Results for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 1993 were also restated for the current year effect of the accounting change for FASB Statement No. 106. 7 PAGE 8 ARCHER DANIELS MIDLAND COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION OPERATIONS Net sales and other operating income increased 23 percent for the quarter and 14 percent for the nine months compared to a year ago due primarily to higher average selling prices of most processed products and to a lesser extent volume increases, including sales of recently acquired companies. Gross profits increased to $286 million from $265 million for the quarter reflecting gross profits of recently acquired companies and increased gross profits of oilseed processing operations which experienced better market conditions resulting in favorable processing margins. For the nine months, gross profits decreased from $850 million to $831 million due principally to the negative effect on operations of the widespread Midwest flooding and to the effect of commodity price changes on LIFO inventory valuations. These decreases were partially offset by increased gross profits from oilseed processing operations and recently acquired companies. The effect of commodity price changes on LIFO inventory valuations decreased gross profit $5 million in the quarter and $46 million in the nine months compared to increased gross profit of $5 million and $4 million for the comparable periods of a year ago. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 13 percent to $93 million for the quarter and increased 9 percent to $267 million for the nine months compared to a year ago primarily reflecting costs of recently acquired companies and general cost increases. The decrease in other income for the quarter and nine months resulted primarily from increased interest expense due to higher levels of long-term debt borrowings. For the quarter, this decrease was partially offset by increased gains on marketable securities transactions. Income taxes for the quarter increased due to higher pretax earnings and the increase in the United States federal corporate income tax rate to 35 percent. For the nine months, income taxes decreased due to lower pretax earnings. This decrease was partially offset by the aforementioned income tax rate increase which also resulted in increased income tax reserves and a non- recurring income tax charge of $14 million. The effects of the change in the federal corporate income tax rate increased the Company's effective income tax rate to 34 percent for the quarter and 37 percent for the nine months compared to a rate of 33 percent for the comparable periods of a year ago. Results for fiscal 1993 have been restated for the cumulative effect of the adoption of FASB Statements No. 106 and No. 109 resulting in a net credit of $33 million for the nine months ended March 31, 1993. Results for the first three quarters of fiscal 1993 have also been restated, net of tax, for the current year effect of the accounting change for FASB Statement No. 106. 8 PAGE 9 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During the nine months ended March 31, 1994, the Company's cash and marketable securities net of short-term debt decreased $726 million to $2.0 billion, working capital decreased $360 million to $2.6 billion and shareholders' equity decreased $23 million to $4.9 billion. These decreases principally reflect investments in property, plant and equipment expansions, business acquisitions, and purchases of the Company's common stock. The Company's ratio of long-term liabilities to total capital at March 31, 1994 was approximately 27 percent. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
