ITEM 1. BUSINESS. ---------
General - -------
Edac Technologies Corporation ("Edac") was formed in 1985 for the purpose of acquiring Gros-Ite Industries, Incorporated (which had three operating divisions: Time Engineering, Gros-Ite and Spectrum). In 1988 and 1989 Edac sold the assets of its other operations and now operates only the Gros-Ite division ("Gros-Ite").
Products - --------
Edac currently offers design and manufacturing services for the aerospace industry in areas such as special tooling, equipment and gauges, and components used in the manufacture, assembly and inspection of jet engines. Edac also offers design and manufacturing services for the medical instruments industry in such areas as components used in the manufacture of medical instruments and special tooling. Edac also designs and manufactures specialized machines for a variety of other applications.
Edac maintains manufacturing facilities with computerized numerically controlled machining centers, and grinding, welding, and sheet metal fabrication, painting and assembly capabilities. Items manufactured by Edac include precision rings, and other components for jet engines, components for medical instruments, as well as industrial spindles, environmental test chambers and specialized machinery designed by Edac or others and other assemblies requiring close tolerances.
Patents and Trademarks - ----------------------
Edac currently holds no patents or registered trademarks, tradenames or similiar intellectual property. The Company believes that the nature of its business presently does not require the development of patentable products or registered tradenames or trademarks to maintain market growth.
Marketing and Competition - -------------------------
Edac has numerous competitors both in design and manufacturing. Many of the independent design firms with which it competes are smaller than Edac and do not provide the variety of services that Edac provides. Edac also competes with its customers' in-house design and technical services capabilities. Edac believes that it is able to compete effectively with independent design firms and in-house design staffs because of its experience and the timeliness and competitive pricing of its services.
Many firms also compete with Edac's manufacturing operations. However, Edac believes that it will be able to compete effectively with these firms on price, ability to meet customer deadlines and the stringent quality control standards it employs. Edac also believes that its integration of design and manufacturing capabilities offers a competitive advantage.
Edac's manufactured products are sold primarily through individual purchase orders on a quotation or bid basis. Its sales personnel and management maintain contacts with purchasing sources to keep informed as to manufacturing projects available for quotation. Edac occasionally enters into annual manufacturing contracts on specific components.
For its fiscal year ended December 31, 1995, approximately 69% and 10% of Edac's net sales were derived from sales to United Technologies Corporation and Zapata Technologies Inc., respectively.
Approximately 70% of Edac's design business is done on a time and material basis based on hourly rates established annually. Most of Edac's manufacturing is done on a firm quotation basis. Less than 10% of Edac's net sales are attributed to government contracts subject to termination or renegotiation at the option of the U.S. Government. United Technologies Corporation annually negotiates hourly billing rates for design work and is free to audit costs actually charged.
Backlog - -------
Edac's backlog as of December 31, 1995, was approximately $24,677,000 compared to $24,487,000 as of December 31, 1994. Backlog consists of accepted purchase orders that are cancellable by the customer without penalty, except for payment of costs incurred, and may involve delivery times that extend over periods as long as two or three years. Edac presently expects to complete approximately $15,900,000 of its December 31, 1995 backlog within the next 12 months.
Employees - ---------
As of March 29, 1996 Edac had approximately 171 employees.
