Interim reporting

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ocean Bio-Chem, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries.

The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Use of estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

4. LEASES

The Company has one operating lease and three finance leases.

Under the operating lease, the Company leases its executive offices and warehouse facilities in Fort Lauderdale, Florida from an entity controlled by Peter G. Dornau, the Company’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. The lease, as extended, expires on December 31, 2023. The lease requires an annual minimum base rent of $94,800 and provides for a maximum annual 2% increase in subsequent years, although the entity has not raised the minimum base rent since the Company entered into a previous lease agreement in 1998. Additionally, the leasing entity is entitled to reimbursement of all taxes, assessments, and any other expenses that arise from ownership. Each of the parties to the lease has agreed to review the terms of the lease every three years at the request of the other party. Operating lease expense was approximately $24,000 and $25,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

6. REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT

On August 31, 2018, the Company and Regions Bank entered into a Business Loan Agreement (the “Business Loan Agreement”), under which the Company was provided a revolving line of credit. Under the Business Loan Agreement, the Company may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $6,000,000 or (ii) a borrowing base equal to 85% of Eligible Accounts (as defined in the Business Loan Agreement) plus 50% of Eligible Inventory (as defined in the Business Loan Agreement). Interest on amounts borrowed under the revolving line of credit is payable monthly at the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.35% per annum, computed on a 365/360 basis. Eligible Accounts do not include, among other things, accounts receivable from affiliated entities.

9 

Outstanding amounts under the revolving line of credit are payable on demand. If no demand is made, the Company may repay and reborrow funds from time to time until expiration of the revolving line of credit on August 31, 2021, at which time all outstanding principal and interest will be due and payable. The Company’s obligations under the revolving line of credit are principally secured by the Company’s accounts receivable and inventory. The Business Loan Agreement includes financial covenants requiring that the Company maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio (generally, the ratio of (A) EBITDA for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters minus the sum of the Company’s distributions to its shareholders, taxes paid and unfunded capital expenditures during such period to (B) prior year current maturities of Company long term debt plus interest expense incurred over the most recently completed four fiscal quarters) of 1.20 to 1, tested quarterly, and a maximum “debt to cap” ratio (generally, funded debt divided by the sum of net worth and funded debt) of 0.75 to 1, as of the end of each fiscal quarter. For purposes of computing the fixed charge coverage ratio, “EBITDA” generally is defined as net income before taxes and depreciation expense plus amortization expense, plus interest expense, plus non-recurring and/or non-cash losses and expenses, minus non-recurring and/or non-cash gains and income; “unfunded capital expenditures” generally is defined as capital expenditures made from Company funds other than funds borrowed through term debt incurred to finance such capital expenditures; “long term debt” generally is defined as “debt instruments with a maturity principal due date of one year or more in length,” including, among other listed contractual debt instruments, “revolving lines of credit” and “capital leases obligations,” and “prior year current maturities of long term debt” generally is defined as the principal portions of long-term debt maturing within one year as listed at the last quarter end of the prior completed four fiscal quarters. At March 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants. The revolving line of credit is subject to several events of default, including a decline in the majority shareholder’s ownership below 50% of all outstanding shares.

There has been no negative impact in the availability of funds to the Company as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no borrowings under the revolving line of credit provided by the Business Loan Agreement.

7. LONG TERM DEBT

Industrial Development Bond Financing

On September 26, 2017, Kinpak indirectly obtained a $4,500,000 loan from Regions Capital Advantage, Inc. (the “Lender”). The proceeds of the loan are being used principally to pay or reimburse costs relating to the Expansion Project.

The loan was funded by the Lender’s purchase of a $4,500,000 industrial development bond (the “Bond”) issued by The Industrial Development Board of the City of Montgomery, Alabama (the “IDB”). The Bond is a limited obligation of the IDB and is payable solely out of revenues and receipts derived from the leasing or sale of Kinpak’s facilities. In this regard, Kinpak is obligated to fund the IDB’s payment obligations by providing rental payments under a lease between the IDB and Kinpak (the “Lease”), under which Kinpak leases its facilities from the IDB. Kinpak inherited the lease structure when it first acquired its facilities from its predecessor-in-interest in 1996. The Lease provides that prior to the maturity date of the Bond, Kinpak may repurchase the facilities for $1,000 if the Bond has been redeemed or fully paid.

The Bond bears interest at the rate of 3.07% per annum, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed (subject to increase to 6.07% per annum upon the occurrence of an event of default), and is payable in 118 monthly installments of $31,324 beginning on November 1, 2017 and ending on August 1, 2027, with a final principal and interest payment to be made on September 1, 2027 in the amount of $1,799,201. The Bond provides that the interest rate will be subject to adjustment if it is determined by the United States Treasury Department, the Internal Revenue Service, or a similar government entity that the interest on the Bond is includable in the gross income of the Lender for federal income tax purposes.

Under the Lease, Kinpak is required to make rental payments for the account of the IDB to the Lender in such amounts and at such times as are necessary to enable the payment of all principal and interest due on the Bond and other charges, if any, payable in respect of the Bond. The Lease also provides that Kinpak may redeem the Bond, in whole or in part, by prepaying its rental payment obligations in an amount sufficient to effect the redemption. In addition, the Lease contains provisions relating to the Expansion Project, including limitations on utilization of Bond proceeds, deposit of unused proceeds into a custodial account (as described below) and investment of monies held in the custodial account.

Payment of amounts due and payable under the Bond and other related agreements are guaranteed by the Company and its other consolidated subsidiaries. In connection with the guarantee agreement under which the Company provided its guarantee, the Company is subject to certain covenants, including financial covenants requiring that the Company maintain (i) a minimum fixed charge ratio (generally, the ratio of (A) EBITDA minus the sum of Company’s distributions to its shareholders, taxes paid and unfunded capital expenditures to (B) current maturities of Company long-term debt plus interest expense) of 1.20 to 1, tested quarterly, and (ii) a ratio of funded debt (as defined in the guaranty agreement) divided by the sum of net worth and funded debt of 0.75 to 1, tested quarterly. For purposes of computing the fixed charge coverage ratio, “EBITDA” generally is defined as net income before taxes and depreciation expense plus amortization expense, plus interest expense, plus non-recurring and/or non-cash losses and expenses, minus non-recurring and/or non-cash gains and income; “unfunded capital expenditures” generally is defined as capital expenditures made from Company funds other than funds borrowed through term debt incurred to finance such capital expenditures. At March 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.

10 

Through March 31, 2021, of the $4,500,000 proceeds of the Bond sale, there are unused proceeds of approximately $318,000 remaining that are held in a custodial account and may be drawn by Kinpak from time to time to fund additional expenditures related to the Expansion Project. Due to restrictions under, among other things, the Internal Revenue Code and the Lease on Kinpak’s utilization of the funds held in the custodial account, such funds are classified as restricted cash on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company intends to utilize the remaining proceeds to purchase machinery and equipment to expand production capacity.

The Company incurred debt financing costs of $196,095 in connection with the financing. These costs are shown as a reduction of the debt balance and are being amortized over the life of the Bond.

In connection with the Company’s agreement to purchase assets of Snappy Marine, Inc. (“Snappy Marine”) on July 13, 2018, the Company provided to Snappy Marine a promissory note in the amount of $1,000,000, including interest (of the $1,000,000 amount of the promissory note, $930,528 was recorded as principal, and the remaining $69,472, representing an imputed interest rate of 2.87% per annum, is being recorded as interest expense over the term of the note).

The Company recorded a lease liability which is included in long term debt and a corresponding right to use asset that is included in property, plant and equipment of $96,039 based on a discount rate of 1.53%.

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company was obligated under lease agreements covering office equipment utilized in the Company’s operations (inclusive of the lease referenced in the preceding paragraph).

The office equipment leases are classified as finance leases. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company paid $5,687 ($5,254 principal and $433 interest) and $5,925 ($5,752 principal and $173 interest), respectively, under the lease agreements.

9. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflect additional dilution from potential common stock issuances upon the exercise of outstanding stock options. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share, as well as a reconciliation of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding to the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a diluted basis.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2021		2020
Earnings per common share –Basic
Net income	$	1,904,269	$	626,881
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding		9,481,799		9,444,834
Earnings per common share – Basic	$	0.20	$	0.07
Earnings per common share – Diluted
Net income	$	1,904,269	$	626,881
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding		9,481,799		9,444,834
Dilutive effect of outstanding stock options		-		7,265
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding – Diluted		9,481,799		9,452,099
Earnings per common share – Diluted	$	0.20	$	0.07

The Company had no stock options outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 that were antidilutive and therefore not included in the diluted earnings per common share calculation.

Kinpak has been engaged since 2017 in a project involving a major expansion of its manufacturing, warehouse and distribution facilities in Montgomery, Alabama, as well as the purchase and installation of associated machinery and equipment (the “Expansion Project”). Kinpak has completed the construction of, and placed into service, an approximately 85,000 square foot addition to the facilities and an expansion of a tank farm to accommodate an additional 500,000 gallons of tank capacity. The final phase of the Expansion Project entails the evaluation, purchase and installation of additional equipment.

Results of Operations:

Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020

The following table provides a summary of our financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:

	For The Three Months Ended March 31,
							Percent			Percentage of Net Sales
	2021			2020			Change			2021			2020

Net income	$	1,904,269		$	626,881			203.8	%		14.5	%		8.0	%

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by approximately $5,312,000, or 67.9%, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase in net sales was principally a result of increased sales of Star brite^® branded marine products and private label marine products. We believe the higher net sales is attributable to an overall growth in recreational boating; we can provide no assurance as to whether this interest will grow or lessen in the future.

Cost of goods sold increased by approximately $3,073,000, or 65.7%, during the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase in cost of goods sold was primarily a result of higher sales volume.

Gross profit increased by approximately $2,238,000, or 71.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. Gross profit primarily increased due to our higher sales volume. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit was approximately 41.0% and 40.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Advertising and promotion expenses increased by approximately $204,000, or 27.7%, during the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase in advertising and promotion expenses was principally a result of increased internet advertising. As a percentage of net sales, advertising and promotion expenses decreased to 7.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from 9.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2020.  

Selling and administrative expenses increased by approximately $259,000, or 15.1%, during the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase in selling and administrative expenses was primarily a result of the higher sales commissions and an increase to our trade accounts receivable allowance for bad debts, both of which were caused by higher net sales. As a percentage of net sales, selling and administrative expenses decreased to 15.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from 21.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2020. 

Interest (expense), net for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by approximately $21,000 or 134.3%, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company had interest income from a money market mutual fund account which the Company did not have in the three months ended March 31, 2021. 

17 

Gain on insurance settlement was approximately $126,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company received a check for approximately $412,000 from our insurance company to cover losses from a chemical incident at our Kinpak facility that took place in December 2019.

Provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $525,000, or 21.6% of our income before taxes. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 the provision was approximately $175,000, or 21.8% of our income before taxes.  

Liquidity and capital resources:

Our cash balance was approximately $11,162,000 at March 31, 2021 and approximately $11,124,000 at December 31, 2020. In addition, we had restricted cash of approximately $318,000 at March 31, 2021 and $477,000 at December 31, 2020. The restricted cash constitutes amounts held in a custodial account that are to be used from time to time to fund additional capital expenditures in connection with the Expansion Project. See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information.

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2021			2020
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	1,207,802		$	287,814
Net cash used in investing activities		(915,899	)		(129,447	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(414,546	)		(126,673	)
Effect of exchange rate fluctuations on cash		976			(1,845	)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and restricted cash	$	(121,667	)	$	29,849

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by approximately $920,000, or 319.6%, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. In the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company had higher net income, higher noncash adjustments to income, and most working capital changes provided more or used less cash, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increases to cash provided by operating activities were partially offset by the change in trade accounts receivable during the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Net trade accounts receivable at March 31, 2021 aggregated approximately $10,349,000, an increase of approximately $2,022,000, or 24.3%, as compared to approximately $8,327,000 in net trade accounts receivable outstanding at December 31, 2020.  The increase was principally a result of our net sales during the first quarter of 2021. Receivables due from affiliated companies aggregated approximately $1,137,000 at March 31, 2021, a decrease of approximately $359,000, or 24.0%, from receivables due from affiliated companies of approximately $1,496,000 at December 31, 2020. The decrease was a result of payments received during the first quarter of 2021.

Inventories, net were approximately $14,235,000 and $13,176,000 at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, representing an increase of approximately $1,059,000, or 8.0%, during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was necessary in order to meet the anticipated demands of the second quarter of 2021.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by approximately $786,000, or 607.5%, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase in cash used in investing activities was attributable to the Company receiving insurance proceeds (see Results of Operations) of $411,657 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and the Company investing approximately $375,000 more in property, plant, and equipment in the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020.

18 

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by approximately $288,000, or 227.3%, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase in cash used in financing activities was principally a result of payments of dividends to common shareholders of approximately $284,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2021. There were no payments of dividends to common shareholders in the three months ended March 31, 2020.

See Notes 6 and 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for information concerning our principal credit facilities, consisting of Kinpak’s obligations relating to an industrial development bond financing, the payment of which we have guaranteed, and a revolving line of credit.

The loan agreement pertaining to our revolving credit facility, as amended, has a stated term that expires on August 31, 2021, although, as was the case with earlier revolving lines of credit provided to us in recent years, amounts outstanding are payable on demand. Nevertheless, the loan agreement pertaining to our revolving line of credit, as amended, contains various covenants, including financial covenants that are described in Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.  At March 31, 2021, we were in compliance with these financial covenants. The revolving credit facility is subject to several events of default, including a decline of the majority shareholder’s ownership below 50% of our outstanding shares.

Our guarantee of Kinpak’s obligations related to the industrial development bond financing are subject to various covenants, including financial covenants that are described in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

At March 31, 2021, we had an outstanding balance of $466,666 under the promissory note (including $450,863 recorded as principal and $15,803 to be recorded as interest expense over the remaining term of the note).

In connection with our agreement to purchase assets of Check Corporation (dba Damp Check^TM), we agreed to pay Check Corporation $100,000 in equal installments of approximately $4,348 over a 23-month period that commenced on January 15, 2020 with a final payment due and payable on November 15, 2021. We recorded $97,012 as principal, and the remaining $2,988, representing an imputed interest rate of 3.15% per annum, will be recorded as interest expense over the 23 months).  At March 31, 2021, we had an outstanding balance of $ 34,783 (including $34,375 recorded as principal and $408 to be recorded as interest expense over the remaining term of the agreement).

We also obtained financing through leases for office equipment, totaling approximately $95,000 and $100,000 at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Some of our assets and liabilities are denominated in Canadian dollars and are subject to currency exchange rate fluctuations. We do not engage in currency hedging and address currency risk as a pricing issue. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded $596 in foreign currency translation adjustments (decreasing shareholders’ equity by $596).

During the past few years, we have introduced a number of new products.  At times, new product introductions have required us to increase our overall inventory and have resulted in lower inventory turnover rates.  The effects of reduced inventory turnover have not been material to our overall operations.  We believe that all required capital to maintain such increases will continue to be provided by operations and our current revolving line of credit or a renewal or replacement of the facility.

Many of the raw materials that we use in the manufacturing process are petroleum or chemical based and commodity chemicals that are subject to fluctuating prices. The nature of our business does not enable us to pass through the price increases to our national retailer customers and to our distributors as promptly as we experience increases in raw material costs. This may, at times, adversely affect our margins.

We believe that funds provided through operations and our revolving line of credit will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements over at least the next twelve months.

 Not applicable

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) at the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Exchange Act are (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding the disclosure.

Change in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting:

No change in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flow, and stock price of the Company can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including but not limited to those described in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “2020 Form 10-K”) under the heading “Risk Factors,” any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause the Company’s actual financial condition, operating results and cash flow to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, financial condition operating results and cash flow. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results, cash flow, and stock price. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s risk factors since the 2020 Form 10-K.

We could be adversely affected by shortages of raw materials due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which shortages could lead to higher costs and or delayed production, and a negative impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and stock price.

If our vendors, or any raw material vendors on which our vendors rely, suffer prolonged manufacturing or transportation disruptions due to public health conditions, such as the recent coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, or other unforeseen events, our ability to source product could be adversely impacted which would adversely affect our business or results of operations. Events that adversely affect our suppliers of raw materials could impair our ability to obtain raw material inventory in the quantities that we desire. Such events include problems with our suppliers’ businesses, finances, labor relations, ability to import raw materials, product quality issues, costs, production, insurance and reputation, as well as disease outbreaks or pandemics (such as the recent coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic), acts of war, terrorism, natural disasters, fires, earthquakes, flooding or other catastrophic occurrences. We may also be able to obtain raw materials at higher costs than we have historically experienced and may not be able to pass the higher costs along to our customers in a timely manner.
