MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General
The increase in sales and profitability that was achieved by the Company
during the first quarter of 1999 was attributable in large measure to the
introduction during that quarter of the Company's Healthy Start juice line in
multi-serve P.E.T. bottles, which were sold mainly to club stores, and the
Signature Soda line. Late in the first quarter of 2000, the Company began
introducing its new Slim Down functional drink and its Healthy Start juice line
in glass bottles. However, due to the late introduction, the contribution by
those products to sales during the quarter was minimal.
The increase in sales during the first quarter of 2000 was primarily
attributable to sales of the Company's children's multi-vitamin juice drinks in
8.45-oz. aseptic packages, which were introduced during the third quarter of
1999, and increased sales of the Company's functional drinks in 8.2-oz. slim
cans. Such increase was, however, largely offset by decreased sales of Healthy
Start juices in multi-serve PET bottles and, to a lesser extent, by decreased
sales of Smoothies in 11.5-oz. cans, Signature Sodas, Smoothies in multi-serve
PET bottles, and teas, lemonades and juice cocktails.
Due to the lower gross profit margins achieved by the Company on its
children's multi-vitamin juice drinks in 8.45-oz. aseptic packages compared to
Healthy Start juices and Signature Sodas, the overall gross profit margin
achieved by the Company during the first quarter of 2000 decreased to 45.1% from
48.6% during the first quarter of 1999.
The Company continues to incur expenditures in connection with the
development and introduction of new products and flavors.
During the first quarter of 2000, the Company repurchased 149,175 shares of
its common stock at an average price of $3.95 per share.

Results of Operations for the Three-months Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to the
Three-months Ended March 31, 1999
Net Sales. For the three-months ended March 31, 2000, net sales were
approximately $16.0 million, an increase of $749,000 or 4.9% higher than the
$15.2 million net sales for the three-months ended March 31, 1999. The increase
in net sales was primarily attributable to sales of the Company's multi-vitamin
juice drinks, which were introduced in the third quarter of 1999, Super
Smoothies, which were also introduced in the third quarter of 1999, and
increased sales of the Company's energy and other functional drinks in 8.2 oz.
slim cans and sodas in cans. The increase in net sales was largely offset by
decreased sales of Healthy Start juices in multi-serve PET bottles, and to a
lesser extent, decreased sales of Smoothies in 11.5 oz. cans, Signature Sodas,
Smoothies in multi-serve PET bottles, and teas, lemonades and juice cocktails.
Gross Profit. Gross profit was $7.2 million for the three-months ended
March 31, 2000, a decrease of $204,000 or 2.8% lower than the $7.4 million gross
profit for the three-months ended March 31, 1999. Gross profit as a percentage
of net sales decreased to 45.1% for the three-months ended March 31, 2000 from
48.6% for the three-months ended March 31, 1999. The decrease in gross profit
and gross profit as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to
lower margins achieved as a result of a change in the Company's product mix.
Total Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses were $6.0 million for
the three-months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $176,000 or 3.0% higher
than total operating expenses of $5.9 million for the three-months ended March
31, 1999. Total operating expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to
37.8% for the three-months ended March 31, from 38.5% for the three-months ended
March 31, 1999. The increase in total operating expenses was primarily
attributable to increased selling, general and administrative expenses. The
decrease in total operating expenses as a percentage of net sales was primarily
attributable to a comparably lower increase in total operating expenses as
compared to the increase in net sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $6.0 million for the
three-months ended March 31, 2000, an increase of $182,000 or 3.2% higher than
selling, general and administrative expenses of $5.8 million for the
three-months ended March 31, 1999. The increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses was primarily attributable to increased slotting fees of
$336,000 for the three-months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to slotting fees
of $50,000 for the three-months ended March 31, 1999 and increased distribution
expenses. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was
partially offset by a decrease in certain selling and marketing expenses,
particularly expenditures relating to in-store demonstrations and the costs of
merchandise displays.
Operating Income. Operating income was $1.2 million for the three-months
ended March 31, 2000, a decrease of $380,000 or 24.5% lower than operating
income of $1.5 million for the three-months ended March 31, 1999. Operating
income as a percentage of net sales decreased to 7.3% for the three-months ended
March 31, 2000 from 10.2% for the three-months ended March 31, 1999. The
decrease in operating income was attributable to a $204,000 decrease in gross
profit and an increase of $176,000 in operating expenses. The 2.9% decrease
8
in operating income as a percentage of net sales was partially attributable to a
3.6% decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales which was partially
offset by a 0.7% decrease in operating expenses as a percentage of net sales.
Net Non-operating Expense. Net non-operating expense was $21,000 for the
three-months ended March 31, 2000, a decrease of $16,000 or 42.9% lower than net
non-operating expense of $37,000 for the three-months ended March 31, 1999. Net
non-operating expense consists of interest and financing expense and interest
income. Interest and financing expense for the three-months ended March 31, 2000
was $28,000 as compared to interest and financing expense of $63,000 for the
three-months ended March 31, 1999. The decrease in interest and financing
expense was primarily attributable to lower interest expense incurred on the
Company's long-term debt, which was substantially lower than the average
outstanding long-term debt during the comparable period in 1999. Interest income
for the three-months ended March 31, 2000 was $7,000 as compared to $26,000 for
the three-months ended March 31, 1999. The decrease in interest income was
primarily attributable to decreased cash available for investing in
interest-bearing securities during the period.
Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes for the three-months
ended March 31, 2000 was $459,000 as compared to provision for income taxes of
$602,000 for the comparable period in 1999. The $143,000 decrease in provision
for income taxes was primarily attributable to the decrease in operating income.
Net Income. Net income was $688,000 for the three-months ended March 31,
2000, a decrease of $221,000 or 24.3% lower than net income of $909,000 for the
three-months ended March 31, 1999. The decrease in net income was attributable
to the decrease in gross profit of $204,000 and the increase in operating
expenses of $176,000 which was partially offset by the decrease in non-operating
expense of $16,000 and the decrease in provision for income taxes of $143,000.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2000, the Company had working capital of $9.0 million which
was comparable to working capital of $9.0 million as of December 31, 1999.
Increases in working capital were primarily attributable to net income earned
after adjustments for certain noncash expenses, primarily amortization of
trademark license and trademarks and depreciation and other amortization.
Decreases in working capital were primarily attributable to purchases of
treasury stock, repayments made in reduction of HBC's term loan and increases in
noncurrent assets.
Net cash used in operating activities increased to $1.4 million for the
three-months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to net cash provided by operating
activities of $47,000 for the comparable period in 1999. The increase in net
cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to the decrease in
net income and the increase in net cash used in connection with operating assets
and liabilities including the payment of accounts payable, accrued liabilities,
accrued compensation and the increase in accounts receivable and prepaid
expenses. During the three-months ended March 31, 2000, a portion of the
Company's cash reserves was also used for the acquisition of property and
equipment and the payment of income taxes. Increases in inventories, accounts
receivable, payment of payables and
9
accrued liabilities, acquisition of property and equipment, repayment of the
Company's short-term borrowings and payment of income taxes, as well as HBC's
acquisition and development plans are, and for the foreseeable future are,
expected to remain HBC's principle recurring use of cash and working capital
funds.
Net cash used in investing activities increased to $270,000 for the
three-months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to net cash used in investing
activities of $195,000 for the comparable period in 1999. The increase in net
cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to increased
purchases of property and equipment and increases in deposits and other assets.
Management, from time to time, considers the acquisition of capital equipment,
particularly coolers, merchandise display racks, vans and promotional vehicles,
and businesses compatible with the image of the Hansen's(R) brand, as well as
the development and introduction of new product lines. The Company may require
additional capital resources in the event of any such transaction, depending
upon the cash requirements relating thereto. Any such transaction will also be
subject to the terms and restrictions of HBC's credit facilities.
Net cash used in financing activities decreased to $188,000 for the
three-months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to net cash used in financing
activities of $1,582,000 for the comparable period in 1999. The decrease in net
cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to decreased
principal payments on long-term debt and cash received from short-term
borrowings and issuance of common stock. Such decrease was partially offset by
cash paid to repurchase shares of the Company's common stock.
As of March 31, 2000, approximately $1.2 million was outstanding under the
term loan.
HBC's revolving line of credit has been renewed by its bank until June 30,
2000. The effective borrowing rate under the revolving line of credit is prime
plus 1/4%. HBC anticipates that the revolving line of credit will be renewed
when it expires on June 30, 2000; however, there can be no assurance that it
will in fact be renewed or, if renewed, that the terms of such renewal will not
be disadvantageous to HBC and its business.
Management believes that cash generated from operations and the Company's
cash resources and amounts available under HBC's revolving line of credit, will
be sufficient to meet its operating cash requirements in the foreseeable future,
including purchase commitments for raw materials, debt servicing, expansion and
development needs as well as any purchases of capital assets or equipment and
repurchases of shares of the Company's common stock.
Year 2000 Compliance
Prior to January 1, 2000, the Company reviewed the readiness of its
computer systems and business practices for handling Year 2000 issues. These
issues involve systems that are date sensitive and may not be able to properly
process the transition from year 1999 to year 2000 and beyond, resulting in
miscalculations and software failures. Year 2000 compliance updates were
completed in the fourth quarter of 1999 and the Company's information technology
("IT") and non-information technology ("NIT") computer systems completed the
transition to the year 2000 without material issues or problems. No additional
10
expenditures to enable the Company to become Year 2000 compliant are currently
anticipated. The Company has been in contact with critical suppliers,
co-packers, customers, and other third parties to determine the extent to which
they may be vulnerable to Year 2000 issues. The Company cannot currently predict
any future effect of third parties' Year 2000 issues. However, the Company has
not been made aware of any matter which would materially impact the Company's
business from third parties.
European Monetary Union
Within Europe, The European Economic and Monetary Union (the "EMU")
introduced a new currency, the euro, on January 1, 1999. The new currency is in
response to the EMU's policy of economic convergence to harmonize trade policy,
eliminate business costs associated with currency exchange and to promote the
free flow of capital, goods and services.
On January 1, 1999, the participating countries adopted the euro as their
local currency, initially available for currency trading on currency exchanges
and noncash transactions such as banking. The existing local currencies, or
legacy currencies, will remain legal tender through January 1, 2002. Beginning
on January 1, 2002, euro-denominated bills and coins will be used for cash
transactions. For a period of up to six months from this date, both legacy
currencies and the euro will be legal tender. On or before July 1, 2002, the
participating countries will withdraw all legacy currencies and exclusively use
the euro.
The Company's transactions are recorded in U.S. Dollars and the Company
does not currently anticipate future transactions being recorded in the euro.
Based on the lack of transactions recorded in the euro, the Company does not
believe that the euro will have a material effect on the financial position,
results of operations or cash flows of the Company. In addition, the Company has
not incurred and does not expect to incur any significant costs from the
continued implementation of the euro, including any currency risk, which could
materially affect the Company's business, financial condition or results of
operations.
The Company has not experienced any significant operational disruptions to
date and does not currently expect the continued implementation of the euro to
cause any significant operational disruptions.
Forward Looking Statements
The Private Security Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act") provides a
safe harbor for forward looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company.
The Company and its representatives may from time to time make written or oral
forward looking statements, including statements contained in this report and
other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in reports to
shareholders and announcements. Certain statements made in this report,
including certain statements made in management's discussion and analysis, may
constitute forward looking statements (within the meaning of Section 27.A of the
Securities Act 1933 as amended and Section 21.E of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended) regarding the expectations of
11
management with respect to revenues, profitability, adequacy of funds from
operations and the Company's existing credit facility, among other things. All
statements which address operating performance, events or developments that
management expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future including
statements related to new products, volume growth, revenues, profitability,
adequacy of funds from operations, and/or the Company's existing credit
facility, earnings per share growth, statements expressing general optimism
about future operating results and non-historical Year 2000 information, are
forward looking statements within the meaning of the Act.
Management cautions that these statements are qualified by their terms
and/or important factors, many of which are outside the control of the Company
that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from the
statements made including, but not limited to, the following:
o Company's ability to generate sufficient cash flows to support capital
expansion plans and general operating activities;
o Changes in consumer preferences;
o Changes in demand that are weather related, particular in areas
outside of California;
o Competitive products and pricing pressures and the Company's ability to
gain or maintain share of sales in the marketplace as a result of actions
by competitors;
o The introduction of new products;
o Laws and regulations, and/or any changes therein, including changes in
accounting standards, taxation requirements (including tax rate changes,
new tax laws and revised tax law interpretations) and environmental laws as
well as the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act, the Dietary Supplement
Health and Education Act, and regulations made thereunder or in connection
therewith, especially those that may affect the way in which the Company's
products are marketed as well as laws and regulations or rules made or
enforced by the Food and Drug Administration;
o Changes in the cost and availability of raw materials and the ability to
maintain favorable supply arrangements and relationships and procure timely
and/or adequate production of all or any of the Company's products;
o The Company's ability to achieve earnings forecasts, which may be based on
projected volumes and sales of many product types and/or new products,
certain of which are more profitable than others. There can be no assurance
that the Company will achieve projected levels or mixes of product sales;
o The Company's ability to penetrate new markets;
o The marketing efforts of distributors of the Company's products, most of
which distribute products that are competitive with the products of the
Company;
o Unilateral decisions by distributors, grocery chains, specialty chain
stores, club stores and other customers to discontinue carrying all or any
of the Company's products that they are carrying at any time;
o The terms and/or availability of the Company's credit facilities and the
actions of its creditors;

programs;
o Adverse weather conditions, which could reduce demand for the
Company's products;

modify or upgrade computer programs in ways that adequately address Year
2000 issues. Given the numerous and significant uncertainties involved,

all relevant computer codes and imbedded chips and other unanticipated
difficulties or the ability of third parties to remediate their respective
systems.
