Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures 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 may vary from those estimates. 5. Investments in and Receivables from Unconsolidated Affiliates. The Company accounts for its investments in three unconsolidated affiliates using the equity method. The Company's share of earnings and management fees from these affiliates was $2,168,000 and $1,771,000 respectively for the 13 weeks ended June 28, 1997 and June 29, 1996. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation June 28, 1997 Financial Condition The Company received proceeds from its final insurance settlement for the Pine Mountain Valley fire during the quarter. This cash was used to reduce debt. There was an increase in finished goods inventory levels as movement into export markets was sluggish throughout most of the period. Working capital declined slightly from year end levels, but the current ratio remained strong at 2.05 to 1, and debt to capital ratio was reduced to .428 to 1. Subsequent to the end of the period the Company utilized eight ($8) million of its revolver to retire secured debt from an insurance company; thus eliminating the last secured debt. As of the period end the Company had $18,750,000 available to borrow under existing lines of credit. After the July borrowing that availability is $10,750,000. Results of Operations Sales for the 13 weeks ended June 28, 1997 increased 3.5% as compared to the same period of a year ago. This increase is attributed primarily to 8.26% more production pounds. Gross margins improved to 5.9% as compared to .89% during the same period of a year ago. This improvement is mainly the result of lower feed costs. Feed cost averaged 17.2% lower this quarter as compared to a year ago when corn prices were approaching new record highs. Selling, Delivery and Administrative Expenses Selling, delivery and administrative expenses for the quarter were 11.4% higher than a year ago; and are the result of increased outside storage cost due to higher finished product inventories during the period. Interest Expense Interest expense for the quarter ended June 28, 1997 was 1.9% lower than for the same period of a year ago. This reduction is attributed to slightly reduced debt levels from a year earlier. Interest expense was impacted late in the quarter by increases in short term borrowing rates. Other Income Other income increased by 23.6% as compared to the same period of a year ago. This increase is due to increased production levels in one of the companies unconsolidated affiliates. Income from the affiliates totaled $2.168 million and $1.771 million, respectively, for the periods ended June 28, 1997 and June 29, 1996. Income Taxes The provision for income taxes reflects taxes at statutory rates adjusted for available tax credits to which the Company is entitled.
