NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The information contained in this report is unaudited, but reflects all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of the management, necessary for a fair
statement of results of the interim periods, consisting only of normal recurring
accruals. The results for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected for the full year.
Certain financial statement items for the three and six months ended June
30, 2002 have been reclassified to conform with the 2003 presentation.
ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary sources of the Registrant's liquidity are its operations,
short-term borrowings from a commercial bank pursuant to a revolving line of
credit arrangement, and other borrowings. Advances under the Registrant's line
are secured by trade receivables and inventories, and can aggregate a maximum
amount of $5,000,000 bearing interest at the lender's prime rate plus .25%. The
line, which matures on May 31, 2004, requires the Registrant to maintain certain
financial ratios. As of June 30, 2003, the amount outstanding pursuant to the
working capital line of credit was $4,600,000.
During July, 2002, the Registrant finalized the working capital line of
credit discussed in the preceding paragraph as well as an Industrial Revenue
Bond financing issued through the city of Montgomery, AL in the amount of
$3,500,000 to be utilized for a plant expansion and related equipment at the
Registrant's Montgomery, AL facility. Such financing was obtained with favorable
interest rate terms which float with current conditions. The present interest
rate is approximately 1% per year.
The Registrant is involved in making sales in the Canadian market and,
accordingly, is subject to fluctuations of the Canadian currency. The Registrant
does not engage in currency hedging and deals with such risk as a pricing issue.
Results of Operations For The Three Month Period April 1- June 30:
Gross sales increased approximately 14.4% or $788,000 for the quarter ended
June 30, 2003 when compared to the same quarter of the preceding year.
Management attributes this increase substantially from recently introduced new
marine oil products and, in part due to the timing of customer orders comparing
the 2003 and 2002 periods.
Cost of goods sold decreased as a percentage of net sales when comparing
the quarter ended June 30, 2003 with the comparable quarter in 2002. The
percentages were 71.0% and 71.8% for the respective quarters. This change,
although not significant, represents an improvement and is attributed to an
on-going effort to monitor costs.
Selling and administrative expenses increased approximately $150,500 or
18.7%comparing the quarters ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002. Such change
was primarily due to increased personnel costs and other normal recurring
increases in operating expenses.
7
Advertising and promotion decreased approximately $37,600 or 19.9%
comparing the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. This resulted primarily
from decreased co-op advertising offered certain customers and the timing of
various advertising programs in 2003.
Interest expense was substantially unchanged comparing the quarters ended
June 30, 2003 and 2002 and amounted to approximately $77,600 and $79,200,
respectively.
Results of Operations For the Six Month Period January 1 - June 30:
Gross Sales decreased 2.7% or approximately $241,000 when comparing the six
month periods of 2003 and 2002. Management attributes this to a very weak first
quarter caused by weather problems throughout the United States and a change in
ordering policies by one of the Registrant's larger customers. During the second
quarter of 2003, the Registrant benefited from both new marine oil product sales
as well as resumption of ordering from the aforementioned customer.
Cost of goods sold increased as a percentage of net sales when comparing
the six months ended June 30, 2003 with the comparable period in 2002. The
percentages were 77.4% and 73.1% for the six month periods ended 2003 and 2002,
respectively. This change resulted from various factors, some of which
negatively impacted margins and others which mitigated these factors.
Specifically, petroleum products have costs which are higher than those
experienced in prior periods and currently represent a higher portion of
manufacturing efforts. In addition, a price increase was passed along on certain
products, and margins are impacted by spreading fixed overheads over lower
revenues.
Advertising and promotion expenses decreased approximately $53,400 when
comparing the six months ended June 30, 2003 to the six months ended June 30,
2002. This was primarily due to a planned decrease in the advertising budget.
Selling and administrative expenses increased for the six months ended June
30, 2003 by approximately $ 265,800 or 19.9% when compared to the six months
ended June 30, 2002. Such change was primarily due to increased personnel costs
and other normal recurring increases in operating expenses.
Interest expense decreased during 2003 by approximately $22,400 when
compared to the same six month period of 2002. This change was primarily due to
the impact of decreasing interest rates.
