Note 1. – Basis of Presentation of Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Video Display Corporation, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Video Display,” the “Company,” “we,” or “us”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 28, 2021 has been derived from audited financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of, and for the three and six months ended, August 31, 2021 and 2020 have been prepared in accordance with (i) accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for interim financial information and (ii) the instructions to Form

10-Q

and Rule

10-01

of Regulation

S-X

of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, such statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for a complete presentation of financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including those of a normal, recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended August 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending February 28, 2022. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Video Display’s Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the year ended February 28, 2021 filed with the SEC on May 28, 2021.

Note 2. – Going Concern, Banking & Liquidity

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company reported a net loss and a decrease in working capital and liquid assets for the six month period ending August 31, 2021 primarily due to a decrease in revenues in three of four divisions. The Company has sustained losses for the last three of five fiscal years and has seen overall a decline in working capital and liquid assets during this five year period due to a combination of decreasing revenues across certain divisions without a commensurate reduction of expenses. The Company’s working capital and liquid asset position are presented below (in thousands) as of August 31, 2021 and February 28, 2021:


	August 31, 2021		February 28, 2021
Working capital	$	2,166	$	3,601
Liquid assets	$	245	$	293

The Company has increased marketing efforts in its ruggedized displays, TEMPEST products and services and small specialty displays. In addition, the Company has streamlined its operations and is focusing on increasing revenues by executing initiatives such as upgrading its sales and marketing efforts including a more user friendly website, the hiring of an experienced Rugged Display Business Development Manager, increasing customer visits and trade shows post pandemic to market all the product lines it sells. The Company has expanded its cyber security business by adding an additional test chamber and test equipment to provide additional TEMPEST service capabilities and for qualifying TEMPEST products allowing it to increase the business in cyber testing services to supplement the product side of the business. The Company completed the transfer of the remaining CRT operations in Florida to its Lexel Imaging facility in Lexington, KY in order to make room for the new business in its Cocoa facility. This will also reduce expenses in the CRT operation by having that business all under one roof. The Company moved the corporate accounting functions to the Cocoa, Florida location which allows the Company to become more efficient and save money on reducing redundant operations. The plan is to further reduce expenses by closing the Tucker, Georgia facility as soon as the lease expires in March, 2022.

Video Display Corporation and Subsidiaries

August 31, 2021

In order to assist funding operating activity, the Company’s CEO loaned $250,000 to the Company during the second quarter of fiscal 2022. There are no repayment terms related to the loan; however, the Company plans to repay the note within the next twelve months and therefore has classified the loan as a current liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of August 31, 2021.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the success of management’s plans to improve revenues, the operational effectiveness of continuing operations, the procurement of suitable financing, or a combination of these. The uncertainty regarding the potential success of management’s plan create substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Note 3. – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU

2019-12, Income

Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU

2019-12”),

which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The new ASU also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates. These changes aim to improve the overall usefulness of disclosures to financial statement users and reduce unnecessary costs to companies when preparing the disclosures. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning on March 1, 2021 and prescribes different transition methods for the various provisions. Effective March 1, 2021, we adopted ASU

2019-12

with no material impact on the Company’s financial statements or related disclosures.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU

2016-13,

Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost, including trade receivables. ASU

2016-13

replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss model that requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022 for smaller reporting companies, with early adoption permitted. Entities will apply the amendments using a modified retrospective approach. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU

2016-13

to have a material impact on its financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 5. – Paycheck Protection Promissory (“PPP”) Related Loans

On April 13, 2020 our Lexel Imaging subsidiary entered into a Paycheck Protection Promissory Note (the “PPP Loan”) with the Central Bank for $216,200 and on January 27, 2021 entered into a second round PPP Loan for $304,442. On April 23, 2020, Video Display Corporation entered into a $772,000 first round PPP Loan with the Renasant Bank and on February 11, 2021, entered into a second round PPP Loan with Central Bank for $780,112. The PPP Loans were made under, and were subject to the terms and conditions of, the PPP which was established under the CARES Act and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. Under the terms of the CARES Act, recipients can apply for and receive forgiveness for all, or a portion of the loans granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for certain permissible purposes as set forth in the PPP, including, but not limited to, payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent or utility costs (collectively, “Qualifying Expenses”), and on the maintenance of employee and compensation levels during a certain time period following the funding of the PPP Loans.

The Company has used the proceeds of the PPP Loans for Qualifying Expenses. In fiscal 2021, the Company received forgiveness on the first round $216,200 Lexel Imaging PPP Loan in November 2020 and on the first round $772,000 Video Display PPP Loan in December 2020. The Company received forgiveness on the second round of PPP Loans with the Central Bank ($1,084,554 in aggregate) in August 2021. The forgiveness qualified as a gain on extinguishment of debt for the three and six months ended August 31, 2021 on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and the related liability was removed from the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of August 31, 2021.

Note 8. – Shareholders’ Equity

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings (loss) per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period.

Stock options, debentures, and other liabilities convertible into 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were anti-dilutive and, therefore, were excluded from the three months ended August 31, 2020 and for the six months ended August 31, 2021 and 2020 diluted loss per share calculations. For the three-month and six month periods ended August 31, 2021 and August 31, 2020, there was no expense related to share-based compensation as all options were fully vested. No options were granted for the six month period ending August 31, 2021 or for the six month period ended August 31, 2020.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and with the Company’s 2021 Annual Report to Shareholders, which included audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

The Company manufactures and distributes a wide range of display devices, encompassing, among others, industrial, military, medical, and simulation display solutions. The Company is comprised of one segment—the manufacturing and distribution of displays and display components. The Company is organized into four interrelated operations aggregated into one reportable segment.

•

Simulation and Training Products

– offers a wide range of projection display systems for use in training and simulation, military, medical, entertainment and industrial applications.

•

Cyber Secure Products –

offers advanced TEMPEST technology, and EMSEC products. This business also provides various contract services including the design and testing solutions for defense and niche commercial uses worldwide.

•

Data Display

CRTs–

offers a wide range of CRTs for use in data display screens, including computer terminal monitors and medical monitoring equipment.

•

Other Computer Products –

offers a variety of keyboard products.

During fiscal 2022, management of the Company is focusing key resources on strategic efforts to grow its business through internal sales of the Company’s more profitable product lines and reduce expenses in all areas of the business to bring its cost structure in line with the current size of the business. Challenges facing the Company during these efforts include:

Liquidity -

Liquid assets	$	245	$	293

August 31, 2021

allowing it to increase the business in cyber testing services to supplement the product side of the business. The Company completed the transfer of the remaining CRT operations in Florida to its Lexel Imaging facility in Lexington, KY in order to make room for the new business in its Cocoa facility. This will also reduce expenses in the CRT operation by having that business all under one roof. The Company moved the corporate accounting functions to the Cocoa, Florida location which allows the Company to become more efficient and save money on reducing redundant operations. The plan is to further reduce expenses by closing the Tucker, Georgia facility as soon as the lease expires in March, 2022.

Inventory management

– The Company’s business units utilize different inventory components than the divisions have in the past. The Company has a reserve at each of its divisions to offset any obsolescence although most purchases are for current orders, which should reduce the amount of obsolescence in the future. The Company still has CRT inventory in stock and component parts for legacy products, although it believes the inventory will be sold in the future, will continue to reserve for any additional obsolescence. Management believes its inventory reserves at August 31, 2021 and February 28, 2021 are adequate.

Impact of

COVID-19

– The Company has been actively monitoring the novel

coronavirus, or COVID-19, situation and

its impact globally. Financial results for the three months and six months ended August 31, 2021 and 2020 have been

impacted by COVID-19 due to

delayed orders and/or the fulfillment of the related orders. However, the Company currently does not expect any material impact on our financial results for the remainder of fiscal 2022. Management continues to operate normally with the exception of enabling employees to work from home and abiding by travel restrictions issued by federal and local governments.

If the COVID-19 pandemic continues,

the Company may experience other disruptions that could severely impact the business, results of operations and prospects.

Net sales

Consolidated net sales decreased 37.3% for the six months ended August 31, 2021, and decreased 16.9% for the three months ended August 31, 2021 compared to the six months and three months ended August 31, 2020. The Company’s AYON Cyber Security (ACS) division is down 61.7% for the six months ending August 31, 2021 compared to the six months last year. Their business decreased due to lack of product orders for the Department of the State and Canada. The Company is developing new products for customers in this area and expects to have them reviewed by customers by the end of this year. The Company’s service side of the cyber business (testing other company’s products for compliance) was their primary revenue source. For the three months ending August 31, 2021 ACS business decreased 36.3%. The Display Systems division was down 29.2% for the six months ended August 31, 2021 compared to the comparable period last year. 26.8% of the division’s business has been in the new specialized displays segment of the division. The other approximate two thirds has been mixed between different programs including ruggedized displays, simulation and video walls. For the three months ended August 31, 2021, the Display System division was down 6.1% compared to the same three months last year. The Company is focused on the ruggedized displays and simulation sectors of the business, having recently received an order for simulation and pursuing opportunities in both the ruggedized displays and simulation business. The Data Display division decreased 59.1% and 35.6% for the six months and three months ended August 31, 2021 due to decreases in the sales of a specialty product know as a DVST (Direct view storage tube) because of delays caused by

Covid-19.

The Data Display division is also seeing reduced sales for replacement CRTs for flight simulator customers due to the decrease in flights right now. The division expects to sell the DVST products for at least the next five to seven years. The Company’s keyboard division was up 20.1% for the six months ended August 31, 2021 and down 5.0% for three months ended August 31, 2021 respectively compared to the same periods last year. The Company acquired this company in October of 2017. This division is expected to continue at this level of sales each quarter.

Gross margins

Consolidated gross margins were decreased both as a percentage to sales (11.1% to 19.4%) and actual dollars ($418 thousand to $1,163 thousand) for the six months ended August 31, 2021 compared to the six months ended August 31, 2020.

VDC Display Systems gross margin dollars were $352 thousand compared to $798 thousand for the six months ended August 31, 2021 compared to the six months ended August 31, 2020. VDC Display Systems gross margin percentage also decreased from 27.1% to 16.9% for the six months ended August 31, 2021 compared to the same six months in 2020. AYON Cyber Security gross margin dollars were $217 thousand compared to $204 thousand for the six months ended August 31, 2021 compared to the six months ended August 31, 2020. AYON Cyber Security gross margin percentage increased to 41.4% from 14.9% for the six months ended August 31, 2021 compared to the same six month period in 2020 due to the sales mix of primarily service jobs as the material costs were lower.

The Data Display division had a negative gross margin of $392 thousand or a negative 87.1% compared to a negative gross margin of $69 thousand and a negative gross margin of 6.3% for the six months ended August 31, 2021 and August 31, 2020 respectively. The keyboard division, Unicomp, had $241 thousand of gross margin dollars or 34.3% to sales for the six months ending August 31, 2021 compared to $230 thousand or 39.4% for the six months ending August 31, 2020.

Video Display Corporation and Subsidiaries

August 31, 2021

For the three months ended August 31, 2021 compared to the same period last year, three of the four divisions reported lower gross margin dollars than last year. The cyber division did better than last year in gross margin dollars and gross margin percentage. The sales mix for the cyber division this year was primarily service versus products which requires no material costs and as last year the division completed a low margin product job. Overall gross margins for the quarter were down to the low sales volume.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses decreased 12% or $292 thousand for the six months ended August 31, 2021 compared to the six months ended August 31, 2020. The decrease was due primarily to the reduction of salaries and contractor expenses including commissions.

Operating expenses decreased by 19.0% or $240 thousand for the three months ended August 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended August 31, 2020. The decrease was due primarily to the decreased costs in selling expenses. The Company is focusing on reducing costs while increasing the sales effort. The Company expects to continue to control costs while increasing revenues in tempest services, specialized displays and ruggedized displays.

Interest income (expense), net

Interest expense was $14 thousand for the six months ended August 31, 2021 compared to $31 thousand for the six months ended August 31, 2020. Interest expense was $4 thousand for the three months ended August 31, 2021 compared to $16 thousand for the three months ended August 31, 2020. Interest expense in fiscal 2022 relates primarily to interest expense on the lease of TEMPEST equipment along with interest related to the PPP loans that were outstanding. Interest in fiscal 2021 primarily related to interest expense on notes owed to the CEO.

Other income (expense), net

For the six months ended August 31, 2021, the Company had $1.1 million in gains on the extinguishment of PPP loans, $107 thousand in rental income, and $4 thousand in debt recovery offset by $4 thousand in commissions on the rental income. For the six months ended August 31, 2020, the Company had $148 thousand in royalty income, $181 thousand in rental income, $6 thousand in discontinued scrap items, and $6 thousand in investment losses.

For the three months ended August 31, 2021, the Company had $1.1 million in gains on extinguishment of PPP loans, $56 thousand in rental income, $4 thousand in bad debt recovery, offset by $2 thousand in rental commissions. For the three months ended August 31, 2020 the Company had $91 thousand in rental income, $1 thousand in scrap items, and $4 thousand in investment gains.

Income taxes

Due to the Company’s overall and historical net loss position, no income tax has been reported and a full valuation allowance has been allocated to the deferred tax asset created by these losses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Video Display Corporation and Subsidiaries

August 31, 2021

three of five fiscal years and has seen overall a decline in working capital and liquid assets during this five year period due to a combination of decreasing revenues across certain divisions without a commensurate reduction of expenses. The Company’s working capital and liquid asset position are presented below (in thousands) as of August 31, 2021 and February 28, 2021:


	August 31, 2021		February 28, 2021
Working capital	$	2,166	$	3,601
Liquid assets	$	245	$	293

Management continues to implement plans to improve liquidity and to increase revenues at all divisions. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the success of management’s plans to improve revenues, the operational effectiveness of continuing operations, the procurement of suitable financing, or a combination of these. The uncertainty regarding the potential success of management’s plan create substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Cash used in operations for the six months ended August 31, 2021 was $0.2 million. Adjustments to net loss of $0.6 million were $0.2 million for depreciation and amortization offset by $0.1 million for a change in inventory reserves and $1.1 million related to gain recorded on the extinguishment of the remaining PPP loans. Changes in working capital provided $1.4 million, primarily $0.2 million from accounts receivable and $0.5 million from the change in contract assets, by $0.2 million change in accounts payable and $0.5 million in inventories. Cash used by operations for the six months ended August 31, 2020 was $1.5 million. Adjustments to net loss were $0.2 million

for non-cash depreciation

and amortization charges. Changes in working capital used $0.8 million, primarily due to a decrease in custom deposits of $1.0 million and an increase in contract assets by $0.2 million, offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $0.3 million and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of $0.2 million.

Investing activities used $47 thousand for the six months ended August 31, 2021 all related to capital asset expenditures compared to $54 thousand for the six months ended August 31, 2020 of which $31 thousand related to capital expenditures. In addition, for the six months ended August 31, 2020, $47 thousand in cash was used for trading security purchases offset with $24 thousand received from sale of investments. There has been no investing activity to date in fiscal 2022.

Financing activities provided $183 thousand for the six months ended August 31, 2021 compared to $1,500 thousand for the comparable period in the prior year. For the six months ended August 31, 2021, $250 thousand was provided resulting from borrowings from the CEO marginally offset by the repayment of notes and lease financing. For the six months ended August 31, 2020 cash was provided resulting from $1.0 million proceeds received from PPP Loans, $200 thousand borrowed from the CEO marginally offset by repayment of $35 thousand in related party loans.

The Company has a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which it has been authorized to repurchase up to 2,632,500 shares of the Company’s common stock in the open market. On January 20, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a

one-time

continuation of the stock repurchase program, and authorized the Company to repurchase up to 1,500,000 additional shares of the Company’s common stock on the open market, depending on the market price of the shares. There is no minimum number of shares required to be repurchased under the program.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based upon the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These principles require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. The accounting policies that may involve a higher degree of judgments, estimates, and complexity include reserves on inventories, revenue recognition, and the sufficiency of the valuation reserve related to deferred tax assets. The Company uses the following methods and assumptions in determining its estimates:

Reserves on Inventories

Reserves on inventories result in a charge to operations when the estimated net realizable value declines below cost. Management regularly reviews the Company’s investment in inventories for declines in value and establishes reserves when it is apparent that the expected net realizable value of the inventory falls below its carrying amount. Management reviews inventory levels on a quarterly basis. Such reviews include observations of product development trends of the original equipment manufacturers, new products being marketed, and technological advances relative to the product capabilities of the Company’s existing inventories. Management believes its inventory reserves at August 31, 2021 and February 28, 2021 are adequate.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when we transfer control of the promised products or services to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services. We derive our revenue primarily from sales of simulation and video wall systems, cyber secure products, data displays, and keyboards. We exclude sales and usage-based taxes from revenue.

Our simulation and video wall systems are custom-built (using commercial

off-the-shelf

products) to customer specifications under fixed price contracts. Judgment is required to determine whether each product and service is considered to be a distinct performance obligation that should be accounted for separately under the contract. Generally, these contracts contain one performance obligation (the installation of a fully functional system). We recognize revenue for these systems over time as control is transferred based on labor hours incurred on each project.

We recognize revenue related to our cyber secure products, data displays, and keyboards at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer (generally upon shipment of the product to the customer).

Timing of invoicing to customers may differ from timing of revenue recognition; however, our contracts do not include a significant financing component as substantially all of our invoices have terms of 30 days or less. We are applying the practical expedient to exclude from consideration any contracts with payment terms of one year or less and we never offer terms extending beyond one year.

Other Loss Contingencies

Other loss contingencies are recorded as liabilities when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. Disclosure is required when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will exceed the recorded provision. Contingent liabilities are often resolved over long time periods. Estimating probable losses requires analysis of multiple factors that often depend on judgments about potential actions by third parties.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. As of August 31, 2021, the Company has established a valuation allowance of $5.3 million on the Company’s deferred tax assets.

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions under the provisions of ASC 740, which contains a

two-step

approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating the Company’s tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments. At August 31, 2021, the Company did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax positions.
