POWELL INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes To Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
A. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION | |||
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information in accordance with the rules of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all annual disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related footnotes included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2004. In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. | ||||
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. | ||||
During the first quarter 2005, we revised auction rate securities held as investments from cash and cash equivalents to available-for-sale marketable securities. Accordingly, we revised our consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2004 to conform to the current year presentation. The aggregate fair value of these securities is equal to recorded cost, and each auction rate security has a maturity exceeding eight years from April 30, 2005 and October 31, 2004. As of October 31, 2004, $50.3 million of auction rate securities were included in cash and cash equivalents. The statements of cash flows for the six months ended April 30, 2005 and 2004 also include the revised presentation. The revised statement of cash flows for the period ended April 30, 2004 reports cash used from investing activities of $6.6 million compared to $3.1 million as previously reported. | ||||
Stock-Based Compensation | ||||
In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, we have elected to account for our stock-based employee compensation plans under the intrinsic value method established by Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. Under APB No. 25, no compensation expense is recorded when the exercise price of the employee stock option is greater than or equal to the market price of the common stock on the grant date. | ||||
If compensation expense for our stock option plans had been determined based on the fair value at the grant date for awards through April 30, 2005 consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, our net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share would have been as follows: |

New Accounting Standards | ||||
In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. The amendments made by SFAS No. 151 clarify that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted materials (spoilage) should be recognized as current-period charges and require the allocation of fixed production overheads to inventory based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The guidance is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after November 23, 2004. We do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 151 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. | ||||
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. SFAS No. 123(R) will require that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. SFAS No. 123(R) covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. SFAS No. 123(R) replaces FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS No. 123, as originally issued in 1995, established as preferable a fair value-based method of accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees. However, that Statement permitted entities the option of continuing to apply the guidance in APB Opinion No. 25, as long as the footnotes to financial statements disclosed what net income would have been had the preferable fair value-based method been used. Public entities will be required to apply SFAS No. 123(R) as of the first annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R). | ||||

The Company had a net loss for the three and six months ended April 30, 2005; accordingly, the inclusion of common stock equivalents for outstanding stock options would be antidilutive and, therefore, the weighted average shares used to calculate both basic and diluted loss per share are the same. For the three and six months ended April 30, 2004, options to purchase approximately 354,000 and 356,000 shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options exercise prices were greater than the average market price of common stock. |

The above intangible and other assets are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Amortization expense related to intangible assets subject to amortization for the three and six months ended April 30, 2005 was approximately $18,000 and $28,000, respectively, and $17,000 and $35,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended April 30, 2004. Estimated amortization expense for each of the subsequent five fiscal years is expected to be approximately $50,000. | ||||
H. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | |||
Certain customers require us to post a bank letter of credit guarantee or performance bonds issued by a surety. These guarantees and performance bonds assure our customers that we will perform under terms of our contract and with associated vendors and subcontractors. In the event of default the customer may demand payment from the bank under a letter of credit or performance by the surety under a performance bond. To date there have been no significant expenses related to either for the periods reported. We were contingently liable for secured and unsecured letters of credit of $10.8 million as of April 30, 2005. We also had performance bonds totaling approximately $172 million that were outstanding at April 30, 2005. | ||||
The Company is a party to a construction joint venture (the Joint Venture), which provided process control systems to the Central Artery/Tunnel Project (the Project) in Boston, Massachusetts, under a contract with the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority (the MTA). The Joint Venture has submitted claims against the MTA seeking additional reimbursement for work done by the Joint Venture on the project. In a separate matter, the Joint Venture received notice dated May 9, 2002 (the Notice) from the MTA that a follow-on contractor has asserted a claim against the MTA in connection with work done or to be done by the follow-on contractor on the project. One component of the Project involved the Joint Venture performing specific work that the MTA then bid for the follow-on contractor to complete. The follow-on contractors claim, in part, includes allegations that work performed by the Joint Venture was insufficient and defective, thus possibly contributing to the follow-on contractors claims for damages against the MTA. In the Notice of the potential claim, the MTA advised the Joint Venture that if it is required to pay the follow-on contractor additional amounts and such payment is the result of defective work by the Joint Venture, the MTA will seek indemnification from the Joint Venture for such additional amounts. | ||||
The Joint Venture has no reason to believe the systems it delivered under contract to the MTA were defective and accordingly it intends to vigorously defend any such allegations. An unfavorable outcome to the follow-on contractors claim could have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition and results of operations. The ultimate disposition of the Joint Ventures claim against the MTA and the MTAs potential claim for indemnification based on the follow-on contractors claims are not presently determinable. | ||||
I. | CONSOLIDATION OF OPERATIONS | |||
To reduce overhead costs and improve efficiency, we initiated a consolidation plan in fiscal 2004 to reduce the number of operating locations within our Electrical Power Products segment. As of June 30, 2004, the consolidation of our Greenville, Texas facility into our North Canton, Ohio facility was completed, resulting in the transfer of our distribution switch product lines. In October 2004, we completed the consolidation of our bus duct product lines by combining our Elyria, Ohio operations into our Northlake, Illinois facility. As of April 30, 2005, the consolidation of our Watsonville, California operations into our Houston, Texas facility was completed, resulting in the transfer of our power electronics product lines to Houston. The consolidation of our operations have resulted in the involuntary termination of approximately 100 employees. | ||||
As of April 30, 2005, the unpaid balance of the consolidation costs is included in accrued salaries, bonuses and commissions on the consolidated balance sheet. |

POWELL INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Item 2. Managements Discussion And Analysis Of Financial Condition And Results Of Operations
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. In the course of operations, we are subject to certain risk factors, including but not limited to competition and competitive pressures, sensitivity to general economic and industry conditions, international political and economic risks, availability and price of raw materials and execution of business strategy. Any forward-looking statements made by or on our behalf are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Readers are cautioned that such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties in that the actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.
Overview
We develop, design, manufacture, and service equipment and systems for the management and control of electrical energy and other critical processes. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, we serve the transportation, environmental, industrial, and utility industries. Our business operations are consolidated into two business segments: Electrical Power Products and Process Control Systems. Financial information related to these business segments is included in Note E of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Results of Operations
Revenue and Gross Profit
Consolidated revenues increased $7.4 million to $58.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 as compared to second quarter 2004 revenues primarily due to a strengthening order backlog. Domestic revenues increased by 14% to $49.2 million. International revenues were $9.7 million in the second quarter 2005 compared to $8.4 million in the same quarter of the prior year. Revenues outside of the United States accounted for 16% of consolidated revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 unchanged from the same period last year.
For the six months ended April 30, 2005, consolidated revenues increased $1.9 million to $106.6 million compared to the six months ended April 30, 2004 of $104.7 million. Domestic revenues for the first six months of fiscal 2005 were $91.2 million compared to $88.4 million for the first six months of fiscal 2004. International revenues were $15.4 million for the first six months of fiscal 2005 compared to $16.3 million for the same period of last year. For the six months ended April 30, 2005, revenue outside of the United States accounted for 14% of consolidated revenues compared to 16% for the same period a year ago.
Electrical Power Products
Our Electrical Power Products segment recorded revenues of $48.4 million for the three months ended April 30, 2005 compared to $44.0 million for the same time period of the previous year. During the second quarter of fiscal 2005, revenues from utility markets strengthened compared to the same period of the prior year. In the second quarter of fiscal 2005, revenues from public and private utilities were approximately $27.6 million, an increase of $16.6 million compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2004. Revenues from industrial customers totaled $19.0 million compared to $30.3 million from the same period of the previous year. Municipal and transit projects generated revenues of $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2005 compared to $2.7 million in the same period a year ago.
For the six months ended April 30, 2005, this segment recorded revenues of $88.1 million compared to $90.2 million for the first six months of fiscal 2004. During the first six months of 2005, revenues from utility markets strengthened from the same period a year ago. Utility revenues totaled $42.9 million, an increase of approximately 44%. Industrial revenues were $39.5 million, compared to $51.5 million a year ago and revenues from municipal and transit projects totaled $5.8 million, compared to $8.9 million for the same period last year.
Gross profit, as a percentage of revenues declined to 12.3% in the second quarter of fiscal 2005, compared to 16.0% in the second quarter of fiscal year 2004. Material costs increased $0.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to the same
13
period a year ago, primarily due to copper, aluminum and steel. In addition, gross profit margins were adversely impacted in the second quarter of 2005 by competitive pricing pressures due to depressed market levels when jobs were bid in previous periods. Contract labor increased approximately $0.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2005 compared to the same period of last year due to additional labor needed to handle the increase in volume.
For the six months ended April 30, 2005, gross profit as a percentage of revenues decreased to 12.7% from 16.9% for the first six months of fiscal 2004. Higher commodity price levels and competitive pricing due to depressed market levels have contributed to lower gross profit. Direct material costs increased approximately 2.3%, or $1.0 million, during the first six months of 2005 compared to the same period a year ago. In addition, incremental production costs of approximately $0.6 million were incurred during the first three months of fiscal 2005 due to start-up difficulties and inefficiencies with our recently relocated distribution switch product line.
Process Control Systems
Revenues in our Process Control Systems segment increased to $10.5 million for the three months ended April 30, 2005 from $7.5 million for the same period of the prior year. Additionally, revenues for this segment increased to $18.5 million for the six months ended April 30, 2005 from $14.6 million for the same period of the prior year. The majority of the increase related to our contract to design and build Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) for the Holland and Lincoln tunnels from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. As of April 30, 2005, the remaining value associated with this project in our backlog was $10.7 million which is expected to be recognized as revenue in the next six to nine months.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenues improved to 23.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to 21.3% in the same quarter of the prior year and increased to 22.9% for the first half of fiscal 2005 compared to 20.3% in the same period of fiscal 2004. This increase in gross profit margin can be attributed to improved job performance on the ITS project discussed above and the increase in revenue without a commensurate increase in operating costs. Gross profits, as a percentage of revenues, will fluctuate due to the large amount of subcontract work and material pass-through.
For additional information related to our business segments, see Note E of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.2 million to $9.4 million in the second quarter of 2005 compared to the same period of last year. Research and development expenditures were $0.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to $0.9 million in last years second quarter. Commission expenses for manufacturing sales representatives, as well as, direct sales expenses increased by approximately $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2005 compared to the second quarter of 2004 due to the increase in revenues and backlog. Accounting and auditing expenses increased by $0.2 million primarily due to costs incurred for Sarbanes-Oxley compliance. Additionally, selling, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2004 were reduced due to the collection of $0.4 million from a customer which had been previously written off as bad dcbt expense.
For the six months ended April 30, 2005, selling, general and administrative expenses were $18.9 million, or 17.7% of revenues, compared to $16.7 million, or 16.0% of revenues, for the first six months of fiscal 2004. For the six months ended April 30, 2005, research and development expenditures were $1.2 million compared to $1.8 million in first six months of fiscal 2004. Commission expenses for manufacturing sales representatives, as well as, direct sales expenses increased by approximately $0.8 million in the first half of fiscal 2005 compared to the second half of fiscal 2004. Accounting and auditing expenses increased by $0.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2005 compared to the same period of fiscal 2004 primarily due to costs incurred for Sarbanes-Oxley compliance. Additionally, selling, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2004 were reduced due to the collection of $0.4 million from a customer which had been previously written off as bad dcbt expense.
Interest expense was approximately $139,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2005, an increase of approximately $105,000 compared to the same period in fiscal 2004. This increase is primarily due to interest expense related to interest payments to certain state taxing authorities related to voluntary disclosure agreements.
14
For the six months ended April 30, 2005, we incurred $216,000 in interest expense compared to $62,000 for the same time period of fiscal 2004. This increase is primarily related to the interest payments to state taxing authorities discussed above.
We earned approximately $317,000 of interest income in the second quarter of 2005 compared to approximately $175,000 in the same period of the previous year and approximately $594,000 in the first six months of 2005 compared to $367,000 in the same period of the prior year. Interest income increased primarily due to higher market interest rates and a higher average balance of marketable securities in the first six months of fiscal 2005 compared to the same period in fiscal 2004.
Provision for Income Taxes
Our provision for income taxes reflects an effective tax rate on earnings before income taxes of (61.5%) in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to 37.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2004 and an effective tax rate of (44.4%) in the first six months of fiscal 2005 compared to 36.9% in the first six months of fiscal 2004 . This increase is primarily due to a higher blended state tax rate and less federal benefit for certain of those state taxes.
Net Income
In the second quarter of 2005, we incurred a net loss of $295,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to net income of $360,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2004. For the six months ended April 30, 2005, we incurred a net loss of $1.7 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2004. Lower gross profits in our Electrical Power Products business segment and higher selling, general and administrative expenses have resulted in a net loss in fiscal 2005.
Backlog
The order backlog on April 30, 2005, was $161.4 million, compared to $134.3 million at fiscal year end 2004 and $131.2 million at the end of the second quarter one year ago. New orders placed during the second quarter totaled $73.6 million compared to $45.3 million in the same period one year ago.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have maintained a strong liquidity position. Working capital was $97.9 million at April 30, 2005 compared to $99.3 million at October 31, 2004. As of April 30, 2005, current assets exceeded current liabilities by 3.0 times and our debt to capitalization ratio was 4.8%.
As of April 30, 2005, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $41.3 million compared to $63.2 million as of October 31, 2004. Long-term debt and capital lease obligations, net of current maturities, totaled $6.6 million at April 30, 2005 compared to $6.6 million at October 31, 2004. In addition to our long-term debt, we have a $15 million revolving credit agreement expiring February 2007. As of April 30, 2005, there were no borrowings under this line of credit. We were in compliance with all debt covenants as of April 30, 2005.
Operating Activities
For the six months ended April 30, 2005, cash used in operating activities was $20.2 million compared to cash provided by operations of $12.1 million for the six months ended April 30, 2004. This reduction in cash was principally used to fund growth in accounts receivable, inventories and costs related to uncompleted contracts which were not billed. This use of cash has resulted from the ramp up of our manufacturing operations resulting in working capital being required to fund the increase in volume.
Investing Activities
Cash used for the purchase of property, plant and equipment during the six months ended April 30, 2005 was $2.1 million compared to $3.1 million for the same period of the prior year. The majority of our 2005 capital expenditures were used to improve our capabilities to manufacture switchgear and electrical power control rooms. A year ago, the majority of our capital expenditures were used to increase our manufacturing capabilities available for the manufacture of electrical power modules. These modules are provided to the oil and gas industry for use on offshore platforms.
15
Net proceeds from the sale and purchases of auction rate securities during the six months ended April 30, 2005 were $13.8 million compared to cash used to purchase short term auction rate securities of $3.4 million for the six months ended April 30, 2004. Auction rate securities were sold to finance working capital requirements of the business in the first six months of fiscal 2005.
Financing Activities
Financing activities provided $0.4 million for the six months ended April 30, 2005 compared to $0.6 million in the same period a year ago. The primary source of cash from financing activities was proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
Outlook
We expect our principal markets to strengthen throughout 2005. Customer inquiries, or requests for proposals, have steadily strengthened during the second half of fiscal 2004 and on into the first six months of 2005. One of the positive trends we have experienced is an increase in new order activity. Orders during the second quarter and first quarter of 2005 totaled $73.6 million and $60.1 million, respectively, compared to $45.3 million and $33.1 million in the same periods one year ago. We are optimistic that we will maintain this strengthened order rate throughout fiscal 2005.
In our Electrical Power Products segment, new orders during the second quarter and first quarter of 2005 totaled $62.1 million and $55.5 million, respectively, compared to $38.4 million and $30.3 million in the same periods one year ago. In addition, we expect to realize lower overhead expenses and increased efficiencies as a result of our consolidation efforts initiated in 2004 and capital improvements, both of which should improve our competitive position. Although our Process Control Systems segment continues to experience soft market conditions, we anticipate increased funding for municipal projects will be available as general economic conditions strengthen. We believe we are well-positioned to take advantage of improving economic conditions.
We anticipate that we will need to reinvest a portion of our cash in operating working capital for the remainder of fiscal 2005. Working capital needs are anticipated to increase with growing levels of business activity. We believe that working capital, borrowing capabilities, and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to finance the anticipated operational activities, capital improvements, debt repayments and possible future acquisitions for the foreseeable future.

POWELL INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Item 3. Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to certain market risks arising from transactions we have entered into in the normal course of business. These risks primarily relate to fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices.
We are subject to market risk resulting from changes in interest rates related to our outstanding debt and investments in marketable debt securities. Regarding our various debt instruments outstanding at April 30, 2005 and October 31, 2004, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would result in a total annual increase in interest expense of less than $75,000. Our investments in marketable debt securities are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet, with unrealized gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income. Changes in interest rates will affect the fair value of the marketable securities as reported. While we do not currently have any derivative contracts to hedge our exposure to interest rate risk, we have in the past and may in the future enter into such contracts. Overall, we believe that changes in interest rates will not have a material near-term impact on our future earnings or cash flows. During each of the past three years, we have not experienced a significant effect on our business due to changes in interest rates.
Our market risk associated with foreign currency rates is not considered to be material, since we primarily arrange compensation in U.S. dollars. During each of the past three years, we have not experienced a significant effect on our business due to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
We are subject to market risk from fluctuating market prices of certain raw materials. While such materials are typically available from numerous suppliers, commodity raw materials are subject to price fluctuations. We attempt to pass along such commodity price increases to our customers on a contract-by-contract basis to avoid profit margin erosion. While we may do so in the future, we have not entered into any derivative contracts to hedge our exposure to commodity risk in fiscal years 2005 or 2004. During 2004 and the first half or fiscal 2005, we experienced significant price pressures with some of our key raw materials. Competitive market pressures limited our ability to pass these cost increases to our customers, thus eroding our earnings in 2004 and the first half of fiscal 2005. Fluctuations in commodity prices may have a material near-term effect on our future earnings and cash flows.

POWELL INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Item 4. Controls And Procedures
Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have each concluded that as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
We also maintain a system of internal accounting controls that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that our books and records accurately reflect our transactions and that our policies and procedures are followed. There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
