NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted number of common shares and, when applicable, common
equivalent shares outstanding during the period.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 3 - CASH FLOW STATEMENT:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual interest paid was $141,000 and $171,000 for the six
months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. In
addition, actual income taxes paid were $709,000 for each of the
six months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 4 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
128, "Earnings 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 diluted 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.
In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income" and SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS No. 130
establishes standards for reporting and disclosure of
comprehensive income and its components in financial statement
format. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity
of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and
other events and circumstances from nonowner sources. SFAS No.
130 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31,
1997 and is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.
SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for reporting information
about operating segments by public companies in their financial
statements. It also establishes related disclosures about
products and services, geographic areas and major customers.
SFAS No. 131 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1997. The Company is currently evaluating what
impact this standard will have on its disclosures.
GRAHAM CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Sales increased 15% in the second quarter 1997 compared to
1996. Sales for the second quarter increased 22% in the United
States and decreased 47% in the United Kingdom compared to 1996.
Sales for the six months ended September 30, 1997 exceeded sales
for the same period last year by 2%. Sales in the United States
increased 4% while sales in the United Kingdom declined 17% from
the same period last year. The increased sales in the United
States is attributable to production efficiencies which resulted
in certain projects being completed ahead of schedule. The
decrease in the United Kingdom sales is reflective of a decline
in orders during the first and second quarters due to the
strength of Pound Sterling.
Cost of sales as a percent of sales for the second quarter
1997 was 66% compared to 70% a year ago. Cost of sales as a
percent of sales for the three month period was 67% in the United
States compared to 71% last year and 45% in the United Kingdom
compared to 62% last year. For the six months, cost of sales as
a percent of sales was 67% compared to 71% a year ago. In the
United States, the cost of sales percentage was 68% compared to
71% last year and in the United Kingdom it was 61% compared to
66% for the same period last year. The favorable percentages for
the United States subsidiary is attributable to a reduction in
material costs. In the United Kingdom the improvement is due
primarilly to product mix and lower production overhead expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 21%
from the second quarter of 1996, and represent 24% of sales as
compared to 23% in 1996. For the six months ended September 30,
1997, selling, general and administrative expenses are up 10% as
compared to the same period in 1996 and were 24% of sales
compared to 22% in 1996. These increases are primarily
attributable to the hiring of additional sales personnel and
higher selling expenses which are directly related to the
increase in sales.
Interest expense for the second quarter and six month period
decreased 10% and 23%, respectively, as compared to the same
periods in 1996. These decreases reflect lower interest rates
and minimal borrowing on the United States revolving credit
facility due to strong cash flow experienced throughout the year.
The effective income tax rate for the second quarter and six
month period in 1997 was 34% which is relatively consistent with
the 1996 effective tax rate of 39% for the same periods.
Financial Condition
- -------------------
The financial condition of the Company has improved during
fiscal year 1997. Working capital of $11,364,000 at September 30,
1997 compares to $10,272,000 at March 31, 1997. This working
capital increase reflects a decrease in current assets of
$653,000 and a decrease in current liabilities of $1,745,000.
The decrease in current assets related primarily to a decrease in
accounts receivable due to timing of collections from customers
and a decline in inventory due to the significant sales volume in
the second quarter. This decrease was offset by an increase in
cash and equivalents and marketable securities. The decrease in
current liabilities reflects the decline in accounts payable
which is attributable to timing of purchases. The current ratio
at September 30, 1997 is 2.47 compared to 2.08 at March 31, 1997.
Capital expenditures for the six month period were $336,000
compared to $316,000 for the same period in 1996. Commitments
for capital expenditures as of September 30, 1997 were
approximately $100,000.
Short term debt increased $143,000 from March 31, 1997 which
relates to borrowings by the United Kingdom for working capital
needs. Total long-term debt decreased $1,720,000 due to paydowns
on the United States revolving line of credit. The long-term
debt to equity ratio is 10% compared to 26% at March 31, 1997 and
the total liabilities to assets ratio is 51% compared to 60% at
March 31, 1997. These ratios reflect management's success in its
efforts to reduce debt.
Management expects that the cash flow from operations and
lines of credit will provide sufficient resources to fund the
fiscal year 1998 cash requirements.
New Orders and Backlog
- ----------------------
New orders for the second quarter were $16,472,000 compared to
$10,269,000 for the same period last year. New orders in the
United States were $15,792,000 compared to $9,282,000 for the
same period in 1996. New orders in the United Kingdom were
$680,000 compared to $987,000 for the same quarter last year.
For the first half of the fiscal year new orders were
$37,260,000 compared to $27,529,000 for the comparable six month
period of 1996. New orders in the United States were $35,438,000
for the six month period compared to $25,056,000 for the same
period last year and new orders in the United Kingdom were
$1,822,000 compared to $2,473,000 in 1996. The substantial
increase in new orders in the United States is mainly
attributable to large contracts for export while the decline in
the United Kingdom is due to the high value of the Pound
Sterling.
Backlog of unfilled orders at September 30, 1997 is
$31,489,000 compared to $23,026,000 at this time a year ago and
$22,348,000 at March 31, 1997. Current backlog in the United
States of $30,377,000 compares to $21,011,000 at March 31, 1997
and $22,066,000 at September 30, 1996. Current backlog in the
United Kingdom of $1,112,000 compares to $1,337,000 at March 31,
1997 and $960,000 at September 30, 1996. 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.
