FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The discussions of Trio-Tech International’s (the “Company”) business and activities set forth in this Form 10-Q and in other past and future reports and announcements by the Company may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and assumptions regarding future activities and results of operations of the Company. In light of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company: market acceptance of Company products and services; changing business conditions or technologies and volatility in the semiconductor industry, which could affect demand for the Company’s products and services; the impact of competition; problems with technology; product development schedules; delivery schedules; changes in military or commercial testing specifications which could affect the market for the Company’s products and services; difficulties in profitably integrating acquired businesses, if any, into the Company; risks associated with conducting business internationally and especially in Asia, including currency fluctuations and devaluation, currency restrictions, local laws and restrictions and possible social, political and economic instability; changes in U.S. and global financial and equity markets, including market disruptions and significant interest rate fluctuations; and other economic, financial and regulatory factors beyond the Company’s control. Other than statements of historical fact, all statements made in this Quarterly Report are forward-looking, including, but not limited to, statements regarding industry prospects, future results of operations or financial position, and statements of our intent, belief and current expectations about our strategic direction, prospective and future financial results and condition. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “potential,” “believes,” “can impact,” “continue,” or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that are inherently difficult to predict, which could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from our expectations, forecasts and assumptions.

Unless otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events, changed circumstances, or the occurrence of unanticipated events. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The amendments in ASU 2018-19 ASC Topic 326: Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments – Credit Losses clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of the credit losses standard, but rather, should be accounted for in accordance with the lease’s standard.

The amendments in ASU 2016-13 ASC Topic 326: Financial Instruments — Credit losses (“ASC Topic 326”) are issued for the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. For public companies that are not SEC filers, ASC Topic 326 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. While early application will be permitted for all organizations for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, the Company has not yet determined if it will early adopt. The effectiveness of this update is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued an ASU 2016-12 ASC Topic 842: Leases , which amends a number of aspects of the existing accounting standards for leases which require lessees to recognize operating leased assets and corresponding liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. In July 2018, ASU 2018-10: Codification Improvements to Leases addressed stakeholders’ questions about how to apply certain aspects of the new guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842: Leases . The clarifications address the rate implicit in the lease, impairment of the net investment in the lease, lessee reassessment of lease classification, lessor reassessment of lease term and purchase options, variable payments that depend on an index or rate and certain transition adjustments. Besides, the amendments in ASU 2018-11 ASC Topic 842: Leases: Targeted Improvements related to transition relief on comparative reporting at adoption affect all entities with lease contracts that choose the additional transition method and separating components of a contract affect only lessors whose lease contracts qualify for the practical expedient. In July 2018, the amendments in ASU 2018-20 ASC Topic 842: Leases: Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors addressed the following issues facing lessors when applying this lease standard: (1) sales taxes and other similar taxes collected from lessees, (2) certain lessor costs and (3) recognition of variable payments for contracts with lease and non-lease components. On 5 March 2019, ASU 2019-01 issued to exempt both lessees and lessors from having to provide certain interim disclosures in the fiscal year in which a company adopts the new leases standard. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. While early application is permitted and allows for either a modified retrospective adoption or a retrospective adoption by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption, the Company has not elected to early adopt. The Company will adopt these standards starting in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 on a modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the period through a cumulative-effect adjustment. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and expects that there will be an increase in assets and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at adoption due to the recognition of right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities. Upon adoption, the Company expects that its financial statement disclosure will be expanded to present additional details of its leasing arrangements.

Other new pronouncements issued but not yet effective until after March 31, 2019 are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Restricted deposits represent the amount of cash pledged to secure loans payable granted by financial institutions and serve as collateral for public utility agreements such as electricity and water. Restricted deposits are classified as non-current assets, as they relate to long-term obligations and will become unrestricted only upon discharge of the obligations. Short-term deposits represent bank deposits, which do not qualify as cash equivalents.

4. TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

Accounts receivable consists of customer obligations due under normal trade terms. Although management generally does not require collateral, letters of credit may be required from the customers in certain circumstances. Management periodically performs credit evaluations of customers’ financial conditions.

Senior management reviews accounts receivable on a periodic basis to determine if any receivables will potentially be uncollectible. Management includes any accounts receivable balances that are determined to be uncollectible in the allowance for doubtful accounts. After all reasonable attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. Based on the information available, management believed the allowance for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018 was adequate.

Due to the short-term nature of the investment, the amount was classified as a loan based on ASC Topic 310-10-25 Receivables , amounting to renminbi (“RMB”) 2,000, or approximately $325. The loan was renewed, but expired on May 31, 2013. TTCQ is in the legal process of recovering the outstanding amount of $325.

7. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

Penang Property

During the fourth quarter of 2015, the operations in Malaysia planned to sell its factory building in Penang, Malaysia. In accordance with ASC Topic 360, during fiscal year 2015 the property was reclassified from investment property, which had a net book value of RM 371, or approximately $98, to assets held for sale, since there was an intention to sell the factory building. In May 2015, Trio-Tech Malaysia was approached by a potential buyer to purchase the factory building. On September 14, 2015, application to sell the property was rejected by Penang Development Corporation (PDC). The rejection was because the business activity of the purchaser was not suitable to the industry that is being promoted on said property. PDC made an offer to purchase the property, which was not at the expected value and the offer expired on March 28, 2016 and no further conversations with PDC have occurred since. Management received an expression of interest from a potential buyer in acquiring the property during second quarter of fiscal year 2019 and the sale is still under negotiation with the potential buyer during third quarter of fiscal year 2019. The completion of the sale is also subject to the approval by Penang Development Corporation. The net book values of the building was RM371, or $90, as at March 31, 2019 and RM371, or $91, as at June 30, 2018.

Mao Ye Property

During the first quarter of 2019, management decided to sell Mao Ye Property, which is one of our earlier investment properties. In order to monetize the capital gain on property, TTCQ appointed a sole agent for 6 months as of September 1, 2018 to search for suitable buyers for this property. The Company has completed the sale of thirteen of the fifteen units constituting the Mao Ye Property as the end of the third quarter 2019 which contributed the gain of $685. During the third quarter 2019, considering the current market conditions in China, management has decided not to sell the remaining two units of Mao Ye properties and as of third quarter 2019, the properties were reclassified to investment property from assets held for sale.

8. INVESTMENTS

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2011, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with JiaSheng to develop real estate projects in China. The Company invested RMB 10,000, or approximately $1,606 for a 10% interest in the newly formed joint venture, which was incorporated as a limited liability company, Chong Qing Jun Zhou Zhi Ye Co. Ltd. (the “joint venture”), in China. The Company would receive a fee of RMB 10,000, or approximately $1,606 for the services rendered in connection with bidding in certain real estate projects from the local government. Upon signing of the agreement, JiaSheng paid the Company RMB 5,000 in cash, or approximately $803. The remaining RMB 5,000, which was not recorded as a receivable as the Company considered the collectability uncertain, would be paid over 72 months commencing in 36 months from the date of the agreement when the joint venture secured a property development project stated inside the joint venture agreement. The Company considered the RMB 5,000, or approximately $803 received in cash from JiaSheng, the controlling venturer in the joint venture, as a partial return of the Company’s initial investment, resulting in a net investment of RMB 5,000 as of March 31, 2014. The Company further reduced its investments by RMB 137, or approximately $22, towards the losses from operations incurred by the joint venture, resulting in a net investment of RMB 4,863, or approximately $781. Transaction amounts in this paragraph were translated into US dollars based on the exchange rate as of March 31, 2014 published by the Monetary Authority of Singapore.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2014, TTCQ decided to dispose of its 10% interest in the joint venture after TTCQ revalued certain monetary risks relating to the development of the project. On October 2, 2013, TTCQ entered into a share transfer agreement (the “Share Transfer Agreement”) with Zhu Shu. Based on the agreement, the purchase price was to be paid by (1) RMB 10,000 worth of commercial property in Chongqing China, or approximately $1,634 consisting of commercial units measuring 668 square meters to be delivered in June 2016, and (2) the remaining RMB 8,000, or approximately $1,307 by cash consideration to be paid in sixteen quarterly equal instalments of RMB 500 per quarter commencing from January 2014. Based on ASC Topic 845 Non-monetary Consideration , the Company deferred the recognition of the gain on disposal of the 10% interest in joint venture investment until such time that the consideration is paid, so that the gain can be ascertained. The recorded value of the disposed investment amounting to $783, based on exchange rates published by the Monetary Authority of Singapore as of June 30, 2014, is classified as “other assets” under non-current assets, because it is considered a down payment for the purchase of the commercial property in Chongqing. The first three instalments, amounting to RMB 500 each due in January 2014, April 2014 and July 2014, were all outstanding until the date of disposal of the investment in the joint venture. Out of the outstanding RMB 8,000, TTCQ received RMB 100 during May 2014. Except as otherwise noted, transaction amounts in this paragraph were translated into US dollars based on the exchange rate as of October 2, 2013 published by the Monetary Authority of Singapore

On October 14, 2014, TTCQ and Jun Zhou Zhi Ye entered into a memorandum of understanding. Based on the memorandum of understanding, both parties agreed to register a sales and purchase agreement upon Jun Zhou Zhi Ye obtaining the license to sell the commercial property (the Singapore Themed Resort Project) located in Chongqing, China. The proposed agreement is for the sale of shop lots with a total area of 1,484.55 square meters as consideration for the outstanding amounts owed to TTCQ by Jun Zhou Zhi Ye as follows:

a) Long term loan receivable RMB 5,000, or approximately $814, as disclosed in Note 5, plus the interest receivable on long term loan receivable of RMB 1,250;

b) Commercial units measuring 668 square meters, as mentioned above; and

c) RMB 5,900 for the part of the unrecognized cash consideration of RMB 8,000 relating to the disposal of the joint venture.

The consideration does not include the remaining outstanding amount of RMB 2,000, or approximately $326, which will be paid to TTCQ in cash.

The shop lots are to be delivered to TTCQ upon completion of the construction of the shop lots in the Singapore Themed Resort Project. The initial targeted date of completion was December 31, 2016.

Rental Property I - Mao Ye Property

In fiscal 2008, TTCQ purchased an office in Chongqing, China from Mao Ye Property Ltd. (“Mao Ye”), for a total cash purchase price of RMB 5,554, or approximately $894. TTCQ identified a new tenant and signed a new rental agreement (653 square meters at a monthly rent of RMB 39, or approximately $6) on August 1, 2015 which expires on July 31, 2020. TTCQ signed a new rental agreement (451 square meters at a monthly rent of RMB 24, or approximately $4) on February 1, 2018 which expires on January 31, 2021.

During the first quarter of 2019, management decided to sell Mao Ye Property, which is one of our earlier investment properties. In order to monetize the capital gain on property, TTCQ appointed a sole agent for 6 months as of September 1, 2018 to search for suitable buyers for this property. The Company has completed the sale of thirteen of the fifteen units constituting the Mao Ye Property as the end of third quarter 2019 which contributed the gain of $685. During the third quarter 2019, considering the current market conditions in China, management has decided not to sell the remaining two units of Mao Ye properties and as of third quarter 2019, the properties were reclassified to investment property from assets held for sale.

Property purchased from Mao Ye generated a rental income of $15 and $58 during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019, respectively, and $22 and $75 for the same periods in last fiscal year.

Rental Property II - JiangHuai

In fiscal year 2010, TTCQ purchased eight units of commercial property in Chongqing, China from Chongqing JiangHuai Real Estate Development Co. Ltd. (“JiangHuai”) for a total purchase price of RMB 3,600, or approximately $580. Although these units were rented in the past, all eight units are currently vacant and TTCQ is working with the developer to find a suitable buyer to purchase all the commercial units. TTCQ has yet to receive the title deed for these properties; however, TTCQ has the vacancies in possession with the exception of two units, which are in the process of clarification. TTCQ is in the legal process to obtain the title deed, which is dependent on JiangHuai completing the entire project.

Property purchased from JiangHuai did not generate any rental income during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019 or during the same period in the prior fiscal year.

Rental Property III – FuLi

In fiscal 2010, TTCQ entered into a Memorandum Agreement with Chongqing FuLi Real Estate Development Co. Ltd. (“FuLi”) to purchase two commercial properties totalling 311.99 square meters (“office space”) located in Jiang Bei District Chongqing. Although TTCQ currently rents its office premises from a third party, it intends to use the office space as its office premises. The total purchase price committed and paid was RMB 4,025, or approximately $648. The development was completed and the property was handed over in April 2013 and the title deed was received during the third quarter of fiscal 2014.

The two commercial properties were leased to third parties under two separate rental agreements. One of such leases provides for a rent increase of 5% every year on May 1, commencing in 2017 until the rental agreement expires on April 30, 2019. The rental agreement of this lease has been extended for 3 years, commencing from May 01, 2019 to Apr 30, 2021 with a term of rent increase of 6% every year.

Deposits with banks in China are not insured by the local government or agency, and are consequently exposed to risk of loss. The Company believes the probability of a bank failure, causing loss to the Company, is remote.

The Company is, from time to time, the subject of litigation claims and assessments arising out of matters occurring in its normal business operations. In the opinion of management, resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements.

16. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

In fiscal year 2019, the Company operates in four segments; the testing service industry (which performs structural and electronic tests of semiconductor devices), the designing and manufacturing of equipment (which equipment tests the structural integrity of integrated circuits and other products), distribution of various products from other manufacturers in Singapore and Southeast Asia, and the real estate segment in China.

The revenue allocated to individual countries was based on where the customers were located. The allocation of the cost of equipment, the current year investment in new equipment and depreciation expense have been made based on the primary purpose for which the equipment was acquired.

All inter-segment revenue was from the manufacturing segment to the testing and distribution segments. Total inter-segment revenue was $15 and $416 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to $587 and $681 for the same periods in the last fiscal year. Corporate assets mainly consisted of cash and prepaid expenses. Corporate expenses mainly consisted of stock option expenses, salaries, insurance, professional expenses and directors' fees. Corporate expenses are allocated to the four segments. The following segment information table includes segment operating income or loss after including the corporate expenses allocated to the segments, which gets eliminated in the consolidation.

18. INCOME TAX

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes and income tax assets and liabilities, including evaluating uncertainties in the application of accounting principles and complex tax laws. The statute of limitations, in general, is open for years 2014 to 2017 for tax authorities in those jurisdictions to audit or examine income tax returns. The Company is under annual review by the tax authorities of the respective jurisdiction to which the subsidiaries belong.

The U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act, among other things reduced the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35.0% to 21.0%, eliminated corporate Alternative Minimum Tax, modified rules for expensing capital investment, and limited the deduction of interest expense for certain companies. The Tax Act is a fundamental change to the taxation of multinational companies, including a shift from a system of worldwide taxation with some deferral elements to a territorial system, current taxation of certain foreign income, a minimum tax on low tax foreign earnings, and new measures to curtail base erosion and promote U.S. production.

As the Company has a June 30 fiscal year end, the lower corporate income tax rate will be phased in, resulting in a lower U.S. statutory federal rate. In accordance with Section 15 of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company applied a blended U.S. statutory federal income tax rate of 27.5% for the year ended June 30, 2018. Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 740 requires filers to record the effect of tax law changes in the period enacted. During fiscal year 2018, the Company recognized income tax expenses of $900 related to the one-time deemed repatriation. No expenses have been recognized related to the deferred tax re-measurement and minimum tax on low tax foreign earnings. However, SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), that permits filers who may not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed (including computations) for certain income tax effects of the Act in order to determine a reasonable estimate to be recorded as provisional amounts during a measurement period ending no later than one year from the date of enactment.

Certain material provisions affecting the Company is provided below.

One-Time Mandatory Repatriation

One of the effects of the Tax Act is to transition from a world-wide to a territorial tax system. The Tax Act requires a mandatory one-time repatriation of certain post-1986 earnings and profits that were deferred from U.S. taxation by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. The basis of the tax is on cash held and specified assets which are taxed at 15.5% and 8%, respectively. The Company has elected to pay the repatriation tax over an 8-year period.

The Company recorded an estimated $900 charge in fiscal 2018 related to the one-time transition tax on the deemed repatriation of deferred foreign income, which was included in the provision for income taxes on our consolidated income statements and income taxes on our consolidated balance sheets, based on existing tax laws and the best information available as of the date of estimate.

As of second quarter of fiscal year 2019, the initial estimate for the one-time transition tax was adjusted to reflect final computation using all available data and tax legislation published post estimate. In the second quarter of fiscal 2019 upon finalization of our accounting analysis, we reversed $145 from the provision of income tax thus reducing the tax liability related to the one-time transition tax to $755. That adjustment materially impacts our provision for income taxes and effective tax rate. The significant change is due to the update of information from additional analysis performed on foreign tax pools and earnings and profits computations where the information is only available post-estimate. As at March 31, 2019, the U.S. Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Services are still in the process of issuing various regulations related to the Tax Act. The transition tax may change in the future due to changes in tax law as enacted by the U.S. Government, new guidance from federal and state regulators and related interpretations of the Tax Act.

Minimum Tax on Low Tax Foreign Earnings

The Tax Act implemented the inclusion in gross income for the Global Intangible Low-Tax Income (GILTI) for any taxable year beginning on or after January 1, 2018. This provision significantly expands current taxation of foreign subsidiary corporate earnings. The Company must generally include in current income all earnings of the foreign subsidiaries in excess of the assumed deemed return on tangible assets of the foreign subsidiaries. The Company has elected to provide for the minimum tax as future income tax expense as a period expense. The Company recorded $19 of income tax expense related to GILTI for the nine months ended March 31, 2019.

Table of Contents

Deferred Tax Re-Measurement

The re-measurement is based on the expected reversals of the deferred taxes at the estimated U.S. federal tax rates of 28.0% for the current fiscal year and 21.0% for future fiscal years. As the Company established a full valuation allowance on the U.S. deferred tax assets, the Company has not recognized any income tax effects for the deferred tax re-measurement under the Tax Act. The Company’s accounting for any possible income tax effects for the deferred tax re-measurement will be completed during the measurement period, which should not extend beyond one year from the enactment date.

The Company accrues penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits when necessary as a component of penalties and interest expenses, respectively. The Company had not accrued any penalties or interest expenses relating to unrecognized benefits as of March 31, 2019.

19. REVENUE

The Company generates revenue primarily from 3 different segments: Manufacturing, Testing and Distribution. The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when there is approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. The Company’s revenues are measured based on consideration stipulated in the arrangement with each customer, net of any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes. The revenues are recognized as separate performance obligations that are satisfied by transferring control of the product or service to the customer.

Significant Judgments

The Company’s arrangements with its customers include various combinations of products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. A product or service is considered distinct if it is separately identifiable from other deliverables in the arrangement and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer.

The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis (SSP). Determining the SSP for each distinct performance obligation and allocation of consideration from an arrangement to the individual performance obligations and the appropriate timing of revenue recognition are significant judgments with respect to these arrangements. The Company typically establishes the SSP based on observable prices of products or services sold separately in comparable circumstances to similar clients. The Company may estimate SSP by considering internal costs, profit objectives and pricing practices in certain circumstances.

Warranties, discounts and allowances are estimated using historical and recent data trends. The Company includes estimates in the transaction price only to the extent that a significant reversal of revenue is not probable in subsequent periods. The Company’s products and services are generally not sold with a right of return, nor has the Company experienced significant returns from or refunds to its customers.

Manufacturing

The Company primarily derives revenue from the sale of both front-end and back-end semiconductor test equipment and related peripherals, maintenance and support of all these products, installation and training services and the sale of spare parts. The Company’s revenues are measured based on consideration stipulated in the arrangement with each customer, net of any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes.

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customer. The Company uses judgment to evaluate whether the control has transferred by considering several indicators, including:

●

whether the Company has a present right to payment;

●

the customer has legal title;

●

the c ustomer has physical possession;

●

the customer has significant risk and rewards of ownership; and

●

the c ustomer has accepted the product, or whether customer acceptance is considered a formality based on history of acceptance of similar products (for example, when the customer has previously accepted the same equipment, with the same specifications, and when we can objectively demonstrate that the tool meets all of the required acceptance criteria, and when the installation of the system is deemed perfunctory).

-21-

Table of Contents

Not all of the indicators need to be met for the Company to conclude that control has transferred to the customer. In circumstances in which revenue is recognized prior to the product acceptance, the portion of revenue associated with its performance obligations to install product is deferred and recognized upon acceptance.

The majority of sales under the Manufacturing segment include a standard 12-month warranty. The Company has concluded that the warranty provided for standard products are assurance type warranties and are not separate performance obligations. Warranty provided for customized products are service warranties and are separate performance obligations. Transaction prices are allocated to this performance obligation using cost plus method. The portion of revenue associated with warranty service is deferred and recognized as revenue over the warranty period, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of warranty services provided by the Company.

Testing

The Company rendered testing services to manufacturers and purchasers of semiconductors and other entities who either lack testing capabilities or whose in-house screening facilities are insufficient. The Company primarily derives testing revenue from burn-in services, manpower supply and other associated services. Standalone Selling price is directly observable from the sales orders. Revenue is allocated to performance obligations satisfied at a point in time depending upon terms of the sales order. Generally, there is no other performance obligation other than what has been stated inside the sales order for each of these sales.

Terms of contract that may indicate potential variable consideration included warranty, late delivery penalty and reimbursement to solve non-conformance issues for rejected products. Based on historical and recent data trends, it is concluded that these terms of the contract do not represent potential variable consideration. The transaction price is not contingent on the occurrence of any future event.

Distribution

The Company distributes complementary products particularly equipment, industrial products and components by manufacturers mainly from the U.S., Europe, Taiwan and Japan. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales at a point in time when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customer. The Company uses judgment to evaluate whether the control has transferred by considering several indicators discussed above. The Company recognizes the revenue at a point in time, generally upon shipment or delivery of the products to the customer or distributors, depending upon terms of the sales order.

Method and Impact of Adoption

Effective as of July 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , and its related amendments using the modified retrospective transition method. This method was applied to contracts that were not complete as of the date of adoption. Under the modified retrospective transition approach, periods prior to the adoption date were not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with ASC 605.

An assessment was made on the impact of all existing arrangements as at the date of adoption, under ASC 606, to identify the cumulative effect of applying ASC 606 on the beginning retained earnings. The Company quantified the impact of the adoption on its financial position, results of operations and cash flow. The impact amounted to 0.06% of fiscal 2018 revenue or $28, which is immaterial to the Company. Hence, based on materiality principle, the Company concluded that the cumulative adjustment is not required to be made to the Company’s Beginning Retained Earnings.

The impact is primarily driven by the changes related to the accounting of standard warranty. Prior to adoption of ASC 606, the Company accounted for the estimated warranty cost as a charge to costs of sales when revenue was recognized. Upon adoption of ASC 606, the standard warranty for customized products is recognized as a separate performance obligation.

The Company has completed its adoption and implemented policies, processes and controls to support the standard’s measurement and disclosure requirements. The Company recognizes net product revenue when it satisfies the obligations as evidenced by the transfer of control of its products and services to customers. The guidance did not have material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial results.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections may result in accounts receivable, contract assets, and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. A receivable is recorded in the period the Company delivers products or provides services when the Company has an unconditional right to payment.

Contract assets primarily relate to the value of products and services transferred to the customer for which the right to payment is not just dependent on the passage of time. Contract assets are transferred to receivable when rights to payment become unconditional.

-22-

Table of Contents

A contract liability is recognized when the Company receives payment or has an unconditional right to payment in advance of the satisfaction of performance. The contract liabilities represent (1) Deferred product revenue related to the value of products that have been shipped and billed to customers and for which the control has not been transferred to the customers, and (2) Deferred service revenue, which is recorded when the Company receives consideration, or such consideration is unconditionally due, from a customer prior to transferring services to the customer under the terms of a sales contract. Deferred service revenue typically results from warranty services, and maintenance and other service contracts.

As of July 1, 2018, deferred income amounting to $260 was reclassified from other receivables to contract assets and customer deposits amounting to $31 was reclassified from accrued expenses to contract liabilities in order to establish the new opening balance for contract assets and liabilities.

The Company’s payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment of 70% to 90% of total contract consideration within 30 to 60 days of shipment, with the remainder payable within 30 days of acceptance. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, the Company has determined that its contracts generally do not include a significant financing component.

C ontract assets were recorded under other receivable while contract liabilities were recorded under accrued expenses in the balance sheet.

The following table is the reconciliation of contract balances.

	Mar 31, 2019 (Unaudited) $	July 1, 2018 (Unaudited) $
Trade Accounts Receivable	7,120	7,747
Trade Accounts Payable	3,021	3,704
Contract Assets	357	260
Contract Liabilities	1,077	31

Remaining Performance Obligation

The remaining performance obligation (RPO) disclosure provides the aggregate amount of the transaction price yet to be recognized as of the end of the reporting period and an explanation as to when the company expects to recognize these amounts in revenue. It is intended to be a statement of overall work under contract that has not yet been performed and does not include contracts in which the customer is not committed. The customer is not considered committed when they are able to terminate for convenience without payment of a substantive penalty. The disclosure includes estimates of variable consideration, except when the variable consideration is a sale based or usage-based royalty promised in exchange for a license of intellectual property. Additionally, as a practical expedient, the Company does not include contracts that have an original duration of one year or less. Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts, periodic revalidations, and adjustment for revenue that has not materialized and adjustments for currency.

As at March 31, 2019, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to RPO related to customer contracts that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied was $1,061. Given the profile of contract terms, approximately 23.5% percent of this amount is expected to be recognized as revenue over the next two years, approximately 76.5% percent between three and five years and the balance thereafter.

Practical Expedients

The Company applies the following practical expedients:

●

The Company accounts for shipping and handling costs as activities to fulfil the promise to transfer the goods, instead of a promised service to its customer.

●

The Company has not elected to adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component as the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between when the entity transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will generally be one year or less.

●

The Company has elected to adopt the practical expedient for contract costs, specifically in relation to incremental costs of obtaining a contract.

Costs to obtain a contract are not material, and the Company generally expenses such costs as incurred because the amortization period is one year or less.

Basic Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS give effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during a period. In computing diluted EPS, the average price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options and warrants.

The following table is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares used in the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the periods presented herein:

On September 14, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted the 2017 Employee Stock Option Plan (the “2017 Employee Plan”) and the 2017 Directors Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Directors Plan”) each of which was approved by the shareholders on December 4, 2017. Each of these plans is administered by the Board of Directors of the Company.

Assumptions

The fair value for the options granted were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions, assuming no expected dividends:

	Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2019	2018

Expected volatility	47.29% to 97.48 %	47.29% to 104.94 %
Risk-free interest rate	0.30% to 1.05 %	0.30% to 1.05 %
Expected life (years)	2.50 – 3.25	2.50 – 3.25

The expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. Due to higher volatility, the observation is made on a daily basis for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The observation period covered is consistent with the expected life of options. The expected life of the options granted to employees has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method as prescribed by ASC Topic 718 Stock Based Compensation , which, among other provisions, allows companies without access to adequate historical data about employee exercise behavior to use a simplified approach for estimating the expected life of a "plain vanilla" option grant. The simplified rule for estimating the expected life of such an option is the average of the time to vesting and the full term of the option. The risk-free rate is consistent with the expected life of the stock options and is based on the United States Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

2017 Employee Stock Option Plan

The Company’s 2017 Employee Plan permits the grant of stock options to its employees covering up to an aggregate of 300,000 shares of Common Stock. Under the 2017 Employee Plan, all options must be granted with an exercise price of not less than fair value as of the grant date and the options granted must be exercisable within a maximum of ten years after the date of grant, or such lesser period of time as is set forth in the stock option agreements. The options may be exercisable (a) immediately as of the effective date of the stock option agreement granting the option, or (b) in accordance with a schedule related to the date of the grant of the option, the date of first employment, or such other date as may be set by the Compensation Committee. Generally, options granted under the 2017 Employee Plan are exercisable within five years after the date of grant, and vest over the period as follows: 25% vesting on the grant date and the remaining balance vesting in equal instalments on the next three succeeding anniversaries of the grant date. The share-based compensation will be recognized in terms of the grade method on a straight-line basis for each separately vesting portion of the award. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the 2017 Employee Plan).

The Company granted options to purchase 16,000 shares of its Common Stock to employee pursuant to the 2017 Employee Plan during the nine months ended March 31, 2019. There were no stock options exercised during the nine months ended March 31, 2019.

The balance of unamortized stock-based compensation of $14 based on fair value on the grant date related to options granted under the 2017 Employee Plan is to be recognized over a period of three years.

As of March 31, 2019, there were vested employee stock options granted under the Employee Plan 2017 covering a total of 34,000 shares of Common Stock. The weighted-average exercise price was $5.72, and the weighted average contractual term was 4.06 years.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

Overview

The following should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements and notes in Item I above and with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes, and the information under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018.

Trio-Tech International (“TTI”) was incorporated in 1958 under the laws of the State of California. As used herein, the term “Trio-Tech” or “Company” or “we” or “us” or “Registrant” includes Trio-Tech International and its subsidiaries unless the context otherwise indicates. Our mailing address and executive offices are located at 16139 Wyandotte Street, Van Nuys, California 91406, and our telephone number is (818) 787-7000.

The Company is a provider of reliability test equipment and services to the semiconductor industry. Our customers rely on us to verify that their semiconductor components meet or exceed the rigorous reliability standards demanded for aerospace, communications and other electronics products.

TTI generated approximately 99.7% of its revenue from its three core business segments in the test and measurement industry, i.e. manufacturing of test equipment, testing services and distribution of test equipment during the three months ended March 31, 2019. To reduce our risks associated with sole industry focus and customer concentration, the Company expanded its business into the real estate investment and oil and gas equipment fabrication businesses in 2007 and 2009, respectively. The Company’s Indonesia operation and the Indonesia operation’s immediate holding company, which comprised the fabrication services segment, suffered continued operating losses since it commenced its operations, and the cash flow was minimal in the past years. The Company established a restructuring plan to close the fabrication services operation, and in accordance with ASC Topic 205, Presentation of Financial Statement Discontinued Operations (“ASC Topic 205”), the Company presented the operation results from fabrication services as a discontinued operation. The Real Estate segment contributed only 0.3% to the total revenue and has been insignificant.

Manufacturing

TTI develops and manufactures an extensive range of test equipment used in the "front end" and the "back end" manufacturing processes of semiconductors. Our equipment includes leak detectors, autoclaves, centrifuges, burn-in systems and boards, HAST testers, temperature-controlled chucks, wet benches and more.

Testing

TTI provides comprehensive electrical, environmental, and burn-in testing services to semiconductor manufacturers in our testing laboratories in Asia and the U.S. Our customers include both manufacturers and end-users of semiconductor and electronic components, who look to us when they do not want to establish their own facilities. The independent tests are performed to industry and customer specific standards.

Distribution

In addition to marketing our proprietary products, we distribute complementary products made by manufacturers mainly from the U.S., Europe, Taiwan and Japan. The products include environmental chambers, handlers, interface systems, vibration systems, shaker systems, solderability testers and semiconductor equipment. Besides equipment, we also distribute a wide range of components such as connectors, sockets, LCD display panels and touch-screen panels. Furthermore, our range of products are mainly targeted for industrial products rather than consumer products whereby the life cycle of the industrial products can last from 3 years to 7 years.

Real Estate

Beginning in 2007, TTI has invested in real estate property in Chongqing, China, which has generated investment income from the rental revenue from real estate we purchased in Chongqing, China, and investment returns from deemed loan receivables, which are classified as other income. The rental income is generated from the rental properties in Mao Ye and FuLi in Chongqing, China. In the second quarter of fiscal 2015, the investment in JiaSheng, which was deemed as loans receivable, was transferred to down payment for purchase of investment property in China.

Revenue for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2019 was $8,838 and $28,573, respectively, a decrease of $1,266 and $3,028, respectively, when compared to the revenue for the same periods of the prior fiscal year. As a percentage, revenue decreased by 12.5% and 9.6% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019, respectively, when compared to total revenue for the same periods of the prior year.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the $1,266 decrease in overall revenue was primarily due to:

●

a decrease in the manufacturing segment in the U.S. operations; and

●

a decrease in the testing segment in the Malaysia and Tianjin, China operations.

These decreases were partially offset by:

●

an increase in the manufacturing segment in the Singapore operations; and

●

an increase in the testing segment in the Singapore and Bangkok, Thailand operations.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2019, the $3,028 decrease in overall revenue was primarily due to:

●

a decrease in the manufacturing segment in the Singapore and Suzhou, China operations; and

●

a decrease in the testing segment in the Tianjin, China Operations and Malaysia operations.

These decreases were partially offset by:

●

an increase in the testing segment in the Singapore and Bangkok, Thailand operations; and

●

an increase in the distribution segment in the Singapore and Suzhou, China operations.

Revenue into and within China, the Southeast Asia regions and other countries (except revenue into and within the U.S.) decreased by $1,198 (or 12.2%) to $8,605, and by $2,782 (or 9.1%) to $27,640 for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2019, respectively, as compared with $9,803 and $30,422, respectively, for the same periods of last fiscal year.

Revenue into and within the U.S. was $233 and $933 for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2019, respectively, a decrease of $67 and $246, respectively, from $300 and $1,179 for the same periods of last fiscal year, respectively.

Revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019 is discussed within the four segments as follows:

Manufacturing Segment

Revenue in the manufacturing segment as a percentage of total revenue was 35.0% and 35.3% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019, respectively, an increase of 4.1% and a decrease of 2.2% of total revenue, respectively, when compared to the same periods of the last fiscal year. The absolute amount of revenue decreased by $27 to $3,097 from $3,124 and decreased by $1,776 to $10,086 from $11,862 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019, respectively, compared to the same periods of the last fiscal year.

The revenue in the manufacturing segment from a major customer accounted for 27.7% and 47.4% of our total revenue in the manufacturing segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 35.5% and 47.4% of our total revenue in the manufacturing segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

The future revenue in our manufacturing segment will be significantly affected by the purchase and capital expenditure plans of this major customer, if the customer base cannot be increased.

Testing Services Segment

Revenue in the testing segment as a percentage of total revenue was 45.1% and 44.9% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019, a decrease of 3.5% and 0.8%, respectively, of total revenue when compared to the same periods of the last fiscal year. The absolute amount of revenue decreased by $924 to $3,989 from $4,913 and by $1,635 to $12,819 from $14,454 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods of the last fiscal year.

The revenue in the testing segment from a major customer accounted for 69.7% and 80.4% of our revenue in the testing segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 72.8% and 79.2% of our total revenue in the manufacturing segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The future revenue in our testing segment will be affected by the demands of this major customer if the customer base cannot be increased. Demand for testing services varies from country to country depending on changes taking place in the market and our customers’ forecasts. As it is difficult to accurately forecast fluctuations in the market, management believes it is necessary to maintain testing facilities in close proximity to our customers in order to make it convenient for them to send us their newly manufactured parts for testing and to enable us to maintain a share of the market.

Distribution Segment

Revenue in the distribution segment as a percentage of total revenue was 19.5% and 19.6% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019, a decrease of 0.6% and an increase of 3.2%, respectively, when compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The absolute amount of revenue decreased by $306 to $1,727 from $2,033, and increased by $412 to $5,587 from $5,175 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019, respectively, compared to the same periods of the last fiscal year.

Demand in the distribution segment varies depending on the demand for our customers’ products and the changes taking place in the market and our customers’ forecasts. Hence it is difficult to accurately forecast fluctuations in the market.

Real Estate Segment

The real estate segment accounted for 0.3% of total net revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019. The absolute amount of revenue in the real estate segment decreased by $9 to $25 from $34 and by $29 to $81 from $110 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019, respectively, compared to the same periods of the last fiscal year. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in rental income in the real estate segment for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019.

During the first quarter of 2019, management decided to sell off the Mao Ye Property, which is one of our earlier investment properties. In order to monetize the capital gain on property, TTCQ appointed a sole agent for 6 months as of September 1, 2018 to search for suitable buyers for this property. During the third quarter of 2019, the Company completed the sale of 13 units constituting the Mao Ye Property which had resulted in an aggregate gain of RMB4,620, and $685 recorded included in other income, on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As the end of third quarter, the remaining 2 units of properties were reclassified to investment property from assets held for sale due to the strategic operational decision made by the management based on the current property market condition in China.

Uncertainties and Remedies

There are several influencing factors which create uncertainties when forecasting performance, such as the constantly changing nature of technology, specific requirements from the customer, decline in demand for certain types of burn-in devices or equipment, decline in demand for testing services and fabrication services, and other similar factors. One factor that influences uncertainty is the highly competitive nature of the semiconductor industry. Another is that some customers are unable to provide a forecast of the products required in the upcoming weeks; hence it is difficult to plan for the resources needed to meet these customers’ requirements due to short lead time and last-minute order confirmation. This will normally result in a lower margin for these products, as it is more expensive to purchase materials in a short time frame. However, the Company has taken certain actions and formulated certain plans to deal with and to help mitigate these unpredictable factors. For example, in order to meet manufacturing customers’ demands upon short notice, the Company maintains higher inventories, but continues to work closely with its customers to avoid stock piling. We believe that we have improved customer service through our efforts to keep our staff up to date on the newest technology and stressing the importance of understanding and meeting the stringent requirements of our customers. Finally, the Company is exploring new markets and products, looking for new customers, and upgrading and improving burn-in technology while at the same time searching for improved testing methods of higher technology chips.

We are in the process of implementing an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system as part of a multi-year plan to integrate and upgrade our systems and processes. The implementation of this ERP system is scheduled to occur in phases over the next few years and began with the migration of certain operational and financial systems in our Singapore operations to the new ERP system during the second quarter of fiscal 2017. During the third quarter of fiscal 2018, the operational and financial systems in Singapore were substantially transitioned to the new system.

This implementation effort continuing in fiscal 2019. The operational and financial systems in our Malaysia operation were substantially transitioned to the new system during the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

As a phased implementation of this system occurs, we are experiencing certain changes to our processes and procedures which, in turn, result in changes to our internal control over financial reporting. While we expect the new ERP system to strengthen our internal financial controls by automating certain manual processes and standardizing business processes and reporting across our organization, management will continue to evaluate and monitor our internal controls as processes and procedures in each of the affected areas evolve.

The Company’s primary exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates relates to non-U.S. dollar-denominated sales and operating expenses in its subsidiaries. Strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies adversely affects the U.S. dollar value of the Company’s foreign currency-denominated sales and earnings, and generally leads the Company to raise international pricing, potentially reducing demand for the Company’s products. Margins on sales of the Company’s products in foreign countries and on sales of products that include components obtained from foreign suppliers could be materially adversely affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. In some circumstances, for competitive or other reasons, the Company may decide not to raise local prices to fully offset the dollar’s strengthening, or at all, which would adversely affect the U.S. dollar value of the Company’s foreign currency-denominated sales and earnings. Conversely, a strengthening of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, while generally beneficial to the Company’s foreign currency denominated sales and earnings, could cause the Company to reduce international pricing, thereby limiting the benefit. Additionally, strengthening of foreign currencies may also increase the Company’s cost of product components denominated in those currencies, thus adversely affecting gross margins.

There are several influencing factors which create uncertainties when forecasting performance of our real estate segment, such as obtaining the rights by the joint venture to develop the real estate projects in China, inflation in China, currency fluctuations and devaluation, and changes in Chinese laws, regulations, or their interpretation.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018

The following table sets forth certain consolidated statements of income data as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively:

	Three Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2019	Mar. 31, 2018

Revenue	100.0 %	100.0 %
Cost of sales	75.4	77.9
Gross Margin	24.6 %	22.1 %
Operating expenses
General and administrative	19.7 %	17.5 %
Selling	3.0	1.8
Research and development	0.9	0.7
(Gain)/loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment	(0.1 )	(0.3 )
Total operating expenses	23.5 %	19.7 %
Income from Operations	1.4 %	2.4 %

Overall Gross Margin

Overall gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased by 2.5% to 24.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, from 22.1% in the same period of the last fiscal year. In terms of absolute dollar amounts, gross profits decreased by $58 to $2,174 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, from $2,232 as compared to the same period of the last fiscal year. There was a decrease in gross profit margin of the testing segment, in absolute dollars.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the manufacturing segment increased by 6.6% to 25.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, from 19.0% in the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase in gross profit margin was due to the change in product mix in the Singapore operations, where there was a decrease in sales of products that had lower profit margins and an increase in sales of products that had higher profit margins as compared to the same period of last fiscal year. As a result, the decrease in manufacturing revenue was lower than the decrease in cost for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the same period last fiscal year. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profits in the manufacturing segment increased by $200 to $794 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $594 for the same period of last fiscal year.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the testing segment decreased by 0.6% to 28.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, from 28.9% in the same period of the last fiscal year. The decrease of gross profit margin was mainly impacted by the decrease of sales in the Malaysia operation and Tianjin, China operation where significant portions of our cost of goods sold are fixed and as the demand of services and factory utilization decrease, the fixed costs are spread over the decreased output, which decreases the gross profit margin. The negative impact on gross profit margin was partially offset by the effort of cost saving in Tianjin, China operation and Malaysia operation. Both operation has put in effort mainly to reduce their labour cost. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the testing segment decreased by $295 to $1,127 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $1,422 for the same period of the last fiscal year.

Gross profit margin of the distribution segment is not only affected by the market price of our products, but also by our product mix, which changes frequently as a result of changes in market demand. Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the distribution segment increased by 3.7% to 14.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, from 10.4% in the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase in gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue was due to the change in product mix in the distribution segment of the Suzhou, China operations resulting in an increase in sales of products that had higher profit margin and a decline in sales of products that had lower profit margin, as compared to the same period of last fiscal year. In terms of absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the distribution segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $244, an increase of $32 as compared to $212 in the same period of last fiscal year.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the real estate segment was 36.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to 11.8% in the same period of the last fiscal year. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the real estate segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $9, an increase of $5 from $4 in the same period of last fiscal year

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2019	Mar. 31, 2018
(Unaudited)
General and administrative	$ 1,742	$ 1,773
Selling	246	181
Research and development	76	75
Gain on disposal of property, plant & equipment	(13 )	(31 )
Total	$ 2,051	$ 1,998

General and administrative expenses decreased by $31, or 1.7%, from $1,742 to $1,773 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period of last fiscal year. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the decrease in payroll related expenses in the Malaysia and Tianjin, China operations. Both operations’ sales slowed down due to market condition which triggered the cost saving effort primarily on payroll related expenses. On the other hand, the market downturn had minimal impact on Singapore operation. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was partially offset by an increase in the Singapore operations as a result of additional headcount in the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the same period of last fiscal year.

Selling expenses increased by $65, or 35.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, to $246 from $181 as compared to the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase was mainly due to higher commission expenses in the Singapore operations in the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the same period of last fiscal year. Higher commission expenses were incurred due to the Singapore operations having secured more commissionable sales in third quarter of fiscal year 2019 compared to the same period in previous year.

Income from Operations

Income from operations was $101 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to $234 for the same period of last fiscal year. The decrease was mainly due to the lower revenue and higher selling expenses as discussed earlier.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the third quarter of fiscal years 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2019	Mar. 31, 2018
(Unaudited)
Interest expense	$ 74	$ 64

Interest expense increased by $10 to $74 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $64 for the same period in the last fiscal year. The increase was mainly due to increased utilization of short-term loan in the Singapore operation and long-term loan in the Malaysia operation. The bank loan payable increased by $1,130 to $2,934 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to $1,804 as at June 30, 2018.

Other Income

Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2019	Mar. 31, 2018
(Unaudited)
Interest income	$ 31	$ 19
Other rental income	28	28
Exchange loss	(11 )	(5 )
Other miscellaneous income	80	69
Total	$ 128	$ 111

Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $17, an increase of $128 as compared to $111 for the same period last fiscal year. This increase was mainly attributable to higher interest income received due to placement of interest-bearing deposits by the Malaysia, Singapore and Chongqing, China operations.

Income Tax Expenses

Income Tax expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $209, a change of $771 as compared to income tax expense of $980 for the same period last fiscal year. This change was mainly due to the reversal of $145 from provision of income tax. The reversal was made after finalization of the One-Time Mandatory Repatriation Tax summarized in the financial statements under Item 1 above in this Form 10-Q. Initially, during the third quarter of fiscal year 2018, we made an income tax provision of $900 on an estimated basis. During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, upon finalization of the One-Time Mandatory Repatriation Tax, we determined that an adjustment was required, resulting in a $145 tax liability reversal which in turn reduced the income tax provision to $755. This adjustment materially impacted our provision for income taxes and effective tax rate.

The significant change in the tax liability provision was due to the update of information from additional analysis performed on foreign tax pools and earnings and profits computations.

Non-controlling Interest

As of March 31, 2019, we held a 55% interest in Trio-Tech (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd., Trio-Tech (Kuala Lumpur) Sdn. Bhd., SHI International Pte. Ltd. and PTSHI Indonesia, and a 76% interest in Prestal Enterprise Sdn. Bhd. The non-controlling interest for the three months ended March 31, 2019 in the net loss of subsidiaries was $28, compared to income of $34 for the same period of the previous fiscal year. The decrease in the non-controlling interest in the net income of subsidiaries was attributable to the decrease in net income generated by the Malaysia testing operation due to a decrease in testing revenue which decreased the net profit.

Profit from Discontinued Operations

Profit from discontinued operations was $2 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to a loss of $6 for the same period of the last fiscal year. This discontinued operation refers to fabrication service segment. The increase in the profit from discontinued operation was attributable to the unrealised exchange gain as at March 31, 2019.

Net Income

Net income was $683 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, an increase of $1,422 as compared to net loss of $739 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in net income was mainly due to the gain on disposal of Mao Ye properties and also the absence of provision for repatriation tax in third quarter of fiscal year 2019, which was provided for in the third quarter of 2018.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.19 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to loss per share of $0.21 for the same period in the last fiscal year. Basic earnings per share from discontinued operations were nil for both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.19 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to loss per share of $0.20 for the same period in the last fiscal year. Diluted earnings per share from discontinued operations were nil for both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

Loss from operations	$ (8 )	$ (105 )

Loss from operations in the manufacturing segment was $8 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, a decrease of $97 as compared to loss from operation of $105 in the same period of the last fiscal year. The decrease was primarily due to an increase of $200 in the gross margin, as discussed earlier, which partially offset an increase of $103 in operating expenses. Operating expenses for the manufacturing segment were $802 and $699 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in operating expenses was mainly due to an increase in selling expenses of $80, general and administrative expenses of $50, and partially offset by a decrease in corporate overhead of $27 as compared to the same period of last fiscal year. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in headcount in the Singapore operations. The increase in selling expenses was due to an increase in commission expenses in the Singapore operations as the commissionable revenue increased compared to the same period last fiscal year. The decrease in corporate overhead expenses was due to a change in the corporate overhead allocation as compared to the same period last fiscal year. Corporate charges are allocated on a pre-determined fixed charge basis.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the manufacturing segment increased by 0.6% to 22.6% for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, from 22.0% in the same period of the last fiscal year. In absolute dollar amounts, gross profit decreased by $336 to $2,280 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to $2,616 for the same period in last fiscal year. The decrease in absolute dollar amount of gross margin was primarily due to a decrease in orders in the Singapore operation, Suzhou, China operations and U.S. operation, which contributed to a decrease in the gross margin.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the testing segment decreased by 4.5% to 27.1% for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 from 31.6% in the same period of the last fiscal year. The decrease in profit margin as a percentage of revenue was mainly due to a decrease in demand from our customers in the Tianjin, China operation and Malaysia operation, where significant portions of our cost of goods sold are fixed. As the demand of services and factory utilization decreases, the fixed costs are spread over the decreased output, which decreases the gross profit margin. In terms of absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the testing segment decreased by $1,105 to $3,468 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, from $4,573 for the same period of the last fiscal year.

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the distribution segment increased by 2.4% to 13.5% for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, from 11.1% in the same period of the last fiscal year. In terms of absolute dollar amounts, gross profit in the distribution segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 was $756, an increase of $179 as compared to $577 in the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase in absolute dollar amount of gross margin was due to increase of distribution revenue in the Singapore operation and Suzhou, China operation which was offset by a decrease of distribution revenue in the Malaysia operation. The gross profit margin of the distribution segment was not only affected by the market price of our products, but also our product mix, which changes frequently as a result of changes in market demand .

Gross profit margin as a percentage of revenue in the real estate segment increased by 15.8% to 35.8% for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, from 20.0% in the same period of the last fiscal year. In terms of absolute dollar amounts, gross profit increased by $7 to $29 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to $22 for the same period in last fiscal year.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Nine Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2019	Mar. 31, 2018
(Unaudited)
General and administrative	$ 5,223	$ 5,339
Selling	580	612
Research and development	270	377
Gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment	(13 )	(20 )
Total	$ 6,060	$ 6,308

General and administrative expenses decreased by $116, or 2.2%, from $5,339 to $5,223 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period of the last fiscal year. There was a decrease in general and administrative expenses in the U.S., Tianjin, China operations and Suzhou, China operations, which was partially offset by the increase in general and administrative expenses in all other operations.

The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the decrease in payroll related and bonus expenses in the U.S. operation, Tianjin, China operation and Malaysia operation. This decrease was partially offset mainly by an increase in medical expenses in the Singapore operation for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, as compared to the same period of last fiscal year.

Selling expenses decreased by $32, or 5.2%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, from $612 to $580 compared to the same period of the last fiscal year. The decrease was mainly due to an decrease in commission expenses in the U.S operations in the nine months ended March 31, 2019, and selling expenses further decreased due to adoption of a new revenue standard as described in Note 19 to financial statements included in Part1 Item1 of this Form 10-Q as compared to the same period of last fiscal year.

Research and development expenses decreased by $107, for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, from $377 to $270, as compared to the same period of the last fiscal year. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease of expenses in the Suzhou, China operation. The Suzhou operation did not incur research and development expenses in the nine months ended March 31, 2019 whereas there was a one-off research and development project in the Suzhou, China operations in the nine months ended March 31, 2018.

Income from Operations

Income from operations was $451 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to $1,479 for the same period of the last fiscal year. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in gross profit margin being greater than the decrease in operating expenses, as discussed earlier.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Nine Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2019	Mar. 31, 2018
(Unaudited)
Interest expense	$ 250	$ 174

Interest expense increased by $76 to $250 from $174 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase was due to increase utilization of short-term loans in the Singapore operation and long-term loans in the Malaysia operation. The bank loan payable increased by $1,130 to $2,934 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to $1,804 as at June 30, 2018.

Other Income

Other income for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Nine Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2019	Mar. 31, 2018
(Unaudited)
Interest income	$ 67	$ 39
Other rental income	84	81
Exchange loss	(78 )	(26 )
Bad debt recovery	2	-
Other miscellaneous income	145	217
Total	$ 220	$ 311

Other income for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 was $220, a decrease of $189 as compared to $311 for the same period of last fiscal year. This decrease was mainly attributable to the existence of a non-recurring reimbursement income for the nine months ended March 31, 2018.

Income Tax Expenses

Income tax expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 was $159, a change of $876 as compared to income tax expense of $1,035 for the same period last fiscal year. This change was mainly due to the provision for repatriation tax of $900 for nine months ended March 31, 2019. During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, upon finalization of the One-Time Mandatory Repatriation Tax, we determined that an adjustment was required, resulting in a $145 tax liability reversal which in turn reduced the income tax provision to $755. These adjustments materially impacted our provision for income taxes and effective tax rate.

The significant change in the tax liability provision was due to the update of information from additional analysis performed on foreign tax pools and earnings and profits computations.

Non-controlling Interest

As of March 31, 2019, we held a 55% interest in Trio-Tech Malaysia, Trio-Tech (Kuala Lumpur) Sdn. Bhd., SHI International Pte. Ltd. and PTSHI Indonesia, and a 76% interest in Prestal Enterprise Sdn. Bhd. The net loss attributable to our non-controlling interest in these subsidiaries for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 was $129, a decrease of $190 as compared to net income of $61 for the same period of last fiscal year. The decrease was attributable to the decrease in net income generated by the Malaysia testing operation due to a decrease in testing revenue which decreased the net profit.

Loss from Discontinued Operations

Loss from discontinued operations was $1 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, a decrease of $10 as compared to a loss of $11 for the same period of the last fiscal year.

Net Income

Net income was $967 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, an increase of $397 as compared to a net income of $570 for the same period in the last fiscal year. The increase was mainly due to gain on disposal of the Mao Ye properties.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.30 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to $0.15 for the same period in the last fiscal year. Basic earnings per share from discontinued operations were nil for both the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

Segment Information

The revenue, gross profit margin, and income or loss from operations in each segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, are presented below. As the segment revenue and gross margin for each segment have been discussed in the previous section, only the comparison of income from operations is discussed below.

Manufacturing Segment

The revenue, gross margin and income from operations for the manufacturing segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

	Nine Months Ended

(Unaudited)
Revenue	$ 10,086	$ 11,862
Gross margin	22.6 %	22.1 %
Income from operations	$ 175	$ 188

Income from operations from the manufacturing segment was $175 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, a decrease of $13 as compared to $188 in the same period of the last fiscal year, due to a decrease in gross margin by $335 which was partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses. Operating expenses for the manufacturing segment were $2,105 and $2,428 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease in operating expenses of $323 was mainly due to a decrease in general and administrative expenses by $44, a decrease in selling expenses by $52, a decrease in corporate overhead by $98 and a decrease in research and development expenses by $128, as compared to the same period of last fiscal year.

Testing Segment

The revenue, gross margin and (loss) / income from operations for the testing segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

Revenue	$ 12,819	$ 14,454
Gross margin	27.1 %	31.6 %
(Loss) / Income from operations	$ (134 )	$ 1,281

Loss from operations in the testing segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 was $134, a deterioration of $1,415 compared to income from operation of $1,281 in the same period of the last fiscal year. The deterioration was attributable to the decrease in gross margin by $1,105 as discussed earlier. The increase in operating expenses of $310 also further decreased the operating income. Operating expenses were $3,602 and $3,292 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The higher operating expenses were mainly attributable to an increase in general and administrative expenses by $168 and an increase in corporate overheads by $98. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due to an increase of medical expenses and an increase of headcount in the Singapore operations. The increase in corporate overhead expenses was due to a change in the corporate overhead allocation as compared to the same period last fiscal year. Corporate charges are allocated on a pre-determined fixed charge basis.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2019, total assets increased by $526 from $36,474 as at June 30, 2018 to $37,000.

Table of Contents

Cash and cash equivalents were $4,602 as at March 31, 2019, reflecting a decrease of $1,937 from $6,539 as at June 30, 2018, mainly due to placement of interest-bearing deposits by the Singapore, Malaysia and Chongqing, China operation. This was partially offset by improved collections in the U.S. operation.

Short term deposits were $3,646 as at March 31, 2019, reflecting an increase of $2,993 from $653 as at June 30, 2018, primarily due to placement of deposit by the Singapore, Malaysia and Chongqing, China operations.

As at March 31, 2019, the trade accounts receivable balance decreased by $627 to $7,120 from $7,747 as at June 30, 2018, mainly due to decreased sales in the Malaysia operation and the Tianjin, China operation for the nine months ended March 31, 2019. The accounts receivables turnover days were 70 and 72 days at the end of the third quarter of fiscal year 2019 and for the fiscal year ended 2018, respectively.

As at March 31, 2019, other receivables were $1,034, reflecting an increase of $153 from $881 as at June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily due to an increase of advance payment made in the Singapore operation.

Inventories as at March 31, 2019 were $2,918, a decrease of $12 as compared to $2,930 as at June 30, 2018. The decrease in inventory was mainly due to the Singapore operation managing and monitoring its purchases to meet the requirements.

Prepaid expenses were $307 as at March 31, 2019, compared to $208 as at June 30, 2018. The increase of $99 was primarily due to an increase in prepayment for insurance expenses, software related expenses and NYSE annual fees in the Singapore and U.S. operations.

Investment properties were $828 as at March 31, 2019 compared to $1,146 at June 30,2018. The decrease of $318 was primarily due to disposal of Mao Ye investment properties.

Property, plant and equipment, net increased by $751 from $11,935 as at June 30, 2018, to $12,686 as at March 31, 2019, mainly due to higher capital expenditure in the Suzhou, China operations, Malaysia operation and Tianjin, China operation for the nine months ended March 31, 2018.

Other assets decreased by $521 to $1,728 as at March 31, 2019, as compared to $2,249 as at June 30, 2018. This was mainly due to reclassification of down payment made for the purchase of property, plant & equipment to fixed assets by the Malaysia and Tianjin, China operation.

Accounts payable decreased by $683 to $3,021 as at March 31, 2019, as compared to $3,704 as at June 30, 2018. This was mainly due to more payments released in the first, second and third quarters of fiscal year 2019 compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018.

Accrued expenses increased by $710 to $3,882 as at March 31, 2019, as compared to $3,172 as at June 30, 2018. The increase in accrued expenses was mainly due to customer deposits in the Singapore operation and Suzhou, China operations.

Bank loans payable increased by $1,130 to $2,934 as at March 31, 2019, as compared to $1,804 as at June 30, 2018. This was due to an additional loan availed by the Malaysia operation, which was partially offset by repayment of bank loans by the Singapore operation.

Capital leases decreased by $192 to $582 as at March 31, 2019, as compared to $774 as at June 30, 2018. This was due to repayment of capital leases by the Malaysia and Singapore operations.

Liquidity Comparison

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $160 to $2,962 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $3,122 during the same period of the last fiscal year. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to an increase in cash outflow of $162 from other receivables, $106 from prepaid expenses and other current asset, and $685 from gain on disposal of assets for sale. The decrease in net cash was partially offset by increase in cash inflow from net income of $397, an increase of cash inflow of $234 from accounts receivables and $816 from other assets, an increase in cash inflow of $566 in inventories, a decrease in cash outflow of $190 from accounts payable and accrued expenses and also a decrease in cash outflow of $826 for income tax expenses.

Net cash used in investing activities increased by $2,764 to $4,569 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $1,805 during the same period of the last fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to $526 in capital spending coupled with increase in $2,658 in investments in unrestricted short-term deposits and a decrease of $484 in proceeds from maturing of unrestricted and restricted term deposits and short-term deposits. This increase in net cash used in investing activities was partially offset by the $943 from sale of assets held for sale.

Net cash used in financing activities decreased by $1,260 to $195 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $1,455 during the same period of the last fiscal year. The decrease was mainly due to an increase in cash generated through borrowings from bank loans and capital leases by $829 and an increase of $350 in cash generated from stock option exercised.

We believe that our projected cash flows from operations, borrowing availability under our revolving lines of credit, cash on hand, trade credit and the secured bank loan will provide the necessary financial resources to meet our projected cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Critical Accounting Estimates & Policies

Effective as of July 1, 2018, the Company has adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from contracts with Customers (Topic 606), and its related amendments using modified retrospective transition method. We have completed our adoption and implemented policies, processes and controls to support the standard’s measurement and disclosure requirements as described in Note 1 to the financial statements included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

The amendments in ASU 2016-02 ASC Topic 842: Leases become effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. These amendments require companies to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date of the applicable lease: (a) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (b) a right-of-use asset, which is as an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The Company will adopt these standards starting in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 on a modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the period through a cumulative-effect adjustment. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and expects that there will be an increase in assets and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at adoption due to the recognition of right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities. Upon adoption, the Company expects that its financial statement disclosure will be expanded to present additional details of its leasing arrangements.

There have been no other significant changes in the critical accounting policies from those, disclosed in” Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in the most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Except as discussed below, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Implementation

We are in the process of implementing an ERP system, as part of a multi-year plan to integrate and upgrade our systems and processes. The implementation of this ERP system is scheduled to occur in phases over the next few years and began with the migration of certain operational and financial systems in our Singapore operations to the new ERP system during the second quarter of fiscal 2017. During the third quarter of fiscal 2018, the operational and financial systems in Singapore were substantially transitioned to the new system.

This implementation effort is continuing in fiscal 2019. The operational and financial systems in our Malaysia operation were substantially transitioned to the new system during the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

Adoption of New Revenue Recognition Accounting Standard

In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we implemented controls relating to adoption of the new revenue recognition accounting standards that were adopted in fiscal 2019 to ensure that the revenue contracts and related policies and process flows were sufficiently reviewed to identify adoption impacts.
