NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE:
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of common shares and, when applicable,
common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 3 - CASH FLOW STATEMENT:
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual interest paid was $65,000 and $160,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. In addition,
actual income taxes paid were $627,000 and $84,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 4 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD:
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earning Per
Share," which is effective for financial statements for both
interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. This
new standard requires dual presentation of basic and diluted
earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the earnings statement and
requires a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of
basic and diluted EPS calculations. The Company's current EPS
calculation conforms to basic EPS. Diluted EPS will not be
materially different from basic EPS since potential common shares
in the form of stock options are not materially dilutive.
GRAHAM CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
March 31, 1997
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Sales increased 23% in the first quarter 1997 compared to 1996.
Sales increased 25% in the United States while sales in the United
Kingdom remained flat. The product lines that attributed
substantially to the sales increase were surface condensers,
ejectors and vacuum pumps.
Cost of products sold was 71% of sales for the first quarter of
1997 compared to 72% for the same period in 1996. The percentages
reflect a decline in direct costs as a percentage of selling prices
offset by a slight increase in production overheads due to
increased sales levels. Cost of products sold in the United States
was 73% of sales in both the first quarter of 1997 and 1996, and
cost of products sold in the United Kingdom also remained the same
for both periods at 60% of sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 20% from
the first quarter of 1996. This increase is due to salary
increases granted in 1997, incentive wage programs based on profit
levels, and the allocation of additional resources to the sales
force. Selling, general and administrative expenses represented
21% and 22% of sales for the three-month periods ended March 31,
1997 and 1996, respectively.
Interest expense decreased 48% from $126,000 for the first
quarter of 1996 to $65,000 for the current period. This decline
resulted from lower interest rates and lower levels of borrowing on
the United States revolving credit facility as working capital
needs have been financed primarily by cash flows from operating
activities.
The income tax provision for the first quarter of 1997 was 34%
of pretax income as compared to a 36% effective tax rate for the
same period in 1996.
Financial Condition
- -------------------
There were no significant changes in the financial condition
of the Company during the first quarter of 1997.
Working capital of $10,272,000 at March 31, 1997 compares to
$8,179,000 at December 31, 1996. The working capital increase
reflects an increase in current assets of $811,000 related mainly
to accounts receivable and a decrease in current liabilities of
$1,282,000 which related primarily to accrued compensation. The
increase in accounts receivable was attributable to the significant
sales in the first quarter of 1997 which exceeded 1996 fourth
quarter sales by 5%. The decrease in accrued compensation is due
to the timing of payment of certain benefits. The working capital
ratio was 2.08 at March 31, 1997 and 1.76 at December 31, 1996.
Total long-term debt increased $1,314,000 due substantially to
additional borrowings on the United States revolving credit
facility for working capital needs. This debt is classified as
long term as the agreement allows the Company to convert borrowings
greater than $2,000,000 and up to $9,000,000 into a two-year term
loan at any time. The long-term debt to equity ratio is 26%
compared to 16% at year-end 1996 and the total liabilities to
assets ratio is 60% compared to 61% at year-end 1996.
Capital expenditures for the three month period were $237,000
compared to $109,000 for the same period in 1996. There were no
major commitments for capital expenditures as of March 31, 1997.
In fiscal year 1998, the Company anticipates capital expenditures
of approximately $1,000,000 primarily for machinery and computer
equipment.
Management expects that the cash flow from operations and lines
of credit will be sufficient to fund the 1997 cash requirements.
New Orders and Backlog
- ----------------------
New orders were $11,150,000 compared to $11,431,000 in the
first quarter of 1996 and backlog of unfilled orders of $22,348,000
currently compares to $25,578,000 at December 31, 1996. New orders
in the United States were $9,739,000 as compared to $10,114,000 in
the first quarter 1996. New orders in the United Kingdom were
$1,411,000 compared to $1,317,000 in the first quarter 1996.
Backlog at March 31, 1997 in the United States is $21,011,000
compared to $24,514,000 at year-end 1996. Backlog at March 31,
1997 in the United Kingdom is $1,337,000 compared to $1,064,000 at
year end 1996. Although backlog and new orders are down in the
United States, prospects for new orders in the refinery, chemical
and fertilizer industries are good. Currently, contract
negotiations on a major order for a geothermal project are being
finalized. In the United Kingdom, maintaining order levels has
been difficult due to competition and the strength of the Pound
Sterling. However, a major order was received during the quarter
causing an increase in the backlog and growth is anticipated in the
package and standard pump product lines. The current backlog is
scheduled to be shipped during the next twelve months and
represents orders from traditional markets in the Company's
established product lines.
Accounting Changes and Change in Fiscal Year
- --------------------------------------------
In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128,
"Earnings Per Share," which is effective for interim and annual
periods ending after December 15, 1997. Early adoption of the
statement is not permitted. SFAS No. 128 will require the Company
to restate all previously reported earnings per share information
to conform with the new pronouncement's requirements.
Effective April 1, 1997, the Company changed its year end from
December 31 to March 31. Management anticipates that this change
will be beneficial to the operations of the business.
