Winland Electronics Inc.
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Amounts in Thousands Except Share and Per Share Data)
|
Note 1.
|
Basis of Presentation
|
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by Winland Electronics, Inc. (the “Company” or “Winland”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for the preparation of interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.
The condensed balance sheet at December 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statement presentation.
This financial information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Management is required to make certain estimates and assumptions which affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses reported. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates and assumptions.
The Company evaluates events through the date the financial statements are filed for events requiring adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements.
Reclassifications: Certain amounts presented in the condensed statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 have been reclassified to be consistent with the classifications adopted for the same periods ended June 30, 2012. These reclassifications had no impact on operating loss, net loss or accumulated deficit.
Discontinued Operations: Included in discontinued operations is Winland’s Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS) operation. The sale of the EMS operations to a third party was completed on January 1, 2011 pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement dated November 15, 2010 (the “APA”). The transaction involved the sale of 100% of Winland’s EMS assets and assumptions of certain liabilities. The Company’s shareholders approved the sale on December 29, 2010.
The APA met the requirements of ASC 205-20 “Discontinued Operations” as being held for sale at December 31, 2010. Accordingly, the Company has restated the previously reported financial results to report the net results as a separate line in the condensed statements of operations as “Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax” for all periods presented. In accordance with ASC 205-20-S99-3 “Allocation of Interest to Discontinued Operations”, the Company elected to not allocate interest expense to the discontinued operations where the debt is not directly attributed to or related to the discontinued operations. Notes to the financial statements have been revised to reflect only the results of continuing operations (see Note 7).
The Company has two customers that accounted for 10 percent (10%) or more of net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 as follows:

Loss per Common Share
|
Loss per common share: Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including potentially dilutive shares such as the options and warrants to purchase shares of common stock at various amounts per share (see Note 6). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the diluted loss per share was the same as basic loss per share since the effects of options and warrants would have been anti-dilutive. The diluted share calculation excluded 190,000 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 as inclusion of these shares would have been anti-dilutive.

Allowance for Rework and Warranty Costs
|
Winland provides a limited warranty for its proprietary products for a period of one year, which requires Winland to repair or replace defective product at no cost to the customer or refund the purchase price. The reserve reflecting historical experience and potential warranty issues is determined based on specific experience factors including rate of return by item, average weeks outstanding from sale to return, average cost of repair and relation of repair cost to original sales price. Any specific known warranty issues are considered individually. These are analyzed to determine the probability and the amount of financial exposure, and a specific reserve is established. The allowance for rework and warranty costs was $12 and $10 at June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Stock-Based Awards
|
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 the Company did not grant any options. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company granted 70,000 options which had weighted average grant date fair values of $0.44 determined using an expected dividend yield of 0.0 percent, an expected stock volatility of 80.3%, a risk-free interest rate of 1.8% and expected option lives of 4.7 years. No compensation expense or benefit was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized a net benefit of $14 to compensation expense associated with stock based compensation awards which were cancelled on January 1, 2011 due to the separation of the Company’s former chief executive officer and chief financial officer offset by compensation expense associated with options issued for the six months ended June 30, 2011.
At June 30, 2012, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based payments.

The Company calculates its income tax expense by estimating the annual effective tax rate and applying that rate to the year-to-date ordinary income (loss) at the end of the period. The Company records a tax valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that it will not be able to recover the value of its deferred tax assets.
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company calculated its estimated annualized effective tax rate at 0% and 1%, respectively. The Company had no income tax expense on its $167 pre-tax loss from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The Company recognized an income tax expense of $9 based on its $435 pre-tax loss from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The $9 was related to a settlement reached with the state of Minnesota regarding the Company’s research and development credits.
The Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.

The Company settled an examination with the State of Minnesota for its 2003 through 2006 tax years during the first quarter of 2011. The years 2008 through 2011 remain open for examination by the IRS and other state agencies.
The Company recognizes interest accrued on uncertain tax positions as well as interest received from favorable tax settlements within interest expense. The Company recognizes penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits within general and administrative expenses. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized no interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
The Company does not anticipate any significant changes to the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits in the next twelve months.

Financing Arrangement
|
Effective January 3, 2011, Winland and TCI Business Capital, Inc. (“TCI”), entered into a Factoring, Security and Service Agreement (the “Agreement”). The Agreement allowed TCI to purchase from the Company certain eligible accounts receivable based on TCI’s sole and absolute discretion and was terminated by mutual agreement between the Company and TCI in April 2011 for a fee of $5,000. Under the agreement, TCI paid the Company ninety percent (90%) of the eligible account prior to the receivable actually being paid to the Company and one hundred percent (100%) of the eligible account once payment had been made to the Company.

Assets Held for Sale
|
Assets held for sale consist of land and buildings and improvements related to a 58,869 square foot warehouse-assembly-office facility located on 6.16 acres in Mankato, MN (the “Facility”). The Facility was built in 1994 and was previously used by the Company for manufacturing related to its EMS segment. The Company, with the assistance of a third party, estimated the market value of the Facility based on market information for comparable properties in the Mankato area. The estimated market value of the property, less expected sale costs, is in excess of the current carrying value of the property at June 30, 2012. Though no loss is expected with the final disposal of the property, significant changes in the estimate could have a material impact to the financial statements.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|
OVERVIEW
Winland is an industry leader in the design and manufacture of critical condition monitoring devices. Products including EnviroAlert, WaterBug, TempAlert and Vehicle Alert, are designed to monitor critical conditions for industries including healthcare and medical, grocery and food service, commercial and industrial, agriculture and residential. These Winland branded and trademarked products accounted for 100% of the Company’s revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Proudly made in the USA, Winland products are compatible with any hardwire or wireless alarm system and are available worldwide. Headquartered in Mankato, MN, Winland trades on the NYSE Amex stock exchange under the symbol WEX.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Sales for the second quarter of 2012 were consistent with those recognized in the first quarter yet were overshadowed by the significant reduction in sales to our largest customer in the same period in 2011. As stated in the first quarter, this customer restructured their stocking program in January 2011 which provided additional sales volumes in both the first and second quarters of last year.
Since the sale of its EMS operations on January 1, 2011, the Company has continued to review its current business model and during the second quarter of 2012 it determined more information was needed to determine future business strategies. On July 23, 2012 the Company engaged an outside project team with the goal to investigate, analyze and provide feedback related to the Company’s products, competitors, sales channels and future business strategy. The Company anticipates spending from $80,000 to $120,000 on this project which is to conclude in the fourth quarter of 2012.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three and six months ended June 30, 2012 vs.
Three and six months ended June 30, 2011
The Company reported a net loss of $52,000 or $0.02 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to a net loss of $140,000 or $0.04 per basic and diluted share for the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company reported a net loss of $167,000 or $0.05 per basic and diluted share compared to a net loss of $346,000 or $0.09 per basic and diluted share.
Net Sales
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2012 were $819,000, down $165,000 from the same period in 2011. The decrease was primarily related to sales to our largest distributor being down $72,000 and a non-recurring customer project during 2011 worth $72,000. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were $1,626,000, a decrease of $278,000 from the same period in 2011. The decrease was primarily related to sales to our largest distributor being down $205,000 and a non-recurring customer project during 2011 worth $72,000. In January 2011, our largest distributor restructured its stocking program which led to increased order volume during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. Sales from our largest distributor during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are more indicative of their average historical sales volume.
Operating Loss
The Company reported an operating loss of $121,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to an operating loss of $250,000 for the same period in 2011. Gross margins decreased from 31.0% to 29.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. This decrease in gross margin was related to increased indirect salaries and an increase in warranty expenses. The Company reported an operating loss of $303,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to an operating loss of $411,000 for the same period in 2011. Gross margins were 28.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 which were consistent to the same period in 2011.
General and Administrative expenses were $137,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, a decrease of $158,000 compared to the same time period a year ago. The decrease was due to reduced board fees of $65,000 based on the revised board retainer and committee fees approved on May 24, 2011 and timing of 2012 board retainer fees paid associated with the 2012 annual meeting held in July 2012, reduced salaries expense of $39,000 related to stay bonus agreements, reduced depreciation expense of $22,000 related to assets held for sale and reduced professional fees of $22,000. General and Administrative expenses were $284,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, a decrease of $218,000 compared to the same time period a year ago. The decrease was due to reduced board fees of $86,000 based on the revised board retainer and committee fees approved on May 24, 2011 and timing of 2012 board retainer fees paid associated with the 2012 annual meeting held in July 2012, reduced borrowing line fees of $50,000, reduced depreciation expense of $44,000 related to assets held for sale and reduced professional fees of $25,000. During the third quarter of 2012, the Company expects to incur between $80,000 and $120,000 of non-recurring expenses related to its strategic business project as described above which will be in addition to other normal and recurring general and administrative expenses.
Sales and marketing expenses were $149,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, a decrease of $64,000 compared to the same time period a year ago. The decrease was due to reduced salaries and commission expenses of $38,000, reduced expenditures for travel of $8,000 and reduced trade show expenses of $8,000. Sales and marketing expenses were $353,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, a decrease of $54,000 compared to the same time period a year ago. The decrease was due to reduced salaries and commission expenses of $44,000 and reduced expenditures for travel of $15,000.
The Company funded research and development activities incurring expenses of $74,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 an increase of $27,000 compared to the same time period a year ago. These increased expenses were for continued product development related to the Company’s EnviroAlert EA800-ip. The Company funded research and development activities incurring expenses of $134,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 an increase of $87,000 compared to the same time period a year ago. The increase was due to increased and continued product development expenses of $65,000 related to the Company’s EnviroAlert EA800-ip and increased salaries expenses of $20,000.
Other Income and Expense
Other income and expense consists primarily of rental revenue, interest expense and miscellaneous income and expense. Rental revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 consisted of $66,000 and $131,000, respectively, for the building lease to Nortech. In December 2011, the Company realized it should recognize rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the non-cancellable term of the lease. Management quantitatively and qualitatively evaluated the materiality of the error determining the error to be immaterial for the interim periods of 2011 and recorded a prospective adjustment of $261,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011. Rental revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 would have been $66,000 and $131,000, respectively, if this immaterial error had not occurred.
The Company did not borrow money during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 thus did not incur any interest expense. Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $15,000 which consisted of $7,000 mortgage interest paid to US Bank and $8,000 paid to TCI for interest and minimum fees for terminating the financing agreement in April 2011. The Company received $11,000 of interest income related to its income tax refund during the three months ended June 30, 2011. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $39,000 which consisted of $22,000 paid to TCI for interest and minimum fees for terminating the financing agreement in April 2011, $14,000 mortgage interest paid to US Bank and $3,000 paid to PrinSource for factoring of accounts receivable. The Company received $11,000 of interest income related to its income tax refund during the six months ended June 30, 2011.
Income Tax
As discussed in Note 8 to the Condensed Financial Statements, income tax benefits were calculated using an estimated annual blended federal and state income tax rate of 0% and 1% for the six month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
The Company had no income tax expense on its $167,000 pre-tax loss from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The Company recognized an income tax expense of $9,000 based on its $435,000 pre-tax loss from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The $9,000 was related to a settlement reached with the state of Minnesota regarding the Company’s research and development credits.
Loss from discontinued operations
On January 1, 2011, the Company sold its EMS business to Nortech. Winland recognized a gain from discontinued operations, net of tax, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 of $112,000 and $98,000, respectively. Net sales from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 were $470,000 and $2,588,000 from raw, finished and work-in-process inventories sold to Nortech. No gross profit was recognized on the inventory sold to Nortech for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, as the Company sold the inventory to Nortech at historical cost.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Operating activities used cash of $420,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 the result of the net loss of $167,000, increased finished goods balance of $166,000, payment of accounts payable balances of $68,000 related to inventory purchases and cash paid for accrued expenses of $62,000 primarily for severance payments of $43,000 and retention bonus of $10,000 partially offset by collection of $47,000 of accounts receivable balances in excess of sales. Operating activities used cash of $581,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from the net loss of $346,000, a reduction of accrued expenses of $185,000 primarily related to compensation payments of $142,000 primarily for severance, net increase in finished goods inventories of $176,000 for future customer sales and an increase in accounts receivable balances of $101,000 related to increased finished goods sold offset by federal and state income tax refunds received of $277,000.
Investing activities used cash of $5,000 to acquire capital equipment for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to investing activities providing cash of $3,089,000 primarily from the sale of EMS business unit and the sale of related inventory from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Financing activities used cash of $1,249,000 to pay down the Company’s accounts receivable agreement for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Cash used to pay down long-term borrowings was $55,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. There were no cash flows from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 as all remaining financing agreements were repaid and terminated in 2011 with cash from the EMS sale.
The current ratio was 4.2 to 1 at June 30, 2012 and 3.7 to 1 at December 31, 2011. Working capital equaled $1.4 million on June 30, 2012, compared to $1.5 million on December 31, 2011.
The Company’s future capital requirements, inclusive of expenses for the Company’s strategic business project as further described in this Form 10-Q, will depend on many factors, including the timing and amount of its revenues and its investment decisions, which may affect the Company’s ability to generate additional cash. The Company’s management believes that its cash balance, existing working capital and expected cash in 2012 from leasing, or sale of, the building will be adequate to fund its cash requirements during the next twelve months.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this Form 10-Q and other written and oral statements made from time to time by Winland do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. As such, they are considered “forward-looking statements” that provide current expectations or forecasts of future events. Such statements can be identified by the use of terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “could,” “possible,” “plan,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “forecast” and similar words or expressions. Winland's forward-looking statements generally relate to it increasing market awareness for its products, growth strategies, financial results, sales levels, sales efforts, investments in sales and marketing and the sufficiency of capital. One must carefully consider forward-looking statements and understand that such statements involve a variety of risks and uncertainties, known and unknown, and may be affected by inaccurate assumptions. Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed, and actual results may vary materially from results or circumstances described in such forward-looking statements. As provided for under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Winland wishes to caution investors that its forward-looking statements in some cases have affected and in the future could affect Winland’s actual results of operations and cause such results to differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements made in this document and elsewhere by or on behalf of Winland.
Please refer to forward-looking statements as previously disclosed in Winland’s annual report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

Failure to meet financial requirements for the continued listing of Winland's stock on a national stock exchange would impair the liquidity of its stock and its availability to access the capital markets, if necessary.
