NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Note A - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial reporting. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. The results of operations for the nine
months ended March 31, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1998.
Note B - Debt
The Company has a $25,000,000 Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement with a
Bank. Under the agreement the Company has the option to convert borrowings
thereunder (classified as long-term debt) to a term note through October 31,
2000, the expiration date of the agreement. Payments under the term note, if
the conversion option is exercised, would be made quarterly commencing three
months following conversion until maturity of the term note on October 31,
2002. As of March 31, 1998, there was $700,000 in outstanding borrowings
under the Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement.
Note C - Dividends
Cash dividends per share are based on the number of shares outstanding at the
respective dates of declaration.
Note D - Earnings Per Share
In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Statement 128
replaced the previously reported primary and fully diluted earnings per share
with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings per share,
basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants,
and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share is very similar to the
previously reported fully diluted earnings per share.
Statement No. 128 has had no impact on the Company's calculation of average
shares outstanding or earnings per share for any of the years presented.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
- ------- -------------------------------------------------
Condition and Results of Operations
-----------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: Net sales for the Company's third quarter ended March
31, 1998, increased $1,000,000, or 3.6%, compared with net sales for the
third quarter of the prior year. Net sales for the nine month period ended
March 31, 1998, increased $3,635,000, or 4.8%, compared with the nine month
period of the prior year. The increase is attributable to new product
development and the steady growth of sales to Tier I suppliers in the
automotive industry.
Gross profit for the three month period ended March 31, 1998,
increased $227,000, or 5.2%, as compared with gross profit for the third
quarter of the prior year. Gross profit for the nine month period ended March
31, 1998, increased $644,000,
- 6 -
or 6.1%, as compared with the nine month period ended March 31, 1997. The
increase is attributable mainly to efficiencies related to additional volume
and an improved product mix.
Selling and administrative expenses increased $129,000, or 7.7%, for the
third quarter ended March 31, 1998, as compared with the third quarter of the
prior year. Selling and administrative expenses increased $469,000, or 10.8%,
as compared with the nine month period ended March 31, 1997. The increase is
mainly attributable to increases in compensation necessary to support the
Company's expanded sales volume.
DIVIDENDS: The Board of Directors, in February 1998, declared a $.10 per
share dividend paid April 1, 1998, to shareholders of record March 6, 1998.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES: Working capital increased by $1,605,000 from
$9,437,000 at June 30, 1997, to $11,042,000 at March 31, 1998.
At March 31, 1998, the Company had available $24,300,000 under its bank
credit agreement.
Capital expenditures for the nine month period ended March 31, 1998, were
approximately $5.1 million, and, for the year, are expected to approximate
$8.0 million, of which approximately $1.9 million has been committed as of
March 31, 1998.
There have been no material changes concerning environmental matters since
those reported in the Registrant's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended December 31, 1997. The Registrant was designated by the Federal
Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") as a Potentially Responsible
Party ("PRP") with respect to a site located in Springfield Township, Oakland
County, Michigan, and two other related dump sites located in Oakland County,
Michigan. The PRPs have reached agreement with the EPA on the terms of a
settlement which provides for the remediation of the Springfield Township
site. The PRPs, including the Registrant, have signed a Consent Decree
embodying the settlement terms and the EPA is in the process of having the
court review and enter the Consent Decree. Remediation costs for which the
Registrant may become liable are not expected to have a material effect on
the Registrant's financial statements. The Registrant has reached agreement
with the other PRPs involved with this site to settle all remaining
identified claims for a cost to the Registrant of approximately $173,000. The
Registrant previously paid $48,000 as its share of an interim response
action. The Company has fully accrued management's estimate of the exposure
to these environmental matters which includes the full cost outlined in the
Consent Decree with respect to the Springfield Township site. The Registrant
has also paid a total of $41,000 to settle cost reimbursement claims for this
site and the Rose Township Site that were asserted by the Michigan Department
of Natural Resources.
