MISCOR GROUP, LTD.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)

NOTE A — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of MISCOR Group, Ltd. (the “Company”) as of and for the six months ended July 3, 2011 and July 4, 2010, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. The results for the six months ended July 3, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 for the most recent disclosure of the Company’s accounting policies.

As a result of the sale of the Company’s Construction and Engineering Services operations and the sale and planned sale of the Company’s Rail Services operations, the financial results associated with these operations were classified as discontinued operations on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and held-for-sale on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (See Note C, Discontinued and Held-for-sale Operations).

The Company has obtained a 60-day extension (Ninth Amendment) of its Wells Fargo line of credit, through August 30, 2011. The Company and Wells Fargo have not yet finalized the new credit facility it needs to be able to retire the Wells Fargo line of credit by the August 30, 2011 termination date and to operate throughout the remainder of 2011. Additionally, $4,000 of other debt is currently scheduled to mature in 2011. These conditions, coupled with its recurring losses from operations, raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments to the reported financial statements have been made that may result from this uncertainty.

NOTE B — RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, (amendments to ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition)” (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-13 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2009-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE C — DISCONTINUED AND HELD-FOR-SALE OPERATIONS

Construction and Engineering Services Business

In December 2009, the Company announced its plan to sell its CES business, consisting of its Martell Electric and Ideal subsidiaries, in order to raise operating capital and focus on its core industrial services operations. On February 3, 2010, the Company completed the sale of 100 percent of the equity of Martell Electric and Ideal to the Company’s Chairman and former President and Chief Executive Officer, John A. Martell, and his wife, Bonnie M. Martell, for $3,500, consisting of $750 in cash and a $2,750 reduction in the amount owed under a previously issued $3,000 note held by Mr. Martell (the “Martell Note”). Under the sale agreement, the purchase price was subject to a working capital adjustment which the Company could satisfy either with cash or by increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Martell Note.


Table of Contents

The sale agreement set forth a target working capital range of $2,900-$3,200 at closing. Immediately post-closing, the actual combined working capital for Martell Electric/Ideal was approximately $1,226. During the first half of 2010, the Company recorded working capital adjustments of $(1,654), choosing to satisfy the working capital adjustment by increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Martell Note. These adjustments brought the final sale price to $1,846, comprised of $527 for Ideal and $1,319 for Martell Electric, with the final sale proceeds consisting of a cash payment of $750 and a net reduction of $1,096 in amounts owed under the Martell Note. During the six months ended July 4, 2010, the Company recognized a pretax gain on sale of $136 from the sale of its CES business, which was included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations within Income from Discontinued Operations.

Mr. Martell disputes the settlement of the working capital adjustment and has requested that our disinterested director negotiate to satisfy the working capital adjustment other than through an increase in the outstanding principal balance of the Martell Note. A letter from Mr. Martell to the Company, dated September 3, 2010, purports to accelerate payment of the amount due under the Martell Note. The subordination agreement prohibits payment without Wells Fargo’s prior written consent, which has not been obtained. (See Note H, Related Party Transactions and Note K, Commitments and Contingencies).

HK Engine Components

In December 2009, the Company announced its plan to sell its HKEC subsidiary in order to focus on its core industrial services operations. As a result, the Company has reported HKEC as held-for-sale as of July 3, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The carrying value of the long-lived assets of HKEC was adjusted to their fair market values at December 31, 2009 based on the expected selling price of HKEC. The Company re-evaluated the value of these long-lived assets as of December 31, 2010 and deemed no adjustment to these values was necessary. The Company continues to try to sell HKEC.

The following table provides revenue and pretax income from the HKEC discontinued operations:

NOTE F — SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY

As of July 3, 2011, the Company had a $5,000 secured revolving credit agreement (“credit agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank National Association (“Wells Fargo”) with interest due monthly at LIBOR plus 4.75% (effectively 5.0% at July 3, 2011), due August 30, 2011. At July 3, 2011 and December 31, 2010, approximately $2,996 and $3,263, respectively, was outstanding on the credit facility. The borrowings under the credit facility are limited by specified percentages of the Company’s eligible receivables as defined in the credit agreement. At July 3, 2011, approximately $970 of additional borrowings were available under the revolving credit agreement. The credit facility is secured by all assets of the Company.

The provisions of the revolving note include a lock-box agreement and also allow Wells Fargo, in its reasonable credit judgment, to assess additional reserves against, or reduce the advance rate against accounts receivable used in the borrowing base calculation. Wells Fargo, in its reasonable credit judgment, can assess additional reserves to the borrowing base calculation or reduce the advance rate against accounts receivable to account for changes in the nature of the Company’s business that alters the underlying value of the collateral. The reserve requirements may result in an over-advance borrowing position that could require an accelerated repayment of the over-advance portion. As a result, the Company classifies borrowings under the revolving note as a short-term obligation.

Additionally, under a real estate loan with Wells Fargo, the Company has outstanding $41 at July 3, 2011 and $322 at December 31, 2010. Under the loan agreement, the Company is to make monthly installments of $52 per month plus interest. The Company paid interest expense of approximately $4 and $8 for the three months ended July 3, 2011 and July 4, 2010 and $8 and $18 for the six months ended July 3, 2011 and July 4, 2010, respectively.

Interest expense under the Wells Fargo credit facility, excluding amortization of debt issue costs and accretion of debt discount, was $67 and $136 for the three and six months ended July 3, 2011 and $107 and $196 for the three and six months ended July 4, 2010.

Default and Waiver Agreements

On January 14, 2010 the Company and Wells Fargo executed a Sixth Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Sixth Amendment”). The Sixth Amendment amended the Credit Agreement in the following respects:

 

   

Consented to the planned sale of the CES business;

   

Revised the definition of “Borrowing Base”, resulting in lower available borrowings;

   

Required additional weekly principal payments of $10,000 on the real estate term note; and

   

Extended until January 27, 2010, and reduced to $1,000 the previously agreed upon requirement for the Company to raise $2,000 additional capital through subordinated debt, asset sales, or additional cash equity.

On February 14, 2010, we received a letter agreement from Wells Fargo which amended the Credit Agreement as follows:

 

   

Revised the terms of Wells Fargo’s consent to the sale of our CES business; and

   

Extended until February 19, 2010 the requirement for the Company to raise $1,000 additional capital through subordinated debt, asset sales, or additional cash equity.


Table of Contents

On April 15, 2010, the Company and Wells Fargo executed a Seventh Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Seventh Amendment”). The Seventh Amendment amended the Credit Agreement in the following respects:

 

   

Waived the Company’s noncompliance with the minimum book net worth and maximum capital expenditures from working capital covenants for the year ended December 31, 2009;

   

Adjusted the minimum book net worth covenant to $21,500 as of December 31, 2009;

   

Adjusted the allowable capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2010 to a maximum of $500;

   

Incorporated a monthly minimum EBITDA covenant commencing in April, 2010; and

   

Eliminated the previously agreed upon requirement for the Company to raise $1,000 additional capital through subordinated debt, asset sales, or additional cash equity.

In connection with the Seventh Amendment, the Company paid Wells Fargo an accommodation fee equal to $75.

On December 17, 2010, the Company and Wells Fargo entered into the Eighth Amendment to Credit and Security Agreement (the “Eight Amendment”), pursuant to the following revised terms:

 

   

amortization of the term loan remained at $21 per month through January 31, 2011, when it increased to $52 per month;

   

the term loan is to be paid in full upon the earlier of the sale of the Company’s HKEC business or upon maturity;

   

the real estate loan was to be paid in full by December 31, 2011, using revolver availability;

   

accounts receivable between 91 – 120 days cease to be eligible collateral on the earlier of a sale of the Company’s HKEC business or May 31, 2011, having been subjected to a cap gradually decreasing from $275 in monthly increments of $50 through May 31, 2011;

   

the “percentage of ineligibility” test for accounts owed by an account debtor was to reduce from 35% of the total due from an account debtor to 25%, no later than January 31, 2011;

   

a stop loss covenant of ($400) measured monthly on a year-to-date basis commenced January 1, 2011; and

   

Capital expenditures during 2011 are limited to $200.

Wells Fargo was paid a $25 accommodation fee in connection with the Eighth Amendment.

On June 30, 2011, the Company and Wells Fargo entered into the Ninth Amendment to Credit and Security Agreement (the “Ninth Amendment”). In the Ninth Amendment, Wells Fargo agreed to extend our senior credit facility through August 30, 2011, pursuant to the following revised terms:

 

   

a reduced revolver availability of $5,000;

   

a reduced interest rate of Daily Three Month LIBOR plus 4.75%; and

   

an addition of up to the lesser of $300 or five percent (5%) of the aggregate amount of accounts receivable.

Wells Fargo was not paid an accommodation fee in connection with the Ninth Amendment.

The current agreement with Wells Fargo expires on August 30, 2011. The Company is currently renegotiating terms of a new credit facility with Wells Fargo, and anticipates having a new credit facility in place by August 30, 2011 (See additional discussion at Note N — Management Plans).

The Company has promissory notes outstanding to BDeWees, Inc. XGenIII, Ltd., and John A. Martell, in the principal amounts of $2,000, $2,000 and $2,079, respectively (together the “Subordinated Indebtedness”) (See Note I, Related Party Transactions). Subordination agreements have been executed which subordinate the obligations of the Company under the Subordinated Indebtedness to the Wells Fargo credit facility.

For the three months ended July 3, 2011 and July 4, 2010, interest expense of $2 and $1, respectively and for the six months ended July 3, 2011 and July 4, 2010, interest expense of $4 and $5 was attributable to the Company’s discontinued operations and recorded within Income from Discontinued Operations on the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements.

NOTE H — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Trade accounts receivable and accounts payable

As of July 3, 2011, the Company has trade accounts receivable of $323 and $56 due from Martell Electric, LLC and Ideal Consolidated, Inc., respectively.

As of July 3, 2011, the Company has trade accounts payable of $73 due to Martell Electric, LLC.

Long-term debt, officers

In December 2009, the Company announced its plan to sell its Construction and Engineering Services business (“CES business”), consisting of its Martell Electric, LLC (“Martell Electric”) and Ideal Consolidated, Inc. (“Ideal”) subsidiaries, in order to raise operating capital and focus on its core industrial services operations. As a result, the Company has reported Martell Electric and Ideal as held-for-sale, and adjusted the carrying value of Martell Electric’s and Ideal’s long-lived assets based on the sale agreement. On February 3, 2010, the Company completed the sale of 100 percent of the equity of Martell Electric and Ideal to the Company’s Chairman and former President and CEO, John A. Martell, and his wife, Bonnie M. Martell, for $3,500, consisting of $750 in cash and a $2,750 reduction in the amounts owed under a previously issued $3,000 note, held by Mr. Martell (the “Martell Note”). Under the sale agreement, the purchase price was subject to a working capital adjustment which the Company could satisfy either with cash or by increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Martell Note. Interest expense on the note was $27 and $54 for the three and six months ended July 3, 2011 and $20 and $37 for the three and six months ended July 4, 2010.

The sale agreement set forth a target working capital range of $2,900-$3,200 at closing. Immediately post-closing, the actual combined working capital for Martell Electric/Ideal was approximately $1,226. During the first half of 2010, the Company recorded working capital adjustments of $(1,654), choosing to satisfy the working capital adjustment by increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Martell Note. These adjustments brought the final sale price to $1,846, comprised of $527 for Ideal and $1,319 for Martell Electric, with the final sale proceeds consisting of a cash payment of $750 and a net reduction of $1,096 in amounts owed under the Martell Note. During the six months ended July 4, 2010, the Company recognized a pretax gain on sale of $136 from the sale of its CES business, which was included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within Income from Discontinued Operations.

Mr. Martell disputes the settlement of the working capital adjustment, and has requested that the disinterested directors of the Company negotiate to satisfy the working capital adjustment other than through an increase in the outstanding principal balance of the Martell Note. A letter from Mr. Martell to the Company, dated September 3, 2010, purports to accelerate payment of the amount due under the Martell Note. The subordination agreement prohibits payment without Wells Fargo’s prior written consent, which has not been obtained.

The Company is indebted to the former members of 3-D, Bernie DeWees, whom served as President of MIS through November 20, 2009, for two notes payable (“Seller Notes”) each with a balance of $2,000 at July 3, 2011 and December 31, 2010 (See Note H, Senior Credit Facility and Note I, Long Term Debt). These notes were renegotiated and their maturity dates were extended by one year, on November 30, 2010. Interest is payable monthly at 12%. The loans mature on November 30, 2011. Interest expense on these notes was $120 and $240 for the three and six months ended July 3, 2011 and $16 and $32 for the three and six months ended July 4, 2010.

Leases

The Company leases its South Bend, Indiana, Hammond, Indiana, and Boardman, Ohio facilities from its Chairman of the Board and stockholder. Total rent expense under these agreements was approximately $73 for the three month periods ended July 3, 2011 and July 4, 2010, respectively. The lease for the Hammond, Indiana facility will expire on August 3, 2011. The Company leases a facility in South Bend for its former corporate offices from its Chairman of the Board and stockholder. This lease is set to expire in May 2012. As a result of closure and relocation of the corporate office to Massillon in June 2010, the Company no longer uses this office space. The Company is still obligated to pay rent on the South Bend facility. As of July 3, 2011 and December 31, 2010, approximately $122 and $172, respectively, was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the abandoned lease.

The Company leases its Hagerstown, Maryland facility from a partnership of which an officer of the Company’s subsidiary, HK Engine Components, LLC, is a partner. Rent expense under this agreement was $41 and $80 for the three and six months ended July 3, 2011 and $73 and $146 for the three and six months ended July 4, 2010.

The Company leases a facility in Massillon, Ohio from a partnership, one partner of which is a former officer of MIS, under an agreement expiring in November 2017. Rent expense under the lease was $135 and $270 for the three and six months ended July 3, 2011 and July 4, 2010.

NOTE I — INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

The Company accounts for income (loss) per common share under the provisions of ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted income (loss) per common share. Basic income (loss) per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted income (loss) per common share is computed assuming the conversion of common stock equivalents, when dilutive.

For the three and six months ended July 3, 2011, the Company’s common stock equivalents, consisting of warrants to purchase 308,197 shares of common stock and options to purchase 58,800 shares of common stock issued to employees under the 2005 Stock Option Plan, were not included in computing diluted loss per share because the effect of including the warrants and options would have been anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended July 4, 2010, the Company’s common stock equivalents, consisting of warrants to purchase 308,526 shares of common stock and options to purchase 23,600 shares of common stock issued to employees under the 2005 Stock Option Plan were not included in computing diluted loss per share because the effect of including the warrants and options would have been anti-dilutive. For the six months ended July 4, 2010, the Company’s common stock equivalents, consisting of a weighted average of 220,541 potential shares of common stock related to convertible subordinated debt securities, warrants to purchase a weighted average of 308,364 shares of common stock and options to purchase a weighted average 31,930 shares of common stock issued to employees under the 2005 Stock Option Plan, were not included in computing diluted loss per share because the effect of including the warrants and options would have been anti-dilutive.

NOTE J — CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

The Company grants credit, generally without collateral, to its customers, which are primarily in the power, metal working, scrap and rail industries. Consequently, the Company is subject to potential credit risk related to changes in economic conditions within those industries. However, management believes that its billing and collection policies are adequate to minimize the potential credit risk. At July 3, 2011 and December 31, 2010, approximately 30% and 15%, respectively, of gross accounts receivable were due from entities in the power industry, approximately 21% and 25%, respectively, of gross accounts receivable were due from entities in the steel, metal working and scrap industries, and approximately 27% and 14%, respectively, of gross receivables were due from entities in the rail industry. One customer doing business with the Industrial Services and Rail Services segments accounted for approximately 17% of gross accounts receivable at July 3, 2011. Another customer, doing business with the Company’s Industrial Services and Rail Services segments accounted for approximately 12% and 6% of total consolidated revenue for the three months ended July 3, 2011 and July 4, 2010, respectively. For the six months end July 4, 2010, one other customer, of the Industrial Services segment accounted for approximately 23% of revenue from continuing operations. The loss of any of these customers would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

NOTE K — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Collective bargaining agreements

At July 3, 2011 and December 31, 2010, approximately 11% of the Company’s employees were covered by collective bargaining agreements.

Warranty reserves

The Company warrants workmanship after the sale of its products and services, generally for a period of one year. An accrual for warranty costs is recorded based upon the historical level of warranty claims and management’s estimates of future costs.

Product warranty activity for the three and six months ended July 3, 2011 and July 4, 2010 is as follows:

Employment Agreement

On June 18, 2010, the Company entered into an employment agreement with its newly appointed President and CEO, Michael P. Moore. The agreement was for an initial one-year term, subject to earlier termination as provided in the agreement. At each year-end, the agreement will automatically renew for successive one-year periods unless either party, at least three months before the end of the initial term or any renewal term, requests termination or renegotiation of the agreement. The employment agreement provides for certain benefits to the executive if employment is terminated by the Company for cause, by the executive with good reason, or due to death or disability. The benefits include continuation of the executive’s base salary for six months, any earned but unpaid profit-sharing or incentive bonus, stock option and company-paid health insurance for six months.

Construction and Engineering Services Working Capital Adjustment

Subsequent to agreement of the working capital adjustment related to the sale of our Construction and Engineering Services businesses, the purchasers initiated discussions with the Company’s disinterested director about restructuring payment of the working capital adjustment. Specifically, the purchasers are requesting that all or part of the working capital adjustment be paid in cash, which would require the consent of the Company’s senior lender, Wells Fargo Bank. MISCOR had elected, as permitted under the purchase agreement, to apply the full amount of the working capital adjustment to the Martell Note. The purchaser, Wells Fargo and the Company’s disinterested director have not yet reached an agreement on restructuring payment of the working capital adjustment.

NOTE L — FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses

The carrying amounts of these items are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Debt

As of July 3, 2011 and December 31, 2010, rates currently available to us for long term borrowings with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of existing borrowings at the present value of expected cash flows. As of July 3, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair value of debt differed from the carrying amount due to favorable interest terms on the notes with the Company’s CEO. At July 3, 2011 and December 31, 2010 the aggregate fair value of debt, with an aggregate carrying value of $9,224 and $9,786, respectively, is estimated at $9,721 and $9,884, respectively, and is based on the estimated future cash flows discounted at terms at which the Company estimates it could borrow such funds from unrelated parties.

NOTE N — MANAGEMENT PLAN

In 2011, the Company’s management plan is to continue cost cutting efforts, by improving gross margins via strategic sourcing and improved efficiencies. Additionally, during the last part of 2010, the Company added salesmen in key areas, in order to grow core revenues, and may add additional salesmen. The Company continues pursuing the divestiture of HKEC, as this business does not fit with the Company’s core business competencies. The Company continues to also consider strategic alternatives, including those that may affect it’s capital structure. Lastly, the Company will pursue renewing it’s lending facility with Wells Fargo. By doing such, management believes the Company can significantly reduce its interest expense, increase its base borrowing and eliminate lending restrictions currently in place.

The Company has obtained a 60-day extension (the “Ninth Amendment”) of its Wells Fargo line of credit, through August 30, 2011. The Company and Wells Fargo have not yet finalized the new credit facility which the Company needs to be able to retire the Wells Fargo line of credit by the August 30, 2011 termination date and to operate throughout 2011. Additionally, $4,000 of other debt is currently scheduled to mature in 2011. These conditions, coupled with its recurring losses from operations, raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments to the reported financial statements have been made that may result from this uncertainty.

 

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

Overview

We provide electro-mechanical repair and maintenance solutions to industrial customers primarily in the United States. Our services include repair, maintenance and remanufacturing of electric motors for the steel, rail, and renewable energy industries from five locations in the Midwest and California; repair and manufacture of industrial lifting magnets for the steel and scrap industries from two locations in the Midwest; and manufacturing and remanufacturing of power assemblies, engine parts and other components related to large diesel engines from two locations on the East Coast.

The severity and extended nature of the most recent recession and the subsequent slow economic recovery resulted in a steep decline in demand for products and services in the industries that we support. In 2009 and throughout 2010, we undertook a number of actions to reduce our fixed costs, improve operational efficiencies and increase operating margins. The Company suspended non-essential cash expenditures and severely reduced capital expenditures. These were efforts to align our operating costs with the decline in sales and respond to debt service and supplier demands. By the end of 2010, the Company had achieved substantially all components of its restructuring plan, with the exception of the divestiture of HK Engine Components, LLC (“HKEC”).

In December 2009, we announced a restructuring plan in response to the economic issues and banking environment. This plan established a focus on our industrial services businesses providing repair and maintenance services for electric motors and electric magnets, with the intent to divest our other operations, including our operations that specialize in the manufacturing and remanufacturing of diesel engine components, our operations specializing in the repair and remanufacture of locomotives, and our construction and engineering services businesses.


Table of Contents

In 2010, part of the Company’s restructuring plan also included relocating the Company’s corporate offices to Massillon, Ohio in order to more centrally locate our management team within our operational area and reduce selling, general and administrative expenses. This relocation was completed during the second quarter of 2010. Also, as part of this plan, the Company divested the construction and engineering businesses as well as two of our subsidiaries in the rail services industry. As of July 3, 2011, the Company still owns HKEC, which services the rail services industry. The financial results for HKEC are recorded as discontinued operations.

In 2011, the Company’s management plan is to continue cost cutting efforts, by improving gross margins via strategic sourcing and improved efficiencies. Additionally, during the last part of 2010, the Company added salesmen in key areas, in order to grow core revenues, and may add additional salesmen. The Company continues pursuing the divestiture of HKEC, as this business does not fit the Company’s core business competencies. We also continue to consider strategic alternatives, including, but not limited to, obtaining an equity infusion, being acquired and/or going private. Lastly, by refinancing, repaying or extending our existing debt by current maturity dates, management believes the Company can significantly reduce its interest expense, increase its base borrowing and eliminate lending restrictions currently in place.

Revenues from continuing operations in the six months ended July 3, 2011 increased approximately 10% from the six months ended December 31, 2010, reflecting increased service demand. Gross profit increased with lower direct costs and overhead reduction efforts. The benefit of various cost reduction initiatives were realized in SG&A with a reduction of approximately 40% compared to the six months ended December 31, 2010. Consequently, the first half of 2011 as compared to the second half of 2010 realized improved operating results. Unlike the second half of 2010, as the Company has experienced improvement in the volume of past due accounts payable, the Company has experienced fewer suppliers placing us on credit hold or cash in advance terms. As more suppliers provide us credit terms, we have begun to experience a positive impact in our sales and operating margins in 2011.

The Company has obtained a 60-day extension (Ninth Amendment) of its Wells Fargo line of credit, through August 30, 2011. The Company and Wells Fargo have not yet finalized the new credit facility it needs to be able to retire the Wells Fargo line of credit by the August 30, 2011 termination date and to operate throughout 2011. Additionally, $4,000 of other debt is currently scheduled to mature in 2011. These conditions, coupled with its recurring losses from operations, raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As the Company expects to finalize a refinancing of the Wells Fargo credit facility by August 30, 2011 and to repay or extend its other debt obligations by their currently scheduled maturity dates, no adjustments to the reported financial statements have been made that may result from this uncertainty.

Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting polices used in preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note B of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements within the Form 10-K. No additional significant accounting policies have been adopted during Fiscal 2011.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, (amendments to ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition)” (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-13 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2009-13 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended July 3, 2011 Compared to Three Months Ended July 4, 2010

Revenues. Revenues from continuing operations increased by $0.2 million or 1.9% to $9.3 million for the three months ended July 3, 2011 from $9.1 million for the three months ended July 4, 2010. For 2010 and 2011, the Construction and Engineering and Rail Services segments have been classified as discontinued operations. For 2011, the Rail Service segment has been classified as discontinued operations. The increase in revenue is related to increased service revenue and a concentrated effort to re-establish the Company in the market place. Additionally, the Company is beginning to experience some economic recovery in the markets we serve.

Gross Profit. Total gross profit from continuing operations for the three months ended July 3, 2011 was $1.8 million or 19.8% of revenues from continuing operations compared to $1.7 million or 18.7% of revenues from continuing operations for the three months ended July 4, 2010. For 2010 prior to its sale, the Construction and Engineering and Rail Services segments have been classified as discontinued operations. For 2010 and 2011, the Rail Service segment has been classified as discontinued operations. The Industrial Services gross profit increased due to our ability to continue eliminating costs and improve efficiencies.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations were $1.6 million for the three months ended July 3, 2011 compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended July 4, 2010, reflecting cost reduction efforts, mainly staff reductions, enacted as part of our management plan during the early part of 2010.

Interest Expense and Other Income. Interest expense for continuing operations increased slightly from the three months ended July 4, 2010 to the three months ended July 3, 2011 mainly due to an increase in interest expense associated with a portion of our subordinated debt. Additionally, the Company recognized $0.1 million of other income as the result of the expiration of an exclusivity agreement, which expired, with a potential buyer of the HKEC business unit.

Provision for Income Taxes. We have experienced net operating losses in each year since we commenced operations. We are uncertain as to whether we will be able to utilize these tax losses before they expire. Accordingly, we provided a valuation allowance for the income tax benefits associated with these net future tax assets that primarily relate to cumulative net operating losses, until such time as profitability is reasonably assured and it becomes more likely than not that we will be able to utilize such tax benefits.

Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations. Income from continuing operations increased by $0.8 million or 118% to $0.1 million for the three months ended July 3, 2011 from $(0.7) million for the three months ended July 4, 2010. The increase in income from continuing operations is primarily attributed to a $0.1 million improvement in gross profit margin and $0.6 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, as discussed in the gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses sections above.

Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations. Income from discontinued operations of $0.4 million for the three months ended July 3, 2011 increased compared to a loss from discontinued operations of ($0.1) million for the three months ended July 4, 2010. The income from discontinued operations as of July 3, 2011 relates directly to our HK Engine Components, LLC subsidiary. The increase is due to increased sales in rail services.

Net Income (Loss). Net income for the three months ended July 3, 2011 was $0.5 million compared to a net loss of ($0.8) million for the three months ended July 3, 2010. The $1.3 million increase was mainly due to improved operating results, including improved margins, improved operational efficiencies and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses within our Industrial Services segment, as well as increased income from discontinued operations related to our HK Engine Components, LLC subsidiary.

Six Months Ended July 3, 2011 Compared to Six Months Ended July 4, 2010

Revenues. Revenues from continuing operations increased by $0.4 million or 2.3% to $17.5 million for the six months ended July 3, 2011 from $17.1 million for the six months ended July 4, 2010. For 2010, the Construction and Engineering segment has been classified as discontinued operations. For 2010 and 2011, the Rail Services segment has been classified as discontinued operations. The increase in revenue is related to increased service revenue and a concentrated effort to re-establish the Company in the market place. Additionally, the Company continues to experience some economic recovery in the markets we serve. These increases in revenues were attributed to both volume and pricing.


Table of Contents

Gross Profit. Total gross profit from continuing operations for the six months ended July 3, 2011 was $3.5 million or 20.1% of revenues from continuing operations compared to $2.9 million or 16.9% of revenues from continuing operations for the six months ended July 4, 2010. For 2010 prior to its sale, the Construction and Engineering and Rail Services segments have been classified as discontinued operations. For 2010 and 2011, the Rail Service segment has been classified as discontinued operations. The Industrial Services gross profit increased due to our ability to continue eliminating costs and improve efficiencies.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations were $3.2 million for the six months ended July 3, 2011 compared to $4.5 million for the six months ended July 4, 2010, reflecting cost reduction efforts, mainly staff reductions, implemented as part of our management plan during the early part of 2010.

Interest Expense and Other Income. Interest expense for continuing operations increased slightly from the six months ended July 4, 2010 to the six months ended July 3, 2011 mainly due interest expense associated with a portion of our subordinated debt and with an increase in borrowing against our revolving line of credit contributing slightly.

Provision for Income Taxes. We have experienced net operating losses in each year since we commenced operations. We are uncertain as to whether we will be able to utilize these tax losses before they expire. Accordingly, we provided a valuation allowance for the income tax benefits associated with these net future tax assets that primarily relate to cumulative net operating losses, until such time as profitability is reasonably assured and it becomes more likely than not that we will be able to utilize such tax benefits.

Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations. Loss from continuing operations improved by $2.0 million or 123% to $0.0 million for the six months ended July 3, 2011 from $(2.0) million for the six months ended July 4, 2010. The increase in income from continuing operations is primarily attributed to a $0.6 million improvement in gross profit margin and $1.4 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, as discussed in the gross profit and selling, general and administrative expenses sections above.

Income from Discontinued Operations. Income from discontinued operations of $0.8 million for the six months ended July 3, 2011 increased compared to income of $0.2 million for the six months ended July 4, 2010. For the six months ended July 3, 2010, the income from discontinued operations includes $0.4 million in pretax gain on disposal of discontinued operations. Excluding this pretax gain, this segment generated a loss of ($0.1) million. Additionally, the results for the six months ended July 4, 2010 include pretax loss from discontinued operations of ($0.4) million related to the Construction and Engineering Services and AMP businesses, which were both divested during the first quarter 2010. Accordingly, the income from discontinued operations as of July 3, 2011 relates directly to our HKEC subsidiary. For this subsidiary, we recorded income from discontinued operations of $0.8 million for the six months ended July 3, 2011 compared to $0.1 million for the six months ended July 4, 2010. The increase is due to increased sales in rail services.

Net Income (Loss). Net income for the six months ended July 3, 2011 was $0.7 million compared to a net loss of $1.8 million for the six months ended July 3, 2010. The $2.5 million increase was mainly due to improved operating results, including improved margins, improved operational efficiencies and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses within our Industrial Services segment, as well as increased income from discontinued operations related to our HKEC subsidiary.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At July 3, 2011, we had approximately $1.4 million of working capital, an improvement of $0.6 million as compared to December 31, 2010. The increase is primarily due to a decrease in accounts payable owed at July 3, 2011.

Net cash provided (utilized) by operating activities was $0.7 million for the six months ended July 3, 2011 compared to ($1.0) million for the six months ended July 4, 2010. This increase is primarily due to the Company generating income and reducing its levels of accounts receivable.


Table of Contents

For the six months ended July 3, 2011, net cash flows provided (utilized) by investing activities declined by $1.0 million to ($0.1) million compared to $0.9 million for the six months ended July 4, 2010. This decrease is a direct result of proceeds from the disposal of discontinued operation for the six months ended July 4, 2010, as well as the acquisition of property and equipment for the six months ended July 3, 2011.

Net cash provided (utilized) by financing activities decreased by $0.7 million to ($0.6) million for the six months ended July 3, 2011 as compared to $0.1 million for the six months ended July 4, 2010. This decrease is directly attributed to repayments against our revolving line of credit and long term debt.

The Company expects that the refinancing of the existing senior credit facility will provide increased availability, and additionally, the refinancing of the long-term debt and subordinated notes due in 2011 and early 2012 will provide additional working capital. Prior operating results and the banking environment offer challenges in modifying or establishing a new senior credit facility. Consequently, capital may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

Certain of our trade accounts payable are extended beyond the terms acceptable to the vendor. As a result, certain vendors have placed us on credit hold or require cash in advance which has resulted in delays in the receipt of necessary materials and parts. Disruptions of this nature have resulted in the loss of sales orders, and future delays may have an adverse affect on our business.

We continue our efforts to enhance our future cash flows. These improvements include efforts to collect accounts receivable at a faster rate, decrease inventory levels, improve operating margins, review alternative financing sources, obtain a term loan collateralized by machinery and equipment, and negotiate extended terms with our vendors.

The Company has obtained a 60-day extension (Ninth Amendment) of its Wells Fargo line of credit, through August 30, 2011. The Company and Wells Fargo have not yet finalized the new credit facility it needs to be able to retire the Wells Fargo line of credit by the August 30, 2011 termination date and to operate throughout 2011. Additionally, $4,000 of other debt is currently scheduled to mature in 2011. These conditions, coupled with its recurring losses from operations, raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments to the reported financial statements have been made that may result from this uncertainty.

We have promissory notes outstanding to BDeWees, Inc. and XGen III, Ltd. (together, the “Seller Notes”) and John A. Martell, in the original principal amounts of $2.0 million, $2.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively (collectively, the “Subordinated Indebtedness”). (See Note I, Related Party Transactions). Subordination agreements have been executed that subordinate our obligations under the Subordinated Indebtedness to the Wells Fargo credit facility.

Effective as of December 1, 2010, the Seller Notes were extended through November 30, 2011. Under the loan modification agreements, the time for the payment of principal upon maturity has been extended for one year in consideration of a higher interest rate, monthly installment payments of principal and interest, additional collateral and certain other changes. Prior to a default, the amended and restated Seller Notes bear interest at prime plus 1%, subject to a minimum of 12% until Wells Fargo’s term debt is fully repaid, and thereafter subject to a minimum of 7% per annum. Monthly interest payments may be made, and beginning when we repaid the term loan to Wells Fargo in late December, 2010, repayments of $10 principal per month to each holder of a Seller Note commenced. Upon any sale or combination of sales of assets exceeding $1.0 million gross, or upon a Change in Control as defined in the loan modification agreements, after repayment of transaction costs not to exceed 8%, and that portion of the revolver attributable to the assets sold, each Seller Noteholder will receive a principal payment of 12.5% of the net proceeds from such sale or sales. For an HKEC sale, each Seller Noteholder is to receive a $70 principal payment. The loan modification agreements also restrict both Magnetech and MISCOR from incurring additional indebtedness without the consent of the lenders, excepting $0.1 million per year for indebtedness for certain capital expenditures. The Seller Noteholders have a shared third lien on 3-D Services’ accounts receivable and inventory in addition to their existing shared second lien on 3-D Services’ fixed assets.

MISCOR is in the process of renegotiating its senior credit facility, which is expected to reduce interest expense, provide increased availability, and eliminate financially restrictive covenants. Negotiations continue to extend or repay the Company’s subordinated debt prior to maturity. MISCOR expects to extend or repay $4,000 of subordinated debt prior to its scheduled maturity date of November 2011, and to extend or repay


Table of Contents

approximately $1,750 of additional subordinated debt prior to its scheduled maturity date in March 2012. Conditions at the time, coupled with previously recurring losses, caused our auditors to express doubt in their report on our December 31, 2010 financial statements as to our ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments to the reported financial information have been made that may result from this uncertainty.

As of July 3, 2011, we did not have any material commitments for capital expenditures.

Discussion of Forward-Looking Statements

Certain matters described in the foregoing “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as other statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements, which include any statement that is not an historical fact, such as statements regarding our future operations, future financial position, business strategy, plans and objectives. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as “may,” “intend,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “could,” “estimate” or “plan” or the negative variations of those words or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. A “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements is provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (Reform Act of 1995). The Reform Act of 1995 was adopted to encourage such forward-looking statements without the threat of litigation, provided those statements are identified as forward-looking and are accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those projected in the statement.

Management based the forward-looking statements largely on its current expectations and perspectives about future events and financial trends that management believes may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategies, short-term and long-term business objectives, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements, due to, among other things, factors identified in this report, and those identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.
