The main reason for that is USS is tying itself to an existing, but dying business model and technology. While this plan may make sense in the short-term, it does not have long-term sustainability. The market has already indicated that it is changing, adapting to minimills, and this trend would likely continue.

Wilkerson’s competitors have cut prices on their pumps, in order to maintain market share, Wilkerson also cut the price of their pumps. This dropped Wilkerson’s GM by about 15%. At the same time, Wilkerson was able to increase the price of their flow controllers by 10% without a drop in demand.

Because of the big decline in the NiMH sales, we decided to be conservative with our ultracapacitor forecast and used the 2011 sales results as our 2012 forecast. We kept the price of the Ultracapacitor at $18, but lowered the price of the NiMH to $9 due to market pressure and decline in sales. The R&D investments were the same as 2011.

We are still losing money after the second year. However, my group realized that new tooling was an important cost. Therefore, we start thinking how to reduce it. We find out that if the demand stays between 300,000 to 345,000 units, the supplier will not need new tools. Then, it will bring the cost of new tooling to 0 for the coming years. Let’s take the worst case scenario and try to compute the savings for year 3, if the pistons are outsourced.
