TOP AIR MANUFACTURING, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) Note 1. Condensed Financial Statements The condensed balance sheet as of August 31, 1996 and the statements of operations and cash flows for the three months ended August 31, 1996 and 1995, 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 cash flows at August 31, 1996 and for all periods presented have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's May 31, 1996 Annual Report to Shareholders. The results of operations for the periods ended August 31, 1996 and 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Note 2. Inventories Inventories consist of the following: August 31, May 31, 1996 1996 Finished Goods $ 2,447,821 $ 2,453,691 Work in Process 28,703 38,303 Raw Materials and Supplies 218,402 143,808 ------------ ----------- $ 2,694,926 $ 2,635,802 ============ =========== TOP AIR MANUFACTURING, INC. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Net Sales: Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 increased 31% to $1,890,119 compared to $1,445,179 for the same period last year. The increase was primarily a result of the incremental sales picked up in the acquisition of Clay Equipment of $421,638. The prior years first quarter only included two months for Clay Equipment sales because the acquisition occurred on June 26, 1995. Also, a sales increase of approximately $200,000 of Top Air products was offset by a similar sales decrease of Clay products. Operating Costs & Expenses: The Company's cost of goods sold for the quarter ended August 31, 1996 decreased to 70% of net sales compared to 75% for the first quarter of the previous year. The decrease, as a percentage of sales, was a result of overhead being spread over a higher volume of sales, with a majority of the sales increase consisting of wholegoods which have higher profit margins than parts sales. Operating expenses increased 20% to $643,615 for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to $536,996 for the previous year. The increase was primarily a result of the incremental expenses incurred from the Clay Equipment acquisition because as mentioned above the prior years first quarter only included two months of Clay activity. Interest Expense: Interest expense decreased 27% to $23,585 compared to $32,407 for the first quarter of last year. The decrease was due to lower levels of short-term and long-term debt outstanding during the period. Income Taxes: The income tax credits of $19,100 and $72,000 for the quarters ended August 31, 1996 and 1995, represent the benefit that would be received if the loss of the quarter was carried back to reclaim income tax paid in prior years. TOP AIR MANUFACTURING, INC. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Material Changes in Financial Position: The Company's loss from operations of $38,079 combined with net purchaes of fixed assets of approximately $100,000, net of depreciation, offset by an increase in a long-term line of credit of approximately $420,000 used to pay current liabilities, resulted in an increase in working capital of approximately $270,000. Liquidity and Capital Resources: At August 31, 1996 the Company had working capital of $3,999,937 an increase of $932,191 over a year ago and an increase of $271,147 since May 31, 1996. The increase from a year ago was a result of reclassifying approximately $728,000 of equipment to current assets held for sale related to relocation of the old Clay facility to the newly constructed plant and approximately a $300,000 reduction in short term debt without a related increase in receivables or inventory. The increase since May 31, 1996 is described above. The current ratio increased to 4.51 from 3.43 at May 31, 1996. The Company anticipates no significant out lays for property and equipment in the forseeable future. The company believes it has access to sufficient working capital for its present and forseeable future. TOP AIR MANUFACTURING, INC. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 6.
