ITEM II
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
Management's discussion and analysis is intended to be read in conjunction with the Company's unaudited financial statements and the integral notes thereto for the quarter ending March 31, 2005. The following statements may be forward looking in nature and actual results may differ materially.
A. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
REVENUES: Total revenues from the sale of EST products and services decreased to $583,006 for the first quarter of 2005 as compared to $644,540 in the first quarter of 2004, reflecting a decrease of 10%. Gross revenues increased to $589,330 for the quarter ending March 31, 2005, from $649,957 for the same quarter of 2004. Management believes the decrease in product and service revenues is due to reduced sales of the Companys products in both the domestic and foreign industrial automation markets. Management believes the decrease is a reflection of increased product and price competition in the industrial automation market, a factor that impacted the Companys domestic industrial automation revenues during 2004, as well as economic factors negatively effecting customer spending on industrial automation projects. Management is concerned that 2005 sales revenues in the Industrial Automation marketplace may be negatively impacted by these competitive and economic factors. As a strategy for countering the competitive and economic factors in the Industrial Automation market, the Company hired an additional domestic sales manager late in the first quarter of 2005 to augment sales coverage and enhance relationships with resellers of the Companys products, as well as maintaining existing marketing efforts of tradeshow attendance and salesperson activity.
The Company's revenues have historically fluctuated from quarter to quarter due to timing factors such as product shipments to customers, customer order placement, customer buying trends, and changes in the general economic environment. The procurement process regarding plant and project automation, or project development, which usually surrounds the decision to purchase ESTeem products can be lengthy. This procurement process may involve bid activities unrelated to the ESTeem products, such as additional systems and subcontract work, as well as capital budget considerations on the part of the customer. Because of the complexity of this procurement process, forecasts with regard to the Company's revenues are difficult to predict.
The Company's revenues fall into three major customer categories, Domestic, Export and U.S. Government sales. Domestic commercial sales decreased to $506,996 in the first quarter of 2005 as compared to $560,666 for the first quarter of 2004. The foreign export sales decreased for the first quarter of 2005 to $64,524 as compared to the $83,712 in foreign sales in the same quarter of 2004. The decrease in foreign sales reflects a comparative decrease from the first quarter of 2004, a quarter which included sales for large industrial automation projects in Spain, Mexico and Peru. The Company had U.S. Government sales of $11,486 for the first quarter of 2005 compared with sales of $162 in the first quarter of 2004.
Engineering services billed in the first quarter of 2005 increased slightly to $27,758 as compared with $24,971 for the same quarter of 2004. The increase engineering service revenues is the result in timing differences in the number and size of engineering projects undertaken by the Company when compared with the same quarter of 2004. Management believes that in the future the Company may have decreased engineering service revenues as a result of increased sales of the Companys Ethernet based wireless modems, which have been requiring less preinstall, installation and project commissioning services, when compared with the Companys licensed frequency radio modems. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005 sales to the City of Kennewick, an end user of the Companys Mobile Data Computer Systems (MDCS) products consisted of 11% of the Company's sales and service revenues. No other sales to a single customer comprised 10% or more of the Company's product sales.
A percentage breakdown of EST's major customer categories of Domestic, Export and U.S. Government Sales, for the first quarter of 2005 and 2004 are as follows:

The majority of the Company's domestic and foreign sales for the first quarter of 2005 were used in industrial automation applications. It is Managements opinion that the majority of foreign export applications will continue to be in industrial automation applications for the foreseeable future. Industrial Automation applications have historically been the majority of the Companys domestic sales, which Management believes will continue for the foreseeable future, with additional sales revenues being provided by sales of MDCS for public safety entities. During the first quarter of 2005, MDCS sales levels accounted for 26% of the Companys sales and service revenues. Management believes MDCS sales will remain strong in the near term, however MDCS sales are difficult to predict and cannot be assured due to public safety entity purchases being linked to uncertain government funding.
BACKLOG:
As of March 31, 2005, the Company had a sales order backlog of $114,900. The Companys customers generally place orders on an "as needed basis". Shipment for most of the Companys products is generally made within 5 to 10 working days after receipt of customer orders, with the exception of ongoing, scheduled projects, and custom designed equipment for specific customer applications.
COST OF SALES:
Cost of sales percentages of gross sales for the first quarters of 2005 and 2004 were 44% and 41% of gross sales respectively. The cost of sales increase for the first quarter of 2005 is the result of differences in product mix of the items sold during the quarter having increased cost and/or decreased profit margins, when compared with the product mix sold during the same quarter of 2004.
OPERATING EXPENSES:
Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2005 increased $4,137 from first quarter of 2004 levels. The following is a delineation of operating expenses:
March 31 |
March 31 |
Increase |
|
Finance/Administration | $ 76,004 |
$ 62,417 |
$ 13,587 |
Research/Development | 66,692 |

34,428 |
(5,166) |
Total Operating Expenses | $276,991 |
$272,854 |
$ 4,137 |
Finance and Administration: For the first quarter of 2005 Finance and Administration expenses increased $13,587 to $76,004, when compared with the first quarter of 2004. The increase is the result of increased professional services expenses during the quarter, when compared with the same quarter of 2004.
Research and Development: Research and Development expenses decreased $4,762 to $66,692, during the first quarter of 2005, due to decreased subcontracted engineering expertise as compared with the same period in 2004.
Marketing: During the first quarter of 2005, marketing expenses increased slightly to $105,033, when compared with the same period of 2004. Marketing expenses are comprised primarily of marketing employee salaries and benefits, marketing related travel expenses, advertising and tradeshow expenses.
Customer Service: Customer service expenses decreased $5,166, to $29,262 during the first quarter of 2005 due to an increased amount of department expenses being billed to customers for engineering services, when compared with the same quarter of 2004.
INTEREST AND DIVIDEND INCOME:
The Corporation earned $6,324 in interest and dividend income during the quarter ending March 31, 2005. Sources of this income were money market accounts, certificates of deposit and marketable securities investments.
ENGINEERING SUPPORT:
Engineering support costs increased to $25,173 as of March 31, 2005, as compared to $17,176 for the same period of 2004. The increase in engineering support costs for the first quarter of 2005, is the result of increased engineering services projects undertaken by the Company during the first quarter of 2005, when compared with the same quarter of 2004.
NET INCOME:
The Company had a net income of $24,719 for the first quarter of 2005 compared to net income of $69,112 for the same quarter of 2004. The decrease in net income is the result of decreased sales revenues and increased operating expenses during the first quarter of 2005, when compared with the first quarter of 2004.
B. FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Corporation's current asset to current liabilities ratio at March 31, 2005 was 17.5:1 compared to 13:1 at December 31, 2004. The increase in current ratio is due to decreased current liability items such as federal income taxes and accounts payable, when compared with amounts at December 31, 2004.
For the quarter ending March 31, 2005, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $404,281 as compared to cash and cash equivalent holdings of $488,480 at December 31, 2004. Available for sale marketable securities decreased from December 31, 2004 amounts of 1,344,619, to $1,016,381 as of March 31, 2005 as the result of restructuring of the Companys investments to include certificates of deposit. The Company had certificates of deposit investments in the amount of $359,370 as of March 31, 2005.
