NET SALES

Net sales increased $80,648 or 9% for the three months ended September 30, 2014 to $991,908 compared to $911,260 for the three months ended September 30, 2013.  Gross sales for Seasonal Candy increased $91,897 to $507,624 for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $415,727 for 2013.  Gross sales for Chase Candy decreased $16,017 to $492,080 for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $508,097 for 2013.  Sales returns and allowances for the Company decreased $5,254 to $8,710 for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $13,964 for 2013.  Other sales for the Company decreased $486 to $914 for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $1,400 for 2013.

The 22% increase in gross sales of Seasonal Candy of $91,897 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 over the same period ended September 30, 2013, is primarily due to the following: 1) increased orders from various customers in the clamshell seasonal division totaling approximately $71,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due a to earlier shipments; 2) increased orders from various customers in the bulk seasonal division netting approximately $32,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due a to earlier shipments; offset by 3) decreased orders in the generic seasonal division by approximately $11,000 due to decreased sales to one customer.

The 3% decrease in gross sales of Chase Candy of $16,017 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 over the same period ended September 30, 2013, is primarily due to the net effect of the following:  1) decreased sales of the L276 Cherry Mash Distributor Pack division by approximately $42,000 versus the same period a year ago primarily due to one customer decreasing their orders; offset by 2) increased sales of the L212 Mini Mash division by approximately $14,000 versus the same period a year ago due to one customer increasing their orders; 3) increased sales of the L278 Mini Mash division by approximately $10,000 versus the same period a year ago due to two customers increasing their orders; and 4) other fluctuations netting an increase of approximately $2,000.

COST OF SALES

The cost of sales increased $56,716 to $715,070 or 72% of related revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2014, compared to $658,354 or 72% of related revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013.

The 9% increase in cost of sales of $56,716 is primarily due to the 9% increase in net sales of $80,648.  Due to volatility in the regions where these raw materials are grown, management anticipates the prices of these raw materials to continue to fluctuate primarily based on supply and demand.

 Net cash used in financing activities $(18,437) $(34,403)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)

Management has no material commitments for capital expenditures during the remainder of fiscal 2015.  The $11,386 of cash used in investing activities is the purchase of equipment used during the manufacturing process.  The $272,538 of cash used in operating activities is fully detailed in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flow on page six and does include a $100,000 settlement payment made on July 7, 2014.  The $123,295 of cash provided by financing activities is the receipt of $135,000 drawn from a line-of-credit, net of principal payments on equipment and vehicle loans. At September 30, 2014, the Company had $215,000 remaining on the line-of-credit, which could be utilized to help fund any working capital requirements.  Management expects that projected cash flows will enable the Company to pay the full balance on the line-of-credit prior to December 31, 2014.

Management believes that the projected cash flow from operations, combined with its existing cash balances, will be sufficient to meet its funding requirements for the foreseeable future.

Management believes that inflation will have only a minimal effect on future operations since such effects will be offset by sales price increases, which are not expected to have a significant effect upon demand.
