NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.
Basis of Presentation
 
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
 
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2009 annual report and the notes thereto.
 
2.
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. Cash equivalents consist primarily of short-term certificates of deposit.
 
 
Certificates of Deposit
 
 
Certificates of Deposit are classified as available for sale, and are carried at fair value. The investments plus interest earned amounted to approximately $253,000 at September 30, 2010 and $495,000 at December 31, 2009. There were no unrealized gains or losses since cost approximates fair value as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. In accordance with ASC 820, the valuations of Certificates of Deposit are determined by observing Level 1 - market value inputs.
 
 
Accounts Receivable
 
 
The Company grants credit to substantially all of its customers and carries its accounts receivable at original invoice amount less an allowance for doubtful accounts. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates its accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on history of past write-offs, collections, and current credit conditions. The allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to approximately $92,000 at September 30, 2010 and $91,000 at December 31, 2009.
 
 
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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


 
 
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 $623,000 at September 30, 2010 and $548,000 at December 31, 2009. 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 over the shorter of their estimated useful life or the lease term. The estimated useful lives of depreciable properties are generally as follows:
 
 
Buildings and improvements
 
5-39 years
     
Machinery and equipment
 
5-15 years
     
Tooling
 
3-5 years
 
 
Income Taxes
 
 
The Company recognizes 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, a separate Pennsylvania state income tax return and a separate Arkansas 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 September 30, 2010 or December 31, 2009, and did not recognize any interest and/or penalties in its consolidated statements of income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.
 
 
During the third quarter of 2009, the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance (NYS) commenced an examination of the Company’s New York State franchise tax return for the years 2005 through 2007. In the third quarter of 2010, the examination was complete resulting in no change to the Company’s originally filed returns.

Supplemental cash flow information
 
 
Income taxes paid during the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 amounted to approximately $62,000 and $191,000, respectively, and amounted to $475,000 and $392,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Interest paid during the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 amounted to approximately $16,000 and $17,000, respectively, and amounted to $50,000 and $64,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company recognized a non-cash tax benefit of approximately $190,000 related to the surrender of unexercised stock options.
 
 
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 no circumstances that would require testing of impairment of long lived assets existed at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
 
 
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.
 
 
Reclassifications
 
 
Certain balances as previously reported were reclassified to conform with classifications adopted in the current period.
 
Research and Development Costs
 
 
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
 
 
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 financial institutions. The Company engages in a significant amount of business with the United States Government through sales to its prime contractors and otherwise.
 
 
Total sales to United States Government at Advanced Technology Group (ATG) and Consumer Products Group (CPG) amounted to approximately 39% and 56% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and 43% and 52% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Sales to one customer, including various divisions and subsidiaries of a common parent company, amounted to approximately 24% and 18% as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company also had sales to another customer that amounted to approximately 12% and 11% as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. No other single customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s revenues in any of these periods.

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.

Capital Lease – Related Party
 
 
On November 3, 2009, the Company entered into a capital lease with a related party of the Company for certain equipment to be used in the expansion of the Company’s capabilities and product lines which was appropriately disclosed in the Company’s Form 8-K filing on November 3, 2009. See Note 10, Related Party Transactions, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information on the related party transaction. Monthly payments of $7,500, which include an imputed fixed interest rate of 2.00%, commenced November 3, 2009 and will continue through the fourth quarter of 2016. At September 30, 2010, the present value of the minimal lease payment is approximately $515,000 (after subtracting approximately $32,000 of imputed interest).

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 September 30, 2010, the Company has purchased 238,088 shares and there remain 211,912 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 May 20, 2010 to surrender 101,200 unexercised options to the Company in exchange for a cash payment equal to the difference between the exercise price and closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the day of surrender less an administrative charge. Such transactions aggregated $573,000. A tax benefit of approximately $190,000 associated with these transactions reduced taxes payable and was credited directly to capital in excess of par value.
 
 
As previously reported, on February 22, 2010, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a $0.15 per share cash dividend. The dividend was paid on March 31, 2010 to shareholders of record on March 10, 2010 and was approximately $336,000 in the aggregate. This third consecutive annual dividend does not represent that the Company will pay dividends on a regular or scheduled basis.

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.

Commitments
 
 
The Company leases certain equipment and real property pursuant to operating lease arrangements. Total rental expense in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 and future minimum payments under such leases are not material to the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company also leases certain personal property being accounted for under a capital lease. See also Note 5, Long-Term Debt, Note 6, Capital Lease – Related Party, and Note 10, Related Party Transactions, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information on the capital leases.
 
10.
Related Party Transactions
 
 
During 2009, the Company formed a new wholly owned Subsidiary that leased certain personal property from a related party through the execution of a capital lease. See Note 6, Capital Lease – Related Party, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company also entered into a real property lease agreement, with the same related party, which provides for annual rental of $60,000. In addition, in the event the Company is successful in obtaining certain tax and/or other incentives from the state the entity operates in, the Company will be required to purchase the building at the appraised value of $506,000. Additionally, in the event that the Company purchases the building, there is an arrangement payable to the related party, providing a threshold in annual earnings is reached by the new subsidiary, which will result in a percentage payment which could be as low as $0 (zero) dollars to a maximum total in the aggregate of $600,000 which is non-recurring. These transactions are disclosed as related party transactions because the wife of an officer/director of Servotronics, Inc. is the sole shareholder of the company that is leasing/selling the assets. The Company considered the impact of the above transactions as if the acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of each of the fiscal periods presented and determined that the pro forma impact did not have a material effect on the Company’s revenues, net income or earnings per share.

Item 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
 
Management Discussion
 
 
During the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 approximately 39% and 56%, respectively and 43% and 52%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 respectively, of the Company’s revenues were derived from contracts with agencies of the U.S. Government or their prime contractors and their subcontractors. The Company believes that Government involvement in military operations overseas will continue to have an impact on the financial results in both the Advanced Technology and Consumer Product markets. While the Company is optimistic in relation to these potential 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 ATG revenue increased approximately $276,000 and $394,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same period in 2009. 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. This may adversely affect the Company’s sales revenues in 2010 and beyond. Although the ATG backlog continues to be significant, 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.
 

- 13 -
 
 

 
 
 
The Company’s CPG revenue decreased approximately $1,154,000 and $1,829,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same period in 2009 primarily due to decreased shipments under several significant government contracts. The 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 vagaries inherent in the government’s procurement process programs. Approximately 56% of the CPG’s revenues are derived from contracts with agencies of the U.S. Government or their prime contractors for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.
 
 
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. See also Note 12, Business Segments, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information concerning business segment operating results.

Sales
 
The Company’s consolidated sales decreased approximately $878,000 or 10.7% for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 and $1,435,000 or 5.8% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 when compared to the same three and nine month periods in 2009. Such results are due to decreased shipments at the CPG under several significant Government contracts partially off-set by increased shipments at the ATG for commercial applications. Procurement and time of shipments under Government contracts at the CPG significantly impact operating results from period to period.
 
Gross Profit
 
 
As shown in the preceding tables, gross profit decreased for the three month period and increased for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same three and nine month periods in 2009. The primary reason for the variations in gross profit was the mix of products sold 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 12, Business Segments.
 
 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
 
 
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses that include variable costs increased for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same nine month period in 2009 primarily due to an increase in employee compensation, and related expenses and customary expenses in support of its expanding product lines. The Company’s SG&A expenses can include general corporate, intellectual properties and asset acquisition related activity costs which include, among other things, the support for additional and new manufacturing capabilities which expanded the cutlery product line to include hot-forged edged products. As required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company expensed such costs in the period incurred. The trend is for SG&A expenses to increase as a function of increased government regulations, market expansion and company growth.
 
- 15 -
 
 

 

 
 
 
Interest Expense
 
 
Interest expense decreased for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same periods in 2009 due to the decrease in average outstanding debt and interest rates. See also Note 5, Long-Term Debt, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information on long-term debt.
 
 
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
 
 
Depreciation and amortization expense increased for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same periods in 2009. Depreciation expense fluctuates due to variable estimated useful lives of depreciable property (as identified in Note 2, 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. The increase is also due to 2010 being the first full year of depreciation expense related to the Capital Lease with Related Party for machinery and equipment. See Note 4, Property, Plant and Equipment. 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.

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 nine month period ended September 30, 2010 when compared to the same nine month period in 2009 is due to the decline in market driven interest rates on cash and cash equivalents.
 
 
Income Taxes
 
 
The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately 33.3% for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009. The effective tax rate reflects federal and 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 7, Income Taxes, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information concerning income tax.
 
 
Net Income
 
 
Net income for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 decreased $628,000 or 75.4% and $62,000 or 3.7% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 when compared to the same two periods ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in net income is primarily the result of decreased sales and profit margins at the CPG.
 
 
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 September 30, 2010, the Company had working capital of approximately $18,480,000 ($17,698,000–December 31, 2009) of which approximately $4,812,000 ($4,320,000– December 31, 2009) was comprised of cash and cash equivalents and certificates of deposit. The Company generated approximately $1,885,000 in cash from operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to using $260,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Cash was generated through net income and a decrease in inventory, prepaid income taxes and increase in accrued employee compensations costs aggregating $1,008,000. The primary use of cash for the Company’s operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 include increases in accounts receivable, decreases in accounts payable and payments on other accrued liabilities aggregating $1,053,000. Cash generated and used in operations is consistent with sales volume, customer expectations and competitive pressures.

The Company also expended $573,000 to purchase outstanding stock options and $312,000 for capital expenditures.
 
 
At September 30, 2010, there are no material commitments for capital expenditures.
 
 
The Company also has an unsecured $1,000,000 line of credit on which there is no balance outstanding at September 30, 2010. If needed, this can be used to fund cash flow requirements.

The success of the Company also depends upon the trends of the economy, including interest rates, income tax laws, governmental regulation, legislation, population changes and those risk factors discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
