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 Third Quarter of 2000, 77,200 shares of the Company's common stock
were reacquired as treasury stock.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The foregoing information for the periods ended October 1, 2000, and October 3,
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 Third Quarter 2000 and 1999
Net sales increased by $5,597,000 from $25,071,000 to $30,668,000 due
primarily to shipments of new products.
Gross margins as a percentage of sales increased from 32% to 33%
largely due to increased sales volume offset in part by increased material costs
and less favorable manufacturing efficiencies at the Company's manufacturing
facilities.
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.
Earnings before provision for income taxes decreased $376,000 from
$4,979,000 to $4,603,000. The provision for income taxes decreased from
$1,235,000 to $1,003,000 and the effective income tax rate decreased from 25% to
22%, as a result of decreased earnings subject to tax. Net earnings decreased
$144,000 from $3,744,000 to $3,600,000, or 4% and earnings per share increased
from $.51 to $.52.
The Company maintains adequate liquidity for all of its anticipated
capital requirements. As of quarter-end, there were no material capital
commitments outstanding.
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., the Company's largest customer, has announced a
strategic shift to marketing private label small appliances. As a consequence of
this shift, in 2001, Wal-Mart has indicated that they will replace three current
Presto products made in the Company's domestic plants with private label
imported items. Those products accounted for approximately 14% of the Company's
volume in 1999. The shift is not expected to have a material impact on fiscal
year 2000.
Comparison First Nine Months 2000 and 1999
Net sales increased by $4,131,000 from $65,443,000 to $69,574,000 due
primarily to new product shipments.
Gross margins as a percentage of sales decreased from 31% to 29% due to
increased material costs and less favorable manufacturing efficiencies at the
Company's manufacturing facilities.
The accrual for unexpended advertising costs discussed in the Third
Quarter comparison also applies to the first nine months.
Earnings before provision for income taxes decreased $1,412,000 from
$12,902,000 to $11,490,000. The provision for income taxes decreased from
$2,745,000 to $2,024,000 and the effective income tax rate decreased from 21% to
18%, as a result of decreased earnings subject to tax. Net earnings decreased
$691,000 from $10,157,000 to $9,466,000, or 7% and earnings per share decreased
from $1.38 to $1.34.
Item 3
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 effect 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.
