Financial report summary
?Management Discussion
- Sales increased 22% from 2017 to 2018. Sales of all Company products were higher in 2018 with the most significant contribution to the increased sales coming from planetarium products.
- The volume of new orders in 2018 was less than the sales recorded resulting in a decrease in our sales backlog from $27,360 as of December 31, 2017 to $17,366 as of December 31, 2018. Approximately $1,200 of the decrease in the backlog was due to the adoption of Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Otherwise the decrease was attributable to high 2018 planetarium sales and lower bookings of dome products in 2018. We anticipate that approximately 90% of the 2018 backlog will be converted to sales in 2019.
- Our gross profit percentage was slightly higher in 2018 when compared to 2017. There were variations in gross margins among customer projects within the usual range which, when combined, resulted in comparable margins for all of the Company’s products in 2017 and 2018.
