CONTINENTAL MATERIALS CORPORATION
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION FORM 10-Q
NOTES TO THE QUARTERLY CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
QUARTER ENDED MARCH 30, 2019
(Unaudited)
1. Significant Accounting Policies:
Basis of Presentation:
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are prepared pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally accompanying the annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of Continental Materials Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 29, 2018 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of that date. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s latest annual report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (none of which were other than normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods and to ensure the financial statements are not misleading. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2018 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2019 presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on the consolidated results of operations, the net decrease in cash or the total assets, liabilities or shareholders’ equity of the Company. During the quarter ended March 30, 2019 the Company sold substantially all of the assets of Transit Mix Concrete Company’s ready-mix business and Daniels sand operation. The assets and liabilities related to these operations are presented as held for sale in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. See Note 15. Accordingly, the operations of these businesses are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
Revenue Recognition:
Effective December 31, 2017, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and related amendments, which creates a single source of revenue guidance for all companies in all industries and is more principles-based than previous revenue guidance. The Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of this standard did not result in significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies, business processes, systems or controls, or have a material impact on its financial position, consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows. As such, prior period financial statements were not recast and there was no cumulative effect adjustment upon adoption.
Sales are recognized when control of the promised goods or services transfers to the Company’s customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company’s payment terms generally range between 30 to 90 days after invoice is billed to the customer. Sales are reported net of sales tax. Shipping and other transportation costs paid by the Company and rebilled to the buyer are recorded gross (as both sales and cost of sales). The Company generally recognizes revenue from the sale of products at the time the products are shipped.
While the return of products is generally not allowed, some large customers have been granted the right to return a certain amount at the end of the normal selling season for seasonal products. Sales returns and allowances are estimated based on current program terms and historical experience. Provisions for estimated returns, discounts,
6
volume rebates and other price adjustments are provided for in the same period the related revenues are recognized and are netted against revenues.
The Company is responsible for warranties related to the manufacture of its HVAC products and estimates the future warranty claims based upon historical experience and management estimates. The Company reviews warranty and related claims activities and records provisions, as necessary.
The Company does not perform installation services except for installation of electronic access and security systems in the Door segment. These installation service contracts are generally short-term in nature, usually less than 30 days. It was determined for the installation service contracts there are two performance obligations, the equipment and the installation services. The transaction price for these contracts is allocated to each performance obligation based on its stated stand-alone selling price. Revenue is recognized at a point in time as each performance obligation is completed. No maintenance or service contracts are offered by the Company.
See Note 7, Segment reporting for disaggregation of revenue by segment.
Leases
Effective December 30, 2018 (the beginning of fiscal 2019) the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” which superseded Topic 840, “Leases”. As allowed under the new accounting standard, the Company elected to apply practical expedients to carry forward the original lease determinations, lease classifications and accounting of initial direct costs for all asset classes at the time of adoption. The Company also elected not to separate lease components from non-lease components for asset categories, except office space, and to exclude short-term leases from its Consolidated Balance Sheet. For the office space lease category the election was made to report lease and non-lease components separately as the non-lease components are billed and paid separately and are not a fixed amount over the lease term. The implicit discount rate of leases is used to calculate present values when available. When an implicit discount rate is not readily available an incremental borrowing rate is used to calculate present values.
2. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method that requires deferred income taxes to reflect the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the tax and financial reporting bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities recognized are based on the tax rates in effect in the year in which differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, based on available positive and negative evidence, it is “more likely than not” (greater than a 50% likelihood) that some or all of the net deferred tax assets will not be realized.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted in the United States. The Tax Act significantly revised the U.S. tax code by, among other items, reducing the Company’s federal tax rate from 34% to 21%, providing for the full expensing of certain depreciable property and eliminating the corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT).
The Tax Act repeals AMT and allows for all existing credit carryforwards to be used to offset regular tax liability for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. Additionally, for tax years 2018, 2019 and 2020, to the extent that the AMT credit carryover exceeds the regular tax liability, 50% of the excess AMT credit is refundable. Any remaining credits will be fully refundable in 2021. For state tax purposes, net operating losses can be carried forward for various periods for the states that the Company is required to file in. California Enterprise Zone credits can be used through 2023 while Colorado credits can be carried forward for 7 years. The Company has established a valuation reserve related to a portion of the California Enterprise Zone credit not expected to be utilized prior to expiration.
The Company’s income tax returns are subject to audit by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) and state tax authorities. The amounts recorded for income taxes reflect the Company’s tax positions based on research and interpretations of complex laws and regulations. The Company accrues liabilities related to uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in its tax returns. The Company did not identify any such uncertain tax positions as of March 30, 2019 or December 29, 2018.

3. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. There is a hierarchy of three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
|
|
Level 2 | Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. |
|
|
Level 3 | Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Unobservable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability including assumptions about risk. |
The following methods were used to estimate the fair value of all other financial instruments recognized in the accompanying balance sheet:
Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amount approximates fair value and was valued as Level 1.
Revolving Bank Loan Payable: Fair value is estimated based on the borrowing rates then available to the Company for bank loans with similar terms and maturities and determined through the use of a discounted cash flow model. The carrying amount of the Revolving Bank Loan Payable represents a reasonable estimate of the corresponding fair value as the Company’s debt is held at variable interest rates and was valued as Level 2.
There were no transfers between fair value measurement levels of any financial instruments in the current quarter.
4. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This new revenue standard creates a single source of revenue guidance for all companies in all industries and is more principles-based than current revenue guidance. Subsequently, the FASB issued various ASUs to provide further clarification around certain aspects of ASC 606. This standard was adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. See Note 1 for further discussion of the Company’s revenue recognition policies and practices.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), requiring that the statement of cash flows explain the change in total cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This standard was adopted by the Company is the first quarter of fiscal 2018 and did not have a material impact to the consolidated statement of cash flows.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” which superseded Topic 840, “Leases”. The new accounting standard was effective for the Company beginning on December 30, 2018 (the beginning of fiscal 2019) and required the recognition on the balance sheet of right-of-use assets (ROU) and lease liabilities for all long-term leases, including operating leases. The Company elected the optional transition method and adopted the new guidance on December 30, 2018 on a modified retrospective basis with no restatement of prior period amounts. As allowed under the new accounting standard, the Company elected to apply practical expedients to carry forward the original lease determinations, lease classifications and accounting of initial direct costs for all asset classes at the time of adoption. The Company also elected not to separate lease components from non-lease components for most asset categories and to exclude short-term leases from its Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company’s adoption of the new standard resulted in the recognition of ROUs of $5,353,000 and liabilities of $5,427,000 related to operating leases, with no material cumulative effect adjustment to equity as of the date of adoption. In connection with the adoption of this guidance, as required, the Company reclassified deferred rent liabilities as reductions to lease assets. Adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income or Cash Flows. See Note 13.
There are no other significant prospective accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

5. Operating results for the first three months of 2019 are not necessarily indicative of performance for the entire year due to the seasonality of most of the Company’s products. Historically, sales of the Evaporative Cooling segment are higher in the first and second quarters, sales of the Concrete, Aggregates and Construction Supplies (CACS) segment are higher in the second and third quarters and sales of furnaces in the Heating and Cooling segment are higher in the third and fourth quarters. Sales of the Door segment are generally more evenly spread throughout the year.
6. There is no difference in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the three-month periods ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018 as the Company does not have any dilutive instruments.
7. The Company operates primarily in two industry groups, Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) and Construction Products. The Company has identified two reportable segments within each of the industry groups: the Heating and Cooling segment and the Evaporative Cooling segment in the HVAC industry group and the CACS segment and the Door segment in the Construction Products industry group.
The Heating and Cooling segment primarily produces and sells gas-fired wall furnaces, console heaters and fan coils from the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Williams Furnace Co. (WFC) of Colton, California. The Evaporative Cooling segment primarily produces and sells evaporative coolers from the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Phoenix Manufacturing, Inc. (PMI) of Phoenix, Arizona. Sales of these two segments are nationwide, but are concentrated in the southwestern United States. Concrete, aggregates and construction supplies were offered from numerous locations along the Southern Front Range of Colorado operated by the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries Castle Concrete Company and Transit Mix Concrete Co., of Colorado Springs and Transit Mix of Pueblo, Inc. of Pueblo, Colorado (the three companies collectively are referred to as TMC). On February 1, 2019 the Company sold the assets of the ready-mix and Daniels sand operations of TMC, previously reported in the CACS segment. The Company retained the remaining aggregates operations and the construction supply business, and the associated assets and liabilities, which were rebranded as Castle Aggregates and Castle Rebar & Supply, respectively. See additional discussion of the discontinued operations in Note 15. The Door segment sells hollow metal and wood doors, door frames and related hardware, lavatory fixtures and electronic access and security systems from the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, McKinney Door and Hardware, Inc. (MDHI), which operates out of facilities in Pueblo and Colorado Springs, Colorado. Sales of these two segments are highly concentrated in the Southern Front Range of Colorado although door sales are also made throughout the United States.
In addition to the above reporting segments, an “Unallocated Corporate” classification is used to report the unallocated expenses of the corporate office which provides treasury, insurance and tax services as well as strategic business planning and general management services. Expenses related to the corporate information technology group are allocated to all locations, including the corporate office.
The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based on a number of criteria including operating income, return on investment and other strategic objectives. Operating income is determined by deducting operating expenses from all revenues. In computing operating income, none of the following has been added or deducted: unallocated corporate expenses, interest, other income or loss or income taxes.

8. On September 15, 2016 a Partial Summary Judgment Order was issued regarding the Company’s previously disclosed litigation, Continental Materials Corporation v. Valco, Inc., Civil Action No. 2014-cv-2510, filed in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado. The suit regards a Fee Sand and Gravel Lease (“Lease”) between the Company as Lessee and Valco, Inc. (“Valco”) as Lessor that calls for the payment of royalties over the life of the Lease on an agreed 50,000,000 tons of sand and gravel reserves. In the suit the Company sought declaratory judgment and damages pursuant to the Lease on the grounds that Agreed Sand and Gravel Reserves of 50 million tons did not exist, and for other relief including return of approximately $1,470,000 in royalty payments made by the Company to Valco in excess of tonnage actually produced (“Prepayments”). Based on information obtained through discovery, the Company alleges, in addition to the abovementioned claims, nondisclosure or concealment by Valco of material facts concerning the existence of Agreed Sand and Gravel Reserves of 50 million tons, and breach of warranty concerning the same. Valco asserted counterclaims against the Company alleging breach of contract and seeking declaratory judgment regarding the Company’s refusal to make further royalty payments under the Lease. In the ordinary course of business and absent any breach by Valco, the Company is required to make quarterly royalty payments amounting to not less than $300,000 in a calendar year. In response to Valco’s breaches of contract, the Company stopped making royalty payments at the start of the 2015 calendar year.
10
The Company has asserted partial failure of consideration as an affirmative defense to Valco’s counterclaims to offset the alleged back-due quarterly royalty payments and the amount due on quarterly royalty payments in the future. The Partial Summary Judgment Order resolved many of the Company’s claims in Valco’s favor, but did not resolve Valco’s counterclaims or the Company’s affirmative defense. During the third quarter of 2016, the Company recorded a $632,000 write-down representing the portion of the royalty overpayment paid prior to the statutorily allowed period because of litigation risk attendant to recovering that amount. The Company sought certification of the Partial Summary Judgment Order because it and its legal counsel believe the court improperly resolved factual issues in its Partial Summary Judgment Order that should have been decided by a jury. On February 23, 2017, the Partial Summary Judgment Order was certified for immediate appeal, and all other claims, counterclaims and affirmative defenses were stayed pending the resolution of that appeal. The Company filed a notice of appeal which was denied on July 2, 2018 for lack of jurisdiction and remanded to the trial court for further proceedings. Subsequently, the trial court vacated its September 15, 2016 Partial Summary Judgment Order and set the matter for trial by jury on all issues on January 28, 2019. The Company filed its Third Amended Complaint on November 16, 2018 in which it dropped its claim to recover royalty overpayments but continued to seek to recover $1,470,000 in Prepayments. The Company wrote off the remaining royalty overpayment of $627,000, previously reported as Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, as of December 29, 2018 due to filing of the Third Amended Complaint. At the trial preparation conference on January 18, 2019, the court informed the parties that the trial would be rescheduled due to an ongoing shutdown of the federal government. The jury trial on all issues was then rescheduled for May 13, 2019. On April 30, 2019 the court entered an order stating: “Due to a conflict in the Court’s calendar, the trial preparation conference set for May 3, 2019 and the May 13, 2019, trial date are vacated.” The trial date has yet to be rescheduled.
The Company has paid royalties on approximately 17,700,000 tons, including the Prepayments, of the 50,000,000 tons of sand and gravel reserves through the end of the third quarter of 2014. The impact of these proceedings could have a material financial effect on the Company; however, the Company does not believe that there is a reasonable basis for estimating the financial impact, if any, of the final outcome of these proceedings and accordingly no accrual or reserve has been recorded in compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
9. The Company issued a total of 21,000 shares to the seven eligible board members effective February 7, 2019 as full payment for their 2019 retainer fee. The Company issued a total of 16,000 shares to the eight eligible board members effective January 16, 2018 as full payment for their 2018 retainer fee. All shares were issued under the 2010 Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan.
10. The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) effective November 18, 2011. The Company entered into the Tenth Amendment to Credit Agreement effective March 22, 2019. The Company had previously entered into nine separate amendments to the Credit Agreement. Cumulatively, the amendments were entered into by the Company to, among other things, (i) modify certain of the financial covenants, (ii) adjust the amount of the Revolving Commitment, (iii) terminate the Term Loan Commitment upon the repayment in full of the outstanding principal balance (and accrued interest thereon) of the Term Loan, (iv) modify the Borrowing Base calculation to provide for borrowing availability in respect of new Capital Expenditures, (v) decrease the interest rates on the Revolving Loans, (vi) extend the maturity date and (vii) decrease the Letter of Credit fee rate. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, inventories, machinery, equipment, vehicles, certain real estate and the common stock of all of the Company’s subsidiaries. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest based on a London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or prime rate based option.
The Credit Agreement either limits or requires prior approval by the lender of additional borrowings, acquisition of stock of other companies, purchase of treasury shares and payment of cash dividends. Payment of accrued interest is due monthly or at the end of the applicable LIBOR period.
The Credit Agreement as amended provides for the following:
· | The Revolving Commitment is $20,000,000. |
11
· | Borrowings under the Revolving Commitment are limited to (a) 80% of eligible accounts receivable, (b) the lesser of 50% of eligible inventories and $8,500,000 plus (c) 80% of new qualifying Capital Expenditures not to exceed $5,500,000 in any fiscal year (excluding the aggregate amount of any Capital Expenditures financed with the proceeds of a Revolving Line Advance). |
· | The Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is not permitted to be below 1.06 to 1.0 for each trailing twelve month period measured at the end of each Fiscal Quarter. |
· | The maturity date of the credit facility is May 1, 2020. |
· | Interest rate pricing for the revolving credit facility is currently LIBOR plus 2.25% or the prime rate. |
Definitions under the Credit Agreement as amended are as follows:
· | Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is defined as, for any computation period, the ratio of (a) the sum for such period of (i) EBITDA, as defined, minus (ii) the sum of income taxes paid in cash, the amount expended related to the development of the mining property discussed in Note 12 and all unfinanced capital expenditures to (b) the sum for such period of interest expense related to the Credit Agreement. |
· | EBITDA means for any Computation Period (or another time period to the extent expressly provided for in the Credit Agreement) the sum of the following with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries each as determined in accordance with GAAP: (a) Consolidated Net Income, plus (b) federal, state and other income taxes deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, plus (c) Interest Expense deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, plus (d) depreciation, depletion and amortization expense deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, plus (e) non-recurring fees and costs paid by the Company in respect of the following: (i) fees and due diligence costs associated with the Company’s permitted acquisitions; (ii) legal fees and costs associated with the Valco trial preparation; (iii) executive recruitment fees for the Company’s new Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer; and (iv) additional fees and costs associated with the exploration of the Company’s Hitch Rack Ranch facility in Colorado Springs, Colorado to determine the suitability for mining and the pursuit of mining permits, plus (f) any other non-cash charges and any extraordinary charges deducted in the determination of Consolidated Net Income, including any asset impairment charges (including write downs of goodwill), minus (g) any gains from Asset Dispositions, any extraordinary gains and any gains from discontinued operations included in the determination of Consolidated Net Income. |
Outstanding funded revolving debt was $800,000 as of March 30, 2019 compared to $2,200,000 as of December 29, 2018. The highest balance outstanding during the first three months of 2019 and 2018 was $2,200,000 and $6,200,000, respectively. Average outstanding funded debt was $802,000 and $3,792,000 for the first three months of 2019 and 2018, respectively. At March 30, 2019, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $4,745,000. At all times since the inception of the Credit Agreement, the Company has had sufficient qualifying and eligible assets such that the available borrowing capacity exceeded the cash needs of the Company and this situation is expected to continue for the foreseeable future.
The Company believes that its existing cash balance, anticipated cash flow from operations and borrowings available under the Credit Agreement will be sufficient to cover expected cash needs, including planned capital expenditures, for the next twelve months. The Company expects to be in compliance with all debt covenants, as amended, throughout the facility’s remaining term.
11. The Company is involved in litigation matters related to its business. In the Company’s opinion, none of these proceedings, when concluded, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition as the Company has established adequate accruals for matters that are probable and estimable. The Company does not accrue estimated future legal costs related to the defense of these matters but rather expenses legal costs as incurred. Additionally, see Note 8 for discussion of litigation regarding the Pueblo sand and gravel lease.
12. During July 2015, TMC began development of a granite mining property south of Colorado Springs. Prior to beginning the development process, the Company deposited $2,500,000 in an escrow account per agreement with the land owner. This amount was previously included in Other long-term assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
12
The development costs included drilling the property to ascertain its suitability for mining, engineering studies and legal expenses related to the preparation of TMC’s application to obtain the required mining permits from the State of Colorado and El Paso County.
TMC made its initial application for a mining permit from the state of Colorado in 2016. TMC filed its second application to the state in November 2017, which was rejected on April 26, 2018. The Company wrote off all capitalized costs associated with the permit application in the first quarter of 2018, a total of $6,934,000.
As of March 30, 2019 and December 29, 2018 the $2,500,000 escrow balance mentioned above was included in Other current assets as the Company has begun the process to settle the account and recover the funds.
13. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” on December 30, 2018 (the beginning of fiscal 2019), resulting in the recognition of operating right-of-use assets of $5,353,000 and operating lease liabilities of $5,427,000. The Company has entered into lease arrangements for office space, manufacturing facilities, water rights and certain equipment. A number of the leases include one or more options to renew the lease terms, purchase the leased property or terminate the lease. The exercise of these options is at the Company’s discretion and is therefore recognized on the balance sheet when it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise such options.
Substantially all of the Company’s leases are considered operating leases. Finance leases were not material as of March 30, 2019 or for the three months ended March 30, 2019. The following table displays the undiscounted cash flows related to operating leases as of March 30, 2019, along with a reconciliation to the discounted amount recorded on the March 30, 2019 Consolidated Balance Sheet (amounts in thousands):

Short-term lease cost represents the Company’s cost with respect to leases with a duration of 12 months or less and are not reflected on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For the three months ended March 30, 2019 operating lease cost was $529,000 including $203,000 of short-term lease costs.
New leases entered into during the three month period ended March 30, 2019 were not material. At March 30, 2019 the weighted-average remaining lease term and discount rate for operating leases was 5.5 years and 6.1%, respectively.
14. On January 15, 2019, the Company reached an amicable resolution to a business dispute by way of a settlement agreement. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company received $15,000,000. The other party and the Company further agreed to set up a joint escrow account to support certain conditions in the agreement. The Company’s contribution to the escrow account was $200,000. The Settlement Agreement does not contain any admission of liability, wrongdoing, or responsibility by any of the parties.
15. On February 1, 2019, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries sold substantially all of the real property, tangible personal property and executory contracts of TMC’s ready-mix business and the operations of Daniels Sand Company (Daniels) to Aggregate Industries — WCR, Inc. (the Buyer), a Colorado corporation for $27,129,000. The purchase price was paid to the Company on February 1, 2019 less certain amounts to be held in escrow, as provided
13
in the Asset Purchase Agreement among the Company parties and the Buyer (Purchase Agreement), to secure the Company’s obligations to pay its working capital adjustment and indemnification obligations under the Purchase Agreement. The working capital adjustment has not been finalized as of March 30, 2019 and will impact the final gain on the sale. The escrow also retained amounts to be held pending the subdivision of certain real property to be sold to the Buyer at a subsequent date as included in the Purchase Agreement. Combined escrow amounts of $2,049,000 were included in Other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 30, 2019.
The Company retained the aggregates operations and retail building materials business of TMC and all related assets and liabilities. These operations include the Pikeview quarry business located in Colorado Springs, the aggregates mining business located in Pueblo, the sand and gravel mining business located in Fremont County, and the retail building materials business at sites located in Colorado Springs and Pueblo.
In the quarter ended March 30, 2019, the Company recorded a $6,508,000 pre-tax gain on the sale of TMC assets. The operations of the ready-mix and Daniels sand businesses were classified as discontinued operations and assets held for sale for all periods presented. General corporate overhead charges were not allocated to discontinued operations. Revenue, expenses and pre-tax income reclassified to discontinued operations were as follows (amounts in thousands):

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is intended to help investors understand the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and current business environment. The MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2018.
Company Overview
For an overview of the Company’s operations and operating structure, see Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sales of the Company’s HVAC products are seasonal except for fan coils. Sales of furnaces, heaters and evaporative coolers are sensitive to weather conditions particularly during their respective peak selling seasons. Fan coil sales are, to a significant extent, dependent on commercial construction, particularly of hotels. Revenues in the CACS segment are primarily dependent on the level of construction activity along the Southern Front Range in Colorado. Sales for the Door segment are not as seasonal nor are they much affected by weather conditions. Historically, the Company has experienced operating losses during the first quarter except when the weather is mild and demand strong along the Southern Front Range. Operating results typically improve in the second and third quarters reflecting more favorable weather conditions in southern Colorado and the seasonal sales of the Evaporative Cooling segment. Fourth quarter results can vary based on weather conditions in Colorado as well as in the principal markets for the Company’s heating equipment. The first quarter 2019 profit is attributable to the legal settlement and sale of TMC ready-mix and Daniels sand operations’ assets, both non-recurring items.
The Company typically experiences operating cash flow deficits during the first half of the year reflecting operating results, the use of sales dating programs (extended payment terms) related to the Evaporative Cooling segment and payments of the prior year’s accrued incentive bonuses and Company profit-sharing contributions, if any. As a result, the Company’s borrowings against its revolving credit facility tend to peak during the second quarter and then decline over the remainder of the year. The 2019 first quarter favorable cash position is attributable to the legal settlement and sale of TMC ready-mix and Daniels sand operations’ assets, both non-recurring items.
Cash provided by continuing operations was $11,624,000 during the first three months of 2019 compared to $1,615,000 used during the first three months of 2018. The current year quarter included $15,000,000 cash received related to a legal settlement. See Note 14 for further discussion. The prior year first quarter included $878,000 related to deferred development of a mining property which was written off as of March 31, 2018. See Note 12 for further discussion. Cash used by discontinued operations in the first quarter of 2019 was $15,000 compared to $16,000 cash provided in the first quarter of 2018. Both periods reflect operating results combined with changes in working capital items.
During the three months ended March 30, 2019, investing activities provided $24,697 of cash compared to $700,000 of cash used in the prior year’s first quarter. Capital expenditures by continuing and discontinued operations were $63,000 and $172,000, respectively, during the first three months of 2019. Capital expenditures for continuing and discontinued operations were $411,000 and $289,000, respectively, during the first three months of 2018. The reduction in capital expenditures is attributable to the sale of TMC’s ready-mix business which, historically, was more capital intensive. Additionally, the three months ended March 30, 2019 includes $24,927 cash received from the sale of TMC’s ready-mix and Daniels sand operations.
Cash used by financing activities during the first three months of 2019 was $1,479,000 as available cash was used to reduce borrowings on the revolving line of credit. Financing activities during the first three months of 2018 provided $2,200,000 as borrowings were used to partially finance the increase in working capital and the pursuit of
15
mining permits for a property south of Colorado Springs. See Note 12 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report for further discussion.
Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement
As discussed in Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report, the Company maintains a Credit Agreement, which, as amended, provides for a Revolving Commitment of $20,000,000. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, inventories, machinery, equipment, vehicles, certain real estate and the common stock of all of the Company’s subsidiaries. Borrowings under the Revolving Commitment are limited to (a) 80% of eligible accounts receivable, (b) the lesser of 50% of eligible inventories and $8,500,000 plus (c) 80% of new Capital Expenditures not to exceed $5,500,000 in any fiscal year (excluding the aggregate amount of any Capital Expenditures financed with the proceeds of a Revolving Line advance). Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest based on a LIBOR or prime rate based option.
The Credit Agreement either limits or requires prior approval by the lender of additional borrowings, acquisition of stock of other companies, purchase of treasury shares and payment of cash dividends. Payment of accrued interest is due monthly or at the end of the applicable LIBOR period. The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of May 1, 2020.
The Company’s outstanding borrowings against the revolving credit facility were $800,000 at March 30, 2019. At all times since the inception of the Credit Agreement, the Company has had sufficient qualifying and eligible assets such that the entire revolving credit facility was available to the Company. This situation is expected to continue for the foreseeable future.
As of March 30, 2019 the Company was in compliance with all covenants in the Credit Agreement, as amended, and expects to be in compliance with all loan covenants for the remaining term of the Credit Agreement. The Company believes that its existing cash balance, anticipated cash flow from operations and borrowings available under the Credit Agreement will be sufficient to cover expected cash needs, including planned capital expenditures, for the next twelve months. The Company expects to be in compliance with all debt covenants, as amended, throughout the facility’s remaining term.
Results of Continuing Operations - Comparison of Quarter Ended March 30, 2019 to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2018
(In the ensuing discussions of the results of operations the Company defines the term gross profit as the amount determined by deducting cost of sales before depreciation, depletion and amortization from sales. The gross profit ratio is gross profit divided by sales.)
Consolidated sales in the first quarter of 2019 were $22,528,000, a decrease of $882,000, or 3.8%, compared to the first quarter of 2018. All segments reported lower current quarter sales. The primary decrease was in the Heating and Cooling and Evaporative Cooling segments where combined sales were down $789,000 in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter.
The consolidated gross profit ratio in the first quarter of 2019 was 20.8% compared to 21.4% in the same period of 2018. The decrease is mainly due to results in the CACS segment which reported a negative gross profit in the current quarter compared to positive gross profit in the prior year quarter. The Evaporative Cooling segment reported a decrease of 0.8 points in the current period compared to the prior year first quarter. The Door and Heating and Cooling segments reported increases in gross profit of 0.5 and 4.0 points, respectively, in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018. The variances in gross profit are discussed in segment discussion below.
Consolidated selling and administrative expenses were $1,602,000 higher in the first quarter of 2019 than the comparable prior year quarter. As a percentage of consolidated sales, selling and administrative expenses increased
16
to 30.1% in the first quarter of 2019 from 22.2% in the first quarter of 2018. The increase between periods is attributable to investments in personnel and services to promote future growth of the Company.
Consolidated depreciation and amortization charges increased $114,000 in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018.
The first quarter of 2019 included a $15,000,000 gain from a legal settlement recognized in January 2019. See Note 14 for additional discussion. The first quarter of 2018 included the write-off of $6,934,000 of deferred development costs previously capitalized in property, plant and equipment on the consolidated balance sheet or incurred in the first quarter of 2018. See Note 12 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report for further discussion.
The consolidated operating loss in the first quarter of 2019, before the gain from legal settlement discussed above, was $2,625,000. The consolidated operating loss in the first quarter of 2018, before write-off of deferred development related to a mining property discussed above, was $589,000. The decrease in operating performance was reported in all segments. The CACS segment operating loss, excluding non-recurring items, was $637,000 higher in the current quarter than in the first quarter of the prior year. The combined Heating and Cooling and Evaporative cooling segments reported a $796,000 increase in operating loss in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018. Individual segment results are discussed further in the segment section below.
Interest income for the first quarter of 2019 was $149,000 compared to $24,000 for the first quarter of 2018. The increase in interest income is primarily due to interest earned on the higher cash reserves resulting from the proceeds from the legal settlement and the sale of TMC assets.
Interest expense in the first quarter of 2019 was $71,000 compared to $108,000 in the first quarter of 2018. Interest expense includes interest on outstanding funded debt, finance charges on outstanding letters of credit, the fee on the unused revolving credit line and other recurring fees charged by the lending bank. The decrease from the prior year quarter is attributable to lower average borrowings. Average outstanding funded debt in the first quarter of 2019 was $802,000 compared to $3,792,000 for the first quarter of 2018. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding funded debt in the first quarter of 2019, including the fee on the unused line of credit and other recurring bank charges but excluding finance charges on letters of credit, was approximately 15.3% compared to 6.7% in the first quarter of 2018. The increase in the current quarter average interest rate is due to the fixed nature of certain bank charges combined with the lower average borrowings. At the end of the first quarter of 2019 the outstanding funded debt was $800,000 compared to $5,700,000 at the end of the first quarter of 2018.
The Company’s effective income tax rate reflects federal and state statutory income tax rates adjusted for non-deductible expenses, tax credits and other tax items. The estimated effective income tax rate in the first quarter of 2019 was 27.0% compared to a benefit of 25.0% for the first quarter of 2018.
The Company operates four businesses in two industry groups. The businesses are generally seasonal, weather sensitive and subject to cyclical factors. The following addresses various aspects of operating performance focusing on the reportable segments within each of the two industry groups.
Results of Discontinued Operations - Comparison of Quarter Ended March 30, 2019 to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2018
The results of discontinued operations reflect the operations of the ready-mix and Daniels sand businesses of TMC. The Company sold the assets of these business units on February 1, 2019. The 2019 income realized from discontinued operations included a pre-tax loss from operations of $724,000 and a pre-tax gain on the sale of assets of $6,508,000. The pre-tax loss from discontinued operations for the first quarter of 2018 was $670,000.

Concrete, Aggregates and Construction Supplies Segment
The ready-mix concrete and Daniels sand operational assets of TMC were sold on February 1, 2019. The operations of the ready-mix and Daniels sand businesses were classified as discontinued operations and assets held for sale for all periods presented. See Note 15 for further discussion of the transaction. The product offerings of continuing operations of the CACS segment consist of aggregates and construction supplies. Aggregates are produced at multiple locations in or near Colorado Springs and Pueblo, Colorado. Construction supplies encompass numerous products purchased from third party suppliers and sold to the construction trades, particularly concrete sub-contractors. Revenue of the CACS segment decreased in the first quarter of 2019, down 2.9% compared to the first quarter of 2018.
The CACS segment produces and sells sand, crushed limestone and gravel (collectively “aggregates”) from deposits in and around Colorado Springs. Sales volume (tons) of aggregates decreased over 50% in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the comparable 2018 quarter. This is mainly attributable to the Grisenti pit being fully mined and working to complete reclamation with minimal sales. Sales volume at the Pikeview quarry increased in the first quarter of 2019 by 47.7% compared to the prior year period. Improved pricing on rock sales helped decrease the loss from operations at Pikeview compared to the prior year quarter. The improvement at Pikeview, offset by additional reclamation related costs at Grisenti lead to the aggregates operations reporting an operating loss in the first quarter of 2019, $616,000, that was consistent with the first quarter of 2018, $621,000.
Sales of construction supplies increased by $52,000 (4.9%) in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the prior year quarter. The division reported an operating profit in first quarter of 2019 compared to an operating loss in the first quarter 2018 mainly due to lower material and labor costs.
Selling and administrative expenses were $133,000 higher in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. The increase was attributable primarily to increased legal fees. Litigation fees during the first quarter of 2019 were $305,000 compared to $200,000 incurred during the comparable period of 2018. As a percentage of sales
18
selling and administrative expenses increased to 34.5% in the first quarter of 2019 compared to 25.2% in the first quarter of 2018.
The first quarter of 2019 included a $15,000,000 gain from a legal settlement recognized in January 2019. See Note 14 for additional discussion. The first quarter of 2018 included a $6,934,000 write-off of deferred development costs associated with a mining property for which the Company had applied to the state of Colorado for the required mining permits. Subsequent to March 31, 2018 the permits were denied by the state’s Reclamation Mining and Safety Division. See Note 12 for further discussion.
Door Segment
The Door segment sells hollow metal doors, door frames and related hardware, wood doors, lavatory fixtures and electronic access and security systems. Nearly all of the Door segments sales are for commercial and institutional buildings such as schools and healthcare facilities. Approximately 65% to 70% of the sales of the Door segment are related to jobs obtained through a competitive bidding process. Bid prices may be higher or lower than bid prices on similar jobs in the prior year. The Door segment does not track unit sales of the various products through its accounting or management reporting systems. Management focuses on the level of the sales backlog, the trend in sales and the gross profit rate in managing the business.
Door sales in the first quarter of 2019 were $54,000 (1.3%) lower than in the first quarter of the previous year. Bidding prices remain competitive. The gross profit ratio in the first quarter of 2019 was 28.7%, up from 28.2% in the comparable quarter of 2018 as management continues to focus on improving the bidding process.
Sales and administrative expenses were $64,000 higher in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018. As a percentage of sales, these expenses were 18.8% and 17.1% in the first quarters of 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Heating and Cooling Segment
In the first quarter of 2019, approximately 83% of sales in the Heating and Cooling segment consisted of wall furnaces and heaters. Fan coils accounted for 17% of the segment’s sales and other products were less than 1%. In the first quarter of 2018 these shares of total segment sales were 73%, 26% and 1%, respectively. Overall sales in the Heating and Cooling segment in the first quarter of 2019 were flat compared to the same period in 2018.
Sales of furnaces and heaters increased 9.7% in the three months ended March 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018. Unit shipments of furnaces and heaters were 3.9% higher in the first quarter of 2018. Average sales prices for furnaces and heaters were about 5.7% higher compared to a year ago attributable to a price increase implemented in mid-2018. The gross profit from furnaces and heaters increased in the first quarter of 2019 attributable to the higher prices and increased production levels.
Sales of fan coils during the first quarter of 2019 declined 36.8% from the comparable 2018 quarter. The fan coil backlog at March 30, 2019 was $3,011,000 compared to $3,173,000 at March 31, 2018. Typically, approximately 90% of the sales of fan coils are custom-made systems for hotels and other commercial buildings. Fan coil jobs are obtained through a competitive bidding process. Since every bid job is a unique configuration of materials and parts, the Company does not track units of sales or production as such unit volume data would not be useful in managing the business. Management focuses on the contribution margin by job, the current level of sales and the sales backlog in managing the fan coil business. Contribution margin is measured by deducting variable manufacturing costs and variable selling expenses from sales for a particular product line and is used as an internal measure of profitability for a product or first product line. The fan coil contribution margin percentage in the first quarter of 2019 was 25.4%, down from 29.6% in the quarter of 2018. Reduced production levels contributed to the lower contribution margin in the current quarter. Both quarters’ margins were considered to be within acceptable performance levels.
The Heating and Cooling segment’s gross profit ratio for the first quarter of 2019 was 27.8% compared to 23.8% in the first quarter of 2018. The current quarter gross profit ratio was aided by the sales price increase implemented in mid-2018 as well as a new rebate program with Southern California Gas on the sale of certain furnaces. There was no similar program in the first quarter of 2018.
Selling and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2019 were $918,000 higher than the first quarter of the previous year primarily due to investments in personnel to promote future growth. As a percentage of sales, selling and administrative expenses were 27.0% in the first quarter of 2019 and 17.1% in the first quarter of 2018.
The Heating and Cooling segment reported an operating loss of $216,000 for the first quarter of 2019 compared to operating profit of $571,000 for the first quarter of 2018. The decrease is primarily due to lower overall sales combined with increased selling and administrative expenses.
Evaporative Cooling Segment
Sales of evaporative coolers decreased $140,000 (2.1%) in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018. Unit sales of evaporative coolers in the first quarter of 2019 declined 12.0% compared to the first quarter of 2018. Average selling prices, including parts sales, were up 11.1% between the first quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2018 primarily due to a price increase implemented in the second quarter of 2018. The gross profit ratio in the first quarter of 2019 was 14.7% compared to 15.5% in the first quarter of 2018. The decline in gross profit ratio is attributable mainly to reduced production levels.
Selling and administrative expenses were $63,000 (5.4%) lower in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018. As a percentage of sales, selling and administrative expenses decreased to 17.2% in the current quarter of 2019 from 17.8% in the prior year first quarter.
The Evaporative Cooler segment reported an operating loss of $265,000 for the first quarter of 2019 compared to an operating loss of $256,000 for the first quarter of 2018.
20
Both businesses in the HVAC group are sensitive to changes in prices for a number of different raw materials, commodities and purchased parts. Prices of steel and copper in particular can have a significant effect on the results of operations of this group. Neither company is currently a party to any hedging arrangements with regard to steel or copper.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of March 30, 2019 and December 29, 2018 and affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Information with respect to the Company’s critical accounting policies which the Company believes could have the most significant effect on the Company’s reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management, is contained in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2018.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
See Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report for a discussion of recently issued accounting standards.
MATERIAL CHANGES TO CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
There were no material changes to contractual obligations that occurred during the quarter ended March 30, 2019.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of the Company’s management as well as on assumptions made by and information available to the Company at the time such statements were made. When used in this Quarterly Report, words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “contemplates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,” “projects,” “will,” “continue” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
