NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) The consolidated balance sheet as of November 30, 1995 the consolidated statements of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three-month and six-month periods ended November 30, 1995 and 1994 have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows at November 30, 1995 and 1994 have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's May 31, 1995 annual report to shareholders. The results of operations for the six-month period ended November 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending May 31, 1996. November 30, 1995 May 31, 1995 Cash and cash equivalents consist of: Cash $ 242 $ 413 Money market funds 308 134 Matured funds at factor 916 829 $1,466 $1,376 Allowances for collection losses and discounts are: Collection losses $ 108 $ 88 Discounts 12 10 $ 120 $ 98 Inventories consist of: Raw materials $1,422 $1,381 Work-in-process 1,105 985 Finished goods 1,690 1,659 $4,217 $4,025 Accumulated depreciation on property, plant and equipment not used in operations is: $ 134 $ 347 Provision for federal income tax detail is: Current tax expense $ 305 $ 480 Deferred tax benefit (11) (49) $ 294 $ 431 Cash flow information: Cash payments for interest $ 28 $ 32 Cash payments for federal income taxes $ 340 $ 460 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Working capital at November 30, 1995 was $6,120,169, an increase of $325,202 from May 31, 1995. Cash and cash equivalents increased $89,869 during the six-month period ended November 30, 1995. Cash was used to fund normal working capital requirements, including acquisition of property, plant and equipment additions, payment of dividends and payment of matured accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Accounts receivable decreased $147,841 primarily due to the timing of shipments during the quarter. Inventories increased $191,785 primarily to meet increased sales. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased $28,467 primarily due to payment of normal maturities and accrued expenses during the six-month period. The current ratio at November 30, 1995 is 4.5 to 1 (4 to 1 at May 31, 1995). Total liabilities to assets equals twenty percent (twenty-two percent at May 31, 1995). The Company factors its accounts receivable with a commercial factor on a matured basis. (Funds are remitted by the factor upon maturity of the invoices, plus a set number of collection days). The factor establishes a credit line per customer on a non-recourse basis. Credit extended by the company in excess of the credit line is factored on a recourse basis (946,000 at November 30, 1995-$614,000 at May 31, 1995). Capital acquisition and improvement expenditures totaled $229,071 during the six-month period ended November 30, 1995. It is estimated that approximately $50,000 additional capital expenditures will be made over the next two quarters, consisting primarily of equipment and improvements to existing facilities. Funding will come from cash flows generated through operating activities. No significant disposition of equipment occurred during the six- month period ended November 30, 1995, and none is planned during the next three-month period. In November 1995 a building, carried in the balance sheet as property, plant and equipment not used in operations was sold for $250,000 from which a gain of $95,154 after taxes was realized. The Company does not offer a retirement plan nor offer post retirement or employment benefits. Accordingly, there will be no impact on the Company due to SFAS 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions" and SFAS 112, "Employers' Accounting for Post Employment Benefits". Based on current operations and internally generated cash flows, management believes that adequate resources will be available to meet current and future liquidity requirements. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net sales for the second quarter and six-month periods ended November 30, 1995 increased approximately five and six-tenths of one percent and five and one-half of one percent, respectively, in each period compared to the 1994 second quarter and six-month periods. Net sales for the second quarter ended November 30, 1995 increased approximately two and three-tenths of one percent over the preceding first quarter. The increases resulted primarily from a slightly stronger product demand and a broadened market base. Cost of sales, as a percentage relationship to net sales for the second quarter ended November 30, 1995, decreased approximately one and six-tenths of one percent from the second quarter ended November 30, 1994 and approximately six percent from the preceding first quarter ended August 31, 1995. For the six-month period ended November 30, 1995, the cost of sales percentage relationship to net sales decreased approximately two-tenths of one percent compared to the 1994 six-month period. The percentage decreases resulted primarily from a change in product sales mix. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three-month and six- month periods ended November 30, 1995, as a percentage relationship to net sales, increased approximately eight-tenths of one percent and decreased four-tenths of one percent, respectively, compared to the 1994 three-month and six-month periods. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage relationship to net sales, were approximately five percent higher in the 1995 second quarter compared to the first quarter. The percentage increases resulted primarily from higher selling and marketing expenses. The provision for bad debt expense was $45,000, in the 1995 and 1994 six-month periods. Other income in the 1995 three-month and six-month periods decreased approximately thirty percent and forty-three percent, respectively, in both periods over the 1994 comparable periods. Other income increased approximately forty-five percent in the 1995 second quarter compared to the first quarter. The increase and decreases all resulted primarily from rental income from property not used in operations. Interest income in the three-month periods ended November 30, 1995 decreased approximately forty-four percent and sixty-one percent, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1994. Interest income increased approximately one hundred twenty-two percent in the 1995 second quarter compared to the first quarter. The changes are primarily due to changes in average cash balances. Interest expense for the three-month and six-month periods ended November 30, 1995 increased approximately one hundred ninety-six percent and one hundred twenty-five percent, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1994. The increases resulted primarily from higher factor interest costs on recourse accounts receivable. Interest expense in the 1995 second quarter increased approximately thirty-six percent from the first quarter. The increases resulted primarily from higher factor interest costs on recourse accounts receivable. The federal income tax provision effective tax rate of 35 percent differs from the statutory rate (34 percent) as a result of nondeductible life insurance premiums, nondeductible portion of meals, accelerated depreciation, capitalization of certain expenses in inventories and the difference between the doubtful account reserve and write-off.
