Results of Operations

Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $31,407, a decrease of 5.9% compared to the same period in 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net sales were $99,513, a decrease of 3.6% compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to the following:

Industry 3 Months Ended September 30 9 Months Ended September 30
Medical Increased 1.2% Decreased 9.7%
Industrial Decreased 19.2% Decreased 4.6%
Aerospace and Defense Decreased 3.4% Increased 23.3%

The decrease in medical sales was due to inventory rebalancing, timing of customer product launches, and lower average sales prices. The decrease in industrial sales was due to customer efforts to reduce inventory and delayed program launches. The increase in aerospace and defense sales was due to increasing demand and improved supply chain availability.

Backlog

Our 90-day shipment backlog as of September 30, 2024 was $29,631, down 1.5% from June 30, 2024 and 12.3% from the prior-year quarter. Our total order backlog as of September 30, 2024 was $69,770, a 4.8% decrease from the prior quarter and a 31.8% decrease from the prior-year quarter. The decrease in backlog is due to customers rebalancing their inventories and deferring orders.

Operating Costs and Expenses

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased from 15.9% in Q3 2023 to 12.2% in Q3 2024, and from 15.8% in the first 9 months of 2023 to 14.0% in the first 9 months of 2024. This was due to lower net sales and corresponding lower operating leverage.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased slightly in 2024 compared to 2023 due to lower incentive compensation accruals.

Restructuring charges of $176,000 and $267,000 were recorded in Q3 and the first 9 months of 2024, respectively, related to the closure of the Blue Earth facility.

Operating income decreased from $1,124,000 (3.4% of net sales) in Q3 2023 to a loss of $467,000 (-1.5% of net sales) in Q3 2024. For the first 9 months, operating income decreased from $3,276,000 (3.2% of net sales) in 2023 to $1,032,000 (1.0% of net sales) in 2024, driven by the decrease in net sales and gross margin.

Cash Flow and Liquidity

Cash used in operating activities was $3,043,000 in the first 9 months of 2024, compared to cash provided of $2,181,000 in the same period of 2023. This was primarily due to changes in working capital, including increased inventory and decreased accounts payable.

Cash used in investing activities was $971,000 in the first 9 months of 2024, primarily for capital expenditures.

Cash provided by financing activities was $3,561,000 in the first 9 months of 2024, compared to cash used of $2,388,000 in the same period of 2023, due to increased borrowings on the line of credit.

The company has a $15,000 Senior Secured Revolving Line of Credit with Bank of America, which it entered into on February 29, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, the company had $9,550,000 in borrowings outstanding on the line of credit.
