CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The condensed balance sheet as of February 23, 1996, the statements of income for the first quarter ended February 23, 1996 and February 24, 1995, and the condensed statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods then ended have been prepared by the Company, without audit. In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, have been made to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at February 23, 1996 and for the other periods presented. The results of operations for the period ended February 23, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year. 2. INVENTORIES Inventories are summarized as follows (in thousands): 2/23/96 11/24/95 2/24/95 FIFO Cost: finished shoes $3,809 $3,355 $3,345 shoes in process 40 22 32 raw materials 205 232 382 _______ _______ _______ $4,054 $3,609 $3,759 Excess of FIFO cost over LIFO inventory value (765) (555) (980) _______ _______ _______ $3,289 $3,054 $2,779 ======= ======= ======= The Company uses the LIFO method because it more realistically reflects operating results by charging current costs against current revenues. 3. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY During the three months ended February 23, 1996, shareholders' equity changed due to the net income of $224,000, dividends declared of $74,000 and a decrease of $43,000 resulting from a decrease in the net unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities held by the Company. Effective November 26, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities", necessitating the inclusion of this net unrealized gain on the balance sheet. PENOBSCOT SHOE COMPANY MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS Liquidity and Capital Resources: At February 23, 1996, Penobscot Shoe Company had working capital of approximately $10,297,000 versus approximately $10,172,000 at November 24, 1995, an increase of $125,000. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities at February 23, 1996, was 8.5 to 1, compared to 8.9 to 1, at November 24, 1995. The statement of cash flows for the three months ended February 23, 1996, shows a decrease of $339,000 in cash and cash equivalents since November 24, 1995. The Company's operations used $255,000 since November 24, 1995, primarily due to seasonal fluctuations in inventory. The Company's quarterly dividend amounted to a use of $74,000 during the period and capital expenditures for equipment amounted to a further use of $10,000 during the period. The increases in the Company's inventory, accounts receivable, other current assets and other current liabilities since November 24, 1995, were the result of ordinary fluctuations. Management believes that Penobscot Shoe Company remains financially well structured to consider a variety of financing options should the need arise and will make choices depending on economic conditions at the time. Options available include conversion of marketable securities held by the Company into cash and cash equivalents. The Company also has an established line of credit with a major bank available for direct borrowing at the prime rate should the need arise. Results of Operations: Net sales for the first quarter ended February 23, 1996, were $4,225,000, up 35% from $3,120,000 in the same quarter last year. Net income for the current quarter was $224,000, or $.15 per share, compared to $14,000, or $.01 per share, a year ago. The current quarter's net income benefited from gains on the sales of securities which contributed $48,000, or $.03 per share. The first quarter last year had no such gains. The increase in net sales in the first quarter resulted from the combination of a strong winter boot season and earlier shipments of some spring merchandise. While the retail environment has recently shown some improvement, the first quarter sales and profit increases should not necessarily be considered indicative of future results. Selling and administrative expenses were approximately 6% higher than a year ago. This increase was the result of costs which are variable on sales volume. Other income in the first quarter of 1996 was $138,000, pre-tax, compared to $53,000 in the same quarter last year. The current quarter benefited from gains on the sales of securities which totalled $80,000, pre-tax, while the first quarter of last year included no such gains. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
