NATIONAL PRESTO INDUSTRIES, INC., AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE A - EARNINGS PER SHARE The Company's basic net earnings per share amounts have been computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares. The Company's diluted net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares and common share equivalents relating to stock options, when dilutive. NOTE B - TREASURY STOCK During the First Quarter of 2000, 157,800 shares of the Company's common stock were reacquired as treasury stock. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The foregoing information for the periods ended April 2, 2000, and April 4, 1999, is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management of the Registrant, it reflects all the adjustments, which were of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1999, is summarized from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all the disclosures contained therein and should be read in conjunction with the 1999 Annual Report. Interim results for the period are not indicative of those for the year. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Forward looking statements in this Quarterly Report are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. There are certain important factors that could cause results to differ materially from historical results. Investors are cautioned that all forward looking statements involve risks and uncertainty. The factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: consumer spending and debt levels; interest rates; continuity of relationships with and purchases by major customers; product mix; competitive pressure on sales and pricing, and increases in material or production cost which cannot be recouped in product pricing. Additional information concerning those and other factors is contained in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including but not limited to the Form 10-K, copies of which are available from the Company without charge. Comparison First Quarter 2000 and 1999 Net sales decreased by $3,103,000 from $21,610,000 to $18,507,000 due primarily to decreased unit volume. Gross margins as a percentage of sales decreased from 29% to 25% due largely to increased material costs. The Company accrues unexpended advertising costs budgeted for the year against each quarter's sales. Major advertising commitments are incurred in advance of the expenditures, and the timing of sales through dealers and distributors to the ultimate customer does not permit specific identification of the customers' purchase to the actual time an advertisement appears. Advertising charges included in selling expense in each quarter represent that percentage of the annual advertising budget associated with that quarter's shipments. Revisions to this budget result in periodic changes to the accrued liability for committed advertising expenditures. Other income, principally interest, increased from the 1999 level primarily as a result of a higher rate of return on invested funds in the Company's portfolio of short-term marketable securities. Earnings before provision for income taxes decreased $462,000 from $4,040,000 to $3,578,000. The provision for income taxes decreased from $760,000 to $560,000 and the effective income tax rate decreased from 19% to 16%, as a result of decreased earnings subject to tax. Net earnings decreased $262,000 from $3,280,000 to $3,018,000, or 8% and earnings per share decreased from $.45 to $.42. The Company maintains adequate liquidity for all of its anticipated capital requirements. As of quarter-end, there were no material capital commitments outstanding. Item 7A. QUANTITIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company's interest income is affected by changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates. Changes in U.S. interest rates could affect the interest earned on the Company's cash equivalents and investments. Currently, changes in U.S. interest rates would not have a material affect on the interest earned on the Company's cash equivalents and investments, as these investments are primarily municipal bonds. A majority of these bonds earn a fixed rate of interest while the remaining portion earn interest at a variable rate. The Company uses sensitivity analysis to determine it's exposure to changes in interest rates. The Company does not anticipate that exposure to interest rate market risk will have a material impact on the Company due to the nature of the Company's investments.
