Business

INTRODUCTION

Micropac Industries, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, manufactures and distributes various types of hybrid microelectronic circuits, solid state relays, power controllers, and optoelectronic components and assemblies.  The Company’s products are used as components in a broad range of military, space and industrial systems, including aircraft instrumentation and navigation systems, power supplies, electronic controls, computers, medical devices, and high-temperature (200o C) products.

The Company’s facilities are certified and qualified by Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) to MIL-PRF-38534 (class K-space level), MIL-PRF-19500 JANS (space level), and MIL-PRF-28750 (class K-space level) and is certified to ISO 9001-2002. Micropac is a National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) core supplier, and is registered to AS9100-Aerospace Industry standard for supplier certification. The Company has UL approval on the new industrial power controllers.

The Company’s core technology is the packaging and interconnecting of multi-chip microelectronics modules. Other technologies include light emitting and light sensitive materials and products, including light emitting diodes and silicon phototransistors used in the Company’s optoelectronic components and assemblies.
 
The business of the Company was started in 1963 as a sole proprietorship.  On March 3, 1969, the Company was incorporated under the name of “Micropac Industries, Inc.” in the state of Delaware. The stock was publicly held by 475 shareholders on November 30, 2013.

PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGIES

The Company’s products are either custom (being application-specific circuits designed and manufactured to meet the particular requirements of a single customer) or standard proprietary components.  Custom-designed components accounted for approximately 41% of the Company’s sales for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2013, and were 36% for fiscal 2012. Standard components accounted for approximately 59% of the Company’s sales for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2013, and were 64% for fiscal 2012.

The Company provides power management and controls, sensors and displays, and optocouplers products, components and assemblies and offers a wide range of products sold to the industrial, medical, military, aerospace and space markets.

The power management and controls technologies, including custom microcircuits, solid state relays, power operational amplifiers, and regulators accounted for 34% of the Company’s business in 2013. Sensors and displays accounted for 35% of the Company’s business and the optocouplers product accounted for 31% of the Company’s business in 2013, compared to 30%, 38%, and 32% in 2012, respectively.

The Company’s core technology is the packaging and interconnecting of multi-chip microelectronics modules. Other technologies include light emitting and light sensitive materials and products, including light emitting diodes and silicon phototransistors used in the Company’s optoelectronic components and assemblies. The Company’s basic products and technologies include:
 
 
  Custom design hybrid microelectronic circuits 
  Solid state relays and power controllers 
  Custom optoelectronic assemblies and components 
  Optocouplers 
  Light-emitting diodes 
  Hall-Effect devices 
  Displays 
  Power operational amplifiers 
  Fiber optic components and assemblies 
  ●  High temperature (200º C) products 

Micropac’s products are primarily sold to original equipment manufacturers (OEM’s) who serve the following major markets:
 
 
 
3

 
 
  Military/Aerospace – aircraft instrumentation, guidance and navigations systems, control circuitry, power supplies, laser positioning 
 
Space – control circuitry, power monitoring and sensing
 
Industrial – power control equipment, robotics

The Company has one provisional patent. The Company has no licenses, franchises or labor contracts. The Company’s trademark “Mii” is registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

Sales of our products internationally are subject to government regulations, including export control regulations of the U.S. Department of State and Department of Commerce. Violation of these regulations by the Company could result in monetary penalties and denial of export privileges. The Company is not aware of any violations of export control regulations or any other applicable government regulations. The company is currently reviewing the President’s Export Control Reform Initiative and various changes in the regulations as implemented and the impact, if any, on the Company.

Five of the Company’s principal product families require government approval.  Further, a significant portion of our business is military and is dependent on maintaining our facility certifications to MIL-PRF-38534, MIL-PRF-19500 and MIL-PRF-28750.  In addition, several customers require the Company maintain ISO 9001-2002 certifications. We expect to maintain these certifications and qualifications; however, the loss of any of these certifications would have a significant negative impact on our business.

Government regulations impose certain controls on chemicals used in electronics and semiconductor manufacturing.  Micropac has obtained all the necessary environmental permits, and routinely monitors and reports the wastewater stream results to the local governing agency.  Micropac is classified as a small generator of hazardous waste, and the annual cost of complying with the regulations is minimal.

In 2013, the Company’s investment in technology through research and development, which was expensed, totaled approximately $1,544,000 ($574,000 in 2012). The Company’s research and development expenditures were directed primarily toward standard proprietary power management products, including the industrial power controllers and DC-DC converters, and continued product development and improvement associated with the Company’s space level and other high reliability programs.

In addition to the Company’s investment in research and development, various customers paid the Company approximately $338,000 in non-recurring engineering revenue with costs recorded within cost of goods sold associated with the development of custom products for specific applications.

The Company provides a one year warranty from the date of shipment to the original purchaser. The Company is obligated under this warranty to either replace or repair defective goods or refund the purchase price paid by the buyer.

CUSTOMERS

The Company’s products are marketed throughout the United States and in Western Europe, through a direct technical sales staff, independent representatives and independent stocking distributors.  Approximately 21% of the sales for fiscal year 2013 (18% in 2012) were to international customers.  Sales to Western European customers are made by independent representatives under the coordination of the Company’s office in Bremen, Germany.

Sales through the Company’s distribution channels were $4,199,000 in 2013 compared to $5,127,000 in 2012, or 21% and 29% of sales, respectively.

The Company’s major customers include contractors to the United States government. Sales to these customers for the Department of Defense (DOD) and NASA contracts accounted for approximately 61% of the Company’s revenues in 2013 compared to 65% in 2012.

The Company’s major customers are Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, Rockwell, Goodrich, Raytheon, Rockwell Int’l, and L-3. No customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s sales during 2013 while two of the Company’s distributors accounted for 13% and 10% of the Company’s sales during 2012.

BACKLOG

At November 30, 2013, the Company had a backlog of unfilled orders totaling approximately $12,531,000 compared to approximately $9,850,000 at November 30, 2012.  The Company expects to complete and ship most of its November 30, 2013 backlog during fiscal 2014.

EMPLOYEES

At November 30, 2013, the Company had 119 full-time employees (compared to 120 at November 30, 2012), of which 25 were executive and managerial employees, 33 were engineers and quality-control personnel, 10 were clerical and administrative employees, and 51 were production personnel.  None of the Company’s employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements.

The Company is an equal opportunity employer.  It is the Company’s policy to recruit, hire, train and promote personnel in all job classifications, without regard to race, religion, color, national origin, sex or age.  Above and beyond non-discrimination, we are committed to an Affirmative Action Program, dedicated to the hiring, training, and advancement within the Company of minority group members, women, veterans, and handicapped individuals.

COMPETITION

The Company competes with two or more companies with respect to each of its major products.  Some of these competitors are larger and have greater capital resources than the Company.  Management believes the Company’s competitive position is favorable with regard to our product reliability and integrity, past performance, customer service and responsiveness, timely delivery and pricing; however, no assurance can be given that the Company can compete successfully in the future.

There are approximately 50 independent manufacturing companies who are certified to supply microcircuits to MIL-PRF-38534 or supply semiconductors to MIL-PRF-19500, in addition to OEM’s, who manufacture hybrid microcircuits for their internal needs.  Micropac may compete with all of these for hybrid microcircuit, power management and optoelectronics business.  Some of the Company’s primary competitors are Teledyne Industries, Inc., MS Kennedy, Honeywell, Avago, Isolink, and International Rectifier.

SUPPLY CHAIN

The parts and raw materials for the Company’s products are generally available from more than one source.  Except for certain optoelectronic products, the Company does not manufacture the basic parts or materials used in production of its products.  From time to time, the Company has experienced difficulty in obtaining certain materials when needed.  The Company’s inability to secure materials for any reason could have adverse effects on the Company’s ability to deliver products on a timely basis and could result in loss of customers or sales.  The Company uses capacitors, active semiconductor devices (primarily in chip form), hermetic packages, ceramic substrates, resistor inks, conductor pastes, precious metals and other materials in its manufacturing operations. However, the Company has not been materially affected by such shortages. The Company’s delivery commitments to customers allow for adequate lead times for production of the products including lead time for order and receipt from the supply chain.

Some of the Company’s primary suppliers are NTK Technologies, Electrovac, Schott Glass, Semi-Dice, Colonial Circuits, Cirexx, Micross Components, Aeroflex,  and Materion Advanced Materials.


Item 1A.
Risk Factors

This annual report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Actual results could differ materially.  Investors are warned that forward-looking statements involve risks and unknown factors including, but not limited to, customer cancellation or rescheduling of orders, problems affecting delivery of vendor-supplied raw materials and components, unanticipated manufacturing problems and availability of direct labor resources.

The Company produces silicon phototransistors and light emitting diode die for use in certain military, standard and custom products. Fabrication efforts sometimes may not result in successful results, limiting the availability of these components. Competitors offer commercial level alternatives and our customers may purchase our competitors’ products if the Company is not able to manufacture the products using these technologies to meet the customer demands.
 
 
 
5

 

The Company disclaims any responsibility to update the forward-looking statements contained herein, except as may be required by law.

Majority shareholder ability to control the election of the Board of Directors

The Company’s majority shareholder, Mr. Heinz-Werner Hempel, established a partnership organized under the laws of Germany, which owns 1,952,577 shares or 75.7% of the outstanding voting shares. Mr. Hempel, through the partnership, has the ability to control the election of the Company’s Board of Directors and elect individuals who may be more sympathetic to such majority shareholder’s desires and not necessarily sympathetic to the desires of minority shareholders as to the policies and directions of the Company.  However, the ability to control the election of the Board of Directors does not modify the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors to represent the interests of all shareholders.

Availability of public shares for purchase and sale

A small number of shares are available for public purchase and sale. As a result, the Company’s reported share price may be subject to extreme fluctuations due in part to the small number of shares traded at any time.

Pricing pressures from customers for reduction in selling prices

The Company continues to experience pricing pressures from some of its OEM customers.  In some cases, the Company’s customers request the review of pricing for possible reduction in selling price on future orders.  This requires the Company to improve its productivity and to request similar price reductions from its supplier chain. If one or both of the approaches by the Company does not succeed, the Company could be required to reduce the selling price on future orders, reducing the product gross margins and affecting the Company’s net earnings in order to receive future orders from the customer. However, the Company has no agreement that requires a reduction in the selling price on any current customer order. All contracts are firm fixed pricing.

Insurance coverage and exposure to substantial claims or liabilities

The Company operates manufacturing facilities in Garland, Texas and subcontracts portions of the Company’s manufacturing to a contract manufacturer in Juarez, Mexico. These facilities use industrial machines and chemicals that could provide risks of personal injury and/or property damage.  There is no assurance that accidents will not occur.  If accidents do occur, the Company could be exposed to substantial liability. The Company maintains worker’s compensation insurance and general liability insurance for protection of its employees and for protection of the Company’s assets in Garland, Texas and for equipment and inventory located at the contract manufacturer in Juarez, Mexico. In addition to the basic policies mentioned, the Company maintains an umbrella insurance policy.  The Company reviews all insurance coverage on an annual basis, and makes any necessary adjustments based on risk assessment and changes in its business.  In the opinion of the Company’s management, and its insurance advisors, the Company is adequately insured; however, the Company’s financial position could be materially affected by claims not covered or exceeding coverage currently carried by the Company.

The Company is subject to numerous environmental regulations and changes in government policy

The Company is subject to governmental regulations pertaining to the use, storage, handling and disposal of hazardous substances used in connection with its manufacturing activities.  Failure of the Company to control all activities dealing with hazardous chemicals could subject the Company to significant liabilities or could cause the Company to cease its manufacturing activities.

The Company could be adversely affected by changes in laws and regulations made by U.S. and non U.S. governments and agencies dealing with foreign shipments.  Changes by regulatory agencies dealing with environmental issues could affect the cost of the Company’s products and make it hard for the Company to be competitive with larger companies.

Sales of our products internationally are subject to government regulations, including export control regulations of the U.S. Department of State and Department of Commerce. Violation of these regulations by the Company could result in monetary penalties and denial of export privileges. The Company is not aware of any violations of export control regulations or any other applicable government regulations. The company is currently reviewing the President’s Export Control Reform Initiative and various changes in the regulations as implemented and the impact, if any, on the Company.

The Company is subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”), which generally prohibits U.S. companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business.  Any violation of the FCPA or similar laws and regulations could result in significant expenses, divert management attention, have a material adverse effect on our business, our financial condition and our results of operations and otherwise have a negative impact on the Company and its reputation.

Product liability claims

The use of the Company’s products in commercial or government applications may subject the Company to product liability claims.  Although the Company has not experienced any product liability claims, the sale of any product may provide risk of such claims.  Product liability claims brought against the Company could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results and financial condition.

Component shortages from suppliers could affect ability to manufacture products or delay shipments to customers

The Company relies on suppliers to deliver quality raw materials in a timely and cost effective manner.  Most of the materials and components are generally available from multiple sources; however, from time to time vendors do not deliver the product as needed due to manufacturing problems or a decision to discontinue that product. Such interruption of supply or price increases could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations; however, the Company is not currently impacted by materials shortages.

The ability to develop new products and technologies used in the military, space or aerospace markets

The Company’s base products and technologies generally have long life cycles.  The Company’s products are primarily used in military, space or aerospace applications, which also have long life cycles. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to define, develop and market new products and technologies on a timely and cost effective basis. Failure to respond to customer’s requirements and to competitors’ progress in technological changes could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

General economic downturn

The Company cannot assure you that our business will not be adversely affected as a result of an industry or general economic downturn. If the Company’s supply chain is adversely affected by an economic downturn, this could result in the Company’s inability to secure materials and could have adverse effects on the Company’s ability to deliver products on a timely basis. 

The Company has potential warranty obligations

The Company provides a one year warranty from the date of shipment to the original purchaser. The Company is obligated under this warranty to either replace or repair defective goods or refund the purchase price paid by the buyer.  An unexpected number of warranty claims could negatively impact the profitability of the Company.

The Company may default on its line of credit

The Company currently has an existing loan agreement with a Texas banking institution.  In connection therewith, the Company is obligated to maintain certain minimum financial requirements in order to receive advances therefrom. The Company is currently in compliance with such financial requirements, but there is no guarantee that the Company will remain in compliance.  If the Company does not maintain compliance with each of the requirements, its ability to receive advances from the loan agreement will be impaired.

The Company is heavily dependent on a few major customers

The Company’s major customers include contractors to the United States government. Sales to these customers for the Department of Defense (DOD) and NASA contracts accounted for approximately 61% of the Company’s revenues in 2013 compared to 65% in 2012.The Company’s major customers are Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, Rockwell, Goodrich, Raytheon, Rockwell Int’l, and L3. No customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s sales during 2013 while two of the Company’s distributors accounted for 13% and 10% of the Company’s sales during 2012.

Company sales totaled $19,677,000 resulting in an increase of $1,978,000 from 2012. The major increase was in a custom medical device to one customer and a standard optocoupler to a new international industrial customer.

The Company’s major customers include contractors to the United States government. Sales to these customers for the Department of Defense (DOD) and NASA contracts accounted for approximately 61% of the Company’s revenues in 2013 compared to 65% in 2012.

The Company’s major customers are Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, Rockwell, Goodrich, Raytheon, Rockwell Int’l, and L-3. No customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s sales during 2013 while two of the Company’s distributors accounted for 13% and 10% of the Company’s sales during 2012.

New orders for fiscal year 2013 totaled $22,343,000 compared to $21,240,000 for fiscal 2012.  Approximately $9,746,000 of the new orders received in 2013 were delivered to customers in 2013, along with approximately $9,916,000 of the Company’s $9,850,000 backlog of orders at November 30, 2012 resulting in total revenue of $19,662,000. In addition, the Company had other revenue of $15,000 for total revenue of $19,677,000 in 2013.

At November 30, 2013, the Company had a backlog of unfilled orders totaling approximately $12,531,000 compared to approximately $9,850,000 at November 30, 2012. The Company expects to complete and ship most of its November 30, 2013 backlog during fiscal 2014.

Cost of sales, as a percentage of net sales, was 60.9% in 2013 compared to 71.1% in 2012.  The decrease of 10.2% as a percent of sales is associated with reductions in charges to overhead cost due to the increase in research and development activities. In addition, there was a decrease in salary and wages with a small reduction of employees in 2013. In actual dollars, cost of sales decreased $599,000 for 2013 versus 2012.

In 2013, the Company’s investment in technology through research and development, which was expensed, totaled approximately $1,544,000 ($574,000 in 2012). The Company’s research and development expenditures were directed primarily toward standard proprietary power management products, including the industrial power controllers and DC-DC converters, and continued product development and improvement associated with the Company’s space level and other high reliability programs.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses totaled 20.6% of net sales in 2013 compared to 21.7% in 2012, based on higher sales in 2013. In dollars expensed, selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $4,049,000 in 2013 as compared to $3,836,000 in 2012, an increase of $213,000. The majority of the increase was associated with increased consulting services and commission expenses associated with the increase in sales in 2013.

Interest and other income for fiscal 2013 totaled $42,000 compared to $79,000 for fiscal 2012.  The reduction in other income is related to lower reclamation of precious metals, such as gold and silver (from scrap and obsolete material).

Income before taxes for fiscal 2013 was approximately $2,139,000, or 10.9% of net sales, compared to $782,000, or 4.4% of net sales in fiscal 2012.  The increase in income was associated with the increase in revenues and lower overhead cost offset by additional investments in research and development.

Provisions for income tax for fiscal 2013 totaled $746,000 compared to $326,000 for fiscal 2012. The Company’s effective income tax rate was 35% for the year ended November 30, 2013 and was 42% for the year ended November 30, 2012. The decrease in the effective rate was the result of a decrease in the estimated Texas Franchise Tax that is based on margins as opposed to net income before taxes. As a percent of income before taxes, the estimated Texas franchise tax was 3.2% in 2013 compared to 7.7% in 2012.
 
Net income totaled approximately $1,393,000 or $0.54 per share in 2013 versus 2012 net income of $456,000 or $0.18 per share.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

On January 23, 2013, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement with a Texas banking institution.  The Loan Agreement replaces the Company's revolving line of credit with the Texas banking institution entered into on June 1, 2011.  The Loan Agreement provides for revolving credit loans, in amounts not to exceed a total principal balance of $6,000,000, and specific advance loans for acquisitions with an aggregate amount not to exceed $7,500,000 in a single advance or in multiple advances.  The Loan Agreement also contains financial covenants to maintain at all times including (i) minimum working capital of not less than $4,000,000, (ii) a ratio of senior funded debt, minus the Company’s balance sheet cash on hand to the extent in excess of $2,000,000, to EBITDA of not more than 3.0 to 1.0, and (iii) a ratio of free cash flow to debt service of not less than 1.2 to 1.0. The Company has not, to date, drawn any amounts under the loan agreement or the revolving line of credit and is currently in compliance with the financial covenants.

The Company generated $2,365,000 net cash flow from operations in 2013, primarily from net income which totaled $1,393,000 and a net change in working capital of $972,000. The Company used $257,000 in cash for investment in additional manufacturing equipment in 2013 compared to $408,000 in 2012.

The Company issued a dividend payment of $.10 per share to all shareholders of record for each of the last two years. The total dividend payment was $258,000 per year.

As of November 30, 2013, the Company had $9,263,000 in cash and cash equivalents compared to $7,415,000 in cash and cash equivalents on November 30, 2012. The Company held $2,006,000 in short term investments at November 30, 2013 and $2,004,000 at November 30, 2012.

The Company continues on-going investigations for the use of cumulative cash for business expansion and improvements, such as operational improvements, new product expansion, facility upgrades, and acquisition opportunities.

Company management believes it will meet its 2014 capital requirements through the use of cash derived from operations for the year and/or usage of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents.  There were no significant outstanding commitments for equipment purchases or improvements at November 30, 2013.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no significant off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recorded as shipments are made based upon contract prices.  Any losses anticipated on fixed price contracts are provided for currently.  Sales are recorded net of sales returns, allowances and discounts.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Subtopic 605-10-S99, Revenue Recognition (ASC 605-10-S99). ASC 605-10-S99 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenues can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) shipment has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the fee is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.
 
 
 
11

 

Inventories

Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market value and include material, labor and manufacturing overhead.  All inventories are valued using the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method of inventory valuation. The Company determines the need to write inventory down below its cost via an analysis based on the usage of inventory over a three year period and projected usage based on current backlog.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method the Company records deferred income taxes for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. The resulting deferred tax liabilities and assets are adjusted to reflect changes in tax law or rates in the period that includes the enactment date.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.  Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment.  Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences.

MICROPAC INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 2013 AND 2012


1.        BUSINESS DESCRIPTION:

Micropac Industries, Inc. (the Company), a Delaware corporation, manufactures and distributes various types of hybrid microelectronic circuits, solid state relays, power operational amplifiers, and optoelectronic components and assemblies.  The Company’s products are used as components in a broad range of military, space and industrial systems, including aircraft instrumentation and navigation systems, power supplies, electronic controls, computers, medical devices, and high-temperature (200o C) products.

2.         SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recorded as shipments are made based upon contract prices.  Any losses anticipated on fixed price contracts are provided for currently.  Sales are recorded net of sales returns, allowances and discounts.

Deferred Revenue represents prepayments from customers and will be recognized as revenue when the products are shipped per the terms of the contract.

Short-Term Investments

The Company has $2,006,000 in short term investments at November 30, 2013. Short-term investments consist of certificates of deposits with maturities greater than 90 days. These investments are reported at historical cost, which approximates fair value. All highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less are classified as cash equivalents.  All short-term investments are securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold to maturity and mature within one year.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market value and include material, labor and manufacturing overhead.  All inventories are valued using the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method of inventory valuation. The Company determines the need to write inventory down below its cost via an analysis based on the usage of inventory over a three year period and projected usage based on current backlog.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method the Company records deferred income taxes for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. The resulting deferred tax liabilities and assets are adjusted to reflect changes in tax law or rates in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company previously adopted the provisions for uncertainties in income taxes where a liability for an unrecognized tax benefit is recorded for a tax position that does not meet the “more likely than not” criteria.  The Company did not record any liability for uncertain tax positions as of November 30, 2013 and 2012.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost, and depreciation is provided using the straight-line method at rates based upon the following estimated useful lives (in years) of the assets:
 
 
Buildings
15
 
 
Facility improvements
8-15
 
 
Machinery and equipment
5-10
 
 
Furniture and fixtures
5-8
 

The Company assesses long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) ASC 360-10-35, Property, Plant and Equipment – Subsequent Measurement.  When events or circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired, an assessment is performed.  The estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset are compared to the asset’s net book value to determine if a write down to market value less cost to sell is required.
 
 
 
18

 

Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Improvements which extend the useful lives of property, plant, and equipment are capitalized.

Research and Development Costs

Costs for the design and development of new products are expensed as incurred.

Comprehensive Income

The Company has no assets or liabilities whose changes in value are recorded within comprehensive income; as such, comprehensive income and net income are the same amount.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares.  During 2013 and 2012, the Company had no dilutive potential common stock.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3.         FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The Company had no financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of November 30, 2013 and 2012.  The fair value of financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, short term investments, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their carrying amount based on the short maturity of these instruments.  There were no nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at November 30, 2013 and 2012.


4.         NOTES PAYABLE TO BANKS:

On January 23, 2013, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement with a Texas banking institution.  The Loan Agreement replaces the Company's revolving line of credit with the Texas banking institution entered into on June 1, 2011.  The Loan Agreement provides for revolving credit loans, in amounts not to exceed a total principal balance of $6,000,000, and specific advance loans for acquisitions with an aggregate amount not to exceed $7,500,000 in a single advance or in multiple advances.  The Loan Agreement also contains financial covenants to maintain at all times including (i) minimum working capital of not less than $4,000,000, (ii) a ratio of senior funded debt, minus the Company’s balance sheet cash on hand to the extent in excess of $2,000,000, to EBITDA of not more than 3.0 to 1.0, and (iii) a ratio of free cash flow to debt service of not less than 1.2 to 1.0. The Company has not, to date, drawn any amounts under the loan agreement or the revolving line of credit and is currently in compliance with the financial covenants.

5.         RELATED PARTIES:

Mr. Eugene Robinson, a director and member of the Company’s board of directors and audit committee, provides advisory services to the Company and was paid $3,600 in 2013 and $3,600 in 2012 in addition to fees received as a director and audit committee member.

6.         PRODUCT WARRANTIES:

In general, the Company warrants that its products, when delivered, will be free from defects in material workmanship under normal use and service.  The obligations are limited to replacing, repairing or giving credit for, at the option of the Company, any products that are returned within one year after the date of shipment.  The Company does not provide extended warranties.
 
 
 
19

 

The Company reserves for potential warranty costs based on historical warranty claims experience. While management considers the process to be adequate to effectively quantify its exposure to warranty claims based on historical performance, changes in warranty claims on a specific or cumulative basis may require management to adjust its reserve for potential warranty costs.

The income tax provision consisted of the following for the years ended November 30:

Federal
  $ 739,000     $ 122,000

  $ 727,000     $ 266,000

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.  Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment.  Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences. 

10.       SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER INFORMATION:

The Company’s major customers include contractors to the United States government.
