Note (1) - General: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-QSB related to interim period financial statements. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not include certain information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. However, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the Companys financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 2006. The June 30, 2006 balance sheet information contained herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-KSB as of that date.
Note (2) - Earnings Per Share: Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 are computed as follows:

Note (3) Revolving Credit Line: On October 30, 2006, the Company received an extension until October 30, 2007 of its existing $2,250,000 revolving line of credit facility. In addition, the related Loan Agreement was amended to waive the requirement that the Company maintain windstorm insurance coverage, thereby enabling the Company to self insure against wind damage. On October 30, 2005, the Company received a similar one year extension and the Loan Agreement was amended to eliminate the requirement that 51% of the stock of the Company be owned by the Steiner family or any Steiner trust. The Companys obligations under the facility are guaranteed by the Companys subsidiaries and collateralized by substantially all of the Companys and its subsidiaries assets. No amounts were outstanding at March 31, 2007 and June 30, 2006.
Note (4) - Stock-Based Compensation Plans: The Companys 2000 Stock Option Plan and 1994 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan are the Companys only stock-based compensation plans. The 2000 Stock Option Plan authorizes the grant (until May 2, 2010) of options to purchase up to 500,000 shares of the Companys common stock to employees, directors and consultants, of which no options were outstanding on March 31, 2007. The 1994 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan terminated as to future grants on August 23, 2004, but options to purchase 20,000 shares remain outstanding thereunder.
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (revised), Share-Based Payment, (SFAS 123(R)) utilizing the modified prospective approach. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock option grants under the recognition and measurement principles of APB, Accounting Principles Board, Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations, and, accordingly, recognized no compensation expense for stock option grants in net income.
Under the modified prospective approach, SFAS 123(R) applies to new grants after December 15, 2005 and to grants that were outstanding on December 31, 2005 to the extent not yet vested. Since no new options were granted during the nine months ended March 31, 2007 and all outstanding options were fully vested at December 31, 2005, no compensation cost for share-based payments was recognized under SFAS 123(R) during the nine months ended March 31, 2007. Prior periods are not required to be restated to reflect the impact of adopting the new standard. No compensation cost would have been recognized under the provisions of SFAS 123(R) had SFAS 123(R) been in effect as to the Company during any of the periods reported in this Report.
In April 2006, a director exercised an option to purchase 10,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $.90625 per share.

Note (6) - Segment Information: The Companys reportable segments are strategic businesses that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each business requires different marketing strategies. The Company primarily evaluates the operating performance of its segments based on the categories noted in the table below. The Company has no sales between segments. Financial information for the Companys business segments is as follows:

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (Revised 2004),Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123(R)). SFAS 123(R) replaced FASB 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and superseded APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements. With limited exceptions, the amount of compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. In addition, liability awards are to be re-measured each reporting period. Compensation cost is recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. This guidance became effective as of the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2005 for Small Business filers such as the Company. SFAS 123(R) has not affected the Company to date but may affect the Company if it issues share-based compensation in the future.
In March 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 06-3, How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (that is, Gross versus Net Presentation). EITF 06-3 requires an entity to disclose its policy for presenting taxes assessed on revenue-producing transaction between a seller and customer. Such taxes may include sales, use, and some excise taxes, among others. EITF 06-3 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2006 with early application permitted. For the periods presented in this Report, the Company has presented such taxes net. The implementation of EITF 06-3 did not have an effect on the Companys financial statements.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in financial statements and prescribes a two-step test for the recognition and measurement of a tax position taken on a tax return. FIN 48 provides guidance for determining whether tax benefits may be recognized with respect to uncertain tax positions and, if recognized, the amount that may be recorded. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and the Company is evaluating the effect FIN 48 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB Issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurement (SFAS 157) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and provides for additional fair value disclosures. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not believe SFAS 157 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effect of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (SAB 108). SAB 108 requires the use of two approaches in quantitatively evaluating the materiality of misstatements. If the misstatement as quantified under either approach is material to the current year financial statements, the misstatement must be corrected. If the effect of correcting a prior year misstatement in the current year income statement is material, the prior year financial statements should be corrected. In the year of adoption (fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006), the misstatements may be corrected as an accounting change by adjusting opening retained earnings rather than being included in the current year income statement. The Company does not expect SAB 108 to have an impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities which permits, at specified election dates, all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entitys fiscal year beginning on or
9
after November 15, 2007 with early application permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year beginning on or before November 15, 2007 if an entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS 157. Retrospective application is not permitted unless early adoption is adopted. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on the Companys financial statements.
Revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2007 increased by 21.2% over the same period of fiscal 2006, setting a record for the Company. However, revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 were 9.1% lower than in the comparable fiscal 2006 period which was benefited by a shipment under a large order, production for which had been previously delayed due to the effects of Hurricanes Katrina and Wilma. Quarterly comparisons are not necessarily indicative of future trends due to the many factors that can affect shipments in the short run.
Net earnings for the nine month period of fiscal 2007 increased by 6.9%, mostly due to higher interest income on outstanding bank balances. Net earnings for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 was essentially flat when compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2006 as improved margins during the third quarter of fiscal 2007 offset the lower revenues.
Operating activities during the first nine months of fiscal 2007 provided a positive cash flow of $689,737 from which the Board of Directors declared a $.04 per share semi-annual dividend (an aggregate of $281,372), payable on May 1, 2007 to shareholders of record on April 13, 2007.
Cash increased by $324,541 during the first nine months of fiscal 2007 compared to an increase of $603,987 during the same period of fiscal 2006. The following summarizes the Companys Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:
Nine months ended March 31, | ||||||
2007 (Unaudited) |
2006 (Unaudited) |
|||||
Net cash (used) provided by: | ||||||
Operating activities | $ 689,737 | $ 869,337 | ||||
Investing activities | (83,525 | ) | 15,628 | |||
Financing activities | (281,671 | ) | (280,978 | ) |
For the nine months ended March 31, 2007, operating activities provided cash of $689,737 compared to $869,337 during the first nine months fiscal 2006. The lower comparative production of cash from operating activities was principally due to a lower increase in customer deposits in the fiscal period ($36,386) than in the fiscal 2006 period ($276,298) which, in the 2006 period, related to the receipt of certain large orders.
Cash generated from operating activities during the first nine months of fiscal 2007 was provided by the Companys net earnings of $653,086 and non-cash expenses for depreciation and amortization of $89,706 and bad debts of $10,538. This was partially offset, in addition to the lower increase in customer deposits, by a net $63,593 use of cash as a result of changes in other operating assets and liabilities. An increase in inventories ($155,821) and decreases in accrued employee expenses ($200,595), unearned income ($62,081) and income taxes payable ($64,592) were other principal uses of
10
cash. These uses of cash were offset by cash generated by reductions in accounts and trade notes receivable ($229,990), other current assets ($139,167) and deferred taxes ($14,458).
For the first nine months of fiscal 2006, the Company generated cash through net earnings of $610,813 and non-cash expenses for depreciation and amortization of $101,788 and bad debts of $15,731. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided an additional $141,005, in addition to the $276,298 increase in customer deposits, mostly due to a decrease in accounts and trade notes receivables ($158,186) and increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses ($168,566) and income taxes payable ($55,940). They were partially offset by uses of cash related to an increase in inventories ($339,824) and decreases in accrued employee expenses ($117,986) and unearned income ($62,081).
Investing activities for the first nine months of fiscal 2007 used cash of $83,525 for capital expenditures of machinery and equipment and leasehold improvements. During the same period of fiscal 2006 investing activities provided cash of $15,628, mainly as a result of payments received on a note from the sale of the Companys telecommunications segment ($67,857), which note was fully paid in November 2005. Capital expenditures of $50,921 and patent and trademark expenses of $1,308 partially offset the proceeds received from the note receivable.
Financing activities used cash of $281,378 and $280,978 for the nine months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, to pay cash dividends. A table of declared dividends is set forth in Note 5 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, in February 2007, the Company purchased 143 shares of its common stock from an unaffiliated stockholder using $293.
On October 30, 2006, the Company received an extension until October 30, 2007 of its existing $2,250,000 revolving line of credit facility. In addition, the related Loan Agreement was amended to waive the requirement that the Company maintain windstorm insurance coverage, thereby enabling the Company to self insure against wind damage. On October 30, 2005, the Company received a similar one year extension and the Loan Agreement was amended to eliminate the requirement that 51% of the stock of the Company be owned by the Steiner family or any Steiner family trust. The Companys obligations under the facility continue to be guaranteed by the Companys subsidiaries and collateralized by substantially all of the Companys and its subsidiaries assets. No amounts were outstanding at March 31, 2007 and June 30, 2006.
The Company believes that its present cash position and cash it expects to generate from operations, as well as, if needed, cash borrowings available under its $2,250,000 line of credit, will be sufficient to meet its presently anticipated operational needs.
The Company has no off-balance sheet financing arrangements within the meaning of item 303(c) of Regulation S-B.

Revenues for the nine month period ended March 31, 2007 increased by $3,047,205 (21.2%) over the same period of fiscal 2006. However, for the third quarter of fiscal 2007, revenues decreased by $515,849 (9.1%) from the same period of fiscal 2006.
For the first nine months of fiscal 2007, sales increased by $3,267,633 (23.9%) over the same period of fiscal 2006. Increases were across all product categories, as commercial laundry equipment increased by 36.1%, dry cleaning equipment by 16.0%, boilers by 24.3% and spare parts by 3.9%. The increase in sales for the nine month period was attributable to better pricing which attracted larger contracts. For the three month period ended March 31, 2007, sales decreased by $524,000 (9.5%) from the same three month period in fiscal 2006. Although, in the 2007 three month period, increases were achieved in sales of dry cleaning equipment (8.4%) and spare parts (3.0%), laundry equipment sales decreased by 19.3% and boilers (2.6%) on a comparative basis as sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 were benefited by a shipment under a large order, production for which had been delayed due to the effect of Hurricanes Katrina and Wilma.
Development fees, franchise and license fees, commissions and other income decreased by $220,428 (30.9%) for the nine month period of 2007, but increased by $8,151 (4.4%) in the third quarter of fiscal 2007, in each case, when compared to the same period of fiscal 2006. The comparative decrease for the nine month period was due principally to the absence of commissions paid to the Company in fiscal 2006 by manufacturers which shipped equipment during the fiscal 2006 period directly to the Companys customers. The increase during the three month period of fiscal 2007 was mainly due to higher brokerage and development fees which offset the effect of the lower level of commissions.

Costs of goods sold, expressed as a percentage of sales, increased to 77.1% from 75.3% for the first nine months of fiscal 2007 over the same period of fiscal 2006. However, for the third quarter of fiscal 2007, cost of goods sold decreased to 75.6% from 77.7% from the third quarter of fiscal 2006. The increase for the nine month period was due to larger contract sales which carry a smaller margin but increases overall profitability. During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company experienced a better mix of sales, which accounted for the increase in its gross profit margin.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $263,105 (8.4%) and $16,543 (1.6%) for the nine and three month periods, respectively, of fiscal 2007 from the same periods in fiscal 2006, primarily as a result of increased payroll expense and sales commission expense associated with increased sales in the nine month period of fiscal 2007 and increased payroll expense in the three month period of fiscal 2007. As a percentage of revenues these costs decreased to 19.5% for the nine month period of fiscal 2007 from 21.8% for the comparable fiscal 2006 period due to the higher volume of sales, but increased to 20.7% for the fiscal 2007 three month period from 18.6% from the comparable fiscal 2006 period due to the increase in expenses coupled with the lower sales level.
Research and development expenses are a small part of the Companys total operating expenses and relate to on-going research for the Companys dry cleaning machines.
Interest income increased by $66,040 (137.4%) and $6,526 (24.2%) for the nine and three month periods of fiscal 2007, respectively, over the same periods of fiscal 2006 as a result of higher outstanding bank balances and increased prevailing interest rates.
The effective income tax rate was approximately 38% for all periods of fiscal 2007 and 2006.
Inflation has not had a significant effect on the Companys operations during any of the reported periods.
The Company leases 27,000 square feet of warehouse and office space from Sheila Steiner, the wife of William K. Steiner, a principal shareholder, Chairman of the Board of Directors and a director of the Company. The lease provides for a three-year term that commenced on November 1, 2005 at an annual rental of $94,500, with annual increases commencing November 1, 2006 of 3% over the rent in the prior year. The Company bears real estate taxes, utilities, maintenance, non-structural repairs and insurance. The lease contains two three-year renewal options in favor of the Company. The Company believes that the terms of the lease are comparable to terms that would be obtained from an unaffiliated third party for similar property in a similar locale.
The accounting policies that the Company has identified as critical to its business operations and to an understanding of the Companys results of operations remain unchanged from those described in detail in the Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation section of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. The Company makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Therefore, there can be no assurance that the actual results will not differ from those estimates.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (Revised 2004),Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123(R)). SFAS 123(R) replaced FASB 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and superseded APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements. With limited exceptions, the amount of compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. In addition, liability awards are to be re-measured each reporting period. Compensation cost is recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. This guidance became effective as of the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2005 for Small Business filers such as the Company. SFAS 123(R) has not affected the Company to date but may affect the Company if it issues share-based compensation in the future.
In March 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 06-3, How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (that is, Gross versus Net Presentation). EITF 06-3 requires an entity to disclose its policy for presenting taxes assessed on revenue-producing transaction between a seller and customer. Such taxes may include sales, use, and some excise taxes, among others. EITF 06-3 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2006 with early application permitted. For the periods presented in this Report, the Company has presented such taxes net. The implementation of EITF 06-3 did not have an effect on the Companys financial statements.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in financial statements and prescribes a two-step test for the recognition and measurement of a tax position taken on a tax return. FIN 48 provides guidance for determining whether tax benefits may be recognized with respect to uncertain tax positions and, if recognized, the amount that may be recorded. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and the Company is evaluating the effect FIN 48 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB Issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurement (SFAS 157) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and provides for additional fair value disclosures. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not believe SFAS 157 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effect of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (SAB 108). SAB 108 requires the use of two approaches in quantitatively evaluating the materiality of misstatements. If the misstatement as quantified under either approach is material to the current year financial statements, the misstatement must be corrected. If the effect of correcting a prior year misstatement in the current year income statement is material, the prior year financial statements should be corrected. In the year of adoption (fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006), the misstatements may be corrected as an accounting change by adjusting opening retained earnings rather than being included in the current year income statement. The Company does not expect SAB 108 to have an impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities which permits, at specified election dates, all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entitys fiscal year beginning on or
14
after November 15, 2007 with early application permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year beginning on or before November 15, 2007 if an entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS 157. Retrospective application is not permitted unless early adoption is adopted. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on the Companys financial statements.
Certain statements in this Report are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in this Report, words such as may, should, seek, believe, expect, anticipate, estimate, project, intend, strategy and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements regarding events, conditions and financial trends that may affect the Companys future plans, operations, business strategies, operating results and financial position. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results, trends, performance or achievements of the Company, or industry trends and results, to differ materially from the future results, trends, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others: general economic and business conditions in the United States and other countries in which the Companys customers are located; industry conditions and trends, including supply and demand; changes in business strategies or development plans; the availability, terms and deployment of debt and equity capital; technology changes; competition and other factors which may affect prices which the Company may charge for its products and its profit margins; the availability and cost of the equipment purchased by the Company; relative values of the United States currency to currencies in the countries in which the Companys customers, suppliers and competitors are located; changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulation, principally environmental regulations; and the Companys ability to successfully introduce, market and sell at acceptable profit margins its new Green Jet® dry-wetcleaning machine and Multi-Jet dry cleaning machine. These and certain other factors are discussed in this Report and from time to time in other Company reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not assume an obligation to update the factors discussed in this Report or such other reports.
As of the end of the period covered by this Report, management of the Company, with the participation of the Companys President and principal executive officer and the Companys principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, these officers concluded that, as of the date of their evaluation, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Companys periodic filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including those officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Companys periodic reports.
During the period covered by this Report, there were no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
