanned replacement of such
personnel may require the hiring of new personnel on an expedited basis
(provided they are available) and may temporarily interrupt the Company’s
operations and efforts for continuous improvement.
The final resolution of the U.S. and
Global economic uncertainties, notwithstanding the Stimulus Plans, may have
significant adverse effects on access to capital markets and borrowings for all
companies. However, the Company is essentially self-financed from operations and
currently enjoys an attractive long-term debt/equity ratio.
Management
Discussion
|
During the years ended December 31,
2008 and 2007, approximately 42% and 45%, respectively, of the Company’s
revenues were derived from contracts with agencies of the U.S. Government or
their prime contractors and their subcontractors. Sales of products sold for
government applications have remained consistent when comparing the results of
2008 to 2007, while the amount of government sales varies between business
segments. The Company believes that government involvement in military
operations overseas will continue to have a direct impact on the financial
results in both the Advanced Technology and Consumer Products markets. While the
Company remains optimistic in relation to these opportunities, it recognizes
that sales to the government are affected by defense budgets, the foreign
policies of the U.S. and other nations, the level of military operations and
other factors and, as such, it is difficult to predict the impact on future
financial results. The Company’s commercial business is affected by such factors
as uncertainties in today’s global economy, global competition, the vitality and
ability of the commercial aviation industry to purchase new aircraft, the
effects of terrorism and the threat of terrorism, market demand and acceptance
both for the Company’s products and its customers’ products which incorporate
Company-made components.
In December of 2008, the Aerospace
Industries Association (AIA) stated that the aerospace industry is showing
resiliency in trying economic times, but has not been immune to the effects of
the ongoing global financial crisis. These extremely volatile economic times
create circumstances
-10-
that may
have effects on the Aerospace Industry. The Company’s Advanced Technology Group
revenue increased approximately 22.3% for the year ended December 31, 2008
compared to the same period in 2007 due to increases from existing and new
customers as well as across various product lines. The ATG continues its
aggressive business development efforts in its primary markets and is broadening
its focus to include new – domestic and foreign – markets that are consistent
with its core competencies. There are substantial uncertainties in the current
Global Economy that are compounded with certain Airliner delivery stretch-outs
being considered and to a lesser degree, being implemented which in turn may
adversely affect the Company’s sales revenues in 2009 and beyond. Although the
ATG backlog continues to be strong, actual scheduled shipments may be delayed as
a function of the Company’s customers final delivery determinations that may be
based on changes in the Global Economy and other factors.
The Company’s Consumer Products Group
(CPG) develops new commercial products and products for Government and Military
applications. Included in the significant uncertainties in the near and long
term are the effects of the U. S. and World’s Stimulus Plans and the difficulty
to accurately project the net effect of the change in U.S. Administration on
their government procurement programs. The ATG and CPG continue to respond to
U.S. government procurement Requests for Quotes. New product development
activities are ongoing along with the acquisition of new product
lines.

Sales
The Company’s consolidated sales
increased approximately $2,792,000 or 8.9% for the twelve month period ended
December 31, 2008 when compared to the same period in 2007. The increase in
sales is the result of increased shipments for commercial applications at both
the ATG and CPG as well as increased government related shipments of ATG
products. Shipments for government related products at the CPG were down
approximately 18% or $1,600,000 when comparing 2008 to 2007. This decrease was
partially offset by an approximate 11% or $600,000
-11-
year to
year increase in commercial shipments at the CPG. The reduction in government
shipments is primarily attributed to the timing of the scheduled deliveries
under existing government contracts, some of which extend to May of 2010. The
inherent volatility of Government procurements combined with the yet to be known
effects of the new U.S. National Administration during the transition phase and
beyond are expected to contribute to periodic revenue fluctuations going
forward.
Gross
Profit
As shown in the above table, gross
profit increased approximately $1,681,000 or 20.8% for the twelve month period
ended December 31, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. The ATG gross
profit increased approximately $1,765,000. Increased sales revenue
and cost containment activities for ATG products are primarily the reasons for
the increase in gross profit at the ATG. The CPG gross profit decreased by
$386,000. Decreased sales volume and product mix at the CPG in addition to price
increases for raw material and certain piece part procurements contributed to
the decrease in margins at the CPG. Gross profit as a percentage of sales is
affected by many factors including, but not limited to, the mix of products sold
in the period within the ATG and CPG as well as the composition of ATG and CPG
sales to the total consolidated sales. See Note 10, Business
Segments.
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative
(SG&A) expenses that include variable costs increased for the twelve month
period ended December 31, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 by
approximately $366,000 or 8.7% which compares to an 8.9% increase in sales The
$366,000 increase in SG&A includes approximately $215,000 of increased
expenses relative to contract administration/negotiations, product line
acquisition, product protection (i.e., trademarks, patents) and other costs
associated with the expansion of the ATG and CPG foreign and domestic markets.
The trend is for SG&A expenses to increase as a function of increased
regulations, market expansion and company growth.
Interest
Expense
Interest expense decreased for the
twelve month period ended December 31, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007
due to the decrease in the average outstanding debt and interest rates. Average
debt outstanding will continue to decline as the Company repays its scheduled
debt obligations and assuming the Company does not incur additional debt. See
also Note 4, Long-term debt, of the accompanying consolidated financial
statements for information on long-term debt.
Depreciation
and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expense
remained consistent for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2008 compared
to the same period in 2007. Depreciation expense fluctuates due to variable
estimated useful lives of depreciable property (as identified in Note 1, Summary
of significant accounting policies, of the accompanying consolidated financial
statements) as well as the amount and nature of capital expenditures in current
and previous periods. It is anticipated that the Company’s future capital
expenditures will, at a minimum, follow the Company’s requirements to support
its delivery commitments and to meet the information technology related capital
expenditure requirements that are associated with Sarbanes-Oxley and other new
regulatory requirements.
-12-
Other
Income
Components of other income include
interest income on cash and cash equivalents, and other amounts not directly
related to the sale of the Company’s products. The decrease in other income for
the twelve month period ended December 31, 2008 when compared to the same twelve
month period in 2007 is primarily due to the market driven decline in interest
rates on cash and cash equivalents.
Income
Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate was
33.3% in 2008 and 36.6% in 2007. The effective tax rate in both years reflects
state income taxes, permanent non-deductible expenditures and the tax benefit
for manufacturing deductions allowable under the American Jobs Creation Act of
2004 as well as reductions in New York State’s statutory tax rate and income
apportionment formula. See also Note 6, Income tax provision, of the
accompanying consolidated financial statements for information concerning income
taxes.
Net
Income
Net income increased $1,003,000 or
48.9% when comparing the twelve month period ended December 31, 2008 to the same
period in 2007. The increase in net income is primarily a result of increased
sales at the ATG and a favorable mix of products and cost containment activities
at the ATG. The CPG’s year to year reduction in profit of $386,000 as depicted
in Note 10, Business Segments, is primarily attributed to the reduction in
sales, the mix of products sold and increased costs for raw material and
purchased parts. As previously described under Selling, General and
Administrative Expenses herein, there were increased expenses amounting to
approximately $215,000 relative to contract administration/negotiations, product
line acquisition and product protection (i.e., trademarks, patents) in addition
to certain administrative expenses associated with the expansion of the ATG and
CPG foreign and domestic markets.

Sales
The Company’s consolidated sales
increased approximately $6,830,000 or 27.8% for the twelve month period ended
December 31, 2007 when compared to the same period in 2006. The increase in
sales is the result of increased shipments for commercial and government
applications at the ATG as well as increased government related shipments of CPG
products under existing contracts.
Gross
Profit
As shown in the above table, gross
profit increased by 39.7% for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2007
compared to the same period in 2006. Increased sales volume is primarily the
source for the dollar value increase in gross profit. Gross profit as a
percentage of sales is affected by many factors including the mix of products
sold in the period within the ATG and CPG as well as the composition of ATG and
CPG sales to the total consolidated sales.
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative
(SG&A) expenses that include variable costs increased for the twelve month
period ended December 31, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 by
approximately $568,000. The increase in SG&A is primarily due to the
increase in costs associated with the settlement of the Company’s qualified
defined benefit plans at both the ATG and CPG of approximately $686,000. See
also Note 5, Employee benefit plans, of the accompanying consolidated financial
statements for further information on costs associated with the
settlement.
Interest
Expense
Interest expense decreased for the
twelve month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006
due to the decrease in the average outstanding debt despite the increases in the
market driven interest rates. Average debt outstanding will continue to decline
as the Company repays its scheduled debt obligations and assuming the Company
does not incur additional debt. See also Note 4, Long-term debt, of the
accompanying consolidated financial statements for information on long-term
debt.
Depreciation
and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expense
decreased approximately 10.7% for the twelve month period ended December 31,
2007 compared to the same period in 2006 due to variable estimated useful lives
of depreciable property (as identified in Note 1, Summary of significant
accounting policies, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements) as
well as the amount and nature of capital expenditures in current and previous
periods.
Other
Income
Components of other income include
interest income on cash and cash equivalents, and other amounts not directly
related to the sale of the Company’s products. The decrease in other income for
the twelve month period ended December 31, 2007 when compared to the same twelve
month period in 2006 is primarily due to a partial payment of an insurance
recovery in 2006. There was no significant recovery in 2007.
-14-
Income
Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate was
36.6% in 2007 and 37.0% in 2006. The effective tax rate in both years reflects
state income taxes, permanent non-deductible expenditures and the tax benefit
for manufacturing deductions allowable under the American Jobs Creation Act of
2004 as well as reductions in New York State’s statutory tax rate and income
apportionment formula. See also Note 6, Income tax provision, of the
accompanying consolidated financial statements for information concerning income
taxes.
Net
Income
Net income increased $956,000 or 87.2%
when comparing the twelve month period ended December 31, 2007 to the same
period in 2006. The increase in income is the result of increased sales at both
the ATG and CPG for products with favorable margins as well as the other factors
as discussed above.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
The Company’s primary liquidity and
capital requirements relate to working capital needs; primarily inventory,
accounts receivable, capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment and
principal and interest payments on debt.
At December 31, 2008, the Company had
working capital of approximately $16,227,000 ($14,572,000 – 2007) of which
approximately $4,709,000 ($4,879,000 – 2007) was comprised of cash and cash
equivalents. The Company generated approximately $2,169,000 in cash from
operations during the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to
$2,450,000 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2007. Cash was generated
from operations through an increase in net income as previously discussed. The
primary reasons for the increase in the uses of cash for the Company’s operating
activities for twelve month period ended December 31, 2008 include payments of
approximately $1,814,000 in income taxes and increases in accounts receivable
and inventory costs aggregating $2,585,000 offset by the increase in accounts
payable due to timing differences of when goods and services are received verses
when payments are due. ATG and CPG customers are increasingly requesting and/or
requiring stock inventory in order to facilitate assurance of meeting their
often volatile delivery schedule needs. As these requirements increase, they
directly impact comparative cash flows when implemented and increases inventory
levels when it is a continuing requirement. Additionally, at times, the Company
takes advantage of price discounts on volume purchases for common parts. Cash
generated and used in operations is consistent with increased sales volume,
customer expectations and competitive pressures.
The Company’s primary use of cash in
its financing and investing activities during the twelve months ended December
31, 2008 related to capital expenditures for equipment, principal payments on
long-term debt as well as approximately $348,000 in a cash dividend paid on
March 14, 2008 to shareholders of record on February 20, 2008. The Company also
expended $1,101,000 to purchase outstanding stock options and treasury shares.
In January 2006, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 250,000
shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The shares may be purchased in
the open market or in privately negotiated transactions; and at times and in
amounts that the Company deems appropriate. On October 31, 2008, the Company
announced that its Board of Directors authorized the purchase of an additional
200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Company’s current
purchase program. As of February 28, 2009, the Company has purchased 237,145
shares and there remain 212,855 shares available to purchase under this
program.
At December 31, 2008, there are no
material commitments for capital expenditures.
-15-
The Company also has a $1,000,000 line
of credit on which there is no balance outstanding at December 31, 2008 or 2007.
If needed, this can be used to fund cash flow required for
operations.
The Company believes that it has
adequate internal and external resources available to fund expected working
capital and capital expenditure requirements through fiscal 2009 as supported by
the level of cash and cash equivalents and bank lines of credit.
Off
Balance Sheet Arrangements
None.
Critical
Accounting Policies
The Company prepares its consolidated
financial statements in accordance with GAAP. As such, the Company is required
to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that the Company believes
are reasonable based upon the information available. These estimates and
assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date
of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could differ
significantly from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
The Company believes that the following discussion addresses the Company’s most
critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the
portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and
which require the Company’s most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a
result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are
inherently uncertain. Note 1, Summary of significant accounting policies, of the
accompanying consolidated financial statements includes a summary of the
significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the consolidated
financial statements.
New
Accounting Pronouncements
|
Management reviewed recent accounting
pronouncements and has not determined the effect these pronouncements will have
on Financial Statement results. See Note 1, Summary of significant accounting
policies, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further
discussion of new accounting pronouncements.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenues are recognized as services are
rendered or as units are shipped at the designated FOB point consistent with the
transfer of title, risks and rewards of ownership. Such purchase orders
generally include specific terms relative to quantity, item description,
specifications, price, customer responsibility for in-process costs, delivery
schedule, shipping point, payment and other standard terms and conditions of
purchase.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of
standard cost or net realizable value. Cost includes all cost incurred to bring
each product to its present location and condition, which approximates actual
cost (first-in, first-out). Market provisions in respect to net realizable value
and obsolescence are applied to the gross value of the inventory. Pre-production
and start-up costs are expensed as incurred.
-16-
Employee
Benefit Plans
The Company provides a range of
benefits to its employees and retired employees. The Company records annual
amounts relating to these plans based on calculations specified by GAAP, which
includes various actuarial assumptions, such as discount rates, assumed rates of
return on plan assets and health care cost trend rates. The Company believes
that the assumptions utilized in recording its obligations under its plans are
reasonable based on advice from its actuaries. As discussed in Note 5, Employee
benefit plans, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the
Company’s defined benefit plans were settled in 2007 with no future costs
associated with them after 2007.
Use
of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated
financial statements in conformity with 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
during the reporting period. Such estimates include, but are not limited to,
reserves and allowances for inventories and trade receivables. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.

Item
9A(T). Controls
and Procedures
(i) Disclosure Controls and
Procedures
The Company carried out an evaluation
under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including
the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer
(“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures as of December 31, 2008. Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO
concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in
timely alerting them to the material information relating to the Company (or the
Company’s consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company’s
periodic filings with the SEC, such that the information relating to the
Company, required to be disclosed in SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and
forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management,
including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
-17-
(ii) Management’s
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management, with the
participation of the Company’s CEO and CFO, is responsible for establishing and
maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s
management has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. In making this assessment,
management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated
Framework. Based on this assessment management has concluded that, as of
December 31, 2008, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is
effective based on those criteria.
This annual report does not include an
attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding
internal control over financial reporting because the management’s report was
not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm
pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only
management’s report in this annual report.
(iii) Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2008 that
have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting.

FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
In
addition to historical information, certain sections of this Form 10-K contain
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as
those pertaining to the Company’s capital resources and profitability.
Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Company
derives a material portion of its revenues from contracts with agencies of the
U.S. Government or their prime contractors. The
-24-
Company’s
business is performed under fixed price contracts and the following factors,
among others discussed herein, could cause actual results and future events to
differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking
statements: uncertainties in today’s global economy, global competition,
difficulty in predicting defense appropriations, the vitality of the commercial
aviation industry and its ability to purchase new aircraft, the willingness and
ability of the Company’s customers to fund long-term purchase programs and
market demand and acceptance both for the Company’s products and its customers’
products which incorporate Company-made components. The operations of the
Company can be affected by the trends of the economy, including interest rates,
income tax laws, governmental regulation, legislation, population changes and
those factors discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-K. Readers are cautioned not
to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect
management’s analysis only as the date hereof. The Company assumes no obligation
to update forward-looking statements.

Report of
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the
Board of Directors and Shareholders
Servotronics,
Inc. and Subsidiaries
We have
audited the consolidated balance sheets of Servotronics, Inc. and Subsidiaries
(the “Company”) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated
statements of operations and cash flows for the years then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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. An audit also includes 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 financial position of Servotronics, Inc. and
Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
|
1.
|
Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
|
Principles
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Servotronics, Inc. and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”).
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers cash and cash equivalents to include all cash accounts and
short-term investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or
less.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenues
are recognized as services are rendered or as units are shipped and at the
designated FOB point consistent with the transfer of title, risks and rewards of
ownership. Such purchase orders generally include specific terms relative to
quantity, item description, specifications, price, customer responsibility for
in-process costs, delivery schedule, shipping point, payment and other standard
terms and conditions of purchase.
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of standard cost or net realizable value. Cost includes
all cost incurred to bring each product to its present location and condition,
which approximates actual cost (first-in, first-out). Market provisions in
respect of net realizable value and inventory expected to be used in greater
than one year are applied to the gross value of the inventory through a reserve
of approximately $524,000 and $646,000 at December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively. Pre-production and start-up costs are expensed as
incurred.
The purchase of suppliers’ minimum
economic quantities of material such as steel, etc. may result in a purchase of
quantities exceeding one year of customer requirements. Also, in order to
maintain a reasonable and/or agreed to lead time, certain larger quantities of
other product support items may have to be purchased and may result in over one
year’s supply.
Shipping
and Handling Costs
Shipping
and handling costs are classified as a component of cost of goods
sold.
Property,
Plant and Equipment
Property,
plant and equipment is carried at cost; expenditures for new facilities and
equipment and expenditures which substantially increase the useful lives of
existing plant and equipment are capitalized; expenditures for maintenance and
repairs are expensed as incurred. Upon disposal of properties, the related cost
and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any
profit or loss on disposition is included in income.
Depreciation is provided on the
basis of estimated useful lives of depreciable properties, primarily by the
straight-line method for financial statement purposes and by accelerated methods
for tax purposes. Depreciation expense includes the amortization of capital
lease assets. The estimated useful lives of depreciable properties are generally
as follows:

Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting
for Income Taxes.” SFAS No. 109 requires the recognition of deferred tax
liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of operating
loss and credit carryforwards and temporary differences between the carrying
amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. The Company and its
subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return, a consolidated New
York State income tax return and a separate Pennsylvania state income tax
return.
The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties
related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company did not have
any accrued interest or penalties included in its consolidated balance sheets at
December 31, 2008 or 2007, and did not recognize any interest and/or penalties
in its consolidated statements of operations during the years ended December 31,
2008 and 2007.
Employee
Stock Ownership Plan
Contributions
to the employee stock ownership plan are determined annually by the Company
according to plan formula.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
The
Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in
business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not
be fully recoverable based on undiscounted future operating cash flow analyses.
If an impairment is determined to exist, any related impairment loss is
calculated based on fair value. Impairment losses on assets to be disposed of,
if any, are based on the estimated proceeds to be received, less costs of
disposal. The Company has determined that no impairment of long lived assets
existed at December 31, 2008 and 2007.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (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
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Research
and Development Costs
Research
and development costs are expensed as incurred as defined in SFAS No. 2,
Accounting for Research and Development Costs.
Concentration
of Credit Risks
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit
risks principally consist of cash accounts in financial institutions. Although
the accounts exceed the federally insured deposit amount, management does not
anticipate nonperformance by the

In
September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement No. 157 “Fair Value Measurement.” This Statement defines fair
value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company adopted the
provisions of SFAS 157 in the first quarter of 2008 which did not have an
impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In February of 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 157-2 which
delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for non-financial assets and
liabilities which are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at
least annually) until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of adopting the
provisions of SFAS 157 for our non-financial assets and liabilities on the
Company’s consolidated financial statements.
|
|||||||||||
In
February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No.159
permits companies to elect to follow fair value accounting for certain
financial assets and liabilities in an effort to mitigate volatility in
earnings without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The
standard also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements
designed to facilitate comparison between entities that choose different
measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS
No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.
The Company adopted SFAS 159 in 2008 and elected not to apply the fair
value measurement option for any of our financial assets or
liabilities.
|

Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective,
accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on
the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
|
|||||||||||
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
|
|||||||||||
The
carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
inventories, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reasonable
estimates of their fair value due to their short maturity. Based on
variable interest rates and the borrowing rates currently available to the
Company for loans similar to its long-term debt, the fair value
approximates its carrying amount.

(A) The
Industrial Development Revenue Bonds were issued by a government agency to
finance the construction of the Company’s headquarters/Advanced Technology
facility. Annual sinking fund payments of $170,000 commenced December 1,
2000 and continue through 2013, with a final payment of $2,620,000 due
December 1, 2014. The Company has agreed to reimburse the issuer of the
letter of credit if there are draws on that letter of credit. The Company
pays the letter of credit bank an annual fee of 1% of the amount secured
thereby and pays the remarketing agent for the bonds an annual fee of .25%
of the principal amount outstanding. The Company’s interest under the
facility capital lease has been pledged to secure its obligations to the
government agency, the bank and the bondholders.
|

Principal
maturities of long-term debt are as follows: 2009 - $539,000,
2010 - $321,000, 2011 - $323,000, 2012 - $202,000, 2013 - $192,000 and
thereafter - $2,664,000.

The
Company also has a $1,000,000 line of credit on which there is no balance
outstanding at December 31, 2008 or 2007.
|
||
Certain
lenders require the Company to comply with debt covenants as described in
the specific loan documents, including a debt service ratio. At December
31, 2008 and 2007, the Company was in compliance with all of its debt
covenants.

Employee
Benefit Plans
|
|
Employee
Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
|
||
In
1985, the Company established an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) for
the benefit of employees who meet certain minimum age and service
requirements. Upon inception of the ESOP, the Company borrowed $2,000,000
from a bank and lent the proceeds to the trust established under the ESOP
to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company’s loan to
the trust is at an interest rate approximating the prime rate and is
repayable to the Company over a 40-year term ending in December 2024.
During 1987 and 1988, the Company loaned an additional $1,942,000 to the
trust under terms similar to those under the Company’s original
loan.
|
||
ESOP
shares are held by the plan trustees in a suspense account until allocated
to participant accounts. Each year the Company makes contributions to the
trust sufficient to enable the trust to repay the principal and interest
due to the Company under the trust loans. As the loans are repaid, shares
are released from the suspense account pro rata based on the
portion of the aggregate loan payments that are paid during the year.
Dividends on unallocated ESOP shares are also used to repay the ESOP loan.
In 2008 approximately $117,000 in dividends on ESOP shares were used to
pay down the loan, there were no dividends in 2007. ESOP shares
released from the suspense account are allocated to participants on the
basis of their relative compensation in the year of allocation. For this
purpose, “compensation” means taxable pay.
|
||
If
requested by a participant, the Company is obligated to repurchase ESOP
shares distributed to the participant upon termination of employment or
retirement, if the shares are not then readily tradable on an established
securities market. The Company’s shares currently trade on NYSE Amex,
formerly known as the American Stock Exchange. There were no outstanding
shares subject to the repurchase obligation at December 31,
2008.

TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Since
inception of the ESOP, approximately 464,826 shares have been allocated,
exclusive of shares distributed to ESOP participants. At December 31, 2008
and 2007 approximately 305,061 and 345,305 shares, respectively, purchased
by the ESOP remain unallocated.
|
|||||||||||
Related
compensation expense associated with the Company’s ESOP, which is equal to
the principal reduction on the loans receivable from the trust, amounted
to $218,000 in 2008 and $101,000 in 2007. Included as a reduction to
shareholders’ equity is the ESOP trust commitment which represents the
remaining indebtedness of the trust to the Company. Employees are
entitled to vote allocated shares and the ESOP trustees are entitled to
vote unallocated shares and those allocated shares not voted by the
employees.

Other
Postretirement Benefit Plans

The
Company provides certain post retirement health and life insurance
benefits for certain executives of the Company. Upon retirement and after
attaining at least the age of 65, the Company will pay the annual cost of
health insurance for the retired executives and dependents and will
continue the Company provided life insurance offered at the time of
retirement. The retiree’s health insurance benefits ceases upon the death
of the retired executive. The actuarially calculated future obligation of
the benefits at December 31, 2008 and 2007 is $257,044 and $181,935,
respectively, and is being amortized into expense at a rate of
approximately $20,000 per year. Estimated future annual expenses
associated with the plan are immaterial. Included in accumulated other
comprehensive loss for 2008 and 2007 is approximately $98,000 and $67,000,
respectively, net of deferred taxes, associated with the unrecognized
service cost of the plan.

In
January of 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the purchase by the
Company of up to 250,000 shares of its common stock in the open market or in
privately negotiated transactions. On October 31, 2008, the Company announced
that its Board of Directors authorized the purchase of an additional 200,000
shares of the Company’s common stock under the Company’s current purchase
program. As of February 28, 2009, the Company has purchased 237,145 shares and
there remain 212,855 shares available to purchase under this
program.
Consistent
with the Company’s current policy to reduce the number of outstanding Company
shares thereby increasing the reported earnings per share, the executive
officers, directors and certain employees elected on February 4, 2008 to
surrender 104,200 unexercised options to the Company in exchange for a cash
payment equal to the difference between the exercise price and the average of
the high and the low market price of the Company’s common stock on the day of
surrender less an administrative charge. Such transactions aggregated $771,909.
A tax benefit of

TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
$263,277
associated with these transactions reduced taxes payable and was credited
directly to equity.
On January
31, 2008, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a $0.15 per
share cash dividend. The dividend was paid on March 14, 2008 to shareholders of
record on February 20, 2008 and was approximately $348,000 in the aggregate.
This dividend does not represent that the Company will pay dividends on a
regular or scheduled basis.
Other
Comprehensive Loss
The only component of other
comprehensive loss included in equity at December 31, 2008 is $98,000 of
unrecognized actuarial losses and net transition obligations for post
retirement, health and life insurance benefits (see Note 5 Employee Benefit
Plans). These amounts are shown net of income tax of $57,000 and are consistent
with the adoption of SFAS No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit
Pension and Other Postretirement Plans.
Earnings
Per Share
Basic earnings per share is
computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by
dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares outstanding
during the period plus the number of shares of common stock that would be issued
assuming all contingently issuable shares having a dilutive effect on earnings
per share were outstanding for the period. Incremental shares from assumed
conversions are calculated as the number of shares that would be issued, net of
the number of shares that could be purchased in the marketplace with the cash
received upon stock option exercise.

Company
has granted options to certain Directors, Officers and employees. In December
2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 123R, Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”).
SFAS 123R supersedes SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, and
Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees
(“APB 25”) and its related implementation guidance. Prior to the adoption of
SFAS 123R, the Company applied APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in
accounting for these Plans and the separate option agreements. Accordingly, no
compensation expense has been charged to earnings in 2006 or prior years as
stock options granted have an exercise price equal to the market price on the
date of grant. For the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, there was no
compensation expense recognized in earnings pursuant to the provisions of FAS
123R. At December 31, 2008, 101,100 stock options were available for
issuance under these plans (84,100 under the Servotronics, Inc. 2000 Employee
Stock Option Plan and 17,000 under the 2001 Long-Term Stock
Incentive Plan). Options granted under these plans have durations of ten years
and vesting periods ranging from immediate vesting to four (4) years.
A summary
of the status of options granted under all employee plans is presented

The aggregate
intrinsic value in the preceding table represents the total pretax intrinsic
value based on the closing stock price of $5.52 at December 31,
2008.
As previously
reported, and consistent with the Company’s current policy to reduce the number
of outstanding Company shares thereby increasing the reported earnings per
share, the executive officers, directors and certain employees elected on
February 4, 2008 to surrender certain unexercised options to the Company in
exchange for a cash payment equal to the difference between the exercise price
and the average of the high and the low market price of the Company’s common
stock on the day of surrender less an administrative charge. Such transactions
aggregated $771,909.

Shareholders’
Rights Plan
|
|
During
2002, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted a shareholders’ rights plan
(the “Rights Plan”) and simultaneously declared a dividend distribution of
one Right for each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock
outstanding at August 28, 2002. The Rights Plan replaced a previous
shareholders rights plan that was adopted in 1992 and expired on August
28, 2002. The Rights do not become exercisable until the earlier of (i)
the date of the Company’s public announcement that a person or affiliated
group other than Dr. Nicholas D. Trbovich or the ESOP trust (an “Acquiring
Person”) has acquired, or obtained the right to acquire, beneficial
ownership of 25% or more of the Company’s common stock (excluding shares
held by the ESOP trust) or (ii) ten business days following the
commencement of a tender offer that would result in a person or affiliated
group becoming an Acquiring Person.
|
|
The
exercise price of a Right has been established at $32.00. Once
exercisable, each Right would entitle the holder to purchase one
one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock.
In the event that any person becomes an Acquiring Person, each Right would
entitle any holder other than the Acquiring Person to purchase common
stock or other securities of the Company having a value equal to three
times the exercise price. The Board of Directors has the discretion in
such event to exchange two shares of common stock or two one-hundredths of
a share of preferred stock for each Right held by any holder other than
the Acquiring Person.

Business
Segments
|
The
Company operates in two business segments, Advanced Technology Group (ATG)
and Consumer Products Group (CPG). The Company’s reportable segments are
strategic business units that offer different products and services. The
segments are composed of separate corporations and are managed separately.
Operations in ATG primarily involve the design, manufacture, and marketing
of servo-control components (i.e., torque motors, control valves,
actuators, etc.) for government, commercial and industrial applications.
CPG’s operations involve the design, manufacture and marketing of a
variety of cutlery products for use by consumers and government agencies.
The Company derives its primary sales revenue from domestic customers,
although a portion of finished products are for foreign end
use.
