Item 1. Description of Business
(a) Business Development
Environmental Tectonics Corporation ("ETC" or the "Company"), a Pennsylvania corporation, incorporated in 1969, is principally engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of software driven products used to A) create and monitor the physiological effects of motion on humans and equipment and B) control, modify, simulate and measure environmental conditions. These products include aircrew training systems, entertainment products, sterilizers, environmental and hyperbaric chambers, and other products which involve similar manufacturing techniques and engineering technologies.
Since February 26, 1999, there has been no material change in the Company's mode of conducting business.
(b) Business of the Company
The company operates in two primary business segments, Aircrew Training Systems and Industrial Group.
Aircrew Training Systems. This segment includes three primary product groups.
The Company's aircrew training devices are used for medical research, advanced flight training, and for the indoctrination and testing of military and commercial pilots. The major devices sold in this product area are commercial flight simulators, night vision trainers, water survival training equipment, disorientation training equipment, human centrifuges, ejection seat trainers and vehicle and tank simulators. The Company provides operation and maintenance services for installed equipment it manufactures as well as equipment produced by others.
The Company's entertainment products consist of motion-based simulation rides and other products.
The Company's Disaster Management Systems line includes real-time interactive training programs that allow instruction on various disaster situations.
The aircrew training system class of products as a whole represented 75%, 84% and 75% of consolidated revenues of the Company for the years ended February 25, 2000, February 26,1999 and February 27, 1998, respectively.
Industrial Group. This segment includes three primary product groups:
Sterilizers. The Company manufactures steam and gas sterilizers used for various industrial and pharmaceutical applications. The Company concentrates on marketing the larger custom-designed sterilizers to the pharmaceutical and medical device industries.
Environmental Systems and Other Products. The Company's environmental systems business consists of the design and fabrication of sampling and analysis systems, and test equipment and systems. The simulation systems generally consist of an enclosed chamber with instrumentation and equipment which enable the customer to control and modify such environmental factors as temperature, pressure, humidity, wind velocity and gas content to produce desired conditions. These products include controlled air systems for automotive companies and environmental chambers
The Company's Hyperbaric line includes monoplace and multiplace chambers for decompression and wound care applications.
Sales in this class of products were 25%, 16% and 25% of consolidated revenues of the Company for the years ended February 25,2000, February 26, 1999 and February 27, 1998, respectively.
The Company also provides control operator repair and upgrades and maintenance service for its own and other manufacturers' equipment.
Marketing
The Company currently markets its products and services primarily through its sales offices and employees. At February 25, 2000, approximately 19 employees were committed to sales and marketing functions. The Company uses branch offices in the United Kingdom, the Middle East, and Asia as well as the services of approximately 100 independent sales organizations in seeking foreign orders for its products.
Product Development
New products and improvements in existing products are being continually developed in response to inquiries from customers and to management's determination that particular products should be produced or significantly improved. Although the Company does not have a separate research and development group, there are a few technical personnel whose main activity is the development and integration of new technologies into our existing products. These personnel include the Vice-President of Engineering and the Vice-President of New Product Development whose additional activity is the introduction of product extensions and new applications of existing technology.
Within the Aircrew Training Segment, product development emphasizes enhancing control systems and software graphics and exploring commercial possibilities. The Company's product development efforts will be focused on three areas:
- Disaster Management Simulation. The Company is in production of a major contract from the City of Chicago to develop, install and maintain a computer-based Incident Command Simulator. The company will continue to explore product applications and extensions to this Intelligent Virtual Reality product.
- G-force and Disorientation trainers. The Company is updating all software to a windows based platform.
- Entertainment. The Company is evaluating product extensions to motion based amusement rides.
On April 16, 1999, the Company formed a new wholly owned subsidiary, Entertainment Technology Corporation, to handle all of the Company's future entertainment projects. Product development in this class will emphasize entertainment applications of our proven ATS simulation technology.
The Company reported research and development costs of $920,000, $397,000 and $148,000 for the years ended February 25,2000, February 26, 1999 and February 27, 1998, respectively. However, the majority of the Company's research and development efforts are not separately identified and recorded. Instead, they are expressed as part of project job costs in the cost of sales.
Supplies
The components being used in the assembly of systems and the parts used to manufacture the Company's products are purchased from equipment manufacturers, electronics supply firms and others. To date, the Company has had no difficulty in obtaining supplies. Further, all raw materials, parts, components, and other supplies used by the Company in the manufacture of its products can be obtained at competitive prices from alternate sources should existing sources of supply become unavailable.
Patents and Trademarks
The Company has no patents or trademarks which it considers significant to its operations, except a patent on the GYROLAB Spatial Disorientation Trainer which expires in December 2004.
Customers
In the current year and recent past, it has been the Company's experience that a substantial portion of sales are made to a small number of customers that vary within any given year. The Company's business does not depend upon repeat orders from these same customers. Sales of aircrew training systems are made principally to U.S. and foreign governmental agencies. Sales of sterilizers and environmental systems are made to commercial and governmental entities worldwide.
In fiscal 2000, the Company's major customers included Mend's International $8,107,000, the United Kingdom Ministry of Defense $4,821,000, and the Walt Disney companies, $3,681,000. These companies do not have any relationship with the Company other than as customers.
Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales
During the years ended February 25,2000, February 26, 1999 and February 27, 1998, approximately $1,587,000 (5%), $1,158,000 (4.0%) and $2,936,000 (10%), respectively, of the Company's net revenues were attributable to contracts with agencies of the U.S. Government or with other customers who had prime contracts with agencies of the federal government.
During the years ended February 25,2000, February 26, 1999 and February 27, 1998, $23,907,000 (69%), $22,876,000 (78%) and $17,490,000 (60%), respectively, of the Company's net revenues were attributable to export sales or sales for export. (See Note 11 to the Company's consolidated financial statements incorporated herein by reference to the Annual Report.) On export sales, customers' obligations to the Company are normally secured by irrevocable letters of credit based on the credit worthiness of the Customer.
The Company does not believe that the distribution of its sales for any particular period is necessarily indicative of the distribution expected for any other period.
A large portion of the Company's sales are under long-term contracts requiring more than one year to complete. The Company accounts for sales under long-term contracts on the percentage of completion basis. (See Note 1 to consolidated financial statements incorporated herein by reference to the annual report).
The Company's U.S. Government contracts contain standard terms permitting termination for the convenience of the Government. In the event of termination of such contracts, the Company is entitled to receive reimbursement on the basis of work completed (cost incurred plus a reasonable profit), recording the amounts anticipated to be recovered from termination claims in income as soon as those amounts can be reasonably determined rather than at the time of final settlement. All costs applicable to a termination claim are charged as an offsetting expense concurrently with the recognition of income from the claim.
Backlog
The Company's sales backlog at February 25, 2000, and February 26, 1999, for work to be performed and revenue to be recognized under written agreements after such dates was approximately $44,146,000 and $32,141,000, respectively. In addition, the Company's training and maintenance contracts backlog at February 25, 2000 and February 26, 1999, for work to be performed and revenue to be recognized after that date under written agreements was approximately $1,288,000 and $1,311,000, respectively. Of the February 25,2000 backlog, approximately $38,725,000 is under contracts for aircrew training systems and maintenance support including $25,755,000 for the Walt Disney companies. Approximately 64% of the February 25, 2000, backlog is expected to be completed prior to February 23, 2001.
Competition
The Company's business strategy in recent years has been to seek niche markets in which there are not numerous competitors. However, in some areas of its business the Company competes with well-established firms, some of which have substantially greater financial and personnel resources.
Some competitor firms have technical expertise and production capabilities in one or more of the areas involved in the design and production of physiological flight training equipment, environmental systems, and other specially designed products, and compete with the Company for this business. The competition for any particular project generally is determined by the technological requirements of the project, with consideration also being given to a bidder's reliability, product performance, past performance, and price.
The Company faces particularly intense competition from a number of firms in the sale of hospital sterilizers but faces less competition in the sale of the larger custom-designed industrial sterilizers.
The Company believes that it is a significant participant in the markets in which it competes, especially in aircrew training systems in which the Company believes it is a principal provider of this type of equipment and training in its market area.
Compliance with Environmental Laws
The Company has not incurred during fiscal 2000 nor does it anticipate incurring during fiscal 2001 any material capital expenditures to maintain compliance with Federal, state and local statutes, rules and regulations concerning the discharge of materials into the environment, nor does the Company anticipate that compliance with these provisions will have a material adverse effect on its earnings or competitive position.
Employees
On February 25, 2000, the Company had 292 full-time employees, of whom 6 were employed in executive positions, 109 were engineers, engineering designers, or draftspeople, 67 were administrative (sales, accounting, etc.) and clerical personnel, and 110 were engaged principally in production and operations.
Item 2.
Item 2. Description of Property
The Company owns its executive offices and principal production facilities located on a 5-acre site in the County Line Industrial Park, Southampton, Pennsylvania in an approximately 70,000 square foot steel and masonry building. Approximately 55,000 square feet are devoted to manufacturing, and 15,000 square feet to office space. The original building was erected in 1969 and additions were made in 1973, 1976, 1985 and 1991. This property serves as collateral for the Company's revolving credit facility. Additionally, the Company rents office space at various sales and support locations throughout the world and at its Polish subsidiary.
The Company considers its machinery and plant to be in satisfactory operating condition. It plans to construct an addition to its main building in Southampton, PA, in fiscal 2001. Increases in the level of operations beyond that expected in the current fiscal year might require the Company to obtain additional facilities and equipment.
Item 3.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
Certain claims, suits and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business have been filed or are pending against the Company. In the opinion of management, all such matters are reserved for or are adequately covered by insurance or, if not so covered, are without merit or are of such kind, or involve such amounts as would not have a significant effect on the financial position of the Company if disposed of unfavorably.
