NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1995 and 1994
(unaudited)
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q have
been prepared by The Forschner Group, Inc. ("Forschner", the "Company") without
audit. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It is suggested that these
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1994. In the opinion of management of the Company,
the interim financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for
the interim periods presented. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company's
business, the results of operations for the interim periods presented are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
INVENTORIES
Domestic inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the
last-in, first-out (LIFO) method) or market. Had the first-in, first-out (FIFO)
method been used to value domestic inventories as of June 30, 1995 and 1994, the
balance at which inventories are stated would have been $2,683,000 and
$2,487,000 higher, respectively. Foreign inventories are valued at the lower or
cost or market determined by the FIFO method. Inventories principally consist of
finished goods and packaging material.
INVESTMENTS
Investments is comprised of the following as of June 30, 1995 and
December 31, 1994:

Investments in unconsolidated affiliates (C) $7,392,189 $4,463,080
(A) Represents Forschner's investment in Forschner Enterprises, Inc., a
privately held corporation. Forschner's preferred stock has cumulative dividends
and voting rights. Forschner is accounting for this investment on the cost
basis.
(B) Represents Forschner's investment in a development stage company involved in
the design, manufacture and marketing of fine jewelry. As of June 30, 1995,
Forschner owned 19.0% of the outstanding common stock of this company and
accounts for the investment on the cost basis.
8
(C) Includes Forschner's investments in Simmons Outdoor Corporation ("Simmons")
and SweetWater, Inc ("SweetWater"). In the first quarter of 1995, Forschner
increased its percentage ownership of Simmons to 20% and SweetWater to 37%. In
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as of March 31, 1995,
these investments were accounted for under the equity method, with Forschner
recording its proportional share of net income or losses of these companies and
amortization of goodwill related to the acquisition of the two investments. The
total net impact for the six months ended June 30, 1995 is recorded in other
income (expense), net in the accompanying statement of operations, including a
$635,000 one-time favorable impact of Forschner's share of net income of both of
these companies, less amortization of goodwill, computed from the date when
Forschner first acquired stock in each of the companies. The accompanying
balance sheet as of December 31, 1994 reflects adjustments necessary to show
Forschner's investments in Simmons and SweetWater on a cost basis instead of at
market as previously shown in the Company's Form 10-K.
SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER
Special promotional programs with a single customer of the Corporate
Markets Division accounted for 0% and 42% of total sales for the quarter ended
June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively, and 14% and 34% of total sales for the six
months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The Company is not
participating in a program with this customer currently, nor are any programs
currently scheduled for the remainder of 1995 with this customer.
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are provided at the projected annual effective tax rate.
The income tax provisions for the interim 1995 and 1994 periods exceed the
federal statutory rate of 34% due primarily to state income taxes (net of
federal benefit), foreign tax rate differences and, in 1995, to the
non-deductibility of equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates.
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
The weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
include the dilutive effect of stock options outstanding. The fully diluted
earnings per share amount for both periods is the same as primary earnings per
share.

THE FORSCHNER GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(unaudited)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 1995 and 1994
Sales for the three months ended June 30, 1995 were $25.9 million
compared with $39.9 million for the same period a year ago, representing a
decrease of $14.0 million or 35%. Sales comparisons with the second quarter of
1994 are significantly impacted by the exceptional promotional program for a
single customer of the Corporate Markets Division which began in 1994 and
concluded at the end of the first quarter of 1995. The promotional program
accounted for 42% of the Company's sales for the second quarter of 1994 versus
zero in 1995. Excluding the impact of this promotional program on results for
the 1994 period, sales increased in the three months ended June 30, 1995.
However, with the end of the program, sales for the second quarter decreased
substantially. Including results of the special promotional program, sales of
Swiss Army Knives, Swiss Army Brand Watches and Swiss Army Brand Sunglasses
decreased while sales of cutlery increased. Excluding the impact of sales to
this customer, the Company's sales were 11% higher than in the second quarter of
1994, with increases among all major products.
Gross profit of $8.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 1995
decreased $4.7 million or 35% from 1994. The decrease relates principally to the
impact of sales decreases previously discussed. The gross profit margin for the
second quarter of 1995 of 33.6% was comparable to the margin of 33.5% reported
for the same period of 1994. Forschner's gross profit margin is a function of
both product mix and Swiss franc exchange rates. Since Forschner imports
virtually all of its products from Switzerland, its costs are affected by both
the spot rate of exchange and by its foreign currency hedging program. The
weakness of the U.S. dollar in relation to the Swiss franc began to impact
Forschner's gross margin in the second quarter of 1995, and unless the exchange
rate between the U.S. dollar and Swiss franc improves substantially in favor of
the dollar, continuing weakness will have a significant adverse impact on
earnings in the second half of the year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended
June 30, 1995 of $8.0 million were $3.0 million or 27% lower than the amount for
the comparable period in 1994, which included a special charitable contribution
of $1.5 million. The remaining $1.5 million decrease in expenses resulted
primarily from decreased national advertising and lower printed material costs
offset slightly by personnel costs related to an increase in Forschner's direct
sales force. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative
expenses (including the charitable contribution) increased from 27.6% in 1994 to
30.9% in 1995.
Due to higher invested cash balances in the three months ended June 30,
1995 than in the comparable period of 1994, interest income of $165,000 in 1995
exceeded the $5,000 recorded in the year earlier period.
Other expense of $312,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1995 was $331,000
lower than the $18,000 of income for the same period in 1994, due to recognition
of Forschner's share of losses in its equity investment SweetWater, Inc., offset
somewhat by its share of income of its other equity investment, Simmons Outdoor
Corporation, and amortization of goodwill relating to the two investments.
10
As a result of these changes, income before income taxes for the
quarter ended June 30, 1995 was $0.5 million versus $2.4 million for the same
period in 1994, for a decrease of $1.9 million or 77%.
Income tax expense was provided at an effective rate of 59.6% for the
three months ended June 30, 1995, versus 42.1% in 1994, with the increase
related primarily to the non-deductibility of Forschner's share of losses and
amortization of goodwill relating to its equity investments.
Net income was $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 1995
versus $1.4 million in the comparable period of 1994, representing a decrease of
$1.2 million or 84%.
On a per share basis for the quarter ended June 30, 1995, net income
was $0.03 compared with $0.17 in 1994, an 82% decrease.
Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 1995 and 1994
Sales for the six months ended June 30, 1995 were $55.3 million
compared with $67.0 million for the same period a year ago, representing a
decrease of $11.7 million or 18%. Sales comparisons with the first half of 1994
are significantly impacted by the exceptional promotional program for a single
customer of the Corporate Markets Division which began in 1994 and concluded at
the end of the first quarter of 1995. The promotional program accounted for 34%
of the Company's sales for the first half of 1994 versus 14% in 1995. Excluding
the impact of this promotional program on results for the 1994 period, sales
increased 8% in the six months ended June 30, 1995. However, with the end of the
program, sales for the first half decreased 18%. Including results of the
special promotional program, sales of Swiss Army Knives, Swiss Army Brand
Watches and Sunglasses decreased while sales of cutlery increased. Excluding the
impact of sales to this customer, the Company's sales of Swiss Army Knives were
modestly higher than in the first half of 1994. Swiss Army Brand Watch sales and
sales of cutlery also posted increases.
Gross profit of $19.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1995
decreased $4.7 million or 20% from 1994. The decrease relates principally to
sales decreases previously discussed, reduced gross profit margins on sales to
the promotional customer and the negative impact of a weaker U.S. dollar against
the Swiss franc. The gross profit margin for the first half of 1995 of 35.1% was
down slightly from the margin of 36.1% reported for the same period of 1994.
Forschner's gross profit margin is a function of both product mix and Swiss
franc exchange rates. Since Forschner imports virtually all of its products from
Switzerland, its costs are affected by both the spot rate of exchange and by its
foreign currency hedging program. The weakness of the U.S. dollar in relation to
the Swiss franc began to impact Forschner's gross margin in the second quarter
of 1995, and unless the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and Swiss franc
improves substantially in favor of the dollar, continuing weakness will have a
significant adverse impact on earnings in the second half of the year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June
30, 1995 of $17.1 million were $2.1 million or 11% lower than the amount for the
comparable period in 1994, which included a special charitable contribution of
$1.5 million. The remaining $0.6 million decrease in expenses resulted primarily
from decreased national advertising and lower printed material costs offset
somewhat by personnel costs related to an increase in Forschner's direct sales
force. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative
expenses (including the charitable contribution) increased from 28.7% in 1994 to
31.0% in 1995.
11
Due to higher invested cash balances in the six months ended June 30,
1995 than in the comparable period of 1994, interest income of $416,000 in 1995
exceeded the $19,000 recorded in the year earlier period.
Other income of $52,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1995 was
$38,000 lower than the $90,000 of income for the same period in 1994, due to
recognition of Forschner's share of losses in its equity investment SweetWater,
Inc. and amortization of goodwill relating to its two equity investments, offset
somewhat by its share of income of its other equity investment, Simmons Outdoor
Corporation, and the one-time favorable impact of recognizing Forschner's
cumulative share of net income, less amortization of goodwill, of Forschner's
two equity investments.
As a result of these changes, income before income taxes for the six
months ended June 30, 1995 was $2.7 million versus $5.0 million for the same
period in 1994, a decrease of $2.3 million or 46%.
Income tax expense was provided at an effective rate of 45.5% for the
six months ended June 30, 1995, versus 42.1% in 1994, with the increase related
primarily to the non-deductibility of Forschner's share of losses and
amortization of goodwill relating to its equity investments.
Net income was $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 1995
versus $2.9 million in the comparable period of 1994, representing a decrease of
$1.4 million or 49%.
On a per share basis for the six months ended June 30, 1995, net income
was $0.18 compared with $0.38 in 1994, a 53% decrease.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of June 30, 1995, Forschner had working capital of $52.2 million
compared with $54.7 million as of December 31, 1994, a decrease of $2.5 million
principally due to investments the Company made during the six months ended June
30, 1995. Sources of working capital included net income of $1.5 million and
depreciation and amortization of $2.1 million. Significant uses of working
capital included the Company's $3.8 million increase in the common stock
investments of Simmons Outdoor Corporation and SweetWater, Inc. and capital
expenditures and additions to other assets of $2.2 million. The Company
currently has no material commitments for capital expenditures.
Cash used in operating activities was approximately $4.6 million in the
six months ended June 30, 1995 compared with $1.4 million in the comparable
period in 1994. The increased usage of cash in operations resulted from a much
larger increase in inventories in 1995 than in the prior year, an increase in
prepaid expenses versus a decrease in 1994, a decrease in accrued liabilities
versus an increase in 1994 and a larger decrease in taxes payable in 1995 than
in 1994, all of which were somewhat offset by a reduction in accounts receivable
versus an increase in 1994, an increase in accounts payable versus a decrease in
1994 and lower net income in 1995 than in 1994.
Forschner meets its short-term liquidity needs with cash generated from
operations, and, when necessary, bank borrowings under its revolving credit
agreement. As of June 30, 1995, Forschner had no outstanding borrowings under
its revolving line of credit, leaving an unused line of $15 million. Forschner's
short-term liquidity is affected by seasonal changes in inventory levels,
payment terms and seasonality of sales. The Company believes that cash generated
from operations and borrowings under its credit facility will be sufficient to
meet the Company's anticipated operating and capital needs through the
expiration of the revolving credit agreement in April 1996.
