CPS TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION
Notes to Financial Statement
(Unaudited)

(1) Nature of Business

CPS Technologies Corporation (the “Company” or “CPS”) provides advanced material solutions to the electronics, power generation, automotive and other industries. The Company`s primary advanced material solution is metal-matrix composites which are a combination of metal and ceramic.

 

CPS also assembles housings and packages for hybrid circuits. These housings and packages may include components made of metal-matrix composites or they may include components made of more traditional materials such as aluminum, copper-tungsten, etc.

In 2008 the Company also entered into a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Army to further develop its composite technology to produce armor.

 

(2) Interim Financial Statements

As permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, these notes are condensed and do not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

 

The accompanying financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements of CPS reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for such periods.

 

The Company`s balance sheet at December 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. Certain items in the 2011 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2012 presentation.

 

For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Registrant`s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

 

 

(3) Net Income Per Common and Common Equivalent Share

Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares plus additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential dilutive common shares had been issued for granted stock options and stock purchase rights. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted calculations when a net loss is incurred as they would be anti-dilutive.

The following table presents the calculation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”):

 

For periods ended
		March 31,		April 2,

stock options		--			466,173
Total Shares		12,865,659			13,180,992
Diluted EPS		$(0.04)			$0.00

 

(4) Share-Based Payments

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company provides an estimate of forfeitures at initial grant date. Reductions in compensation expense associated with the forfeited options are estimated at the date of grant, and this estimated forfeiture rate is adjusted periodically based on actual forfeiture experience. The company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the stock options granted.

 

There were no shares granted under the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) during the quarters ended March 31, 2012 or April 2, 2011. During the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and April 2, 2011, the Company recognized $58,034 and $50,896 respectively as shared-based compensation expense related to previously granted shares under the Plan. During the quarter ended March 31, 2012 there were no option exercises. During the quarter ended April 2, 2011 the Company issued 43,750 shares as a result of option exercises.

 

As of March 31, 2012, there was $769,470 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the plans; that cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 4.25 years.

Total Accrued expenses		$681,688			$660,031

 

(7) Line of Credit and Equipment Lease Facility Agreements

In early May 2012 the Company increased its $1 million revolving line of credit (“LOC”) to $ 2 million and renewed it $ 1.25 million equipment finance facility (“Lease Line”) with Sovereign Bank.   Both agreements mature in May 2013.  The LOC is secured by the accounts receivable and other assets of the Company, has an interest rate of prime plus one percent (1%) and a one-year term. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is required to maintain its operating accounts with Sovereign Bank. The LOC and the Lease Line are cross defaulted and cross collateralized. The Company is also subject to certain financial covenants within the terms of the line of credit that require the Company to maintain a targeted coverage ratio as well as targeted debt to equity and current ratios. At March 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with existing covenants and there were no borrowings outstanding. At March 31, 2012, the Company had $0.33 million net carrying value of capital equipment financed by the Sovereign equipment finance facility and $0.92 million available remaining on the Sovereign equipment finance facility.

 

(8) Income Taxes

At December 31, 2011, the Company had approximately $1,368,000 of net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future income for U.S. Federal income tax purpose.

 

The Company recorded a tax benefit of $240,000 for federal income taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 and a tax benefit of $74,000 for state income taxes during the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

 

The Company has a current and non-current deferred tax asset aggregating $1,794,817 and $1,480,817 on the Company`s balance sheet at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. A valuation allowance is required to be established or maintained when it is "more likely than not" that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company believes that it will generate sufficient future taxable income to realize the tax benefits related to the remaining deferred tax assets and as such no valuation allowance has been provided against the deferred tax asset.

 

(9) Commitment

In February 2011, the Company entered into a one-year lease, with five options to renew for one year periods, for approximately 13,800 square feet of rentable space inside a larger building located at 79 Walton Street, Attleboro, Massachusetts. Monthly rent, which includes utilities, is $6,900. In February 2012, the Company exercised the first of the five one year renewal options.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. There are a number of factors that could cause the Company`s actual results to differ materially from those forecasted or projected in such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or changed circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

The critical accounting policies utilized by the Company in preparation of the accompanying financial statements are set forth in Part II, Item 7 of the Company`s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, under the heading “Management`s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. There have been no material changes to these policies since December 31, 2011.

 

Overview

CPS Technologies Corporation (the `Company` or `CPS`) provides advanced material solutions to the electronics, power generation, automotive and other industries. In 2008 the Company also entered into a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Army to further develop its composite technology to produce armor.

 

The Company`s products are generally used in high-power, high-reliability applications. These applications always involve energy use or energy generation and the Company`s products allow higher performance and improved energy efficiency. The Company is an important participant in the growing movement towards alternative energy and "green" lifestyles. For example, the Company`s products are used in mass transit, hybrid and electric cars, wind-turbines for electricity generation as well as routers and switches for the internet which in turn allows telecommuting.

 

The Company`s primary advanced material solution is metal matrix composites (MMCs), a new class of materials which are a combination of metal and ceramic. CPS has a leading, proprietary position in metal matrix composites. Metal matrix composites have several superior properties compared to conventional materials including improved thermal conductivity, thermal expansion matching, stiffness and light weight which enable higher performance and higher reliability in our customers` products.

 

Like plastics several decades ago, we believe metal-matrix composites will penetrate many end markets over many years. CPS management believes our business model of providing advanced material solutions to a portfolio of high growth end markets which are, at any point in time, in various stages of the technology adoption lifecycle, provides CPS with the opportunity for sustained growth and a diversified customer base. We believe we have validated this model as we are now supplying customers at all stages of the technology adoption lifecycle.

 

CPS is the leader in supplying metal matrix composites to certain high growth electronics end markets which are well along in the adoption lifecycle and therefore generating significant demand. These end markets include high-performance integrated circuits and circuit boards used in internet switches and routers, as well as motor controllers used in high-speed electric trains, subway cars and wind turbines. CPS supplies heat spreaders, lids and baseplates to customers in these end markets. CPS is a fully qualified manufacturer for many of the world`s largest electronics OEMs.

 

CPS also assembles housings and packages for hybrid circuits. These housings and packages may include components made of metal-matrix composites; they may include components made of more traditional materials such as aluminum, copper-tungsten, etc.

 

A market at an earlier stage of the adoption lifecycle is the market for hybrid and electric automobiles. The Company recently announced a multi-year supply agreement with a major tier one automotive supplier for the supply of AlSiC pin fin baseplates for use in motor controllers for hybrid and electric automobiles.

 

We are also actively working with customers in end markets at the beginning stages of the adoption lifecycle. An example of such a market is the market for armor. In 2008 the Company entered into a cooperative agreement with the Army Research Laboratory to further develop large hybrid metal matrix composite modules which integrally combine metal matrix composites and ceramics by enveloping ceramic tiles with MMCs. This system offers a lighter weight, durable, multi-hit capable and cost competitive alternative to conventional steel, aluminum and ceramic based armor systems. CPS hybrid hard face armor modules are comprised of multiple materials completely enveloped within and mechanically and chemically bonded to lightweight and stiff aluminum metal matrix composites.

 

The Company believes that its hybrid hard face armor tiles will find application in many military vehicles as well as armored commercial vehicles.

 

Our products are manufactured by proprietary processes we have developed including the QuicksetTM Injection Molding Process (`Quickset Process`) and the QuickCastTM Pressure Infiltration Process (`QuickCast Process`).

 

CPS was incorporated in Massachusetts in 1984 as Ceramics Process Systems Corporation and reincorporated in Delaware in April 1987 through a merger into a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary organized for purposes of the reincorporation. In July 1987, CPS completed our initial public offering of 1.5 million shares of our Common Stock. In March 2007, we changed our name from Ceramics Process Systems Corporation to CPS Technologies Corporation.

 

 

Results of Operations for the First Fiscal Quarter of 2012 (Q1 2012) Compared to the First Fiscal Quarter of 2011 (Q1 2011); (all $ in 000`s)

Total revenue was $3,555 in Q1 2012, a 39% decrease from total revenue of $5,840 generated in Q1 2011. Several factors contributed to this shortfall including:  weak orders for traction products, which continue to be adversely affected by a high-speed Chinese train crash in 2011 as well as weakness in infrastructure spending in Europe as a result of the Euro crisis; a decline in demand for headspreaders and lids as certain specific products approach end of life; a drop in revenues earned from our Cooperative Agreement with the U.S. Army Research Lab, (revenues from this Agreement reached a peak in the same quarter a year ago), and a decline in the sale of hermetic packages, reflecting weak customer demand.  The impact of these factors was partially offset by an increase in the sale of baseplates for hybrid and electric vehicle applications.

 

           Gross margin in Q1, 2012 was a negative $ 34, compared with $ 856 in Q1, 2011  This reduction was due to two primary factors:  first, the reduction in sales volumes across most product lines and secondly, to a lesser extent, additional costs associated with an outside finishing operation during the quarter.   The gross margin on product sales decreased to a negative 2% in Q1 versus 16% in Q1, 2012.  This decrease  was also due principally to the same two factors:  the decline in sales volume resulting in fixed costs being spread over fewer revenue dollars and the additional finishing costs cited earlier.

 

            Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $809 in Q1, 2012, a slight decline from SG&A expenses of $817 in Q1, 2011. 

 

               As a result of the lower volume and the additional finishing costs, the Company incurred an operating loss of $843, compared with an operating profit of $39 in the same quarter last year.  Interest expense dropped from $10 in Q1, 2011 to $6 in Q2, 2012, reflecting a lower level of financing capital equipment. The net loss for Q1, 2012 totaled $534 versus net income of $16 in Q1, 2011.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources (all $ in 000`s)

            The Company`s cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2012 totaled $621, compared with cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2011 of $1,142.   The loss from operations was the primary factor for this decrease in cash.

 

            Accounts receivable at March 31, 2012 totaled $2,485 compared with $3,113 at December 31, 2011.   Days Sales Outstanding (DSOs) decreased slightly to 63 days in Q1 2012 from 66 days in Q4 2011. The accounts receivable balance at the end of December 31, 2011, and March 31, 2012 were net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $10.

 

           Inventories increased to $3,421 at March 31, 2012, from $3,139 at December 31, 2011.  This increase reflects the Company`s expectation that business will accelerate in the second half of the year.

 

           All consigned inventory is shipped under existing purchase orders and per customers` requests. Of the inventory of $3,421 at March 31, 2012, $1,474 was located at customers` locations pursuant to consigned inventory agreements. Of the total inventory of $3,138 at December 31, 2011, $1,363 was located at customers` locations pursuant to consigned inventory agreements.

 

The Company financed its working capital during Q1 2012 with existing cash balances.  The Company expects it will continue to be able to fund its working capital requirements for the remainder of 2012 from a combination of existing cash balances and borrowings under its committed bank line of credit.

.

            The Company continues to sell to a limited number of customers and the loss of any one of these customers could cause the Company to require additional external financing. Failure to generate sufficient revenues, raise additional capital or reduce certain discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company`s ability to achieve its business objectives.

 

Contractual Obligations

In early May 2012 the Company increased its $1 million revolving line of credit (“LOC”) to $2 million and renewed it $1.25 million equipment finance facility (“Lease Line”) with Sovereign Bank.   Both agreements mature in May 2013.  The LOC is secured by the accounts receivable and other assets of the Company, has an interest rate of prime plus one percent (1%) and a one-year term. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is required to maintain its operating accounts with Sovereign Bank. The LOC and the Lease Line are cross defaulted and cross collateralized. The Company is also subject to certain financial covenants within the terms of the line of credit that require the Company to maintain a targeted coverage ratio as well as targeted debt to equity and current ratios. At March 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with existing covenants and there were no borrowings outstanding. At March 31, 2012, the Company had $0.33 million net carrying value of capital equipment financed by the Sovereign equipment finance facility and $0.92 million available remaining on the Sovereign equipment finance facility.

 

As of March 31, 2012 production equipment included $393 thousand of construction in progress, and the Company had outstanding commitments to purchase $285 thousand of production equipment. The Company intends to finance production equipment in construction in progress and outstanding commitments under the lease agreement with existing cash balances and funds generated by operations.

 

In July 2006, the Company entered into a 10-year lease for its current operating facilities of approximately 37,520 square feet of rentable space located on approximately seven acres at its current site in Norton, MA. The lease is a triple net lease wherein the Company is responsible for payment of all real estate taxes, operating costs and utilities. The Company also has an option to buy the property and a first right of refusal during the term of the lease. Annual rental payments are $100 thousand in year one increasing to $150 thousand in year ten.

 

In February 2012, the Company renewed a one-year lease, and has four additional options to renew for one year periods, for approximately 13,800 square feet of rentable space inside a larger building located at 79 Walton Street, Attleboro, Massachusetts; monthly rent, which includes utilities, is $6,900.

 

The Company`s contractual obligations at March 31, 2012 consist of the following:

 

		Payments Due by Period
		Remaining in	FY 2013 -
	Total	FY 2012	FY 2015	FY 2016 -
