Note 1 - Organization and Operations

 

Optex Systems Holdings’ operations are based in Dallas and Richardson, Texas in leased facilities comprising approximately 93,733 square feet. As of December 27, 2015, Optex Systems Holdings operated with 85 full-time equivalent employees.

 

Optex Systems Holdings manufactures optical sighting systems and assemblies, primarily for Department of Defense and foreign military applications. 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. Optex Systems Holdings 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. Optex Systems Holdings is an ISO 9001:2008 certified company. On November 3, 2014, Optex Systems, Inc. purchased the assets comprising the Applied Optics Products Line of L-3 Communications, Inc. (“L-3”), a thin film coating manufacturer for lenses used primarily in the defense industry.

 

U.S. military spending has been significantly reduced as a result of the Congressional sequestration cuts to defense spending, which began in fiscal year 2013. As a result of lower U.S. government spending, we have continued to explore other opportunities for manufacturing outside of our traditional product lines for products which could be manufactured using our existing lines in order to fully utilize our existing capacity. Further, we continue to look for additional strategic businesses to acquire that will strengthen our existing product line, expand our operations and enter new markets.

 

On October 7, 2015, we effected a 1:1000 reverse split of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock and all share numbers in these consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to give effect to this reverse split.
