CPS TECHNOLOGIES CORP.
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(1) Nature of Business
CPS Technologies Corp. (the “Company” or
“CPS”) provides advanced material solutions to the electronics, power generation, automotive and other industries. The Company’s
primary advanced material solution is metal-matrix composites (MMC’s) which are a combination of metal and ceramic.
CPS also assembles housings and packages for hybrid
circuits. These housings and packages may include components made of metal-matrix composites or they may include components made of more
traditional materials such as aluminum, copper-tungsten, etc.
Using its proprietary MMC technology, the Company
also produces light-weight armor, particularly for extreme environments and heavy threat levels.
The Company sells into several
end markets including the wireless communications infrastructure market, high-performance microprocessor market, motor controller market,
and other microelectronic and structural markets.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies
As permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission applicable to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, these notes are condensed and do not contain all disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements are unaudited.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements of CPS reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are necessary to
present fairly the financial position and results of operations for such periods.
The Company’s balance sheet
at December 26, 2020 has been derived from the audited financial statements at 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 statements.
For further information, refer
to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
26, 2020 and in CPS’s other SEC reports, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and the Company’s
website at www.alsic.com.
The results of operations for interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
(3) Net Income Per Common and Common Equivalent Share
Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing
net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is calculated
by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares plus additional common shares that would have been outstanding
if potential dilutive common shares had been issued for granted stock options and stock purchase rights. Common stock equivalents are
excluded from the diluted calculations when a net loss is incurred as they would be anti-dilutive.
The following table presents the calculation of both
basic and diluted EPS:

(4) Commitments & Contingencies
Commitments
Leases
The Company has one real estate lease
expiring in February 2026. CPS also has a few other leases for equipment which are minor in nature and are generally short-term in duration.
None of these equipment leases have been capitalized as the Company elected an accounting policy for short-term leases, which allows lessees
to avoid recognizing right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases with terms of 12 months or fewer.
The real estate lease expiring in 2026
(the “Norton facility lease”) is included as a right-of-use lease asset and corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet.
This asset and liability was recognized on March 1, 2021 based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term using the Company’s
incremental borrowing rate at commencement date. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees
or material restrictive covenants.
Operating Leases
The Norton facility lease comprises approximately
38 thousand square feet. The lease is triple net lease wherein the Company is responsible for payment of all real estate taxes, operating
costs and utilities. The Company also has an option to renew the lease starting in March 2026 through February 2032. Annual rental payments
range from $152 thousand to $165 thousand through maturity.
The following table presents information about the amount,
timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from the Company’s capitalized operating leases as of June 26, 2021

Operating Lease Costs and Cash Flows
Operating lease cost and cash paid was $38 thousand
during the second quarter of 2021 and $76 thousand for the six months ended June 26, 2021. These costs are related to its long-term operating
lease. All other short-term leases were immaterial.
Finance Leases
The company does not have any finance leases.
(5) Share-Based Payments
The Company measures the cost of employee services received
in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period
during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, the requisite service period (usually the vesting
period). The Company provides an estimate of forfeitures at initial grant date. Reductions in compensation expense associated with the
forfeited options are estimated at the date of grant, and this estimated forfeiture rate is adjusted periodically based on actual forfeiture
experience. The company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the stock options granted.
During the quarter ended June 26, 2021 a total of 26,000
stock options were granted to employees under the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)
and a total of 22,000 were granted to outside directors during the quarter ended June 26, 2021 issued at a weighted average price of $5.81
per share. There were no stock options granted for the quarter ended June 27, 2020.
During the three and six months ended June 26, 2021
there were 16,100 and 629,900 options exercised and corresponding shares issued at a weighted average price of $1.58 and $1.97, respectively.
During the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 there were no shares exercised or issued.
During the three and six months ended June 26, 2021,
the Company repurchased 2,235 and 122,431 shares, respectively, for employees to facilitate their exercise of stock options. During the
three and six months ended June 27, 2020 there were no shares repurchased.
There were also 869,600 shares outstanding at a weighted
average price of $2.14 with a weighted average remaining term of 6.67 years as of June 26, 2021, and there were 472,200 shares exercisable
at a weighted average price of $2.14 with a weighted average remaining term of 4.95 years as of June 27, 2020. The Plan, as amended, is
authorized to issue 1,500,000 shares of common stock. As of June 26, 2021, there were 1,138,000 shares available for future grants.
As of June 26, 2021, there was $445 thousand of total
unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan; that cost is expected
to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.02 years.
During the three and six months ended June 26, 2021,
the Company recognized $92,113 and $119,535, respectively, as shared-based compensation expense related to previously granted shares under
the Plan.
During the three and six months ended June 27, 2020,
the Company recognized $17,390 and $83,063, respectively, as shared-based compensation expense related to previously granted shares under
the Plan.
(6) 2021 At-the-Market Offering
On April 26, 2021, the Company entered into a sales
agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC (“C-H”) pursuant to which the Company may
issue and sell, from time to time, shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $25.0 million
in at-the-market offerings (“ATM”) sales. On the same day, the Company filed a prospectus supplement under a shelf registration
relating to the Sales Agreement. C-H will act as sales agent and will be paid a 3% commission on each sale under the Sales Agreement.
The Company’s common stock will be sold at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, and, as a result, prices will vary.
From date of inception until June 26, 2021, the Company sold 479,289 shares of common stock under the Sales Agreement, for gross proceeds
of $3,356,342, fees to C-H of $100,690, other fees of $118,140 for net proceeds of $3,137,512. Subsequent to June 26, 2021, and as of
August 6, 2021, the Company has sold 25,267 additional shares for gross proceeds of $153,659.

(9) Line of Credit
In September 2019, the Company entered into a revolving
line of credit (LOC) with Massachusetts Business Development Corporation (BDC) in the amount of $2.5 million. The agreement includes a
demand note allowing the Lender to call the loan at any time. The Company may terminate the agreement without a termination fee after
3 years. In May of 2020 this credit line was increased to $3.0 million. The LOC is secured by the accounts receivable and other assets
of the Company and had an interest rate of LIBOR plus 650 basis points. In May of 2021 the interest rate was reduced to LIBOR plus 550
basis points. On June 26, 2021 the Company had $0 of borrowings under this LOC and its borrowing base at the time would have permitted
an additional $3.0 million to have been borrowed.
The line of credit is subject to certain financial covenants,
all of which have been met.
(10) Note
Payable
In March 2020, the company acquired a Sonoscan ultrasound
microscope for a price of $208 thousand. The full amount was financed through a 5 year note payable with third party equipment finance
company. The note is collateralized by the microscope and is being paid in monthly installments of $4 thousand, consisting of principal
plus interest at a rate of 6.47%.
In July 2020 CPS placed into service a piece of manufacturing
equipment which it financed with the machine’s vendor. The equipment cost of $40 thousand will be paid at the rate of $2 thousand
per month over 2 years, resulting in an implied interest rate of 1.90%.
The aggregate maturities of the notes payable based
on the payment terms of the agreement are as follows:

(11) Income Taxes
A valuation allowance against deferred tax assets is
required to be established or maintained when it is "more likely than not" that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will
not be realized. In December 2018, the Company established a valuation allowance reserve, as it is judged more likely than not that all
or a portion of its deferred tax assets will not be utilized before they expire. This decision was reached after giving greater weight
to the Company’s losses in recent years as compared to its forecasts.
The Coronavirus
Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“Act”) became law on March 27, 2020. The Act contains two provisions that provide a
tax benefit to the Company. The Act suspends the current 80% limitation on the utilization of net operating losses for taxable years beginning
in 2018, 2019 and 2020. The Act also allows net operating losses arising in 2018, 2019 and 2020 to be carried back five years. The Act
also accelerates the ability of the Company to recover Federal alternative minimum tax credits.
The
Company recorded a reduction of the valuation allowance reserve of $8 thousand and $69, respectively during the three and six months
ended June 26, 2021 to account for the utilization of deferred tax assets to reduce the current tax liability
for the three and six months ended June 26, 2021 . As a result of the utilization of deferred tax
assets, the Company did not record a provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 26, 2021, and less than $1 thousand
for the six months so ended .

Overview
Products we provide include baseplates for
motor controllers used in high-speed electric trains, subway cars, wind turbines, and hybrid and electric vehicles. We provide baseplates
and housings used in radar, satellite and avionics applications. We provide lids and heat spreaders used with high performance integrated
circuits for use in internet switches and routers. We provide baseplates and housings used in modules built with Wide Band Gap Semiconductors
like SiC and GaN. CPS also assembles housings and packages for hybrid circuits. These housings and packages may include MMC components;
they may include components made of more traditional materials such as aluminum, copper-tungsten, etc. Using its proprietary MMC technology,
the Company also produces light-weight vehicle armor, particularly for extreme environments and heavy threat levels.
CPS’s products are custom
rather than catalog items. They are made to customers’ designs and are used as components in systems built and sold by our customers.
At any point in time our product mix will consist of some products with on-going production demand, and some products which are in the
prototyping or evaluation stages at our customers. The Company seeks to have a portfolio of products which include products in every stage
of the technology adoption lifecycle at our customers. CPS’ growth is dependent upon the level of demand for those products already
in production, as well as its success in achieving new "design wins" for future products.
As a manufacturer of highly technical
and custom products, the Company incurs fixed costs needed to support the business, but which do not vary significantly with changes in
sales volume. These costs include the fixed costs of applications engineering, tooling design and fabrication, process engineering, etc.
Accordingly, particularly given our current size, changes in sales volume generally result in even greater changes in financial performance
on a percentage basis as fixed costs are spread over a larger or smaller base. Sales volume is therefore a key financial metric used by
management.
The Company believes the underlying
demand for metal matrix composites is growing as the electronics and other industries seek higher performance, higher reliability, and
reduced costs. CPS believes that the Company is well positioned to offer our solutions to current and new customers as these demands grow.
Our products are manufactured by proprietary processes
we have developed including the QuicksetTM Injection Molding Process (‘Quickset Process’) and the QuickCastTM Pressure Infiltration
Process (‘QuickCast Process’).
CPS was incorporated in Massachusetts in 1984 as Ceramics
Process Systems Corporation and reincorporated in Delaware in April 1987 through a merger into a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary organized
for purposes of the reincorporation. In July 1987, CPS completed our initial public offering of 1.5 million shares of our Common Stock.
In March 2007, we changed our name from Ceramics Process Systems Corporation to CPS Technologies Corp.
Results of Operations for the Second Fiscal Quarter of 2021 (Q2 2021)
Compared to the Second Fiscal Quarter of 2020 (Q2 2020); (all $ in 000s)
Total revenue was $5,862 in Q2 2021, a 2% increase compared
with total revenue of $5,758 in Q2 2020. This increase was due primarily to the initial shipments of armor panels and increased sales
of hermetic packages, offset by a decrease in the sale of baseplates to a major customer.
Gross margin in Q2 2021 totaled $1,352 or 23% of sales.
In Q2 2020, gross margin was $1,183 or 21% of sales. This increase in margin was primarily due to moderate price increases
and product mix.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A)
were $1,099 in Q2 2021, up 28% when compared with SG&A expenses of $853 in Q2 2020. This increase in SG&A expense was due
to increased compensation expense as a result of the addition of our new COO and the delay in certain Director’s compensation from
Q1 to Q2.
In Q2, 2021, the Company incurred interest expense of
$14 due to bank borrowings. This compares with interest expense of $32 in Q2 of 2020. The decrease in interest is due to decreased borrowings
as a result of the At-the-Market offering
The Company experienced operating income of $253 compared
with an operating income of $331 in the same quarter last year. This decrease in operating income is due primarily to the increase in
SG&A expense, discussed above. The net income for Q2 2021 totaled $239 versus $299 in Q2 2020.
Results of Operations for the First Six Months of 2021 Compared to the
First Six Months of 2020 (all $ in 000s)
Total revenue was $10,728 in the first half of 2021,
a 13% decrease compared with total revenue of $12,270 in the first six months of 2020. This decrease was due primarily to the impact on
the Covid-19 pandemic on Q1 2021 compared to the lack of impact of the pandemic on Q1 2020.
Gross margin in the first six months of 2021 totaled
$2,296 or 21% of sales. In the first six months of 2020 gross margin totaled $2,734 or 22% of sales. This decrease was due to the decrease
in revenue and the reduced coverage of our fixed costs.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses
were $2,007 during the first six months of 2021, up 13% compared with SG&A expenses of $1,781 in the first six months of 2020. The
hiring of our new Chief Operating Officer and increased costs associated with printing and distributing our proxy statement were the primary
reasons for this increase.
During the first half of 2021, the Company incurred
interest expense of $18 due to bank borrowings. This compares with interest expense of $66 incurred during the first half of 2020. The
decrease in interest is due to decreased borrowings as the result of our move to profitability from 2019 to 2020 and the At-the-Market
offering in Q2 2021.
In the first six months of 2021 the Company had operating
income of $289 compared with $952 in the same period last year. The net income for the first six months of 2021 totaled $270 versus $901
in the first six months of 2020. This decrease was due primarily to the impact on the Covid-19 pandemic on Q1 2021 compared to the lack
of impact of the pandemic on Q1 2020.
Liquidity and Capital Resources (all $ in 000s unless noted)
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at June
26, 2021 totaled $3,016 . This compares to cash and cash equivalents at December 26, 2020 of $195 . The improvement in cash and net cash
was primarily due to equity raised through the At the Market offering (“ATM”) discussed below.
Accounts receivable at June 26, 2021 totaled $4,432
compared with $2,915 at December 26, 2020.
Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) increased from 62 days
at the end of 2020 to 69 days at the end of Q2 2021. The increase in DSO was due to higher sales to two large customers with longer payment
terms. The accounts receivable balances at December 26, 2020, and June 26, 2021 were both net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of
$10.
Inventories totaled $3,989 at June 26, 2021 compared
with inventory totaling $3,709 at December 26, 2020. This increase was due to the buildup of inventory for our armor order. The inventory
turnover in the most recent four quarters ending Q2 2021 was 4.0 times, down from 4.5 times averaged during the four quarters of 2020
(based on a 5 point average).
On April 26, 2021, we entered into a sales agreement
(the “Sales Agreement”) with Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC (“C-H”) pursuant to which the Company may issue and
sell, from time to time, shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $25.0 million in at-the-market
offerings (“ATM”). On the same day, the Company filed a prospectus supplement under a shelf registration relating to the Sales
Agreement. C-H will act as sales agent and will be paid a 3% commission on each sale under the Sales Agreement. The Company’s common
stock will be sold at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, and, as a result, prices will vary. From date of inception until
June 26, 2021, the Company sold approximately 479 thousand shares of common stock under the Sales Agreement, for gross proceeds of approximately
$3.4 million. Subsequent to June 26, 2021, the Company has not sold any additional shares.
The Company financed its increase in working capital
in Q2 2021 from its profit and the ATM offering. The Company expects it will continue to be able to fund its operations for the remainder
of 2021 from existing cash balances.
The Company continues to sell to a limited number of
customers and the loss of any one of these customers could cause the Company to require additional external financing. Failure to generate
sufficient revenues, raise additional capital or reduce certain discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
ability to achieve its business objectives.
Management believes that a combination of existing cash
balances and borrowings, if necessary, will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements for the foreseeable future. However, there is
no assurance that we will be able to generate sufficient revenues or reduce certain discretionary spending in the event that planned operational
goals are not met such that we will be able to meet our obligations as they become due.
Contractual Obligations
In September 2019, the Company entered into revolving
line of credit (LOC) with Massachusetts Business Development Corporation (BDC) in the amount of $2.5 million. This agreement was amended
in May 2020 to increase the line to $3.0 million. The agreement includes a demand note allowing the Lender to call the loan at any time.
The Company may terminate the agreement without a termination fee after 3 years. The LOC is secured by the accounts receivable and other
assets of the Company and had an interest rate of LIBOR plus 650 basis points. In May of 2021 the interest rate was reduced to LIBOR plus
550 basis points. On June 26, 2021 the Company had $0 of borrowings under this LOC and its borrowing base at the time would have permitted
an additional $3.0 million to have been borrowed.
In March 2020, the company acquired a scanning acoustic
microscope for a price of $208 thousand. The full amount was financed through a 5 year note payable with a financing company. The note
is collateralized by the microscope and is being paid in monthly installments of $4 thousand, consisting of principal plus interest at
a rate of 6.47%
In July 2020 CPS placed into service a piece of manufacturing
equipment which it financed with the machine’s vendor. The equipment cost of $40 thousand will be paid at the rate of $2 thousand
per month over 2 years with an interest rate of 1.9%.
The Company has one real estate lease
expiring in February 2026. CPS also has a few other leases for equipment which are minor in nature and are generally short-term in duration.
None of these have been capitalized. (Note 4, Leases)
