FINANCIAL NOTES
(Unaudited)
(a) The condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 1998, the condensed statements
of income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1998 and
1997, and the condensed statements of cash flows for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997 are unaudited. Because of the nature of the
Company's operations, the results for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of results to be expected for the year, but in the opinion of
management, all material adjustments necessary for the fair presentation
of interim period results have been included in the interim financial
statements.
(b) Estimated effective annual income tax rates differ from statutory rates,
primarily due to the dividends-received deduction and various tax credits.
(c) The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
128, "Earnings Per Share," and SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income" during the year ended December 31, 1997.
In accordance with SFAS No. 128, the Company renamed its Primary Earnings
per Share to Basic Earnings Per Share (Basic EPS) and disclosed its
Diluted EPS. Due to the immaterial impact of the Company's stock options,
Basic EPS and Diluted EPS round to the same amount.
In accordance with SFAS No. 130, the Company must disclose total non-owner
changes in shareholders' equity. For the Company, this consists of net
income plus unrealized holding gains on securities. On this basis,
comprehensive income for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
totaled $15 million and $23 million, respectively. Comprehensive income
for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, totaled $28 million and
$40 million, respectively.
(d) Results for the six months ended June 30, 1997 for ocean transportation
include $20 million, pre-tax, from the settlement of a lawsuit that
involved insurance claims for earthquake damage to port facilities in
1989.
(e) Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year's
presentation.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- ---------------------------------------------
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ------------------------------------------------
SECOND QUARTER EVENTS:
OPERATING RESULTS: Net income for the second quarter of 1998 was $18,970,000,
or $0.42 per share. Net income for the comparable period of 1997 was
$18,279,000, or $0.40 per share. Net income for the first half of 1998 was
$32,744,000, or $0.73 per share, versus $39,504,000, or $0.87 per share, in the
comparable 1997 period. Net income in the first half of 1997 included
$12,478,000, or $0.28 per share, resulting from the favorable settlement of
longstanding insurance litigation. Excluding the insurance settlement, net
income for the first half of 1998 increased 21 percent.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
The Company's principal liquid resources, which consist of cash and cash
equivalents, receivables, sugar and coffee inventories and unused lines of
credit, less accrued deposits to the Capital Construction Fund (CCF), totaled
$463,646,000 at June 30, 1998, a decrease of $20,030,000 from December 31,
1997. The decrease was due primarily to fewer amounts available under lines
of credit and to lower cash and receivable balances, partially offset by
increased sugar and coffee inventories. There was no change in accrued
deposits to the CCF. Amounts available under lines of credit decreased
$27,999,000, primarily due to increased borrowing for the purchase of raw sugar
and container equipment. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $5,123,000,
due primarily to normal expenditures for container equipment, debt repayments
and operating cash requirements. Receivables decreased $4,806,000, primarily
the result of a decrease at Matson Navigation Company, Inc. ("Matson"). Sugar
and coffee inventories increased $17,898,000, due principally to higher levels
of refined sugar inventory and higher sugar production costs carried in
inventory in the first half of 1998.
Working capital was $70,171,000 at June 30, 1998, a decrease of
$44,635,000 from the amount at the end of 1997. This decrease was due
primarily to an increase in short-term debt and commercial paper borrowings,
partially offset by the increase in inventories.
RESULTS OF SEGMENT OPERATIONS -
SECOND QUARTER 1998 COMPARED WITH THE SECOND QUARTER 1997
OCEAN TRANSPORTATION revenue of $182,124,000 for the second quarter of 1998 was
four-percent higher than the 1997 second quarter revenue. Operating profit of
$16,787,000 for the second quarter of 1998 declined, however, by 26 percent.
This decrease was primarily the result of lower cargo volume, lower average
revenue per container, and less interest income. The decline in cargo volume
resulted primarily from continued contraction in the Hawaii cargo market and
the introduction of a new barge competitor serving Hawaii during the strong
summer household-goods cycle. These factors more than offset the benefits of
a revised operating alliance with American President Lines, Ltd. Matson's
second-quarter 1998 Hawaii service container volume was seven-percent lower
than in the 1997 second quarter and automobile volume was one-percent lower.
PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT - LEASING revenue of $9,198,000 for the
second quarter of 1998 was four-percent lower than the second quarter 1997
revenue, and operating profit of $5,589,000 was 13-percent lower than in the
comparable 1997 period. The decrease was due primarily to the timing of sales
and purchases of property and, to a lesser extent, to lower occupancy levels
and lease rates. In June 1998, the Company acquired three income properties
on the U.S. Mainland, two in San Antonio, Texas and one in Sacramento,
California, using tax-deferred funds from previous property sales. The total
purchase price for the three properties was $36,199,000.
PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT - SALES revenue for the second quarter of
1998 was $60,792,000, compared with $14,480,000 in sales recorded in the second
quarter of 1997. In the second quarter of 1998, operating profit from property
sales was $13,994,000. This was $10,914,000 higher than $3,080,000 in the
second quarter of 1997. Results in the second quarter of 1998 included the
sales of Ridgeview Court, a 246,000 square-foot R&D and office complex in
Cupertino, California and the Company's remaining interest in a 14-acre parcel
in Maui Business Park (MBP). These two sales, combined, contributed
$13,989,000 to operating profit. Other 1998 second-quarter sales included one
business parcel and five residential properties. Sales in the second quarter
of 1997 included an industrial warehouse, three developed business lots and
sixteen residential properties on Maui. Three of the second quarter 1998 and
one of the second quarter 1997 sales were completed on a tax-deferred basis.
The mix of property sales in any year can be diverse. Sales can include
property sold under threat of condemnation, developed residential real estate,
commercial properties, developable subdivision lots and undeveloped land. The
sale of undeveloped land generally provides a greater contribution margin than
does the sale of developed and commercial property, due to the low historical-
cost basis of the Company's Hawaii land, which averages approximately $150 per
acre. Consequently, property sales revenue trends and the amount of real
estate held for sale on the condensed balance sheets are not necessarily
indicative of future profitability for this segment.
FOOD PRODUCTS revenue of $112,994,000 for the second quarter of 1998 was four-
percent lower than the revenue reported for the comparable period of 1997.
Second quarter 1998 operating profit of $3,047,000 decreased significantly from
the $6,949,000 operating profit in the same period in 1997. This decrease was
due primarily to lower refined sugar prices and margins at C&H, offset, in
part, by greater volume and lower costs of raw sugar production. In June 1998,
five-year labor agreements were reached with the two unions at the Company's
sugar refinery in Crockett, California.
RESULTS OF SEGMENT OPERATIONS -
FIRST SIX MONTHS 1998 COMPARED WITH THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 1997
OCEAN TRANSPORTATION revenue of $360,924,000 for the first half of 1998 rose
just one percent from the results in the first half of 1997. First half 1998
operating profit of $34,157,000 decreased $22,700,000, or 40 percent, from
$56,857,000 in the first half of 1997. The primary reason for the decrease was
the favorable insurance settlement included in the first-half 1997 results.
Excluding that factor ($19,965,000, pretax), 1998 first half operating profit
was $2,735,000 lower than in 1997. For the first half of 1998, Matson's Hawaii
service container volume was two-percent lower than in the 1997 first half and
its automobile volume was one-percent lower.
PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT - LEASING revenue of $18,433,000 for the
first half of 1998 was two-percent lower than the results in the comparable
1997 period. First half 1998 operating profit of $11,488,000 was nine-percent
lower than in the first half of 1997. This decrease was due to the same
reasons cited for the second quarter decline. Year-to-date 1998 occupancy
levels for Mainland properties averaged 93 percent, versus 98 percent in the
first half of 1997. Year-to-date 1998 occupancy levels for Hawaii properties
averaged 66 percent, versus 78 percent in the comparable period of 1997. That
decrease was primarily due to a temporary vacancy related to a former Woolworth
tenancy and properties acquired recently at favorable prices that have
relatively low occupancy rates. A portion of the former Woolworth space is
being redeveloped into a multi-screen theater complex.
PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT - SALES revenue of $68,573,000 in the first
half of 1998 compared with $18,591,000 recorded in the first half of 1997.
Operating profit of $18,636,000 from property sales in the first half of 1998
was $13,976,000 higher than $4,660,000 in the first half of 1997. The two
large sales in the 1998 second quarter were the primary reason for the
increase. Among the first half 1998 sales were the previously mentioned sales
of the R&D and office complex and the 14-acre parcel in MBP, plus five other
business parcels and 14 residential properties. Sales in the comparable period
of 1997 included a one-acre developed lot and an industrial warehouse, plus 27
residential and three developed business lot sales. Seven of the 1998 and two
of the 1997 sales were completed on a tax-deferred basis.
FOOD PRODUCTS revenue of $207,868,000 for the first half of 1998 was five-
percent lower than the revenue reported for the comparable period of 1997.
Operating profit of $6,045,000 for the first half of 1998 compared with
$9,392,000 during the comparable period of 1997. This decrease was due to the
same reasons cited for the second quarter decline.
OTHER
INSURANCE LITIGATION: Matson received a favorable cash settlement of
$33,650,000 on February 13, 1997 for a contested insurance claim in connection
with repairing port facilities damaged by a 1989 earthquake. As noted
previously, this settlement resulted in additional net income of $12,478,000 in
the first half of 1997.
LEGISLATION: In 1997, the Secretary of Agriculture established, under the
Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act and in accordance with the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule, the aggregate quantity of sugars and syrups that
can be imported into the United States. The maximum import quantity for fiscal
year 1998 was set at 1,800,000 metric tons raw value (mtrv), with an initial
release of 1,200,000 mtrv and the remaining 600,000 mtrv to be released in
200,000 mtrv increments in January, March, and May, if, in those months, the
stocks-to-use ratio, as published in the World Agricultural Supply and Demand
Estimate (WASDE), is not greater than 15.5 percent. In January 1998, the WASDE
stocks-to-use ratio was 15.7 percent and, as a result, the first 1998 increment
was cancelled. In March and May 1998, the WASDE stocks-to-use ratio was 14.5
and 14.2 percent, respectively. As a result, the second and third 1998
increments were released. The maximum import quantity for fiscal year 1998 is
currently 1,600,000 mtrv.
TAX-DEFERRED REAL ESTATE EXCHANGES: In the first half of 1998, the Company
sold seven parcels of land for $64,597,000 (net reinvestment proceeds). The
proceeds from these sales are reflected in the Condensed Statements of Cash
Flows under the caption "Other Non-Cash Information." During the first half of
1998, the Company reinvested proceeds of $36,199,000 on a tax-deferred basis
from sales completed in 1998 and 1997.
SHARE REPURCHASES: During the first half of 1998, the Company repurchased
85,000 shares of its common stock for an aggregate of $2,250,000 (average of
$26.47 per share).
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS: As with most industrial and land-development companies
of its size, the Company's operations have certain risks, which could result in
expenditures for environmental remediation. The Company believes that it is in
compliance, in all material respects, with applicable environmental laws and
regulations, and works proactively to identify potential environmental
concerns. Management believes that appropriate liabilities have been accrued
for environmental matters.
SUBSEQUENT EVENT: On August 10, 1998, the Company announced that it has
entered into a definitive agreement providing for the recapitalization of
California and Hawaiian Sugar Company, Inc. (C&H) in partnership with an
investor group including Citicorp Venture Capital, Ltd. In the transaction,
A&B will receive approximately $55 million in cash, after the repayment of
certain C&H indebtedness, $25 million in senior preferred stock, and will
retain a 40 percent common stock interest in the recapitalized C&H. The trans-
action, expected to close within ninety days, is not expected to have a
material impact on the Company's income.
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS: No fundamental change in Hawaii economic conditions is
visible at midyear 1998. The outlook remains unchanged, for zero to one-
percent real growth this year. The State's prominent visitor industry
continues to benefit from increasing westbound arrivals, but this improvement
is being offset by declines in eastbound visitors, due to continuing economic
uncertainty in Asia. These trends are affecting various visitor destinations
in the State in different ways. Oahu tourism is down because of its dependence
on eastbound visitors; recent new eastbound air service to the Kona area (on
the west side of the Island of Hawaii), however, has steadily boosted arrivals
there; and other neighbor island areas are benefiting from the westbound trend.
Local real estate industry analysts have noted an increase in condominium sales
on the neighbor islands, with Mainland visitors from West Coast areas acquiring
vacation properties.
YEAR 2000: Beginning in 1996, the Company initiated an evaluation of its
computer systems and applications to prepare for the Year 2000. Following this
evaluation, implementation plans for all business segments were prepared and
are currently being executed. Areas which have the greatest risk of impacting
operations are being corrected first; however, all work related to primary
systems and applications is expected to be completed substantially by the end
of 1998. Many of the primary systems are already Year 2000 compliant. The
plans consist of upgrading, modifying or replacing various systems for
approximately $6,000,000 to $8,000,000. The costs incurred in connection with
the Year 2000 compliance are being treated as an operating expense, unless a
system is being replaced for operating reasons as well as Year 2000 compliance,
in which case costs are being capitalized. The Company believes that its
systems and applications necessary to operate and manage its businesses will be
replaced, modified or upgraded in advance of the Year 2000 and that the related
costs will not have a material impact on the operations, cash flows, financial
condition or segment results of future periods.
