Cagle's, Inc. & Subsidiary Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements June 28, 1997 1. In the opinion of Management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments which are of normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of Cagle's, Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") as of June 27, 1998 and March 28, 1998 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the 13 weeks ended June 27, 1998 and June 28, 1997. 2. The results of operations for the 13 weeks ended June 27, 1998 and June 28, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. 3. Inventories consisted of the following: (In Thousands) June 27, 1998 March 28, 1998 Finished Product $11,073 $14,295 Field Inventory and Breeders 13,924 14,036 Feed, Eggs, and Medication 2,235 2,582 Supplies 1,551 1,654 ---------------- -------------- $28,783 $32,567 4. 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 (5) five unconsolidated affiliates using the equity method. The Company's share of earnings from from these affiliates totaled $1,902,000 for the 13 weeks ended June 27, 1998. The earnings reported for the 3 unconsolidated affiliates existing during the 13 weeks ended June 28, 1997 was $2,168,000. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation June 27, 1998 Financial Condition Improved profitability and reduced inventory levels enabled the Company to reduce its total funded debt by $7.7 million as compared to March 28, 1998 levels thus improving its leverage ratio from .48 to 1 at March 28, 1998 to .43 to 1 at June 27, 1998. As of June 27, 1998 the Company had $10,885,000 available for borrowing under unsecured lines of credit and is confident that this is adequate to fund anticipated requirements. Results of Operations Sales for the 13 weeks ended June 27, 1998 declined by 4.49% as compared to the comparable period of a year ago and is attributable mainly to 12% less production pounds while the quoted Georgia Dock Market Price for whole birds averaged 2.8% lower than for the comparable period of a year ago. The trend was one of strengthening prices for white meat throughout the quarter. Gross margins for the quarter ended June 27, 1998 averaged 10.9% as compared to 5.9% during the comparable period ended June 28, 1997. The primary cause of this major improvement is lower production cost due to 19.2% lower feed cost as feed grain accounts for the largest single factor in cost of producing a broiler chicken. Selling, Delivery and Administrative Expenses Selling, delivery and administrative expenses as a group declined by 4.2% for the quarter as compared to the comparable period of a year ago with the major reduction in outside storage expense due to reduced inventory levels. Interest Expense Interest expense for the quarter ended June 27, 1998 was 13.4% lower than for the same quarter of a year ago and reflective the lower borrowing levels during the quarter. Other Income Other income declined by 15% for the 13 weeks ended June 27, 1998 as compared to the 13 weeks ended June 28, 1997. The decline is due to the impact of start-up cost in the Cagle's/Keystone Foods LLC and Franklin Poultry Equipment, LLC which are recorded using the equity method and consequently netting against the recorded earnings of the other joint venture companies. Income Taxes The provision for income taxes reflects taxes at statutory rates adjusted for available tax credits to which the company is entitled.
