ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The financial statements of Electronic Systems Technology, Inc. (the "Company"), presented in this Form 10Q are unaudited and reflect, in the opinion of Management, a fair presentation of operations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013. All adjustments of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods covered have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In preparation of the financial statements, certain amounts and balances have been reformatted from previously filed reports to conform to the format of this quarterly presentation. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2013 as filed with Securities and Exchange Commission.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or for any other fiscal period.
NOTE 2 - INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at lower of direct cost or market with cost determined using the FIFO (first in, first out) method. Inventories consist of the following:
| June 30, 2014 | December 31, 2013 |
Parts | $ 267,104 | $217,567 |
Work in progress | 111,185 | 83,620 |
Finished goods | 328,114 | 324,505 |
| $ 706,403 | $625,692 |
NOTE 3 – INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic income (loss) per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects potential dilution occurring if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. At June 30, 2014 the Company had 515,000 outstanding stock options that could have a dilutive effect on future periods. However, at June 30, 2014 there was no material effect of stock options on diluted earnings per share or weighted average shares outstanding.
NOTE 4 - STOCK OPTIONS:
As of June 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding stock options, which have been granted periodically to individual employees and directors with no less than three years of continuous tenure with the Company. On February 28, 2014, additional stock options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock were granted to individual employees and directors with no less than three years continuous tenure. The options granted on February 28, 2014 totaled 175,000 shares under option and have an exercise price of $0.41 per share.
The options granted on February 28, 2014 may be exercised any time during the period from February 28, 2014 through February 28, 2017. The Company's Form 8-K filed March 6, 2014, is incorporated herein by reference. All outstanding stock options must be exercised within 90 days after termination of employment.
6
NOTE 4 - STOCK OPTIONS, Continued:
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2014 and 2013:
| 2014 | 2013 |
Dividend yield | 0.00% | 0.00% |
Expected volatility | 75% | 73% |
Risk-free interest rate | 0.68% | 0.38% |
Expected term (in years) | 3 | 3 |
Estimated Fair Value per Option Granted | $0.20 | $0.15 |
The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise rates. The option exercise rate for option grants in 2005 through 2013 was 6.43%.
A summary of option activity during the six months ended June 30, 2014, is as follows:
| Number Outstanding | Weighted-Average Exercise Price Per Share |
Outstanding at December 31, 2013 | 525,000 | $0.27 |
Granted | 175,000 | 041 |
Exercised | -- | -- |
Expired | (185,000) | 0.44 |
Outstanding at June 30, 2013 | 515,000 | 0.40 |
In February 2014, the Company issued 175,000 options with an estimated fair value per option of $0.20 resulting in a stock based compensation value of $34,930. After the stock based compensation value is adjusted for the historical option forfeiture rate of 93.6%, a stock based compensation expense was charged against income for 2014 of $2,245. At June 30, 2014 the intrinsic value of outstanding stock options was approximately $10,300.
NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
For the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, services in the amounts of $8,550 and $27,706, respectively, were contracted with Manufacturing Services, Inc. (“MSI”), a company of which Melvin H. Brown is a former owner and is currently a member of the Board of Directors of Electronic Systems Technology Inc. For the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2013 the contracted services with MSI were $27,065 and $47,948, respectively. The Company owed accounts payable to MSI at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 of $2,707 and $10, respectively.
NOTE 6 - SEGMENT REPORTING
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that the Company's management reviews financial information for operational decision making purposes. The Company has two reportable segments, domestic and foreign, based on the geographic location of the customers. Both segments sell radio modem products (requiring an FCC license or license free Ethernet products), related accessories for radio modem products for industrial automation projects, and mobile data computer products. The foreign segment sells the Company's products and services outside the United States.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, Domestic customers represented approximately 82% of total net revenues. Foreign customers represented approximately 18% of total net revenues. During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, sales to no one single customer, comprised more than 10% of the Company’s sales revenues. Revenues from foreign countries during the second quarter of 2014 consist primarily of revenues from product sales to Peru and Hungary.
During the first six months of 2014, Domestic customers represented approximately 81% of total net revenues. Foreign customers represented approximately 19% of total net revenues. During the first half of June 30, 2014, sales to no one single customer was greater than 10% of the Company’s sales revenues. Revenues from foreign countries during the first half of 2014 consist primarily of revenues from product sales to Peru and Hungary.
7
NOTE 6 - SEGMENT REPORTING, Continued:
Management evaluates performance based on net revenues and operating expenses. Where applicable, portions of the administrative function expenses are allocated between the operating segments. The operating segments share the same manufacturing and distributing facilities. Costs of operating the manufacturing plant, equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable are allocated directly to each segment.
Summary financial information for the two reportable segments for the second quarter and first six months of 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

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 OPERATION
Management’s discussion and analysis is intended to be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited financial statements and the integral notes thereto for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. The following statements may be forward looking in nature and actual results may differ materially.
A. Results of Operations
REVENUES:
Total revenues from the sale of the Company’s ESTeem wireless modem products and services increased to $532,262 for the second quarter of 2014, compared to $493,607 for the second quarter of 2013. Gross revenues increased to $535,239 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, from $495,483 for the same quarter of 2013. Year to date sales increased to $1,032,086 as of June 30, 2014 as compared to $907,020 as of June 30, 2013. Year to date gross revenues increased to $1,037,612 as of June 30, 2014 compared to $910,885 as of June 30, 2013. Management believes the increase in quarterly and increase year to date sales revenues is due to increased engineering services and core products.
The Company's revenues have historically fluctuated from quarter to quarter due to timing factors such as customer order placement and product shipments to customers, as well as customer buying trends, and changes in the general economic environment. The procurement process regarding plant and project automation, or project development, which usually surrounds the decision to purchase ESTeem products, can be lengthy. This procurement process may involve bid activities unrelated to the ESTeem products, such as additional systems and subcontract work, as well as capital budget considerations on the part of the customer. Because of the complexity of this procurement process, forecasts in regard to the Company's revenues become difficult to predict.
A percentage breakdown of EST's Domestic and Export Sales, for the second quarter of 2014 and 2013 are as follows:
| For the second quarter of | |
| 2014 | 2013 |
Domestic Sales | 82% | 77% |
Export Sales | 18% | 23% |
OPERATING SEGMENTS:
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that the Company’s Management reviews financial information for operational decision-making purposes. The Company’s operating segment information is contained in “Financial Statements, Notes to Financial Statements, Note 6 – Segment Reporting”.
Domestic Revenues
During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Company’s domestic operations represented 82% of the Company’s total sales revenues. Domestic operations sell ESTeem modem products, accessories and service primarily through domestic resellers, as well as directly to end users of the Company’s products. Domestic sales revenues increased to $434,192 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, compared to $381,792 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. Management believes the increase in sales revenues is due to increased domestic sales for water/waste water and mining industrial automation projects during the first six months of 2014. During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, no one single customer, comprised more than 10% of the Company’s sales revenues.
Domestic segment operating loss was $13,556 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 as compared with a segment operating loss of $33,083 for the same quarter of 2013, due to increased sales revenues for the segment during the second quarter of 2014.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, the Company’s domestic operations represented 81% of the Company’s total sales revenues. Year to date domestic sales revenues increased to $839,361 as of June 30, 2014 compared to $649,625 for the same period of 2013. Management believes the increase in year to date sales revenues is due to increased engineering services and core product sales during the first half of 2014.
9
Year to date domestic segment operating loss was $40,836 for the period ended June 30, 2014 as compared with a segment operating loss of $134,661 for the same period of 2013, due to increased sales during the first six months of 2014.
Foreign Revenues
The Company’s foreign operating segment represented 18% of the Company’s total net revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. The foreign operating segment is based wholly in the United States and maintains no assets outside of the United States. The foreign operating segment sells ESTeem modem products, accessories and service primarily through foreign resellers, as well as directly to end customers of the Company’s products located outside the United States.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Company had $98,070 in foreign export sales, amounting to 18% of total net revenues of the Company for the quarter, compared with foreign export sales of $111,815 for the same quarter of 2013. Management believes the decrease in foreign sales revenues was due to one-time end of life purchase last year. Revenues from foreign countries during the second quarter of 2014 consist primarily of revenues from product sales to Hungary and Peru. No foreign sales to a single customer comprised 10% or more of the Company's product sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. Products purchased by foreign customers were used primarily in industrial automation applications. We believe the majority of foreign export sales are the results of the Company’s Latin American sales staff, EST foreign reseller activity, and the Company’s internet website presence.
Operating profit for the foreign segment was $27,368 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 as compared with a net operating profit of $21,414 for the same period of 2013, due to decreased manufacturing over-head for the segment during the second quarter of 2014.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, the Company had $192,724 in foreign export sales, amounting to 19% of total sales revenues of the Company for the period, compared with foreign export sales of $257,395 for the same period of 2013. Management believes the decrease in foreign sales revenues is due to lower than anticipated foreign sales revenues from projects in Mexico and Croatia during the first half of 2014.
Year to date foreign segment operating income was $48,458 for the period ended June 30, 2014 as compared with a segment operating income of $58,619 for the same period of 2013, due to decreased sales for the segment during the first half of 2014.
BACKLOG:
The Corporation had a sales order backlog of approximately $14,895 as of June 30, 2014. The Company’s customers generally place orders on an "as needed basis". Shipment for most of the Company’s products is generally made within 1 to 15 working days after receipt of customer orders, with the exception of ongoing, scheduled projects, and custom designed equipment.
COST OF SALES:
Cost of sales percentage for the second quarter of 2014 and 2013 was 39% and 42%, respectively. The cost of sales decrease for the second quarter of 2014 is the result of the product mix for items sold during the quarter having favorable profit margin when compared with the same period of 2013.
OPERATING EXPENSES:
Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2014 increased $5,321 from the second quarter of 2013. The following is an outline of operating expenses:
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE:
During the second quarter of 2014, General and Administrative expenses increased $4,763 to $71,589 from the same quarter of 2013, due to software updates.
10
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT:
Research and Development expenses decreased $2,877 to $65,793 during the second quarter of 2014, when compared with the same period in 2013 due to decreased subcontracted engineering expertise.
MARKETING:
During the second quarter of 2014, marketing expenses decreased $2,354 to $122,686 from the same period in 2013, due to decreased trade show expenses.
CUSTOMER SERVICE:
Customer service expenses during the second quarter of 2014 increased $3,789 to $31,373 when compared with the same quarter of 2013 due to increased department related wages during the period.
INTEREST AND DIVIDEND INCOME:
The Corporation earned $2,977 in interest and dividend income during the quarter ended June 30, 2014. Sources of this income were money market accounts and certificates of deposit.
NET INCOME (LOSS):
The Company had net income of $12,912 for the second quarter of 2014, compared to a net loss of $6,291 for the same quarter of 2013. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded net income of $6,962 compared with a net loss of $51,903 for the same period of 2013. The reduction in the Company’s net loss is the result of increased sales revenues and increased gross margin during the second quarter of 2014.
B. Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Corporation's current asset to current liabilities ratio at June 30, 2014 was 51.6:1 compared to 47.7:1 at December 31, 2013. For the quarter ending June 30, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $880,715; compared to cash and cash equivalent holdings of $896,580 at December 31, 2013. The Company had certificates of deposit investments in the amount of $1,213,000 as of June 30, 2014 as compared to $1,414,000 as of December 31, 2013.
Accounts receivable increased to $205,708 as of June 30, 2014, from December 31, 2013 levels of $72,783, due to sales revenue timing differences between the second quarter of 2014 and year-end 2013. Inventories increased to $706,403 as of June 30, 2014, from December 31, 2013 levels of $625,692, due primarily to inventory purchases for the production of the new ESTeem 210 and 195 products. The Company's fixed assets, net of depreciation, increased to $66, 898 as of June 30, 2014, from December 31, 2013 levels of $31,372.
As of June 30, 2014, the Company’s accounts payable balance was $10,983 as compared with $8,669 at December 31, 2013, and reflects amounts owed for inventory items, contracted services, and state tax liabilities. Accrued liabilities as of June 30, 2014 were $47,313, compared with $50,332 at December 31, 2013, and reflect items such as accrued vacation benefits and payroll tax liability.
In Management's opinion, the Company's cash and cash equivalent reserves, and working capital at June 30, 2014 is sufficient to satisfy requirements for operations, capital expenditures, and other expenditures as may arise during the remainder of 2014.
The Company did not declare or issue any cash dividends during 2013 or 2014.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS: The above discussion may contain forward looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. In addition to the factors discussed above, among other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: competitive factors such as rival wireless architectures and price pressures; availability of third party component products at reasonable prices; inventory risks due to shifts in market demand and/or price erosion of purchased components; change in product mix, and risk factors that are listed in the Company’s reports and registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not applicable
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
The Company’s Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of Company assets are made in accordance with Management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected.
An evaluation has been performed under the supervision and with the participation of our Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and the operation of our "disclosure controls and procedures" (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of June 30, 2014. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer have determined that there was a material weakness affecting our internal control over financial reporting and, as a result of that weakness, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2014.
The material weakness is as follows:
We did not maintain effective controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties as the same officer and employee was responsible for the initiating and recording of transactions, thereby creating segregation of duties weaknesses. Due to the (1) significance of segregation of duties to the preparation of reliable financial statements; (2) the significance of potential misstatement that could have resulted due to the deficient controls; and, (3) the absence of sufficient other mitigating controls; we determined that this control deficiency resulted in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement or lack of disclosure within the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.
Management has evaluated and continues to evaluate, avenues for mitigating our internal controls weaknesses, but mitigating controls have been deemed to be impractical and prohibitively costly due to the size of our organization at the current time. Management does not foresee implementing a cost effective method of mitigating our internal control weaknesses in the near term. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
There have been no changes during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal controls over financial reporting.
