NAPCO SECURITY TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
SEPTEMBER 30, 2013

NOTE 1 - Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business:

Napco Security Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") is a diversified manufacturer of security products, encompassing electronic door-locking devices, intrusion and fire alarms and building access control systems. These products are used for commercial, residential, institutional, industrial and governmental applications, and are sold worldwide principally to independent distributors, dealers and installers of security equipment.

The Company's fiscal year begins on July 1 and ends on June 30. Historically, the end users of the Company's products want to install its products prior to the summer; therefore sales of its products historically peak in the period April 1 through June 30, the Company's fiscal fourth quarter, and are reduced in the period July 1 through September 30, the Company's fiscal first quarter. In addition, demand is affected by the housing and construction markets.

Significant Accounting Policies:

Basis of Presentation
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Napco Security Technologies, Inc and Subsidiaries (the “Company”), including these notes, have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted or condensed. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2013 and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on September 17, 2013. Results of consolidated operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full year’s operating results. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements herein include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
 
Accounting 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 the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent gains and losses at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Critical estimates include management's judgments associated with revenue recognition, reserves for sales returns and allowances, concentration of credit risk, inventories, intangible assets and income taxes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the following classes of financial instruments were: Current Assets and Current Liabilities: The carrying amount of cash, certificates of deposits, current receivables and payables and certain other short-term financial instruments approximate their fair value as of September 30, 2013 due to their short-term maturities; Long-Term Debt: The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term debt, including the current portion, at September 30, 2013 in the amount of $13,500,000 approximates fair value.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include approximately $460,000 of short-term time deposits at September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013.  The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The Company has cash balances in banks in excess of the maximum amount insured by the FDIC and other international agencies as of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013. The Company has historically not experienced any credit losses with balances in excess of FDIC limits.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable is stated net of the reserves for doubtful accounts of $230,000 and $220,000 and for returns and other allowances of $815,000 and $1,055,000 as of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively.  Our reserves for doubtful accounts and for returns and other allowances are subjective critical estimates that have a direct impact on reported net earnings. These reserves are based upon the evaluation of accounts receivable agings, specific exposures, sales levels and historical trends.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or fair market value, with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The reported net value of inventory includes finished saleable products, work-in-process and raw materials that will be sold or used in future periods. Inventory costs include raw materials, direct labor and overhead. The Company’s overhead expenses are applied based, in part, upon estimates of the proportion of those expenses that are related to procuring and storing raw materials as compared to the manufacture and assembly of finished products. These proportions, the method of their application, and the resulting overhead included in ending inventory, are based in part on subjective estimates and actual results could differ from those estimates.

In addition, the Company records an inventory obsolescence reserve, which represents any excess of the cost of the inventory over its estimated market value, based on various product sales projections. This reserve is calculated using an estimated obsolescence percentage applied to the inventory based on age, historical trends, requirements to support forecasted sales, and the ability to find alternate applications of its raw materials and to convert finished product into alternate versions of the same product to better match customer demand.  In addition, and as necessary, the Company may establish specific reserves for future known or anticipated events. There is inherent professional judgment and subjectivity made by both production and engineering members of management in determining the estimated obsolescence percentage.

The Company also regularly reviews the period over which its inventories will be converted to sales. Any inventories expected to convert to sales beyond 12 months from the balance sheet date are classified as non-current.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; costs of major renewals and improvements are capitalized. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the asset and accumulated depreciation accounts and the profit or loss on such disposition is reflected in income.

Depreciation is recorded over the estimated service lives of the related assets using primarily the straight-line method.  Amortization of leasehold improvements is calculated by using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset or lease term, whichever is shorter.

Intangible Assets
 
Intangible assets determined to have indefinite lives are not amortized but are tested for impairment at least annually. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their useful lives. Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at least annually at the Company’s fiscal year end of June 30 or more often whenever there is an indication that the carrying amount may not be recovered.

The Company’s acquisition of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of G. Marks Hardware Inc. (“Marks USA”) in August 2008 included intangible assets recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition. The intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives of twenty years (customer relationships) and seven years (non-compete agreement). The Marks USA trade name was deemed to have an indefinite life.

Amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortization was approximately $195,000 and $230,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Amortization expense for each of the next five fiscal years is estimated to be as follows: 2014 - $781,000; 2015 - $667,000; 2016 - $529,000; 2017 - $441,000 and 2018 - $371,000. The weighted average amortization period for intangible assets was 14.6 years and 15.5 years at September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets in question may not be recoverable. Impairment would be recorded in circumstances where undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset are less than the carrying value of that asset.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, (ii) there is a fixed and determinable price for the Company's product, (iii) shipment and passage of title occurs, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Revenues from product sales are recorded at the time the product is shipped or delivered to the customer pursuant to the terms of the sale. The Company reports its sales on a net sales basis, with net sales being computed by deducting from gross sales the amount of actual sales returns and other allowances and the amount of reserves established for anticipated sales returns and other allowances.

Sales Returns and Other Allowances

The Company analyzes sales returns and is able to make reasonable and reliable estimates of product returns based on the Company’s past history. Estimates for sales returns are based on several factors including actual returns and based on expected return data communicated to it by its customers. Accordingly, the Company believes that its historical returns analysis is an accurate basis for its allowance for sales returns. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Advertising and Promotional Costs

Advertising and promotional costs are included in "Selling, General and Administrative" expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and are expensed as incurred.  Advertising expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $365,000 and $427,000, respectively.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs incurred by the Company are charged to expense in the year incurred and are included in "Cost of Sales" in the consolidated statements of operations.  Company-sponsored research and development expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $1,286,000 and $1,336,000, respectively.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company measures and recognizes the tax implications of positions taken or expected to be taken in its tax returns on an ongoing basis.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share (Basic EPS) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted net income (loss) per common share (Diluted EPS) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents and convertible securities then outstanding.

Options to purchase 268,116 and 1,383,140 shares of common stock for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were not included in the computation of Diluted EPS because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.  These options were still outstanding at the end of the respective periods.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has established share incentive programs as discussed in Note 7.

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Determining the fair value of share-based awards at the grant date requires assumptions and judgments about expected volatility and forfeiture rates, among other factors.

Stock-based compensation costs of $1 and $0 were recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
Foreign Currency

All assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. Dollars at fiscal period-end exchange rates.  Income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the fiscal year.  The realized and unrealized gains and losses associated with foreign currency translation, as well as related other comprehensive income, were not material for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Comprehensive Income

For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company's operations did not give rise to material items includable in comprehensive income, which were not already included in net income.  Accordingly, the Company's comprehensive income approximates its net income for all periods presented.

Segment Reporting

The Company’s reportable operating segments are determined based on the Company's management approach.  The management approach is based on the way that the chief operating decision maker organizes the segments within an enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing performance. The Company's results of operations are reviewed by the chief operating decision maker on a consolidated basis and the Company operates in only one segment.  The Company has presented required geographical data in Note 11, and no additional segment data has been presented.

Shipping and Handling Revenues and Costs

The Company records the amount billed to customers in net sales ($131,000 and $121,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively) and classifies the costs associated with these revenues in cost of sales ($242,000 and $223,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively).

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
 
In July 2013, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward.  If either (i) an NOL carryforward, a similar tax loss, or tax credit carryforward is not available as of the reporting date under the governing tax law to settle taxes that would result from the disallowance of the tax position or (ii) the entity does not intend to use the deferred tax asset for this purpose (provided that the tax law permits a choice), an entity should present an unrecognized tax benefit in the financial statements as a liability and should not net the unrecognized tax benefit with a deferred tax asset.  This guidance becomes effective prospectively for unrecognized tax benefits that exist as of the Company’s fiscal 2015 first quarter, with retrospective application and early adoption permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the timing of adoption and the impact of this balance sheet presentation guidance but does not expect it to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB amended its authoritative guidance related to testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment.  Under the revised guidance, entities testing their indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment have the option of performing a qualitative assessment before performing further impairment testing.  If entities determine, on the basis of qualitative factors, that it is more-likely-than-not that the asset is impaired, a quantitative test is required.  The guidance became effective in the beginning of the Company’s fiscal 2014.  The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 - Business and Credit Concentrations

The Company had two customers with accounts receivable balances that aggregated 28% and 22% of the Company’s accounts receivable at September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. Sales to any one customer did not exceed 10% of net sales in any of the past two fiscal years.

NOTE 3 - Inventories

Inventories, net of reserves are valued at lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. The Company regularly reviews parts and finished goods inventories on hand and, when necessary, records a provision for excess or obsolete inventories. The Company also regularly reviews the period over which its inventories will be converted to sales. Any inventories expected to convert to sales beyond 12 months from the balance sheet date are classified as non-current.

Inventories, net of reserves consist of the following (in thousands):

NOTE 5 - Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes represents Federal, foreign, and state and local income taxes. The effective rate differs from statutory rates due to the effect of state and local income taxes, tax rates in foreign jurisdictions, tax benefit of R&D credits and certain nondeductible expenses. Our effective tax rate will change from quarter to quarter based on recurring and non-recurring factors including, but not limited to, the geographical mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation, and state and local income taxes. In addition, changes in judgment from the evaluation of new information resulting in the recognition, de-recognition or re-measurement of a tax position taken in a prior annual period are recognized separately in the quarter of the change.
 
The Company does not expect that our unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change within the next twelve months. We file a consolidated U.S. income tax return and tax returns in certain state and local and foreign jurisdictions. As of September 30, 2013 we remain subject to examination in all tax jurisdictions for all relevant jurisdictional statutes for fiscal years 2008 and thereafter.
 
The Company has identified its U.S. Federal income tax return and its State return in New York as its major tax jurisdictions. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 the Company increased its reserve for uncertain income tax positions by $4,000. As a result, as of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013 the Company has a long-term accrued income tax liability of $157,000 and $153,000, respectively.
 
NOTE 6 - Long-Term Debt

As of September 30, 2013, long-term debt consisted of a revolving credit facility of $11,000,000 (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) which expires in June 2017 and two term loans, one for $6,000,000 which expires in June 2019, and one for $6,500,000 which expires in June 2017 (the “Term Loans”). Repayment of the Terms Loans commenced on September 30, 2012. The $6,000,000 Term Loan is being repaid with 28 equal, quarterly payments of $75,000 and the remaining balance of $3,900,000 due on or before the expiration date. The $6,500,000 Term Loan is being repaid in 20 equal, quarterly payments of $325,000.

Outstanding balances and interest rates as of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013 are as follows:

   
September 30, 2013

The Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loans (collectively the “Agreement”) also provide for a LIBOR-based interest rate option of LIBOR plus 2.0% to 2.75%, depending on the ratio of outstanding debt to EBITDA, which is to be measured and adjusted quarterly, a prime rate-based option of the prime rate plus 0.25% and other terms and conditions as more fully described in the Agreement. In addition, the Agreement provides for availability under the Revolving Credit Facility to be limited to the lesser of $11,000,000 or the result of a borrowing base formula based upon the Company’s Accounts Receivables and Inventory values net of certain deductions. The Company’s obligations under the Agreement continue to be secured by all of its assets, including but not limited to, deposit accounts, accounts receivable, inventory, the Company’s corporate headquarters in Amityville, NY, equipment and fixtures and intangible assets. In addition, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, with the exception of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, have issued guarantees and pledges of all of their assets to secure the Company’s obligations under the Agreement. All of the outstanding common stock of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the common stock of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries has been pledged to secure the Company’s obligations under the Agreement.

The Agreement contains various restrictions and covenants including, among others, restrictions on payment of dividends, restrictions on borrowings and compliance with certain financial ratios, as defined in the Agreement.

NOTE 7 - Stock Options

In December 2012, the stockholders approved the 2012 Employee Stock Option Plan (the 2012 Employee Plan).  The 2012 Employee Plan authorizes the granting of awards, the exercise of which would allow up to an aggregate of 950,000 shares of the Company's common stock to be acquired by the holders of such awards.  Under this plan, the Company may grant stock options, which are intended to qualify as incentive stock options (ISOs), to valued employees.  Any plan participant who is granted ISOs and possesses more than 10% of the voting rights of the Company's outstanding common stock must be granted an option with a price of at least 110% of the fair market value on the date of grant.

Under the 2012 Employee Plan, stock options may be granted to valued employees with a term of up to 10 years at an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value on the date of grant and are exercisable in whole or in part at 20% per year beginning on the date of grant. An option granted under this plan shall vest in full upon a “change in control” as defined in the plan. At September 30, 2013, 35,000 stock options were granted, 7,000 stock options were exercisable and 915,000 stock options were available for grant under this plan.
 
The fair value of each option granted during fiscal 2014 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
 
  Risk-free interest rates 2.7%
  Expected lives 10 years
  Expected volatility 57%
  Expected dividend yields 0%

As of September 30, 2013, there was $114,000 of unearned stock-based compensation cost related to share-based compensation arrangements granted under the 2012 Employee Plan. The total fair value of the options vested during the three months ended September 30, 2013 under this plan was $2,000.

In December 2012, the stockholders approved the 2012 Non-Employee Stock Option Plan (the 2012 Non-Employee Plan).  This plan authorizes the granting of awards, the exercise of which would allow up to an aggregate of 50,000 shares of the Company's common stock to be acquired by the holders of such awards.  Under this plan, the Company may grant stock options to non-employee directors and consultants to the Company and its subsidiaries.

Under the 2012 Non-Employee Plan, stock options may be granted with a term of up to 10 years at an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value on the date of grant and are exercisable in whole or in part at 20% per year beginning on the date of grant. An option granted under this plan shall vest in full upon a “change in control” as defined in the plan. At September 30, 2013, 25,000 stock options were granted, 5,000 stock options were exercisable and 25,000 stock options were available for grant under this plan.

In December 2002, the stockholders approved the 2002 Employee Stock Option Plan (the 2002 Employee Plan).  This plan expired in October 2012. This plan authorized the granting of awards, the exercise of which would allow up to an aggregate of 1,836,000 shares of the Company's common stock to be acquired by the holders of such awards.  Under this plan, the Company may have granted stock options, which were intended to qualify as incentive stock options (ISOs), to key employees.  Any plan participant who was granted ISOs and possessed more than 10% of the voting rights of the Company's outstanding common stock must have been granted an option with a price of at least 110% of the fair market value on the date of grant.

Under the 2002 Employee Plan, stock options have been granted to key employees with a term of 10 years at an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant and are exercisable in whole or in part at 20% per year from the date of grant.  At September 30, 2013, 1,471,480 stock options were granted, 294,100 stock options were exercisable and no further stock options were available for grant under this plan.

NOTE 8 – Stockholders’ Equity Transactions

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, certain employees exercised incentive stock options under the Company’s 2002 Plan totaling 326,800 shares. 324,100 of these exercises were completed as cashless exercises as allowed for under the 2002 Plan, where the exercise shares are issued by the Company in exchange for shares of the Company’s common stock that are owned by the optionees.
 
 
15

 
 
The number of shares surrendered by the optionees are based upon the per share price on the effective date of the option exercise. In addition, the Company repurchased 50,000 shares of its Common Stock from its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The purchase price was $5.70 per share, the previous business day’s closing price on NASDAQ, for an aggregate purchase price of $285,000. The repurchase was to fund the CEO’s tax liability associated with the exercise of 135,000 options granted to him under the 2002 Plan. The repurchase was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, including all of the independent directors.
 
NOTE 9 - 401(k) Plan

The Company maintains a 401(k) plan (“the Plan”) that covers all U.S. non-union employees with one or more years of service and is qualified under Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Company contributions to this plan are discretionary and totaled $25,000 and $22,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

NOTE 10 - Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

The Company is committed under various operating leases, not including the land lease discussed below, which do not extend beyond fiscal 2016.

Rent expense, with the exception of the land lease referred to below, totaled approximately $9,000 and $13,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Land Lease

On April 26, 1993, one of the Company's foreign subsidiaries entered into a 99 year lease, expiring in 2092, for approximately four acres of land in the Dominican Republic at an annual cost of $288,000, on which the Company's principal production facility is located.

Litigation

In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to claims and/or litigation. Management believes that the settlement of such claims and/or litigation, considered in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position and results of operations.

Employment Agreements

As of June 30, 2013, the Company was obligated under two employment agreements and one severance agreement.  The employment agreements are with the Company’s CEO and Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing (“the SVP”). The employment agreement with the CEO provides for an annual salary of $587,000, as adjusted for inflation; incentive compensation as may be approved by the Board of Directors from time to time and a termination payment in an amount up to 299% of the average of the prior five calendar year's compensation, subject to certain limitations, as defined in the agreement.  The employment agreement renews annually in August unless either party gives the other notice of non-renewal at least six months prior to the end of the applicable term. The employment agreement with the SVP expires in October 2014 and provides for an annual salary of $274,400 and, if terminated by the Company without cause, severance of nine months’ salary and continued company-sponsored health insurance for six months from the date of termination. The severance agreement provides for payments equal to nine months of salary and six months of health insurance in the event of a non-voluntary termination of employment without cause.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the information incorporated by reference may include "Forward-Looking Statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934. The Company intends the Forward-Looking Statements to be covered by the Safe Harbor Provisions for Forward-Looking Statements. All statements regarding the Company's expected financial position and operating results, its business strategy, its financing plans and the outcome of any contingencies are Forward-Looking Statements. The Forward-Looking Statements are based on current estimates and projections about our industry and our business. Words such as "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," or variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such Forward-Looking Statements. The Forward-Looking Statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth or implied by any Forward-Looking Statements.  For example, the Company is highly dependent on its Chief Executive Officer for strategic planning. If he is unable to perform his services for any significant period of time, the Company's ability to grow could be adversely affected. In addition, factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Forward-Looking Statements include, but are not limited to, the uncertain economic, military and political conditions in the world, the ability to maintain adequate financing, our ability to maintain and develop competitive products, adverse tax consequences of offshore operations, significant fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Dominican Peso and the U.S. Dollar, distribution problems, and unforeseen environmental liabilities.

Overview
 
The Company is a diversified manufacturer of security products, encompassing electronic locking devices, intrusion and fire alarms and building access control systems. These products are used for commercial, residential, institutional, industrial and governmental applications, and are sold worldwide principally to independent distributors, dealers and installers of security equipment. International sales accounted for approximately 6% of our revenues for both of the three month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

The Company owns and operates manufacturing facilities in Amityville, New York and the Dominican Republic. A significant portion of our operating costs are fixed, and do not fluctuate with changes in production levels or utilization of our manufacturing capacity. As production levels rise and factory utilization increases, the fixed costs are spread over increased output, which should improve profit margins. Conversely, when production levels decline our fixed costs are spread over reduced levels, thereby decreasing margins.

The security products market is characterized by constant incremental innovation in product design and manufacturing technologies. Generally, the Company devotes 6-8% of revenues to research and development (R&D) on an annual basis. The Company does not expect products resulting from our R&D investments in fiscal 2014 to contribute materially to revenue during this fiscal year, but should benefit the Company over future years. In general, the new products introduced by the Company are initially shipped in limited quantities, and increase over time. Prices and manufacturing costs tend to decline over time as products and technologies mature.

Economic and Other Factors

We are subject to the effects of general economic and market conditions. In the event that the U.S. or international economic conditions deteriorate, our revenue, profit and cash-flow levels could be materially adversely affected in future periods. In the event of such deterioration, many of our current or potential future customers may experience serious cash flow problems and as a result may, modify, delay or cancel purchases of our products. Additionally, customers may not be able to pay, or may delay payment of, accounts receivable that are owed to us. If such events do occur, they may result in our expenses being too high in relation to our revenues and cash flows.

Seasonality

The Company's fiscal year begins on July 1 and ends on June 30. Historically, the end users of Napco's products want to install its products prior to the summer; therefore sales of its products historically peak in the period April 1 through June 30, the Company's fiscal fourth quarter, and are reduced in the period July 1 through September 30, the Company's fiscal first quarter. In addition, demand is affected by the housing and construction markets. Deterioration of the current economic conditions may also affect this trend.

The Company's significant accounting policies are fully described in Note 1 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in its 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, (ii) there is a fixed and determinable price for the Company's product, (iii) shipment and passage of title occurs and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Revenues from product sales are recorded at the time the product is shipped or delivered to the customer pursuant to the terms of the sale. The Company reports its sales on a net sales basis, with net sales being computed by deducting from gross sales the amount of actual sales returns and other allowances and the amount of reserves established for anticipated sales returns and other allowances.

The Company analyzes sales returns and is able to make reasonable and reliable estimates of product returns based on the Company’s past history. Estimates for sales returns are based on several factors including actual returns and based on expected return data communicated to it by its customers. Accordingly, the Company believes that its historical returns analysis is an accurate basis for its allowance for sales returns. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

An entity is more vulnerable to concentrations of credit risk if it is exposed to risk of loss greater than it would have had if it mitigated its risk through diversification of customers. Such risks of loss manifest themselves differently, depending on the nature of the concentration, and vary in significance. The Company had two customers with accounts receivable balances that aggregated 28% and 22% of the Company’s accounts receivable at September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. Sales to any one customer did not exceed 10% of net sales in any of the past two fiscal years.

In the ordinary course of business, we have established a reserve for doubtful accounts and customer deductions in the amount of $230,000 and $220,000 as of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively. Our reserve for doubtful accounts is a subjective critical estimate that has a direct impact on reported net earnings. This reserve is based upon the evaluation of accounts receivable agings, specific exposures and historical or anticipated events.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or fair market value, with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The reported net value of inventory includes finished saleable products, work-in-process and raw materials that will be sold or used in future periods. Inventory costs include raw materials, direct labor and overhead. The Company’s overhead expenses are applied based, in part, upon estimates of the proportion of those expenses that are related to procuring and storing raw materials as compared to the manufacture and assembly of finished products. These proportions, the method of their application, and the resulting overhead included in ending inventory, are based in part on subjective estimates and actual results could differ from those estimates.

In addition, the Company records an inventory obsolescence reserve, which represents the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated market value, based on various product sales projections. This reserve is calculated using an estimated obsolescence percentage applied to the inventory based on age, historical trends, requirements to support forecasted sales, and the ability to find alternate applications of its raw materials and to convert finished product into alternate versions of the same product to better match customer demand.  There is inherent professional judgment and subjectivity made by both production and engineering members of management in determining the estimated obsolescence percentage. In addition, and as necessary, the Company may establish specific reserves for future known or anticipated events. The Company also regularly reviews the period over which its inventories will be converted to sales. Any inventories expected to convert to sales beyond 12 months from the balance sheet date are classified as non-current.

Intangible Assets

The Company evaluates its Intangible Assets for impairment at least on an annual basis. Those intangible assets that are classified as goodwill or as other intangibles with indefinite lives are not amortized. Impairment testing is performed in two steps: (i) the Company determines impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value, and (ii) if there is impairment, the Company measures the amount of impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of intangible assets with the carrying amount of the intangible assets.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company measures and recognizes the tax implications of positions taken or expected to be taken in its tax returns on an ongoing basis.

Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2013 increased 13% to $17,239,000 as compared to $15,216,000 for the same period a year ago. In the increase in sales for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was due primarily to increased sales in the Company’s door-locking products ($1,283,000) and access control ($720,000) products. The increase in sales of door-locking products for the three months was due primarily to general increased demand for the Company’s door-locking products. The increase in the Company’s access control products was due primarily to a large order of $1,734,000 from a major university. The Company shipped $1,127,000 of this order during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and completed delivery of the remaining $607,000 in during the quarter ended September 30, 2013.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2013 increased to $5,039,000 or 29.2% of sales as compared to $4,136,000 or 27.2% of sales for the same period a year ago. The increase in gross profit for the three months was primarily due to the aforementioned increase in net sales, a positive shift in product mix to the Company’s door-locking products and a $154,000 reduction in research and development costs as a result of the completion of development of the Company’s iBridge product line.
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013 increased by $242,000 to $4,777,000 from $4,535,000 for the same period a year ago.  Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 27.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from 29.8% for the same period a year ago. The increase in dollars was due primarily from the addition of selling personnel.

Interest expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2013 decreased by $56,000 to $121,000 as compared to $177,000 for the same period a year ago. The decrease in interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 resulted from lower average outstanding debt during the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the same period a year ago.

The Company’s provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2013 increased by $160,000 to a provision of $15,000 as compared to a benefit of $145,000 for the same period a year ago. The increase in the provision for income taxes was caused primarily by the increase in income before income taxes as well as a change in the proportion of the income before income taxes being generated by the Company’s U.S. operations to the loss being generated by non-taxable foreign operations for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the same period a year ago. As a result, the Company’s effective rate for income tax was 11% and 25% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Net income increased by $557,000 to $123,000 or $0.01 per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to a loss of $(434,000) or $(0.02) per diluted share for the same period a year ago. The changes for the three months ended September 30, 2013 were primarily due to the items as described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months ended September 30, 2013 the Company utilized a portion of its cash from operations ($3,305,000 of $3,782,000) to repay outstanding debt ($2,900,000), purchase treasury stock ($285,000) and purchase property, plant and equipment ($125,000). The Company believes its current working capital, cash flows from operations and its revolving credit agreement will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations through the next twelve months.

Accounts Receivable at September 30, 2013 decreased $3,923,000 to $14,288,000 as compared to $18,211,000 at June 30, 2013.  This decrease is primarily the result of the lower sales volume during the quarter ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2013, which is typically the Company’s highest.

Inventories at September 30, 2013 increased $1,520,000 to $23,427,000 as compared to $21,907,000 at June 30, 2013. This increase is primarily the result of the Company keeping additional inventory of recently introduced products as well as level-loading its production facility in the Dominican Republic.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased $879,000 to $7,894,000 as of September 30, 2013 as compared to $7,015,000 at June 30, 2013.  This increase is due primarily to the increase in inventory discussed above.

As of September 30, 2013, long-term debt consisted of a revolving credit facility of $11,000,000 (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) which expires in June 2017 and two term loans, one for $6,000,000 which expires in June 2019, and one for $6,500,000 which expires in June 2017 (the “Term Loans”). Repayment of the Terms Loans commenced on September 30, 2012. The $6,000,000 Term Loan is being repaid with 28 equal, quarterly payments of $75,000 and the remaining balance of $3,900,000 due on or before the expiration date. The $6,500,000 Term Loan is being repaid in 20 equal, quarterly payments of $325,000. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had $3,000,000 in outstanding borrowings and $8,000,000 in availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company’s long-term debt is described more fully in Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The agreements contain various restrictions and covenants including, among others, restrictions on payment of dividends, restrictions on borrowings and compliance with certain financial ratios, as defined in the restated agreement.

As of September 30, 2013 the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures or inventory purchases other than purchase orders issued in the normal course of business.

ITEM 3:  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company's principal financial instrument is long-term debt (consisting of a revolving credit facility and term loans) that provides for interest based on the prime rate or LIBOR as described in the agreement. The Company is affected by market risk exposure primarily through the effect of changes in interest rates on amounts payable by the Company under these credit facilities. At September 30, 2013, an aggregate principal amount of approximately $13,500,000 was outstanding under the Company's credit facilities with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 2.2%. If principal amounts outstanding under the Company's credit facilities remained at this level for an entire year and the interest rate increased or decreased, respectively, by 1% the Company would pay or save, respectively, an additional $135,000 in interest that year.
 
All foreign sales transactions by the Company are denominated in U.S. dollars. As such, the Company has shifted foreign currency exposure onto its foreign customers. As a result, if exchange rates move against foreign customers, the Company could experience difficulty collecting unsecured accounts receivable, the cancellation of existing orders or the loss of future orders. The foregoing could materially adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. We are also exposed to foreign currency risk relative to expenses incurred in Dominican Pesos ("RD$"), the local currency of the Company's production facility in the Dominican Republic. The result of a 10% strengthening in the U.S. dollar to our RD$ expenses would result in an annual decrease in income from operations of approximately $600,000.
 
ITEM 4:  Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management's control objectives.

At the conclusion of the period ended September 30, 2013, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at September 30, 2013.
 
During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, there were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.
