NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) Note 1: Basis of Presentation 	 The accompanying financial statements are unaudited and reflect all adjustments which are normal and recurring in nature, and which, 	 in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation 	 of operations and cash flows. Reclassifications have been made to prior year financial information wherever necessary to conform to the current year presentation. Results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of full-year results. Note 2: Per Share Data 	 The computation of earnings per share for the twenty-six and thirteen week periods of 1995 is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods. The exercise of outstanding options and warrants is not considered in the computa- tion because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive for all periods presented for 1995. 	 The computation of earnings per share for the twenty-six and thirteen week periods of 1994 is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of the poten- tial exercise of outstanding options and warrants to purchase shares of common stock is calculated using the treasury stock method. Note 3: Credit Facility Effective February 16, 1995, the Company entered into a new credit 	 facility providing a revolving line of credit up to $15,500,000, 	 subject to an adequate borrowing base, expiring March 1997. The 	 revolving credit facility provides an available base amount of $5,000,000 with an additional seasonal amount of $10,500,000 available from May 1 through November 30 of each year. The revolving line of credit is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. Note 4: Stockholders' Equity In January 1995, options for an additional 1,000,000 common shares were granted under a new non-qualified plan to management at $.875 per share. These options are subject to forfeiture if certain performance goals are not met during fiscal year 1995. The 1995 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan was approved and ratified by the Company's stockholders at the annual meeting held on April 26, 1995. 6 THE SPORTSMAN'S GUIDE, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (UNAUDITED) Note 4 (Continued): On April 26, 1995, the Company's stockholders authorized the Board of Directors to determine at any time prior to December 29, 1995 that the number of outstanding shares of common stock of the Company will be changed into one new share of common stock in a ratio of not less than 5 to 1 nor more than 20 to 1, or if such reverse stock split is not advisable, no further action will be taken in such regard. 7 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 	 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company meets its operating cash requirements through funds generated from operations, borrowings under its revolving line of credit and sub- ordinated debt with existing shareholders and new investors. Because of increasing sales and correspondingly higher levels of inventory, the Company's needs for external sources to fund working capital has increased. Effective February 16, 1995, the Company entered into a new credit facility providing a revolving line of credit up to $15,500,000, subject to an adequate borrowing base, expiring March 1997. The revolving credit facility provides an available base amount of $5,000,000 with an additional seasonal amount of $10,500,000 available from May 1 through November 30 of each year. The revolving line of credit is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. As of June 30, 1995, the Company borrowed $9,345,000 against the revolving line of credit. The cash flow used in operating activities for the thirteen week period ended June 30, 1995 was $2,840,000 compared to $3,944,000 for the same period last year. This decrease in cash flow used in operating activities was primarily as a result of a decrease in promotional material due to timing of the receipt of catalogs. The cash flow used in operating activities for the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1995 was $7,890,000 compared to $6,706,000 for the same period last year. This increase in cash flow used in operating activities was largely due to the net loss in 1995 as compared to the net earnings in 1994. The Company had a working capital deficit of $1,324,000 as of June 30, 1995 as compared to working capital of $3,951,000 as of December 30, 1994. The decrease in working capital was primarily as a result of an increase in the current maturities of long-term debt. The inventory level as of June 30, 1995 increased $7,486,000 from the fiscal year ended December 30, 1994. This increase was primarily due to the seasonality of the Company's business with greater sales generated during the second half of the year. In addition, the higher level of inventory was as a result of lower than expected catalog sales in the first half of 1995 along with planned sales growth over prior year periods. The notes payable-bank as of June 30, 1995 increased $9,345,000 from the fiscal year ended December 30, 1994. This increase was primarily due to the higher level of inventory and lower earnings in 1995 as compared to 1994. The Company believes it will have sufficient funds available to meet current and future commitments. 8 Results of Operations Comparison of the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 1995 to the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended July 1, 1994 The Company's sales for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 1995, increased $2,452,000 and $5,965,000 or 16% and 17%, respectively, from the same periods last year. This increase in sales is attributable to a planned increase in catalog circulation. The Company was able to offset the majority of the postal rate and paper price increases with the use of a slightly lower grade of paper and printing efficiencies, thus allowing for an aggressive marketing plan. Gross profit for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 1995, was 32.5% and 34.6% of sales, respectively, compared to 33.1% and 30.2% of sales, respectively, for the same periods last year. When comparing to the same period last year, the decrease in the gross profit as a percent of sales, for the thirteen week period, was primarily due to lower shipping revenue on the average outgoing parcel to customers. The increase in the gross profit as a percent of sales, for the twenty-six week period, was primarily due to reduced shipping costs of outgoing parcels to customers, an increase in the shipping and handling charges to the customer and improved retail product margins in the clothing and footwear categories. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the thirteen week period ended June 30, 1995, were $6,933,000 or 39.4% of sales compared to $4,779,000 or 31.6% of sales for the same period last year. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1995, were $15,241,000 or 36.8% of sales compared to $10,059,000 or 28.4% of sales for the same period last year. The increase in the dollar spending level, for the thirteen week and twenty-six week period ended June 30, 1995, was due to higher catalog costs with the planned increase in catalog circulation. The increase as a percent of sales was primarily due to lower customer response on the catalogs. Interest expense for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 1995, was $239,000 and $388,000, respectively as compared to $136,000 and $198,000 for the same periods last year. The increase was primarily due to interest on the revolving line of credit to finance the increased inventory level. Income tax benefit for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 1995, was $393,000 and $350,000, respectively. The income tax benefit for the periods ended June 30, 1995 represents recoverable income taxes from the prior year. In 1994, the Company utilized net operating loss carryforwards to offset any income tax charges. As a result of the above, the net losses for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 1995, were ($1,046,000) and ($956,000), respectively, as compared to net earnings of $51,000 and $410,000, respectively, for the same periods last year. 9 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
