NOTE 6.NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

The Company calculatesWe calculate basic net income (loss) per share by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted income per share reflects the effects of potentially dilutive securities, in income generating periods, which consist entirely of outstanding stock options and performance awards.

The following table presents reconciliations of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share computations for net income.income (loss). Because we incurred a net loss for the six months ended December 31, 2023, basic and diluted loss were the same as the inclusion of 64,800 common shares potentially issuable under the terms of outstanding performance awards would have had an anti-dilutive effect.

NOTE 7.INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized fortemporarydifferences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more-likely-than-notmore-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes and the recoverability of our deferred tax assets. Such determination is based primarily on our historical taxable income, with some consideration given to our estimates of future taxable income by jurisdictions in which we operate and the period over which our deferred tax assets would berecoverable.

We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits when applicable. As of MarchDecember 31, 2023 and 2022, we recognized accrued interest of $59,00061,000 and $70,00054,000, respectively, related to unrecognized tax benefits.

We are subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as income tax of multiple state tax jurisdictions. We are currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ended June 30, 20192020 and later. Our state income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ended June 30, 20192020 and later. However, because of our prior net operating losses and research credit carryovers, our tax years from June 30, 2007 are open to audit. We do not anticipate a significant change to the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

NOTE 8.SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Through June 2014, we had two equity compensation plans, the Second Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Option Plan (the “Employee Stock Option Plan”) and the Amended and Restated 2004 Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “Directors’ Stock Option Plan”) (collectively, the “Former Stock Option Plans”). The Employee Stock Option Plan and Director’s Stock Option Plan were terminated in June 2014 and December 2014, respectively.

In September 2016, our Board approved the establishment of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, which was approved by our shareholders at our 2016 Annual Meeting. TheOur 2016 Equity Incentive Plan provides for the award of up to 1,500,000 shares of our common stock in the form of incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted stock units, performance awards, and other stock-based awards. As of MarchDecember 31, 2023, 200,000 performance awards and 372,000 non-qualified stock options have been granted under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan.

Former Stock Option Plans

Nooptions were granted under the Former Stock Option Plans during the three or nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

As of March 31, 2023, there was no unrecognized compensation cost under the Former Stock Option Plans, as all remaining outstanding stock options have been exercised during fiscal 2023. The following is a summary of stock option activity for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

Performance Awards

In December 2017, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors granted 200,000 performance awards to our employees, which will generally be paid in shares of our common stock. Whether any performance awards vest, and the amount that does vest, is tied to the completion of service periods that range from 7 months to 9.5 years at inception and the achievement of our common stock trading at certain pre-determined prices. The weighted average fair value of the performance awards granted was $4.46, calculated using the weighted average fair market value for each award, using a Monte Carlo simulation. In February 2020, the Compensation Committee reallocated 48,000 previously forfeited awards, having the same remaining terms and conditions, to certain other employees. The weighted average fair value of the performance awards reallocated in 2020 was $16.90, calculated using the weighted average fair market value for each award, using a Monte Carlo simulation.

NOTE 10.NOTES PAYABLE AND FINANCING TRANSACTIONS

Minnesota Bank & Trust

 

On November 6, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), PDEX Franklin, a newly created wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, purchased an approximate 25,000 square foot industrial building in Tustin, California (the “Franklin Property (See Note 2)Property”). A portion of the purchase price was financed by a loan from MBT to PDEX Franklin in the principal amount of approximately $5.2 million (the “Property Loan”) pursuant to a Loan Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, between PDEX Franklin and MBT (the “Property Loan Agreement”) and corresponding Term Note (the “Property Note”) issued by PDEX Franklin in favor of MBT on the Closing Date. The Property Loan is secured by the Franklin Property pursuant to a Deed of Trust with Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing in favor of MBT (the “Deed”) and by an Assignment of Leases and Rents by PDEX Franklin in favor of MBT (the “Rents Assignment”). We paid loan origination fees to MBT on the Closing Date in the amount of $26,037.

The Property Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.55% per annum, which is subject to a 3% increase upon an event of default. Accrued interest was paid on December 1, 2020, and both principal and interest in the amount of approximately $30,000 are due and payable on the first day of each subsequent month until the maturity date of November 1, 2030 (the “Maturity Date”), at which time a balloon payment in the amount of $3.1 million is due. Any prepayment of the Property Loan (other than monthly scheduled interest and principal payments), is subject to a prepayment fee equal to 4% of the principal amount prepaid for any prepayment made during the first or second year, 3% of the principal amount prepaid for any prepayment made during the third or fourth year, 2% of the principal amount prepaid for any prepayment made during the fifth or sixth year, and 1% of the principal amount prepaid for any prepayment made during the seventh or eighth year. The Property Loan Agreement, Property Note, Deed, and Rents Assignment each contain representations, warranties, covenants, and events of default that are customary for a loan of this type. The balance owed on the Property Loan at MarchDecember 31, 2023 is $4,794,0004,649,000.

 

On the Closing Date, we also entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with MBT (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), providing for a $7,525,000 amended and restated term loan (the “Term Loan A”), a $1,000,000 term loan (the “Term Loan B”), and a $2,000,000 amended and restated revolving loan, evidenced by an Amended and Restated Term Note A (“Term Note A”), a Term Note B, and an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note (the “Revolving Note”) made by us in favor of MBT. The loans under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets pursuant to a Security Agreement entered into on September 6, 2018, between the Company and MBT. The Term Note A had an outstanding principal balance of $3,770,331 as of the Closing Date and could be borrowed against through May 30, 2021 (the “Commitment Period”). During the third quarter ended March 31, 2021, we borrowed an additional $3,000,000 against Term Note A for the purpose of repurchasing shares of our common stock. The Term Note B had a zero balance as of the Closing Date and we borrowed the full $1,000,000 during the third quarter ended March 31, 2021, for the purpose of making improvements to the Franklin Property.

The Term Loan A matures on November 1, 2027, and bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.84% per annum. Initial payments on the Term Loan A of interest only were due on December 1, 2020 through June 1, 2021. Commencing July 1, 2021 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until the maturity date, we are required to make payments of principal and interest on Term Loan A of approximately $97,000 plus any additional accrued and unpaid interest through the date of payment. The balance owed on Term Loan A as of MarchDecember 31, 2023, is $5,075,0004,337,000.

 

The Term Loan B matures on November 1, 2027, and bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.84% per annum. Initial payments on the Term Loan B of interest only were due on December 1, 2020 through June 1, 2021. Commencing July 1, 2021 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until the maturity date, we are required to make payments of principal and interest on Term Loan B of approximately $15,000, plus any additional accrued and unpaid interest through the date of payment. The balance owing on Term Note B was $756,000646,000 on MarchDecember 31, 2023.

On December 29, 2022 (the “Amendment Date”), we entered into Amendment No. 2 to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) with MBT, which amends the Amended Credit Agreement and provides for a supplemental line of credit in the amount of $3,000,000$3,000,000 (the “Supplemental Loan”). The Supplemental Loan is evidenced by a Supplemental Revolving Credit Note (the “Supplemental Note”) made by us in favor of MBT. The purpose of the Supplemental Loan is for financing acquisitions and repurchasing shares of our common stock. The Supplemental Loan may be borrowed against from time to time through its current maturity date of December 29, 2024,2025, on the terms set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement. As of MarchDecember 31, 2023, no amounts have been drawn against the Supplemental Loan.

The Revolving Loan was also amended (the “Amended Revolving Loan”) in connection with the Amendment to extend the maturity date from November 5, 2023 to December 29, 2024, to increase the Revolving Loan facility from $2,000,000 to $7,000,000, and to increase the interest rate on the Revolving Loan (as described below), evidenced by an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note (the “Amended Revolving Note”) made by us in favor of MBT. The Amended Revolving Loan may be borrowed against from time to time by us through its current maturity date of December 29, 2025, on the terms set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement. On December 29, 2023, we entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement to amend the termination date of the Supplemental Loan and Amended Revolving Loan from December 29, 2024, to December 29, 2025. As of MarchDecember 31, 2023, we had drawn $1,800,0002,500,000 against the Amended Revolving Loan. Loan origination fees in the amount of $16,000 each were paid to MBT in conjunction with the Amended Revolving Loan and the Supplemental Loan.Loan in conjunction with both the Amendment on December 29, 2022 and on December 29, 2023.

The Amended Revolving Loan and Supplemental Loan bear interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) 5.0% or (b) SOFR for a one-month period from the website of the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited plus 2.5% (the “Adjusted Term SOFR Rate”). Commencing on the first day of each month after we initially borrow against the Amended Revolving Loan and/or the Supplemental Loan and each month thereafter until maturity, we are required to pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the Amended Revolving Loan and Supplemental Loan through the date of payment. Any principal on the Amended Revolving Loan and/or Supplemental Loan that is not previously prepaid shall be due and payable in full on the maturity date (or earlier termination of the Amended Revolving Loan and/or Supplemental Loan).

Any payment on the Term Loan A, the Term Loan B, the Amended Revolving Loan or the Supplemental Loan (collectively, the “Loans”) not made within seven days after the due date is subject to a late payment fee equal to 5% of the overdue amount. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, the interest rate of all Loans will be increased by 3% and MBT may, at its option, declare all of the Loans immediately due and payable in full.

 

The Amended Credit Agreement, Amended Security Agreement, Term Note A, Term Note B, Amended Revolving Note and Supplemental Note contain representations and warranties, affirmative, negative and financial covenants, and events of default that are customary for loans of this type. We believe that we are in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of MarchDecember 31, 2023, but there can be no assurance that we will remain in compliance for the duration of the term of these loans.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur could materially change the financial statements. Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the three and ninesix months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023, to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.2023.

Business Strategy and Future Plans

Our business today is almost entirely driven by sales of our medical devices. Many of our significant customers place purchase orders for specific products that were developed under various development and/or supply agreements. Our customers may request that we design and manufacture a custom surgical device or they may hire us as a contract manufacturer to manufacture a product of their own design. In either case, we have extensive experience with autoclavable, battery-powered and electric, multi-function surgical drivers and shavers. We continue to focus a significant percentage of our time and resources on providing outstanding products and service to our valued principal customers. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, our largest customer executed an amendment to our existing supply agreement such that we shall continue to supply their surgical handpieces to them through calendar 2025.

 

Simultaneously, we are working to build top-line sales through active proposals of new medical device products with new and existing customers. Our patented adaptive torque-limiting software has been very well received in the CMF and thoracic markets. Additionally, we have other significant engineering projects under way described more fully below under “Results of Operations.”

 

In November 2020, we purchased an approximate 25,000 square foot industrial building in Tustin, California (the “Franklin Property”). This building is located approximately four miles from our Irvine, California headquarters and was acquired to provide us additional capacity for our expected continued future growth, including anticipated expanded capacity for the manufacture of batteries and new products. We substantially completed the build-out of the property in the first quarter of the prior fiscal year. Currently, we are actively engaged in various verification and validation activities and we expect we will beginbegan operations in the new facility during the fourth quarter of this fiscal year.2023 and believe that the additional capacity will allow for our continued expected growth.

 

In summary, our current objectives are focused primarily on maintaining our relationships with our current medical device customers, expanding our manufacturing capacity with the addition of the Franklin Property, investing in research and development activities to design unique medical devices as well as Pro-Dex branded drivers to leverage our torque-limiting software, expansion of our manufacturing capacity through the commencement of operations at the Franklin Property, and promoting active product development proposals to new and existing customers for both orthopedic shavers and screw drivers for a multitude of surgical applications, and other medical devices, while monitoring closely the progress of all these individual endeavors. Our investments in research and development have historically increased disproportionately to our growth in revenue and we anticipate this may continue in future periods. These expenditures are being made in an effort to release new products and garner new customer relationships. This fiscal year, however, the majority of our engineering efforts relate to customer funded non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) projects, which costs are reclassified to cost of sales. While we expect revenue growth in the future, it may not be a consistent trajectory but rather periods of incremental growth that current expenditures are helping to create. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in any of these objectives.

COVID-19 Pandemic

We have adjusted certain policies and procedures based on applicable national, state, and local emergency orders and safety guidance that may be issued from time to time, in order to effectively manage our business during the pandemic and to keep our employees safe. These measures have changed over time and continue to change as our specific circumstances change.

 

While we have yet to see any significant decline in our customer orders, we have received and accepted some customer requests to delay the shipment of their existing orders. We are focused on the health and safety of all those we serve – our customers, our communities, our employees, and our suppliers. We are supporting our customers according to their priorities and working with them to the degree that we can offer relief in the form of delayed shipments. We are focused on continuity of supply by working with our suppliers, some of whom have delivered our orders late and are quoting longer lead times.

During fiscal 2022, we began to see some challenges in our supply chain in the form of delayed shipments, longer lead times, higher prices, and surcharges, much of which our suppliers indicate have been caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. We have largely been able to mitigate our biggest supply chain concerns by sourcing replacement chips through alternative suppliers, albeit at much higher prices, for many of our printed circuit board assemblies. In so doing, our cost of sales increased during the second half of fiscal 2022 and thus far in fiscal 2023. We continue to implement plans and processes to mitigate these challenges that many manufacturers similarly face. Our long-term prospects remain positive, and we believe these challenges will negatively impact us only in the short-term.

Sales of our medical device products increased $463,000, or 7%, and $432,000,$0.2 million, or 2%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023, and increased slightly by $113,000, or 1%, for the six months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year. Our medical device revenue to our largest customer, included in orthopedic sales above, increased $633,000 and $1.0 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year. Additionally, recurring revenue from distributors of CMF drivers increased $793,000 and $124,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year

in part due to the launch of a new driver to our existing largest customer during the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. Our thoracic sales revenue decreased $963,000 and $693,000, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year, due primarily as a result of our customer for our thoracic driver filling the near-term requirements of its distribution network.

Sales of our compact pneumatic air motors, reported as industrialIndustrial and scientific sales above, decreased $61,000,increased $31,000, or 19%15%, and $84,000,decreased $51,000, or 11%12%, respectively, for the three and ninesix months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023, compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year. These are legacy products with no substantive marketing efforts. efforts. Our NREnon-recurring (“NRE”) and proto-type revenue increased $421,000,decreased $145,000, or 77%30%, and $1.5 million,$863,000, or 175%62%, for the three and ninesix months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023, compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year, due to an increasea decrease in billable contracts for various NRE projects undertaken for our customers.

Sales of our dental products and components decreased $160,000,

Repair revenue increased $1.2 million, or 79%58%, and $166,000,$3.0 million, or 48%68%, respectively, for the three and ninesix months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023, compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year. In the prior fiscal year, we sold component inventory to our largest customer used in their legacy design which did not recur in the current fiscal year. We expect future declines in this area as we are no longer manufacturing dental products, but rather are simply selling remaining component inventory.

Repair revenue increased $3.2 million or 189%, and $4.3 million, or 102%, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal yearprimarily due to increased repairsupgrades of the orthopedic handpiece we sell tohandpieces for our largest customer. This increase was expected, as we have been upgradingasked to upgrade handpieces for this customer to theits next generation, which design was released to manufactureas well as include the advance replacement of certain components, beginning in the third quarter of fiscalDecember 2022.Additionally, we completed negotiations on repair pricing and terms with this customer during the three months ended March 31, 2023, and received an additional $520,000 in compensation during the third quarter of this fiscal year, for handpieces upgraded between July 2022 and December 2022 and reached an agreement for future consideration which we expect to recognize in a future fiscal year. We expect to continue to see increases incontinued heightened repair revenue albeitfrom these upgrades for at reduced margins, forleast the remainder of this fiscal year because this customer has requested that we perform an enhanced repair on each handpiece, which includes the advance replacement of certain components.year.

At MarchDecember 31, 2023, we had a backlog of approximately $18.8$29.1 million, of which $8.5$18.9 million is scheduled to be delivered in the fourth quarter of fiscal 20232024 and the balance is scheduled to be delivered next fiscal year and beyond.year. Our backlog represents firm purchase orders received and acknowledged from our customers and does not include all revenue expected to be generated from existing customer contracts. We may experience variability in our new order bookings due to various reasons, including, but not limited to, the timing of major new product launches and customer planned inventory builds. However, we do not typically experience seasonal fluctuations in our shipments and revenues.

Cost of sales for the three and six months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023, increased $2.9$1.1 million, or 45%13%, and $1.3 million, or 8%, respectively, compared to the corresponding periodperiods of the prior fiscal year. The increase in total costs of sales was caused by the 41% increase in revenue for the same period. Under-absorption of manufacturing costs increased by $201,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due in part to our inability to absorb our fixed costs, which were not reduced in the third quarter of the current fiscal year in anticipation of future revenue growth. Costs relating to inventory and warranty charges decreased $385,000 for the third quarter ended March 31, 2023 compared to the third quarter of the prior fiscal year, largely due to a reduction in warranty expenses.

Gross profit increased by approximately $953,000, or 33%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, consistent with the overall increase in revenue. Gross margin as a percentage of sales decreased by approximately 2 percentage points compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due primarily to increased under-absorption of manufacturing costs as a result of additional indirect costs in our manufacturing, assembly, and quality departments, especially related to ongoing verification and validation activities for the Franklin Property.

Cost of sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 increased by $6.3 million, or 32%, compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Although some of the increase in cost of sales is consistent with the 21%12% and 10% increase in revenue for the same period, the reasons for which are discussed above, the enhanced repair program implemented for our largest customer includes the advance replacement of certain components which has contributed to a $1.4 million increase in cost of sales. Additionally, total cost of sales reflects a $1.1 million increase in under-absorbed manufacturing costs due to actual production hours being less than planned as well as the additional indirect costs in our manufacturing, assembly,three and quality operations described above. Inventory and warranty charges decreased by approximately $383,000, or 57%, for the ninesix months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023, compared to the corresponding periodperiods of the prior fiscal year. Additionally, under(over)-absorption for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023, decreased $727,000, and $1.3 million, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year, duebased upon increasing our labor and overhead rates to reduced component inventory write-downs as a result of sourcing high priced components forbetter absorb our printed circuit board assemblies in the prior fiscal year.indirect costs.

Selling expenses consist of salaries and other personnel-related expenses for our business development department, as well as advertising and marketing expenses, and travel and related costs incurred in generating and maintaining our customer relationships. Selling expenses for the three and ninesix months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023 increased $4,000, or 20%,decreased $31,000 and $67,000, or 85%,$59,000, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of fiscal 2022.2023. The increasedecrease in both periods is primarily due to increaseddecreased sales commissions.

General and administrative expenses (“G&A”) consistconsists of salaries and other personnel-related expenses of our accounting, finance and human resource personnel, as well as costs for outsourced information technology services, professional fees, directors’ fees, and other costs and expenses attributable to being a public company. G&A decreased $136,000increased $249,000 and $419,000,$220,000, respectively, during the three and ninesix months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023, when compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year. The decreasesincreases relate primarily to reduced legalincreased professional fees (consisting primarily of audit and settlement expensesvaluation fees, related to employment mattersthe restatement of our financial statements as referenced in Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report) and reduced non-cash compensation expense related to stock compensation,increased personnel costs, offset by increaseddecreased legal fees related to intellectual property matters.

Research and development costs generally consist of salaries, employer-paidemployer paid benefits, and other personnel- related costs of our engineering and support personnel, as well as allocated facility and information technology costs, professional and consulting fees, patent-related fees, lab costs, materials, and travel and related costs incurred in the development and support of our products. Research and development costs for the three and six months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023, increased $55,000, or 8%,$321,000 and $198,000, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year. Research and development costs forThese increases are primarily due to a reduction of billable customer projects in the nine months ended March 31, 2023, decreased $145,000, or 6%,current fiscal year compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year. This relates to increased personnel and related expense offset by decreased spending on internal engineering projects and a shift to increased spending on billable development projects. When our engineers are engaged in a billable projectprojects as opposed to an internal project,projects, costs get shifted to cost of sales instead of research and development.

Although the majority of our research and development costs relate to sustaining activities related to products we currently manufacture and sell, we have created a product roadmap to develop future products. Many of our product development efforts are undertaken only upon completion of an analysis of the size of the market, our ability to differentiate our product from our competitors’, as well as an analysis of our specific sales prospects with new and/or existing customers. The research and development costs represent between 36%31% and 41% of total operating expenses for all periods presented and are expected to increase in the future as we continue to invest in product development efforts.our business. The amount spent on internal projects under development is summarized below (in thousands):

As we introduce new products into the market, we expect to see an increase in sustaining and other engineering expenses. Typical examples of sustaining engineering activities include, but are not limited to, end-of- life component replacement, especially in electronic components found in our printed circuit board assemblies, analysis of customer complaint data to improve process and design, replacement and enhancement of tooling and fixtures used in our machine shop, assembly operations, and inspection areas to improve efficiency and through-put. Additionally, these costs include development projects that may be in their infancy and may or may not result in a full-fledged product development effort.effort or that later may ultimately be abandoned.

 

Interest & Other Income

Interest income for the three and ninesix months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023, and 2022 includes interest and dividends from our money market accounts and investment portfolio.

Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments

The unrealized gain (loss) on investments consists of our investment portfolio described more fully in Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report. All of these investments are recorded at estimated fair value and as of December 31, 2023, all of these investments relate to common stock of publicly traded companies whose stock price is subject to significant volatility.

Interest Expense

Interest expense consists primarily of interest expense related to the notes payableour Minnesota Bank and Trust (“MBT”) loans described more fully in Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report.

The unrealized gain (loss) on marketable equity investments relates to our investment portfolio more fully describedeffective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 is 19% and 26%, respectively. The decrease in Note 4the current year effective tax rate is due primarily to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhererelease of a $60,000 valuation allowance related to previously recognized unrealized losses on investments. The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 is 45% and 24%, respectively. The increase in this report.the current year effective tax rate is similarly due to the release of the valuation allowance recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2024 and is a tax benefit since we have a year-to-date pre-tax loss.

 

Gain on Sale of Investments

During the first quarter ended September 30, 2022, we sold some of the stocks in our portfolio of equity investments receiving proceeds of $88,000 and recording a gain on the sale in the amount of $7,000.

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, is slightly less than our combined expected federal and applicable state corporate income tax rates due to federal and state research credits. Additionally, the current year effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2023 is less than our combined expected federal and applicable state corporate income tax rates due to a tax benefit recognized as a result of common stock awarded to employees under previously granted performance awards in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 as described more fully in Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report, as well as unrealized gains on our marketable equity investments.

Financing Facilities & Liquidity Requirements for the next twelve monthsNext Twelve Months

As of MarchDecember 31, 2023, our working capital was $21.0$26.6 million. We currently believe that our existing cash and cash equivalent balances together with our accounts receivable balances will provide us sufficient funds to satisfy our cash requirements as our business is currently conducted for at least the next 12 months. In addition to our cash and cash equivalent balances, we expect to derive a portion of our liquidity from our cash flows from operations. We may also liquidate some or all of our investment portfolio or borrow further against our $7.0 million Amended Revolving Loan with MBT (see Note 10 to condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report), undermarketable equity investments, which we had availabilityan estimated fair market value of $5.2$7.3 million as of MarchDecember 31, 2023.

    

We are focused on preserving our cash balances by monitoring expenses, identifying cost savings, and investing only in those development programs and products that we believe will most likely contribute to our profitability. As we execute on our current strategy, however, we may require debt and/or equity capital to fund our working capital needs and requirements for capital equipment to support our manufacturing and inspection processes. In particular, we have experienced negative operating cash flow in the past, especially as we procure long-lead time materials to satisfy our backlog, which can be subject to extensive variability. We believe that if we need to raise additional capital to fund our operations, beyond the cash available from the strategies mentioned above, we can do so by selling additional shares ofborrowing against our common stock under the ATM Agreement.$7.0 million Amended Revolving Loan with MBT (See Note 1110 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report).

Investment Strategy

We invest surplus cash from time to time through our Investment Committee, which is comprised of one management director, Mr.Richard Van Kirk, and two non-management directors, Mr.Raymond (“Ray”) Cabillot and Mr.Nicholas (“Nick”) Swenson, who chairs the committee. Both Mr. CabillotNick and Mr. SwensonRay are active investors with extensive portfolio management expertise. We leverage the experience of these committee members to make investment decisions for the investment of our surplus operating capital or borrowed funds. Additionally, many of our securities holdings include stocks of public companies that either Messrs. SwensonNick or CabillotRay or both may own from time to time either individually or through the investment funds that they manage, or other companies whose boards they sit on. The Investment Committee approved each of the investments comprising the $2.7$7.3 million of marketable public equity securities that we held at Marchon December 31, 2023.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (the(our principal executivefinancial officer and principalfinancial officer, respectively) conducted an accounting officer) have concluded based on their evaluation as of the design and operation ofDecember 31, 2023, that our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)). are not effective due to a material weakness. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Companycompany in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officers,officer and principal accounting officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In accordance with SEC rules, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participationA material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of the effectiveness, as of March 31, 2023, of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defineddeficiencies, in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). “Internalinternal control over financial reporting” includes those policiesreporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual and procedures that:

(1)pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the issuer;
(2)provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and
(3)provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 

Based interim financial statements will not be detected or prevented on a timely basis. A material weakness was discovered relating to the valuation and disclosure of level 3 investments during fiscal 2023 as well as level 2 investments for the three months ended December 31, 2023. We are continuing to remediate this weakness. While we no longer hold any level 3 investments, all of the investments in our portfolio continue to be considered level 2 investments because they are either thinly traded, or we own a substantial percentage of total outstanding shares. While we believe that evaluation as of Marchour fair value assessment and disclosures at December 31, 2023, are appropriate, we are continuing to monitor our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

internal controls.

 Internal Control Overover Financial Reporting

During the three months ended MarchDecember 31, 2023, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any system of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
