The Exhibit Index begins on page 15. PART I ITEM 1 - BUSINESS - ----------------- General - ------- Trio-Tech International (the Company or the Registrant) was incorporated in California in 1958. The Company is a designer, producer and marketer of environmental testing equipment used to test the structural integrity of semiconductor devices that must meet high-reliability specifications and rate of turn test equipment for aerospace, geographical, laboratory and other applications. In addition, the Company owns and operates facilities where a broad range of structural and electronic tests are performed for manufacturers and end-users of merchant and high-reliability semiconductor devices. The Singapore subsidiary also acts as a distributor for certain test equipment made by other manufacturers. In 1976, the Company formed Trio-Tech International Pte Ltd (TTIPte), a wholly owned subsidiary, and it in turn formed Trio-Tech Test Services Pte Ltd (TTTSPte), its wholly owned subsidiary. They autonomously operate in the Republic of Singapore, for the purpose of selling testing equipment and providing testing services to integrated circuit (IC) manufacturers located in Singapore and elsewhere in the Pacific basin. The Singapore facility benefits from moderate labor costs, the absence of currency and tariff restrictions, and the rapid growth of the semiconductor manufacturing industry in Asia and the Pacific basin, including the expansion of manufacturing activities by American industries in Singapore and the Pacific Rim. In August 1984, the Company formed a wholly owned Cayman Islands subsidiary, European Electronic Test Centre (EETC). In July 1985, EETC commenced operating a semiconductor testing facility in Dublin, Ireland. The Company obtained a grant from the Industrial Development Authority (IDA) of the Republic of Ireland to provide 30% of actual expenditures for building modifications and fixed assets up to a maximum of $1,279,000. Grant monies received from the IDA of $120,000 may have to be repaid if certain events occur within one year from June 30, 1995. In 1985, the Company's Singapore subsidiary entered into a joint-venture agreement with a group of Malaysian investors to operate a testing facility in Penang, Malaysia. Under this agreement, the Singapore subsidiary provides the equipment and management for the Penang facility. The operations of this entity are included in the consolidated financial statements. In July of l990, the joint venture opened another testing facility in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. This facility is primarily involved in the testing business. In March 1994, this facility started a new operation in Batang Kali, Malaysia. This new operation is set up primarily to handle sub-contract work on optoelectronic assemblies. On September 1, 1988, the Company acquired the Rotating Test Equipment Product Line of Genisco Technology Corporation (Genisco). On November 1, 1990, Trio-Tech acquired Express Test Corporation then of Mountain View, California. The Company paid cash, notes and stock for Express Test. Express Test is a manufacturer of pressurized vessels (autoclaves) designed for humidity stress testing of integrated circuits. Whereas most of Trio-Tech's integrated circuit testing devices are for hermetically sealed ceramic devices, Express Test machines are designed to test plastic sealed devices. In October 1992, the Company's Singapore subsidiary formed a wholly owned subsidiary to provide testing services in Bangkok, Thailand. The Singapore subsidiary provides the equipment and management for this new operation. In October 1993, the Company's Singapore subsidiary entered into a joint-venture agreement with a Chinese Company to operate a crude oil chemical processing business in Wuhan, China. This new business diversification involves a value added production process in which crude oil is chemically processed, repackaged and distributed to industrial users. Production in the facility commenced in August, 1994. In November 1993, the Company's Singapore subsidiary acquired a 73% equity interest in Prestal Enterprise Sdn Bhd, an investment holding Company which owned a 6% indirect share holding in Trio-Tech Malaysia (TTM). The purpose was to acquire an additional 5% shareholding in TTM. The following table sets forth the percentage of revenues derived from product sales and testing services during the last three fiscal years and the breakdown of revenues derived from customers in the United States, Southeast Asia and Europe. The amounts represented in Product Sales and Service include revenues derived from the test equipment distribution business in Singapore. See Note 14, Business Segment, for a more detailed description.

Background Technology - --------------------- Semiconductors are fundamental building blocks used in electronic equipment and systems. Integrated circuits (IC) consist of silicon "chips" of semiconductor material that perform electronic functions, encapsulated in packaging material, usually plastic or ceramic, having lead wires that connect to a printed circuit board. Integrated circuits have become increasingly complex, with greater capacity, versatility and smaller size. The protective packaging, whether ceramic, plastic or some other material, is intended to hold the device in place and protect it against corrosion, oxidization, shock, handling, temperature and other problems that can result in the failure of the device. A minute defect in the packaging can cause a semiconductor device to fail prematurely. The Registrant manufactures test equipment for reliability analysis of both ceramic and plastic encapsulated integrated devices.Hermetically sealed (normally ceramic) packaging is required by military,aerospace, telecommunications and other commercial users for semiconductor devices that must have high reliability and long life. It is also used for hybrid circuits and certain other specialized devices, and for semiconductor devices that are produced in smaller quantities. There have been significant advances in the plastics industry, thereby making plastic sealed devices as reliable as ceramic ones. Plastic is the material of choice in the commercial integrated circuit markets, because polymers are less expensive and easier to process than ceramic materials. Many manufacturers and purchasers of high-reliability integrated circuits follow government-defined reliability standards, including rigorous military standard specifications. Military specifications, which are detailed and precise, have brought about considerable standardization of quality assurance programs in the semiconductor industry. Military and commercial specifications include, among other things, environmental testing, which is aimed at both detecting defective devices and accelerating failure in potentially defective ones. An additional objective of environmental testing is to determine and to evaluate statistically the ultimate reliability and integrity of integrated circuits and to predict their performance and durability under ordinary or adverse conditions. The devices are tested before incorporating them into the finished product. The tests vary according to the use for which the device is intended but usually include visual inspection, stabilization bake, thermal shock temperature cycling, mechanical shock, centrifugal force testing, fine and gross leak testing, burn-in testing and electrical testing. Products - -------- The Registrant designs and manufactures environmental testing equipment for testing of ceramic and plastic packaged integrated circuits. The Registrant's products are sold both as separate products and as part of an integrated system for environmental testing. Centrifuges - ----------- The Registrant manufactures a line of centrifuges that tests the mechanical integrity of hermetic encased electronic parts. The Registrant's centrifuges are used to identify mechanical weaknesses of devices by spinning them at a specified acceleration, creating a pressure of up to 30,000 g's (900,000 pounds per square inch). This pressure will crack or break packages having certain defects in the hermetic packages. The Registrant also designs the fixtures that are inserted into the centrifuge to hold the semiconductors while they are being tested. Leak Testers - ------------ he Registrant also manufactures systems for leak detection in hermetically packaged semiconductor devices. Certain defects may appear in some tests but not in others, so that thorough testing requires three separate leak procedures using different equipment. The Registrant manufactures a range of equipment and systems designed to detect leaks in hermetic packaging by means of visual scanning for bubble trails emanating from defective devices and radioactive detection for ultra fine leaks. Rate of Turn Tables - ------------------- This product line includes centrifuges and rate of turn tables that are used in applications for aerospace, electronics, instrumentation, environmental laboratory, medical and geographical fields. Among the commercial applications of these centrifuges are gravity simulation testing of components, assemblies and systems for aerospace, military hardware (accelerometers, devices, fuses, etc.), biomedical research, geophysical testing, automotive components, fluid removal from sensitive components, gas removal from liquids and other large-scale separation requirements. One prominent example of the product line is the use of the 1100 Centrifuge at the Pittsburgh Eye and Ear Hospital in rotational testing of the vestibule of the inner-ear system that causes dizziness and unsteady eye and body movements when diseased. Typical rate of turn table application is gyroscope calibration and testing, angular accelerometers, turn and bank indicators, inertial platforms and direction sensing equipment. Burn-in Equipment and Fixtures - ------------------------------ Trio-Tech International, Singapore is a leading burn-in system manufacturer in the Pacific Rim. Burn-in equipment is used to subject all types of integrated circuits to sustained heat while testing them electrically in order to identify early product failures ("infant mortalities") as well as to assure long-term reliability. Burn-in testing approximates, in a compressed time frame, the electrical and thermal conditions to which the device would be subjected during its normal life. The Singapore operation also offers test fixtures for its Cobis burn-in systems and other brands of burn-in systems. Burn-in boards are used as fixture devices for the purpose of electrically exercising test devices during high temperature environmental stressing. Pressurized Humidity Testing Equipment - -------------------------------------- The Registrant manufactures a range of pressurized humidity test equipment and specialized test fixtures which the company continues to market under the name of Express Test Corporation. Pressurized humidity test equipment utilizes a pressurized vessel (autoclave) as the main test chamber in order to force moisture into the plastic encapsulate and thereby determine the moisture resistance of the test devices much more rapidly than non pressurized conventional humidity test systems. Highly accelerated temperature and humidity stress test systems offer reliability data for high reliability commercial IC manufacturers and end-users such as computer, automotive and other commercial customers. Temperature Test Equipment - -------------------------- The Artic Temperature Test Systems are used to control the temperature of semiconductor wafers and components to allow testing and characterization at hot and cold temperatures. During the past year, the Registrant developed and released two new products in this product range. The systems utilize thermoelectric modules to achieve wide temperature ranges without the need for special refrigerants and cooling fluids. Product Development - ------------------- Development of the Rate of Turn Tables and large Centrifuges is targeted at new applications in the automotive industry. The latest centrifuges and rate tables combine two technologies which facilitates the acceleration test of devices at hot and cold temperatures. The Registrant has developed and released a new electrical test system for electronic components. This product is being developed into a product range which will include failure analysis testers and test systems for electronic modules. Testing Services - ---------------- The Registrant owns and operates facilities that provide testing services for ceramic and plastic encased semiconductor devices and other electronic components to meet the requirements of military, aerospace, industrial and commercial applications. The Registrant uses its own proprietary equipment for certain burn-in, centrifugal and leak tests, and commercially available equipment for the various other environmental tests. The Registrant conducts its testing operations at its facilities located in San Fernando, California; the Republic of Singapore; Dublin, Ireland; Penang and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; and Bangkok, Thailand. The testing services are used by manufacturers and purchasers of semiconductors and other components who either do not have any testing capabilities or whose in-house screening facilities are not sufficient to test devices to military or certain commercial specifications. In addition, the Registrant provides overflow testing and independent verification for companies that have their own in-house capabilities. The laboratories perform a variety of tests, including stabilization bake, thermal shock, temperature cycling, mechanical shock, constant acceleration, gross and fine leak tests, electrical testing, static and dynamic burn-in tests, and vibration testing. The laboratories also perform qualification testing, consisting of intense tests conducted on small samples of output from manufacturers who must obtain periodic qualification under the terms of their contracts. The Registrant delivers written certification to customers reporting on the test results. Distribution Activities - ----------------------- The Company's Singapore subsidiary continues to develop its international distribution division. This is in addition to its manufacturing and testing business. This distribution business purchases products from European and Pacific Rim manufacturers for resale. Specifically, Heraeus-Votsch of West Germany has been utilizing Trio-Tech International Pte. Ltd. in Singapore as a distributor of its products for nearly seven years. The Singapore subsidiary also represents several Japanese and American manufacturers. This segment of Singapore's business continues to grow. It affords Trio-Tech additional sales penetration opportunities in the Pacific Rim for the remainder of the Trio-Tech product line. Marketing, Distribution and Service - ----------------------------------- The Company markets its products and services worldwide, both directly and through independent sales representatives. There are approximately 13 of these representatives that operate within the United States and 10 in various foreign countries. The Company's marketing efforts in the United States and Europe are coordinated from its headquarters in San Fernando, and its Far East marketing efforts are assisted by its subsidiary in Singapore. Its European marketing is assigned to its subsidiary in Ireland. The Registrant advertises in trade journals and participates in trade shows. The Company's products and services are purchased by independent testing laboratories and by users and manufacturers of high-reliability semiconductor devices, including Hyundai, TRW Teledyne, Allied Signal, AMD, Motorola, National Semiconductor, SGS Thomson and Texas Instruments. During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Company had sales of $3,000,000 and $2,431,000 to two different customers. One customer was responsible for more than 10% of the Company's consolidated sales for fiscal year 1994. Backlog - ------- The following table sets forth the Company's backlog at the dates indicated:
June 30, 1995 June 24, 1994 ------------- ------------- Manufacturing backlog $1,346,000 $1,193,000 Testing service backlog 2,570,000 2,257,000 Distribution backlog 1,286,000 822,000 ----------- ------------ $5,202,000 $4,272,000 ========== ==========
Based upon past experience, the Company does not anticipate any significant cancellations. The purchase orders for equipment call for delivery within the next 12 months. The testing services backlog is scheduled to be performed within the next year. The Company does not anticipate any difficulties in meeting the above delivery schedule. Manufacturing and Supply - ------------------------ The Registrant's products are designed by its engineers and are assembled and tested at its facilities in San Fernando, California, the Republic of Singapore and the Republic of Ireland. All parts and certain components are purchased from outside sources for assembly by the Company. The Registrant uses Fluorinert, a special indicator fluid sold by the 3M Company, in its gross leak equipment, and Krypton 85, sold by Amersham, in its Tracer-Flo. The Registrant has not experienced any difficulty in obtaining Fluorinert or Krypton 85 to date. There can be no assurance that the Registrant will not experience difficulties or delays in obtaining Fluorinert or Krypton 85 in the future. Competition - ----------- Management believes that the Registrant is one of the leading manufacturers in the specific areas of fine leak and gross leak testers for ceramic and plastic packaged semiconductor devices and constant acceleration centrifuges used for structural testing of such devices. Because of the importance of testing as part of the manufacturing process for high-reliability semiconductor devices, management believes that the quality, accuracy and reputation of its products and services, and to a lesser extent price, are the bases of competition in the product and service areas served by the Company. In order for the Company to remain competitive, it must have the ability to adapt to rapid technological change and to develop new and improved products. There are numerous testing laboratories in the areas in which the Registrant operates that perform a range of testing services similar to those offered by the Registrant. Since the Registrant has sold and will continue to sell its leak testing systems and centrifuges to competing laboratories, the Registrant's competitors can offer the same capabilities in testing. The Registrant also sells its products and systems to semiconductor manufacturers and users who might otherwise have used outside testing laboratories, including the Registrant, to perform environmental testing. Reputation for dependable testing and prompt performance, to a greater extent than price, appear to be the primary bases of competition among testing laboratories. The existence of competing laboratories and the purchase of testing equipment by manufacturers and users are potential threats to the Company's future revenues and earnings from testing. Patents - ------- The Registrant holds a U.S. Patent granted in 1987 in relation to its pressurization humidity testing equipment. The Registrant also holds a U.S. Patent granted in 1994 on certain aspects of its Artic Temperature Test Systems. In addition the Registrant has recently filed a new Patent application for certain aspects of its new Artic Temperature Test products. Government Regulation - --------------------- The Tracer-Flo process uses Krypton 85, an inert radioactive gas, the supply and handling of which are subject to regulation by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and the California Department of Health Physics. The Company must, therefore, train the Tracer-Flo operators, which are licensed by the State of California, and must maintain records and control its supplies of Krypton 85. The California agency conducts periodic site inspections, and the NRC monitors interstate shipments and can inspect the Company's shipping records. No security clearance is required to handle the gas, which has a low level of radioactivity. Employees - --------- As of June 30, 1995, the Company had 33 employees in the United States, 179 in Singapore, 260 in Malaysia, 73 in Bangkok and 8 in Ireland. Of the employees in the United States, 8 were engaged primarily in engineering and services, 17 in manufacturing or testing, 3 in sales, and 5 in general and administrative positions. None of the Company's employees are represented by a labor union. However, in Dublin, Ireland, the Union Agreement is still in place without any members. Management considers its employee relations to be good.

ITEM 3 - ------ LEGAL PROCEEDINGS - ----------------- On August 24, 1995, the Company was served in a civil action brought by HM Holdings, Inc. against 106 defendants, including the Company. HM has paid $3,750,000 to the Federal Environmental Protection Agency to settle a proceeding alleging that HM's predecessor company caused soil and groundwater contamination of the North Hollywood (California) Superfund Site and may have additional liabilities. HM alleges that the 106 defendants caused or contributed to the contamination. This suit may arise in part out of a related suit by Lockheed Martin Corporation against HM and other defendants, possibly including Trio-Tech (which has not been served in this related suit), involving the nearby Burbank Superfund Site, which HM is seeking to settle and to assign its claim against the 106 defendants to Lockheed Martin. Trio-Tech vacated its Burbank location in 1987. Trio-tech and its counsel have not yet had the opportunity to investigate the allegations. Management, based on its present information, believes that the outcome of this litigation will not materially affect the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. There are no material proceedings to which any director, officer or affiliate of the Registrant, any beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Registrant's common stock or any associate of such person is a party that is adverse to the Registrant or its properties. ITEM 4 - ------ SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS - --------------------------------------------------- The Company did not submit any matters to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report. PART II ITEM 5 - ------ MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK - ------------------------------------ The Registrant's common stock is traded on the Over-the-Counter Market.

ITEM 7 - ------ MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND - --------------------------------------------------------------- RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the percentages that certain items in the selected financial data bear to total revenues:
Year Ended June ------------------------ 1995 1994 1993 ---- ---- ---- Net sales 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales 65.4 65.7 67.6 Gross profit 34.6 34.3 32.4 Operating expenses 26.7 26.4 26.5 Income from operations 7.9 7.9 5.9 Other income (expenses) .7 (3.9) (2.3) Extraordinary item 11.6 Net income 2.9 13.5 .7
Year Ended June 30, 1995 ("1995") Compared to Year Ended June 24, 1994 ("1994") - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sales increased $4,323,000 or 28.5% to $19,488,000 in 1995 from $15,165,000 in 1994 as a result of improved operations in each of the business segments. Sales for the Far East operations increased $3,249,000 (26.1%) due primarily to improved operations in Malaysia as the volume of testing services in that region increased. Additionally, there was an increase in manufacturing revenues in the Far East as a result of the sale of additional systems during 1995. The U.S. operations sales increased $710,000 (34.4%) due to increased sales volume in the manufacturing segment. Sales for Ireland improved $364,000 (55.6%) as a result of increases in the volume of testing services performed in the current year. Cost of sales increased $2,783,000 or 27.9% from $9,961,000 in 1994 to $12,744,000 in 1995. However, cost of sales as a percentage of sales remained relatively stable and actually decreased from 65.7% in 1994 to 65.4% in 1995 as a result of continued cost cutting efforts. Operating expenses increased $1,197,000 (29.9%) to $5,197,000 in 1995. As percentage of sales, operating expenses were almost the same at 26.7% in 1995 as compared to 26.4% in 1994. Interest expense decreased $331,000 in 1995 as compared to 1994 due to the significant reduction in average outstanding debt balances during the current year. During 1994, the Company entered into an agreement with its previous lender which resulted in reduced bank borrowings. Other income increased $284,000 primarily due to currency exchange losses experienced in 1994 which did not reoccur in 1995. Income taxes increased $207,000 as a direct result of the increase in operations experienced in the current year. The effective tax rate in 1995 was 26% which approximates the foreign income tax rate for the Far East operations. The U.S. operations have net operating losses which are used to offset any income taxes associated with their taxable income. Year Ended June 24, 1994 ("1994") Compared to Year Ended June 25, 1993 ("1993") - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net sales decreased by approximately $557,000 or 4% in fiscal 1994 compared to 1993. The decrease was primarily due to a $940,000 reduction in sales from the U.S. operations due to continued economic problems in the U.S. semiconductor industry. This was partially offset by a $392,000 increase in sales from the Far East operations. Ireland's sales remained relatively constant during fiscal year 1994. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 65.7% in fiscal 1994 compared to 67.6% in fiscal 1993. This decrease was due to increased sales in the distribution segment which experiences higher margins than manufacturing or testing. Additionally, the Company continues its efforts to reduce manufacturing and overhead costs. Operating expenses decreased approximately $159,000 or 4% and remained relatively constant as a percentage of sales. Income before income taxes and extraordinary item as a percentage of sales increased to 4.1% in fiscal 1994 compared to 3.6% in fiscal 1993. The increase resulted from improved gross margins in the current year which were partially offset by a $109,000 write-off of an investment. Extraordinary income of $1,751,000 was recognized by the Company in fiscal 1994 as a result of the extinguishment of a significant portion of its bank debt. Liquidity and Capital Resources - ------------------------------- The Company's working capital improved significantly from $511,000 as of June 24, 1994 to $1,689,000 as of June 30, 1995. The improvement in working capital is attributable to the significant increase in sales and profitability during fiscal year 1995. The Company has a secured credit agreement with Standard Charter Bank which provides for a total line of credit of approximately $655,000 which can be used to finance the company's Far East operations. Borrowings under the line were $219,000 as of June 30, 1995 and bear interest at the bank's prime rate (7% at June 30, 1995) plus 3%. In addition, the Company's subsidiary, TTM, has a line of credit which provides for borrowings of approximately $234,000. At June 30, 1995, there were no borrowings outstanding. Interest on the line is at the bank's reference rate plus 2%. The company currently has no financing arrangements to fund operations outside of the Far East region. Most of the capital expenditures incurred during fiscal 1995 were used to update and expand the variety of testing services required by the customer base in the Far East. Management believes that the Company's operations will be able to be funded over the next twelve months through operations, existing working capital and its available lines of credit.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation - Trio-Tech International (the "Company" or "TTI") is a designer and manufacturer of equipment used to test the structural integrity of semiconductor devices that must meet high-reliability specifications. The Company also owns and operates testing facilities that perform structural and electronic testing of semiconductor devices and acts as a distributor of electronic testing equipment in Singapore and other Southeast Asian countries. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its principal subsidiaries: Trio-Tech International Pte Ltd (TTI Pte), Trio-Tech Test Services Pte Ltd (TTTS Pte), Express Test, European Electronic Test Centre (EETC), Trio-Tech Bangkok (TTBkk), Trio-Tech Malaysia (TTM) (a 55%-owned joint venture of Trio-Tech International Pte. Ltd) and Prestal Enterprise Sdn Bhd (PESB) (a 73% owned subsidiary of Trio-Tech International Pte Ltd). In 1994, the Company entered into a joint venture in the Peoples Republic of China. The amount of this investment was minimal at June 30, 1995. All material intercompany transactions, profits and balances have been eliminated. Accounting Period - The Company's fiscal reporting period coincides with the 52-53 week period ending on the last Friday in June. Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, or market. Property, Equipment and Capitalized Leases - Property, equipment and capitalized leases are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the terms of the leases, whichever is shorter, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range from 3 to 45 years. Capital grants from the Industrial Development Authority in Ireland are accounted for when claimed by reducing the cost of the related assets. The grants are amortized over the depreciable lives of those assets. Foreign Currency Translation - All assets and liabilities of operations outside the United States have been translated at the foreign exchange rates in effect at year-end. Revenues and expenses for the year are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the year. Unrealized translation gains and losses are not included in determining net income but are accumulated and reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Net realized gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are credited or charged to income. Other Assets - The excess of cost over net assets acquired is included in other assets and is being amortized over 5-10 years. The Company reviews the carrying value of all intangible assets on a regular basis, and if future cash flows are believed insufficient to recover the remaining carrying value of an intangible asset, the carrying value is written down in the period the impairment is identified to its future recoverable value. Taxes on Income - The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, " Accounting for Income Taxes." This Statement requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred taxes and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. Such deferred income tax asset and liability computations are based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Research and Development Costs -The Company incurred research and development costs of $51,000 in 1995, $71,000 in 1994 and $9,000 in 1993, which were charged to cost of sales as incurred. Income per Share - Income per share is based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding and common stock equivalents (consisting of stock options), excluding those common stock equivalents which would be anti-dilutive. Reclassification - Certain reclassifications have been made to the previous year's financial statements to conform to current year presentation. 2.

Income in one country is not offset by losses inanother country. Accordingly, no benefit is provided for losses in countries except where the loss can be carried back against income recognized in previous years. Income taxes are provided in those countries where income is earned. The effect of providing tax against profits while not providing benefit for losses results in an effective tax rate which differs from the federal statutory rate. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences in the recognition of certain revenues and expenses for tax and financial statement purposes. The components of deferred tax assets (liabilities) are as follows: June 30, June 24, 1995 1994 -------- -------- Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carry forward $1,109,000 $1,138,000 Accrued vacations 36,000 28,000 Reserve for obsolescence 131,000 141,000 Other 4,000 4,000 ---------- ----------- Total deferred tax assets 1,280,000 1,311,000 --------- --------- Deferred tax liabilities: Depreciation (774,000) (866,000) Other (123,000) (19,000) ------------ ------------ Total tax liabilities (897,000) (885,000) ------------- ------------ Subtotal 383,000 426,000 Valuation allowance (1,253,000) (1,279,000) ----------- ----------- Net deferred tax liability $(870,000) $(853,000) ========== ========= At June 30, 1995, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3,262,000 available to offset future U.S. federal taxes, which primarily expire between 2005 and 2008. 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company leases certain of its facilities and equipment under long-term agreements expiring at various dates through 2030. Certain of these leases require the Company to pay real estate taxes and insurance and provide for escalation of lease costs based on certain indices.
