Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Pak Mail Centers of America, Inc. was incorporated in Colorado in
1984 and is engaged in the business of marketing and franchising
Pak Mail service centers and retail stores which specialize in
custom packaging and crating of items to be mailed or shipped. For
the period from December 1, 1995 through April 15, 1996, the
Company awarded 13 individual franchises and as of April 15, 1996,
the Company had 280 individual franchise agreements in existence.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pak
Mail Centers of America, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Pak
Mail Crating and Freight Service, Inc. (Company). All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Note 2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
prepared by the Company. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted. In the opinion of the Company's management,
the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented
not misleading, and the consolidated financial statements contain
all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position
as of February 29, 1996, results of operations for the three months
ended February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995 and cash flows for
the three months ended February 29, 1996 and February 28, 1995.
The results of operations for the three months ended February 29,
1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for the full year.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
The following information should be read in conjunction with the
unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein. See
Item 1.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company experienced cash flow deficiencies of $5,635 ($20,415
from investing activities and $19,499 from financing activities
offset by $34,280 provided from operating activities) during the
three months ended February 29, 1996.
Deferred revenue decreased $69,350 to $580,001 at February 29,
1996. The decrease is primarily a result of recognizing revenue on
4 of the 8 individual franchise fees that were deferred as of
November 30, 1995. The Company has deferred the recognition of
revenue with respect to 2 of the 5 individual franchises awarded
during the three months ended February 29, 1996. The Company
anticipates that all of the deferred individual franchise fees will
be recognized as revenue in fiscal 1996.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended February 29, 1996, compared to three months
ended February 28, 1995
Total revenues decreased $101,694 (10.8%) to $836,823 for the three
months ended February 29, 1996. The decrease is primarily
attributable to decreases in Area franchise fees (down 93.6% from
$125,276 to $8,000) and Sales of equipment, supplies and services
(down 43.6% from $215,404 to $121,402) partially offset by
increases in Royalties from franchisees (up 20.1% from $470,786 to
$565,490) and Individual franchisee fees (up 28.3% from $95,000 to
$121,928).
The $117,276 decrease in revenue from Area franchise fees is
primarily due to no awards recognized during the three months ended
February 29, 1996 compared to two awards recognized during the same
period in 1995.
The $94,002 decrease in Sales of equipment, supplies and services
is primarily due to the decrease in the number of new franchisees
that purchased equipment during the three months ending February
29, 1996 compared to the same prior year period. The Company
opened 8 stores during the three months ended February 29, 1996
compared to 15 for the same prior year period.
The $94,704 increase in royalties is due to increases in the
average store volumes and number of stores open.
The $26,928 increase in Individual franchise fees represents the
recognition of revenue from two additional franchises during the
three months ending February 29, 1996 compared to the same prior
year period and a differing mix of per franchise revenue
recognition.
Total expenses decreased $32,847 (3.5%) to $896,874 for the three
months ended February 29, 1996. The decrease is primarily
attributable to a decreases in Cost of sales of equipment, supplies
and services (down 41.2% from $178,736 to $105,104) and Selling,
general and administrative (down 9.1% from $539,728 to $490,515)
partially offset by an increase in Royalties paid to area
franchisees (up 58.9% from $99,583 to $158,239).
The $73,632 decrease in Cost of sales of equipment, supplies and
services is primarily due to the decrease in the number of new
franchisees that purchased equipment during the three months ending
February 29, 1996 compared to the prior year period.
The $49,213 decrease in Selling, general and administrative relates
primarily to an decreases in employee benefits, convention expense
and the elimination of the regional office the Company maintained
during fiscal 1995. The $19,420 decrease in employee benefits
relates to an unusually high occurrence of employee health claims
during the first quarter of 1995. Through the first quarter of
fiscal 1995, the Company participated in a self funded health
insurance program where the Company is responsible for the first
$5,000 of each employee claim incurred. In October 1995, the
Company switched health insurance coverage to a fixed premium
coverage program. The $14,161 decrease in convention expense
relates to the 1995 annual convention. The Company does not plan
to hold a convention in fiscal 1996.
The $58,656 increase in Royalty rebates relate to the increase in
percentage of stores that operate within area marketer regions and
an increase in the average store volumes.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
Irwin Jacobs v. Pak Mail Centers of America, Inc. and South Florida
Realprop, Inc. d/b/a/ Pak Mail Centers of America Southern Region,
Civil Action, File No. 95A4565-4, Cobb County, Georgia. The complaint
alleges wrongdoing on the part of the Company regarding the termination
of plaintiff's franchise agreement by the Company. Additionally,
plaintiff alleges that South Florida Realprop, Inc. ( SFRP ) provided
plaintiff with certain equipment that SFRP did not have title to, that
SFRP and PMCA somehow inappropriately diverted potential buyers of
plaintiff's franchise, that SFRP and the Company somehow deceived
plaintiff into surrendering possession of his franchise and then
inappropriately operated the franchise under his business license, that
SFRP and PMCA wrongfully sold plaintiff's terminated franchise and did
not account to plaintiff or turn over proceeds, and that
misrepresentations were made to the purchaser of the franchise
respecting plaintiff's operation of the franchise. Plaintiff seeks
$60,000 of compensatory damages and $150,000 of punitive damages, as
well as costs, interest and attorney's fees. The case was removed by
the Company to the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Georgia on August 29, 1995 and now bears a Civil Action No.
of 1 95-CV-2190-RLV. Contemporaneously with removal of the action, the
Company filed a Motion to Stay the Proceedings Pending Arbitration,
which was granted on January 29, 1996. The Company intends to contest
vigorously any arbitration filed by Jacobs.
