Note 1 - Organization and Operations

 

Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) manufactures optical sighting systems and assemblies for the U.S. Department of Defense, foreign military applications and commercial markets. Its products are installed on a variety of U.S. military land vehicles, such as the Abrams and Bradley fighting vehicles, light armored and advanced security vehicles, and have been selected for installation on the Stryker family of vehicles. The Company also manufactures and delivers numerous periscope configurations, rifle and surveillance sights and night vision optical assemblies. Optex Systems Holdings’ products consist primarily of build to customer print products that are delivered both directly to the military and to other defense prime contractors or commercial customers. The Company’s consolidated revenues are derived from the U.S. government, 56%, two major U.S defense contractors, 11% and 12%, one commercial customer, 7%, and all other customers, 14%. Approximately 96% of the total company revenue is generated from domestic customers and 4% is derived from Canada. Optex Systems Holdings’ operations are based in Dallas and Richardson, Texas in leased facilities comprising 93,967 square feet. As of December 29, 2019, Optex Systems Holdings operated with 105 full-time equivalent employees.

 

Note 2 - Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

Principles of Consolidation: The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Optex Systems, Inc. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Optex Systems Holdings included herein have been prepared by Optex Systems Holdings, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conjunction with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

 

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Optex Systems Holdings’ Form 10-K for the year ended September 29, 2019 and other reports filed with the SEC.

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Optex Systems Holdings for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for these periods are not necessarily comparable to, or indicative of, results of any other interim period or for the fiscal year taken as a whole. Certain information that is not required for interim financial reporting purposes has been omitted.

 

Leases: In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842). The update is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. As such, Optex Systems Holdings adopted these provisions as of the fiscal year beginning on September 30, 2019. Optex Systems Holdings has two significant operating facilities leases and one equipment lease which extends beyond twelve months and fall under the guidance of ASC Topic 842. Adoption of ASC Topic 842 resulted in the balance sheet recognition of a right-of-use asset of $1.7 million and corresponding operating lease liabilities of approximately $1.8 million as of December 29, 2019, representing the present value of future lease payments for the term of the equipment lease and both segment facility leases and which assumes the exercise of a five year renewal option at the Applied Optics Center as of November 1, 2021. See also Note 4.

Inventory: As of December 29, 2019 and September 29, 2019, inventory included:

 

   (Thousands) 
   December 29, 2019   September 29, 2019 
Raw Material  $7,260   $7,395 
Work in Process   3,722    3,599 
Finished Goods   387    254 
Gross Inventory  $11,369   $11,248 
Less: Inventory Reserves   (713)   (713)
Net Inventory  $10,656   $10,535 

 

Concentration of Credit Risk: Optex Systems Holdings’ accounts receivables for the period ended December 29, 2019 are derived from revenues of U.S. government agencies: 47%, three major U.S. defense contractors: 20%, 11% and 7%, one commercial customer, 7%, and all other customers: 8%. The Company does not believe that this concentration results in undue credit risk because of the financial strength of the obligees.

 

Accrued Warranties: Optex Systems Holdings accrues product warranty liabilities based on the historical return rate against period shipments as they occur and reviews and adjusts these accruals quarterly for any significant changes in estimated costs or return rates. The accrued warranty liability includes estimated costs to repair or replace returned warranty backlog units currently in-house plus estimated costs for future warranty returns that may be incurred against warranty covered products previously shipped as of the period end date. As of December 29, 2019 and September 29, 2019, the Company had warranty reserve balances of $75 thousand and $46 thousand, respectively.

(1) Warranty expenses accrued to cost of sales (based on current period shipments and historical warranty return rate).

 

(2) Changes in estimated warranty liabilities recognized in cost of sales associated with: the period end customer returned warranty backlog, or the actual costs of repaired/replaced warranty units which were shipped to the customer during the current period.

 

Use of Estimates: 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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from the estimates.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of the financial statement presentation date.

 

 F-7 

 

 

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, are carried at, or approximate, fair value as of the reporting date because of their short-term nature. The credit facility is reported at fair value as it bears market rates of interest. Fair values for the Company’s warrant liabilities and derivatives are estimated by utilizing valuation models that consider current and expected stock prices, volatility, dividends, market interest rates, forward yield curves and discount rates. Such amounts and the recognition of such amounts are subject to significant estimates that may change in the future.

 

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value and requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

 

The accounting guidance establishes a hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of quoted market prices and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. An asset or liability’s level is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Fair value estimates are reviewed at the origination date and again at each applicable measurement date and interim or annual financial reporting dates, as applicable for the financial instrument, and are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management at those times.

 

Each of the measurements is considered a Level 3 measurement based on the availability of market data and inputs and the significance of any unobservable inputs as of the measurement date. The methods and significant inputs and assumptions utilized in estimating the fair value of the warrant liabilities, as well as the respective hierarchy designations are discussed further in Note 6 “Warrant Liabilities”.

 

Revenue Recognition: As of fiscal-year beginning on October 1, 2018, the Company has adopted FASB ASC 606—Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which is required for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company selected a modified retrospective application of the standard for all periods presented as of the October 1, 2018 implementation date. The new revenue recognition standard requires revenue recognition based on a five-step model that includes: identifying the contract, identifying the performance obligations, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price and recognizing the revenue. The standard results in the recognition of revenue depicting the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount reflecting the expected consideration to be received from the customer for such goods and services, based on the satisfaction of performance obligations, occurring when the control of the goods or services transfer to the customer. The majority of the Company’s contracts and customer orders originate with fixed determinable unit prices for each deliverable quantity of goods defined by the customer order line item (performance obligation) and include the specific due date for the transfer of control and title of each of those deliverables to the customer at pre-established payment terms, which are generally within thirty to sixty days from the transfer of title and control. We have elected to account for shipping and handling costs as fulfillment costs after the customer obtains control of the goods. In addition, the company has one ongoing service contract which began in October 2017 which relates to optimized weapon system support (OWSS) and includes ongoing program maintenance, repairs and spare inventory support for the customer’s existing fleet units in service over a three-year period. Revenue recognition for this program has been recorded by the Company, and compensated by the customer, at fixed monthly increments over time, consistent with the defined contract maintenance period.

 

During the three months ended December 29, 2019 there was $3 thousand respectively of revenue recognized during the period from customer deposit liabilities (deferred contract revenue). As of December 29, 2019 there are no customer deposit liabilities. As of the three months ended December 29, 2019, there are no significant contract costs such as sales commissions or costs deferred.

 

Income Tax/Deferred Tax: As of December 29, 2019 Optex Systems, Inc. has a deferred tax asset valuation allowance of ($1.0) million against deferred tax assets of $2.3 million, as compared to a valuation allowance of ($1.0) million against deferred tax assets of $2.4 million as of September 29, 2019. The valuation allowance has been established due to historical losses resulting in a Net Operating Loss Carryforward for each of the fiscal years 2010 through 2019. During the three months ended December 29, 2019, our deferred tax assets decreased by ($0.1) million related current year tax adjustments for amortization expenses and an applied net operating loss carryforward.

 

 F-8 

 

 

Earnings per Share: Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available for common shareholders (the numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

 

A significant number of our outstanding warrants are participating securities which share dividend distributions and the allocation of any undistributed earnings (deemed dividends) with our common shareholders. During the three months ended December 29, 2019, there were no declared dividends and zero in allocated undistributed earnings attributable to the participating warrants due to the period net loss. During the three months ended December 30, 2018, declared dividends of $0 and $671 thousand was attributable to participating warrants.

 

The Company has potentially dilutive securities outstanding which include unvested restricted stock units, stock options and warrants. In computing the dilutive effect of convertible preferred stock, the numerator is adjusted to add back any deemed dividends on participating securities (warrants) and the denominator is increased to assume the conversion of the number of additional incremental common shares. The Company uses the Treasury Stock Method to compute the dilutive effect of any dilutive shares. Unvested restricted stock units, stock options and warrants that are anti-dilutive are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share.

 

For three months ended December 29, 2019, 4,125,200 warrants (which convert to 506,604 incremental shares for the three months) and 216,500 unvested restricted stock units (which converts to 114,605 incremental shares for the three months), were excluded in the diluted earnings per share calculation as antidilutive due to the period net loss. For the three months ended December 29, 2019, 99,000 unvested restricted stock units (which converts to 77,344 incremental dilutive shares for the three months) and 4,260,785 warrants (which converts to 83,545 incremental dilutive shares for the three months) were included in the diluted earnings per share calculation and 25,000 stock options were excluded from the earnings per share calculation as they were antidilutive.

 

Note 3 - Segment Reporting

 

The Company’s reportable segments are strategic businesses offering similar products to similar markets and customers; however, the companies are operated and managed separately due to differences in manufacturing technology, equipment, geographic location, and specific product mix. Applied Optics Center was acquired as a unit, and the management at the time of the acquisition was retained. Both the Applied Optics Center and Optex Systems – Richardson operate as reportable segments under the Optex Systems, Inc. corporate umbrella.

 

The Applied Optics Center segment also serves as the key supplier of laser coated filters used in the production of periscope assemblies for the Optex Systems-Richardson (“Optex Systems”) segment. Intersegment sales and transfers are accounted for at annually agreed to pricing rates based on estimated segment product cost, which includes segment direct manufacturing and general and administrative costs, but exclude profits that would apply to third party external customers.

Note 4 - Commitments and Contingencies

 

Non-cancellable Operating Leases

 

Optex Systems Holdings leases its office and manufacturing facilities for the Optex Systems, Inc., Richardson address and the Applied Optics Center Dallas address, as well as certain office equipment under non-cancellable operating leases.

 

The leased facility under Optex Systems Inc. at 1420 Presidential Drive, Richardson, Texas consists of 49,100 square feet of space and expires March 31, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of the most recent amendment to the Richardson site facilities lease, there was no base rent payment due from January 1, 2014 through March 31, 2014, with payments beginning April 2014. The monthly base rent was $23.0 thousand through March 31, 2019, and annual rental payment inflationary increases between 3.4% and 4.8% occurring April 1, each year. The monthly rent includes approximately $10.4 thousand for additional Common Area Maintenance (CAM) fees and taxes, to be adjusted annually based on actual expenses incurred by the landlord.

 

The leased facility under the Applied Optics Center at 9839 and 9827 Chartwell Drive, Dallas, Texas, consists of 44,867 square feet of space at the premises. On November 17, 2016, we received a countersigned new lease for the Applied Optics Center from the landlord, dated October 21, 2016, and which commenced retroactive to October 1, 2016. The new lease term will expire on October 31, 2021, with two renewal options available to the tenant, each with a renewal term duration of five years. The monthly base rent was $20.0 thousand through September 30, 2018 and escalates approximately 3% October 1, each year thereafter through 2021. The lease includes a one month base rent abatement for October 1 through October 31, 2016 for $19.4 thousand. The monthly rent includes approximately $6.4 thousand for additional CAM, to be adjusted annually based on actual expenses incurred by the landlord. Our obligations to make payments under the lease are secured by a $250,000 standby letter of credit which was reduced to $125,000 on October 31, 2019.

 

 F-11 

 

 

The Company has one non-cancellable office equipment lease with a commencement date of October 1, 2018 and a term of 39 months. The lease cost for the equipment is $1.5 thousand per month from October 1, 2018 through December 31, 2021.

 

Optex Systems Holdings adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 842 “Leases” as of the fiscal year beginning on September 30, 2019. Optex Systems Holdings has two significant operating facilities leases and one equipment lease which extends beyond twelve months and fall under the guidance of ASC Topic 842. Adoption of ASC Topic 842 resulted in the balance sheet recognition of a right-of-use asset of $1.7 million and corresponding operating lease liabilities of approximately $1.8 million, representing the present value of future lease payments for the term of the equipment lease and both segment facility leases and which assumes the exercise of a five year renewal option at the Applied Optics Center as of November 1, 2021.

 

Optex Systems Holdings elects to apply the short-term lease measurement and recognition exemption to office and machinery rentals with a duration of less than one year. During the three months ending December 29, 2019 there was only one short term forklift lease in that class with an expiration date of June 30, 2019. The short-term rental expenses during the three months ending December 29, 2019 were $1 thousand with a remaining lease obligation of $1.7 thousand as of the period end date.

 

As of December 29, 2019, the remaining minimum lease and estimated CAM payments under the non-cancelable office and facility space leases are as follows:

As of September 29, 2019, there was $83 thousand in unamortized deferred rent included in accrued liabilities which was reclassed to the right of use asset on adoption of ASC842.

 

Note 5 - Debt Financing

 

Credit Facility — Avidbank

 

As of December 29, 2019 and September 29, 2019, the outstanding principal balance on the line of credit was $600 thousand and $250 thousand, respectively. For the three months ended December 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018, the total interest expense against the outstanding line of credit balance was $5 thousand and $6 thousand, respectively.

 

The Company amended its revolving credit facility with Avidbank pursuant to a Seventh Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, dated as of April 5, 2018. The substantive amendments are as follows:

 

The new revolving maturity date is April 21, 2020.
   
On April 21, 2018 and each anniversary thereof for so long as the Revolving Facility is in effect, the Company shall pay a facility fee equal to one half of one percent (0.5%) of the Revolving Line.
   
The Company can maintain accounts at third party banks so long as the total in those other bank accounts does not exceed 20% of the total on deposit at Avidbank, and it shall remit to Avidbank monthly statements for all of those accounts within 30 days of the end of each month.

 

Note 6-Warrant Liabilities

 

On August 26, 2016, Optex Systems Holdings, Inc. issued 4,323,135 warrants to new shareholders and the underwriter, in connection with a public share offering. The warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.50 per share at any time on or after August 26, 2016 (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to the close of business on August 26, 2021 (the “Termination Date”). The Company determined that these warrants are free standing financial instruments that are legally detachable and separately exercisable from the common stock included in the public share offering. Management also determined that the warrants are puttable for cash upon a fundamental transaction at the option of the holder and as such required classification as a liability pursuant to ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. The Company has no plans to consummate a fundamental transaction and does not believe a fundamental transaction is likely to occur during the remaining term of the outstanding warrants. In accordance with the accounting guidance, the outstanding warrants are recognized as a warrant liability on the balance sheet and are measured at their inception date fair value and subsequently re-measured at each reporting period with changes being recorded as a component of other income in the consolidated statements of operations.

The fair value of the warrant liabilities presented below were measured using a Black Scholes Merton (BSM) valuation model. Significant inputs into the respective model at the reporting period measurement dates are as follows:

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

 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations

 

This MD&A is intended to supplement and complement our audited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2019 and our reviewed but unaudited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the quarter ended December 29, 2019, prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). You are encouraged to review our consolidated financial statements in conjunction with your review of this MD&A. The financial information in this MD&A has been prepared in accordance with GAAP, unless otherwise indicated. In addition, we use non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental indicators of our operating performance and financial position. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally for comparing actual results from one period to another, as well as for planning purposes. We will also report non-GAAP financial results as supplemental information, as we believe their use provides more insight into our performance. When non-GAAP measures are used in this MD&A, they are clearly identified as non-GAAP measures and reconciled to the most closely corresponding GAAP measure.

 

The following discussion highlights the principal factors that have affected our financial condition and results of operations as well as our liquidity and capital resources for the periods described. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. Please see “Special cautionary statement concerning forward-looking statements” and “Risk factors” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these forward-looking statements. The operating results for the periods presented were not significantly affected by inflation.

 

Background

 

Optex Systems, Inc. (Delaware) manufactures optical sighting systems and assemblies, primarily for Department of Defense applications. Its products are installed on various types of U.S. military land vehicles, such as the Abrams and Bradley fighting vehicles, light armored and armored security vehicles and have been selected for installation on the Stryker family of vehicles. Optex Systems, Inc. (Delaware) also manufactures and delivers numerous periscope configurations, rifle and surveillance sights and night vision optical assemblies. Optex Systems, Inc. (Delaware) products consist primarily of build-to-customer print products that are delivered both directly to the armed services and to other defense prime contractors. Less than 1% of today’s revenue is related to the resale of products substantially manufactured by others. In this case, the product would likely be a simple replacement part of a larger system previously produced by Optex Systems, Inc. (Delaware).

 

We are both a prime and sub-prime contractor to the Department of Defense. Sub-prime contracts are typically issued through major defense contractors such as General Dynamics Land Systems, Raytheon Corp., BAE, NorcaTec and others. We are also a military supplier to foreign governments such as Israel, Australia and NAMSA and South American countries and as a subcontractor for several large U.S. defense companies serving foreign governments.

 

By way of background, the Federal Acquisition Regulation is the principal set of regulations that govern the acquisition process of government agencies and contracts with the U.S. government. In general, parts of the Federal Acquisition Regulation are incorporated into government solicitations and contracts by reference as terms and conditions effecting contract awards and pricing solicitations.

 

Many of our contracts are prime or subcontracted directly with the Federal government and, as such, are subject to Federal Acquisition Regulation Subpart 49.5, “Contract Termination Clauses” and more specifically Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses 52.249-2 “Termination for Convenience of the Government Fixed-Price)”, and 49.504 “Termination of fixed-price contracts for default”. These clauses are standard clauses on our prime military contracts and generally apply to us as subcontractors. It has been our experience that the termination for convenience is rarely invoked, except where it is mutually beneficial for both parties. We are currently not aware of any pending terminations for convenience or for default on our existing contracts.

 

In the event a termination for convenience were to occur, Federal Acquisition Regulation clause 52.249-2 provides for full recovery of all contractual costs and profits reasonably occurred up to and as a result of the terminated contract. In the event a termination for default were to occur, we could be liable for any excess cost incurred by the government to acquire supplies from another supplier similar to those terminated from us. We would not be liable for any excess costs if the failure to perform the contract arises from causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Company as defined by Federal Acquisition Regulation clause 52.249-8.

 

 3 

 

 

In addition, some of our contracts allow for government contract financing in the form of contract progress payments pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation 52.232-16, “Progress Payments”. As a small business, and subject to certain limitations, this clause provides for government payment of up to 90% of incurred program costs prior to product delivery. To the extent our contracts allow for progress payments, we intend to utilize this benefit, thereby minimizing the working capital impact on Optex Systems Holdings for materials and labor required to complete the contracts.

Results of Operations

 

Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA

 

We use adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) as an additional measure for evaluating the performance of our business as “net income” includes the significant impact of noncash valuation gains and losses on warrant liabilities, noncash compensation expenses related to equity stock issues, as well as depreciation, amortization, interest expenses and federal income taxes. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful indicator of our operating performance because it permits period-over-period comparisons of our ongoing core operations before the excluded items. Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

 

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations and should not be considered in isolation or a substitute for performance measures calculated under GAAP. This non-GAAP measure excludes certain cash expenses that we are obligated to make. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do or may not calculate it at all, which limits the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA as a comparative measure.

 

The table below summarizes our three-month operating results for the three-month periods ended December 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018, in terms of both the GAAP net income measure and the non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA measure. We believe that including both measures allows the reader to have a “complete picture” of our overall performance.

Our adjusted EBITDA decreased by $19 thousand to $810 thousand during the three months ended December 29, 2019 as compared to $829 thousand during the three months ended December 30, 2018. The reduction in the three-month EBITDA from the prior year three-month period is primarily driven by increased general and administrative expenses (excluding non-cash EBITDA adjustments) during the three-month period as compared to the prior year. Operating segment performance is discussed in greater detail throughout the following sections.

 

During the three months ended December 29, 2019, we recognized a loss on the change in fair value of warrants of $1.3 million as compared to a gain of $1.4 million in the prior year three-month period. As this is a non-cash (gain) loss driven by the current fair market value of our outstanding warrants and unrelated to our core business operating performance, the change in fair value losses and gains have historically been excluded from our adjusted EBITDA calculations presented above. Further discussion regarding the changes in fair value of the warrants and the related warrant liability can be found under “Other Income (Expense)” in the three-months comparative narratives of this report, as well as in Item 1, “Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 6 - Warrant Liabilities”.

Segment Information

 

We have presented the operating results by segment to provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate our operating results and to have a better understanding of the overall performance of each business segment and its ability to perform in subsequent periods. Management of Optex Systems Holdings uses the selected financial measures by segment internally to evaluate its ongoing segment operations and to allocate resources within the organization accordingly. Segments are determined based on differences in products, location, internal reporting and how operational decisions are made. Management has determined that the Optex Systems, Richardson plant and the Applied Optics Center, Dallas plant are separately managed, organized, and internally reported as separate business segments. The table below provides a summary of selective statement of operations data by operating segment for the three months ended December 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018 reconciled to the Condenses Consolidated Results of Operations as presented in Item 1, “Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.”

Our total revenues decreased by $4 thousand or (0.0%) during the three months ended December 29, 2019 as compared to the three months ended December 30, 2018. Decreased revenues during the three months were driven by decreased revenue of ($186) thousand at the Optex Richardson segment offset by an increase of $182 thousand for the Applied Optics Center. The Optex Richardson revenue decrease is primarily attributable to lower revenue on our sighting systems during the current quarter due to the completion of the DDAN spare order contracts during the first quarter of 2019. The Applied Optics increase in revenue is directly attributable to deliveries against a new 24mm laser filter unit and ARD assembly order which did not occur in the prior year period. Current quarter Intersegment revenues are above the prior year by $42 thousand due to lower periscope shipments in the current fiscal year period as compared to the prior year period. Intersegment revenues relate primarily to coated filters provided by the Applied Optics Center to Optex Richardson in support of the Optex Systems periscope line.

 

Consolidated gross margin and the gross margin percentages increased during the three months ending December 29, 2019 as compared to the prior year period. Total gross margin increased by $24 thousand, and 0.4% to 24.9% from 24.5% of revenue due to changes in product mix. The Optex Richardson gross margin increased by $93 thousand or 11.5%, from 21.1% to 24.7% of revenue. The increase in gross margin for Optex Richardson during the period as compared to the prior year period was driven by increased revenue and changes in product mix as compared to the prior year period. The Applied Optic Center gross margin decreased by ($69) thousand or (10.8%) from the prior year period, from 25.7% to 21.7% of revenue. The decrease in Applied Optics Center margin is primarily driven by increased warranty expenses on our commercial optical assemblies of $50 thousand over the prior year period and changes in revenue mix. The prior year warranty expense included a favorable adjustment of $50 thousand due lower than estimated costs on warranty backlog repairs.

During the three months ending December 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018, the Applied Optics Center absorbed $170 thousand of fixed general and administrative costs incurred by Optex Systems for support services. These expenses cover accounting, executive, human resources, information technology, board fees and other corporate expenses paid by Optex Systems and shared across both operating segments.

 

Our operating income increased by $18 thousand in the three months ending December 29, 2019, to $718 thousand, as compared to the prior year period operating income of $700 thousand. Increased operating income was primarily attributable to the increase in consolidated gross margin of $24 thousand, offset by increased general and administrative costs of $6 thousand.

 

Backlog

 

Backlog as of December 29, 2019, was $22.0 million as compared to a backlog of $24.6 million as of September 29, 2019, representing a decrease of ($2.6) million or (10.6%). During the three months ended December 29, 2019, the Company booked $3.2 million in new orders as compared to $5.7 million in the prior year period. We attribute the $2.5 million decrease in orders to the timing of contract awards and purchase orders from our customers. In January, 2020, Optex announced an order for $1.1 million and two new IDIQ government contract awards for periscopes for a combined total up to $5.9 million over a five-year period. IDIQ contract awards are reflected in backlog only to the extent that individual task orders have been released by the customer pursuant to contract pricing and agreed delivery schedules.

Optex Systems - Richardson:

 

During the three months ended December 29, 2019, backlog for the Optex Systems Richardson segment decreased by $0.8 million, or 4.4%, to $17.5 million from the fiscal year-end backlog of $18.3 million. The decreased backlog was primarily driven by decreases of $1.0 million, or 25.6% in the other product group and $0.1 million in sighting systems, offset by increases in periscopes of $0.3 million or 2.9%. Our decrease in “other” backlog is primarily driven by shipments of collimator assemblies against two of our long running MRS programs.

 

During the three months ended December 29, 2019 we booked new periscope orders of $2.6 million, representing a 36.6% decrease of $1.5 million over the $4.1 million in periscope orders booked during the prior year three months ended December 30, 2018. The prior year quarter included a $2.0 million order for Integrated Combat Weapon System (ICWS) glass periscopes deliverable in 2020. We received an additional IDIQ contract award for ICWS units from the US government on December 3, 2019 and anticipate task order awards against this contract during the next three months. We anticipate additional periscope contracts in addition to task order awards against our existing IDIQ contracts for delivery in 2020 and beyond.

We booked new orders of $0.3 million in other product lines during the three months ended December 29, 2019 compared to the prior year levels of $1.3 million, consisting of $0.4 million and $0.9 million in sighting systems and other product lines, respectively.

 

We anticipate our revenue to be heavily generated in the third fiscal quarter of the current fiscal year as we begin shipments in late March through June, 2020 against a November 2018 ICWS contract award.

 

Applied Optics Center – Dallas

 

During the three months ended December 29, 2019, the Applied Optics Center backlog decreased by 28.6%, or $1.8 million, to $4.5 million from the fiscal year end level of $6.3 million. New orders for our Applied Optics Center were $0.3 million in the three months ended December 29, 2019 as compared to $0.3 million in the prior year three-month period. In January, 2020 we announced a new order for the Applied Optics Center of $1.1 million for commercial optical assemblies which will be delivered from April 2020 through December 2020. We anticipate new order bookings during the next three months for deliveries in the third and fourth fiscal quarters of 2020 and beyond.

 

The Company continues to aggressively pursue international and commercial opportunities in addition to maintaining its current footprint with U.S. vehicle manufactures, with existing as well as new product lines. We continue exploring new market opportunities for our M17 day/thermal periscopes and digital optics for commercial applications. We are also reviewing potential products, outside our traditional product lines, which could be manufactured using our current production facilities in order to capitalize on our existing excess capacity. Further, we continue to look for strategic businesses to acquire that will strengthen our existing product line, expand our operations, and enter new markets both domestically and internationally, but no such transaction is currently under consideration.

 

Three Months Ended December 29, 2019 Compared to the Three Months Ended December 30, 2018

 

Revenues. In the three months ended December 29, 2019, revenues decreased by $4 thousand or 0.1% from the respective prior period in fiscal year 2018 as set forth in the table below:

 

   Three months ended     
   (Thousands)     
Product Line  December 29, 2019   December 30, 2018   Variance   % Chg 
Periscopes  $2,297   $2,540   $(243)   (9.6)
Sighting Systems   133    721    (588)   (81.6)
Other   1,214    569    645    113.4

Applied Optics Center – Dallas   2,243    2,061    182    8.8 
Total Revenue  $5,887   $5,891    (4)   (0.1)

 

Revenues on our periscope line decreased by $243 thousand or 9.6% during the three months ended December 29, 2019 as compared to the three months ended December 30, 2018 primarily due to a shift in product mix towards lower priced periscope types between the two periods.

 

Sighting Systems revenues for the three months ending December 29, 2019 decreased by $588 thousand or 81.6% from revenues in the prior year period due to completion of the previous DDAN sighting system contract in the first quarter of 2019.

 

Other product revenues increased by $645 thousand, or 113.4%, to $1.2 million during the three months ending December 29, 2019 as compared to $569 thousand in the prior year period primarily due to increased deliveries against MRS collimators and objective lens cell assemblies against our existing orders.

 

 9 

 

 

Applied Optics Center revenue increased $182 thousand or 8.8% during the three months ended December 29, 2019 as compared to the three months ended December 30, 2018 primarily due to increased deliveries against laser filter unit (LFU) assemblies and Day Windows, offset with decreases in deliveries on military laser filters and commercial optical assemblies.

 

Gross Margin. The gross margin during the three-month period ending December 29, 2019 was 24.9% of revenue as compared to a gross margin of 24.5% of revenue for the period ending December 30, 2018. Cost of sales decreased to $4.42 million for the current period as compared to the prior year period of $4.45 million on lower revenues of $4 thousand. The gross margin increased by $24 thousand in the current year period to $1.467 million as compared to the prior year period of $1.443 million. We attribute the increase in gross margin changes in product mix between the respective periods.

 

G&A Expenses. During the three months ended December 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018, we recorded operating expenses of $749 thousand and $743 thousand, respectively.

 

Operating Income. During the three months ended December 29, 2019, we recorded an operating income of $718 thousand, as compared to operating income of $700 thousand during the three months ended December 30, 2018. The $18 thousand increase in operating income in the current year period over the prior year period is primarily due to higher gross margin, offset by a slight increase in general and administrative spending in the current year quarter as compared to the prior year quarter.

 

Other Income (Expense). During the three months ended December 29, 2019, we recognized a $1.25 million loss on change in the fair value of warrants as compared to a $1.39 million gain in three months ending December 30, 2018. The current period loss in the fair value of warrants is primarily attributable to changes in the common stock volatility, US treasury rates, stock price and remaining warrant term from the prior December 30th end. Additional information related to the change in valuation is discussed under Item 1, “Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 6 – Warrant Liability”.

 

Net (Loss) Income applicable to common shareholders. During the three months ended December 29, 2019, we recorded a net loss applicable to common shareholders of ($0.7) million as compared to a net income applicable to common shareholders of $1.4 million during the three months ended December 30, 2018. The decrease in net income of $2.6 million is primarily attributable to changes in the fair value of warrants of $2.6 million between the respective periods.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Optex Systems Holdings adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 842 “Leases” as of the fiscal year beginning on September 30, 2019. Optex Systems Holdings has two significant operating facilities leases and one equipment lease which extends beyond twelve months and fall under the guidance of ASC Topic 842. Adoption of ASC Topic 842 resulted in the balance sheet recognition of a right-of-use asset of $1.7 million and corresponding operating lease liabilities of approximately $1.8 million, representing the present value of future lease payments for the term of the equipment lease and both segment facility leases and which assumes the exercise of a five year renewal option at the Applied Optics Center as of November 1, 2021.

 

As of December 29, 2019, the Company had working capital of $11.9 million, as compared to $11.7 million as of September 29, 2019. Adoption of the new ASC 842 Lease guidance as of the beginning of the three-month period ending December 29, 2019, reduced the calculation of working capital by $0.6 million for the short-term portion of the operating lease liability. During the three months ended December 29, 2019, the Company generated operating income of $718 thousand as compared to operating income of $700 thousand on a slight $4 thousand decrease in revenues of $5.9 million for the three-month periods ending December 29, 2019 and December 30, 2018. The Company’s adjusted EBITDA decreased by $19 thousand during the three months ended December 29, 2019 to $810 thousand from $829 thousand during the three months ended December 30, 2018. Backlog as of December 29, 2019 has decreased by ($2.6) million or (10.6%) to $22.0 million as compared to backlog of $24.6 million as of December 30, 2018, although we anticipate our orders for the next nine months to meet or exceed the prior year levels.

During the prior two years, the Company has seen significant increases in new orders and revenue growth primarily in the U.S. military products. We attribute the higher demand to increases in the U.S. military procurement budgets which were approved for the fiscal years 2018 through 2020 National Defense Authorization Acts (NDAA). We believe that the procurement budget increases in the federal government’s 2020 NDAA combined with the lifting of the 2011 budget sequestration cap on defense spending levels are favorable to the Company for its U.S. military products during the next twelve months. Significant increases in orders could cause a strain on our working capital as we purchase additional inventories and ramp up production personnel required to meet the higher production schedules.

 

The Company has historically funded its operations through working capital, convertible notes, preferred stock offerings and bank debt. The Company’s ability to generate positive cash flows depends on a variety of factors, including the continued development and successful marketing of the Company’s products. At December 29, 2019, the Company had approximately $1.7 million in cash and an outstanding payable balance of $0.6 million against our working line of credit. The line of credit allows for borrowing up to a maximum of $2.2 million, which fluctuates based on our open accounts receivable balance. As of December 29, 2019, our outstanding accounts receivable was $2.7 million. The Company expects to incur net income, increased adjusted EBITDA and positive cash flow from operating activities throughout 2020 on revenue growth and increased product gross margins. The Company expects to generate net income and positive cash flow from operating activities over the next nine months on higher projected revenue growth and contribution toward fixed costs, combined with increased gross margins for existing and planned productivity and cost efficiency improvements. Successful transition to attaining and maintaining profitable operations is dependent upon maintaining a level of revenue adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. We began fiscal year 2020 with a strong backlog on increased customer orders and multiyear contracts, primarily in our defense products. Management intends to manage operations commensurate with its level of working capital and facilities line of credit during the next twelve months; however, uneven revenue levels driven by changes in customer delivery demands, first article inspection requirements or other program delays combined with increasing inventory and production costs required to support the increases in backlog could create a working capital shortfall. In the event the Company does not successfully implement its ultimate business plan, certain assets may not be recoverable.

 

In 2018 the Board of Directors approved two separate purchases 200,000 shares and 500,000 shares of its common stock in two separate private transactions for $1.00 per share each for a total of $700,000. All of the stock repurchases have been returned to the treasury and cancelled.

 

As of September 29, 2019 and December 29, 2019 there are no outstanding declared and unpaid dividends.

 

In June 2019, the Board of Directors approved the repurchase and subsequent cancellation of 88,081 its outstanding investor warrants in a private transaction for $0.85 per warrant for a total of $74,869.

 

Cash Flows for the Period from September 29, 2019 through December 29, 2019

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents: As of December 29, 2019 and September 29, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1.7 and $1.2 million, representing a net increase of $0.5 million.

 

Net Cash Provided by in Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months from September 29, 2019 to December 29, 2019 totaled $294 thousand. The primary sources of cash during the period relate operating profit of $0.7 million and collections against accounts receivable of $0.4 million, offset primarily by increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $0.9 million and other working capital changes of $0.1 million.

 

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities. In the three months ended December 29, 2019, cash used in investing activities was $29 thousand for purchases of equipment.

 

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities. Net provided by financing activities was $0.4 million during the three months ended December 29, 2019 and relate to borrowing against the revolving credit facility.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 29, 2019, management performed, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the report we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management including our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
