NOTE

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include
all
of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,
all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary
for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month
period ended June 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the year ended March 31, 2009.
For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual report on form 10-KSB for the
year ended March 31, 2008.
Consolidation
On
February 24, 2006, TechPrecision acquired all stock of Ranor in a transaction
which is accounted for as a recapitalization (reverse acquisition), with Ranor
being treated as the acquiring company for accounting purposes.
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company as well as a variable interest entity. Intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Variable
Interest Entity
The
Company has consolidated WM Realty Management LLC (“WM Realty), a variable
interest entity that entered into a sale and leaseback contract with the Company
in 2006, to conform to FASB Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable
Interest Entities” (FIN 46). The Company has also adopted the revision to FIN
46, FIN 46R, which clarified certain provisions of the original interpretation
and exempted certain entities from its requirements.
7
Segment
Information
In
accordance with SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”
(SFAS
131), and based on the nature of the Company’s products, technology,
manufacturing processes, customers and regulatory environment, the Company
operates in one industry segment - metal fabrication and precision machining.
All of the Company’s operations, assets and customers are located in the United
States.
Use
of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
In
preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues
and
expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
New
Accounting Pronouncements
In
December 2007, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 141(R), “Business
Combinations” (“SFAS
141(R)”). SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how
an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest
in
the acquiree and recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business
combination or a gain from a bargain purchase. SFAS No. 141(R) also sets
forth the disclosures required to be made in the financial statements to
evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS
No. 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2008. The effects of the adoption of this standard in 2009 will be prospective.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 160, “Non-controlling
Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB
No. 51”
(“SFAS
No. 160”). SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards
that require that the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other
than the parent be clearly identified, labeled, and presented in the
consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from
the parent’s equity; the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the
parent and to the non-controlling interest be clearly identified and presented
on the face of the consolidated statement of income; and changes in a parent’s
ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest
in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently. SFAS No. 160 also requires
that any retained non-controlling equity investment in the former subsidiary
be
initially measured at fair value when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS
No. 160 also sets forth the disclosure requirements to identify and
distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the
non-controlling owners. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company has not yet determined the
anticipated effect, if any, of the adoption of this standard in 2009.
In
March
2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 161, "Disclosures
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"
("SFAS
161"). SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about an entity's derivative
and
hedging activities and is effective for fiscal years and interim periods
beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. We do
not
expect the adoption of SFAS 161 to have a material effect on our consolidated
financial statements.
In
April 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 142-3, “Determination
of Useful Life of Intangible Assets”
(“FSP
FAS 142-3”). FSP FAS 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in
developing the renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful
life of a recognized intangible asset under FAS 142, “Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets.” FSP FAS 142-3 also requires expanded disclosure related to
the determination of intangible asset useful lives. FSP FAS 142-3 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is not
permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this FSP to have a material effect
on our consolidated financial statements.
8
In
May
2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. APB 14-1, "Accounting
for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion
(Including Partial Cash Settlement)"
(the
"FSP"), which clarifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments that
may
be settled in cash (including partial cash settlement) upon conversion. The
FSP
requires issuers to account separately for the liability and equity components
of certain convertible debt instruments in a manner that reflects the issuer's
nonconvertible debt (unsecured debt) borrowing rate when interest cost is
recognized. The FSP requires bifurcation of a component of the debt,
classification of that component in equity and the accretion of the resulting
discount on the debt to be recognized as part of interest expense in our
consolidated statement of operations. The FSP requires retrospective application
to the terms of instruments as they existed for all periods presented. This
FSP
is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not
expect the adoption of this FSP to have a material effect on our consolidated
financial statements.
In
May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.”
This
Statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework
for
selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements
of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with GAAP in the
United States (the GAAP hierarchy). This Statement will not have any impact
on
the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In
May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting
for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts, an interpretation of FASB Statement
No. 60.”
The
scope of this Statement is limited to financial guarantee insurance (and
reinsurance) contracts, as described in this Statement, issued by enterprises
included within the scope of Statement 60. Accordingly, this Statement does
not
apply to financial guarantee contracts issued by enterprises excluded from
the
scope of Statement 60 or to some insurance contracts that seem similar to
financial guarantee insurance contracts issued by insurance enterprises (such
as
mortgage guaranty insurance or credit insurance on trade receivables). This
Statement also does not apply to financial guarantee insurance contracts that
are derivative instruments included within the scope of FASB Statement No.
133,
“Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” This Statement
will not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.
In
June
2008, the FASB issued Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 07-5 “Determining
whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own
Stock”
(“EITF
No. 07-5”). This Issue is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal
years. Early application is not permitted. Paragraph 11(a) of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No 133 “Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging
Activities” (“SFAS 133”) specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the
definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the Company’s own
stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of
financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument.
EITF No.07-5 provides a new two-step model to be applied in determining whether
a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own
stock and thus able to qualify for the SFAS 133 paragraph 11(a) scope exception.
Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of EITF No. 07-5
on
the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In
June
2008, FASB issued EITF Issue No. 08-4, “Transition
Guidance for Conforming Changes to Issue No. 98-5 (“EITF No.
08-4”)”. The
objective of EITF No.08-4 is to provide transition guidance for conforming

In
June
2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on EITF Issue
No. 07-3, “Accounting
for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received to Be Used
in
Future Research and Development Activities”
(“EITF
No. 07-3”). EITF No. 07-3 requires companies that are involved in research and
development activities to defer nonrefundable advance payments for future
research and development activities and to recognize those payments as goods
and
services are delivered. The Company will be required to assess on an ongoing
basis whether or not the goods or services will be delivered and to expense
the
nonrefundable advance payments immediately if it is determined that delivery
is
unlikely. EITF No. 07-3 is effective for new arrangements entered into
subsequent to the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year 2009. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of EITF No. 07-3 will have,
but does not believe it will be material to the consolidated financial position
or results of operations.

COSTS INCURRED ON UNCOMPLETED CONTRACTS
The
Company recognizes revenues based upon the units-of-delivery method. The
advance billing and deposits include down payments for acquisition of materials
and progress payments on contracts. The agreements with the buyers of the
Company’s products allow the Company to offset the progress payments against the
costs incurred. The following table sets forth information as to costs
incurred on uncompleted contracts at June 30, 2008 and March 31,

On
February 24, 2006, Ranor entered into a loan and security agreement with
Sovereign Bank. Pursuant to the agreement, the bank has granted Ranor a term
loan of $4,000,000 (“Term Note”) and extended Ranor a line of credit of
$1,000,000, with an initial interest rate of 9%. In February 2007, Ranor entered
into an amendment to the agreement with the bank which (i) reduced the interest
rate from prime plus 1½% to prime plus 1% and increased the revolving credit
line of $2,000,000 (“Revolving Note’) and (ii) provided for Ranor to borrow up
to $500,000 at in order to finance capital expenditures. Under this capital
expenditures facility, Ranor was able to borrow up to $500,000 until the
February 1, 2008. On November 30, 2007, Ranor and the bank entered into second
amendment to the loan agreement pursuant to which the capital expenditure line
was increased to $3,000,000, which is available to Ranor until November 30,
2008. Any borrowings under the capital expenditures line are amortized over
five
years, commencing December 1, 2008. The interest on the capital expenditure
loans is equal to the prime plus ½% per annum through November 30, 2008. After
November 2008, the interest is charged on the outstanding balance of the capital
expenditures loan at the annual rate that the bank offers to pay for its
wholesale liabilities, adjusted for reserve requirement, plus 2.25% (“Cost of
Fund Rate”.) As of June 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008, there were no borrowings
outstanding under either the revolving line or the capital expenditure line.
Any
outstanding principal or accrued interest has to be paid off on or before
November 2013, the maturity date.
11
The
Term
Note is subject to various covenants that include the following: the loan
collateral comprises all personal property of Ranor, including cash, accounts
receivable, inventories, equipment, financial and intangible assets owned when
the loan is contracted or acquired thereafter; the amount of loan outstanding
at
all times is limited to a borrowing base amount of the Ranor’s qualified
accounts receivable and inventory; there are prepayment penalties of 3%, 2%
and
1% of the outstanding principal, in the first, second and third years following
the issuance date, respectively. There is no prepayment penalty thereafter.
Ranor is prohibited from issuing any additional equity interest (except to
existing holders), or redeem, retire, purchase or otherwise acquire for value
any equity interests; Ranor pays an unused credit line fee of 0.25% of the
average unused credit line amount in previous month; the earnings available
to
cover fixed charges are required not to be less than 120% of fixed charges
for
the rolling four quarters, tested at the end of each fiscal quarter; and
interest coverage ratio is required to be not less than 2:1 at the end of each
fiscal quarter. Ranor’s obligations under the notes to the bank are guaranteed
by TechPrecision.
In
connection with the Amalgamated Bank mortgage financing of the real estate
owned
by WM Realty Management LLC, Mr. Andrew Levy, the principal equity owner and
manager of WM Realty and a major stockholder of TechPrecision, executed a
limited guarantee. Pursuant to the limited guaranty, Mr. Levy guaranteed the
lender the payment of any loss resulting from WM realty’s fraud or
misrepresentation in connection with the loan documents, misapplication of
rent
and insurance proceeds, failure to pay taxes and other defaults resulting from
his or WM Realty Management’s misconduct.

CAPITAL STOCK
The
Company had 13,685,995 shares of common stock outstanding at June 30, 2008
and
12,572,995 shares of common stock outstanding at March 31, 2008.
The
Company had 6,484,971 and 7,018,064 shares of series A preferred stock
outstanding at June 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008. Each share of preferred stock
is convertible into 1.3072 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment. During
the three months ended June 30, 2008, 553,093 shares of series A preferred
stock
were converted into 723,000 shares of common stock.
Common
Stock Purchase Warrants
In
February 2006, we sold to the investor, for $2,200,000, (a) 7,719,250 shares
of
series A convertible preferred stock and (b) warrants to purchase 11,220,000
shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable, in part or full, at any
time from February 24, 2006 until February 24, 2011.
If,
during the period ending February 24, 2009, the Company issues common stock
at a
price, or options, warrants or other convertible securities with a conversion
or
exercise price less than the applicable exercise prices, with certain specified
exceptions, the exercise price of the warrants is reduced to reflect an exercise
price equal to the lower price. This adjustment does not affect the number
of
shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants.
12
During
the three months ended June 30, 2008, we issued 390,000 shares of common stock
upon exercise of warrants having an exercise price of $.43605 and a cost of
$11,700. The Company had estimated the costs of warrants at $.03 per warrant
using Black Scholes model, at the time of issuance. The assumptions were market
price of $.28, risk free rate of 5% and volatility of 28%. The number of
warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2008 is 9,320,000. In addition, at June
30,
2008 and March 31, 2008 warrants to purchase 112,500 shares of common stock
were
outstanding under our 2006 long-term incentive plan. These warrants were issued
to an investor relations firm in the year ended March 31, 2008.
Stock
options
During
the three months ended June 30, 2008, no stock options were granted and no
stock
options were exercised. As of June 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008, stock options
to
purchase 371,659 shares of common stock were outstanding under the 2006
long-term incentive plan.
NOTE

EARNINGS PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK
Basic
net
income per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income or loss
by
the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted
net
income per share of common stock is calculated using net income divided by
diluted weighted-average shares. Diluted weighted-average shares include
weighted-average shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of convertible
preferred stock, preferred shareholders and other warrants and share-based
compensation were calculated using the treasury stock method.

INCOME TAXES
The
Company uses the asset and liability method of financial accounting and
reporting for income taxes required by statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109 (“FAS 109”), “Accounting
for Income Taxes.”
Under
FAS 109, deferred income taxes reflect the tax impact of temporary differences
between the amount of assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts recognized for tax purposes. Temporary differences
giving rise to deferred income taxes consist primarily of the reporting of
losses on uncompleted contracts, the excess of depreciation for tax purposes
over the amount for financial reporting purposes, and accrued expenses accounted
for differently for financial reporting and tax purposes and net operating
loss
carry forwards.
13
During
the quarter of ended June 30, 2008, an evaluation of recent historical
profitability and growth in the last two quarters of the year ended March 31,
2008 and an increase in current and projected market demand and future customer
production schedules for the coming year led us to significantly revise the
near-term projected future operating results of our operations.
We
reviewed the likelihood that we would be able to realize the benefit of our
U.S.
deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2008, based on the revised near-term
projected future operating results. We concluded that it is “more
likely than not” that we will realize our short term net deferred tax assets and
thus recorded an income tax benefit in the first quarter of 2008 of $90,772
to
establish a provision for these assets.
If,
in
the future, we do not generate taxable income in the U.S. on a sustained basis,
our current estimate of the recoverability of our deferred tax assets could
change and result in the increase of the valuation allowance.
Income
tax expense was $1,064,250 in the three months ended June 30, 2008 as compared
to $397,005 in the three months ended June 30, 2007. The Company’s
effective income tax rate was 40% in the first quarter of 2008 as compared
to
37% in the first quarter of 2007. The increase is a
result of increased profitability in the second half of last year and positive
earnings estimates for the current period. The effective tax rate in the first
quarter of 2008 includes the recognition of a net deferred tax asset of $90,722.
This deferred tax asset reflects the impact of recording an income tax benefit
for the current portion of net operating loss carry forwards subject to Internal
Revenue Code Section 382 and related state statutory limitations in the amount
of $39,454 and an income tax benefit of $133,804 related to accrued compensation
benefits. The deferred tax asset reflected on the balance sheet is net of the
current portion deferred tax liability arising from timing differences in
depreciation in the amount of $82,486.
NOTE

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND MAJOR CUSTOMERS
The
Company maintains bank account balances, which, at times, may exceed insured
limits. The Company has not experienced any losses with these accounts and
believes that it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.
The
Company has been dependent in each year on a small number of customers who
generate a significant portion of our business, and these customers change
from
year to year. To the extent that the Company is unable to generate orders from
new customers, it may have difficulty operating profitably.
The
following table sets forth information as to revenue derived from those
customers who accounted for more than 10% of our revenue in the three months
ended June 30, 2008 and 2007:

COMMITMENT AND CONTINGENCIES
Leases
Ranor,
Inc. has leased its manufacturing, warehouse and office facilities in
Westminster (Westminster Lease), Massachusetts from WM Realty,
a
variable interest entity, for a term of 15 years, commencing February 24, 2006.
For the quarters ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company’s rent expenses were
$112,500 and $109,625, respectively. Since the Company consolidated the
operations of WM Realty pursuant to FIN 46, the rental expense is eliminated
in
consolidation, the building is carried at cost and depreciation is expensed.
The
annual rent is subject to an annual increase based on the increase in the
consumer price index.
The
Company has an option to purchase the real property at fair value and an option
to extend the term of the lease for two additional terms of five years, upon
the
same terms. The minimum rent payable for each option term will be the greater
of
(i) the minimum rent payable under the lease immediately prior to either the
expiration date, or the expiration of the preceding option term, or (ii) the
fair market rent for the leased premises.
The
Company also has leased approximately 12,720 square feet of
manufacturing space
in
Fitchburg, Massachusetts (“Fitchburg Lease”) from an unaffiliated lessor. The
lease provides for rent at the annual rate of $50,112 with 3% annual increases,
starting 2004. The lease expires in February 2009, and is renewable for a five
year term. The company’s rent expense for this facility was $12,528 for the
three months ended June 30, 2008. The Company has the option to purchase the
property at the appraised market value.
The
minimum future lease payments under the Company’s real property leases are as

Item
2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.
Statement
Regarding Forward Looking Disclosure
The
following discussion of the results of our operations and financial condition
should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related
notes, which appear elsewhere. This quarterly report of on Form 10-Q, including
this section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations,” may contain predictive or “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements
that express our intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions
or
any other statements relating to our future activities or other future events
or
conditions. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and
projections about our business based in part on assumptions made by management.
These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks,
uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual
outcomes and results may, and probably will, differ materially from what is
expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to numerous
factors. Those factors include those risks discussed under “Risk Factors” in
Item 1 and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” in our Form 10-KSB for the
year ended March 31, 2008 and this Item 2 in this Form 10-Q and those described
in any other filings which we make with the SEC. In addition, such statements
could be affected by risks and uncertainties related to economic downturn in
the
U.S. and global economies, to our ability to generate business on an on-going
business, to obtain any required financing, to receive contract awards from
the
competitive bidding process, maintain standards to enable us to manufacture
products to exacting specifications, enter new markets for our services, market
and customer acceptance, our reliance on a small number of customers for a
significant percentage of our business, competition, government regulations
and
requirements, pricing and development difficulties, our ability to make
acquisitions and successfully integrate those acquisitions with our business,
as
well as general industry and market conditions and growth rates, and general
economic conditions. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise
any
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that may arise
after the date of this report, except as required by applicable
law.
Any
forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made,
and
we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement
to
reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report. Investors should
evaluate any statements made by the Company in light of these important
factors.
Overview
We
offer
a full range of services required to transform raw material into precise
finished products. Our manufacturing capabilities include: fabrication
operations - cutting, press and roll forming, assembly, welding, heat treating,
blasting and painting; and machining operations – CNC (computer numerical
controlled) horizontal and vertical milling centers. We also provide support
services to our manufacturing capabilities: manufacturing engineering (planning,
fixture and tooling development, manufacturability), quality control (inspection
and testing), and production control (scheduling, project management and
expediting).
All
manufacturing is done in accordance with our written quality assurance program,
which meets specific national and international codes, standards, and
specifications. Ranor holds several certificates of authorization issued by
the
American Society of Mechanical Engineers and the National Board of Boiler and
Pressure Vessel Inspectors. The standards used are specific to the customer’s
needs, and we have implemented such standards into our manufacturing
operations.
In
recent
years, the capital goods market experienced a slow down due to industry over
build of product in the late 1990’s coupled together with the events of
September 11, 2001. However, over the last several years, and based on recent
project inquiries, recent projects awarded and current customer demands for
our
services and our backlog, we believe the market has rebounded.
However,
we would be affected by recessionary pressures to the extent that they affect
the requirements of our customers.
16
A
significant portion of our revenue is generated by a small number of
customers.
For the
three months ended June 30, 2008, GT Solar accounted for 69% of our sales and
BAE Systems accounted for 13% of our sales.
Our
contracts are generated both through negotiation with the customer and from
bids
made pursuant to a request for proposal. Our ability to receive contract awards
is dependent upon the contracting party’s perception of such factors as our
ability to perform on time, our history of performance and our financial
condition. We believe, based on increased requests for quotations, that there
is
an increasing demand for services of the type which we perform. We have changed
the manner in which we treat potential business. In the past, our contracts
generally called for one or a limited number of units, and once we complete
our
work on a contract, we generally do not receive subsequent orders for the same
product. Although some of our contracts contemplate the manufacture of one
or a
limited number of units, we have are seeking more long-term projects with a
more
predictable cost structure, and we are rejecting or not bidding on projects
we
do not believe would generate an adequate gross margin. As a result of the
implementation of this strategy, in the quarter ended June 30, 2008, our sales
and net income were $11,658,134 and $1,571,696 respectively, as compared to
revenues of $6,553,112 and a net income of $684,827, respectively, for the
corresponding period of the previous fiscal year. Our gross margin for the
three
month period ended June 30, 2008 was 29% as compared to 26% in the quarter
ended
June 30, 2007.
Because
our revenues are derived from the sale of goods manufactured pursuant to
contracts and we do not sell from inventory, it is necessary for us to
constantly seek new contracts. We are also seeking to market our manufacturing
services to other customers in order to lessen our dependence on one or two
major customers. There may be a time lag between our completion of one contract
and commencement of work on another contract. During this period, we will
continue to incur our overhead expense but with lower revenue. Furthermore,
changes in the scope of a contract may impact the revenue we receive under
the
contract and the allocation of manpower.
Although
we provide manufacturing services for large governmental programs, we usually
do
not work directly for agencies of the United States government. Rather, we
perform our services for large governmental contractors and large utility
companies. However, our business is dependent in part on the continuation of
governmental programs which require the services we provide.
Growth
Strategy
Our
strategy is to leverage our core competence as a manufacturer of high-precision,
large metal fabrications to expand our business into areas which have shown
increasing demand and which we believe could generate higher
margins.
We
believe that rising energy demands along with increasing environmental concerns
are likely to continue to drive demand in the alternative energy industry,
particularly the solar and nuclear power industries. Because of our capabilities
and the nature of the equipment required by companies in the alternative energy
industries, we intend to focus our services in this sector.
As
a
result of both the increased prices of oil and gas and the resulting greenhouse
gas emissions, nuclear power may become an increasingly important source of
energy. Because we have certification from the American Society of Mechanical
Engineers, along with our historic relationships with suppliers in the industry,
we believe that we have the qualifications to benefit from any increased
activity in the nuclear sector that may result. One of our customers is
currently involved in a variety of commercial nuclear reactor repairs and
overhaul projects. We have manufactured several components needed to support
this work. Another customer provides a complete nuclear waste storage system
to
commercial nuclear power plants. We manufacture lifting equipment for this
company to use in these storage systems. We also see the fabrication of medical
isotopes storage systems as a potential business area. However, revenues derived
from the nuclear industry were insignificant for the quarter ended June 30,
2008
and do not constitute a significant portion of our backlog at March 31, 2009.
We
cannot assure you that we will be able to develop any significant business
from
the nuclear industry.
17
As
an
example of our plan for diversification, we are currently working with a medical
customer to manufacture critical components for proton beam therapy machines
designed to be used to treat cancer.
We
plan
to expand our current manufacturing facilities in the near-term both at our
present locations and in other locations. We believe that this expansion will
allow us to increase our overall industry offerings and capacity, allowing
us to
handle high volume orders or niche orders simultaneously. However, this
expansion will require financing which may not be available on acceptable terms,
if any.
We
plan
to offer more integrated products and turnkey solutions to provide greater
value
to our customers. We may target acquisitions that could enhance our existing
business, although we are not engaged in any discussions or negotiations with
respect to any acquisition.
As
of
June 30, 2008, we had a backlog of firm orders totaling approximately $52.8
million. We anticipate that a significant amount of this backlog will be
shipped during the year ended March 31, 2009 and the remainder in the year
ended
March 31, 2010. The
backlog includes orders for more than $1.0 million from four customers in
addition to GT Solar, which accounts for approximately 80% of our backlog.
Critical
Accounting Policies
The
preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States requires our management
to
make assumptions, estimates and judgments that effect the amounts reported
in
the financial statements, including all notes thereto, and related disclosures
of commitments and contingencies, if any. We rely on historical experience
and
other assumptions we believe to be reasonable in making our estimates. Actual
financial results of the operations could differ materially from such estimates.
There have been no significant changes in the assumptions, estimates and
judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements for the quarter
ended June 30, 2008 from the assumptions, estimates and judgments used in the
preparation of our audited financial statements, for the year ended March 31,
2008.
Revenue
Recognition and Costs Incurred
We
derive
revenues from (i) the fabrication of large metal components for our customers;
(ii) the precision machining of such large metal components, including
incidental engineering services; and (iii) the installation of such components
at the customers’ locations when the scope of the project requires such
installations.
Revenue
and costs are recognized on the units of delivery method. This method recognizes
as revenue the contract price of units of the product delivered during each
period and the costs allocable to the delivered units as the cost of earned
revenue. When the sales agreements provide for separate billing of engineering
services, the revenues for those services are recognized when the services
are
completed. Costs allocable to undelivered units are reported in the balance
sheet as costs incurred on uncompleted contracts. Amounts in excess of agreed
upon contract price for customer directed changes, constructive changes,
customer delays or other causes of additional contract costs are recognized
in
contract value if it is probable that a claim for such amounts will result
in
additional revenue and the amounts can be reasonably estimated. Revisions in
cost and profit estimates are reflected in the period in which the facts
requiring the revision become known and are estimable. The unit of delivery
method requires the existence of a contract to provide the persuasive evidence
of an arrangement and determinable seller’s price, delivery of the product
and reasonable collection prospects. The Company has written agreements with
the
customers that specify contract prices and delivery terms. The Company
recognizes revenues only when the collection prospects are reasonable.
Adjustments
to cost estimates are made periodically, and losses expected to be incurred
on
contracts in progress are charged to operations in the period such losses are
determined and are reflected as reductions of the carrying value of the costs
incurred on uncompleted contracts. Costs incurred on uncompleted contracts
consist of labor, overhead, and materials. Work in process is stated at the
lower of cost or market and reflects accrued losses, if required, on uncompleted
contracts.
18
Variable
Interest Entity
We
have
consolidated WM Realty Management, a variable interest entity from which we
lease our real estate, to conform to FASB Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation
of Variable Interest Entities”
(FIN
46). We have also adopted the revision to FIN 46, FIN 46 (R), which clarified
certain provisions of the original interpretation and exempted certain entities
from its requirements.
Income
Taxes
We
provide for federal and state income taxes currently payable, as well as those
deferred because of temporary differences between reporting income and expenses
for financial statement purposes versus tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to
differences between carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to
apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recoverable. The effect of the change in the tax rates is
recognized as income or expense in the period of the change. A valuation
allowance is established, when necessary, to reduce deferred income taxes to
the
amount that is more likely than not to be realized. As a result of the change
in
ownership resulting for the acquisition of Ranor in February 2006, our annual
usage of the tax benefit of the tax loss-carry forward pursuant to Section
382
of the Internal Revenue Code and the treasury regulations is limited to
approximately $39,455.

Sales
increased by $5,105, or 77.9%, from $6,553 for the quarter ended June 30, 2007
(the “June 2007 Quarter”) to $11,658 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 (the
“June 2008 Quarter”). The increase in sales resulted from an increase of $5,510,
or 217%, in sales to GT Solar from $2,536 in the June 2007 Quarter to $8,046
in
the June 2008 Quarter. Because of the work we performed for GT Solar, our sales
to other customers declined slightly from the June 2007 Quarter to the June
2008
Quarter.
Our
cost
of sales for the June 2008 Quarter increased by $3,401 to $8,278, an increase
of
69.7%, from $4,877 for quarter ended June 30, 2007. The increase in cost of
sales reflected the increase in sales and gross margin, with the result that
our
gross margin increased from 25.6% to 29.0%. With our marketing efforts focused
on long range contracts with more predictable cost structures and avoiding
projects that we believe are not likely to generate an adequate margin we were
able to significantly improve our gross margin. More efficient manufacturing
procedures additionally contributed to our increased profitability.
20
Our
payroll and related costs were $435 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 as
compared to $344 for the quarter ended June 30, 2007. The $91 (26.5%) increase
in payroll was partly attributable to the increased sales and related
compensation of as well as bonuses to our senior executive officers and the
chief executive officer of Ranor of $88 for the year ended March 31, 2008 which
were awarded during the June 2008 Quarter.
Professional
fees remained relatively constant, increasing from $44 for the June 2007 Quarter
to $47 for
the
June 2008 Quarter.
Selling,
administrative and other expenses for the June 2008 Quarter $139 as compared
to
$71 for June 2007 Quarter, an increase of $68 or 95.8%. This increase reflected
in part additional costs which we incurred when our stock became publicly traded
in November 2007, as well as additional expense incurred as a result of the
overall increase in our business.
Interest
expense for the June 2008 Quarter was $119 as compared to $132 for the June
2007
Quarter. The reduction of $14 (10.3%) is a result of the repayment of the
principal and decrease in the amount of the long-term debt of
Ranor.
Income
tax expense was $1,064 in the June 2008 Quarter as compared to $397 in the
June
2007 Quarter. Our effective income tax rate was 40% in the June 2008
Quarter as compared to 37% in the June 2007 Quarter. The
increase is a result of increased profitability in the second half of last
year
and positive earnings estimates for the current period. The effective tax rate
in the June 2008 Quarter includes the recognition of a net deferred tax asset
of
$91. This deferred tax asset reflects the impact of recording an income tax
benefit for the current portion of net operating loss carry forwards subject
to
Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and related state statutory limitations in
the
amount of $39 and an income tax benefit of $134 related to accrued compensation
benefits. The deferred tax asset reflected on the balance sheet is net of the
current portion deferred tax liability arising from timing differences in
depreciation in the amount of $82.
As
a
result of the foregoing, our net income was $1,572 ($ 0.12 per share basic
and
$0.06 per share diluted) for the June 2008 Quarter, as compared to $685 ($0.07
per share basic and $0.04 per share diluted) for June 2007 Quarter as result
of
the factors described above.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
At
June
30, 2008, we had net working capital of $7,796 as compared with $6,392, at
March
31, 2008. The increase of $1,404 (22%) reflects the increased level and
profitability of our business. The following table sets forth information as
to
the principal changes in the components of our working capital.

The
cash
flow from operations was $1,225 for the June 2008 Quarter as compared to $44
in
June 2007 Quarter. The increase of in cash flows from operations of $1,181
or
2687% was the net effect of an increase in the net profits and decrease in
costs
incurred on uncompleted contracts. The net cash used in financing activities
was
$30 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 as compared to outflow of $193 for
the
quarter ended June 30, 2007. The $143 principal payment of the Sovereign bank
notes and $2 auto loans were more than offset by $170 of cash received from
the
exercise of warrants. In addition, since our financial statements include the
operations of WM Realty, our cash flows include the cash flows of WM Realty.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2008, WM Realty made mortgage principal
reduction payments totaling $9, and made net distributions of $47 to its
members.
We
invested $124 and $63 in property plant and equipment during the quarters ended
June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. We made a deposit of $150 with
manufacturers to acquire additional equipment in 2008.
As
a
result of cash flows from operations, our cash balance increased by $921 (32.3%)
from $2,853 on March 31, 2008 to $3,774, on June 30, 2008.
As
part
of the October 2006 refinancing of the mortgage given by WM Realty on the
property leased by us, a new mortgage of $3,200 was placed on the property
and
the existing mortgage of $3,100 was paid off. The new mortgage has a term of
ten
years, bears interest at 6.75% per annum, and provides for monthly payments
of
principal and interest of $21,000. The monthly payments are based on a
thirty-year amortization schedule, with the unpaid principal being due in full
on November 1, 2016. WM Realty has the right to prepay the mortgage note upon
payment of a prepayment premium of 5% of the amount prepaid if the prepayment
is
made during the first two years, and declining to 1% of the amount prepaid
if
the prepayment is made during the ninth or tenth year.
During
the June 2008 Quarter, WM Realty had a net income of $33. The accumulated
deficit of WM Realty was $163, as of June 30, 2008. During the quarter ended
June 30, 2008, WM Realty made net capital distributions of $47 to its
members.
22
We
have a
loan and security agreement with Sovereign Bank, pursuant to which we borrowed
$4.0 million on a term loan basis in connection with the acquisition of Ranor.
As a result of amendments to the loan and security agreement, we have a $2.0
million revolving credit facility and a $3.0 million capital expenditure
facility, which is available to us until November 30, 2009, at which time any
amounts borrowed under the line are to be amortized over a five year period.
Pursuant to the agreement, Ranor is required to maintain a ratio of earnings
available for fixed charges to fixed charges of at least 1.2 to 1, and an
interest coverage ratio of at least 2:1.
The
term
note is due on March 1, 2013, and is payable in quarterly installments of $143.
The note bears interest at 9% per annum through December 31, 2010 and at prime
plus 1½% thereafter. At June 30, 2008 the principal balance due on our term loan
to Sovereign Bank was approximately $2,714. The revolving note bears interest
at
prime plus ½%, and we have the right to borrow at a LIBOR rate plus 300 basis
points. We may borrow, subject to the borrowing formula at any time prior to
June 30, 2009. Any advances under the revolving note become due on June 30,
2009. The maximum borrowing under the revolving note is the lesser of (i) $2.0
million or (ii) the sum of 70% of eligible accounts receivable and 40% of
eligible inventory. At June 30, 2008, there were no borrowings under the line
and maximum available under the borrowing formula was $2.0 million.
Under
our
capital expenditures facility, we may borrow up to $3.0 million with interest
at
prime plus ½%, with interest
only
payable until November 30, 2008 and thereafter at the bank’s cost of funds rate
related to its wholesale liabilities. The principal is to be amortized over
a
five-year term commencing December 1, 2008. As of June 30, 2008, we had not
borrowed any money under this facility.
The
securities purchase agreement pursuant to which we sold the series A preferred
stock and warrants to Barron Partners provides Barron Partners with a right
of
first refusal on future equity financings, which may affect our ability to
raise
funds from other sources if the need arises.
While
we
believe that the $2.0 million revolving credit facility, which remained unused
as of June 30, 2008 and terminates in June 2009, our $3.0 million capital
expenditure facility and our cash flow from operations should be sufficient
to
enable us to satisfy our cash requirements at least through the end of fiscal
2009, it is possible that we may require additional funds to the extent that
we
expand our facilities. In the event that we make an acquisition, we may require
additional financing for the acquisition. However, we do not have any current
plans for any acquisition, and we cannot give any assurance that we will make
any acquisition. We have no commitment from any party for additional funds;
however, the terms of our agreement with Barron Partners, particularly Barron
Partners’ right of first refusal, may impair our ability to raise capital in the
equity markets since potential investors are often reluctant to negotiate a
financing when another party has a right to match the terms of the
financing.
On
December 7, 2007, Ranor acquired all the equipment Vertex Tool and Die, Inc
for
$150,000 and assumed Vertex’s real property lease obligation. The current lease
expires on February 28, 2009, and Ranor has the option to extend the lease
for
an additional term of five years. We have the option to purchase the leased
property at market price.
We
contemplate that we will expand our business during the next twelve months.
Although we may use the bank facilities for this purpose, we may require
additional financing as well. We can give no assurance that the necessary
financing will be available.
ITEM
4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As
of
June 30, 2008, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with
the
participation of management, including our chief executive officer and chief
financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)).
23
Based
upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of
June
30, 2008, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the
reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and
Exchange Commission rules and forms.
Changes
in Internal Controls
There
was
no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in
Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that
occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2008 that has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control
over
financial reporting.
