Words such as "anticipates, appears, expects, intends, hopes, plans, believes, seeks, estimates, may, will," and variations of these words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to operating results, new product introductions and sales, competitive conditions, customer demand, capital expenditures and resources, manufacturing capacity utilization, and intellectual property claims and defense. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are included in, but not limited to, those identified in "Item 1A - Risk Factors" in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended September 30, 2008 and in the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in such Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report.
Results of Operations
Revenues
For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, our net revenues increased by $74,600 (10%) compared to the same quarter of fiscal 2008, primarily from increases in digital cinema product sale. However, for the nine months ended June 30, 2009, our net revenues decreased by $758,200 (30%) compared to the same period of fiscal 2008. This decrease was primarily the result of the revenues from military projects decreasing and further deterioration of the revenue contributions from our older product offerings.
Expenses
Our cost of revenues for the quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2009 decreased $984,400 (85%) and $2,048,800 (70%) compared to the same periods of fiscal 2008. This decrease is the result of the decrease in net revenues and a decrease in write-downs of inventory in fiscal 2009. During fiscal 2008, the Company wrote down $1,911,000 of slow-moving and/or obsolete inventory as of June 30, 2008, while in fiscal 2009, the inventory write-downs aggregate $250,200.
Research and development (R&D) expenditures for the quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2009 decreased by $111,100 (28%) and $224,400 (20%) compared to the same periods of fiscal 2008. This decrease was the result of a reduction in staffing. As the development of new products is key to future growth, R&D expenses are expected to continue at the current level.
Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenditures for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 increased by $11,300 (4%) compared to the same quarter of fiscal 2008; however, for the nine months ended June 30, 2009, SG&A expenses decreased by $57,100 (5%). This decrease was primarily the result of a non-recurring severance charge in fiscal 2008.
For the quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2009, interest income decreased by $12,100 (100%) and $35,600 (78%) compared to the same periods of fiscal 2008. This decrease is the result of lower cash balances and lower interest rates. Write-offs of capital equipment decreased in fiscal 2009 from $129,900 in fiscal 2008 to $49,400.
The decrease in inventory write-downs and expenditures helped the Company to recognize a small net income of $30,700 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to a net loss of $1,116,800 for the fiscal 2008 quarter, while also decreasing the nine-month period's net loss from $2,671,300 in fiscal 2008 to $1,011,000 for fiscal 2009.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows
While the net loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 was $1,011,000, the net cash used for operations was only $545,400. During the first nine months of fiscal 2009, we wrote-off $250,200 of inventory, which increased the net loss but did not affect cash flows. Reductions of accounts receivable resulted in net cash inflows of $109,200 for operations. The liquidating of auction rate securities during January 2009 also resulted in an increase in net cash of $975,000, while the Company used $246,500 for the purchase of capital equipment to prepare for testing of new products.
Although we had a net loss of $2,671,300 for the nine months ended June 30, 2008, we used net cash of only $40,400, primarily because the net loss included inventory write-downs totaling $1,911,000 and a loss on the disposal of capital equipment no longer in use totaling $129,900. Both these items contributed to the net loss but did not affect cash. In addition, we produced cash from the collection of accounts receivable aggregating $256,900 and from the sale of existing inventory aggregating $166,300. During the nine months ended June 30, 2008, we also spent $229,400 on capital equipment.
Working Capital
Historically, due to order scheduling by our customers, up to 80% of our quarterly revenues are shipped in the last month of the quarter, so a large portion of shipments included in our quarter-end accounts receivable are not yet due per our net 30 day terms. As a result, quarter-end accounts receivable balances are typically at their highest level for the respective period.
As a fabless semiconductor company with products having longer than normal product life cycles, our investment in inventories has been, and will continue to be, significant. Although high levels of inventory impact liquidity, we believe these costs are a less costly alternative to owning a wafer fabrication facility. Over the past few years, we have attempted to streamline our product offerings, in turn reducing our inventory levels, and we will continue this effort in the upcoming periods.
During fiscal 2008, we reduced our inventory by 47%, or $2,077,300, including write-downs of $1,911,000, and have reduced our inventory by an additional 9%, or $132,800, during the first nine months of fiscal 2009. This reduction in fiscal 2009 includes a write-down of $250,200 for slow-moving inventory.
Financing
On November 10, 2008, we obtained a no net-cost line of credit from UBS Bank USA for the $975,000 par value of our Auction Rate Securities (ARS). We drew down the entire $975,000 available balance on November 21, 2008 so we would have the cash readily available rather than held in the illiquid ARS at UBS Financial Services Inc. (UBS). This loan was no net-cost as the interest charged was the lesser of the LIBOR rate plus an established percentage rate or the interest and/or dividends earned on our ARS. Therefore, our interest paid can be no more than the interest and/or dividends we earn on the ARS. In addition, on October 16, 2008, we signed an agreement with UBS to sell our ARS to UBS at par value within a two-year period beginning January 2, 2009.
At the time these ARS Rights were exercised, we planned to pay back the no net-cost loan from UBS Bank USA and the line would be closed. In December 2008, UBS liquidated $50,000 of our $975,000 of ARS, which we used to pay down the line of credit. In January 2009, the remaining $925,000 of ARS were liquidated and paid down against the line of credit and all UBS accounts were closed in February 2009.
We believe the cost reductions we have undertaken in the past few years will allow us to use this cash, along with cash from future revenues, to fund current operations and future capital needs. However, we continue to evaluate our debt and equity financing opportunities.
Impact of New Financial Accounting Standards
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. This statement also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 became effective on October 1, 2008 for us and we did not elect to adopt the fair value option for any financial instruments.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No.162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles. SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles
and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of
financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in
conformity with GAAP. SFAS 162 will become effective 60 days following the SEC's
approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU
Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles. SFAS No. 162 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after November 15, 2008. We are currently assessing the impact, if any, SFAS 162
will have on our financial statements.
