(1) General
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial reporting information and the instructions to Form 10-Q
and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the six months ended April 30, 1996, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal
year ending October 31, 1996. The unaudited condensed financial statements
and condensed notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and do not
contain certain information included in the Company's annual financial
statements and notes. For further information, refer to the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995.
(2) Recapitalization and Initial Public Offering
The Company's Board of Directors authorized the filing of a registration
statement for a public offering of the Company's common stock. In
connection with the public offering, the Board and the previously sole
stockholder approved an increase in the number of authorized shares of
common stock from 50,000 shares to 50,000,000 shares, a recapitalization
involving an exchange of all outstanding $1 par value common stock (596
shares) on a 60,403-for-1 basis for no par value common stock (36,000,000
shares) and the authorization of 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, no
par value, issuable in multiple series.
On April 1, 1996, the Company completed a public offering of 2,676,856
shares of the Company's common stock from which it received net proceeds
of approximately $5.6 million.
At October 31, 1995, included in noncurrent other assets are deferred
costs related to the public offering in the amount of $201,237. These
deferred costs were charged against the gross proceeds of the public
offering.
Common Stock
In connection with the recapitalization, additional paid-in capital as of
March 31, 1996 has been reclassified to no par value common stock.

Since November 1, 1995 and in connection with the termination of the
Company's status as an S Corporation, the Company has made distributions

undistributed taxable S Corporation earnings. The Company made
distributions totaling $6,150,000 to the previously sole stockholder
during the six months ended April 30, 1996.

(5) Income Taxes
Through March 31, 1996, the Company was not subject to federal and state
income taxes since it had elected to be taxed as an S Corporation. In
connection with the closing of the Company's initial public offering, the
Company terminated its status as an S Corporation effective March 31, 1996
and became subject to federal and state income taxes. Accordingly, the
statements of income include income taxes from April 1, 1996 and for
informational purposes, the statements of income for the three months and
six months ended April 30, 1996 include a pro forma adjustment for income
taxes which would have been recorded if the Company had been subject to
income taxes for the entire period presented.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the six months ended April 30, 1996 consists of:
Current Deferred Total
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
U.S. Federal $ 268,913 (114,047) 154,866
State 50,484 (21,410) 29,074
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Totals $ 319,397 (135,457) 183,940
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deferred Income Taxes
The Company recorded a $114,045 net benefit for deferred income taxes upon
termination of the Company's S Corporation status. The adjustment reflects
the net deferred income tax asset balance at March 31, 1996 in accordance
with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires an asset and liability
approach for the accounting and financial reporting of income taxes.

(5) (Continued)
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant
portions of the Company's net deferred tax asset as of April 30, 1996 are
presented below:
Deferred tax assets:
Accounts receivable, due to allowance for doubtful accounts $ 94,900
Inventories, due to additional costs inventoried for tax
purposes pursuant to the Tax Reform Act of 1986 60,175
Self-insured health care costs, due to accrual for financial
reporting purposes 40,816
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total gross deferred tax assets 195,891
Less valuation allowance -
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net deferred tax assets 195,891
Deferred tax liabilities:
Plant and equipment, due to differences in depreciation and
capital gain recognition (51,106)
Prepaid expenses, due to deduction for tax purposes (9,328)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total gross deferred tax liabilities (60,434)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net deferred tax asset, including current net tax asset of $186,563
and noncurrent net tax liability of $51,106 $135,457
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Based on the Company's historical and current pretax earnings, management
believes that it is more likely than not that the recorded deferred tax
assets will be realized.
(6) Pro Forma Net Income Per Share
Pro forma net income per share was computed by dividing pro forma net
income by the pro forma weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period (as adjusted for the recapitalization) and
the number of shares (1,800,000) that the Company would have needed to
issue at the initial public offering price per share ($2.50) to pay a $1
million cash distribution to the sole stockholder in December 1995 and a
$3.5 million cash distribution to the previously sole stockholder out of
the proceeds of the initial public offering.

(7) Stock Incentive Plan
The Company and its previously sole stockholder adopted on March 1, 1996 a
stock incentive plan which is called the Optical Cable Corporation 1996
Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan is intended to provide a means
for selected key management employees to increase their personal financial
interest in the Company, thereby stimulating the efforts of these
employees and strengthening their desire to remain with the Company
through the use of stock incentives. The Company has reserved 4,000,000
shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to incentive awards under the
Plan. Incentive awards may be in the form of either incentive stock
options, nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted
stock or incentive stock.
The aggregate number of shares under option pursuant to the Plan is as
follows:
Number Option Price
of Shares Per Share
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Options outstanding at October 31, 1995 - -
Granted 460,000 $ 2.50
Forfeited (4,000) $ 2.50
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
Options outstanding at April 30, 1996 456,000 $ 2.50
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
(8) Stock Dividends
On May 14, 1996, the Board of Directors declared a 2-for-1 stock split
effected in the form of a one hundred percent (100%) stock dividend paid
on May 31, 1996 to stockholders of record at the close of business on May
15, 1996. On June 5, 1996, the Board of Directors declared a 2-for-1 stock
split effected in the form of a one hundred percent (100%) stock dividend
to be paid on June 21, 1996 to stockholders of record at the close of
business on June 6, 1996. All share and per share data have been adjusted
to reflect these stock dividends.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended April 30, 1996 and 1995
Net Income
Net income increased 1.9 percent to $2.1 million in second quarter 1996 from
$2.0 million in second quarter 1995. This increase was primarily due to
increased sales volume and a reduction in interest expense. This was offset by
the recording of income tax expense of $184,000 for second quarter 1996 as a
result of the Company's termination of its S Corporation status effective March
31, 1996.
Net Sales
Net sales consists of gross sales of products, less discounts, refunds and
returns. Net sales increased 7.2 percent to $10.2 million in second quarter 1996
from $9.5 million for the same period in 1995. This increase was attributable to
the Company's continued effort to reach a broader customer base throughout the
United States and internationally with increased advertising, trade show
attendance, and direct sales presence in more states. This effort resulted in
greater sales in all market segments and product types. Sales from orders less
than $50,000 increased 14.0 percent to $8.1 million in second quarter 1996 from
$7.1 million for the same period in 1995, and sales from orders $50,000 or more
decreased 12.8 percent to $2.1 million from $2.4 million.
Gross Profit Margin
Cost of goods sold consists of the cost of materials, compensation costs and
overhead related to the Company's manufacturing operations, and warranty
expenses. The Company's gross profit margin (gross profit as a percentage of net
sales) decreased to 40.2 percent in second quarter 1996 from 41.8 percent in
second quarter 1995. This decrease was due primarily to a change in the
Company's product mix sold during the quarter.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of the compensation costs
(including sales commissions) for sales and marketing personnel, travel
expenses, customer support expenses, trade show expenses, advertising, the
compensation cost for administration, finance and general management personnel,
as well as legal and accounting fees. Selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of net sales were 19.4 percent in second quarter 1996
compared to 18.9 percent in second quarter 1995. This higher percentage was
primarily due to an increase in bad debt expense of $47,000.
Interest Expense
The reduction in interest expense in second quarter 1996 is due to the Company
generating adequate amounts of cash from operations to meet its cash needs
thereby requiring limited use of its revolving line of credit in second quarter
1996.
(Continued)
11
Six Months Ended April 30, 1996 and 1995
Net Income
Net income increased 39.8 percent to $4.8 million for the six months ended April
30, 1996 from $3.5 million for the six months ended April 30, 1995. This
increase was primarily due to increased sales volume, increased gross profit
margin and a reduction in interest expense. This was offset by the recording of
income tax expense of $184,000 for second quarter 1996 as a result of the
Company's termination of its S Corporation status effective March 31, 1996.
Net Sales
Net sales consists of gross sales of products, less discounts, refunds and
returns. Net sales increased 16.4 percent to $20.5 million for the six months
ended April 30, 1996 from $17.6 million for the same period in 1995. This
increase was attributable to the Company's continued effort to reach a broader
customer base throughout the United States and internationally with increased
advertising, trade show attendance, and direct sales presence in more states.
This effort resulted in greater sales in all market segments and product types.
Additionally, net sales were favorably impacted by increases in both large and
small orders. Sales from orders less than $50,000 increased 17.8 percent to
$16.8 million for the six months ended April 30, 1996 from $14.3 million for the
same period in 1995, and sales from orders $50,000 or more increased 10.6
percent to $3.7 million from $3.3 million.
Gross Profit Margin
Cost of goods sold consists of the cost of materials, compensation costs and
overhead related to the Company's manufacturing operations, and warranty
expenses. The Company's gross profit margin (gross profit as a percentage of net
sales) increased slightly to 42.9 percent for the six months ended April 30,
1996 from 42.3 percent for the six months ended April 30, 1995. This increase
was due primarily to a change in the Company's product mix sold during the
period.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of the compensation costs
(including sales commissions) for sales and marketing personnel, travel
expenses, customer support expenses, trade show expenses, advertising, the
compensation cost for administration, finance and general management personnel,
as well as legal and accounting fees. Selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of net sales were 19.1 percent for the six months ended
April 30, 1996 compared to 21.1 percent for the six months ended April 30, 1995.
This lower percentage was primarily the result of the fact that net sales for
the six months ended April 30, 1996 increased 16.4 percent for the six months
ended April 30, 1995.
Interest Expense
The reduction in interest expense for the six months ended April 30, 1996 is due
to the Company generating adequate amounts of cash from operations to meet its
cash needs thereby not requiring the use of its revolving line of credit for the
six months ended April 30, 1996.
(Continued)
12
Financial Condition
Total assets at April 30, 1996 were $24.8 million, an increase of $6.0 million,
or 32.0 percent over October 31, 1995. This increase was primarily due to an
increase of $1.4 million in trade accounts receivable resulting from the
increased sales volume during the six months ended April 30, 1996, an increase
of $.7 million in inventory and an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $3.6
million resulting from the initial public offering of the Company's common
stock.
Total stockholders' equity at April 30, 1996 increased $4.3 million from October
31, 1995 as a result of the initial public offering and net income for the six
months ended April 30, 1996, less cash distributions totaling $6.2 million to
the Company's previously sole stockholder.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has financed its cash requirements through cash flows from
operations along with short-term borrowings. On March 1, 1996, the Company and
its bank executed a loan commitment letter renewing its $5 million revolving
line of credit arrangement for another year under substantially similar terms;
however, the line of credit as renewed does not contain the restrictive
financial covenants contained in the previous agreement.
The Company's primary capital needs have been to (i) fund working capital
requirements, (ii) repay indebtedness, (iii) purchase property and equipment for
expansion and (iv) fund distributions to its previously sole stockholder
primarily to satisfy his tax liabilities resulting from S Corporation status.
The Company's primary sources of financing have been cash from operations, bank
borrowings and the initial public offering of the Company's common stock. The
Company believes that its cash flow from operations, available lines of credit
and the portion of the net proceeds from the public offering that the Company
intends to use for general corporate purposes will be adequate to fund its
operations for at least the next twelve months. The Company is not aware of any
trends, commitments or events that will result in or that are reasonably likely
to result in a material increase or decrease in liquidity thereafter. As of the
date hereof, the Company has no additional material sources of financing.
Cash flows from operations were approximately $3.7 million and $5.9 million for
the six months ended April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. For the six months
ended April 30, 1996, cash flows from operations were primarily provided by
operating income, offset by an increase in trade accounts receivable of $1.4
million and an increase in inventory of $0.7 million. Cash flows from operations
for the six months ended April 30, 1995 were primarily provided by operating
income and a decrease in inventory of $2.9 million. In 1995, the Company reduced
its inventory of optical fiber because it had additional access to ready
supplies.
Net cash used in investing activities was primarily for expenditures related to
facilities and equipment and was $623,000 and $161,000 for the six months ended
April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. In fiscal 1996 and 1997, the Company
expects to make additional investments in facilities expansion; however, as of
April 30, 1996, there are no material commitments for capital expenditures.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $0.5 million and $(5.6)
million for the six months ended April 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The net
cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended April 30, 1996
consisted of an increase in debt outstanding under the line of credit of $1.0
million and net proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $5.6 million,
offset by $6.2 million in cash distributions to the Company's previously sole
stockholder. The net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended
April 30, 1995 consisted primarily of a decrease in debt outstanding under the
line of credit of $4.3 million and cash distributions to the Company's
previously sole stockholder of $1.1 million.
