Note 4. NET INCOME PER SHARE
Basic net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive potential common shares related to stock options and warrants outstanding during the period. Incremental shares related to outstanding stock options and warrants of approximately 641,000 and 733,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively and 1,375,000 and 1,323,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively, were included in the calculations of diluted net income per share for those periods. Incremental shares related to outstanding stock options of 127,600 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This discussion and analysis is designed to be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000.
Forward-looking Statements and Risk Factors Affecting Business and Results of Operations
All statements and trend analyses contained in this item and elsewhere in this report on Form 10-Q relative to the future constitute "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-statements are subject to the business and economic risks faced by us and our actual results of operations may differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, results of operations for the periods discussed below should not be considered indicative of the results to be expected in any future period and fluctuations in operating results might result in fluctuations in the market price of our common stock. Our quarterly and annual operating results may vary significantly depending on many factors, including but not limited to, the ability of subcontractors to meet their delivery commitments; unfavorable changes in industry and competitive conditions; our mix of product shipments; the accuracy of our customers forecasts; the effectiveness of our efforts to control and reduce costs; and other risks detailed in "Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Risk Factors Affecting Business and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Overview
We are a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of high-performance power semiconductors. Power semiconductors manage and regulate power by converting electricity into a form required by electrical and electronic products. Our power semiconductors increase system efficiency, permit the design of more compact end products and improve features and functionality. We are primarily focused on the high power, high frequency segment of the power semiconductor market. High power refers to the ability to handle voltages and currents above one kilowatt, and high frequency refers to the ability to switch on and off at speeds above 100 kilohertz. We sell our products primarily in North America and Europe, with increasing sales in Asia, through a network of independent sales representatives and distributors.
In August 2000, we completed an initial public offering, or IPO, of 4,025,000 shares of our common stock, including the underwriters over-allotment, at an offering price of $15.00 per share. The IPO included 2,830,000 shares sold by APT and 1,195,000 shares sold by shareholders of APT, and resulted in net proceeds to APT of approximately $38.3 million.

Revenues. Our net revenues were $11.5 million in the second quarter of 2001, an increase of 14.3% from net revenues of $10.1 million in the second quarter of 2000, and $24.7 million in the first six months of 2001, an increase of 25.7% from net revenues of $19.6 million in the first six months of 2000. The increase in net revenues in the second quarter of 2001, as compared to the second quarter of 2000, resulted from increased sales of our products in the industrial and medical markets, offset partially by a decline in the semiconductor capital equipment market. During the first half of 2001, we began to see weakening demand from certain customers in the communications and Internet infrastructure markets. Additionally, recent substantial slowing of worldwide semiconductor sales has resulted in a decline in demand for semiconductor capital equipment, which is expected to decrease our sales in this sector. The weakness in both of these industry segments will result in lower revenues and profits in the third quarter of 2001.We have limited visibility as to the duration of this slowing.
During 2000, we entered into a joint venture agreement in China, which included a license and technology transfer agreement for certain of our technologies, in exchange for cash payments totaling $1.5 million over two to three years. The $1.5 million is being recognized as revenue as specific milestones under the contract for the implementation of the technology transferred to the joint venture are met. An immaterial amount of technology license revenue was included in revenues for the second quarters of 2001 and 2000.
Gross Profit. Our gross profit margin was 36.9% in the second quarter of 2001 compared to 37.2% in the second quarter of 2000. The decrease in gross profit margin in the second quarter of 2001, as compared to the second quarter of 2000, resulted from lower gross margin product mix and lower fixed cost absorption in our internal manufacturing facilities due to declining production volumes. Our gross profit is expected to decline in the third quarter of 2001 due to continued low fixed cost absorption in our internal manufacturing facilities as we implement intermittent production shutdowns in order to control inventory levels and continue to experience a less favorable product mix.
Research and Development Expense. Our research and development expenses were $465,000 in the second quarter of 2001, an increase of 94.6% from research and development expenses of $239,000 in the second quarter of 2000. The increase in research and development expenses in the second quarter of 2001, as compared to the second quarter of 2000, primarily resulted from increased use of materials associated with our research and development efforts. We expect that our research and development efforts will continue to increase in 2001. As a percent of net revenues, research and development expense increased to 4.0% in second quarter of 2001 from 2.4% in the second quarter of 2000.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $2.7 million in the second quarter of 2001, an increase of 15.5% from selling, general and administrative expenses of $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2000. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2001, as compared to the second quarter of 2000, principally resulted from $220,000 of increased payroll from additional personnel; $86,000 of increased commissions on higher revenues; and $100,000 of expenses related to the growth of our business and being a public company, including board of director fees and increased fees from accounting, legal and other outside services. These increases were offset by the decrease in goodwill amortization to $0 in the second quarter of 2001, from $99,000 in the second quarter of 2000. (See "Effects of Push Down Accounting" below.)
As a percent of net revenues, selling, general and administrative expense increased to 23.2% in the second quarter of 2001 from 23.0% in the second quarter of 2000.
Stock Compensation Expense. Stock compensation expense includes costs relating to stockbased employee compensation arrangements, and is based on the difference between the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant of options and the exercise price of options to purchase that stock. Stock compensation expense is recognized over the vesting periods of the related options, typically five years. Stock compensation expense of $80,000 was recorded in the second quarter of 2001. Of this amount, $13,500 was recorded in cost of goods sold, $5,000 was recorded in research and development expense and $61,500 was recorded in selling, general and administrative expense. Stock compensation expense of $72,000 was recorded in the second quarter of 2000. Of this amount, $25,000 was recorded in cost of goods sold, $8,000 was recorded in research and development expense and $39,000 was recorded in selling, general and administrative expense. We expect to record stock compensation expense of $41,000 in the third quarter of 2001.
Other income (expense), net. Other income (expense), net, which includes interest expense, interest income and other expense, was $506,000 in the second quarter of 2001 and $(528,000) in the second quarter of 2000. Included in other income (expense) in the second quarter of 2001 was $474,000 of interest income primarily earned on the investment of proceeds from our IPO in August 2000, compared to $0 interest income in the second quarter of 2000. Included in other income (expenses) in the second quarter of 2000 was $520,000 of interest expense principally composed of imputed interest related to the issuance of warrants to Advanced Energy Industries, Inc, interest expense related to the $3.3 million note payable to Hamilton Sundstrand for the purchase of APT by our six senior officers (see "Effects of Push Down Accounting below) and other outstanding debt related to our operations, compared to an immaterial amount of interest expense in the second quarter of 2001.
Income Tax Expense. Our effective tax rate was approximately 29.7% in the second quarter of 2001. We expect our annual effective tax rate will approximate 33% for 2001. The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2001 was lower than the federal statutory rate primarily due to the benefit of a reduction in the valuation allowance due to the realization of foreign net operating loss carry forwards. The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2000 was approximately 62.6%. The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2000 was higher than the federal statutory rate primarily due to permanent differences and was partially offset by the benefit of a reduction in the valuation allowance due to the realization of foreign net operating loss carry forwards. The permanent differences in the second quarter of 2000 relate to interest expense on a $3.3 million note payable to Hamilton Sundstrand that was not deductible for tax purposes by us and interest income that was recognized for tax purposes on $3.1 million notes payable from our six senior officers, but not recorded on our consolidated financial statements. Additionally, goodwill amortization related to the purchase transactions increased the effective tax rate because the amortization was not deductible for tax purposes. See "Effects of Push Down Accounting below.
Effects of Push Down Accounting
In September 1995, our six senior officers purchased a controlling 51% interest in APT for approximately $3.6 million, of which approximately $3.3 million was funded with a note payable to Hamilton Sundstrand, the seller, and the balance was funded from the personal assets of these officers. In January 1998, these same officers purchased the remaining interest in APT for approximately $2.5 million. We loaned our six senior officers $3.0 million, an amount sufficient to purchase the remaining 49% interest and to pay interest on the note owed to Hamilton Sundstrand. In addition, we loaned $100,000 to our six senior officers in 1999 to pay interest on the Hamilton Sundstrand note. In accordance with purchase accounting and push down accounting rules, we were required to establish a new cost basis for our assets and liabilities in January 1998, based on these purchase transactions and to reflect that basis in our consolidated financial statements. The effects of applying push down accounting to our accompanying consolidated financial statements were as follows:
In 1998, we recorded the $3.3 million note payable to Hamilton Sundstrand related to the 1995 purchase as long-term debt on our consolidated balance sheet and we have included corresponding interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations. In August 2000, our six senior officers used a portion of their proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock in our IPO to repay the $3.3 million note payable and accrued interest of $771,000 to Hamilton Sundstrand, which eliminates our interest expense related to this debt going forward.
The $3.1 million in notes payable to APT and accrued interest related to the 1998 purchase was not recorded as a liability on our consolidated balance sheet, but was reflected as a reduction to stockholders' equity. In August 2000, our six senior officers used a portion of their proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock in our IPO to repay the $3.1 million notes payable and accrued interest of $481,000 to APT, which increased our stockholders' equity.
We accounted for the purchase of APT by our six senior officers using the purchase method of accounting, which required that the purchase price be allocated to the net assets acquired based on the relative fair value of assets acquired. The amount of the purchase price in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired was classified as goodwill. We recorded approximately $983,000 of goodwill related to the purchase transactions. Goodwill amortization is included in selling, general and administrative expense in our consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2000, goodwill associated with the purchase transactions was fully amortized.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In the first six months of 2001, we generated approximately $605,000 from operating activities, primarily from net income of $2.9 million adjusted for depreciation and amortization of $594,000, offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $908,000 and an increase in inventories of $1.3 million. Accounts receivable and inventories increased as a result of increased sales in the second quarter of 2001, but also represent slightly higher balances in relation to revenues as compared to the second quarter of 2000.
In the first six months of 2001, we used approximately $7.9 million in investing activities, which consisted of the purchase of $13.4 million of available-for-sale securities and the purchase of $1.5 million of equipment, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of available-for-sale securities of $7.0 million. At June 30, 2001 we had capital expenditure commitments of approximately $466,000.
In the first six months of 2001, we generated approximately $403,000 from financing activities, which primarily consisted of net proceeds of $468,000 from the exercise of stock options.
We have two lines of credit with a bank for up to a total of $6.0 million to provide funds for our continuing operations. No amounts were outstanding under the lines of credit at June 30, 2001. The lines of credit were extended in May 2001 through the end of July 2001 and, bear interest at prime plus 1.0% or 1.25% based on the ratio of debt to equity and are secured by accounts receivable and inventories. Borrowings under our lines of credit are subject to financial covenants, including minimum tangible net worth, maximum debt to tangible net worth, minimum debt service ratio and quick ratio. We were in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2001. We expect to renew the lines of credit as the need arises.
We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents and expected cash flow from operations will be sufficient to support our operating cash requirements for at least the next 12 months. We expect from time to time to evaluate potential acquisitions and equity investments complementary to our market strategy. To the extent we pursue such transactions, we could require additional equity or debt financing to fund such activities or to fund our working capital requirements in the event of an industry downturn or an unexpected adverse change in our business operations. To the extent we require additional capital, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain such financing on terms favorable to us, or at all.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statements Nos. 141 and 142 (FAS 141 and 142), Business Combinations and Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. FAS 141 replaces APB 16 and eliminates pooling-of-interests accounting prospectively. It also provides guidance on purchase accounting related to the recognition of intangible assets and accounting for negative goodwill. FAS 142 changes the accounting for goodwill from an amortization method to an impairment-only approach. Under FAS 142, goodwill will be tested annually and whenever events or circumstances occur indicating that goodwill might be impaired. FAS 141 and 142 are effective for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001.
Upon adoption of FAS 142, amortization of goodwill recorded for business combinations consummated prior to July 1, 2001 will cease, and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001 that do not meet the criteria for recognition under FAS 141 will be reclassified to goodwill. Companies are required to adopt FAS 142 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company will adopt FAS 142 on January 1, 2002. In connection with the adoption of FAS 142, the Company will be required to perform a transitional goodwill impairment assessment. The Company has determined that the impact of these standards will not have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position when implemented.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
We do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio. Due to the short duration and conservative nature of our cash equivalents, and the high quality and conservative nature of our investments, we do not expect any material loss with respect to our investment portfolio.
Currently less than 3% of our sales are transacted in local currencies, primarily French francs. As a result, our international results of operations are subject to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. We do not currently hedge against foreign currency rate fluctuations. Most of our export sales and sales by APT Europe are in U.S. dollars, and most of our foreign currency sales are from operations with significant expenses in the same currency. As a result, gains and losses from such fluctuations have not been material to our consolidated results of operations.
