SIRCO INTERNATIONAL CORP. Notes To Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) Note 1-Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six month period ended May 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended November 30, 1996. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 1995. Note 2-Financing Arrangements The Company has an agreement with a factor pursuant to which the Company sells its accounts receivable to the factor on a pre-approved non-recourse basis. Under the terms of the agreement, the factor advances funds to the Company on the basis of invoice amounts. Interest on such advances is 1.75% per annum above the prime rate. Additionally, the factor provides inventory financing to the Company based on an advance rate of up to 40% of the inventory value. At May 31, 1996, the factor had advanced the Company approximately $1,800,000 for inventory financing. Interest on such advances is 1.75% per annum above the prime rate. As of May 31, 1996, the prime rate was 8.25%. The Company also pays a factoring commission of .75% of each invoice amount, subject to a minimum of $96,000 per annum. On May 28, 1996, the Company's Canadian subsidiary renegotiated its financing agreement with a Canadian bank. The agreement provides for a revolving loan in the amount of approximately $876,000, with interest payable monthly at 1.25% above the Canadian prime rate. The proceeds of this loan are utilized by the Canadian subsidiary for purchasing inventory and financing day-to-day operations. As of May 31, 1996, there were no borrowings under this facility and the Canadian subsidiary had outstanding letters of credit totalling approximately $402,000. Under the renegotiated financing agreement, the bank also has outstanding two term loans to the Canadian subsidiary in amounts of approximately $353,000 and $12,000 at May 31, 1996, with interest payable monthly at 2.00% and 1.50%, respectively, above the Canadian prime rate. As of May 31, 1996, the Canadian prime rate was 6.50%. Substantially all of the assets of the Canadian subsidiary have been pledged as security for the revolving line of credit and the term loans. Additionally, the Company has agreed to subordinate its loan to its Canadian subsidiary to the amounts payable to the bank. However, subject to on-going compliance with all other covenants of the agreement, the subordinated loan may be repaid at $22,000 per month starting in July 1996. At May 31, 1996, the subordinated loan amounted to approximately $227,000. In March 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with Yashiro Co., Inc. ("Yashiro"), pursuant to which Yashiro agreed to issue or cause to be issued, until March 20, 1997, unsecured trade letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to the lesser of $1,200,000 or 35% of the book value of the Company's inventory. Yashiro charges the Company a handling fee of 3% for each letter of credit that is opened. Interest is payable to Yashiro monthly at 2% above the prime rate. At May 31, 1996, the Company had direct borrowings under the facility of approximately $421,000 and outstanding letters of credit amounting to approximately $352,000. Note 3-Net Income (Loss) per Share Net income (loss) per share of common stock is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of stock options. Item 2. Management's Analysis and Discussion Of Financial Condition and Results Of Operations Three and Six Months Ended May 31, 1996 vs May 31, 1995 Results of Operations Net sales for the three and six months ended May 31, 1996 increased by approximately $2,357,000 and $4,109,000, respectively, to approximately $7,638,000 for the three months ended May 31, 1996 and $14,216,000 for the six months ended May 31, 1996, as compared to approximately $5,281,000 and $10,107,000, respectively, reported for the comparable periods in 1995. Net sales for the Company's Luggage and Backpack Divisions increased by approximately $1,973,000 and $3,921,000 for the three and six months ended May 31, 1996, primarily due to significant increases in the net sales of FILA products as discussed below. Net sales for the Company's Canadian subsidiary increased by approximately $772,000 and $1,624,000 for the three and six months ended May 31, 1996, due primarily to the continued strong sales of its Atlantic luggage line. Included in the Company's net sales for the three and six months ended May 31, 1995 were approximately $388,000 and $1,436,000 in net sales attributable to the Company's former Handbag Division, which was sold in March 1995. The Company's overall gross profit for the three and six months ended May 31, 1996 increased to approximately $1,956,000 and $3,858,000, respectively, from approximately $1,444,000 and $2,447,000, respectively, reported for the comparable periods of 1995. The gross profit for the Company's Luggage and Backpack Divisions and Canadian subsidiary increased to approximately $1,956,000 and $3,858,000, respectively, from approximately $1,334,000 and $2,260,000, respectively, reported for the comparable periods of 1995. Gross profit increases resulted primarily from the increased net sales of the Company licensed products, which generally have higher profit margins than the Company's other product lines. Included in the Company's gross profit for the three and six months ended May 31, 1995 was approximately $109,000 and $186,000 attributable to the Company's former Handbag Division. After extensive negotiations with FILA Sport S.P.A. ("FILA") in February 1996, the Company and FILA entered into an agreement pursuant to which the Company ceased shipping FILA product under the FILA license on June 30, 1996, subject to certain rights with respect to liquidating the remaining inventory. Net sales of the FILA product for the three and six months ended May 31, 1996 were approximately $3,056,000 and $5,734,000, respectively, as compared to approximately $729,000 and $1,219,000, respectively, reported for the comparable periods of 1995. The Company shipped approximately $6,700,000 of FILA product in fiscal 1996 prior to the June 30, 1996 cut off date. The Company believes that the loss of the FILA trademark may have an adverse effect on the Company's results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 1996. However, the Company expects that a significant portion of the net sales of FILA products that would have been realized by the Company during the remaining term of the FILA license will be replaced by sales of other licensed products incorporating the recently-licensed "Perry Ellis", "Skechers", "Gold's Gym", and "Generra" names, symbols and logos. Future net sales could be negatively impacted if sales from new licenses or increases in sales under existing licenses do not replace the sales of FILA products. Selling, warehouse, and general and administrative expenses increased approximately $40,000, to approximately $1,517,000 for the three months ended May 31, 1996 from approximately $1,477,000 for the three months ended May 31,1995 and decreased approximately $110,000, to approximately $2,985,000 for the six months ended May 31, 1996 from approximately $3,095,000 for the six months ended May 31, 1995. Selling, warehouse, and general and administrative expenses for the Company's Luggage and Backpack Divisions and Canadian subsidiary increased approximately $155,000 and $575,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended May 31, 1996. These increases in expenses are due primarily to the corresponding increases in the Company's sales for these periods. The major components of the increases are: 1) increased commission expenses, 2) increased warehousing costs, 3) increased salary expense, and 4) increased advertising costs. Included in the Company's expenses reported for the three and six months ended May 31, 1995 were approximately $115,000 and $685,000, respectively, of expenses attributable to the Company's former Handbag Division. Included in the Company's operating results for the three and six months ended May 31, 1995 was a one-time charge of approximately $424,000 attributable to the loss on the sale of the Company's former Handbag Division in March 1995 to Bueno of California, Inc., an affiliate of the Yashiro Company, Inc., the Company's former parent. Interest expense decreased for the three and six months ended May 31, 1996 by approximately $32,000 and $57,000, respectively, from the comparable periods in 1995. This decrease is attributable to lower borrowings and lower interest rates. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $231,000, and working capital of approximately $1,561,000, at May 31, 1996. During the first half of 1996, the Company's operating activities provided approximately $765,000 in cash flow as compared to $130,000 in cash flow provided in the comparable period of the prior year. Investing activities in the six months ended May 31, 1996, and May 31, 1995 did not significantly impact the Company's cash flows. In 1996, investing activities used approximately $45,000 of net cash for the purchase of property and equipment. In 1995, investing activities provided approximately $26,000 of net cash from the sale of property and equipment. Financing activities for the six months ended May 31, 1996 used approximately $666,000 of cash. Approximately $735,000 of cash was used to repay short-term debt, and approximately $181,000 of cash was used to repay long-term debt. During the six months ended May 31, 1996, the Company received $250,000 of proceeds from the issuance of common stock. Financing activities in the six months ended May 31, 1995 used approximately $476,000 of cash. Approximately $732,000 was used to repay short-term debt, and approximately $44,000 was used to repay long-term debt. Other financing activities during the six months ended May 31, 1995, included a $300,000 accrual of non-current expenses. The Company has an agreement with a factor pursuant to which the Company sells its accounts receivable to the factor on a pre-approved non-recourse basis. Under the terms of the agreement, the factor advances funds to the Company on the basis of invoice amounts. Interest on such advances is 1.75% per annum above the prime rate. Additionally, the factor provides inventory financing to the Company based on an advance rate of up to 40% of the inventory value. At May 31, 1996, the factor had advanced the Company approximately $1,800,000 for inventory financing. Interest on such advances is 1.75% per annum above the prime rate. As of May 31, 1996, the prime rate was 8.25%. The Company also pays a factoring commission of .75% of each invoice amount, subject to a minimum of $96,000 per annum. On May 28, 1996, the Company's Canadian subsidiary renegotiated its financing agreement with a Canadian bank. The agreement provides for a revolving loan in the amount of approximately $876,000, with interest payable monthly at 1.25% above the Canadian prime rate. The proceeds of this loan are utilized by the Canadian subsidiary for purchasing inventory and financing day-to-day operations. As of May 31, 1996, their were no borrowings under this facility and the Canadian subsidiary had outstanding letters of credit totalling approximately $402,000. Under the renegotiated financing agreement, the bank also has outstanding two term loans to the Canadian subsidiary in amounts of approximately $353,000 and $12,000 at May 31, 1996, with interest payable monthly at 2.00% and 1.50%, respectively, above the Canadian prime rate. As of May 31, 1996, the Canadian prime rate was 6.50%. Substantially all of the assets of the Canadian subsidiary have been pledged as security for the revolving line of credit and the term loans. Additionally, the Company has agreed to subordinate its loan to its Canadian subsidiary to the amounts payable to the bank. However, subject to on-going compliance with all other covenants of the agreement, the subordinated loan may be repaid at $22,000 per month starting in July 1996. At May 31, 1996, the subordinated loan amounted to approximately $227,000. In March 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with Yashiro Co., Inc. ("Yashiro"), pursuant to which Yashiro agreed to issue or cause to be issued, until March 20, 1997, unsecured trade letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to the lesser of $1,200,000 or 35% of the book value of the Company's inventory. Yashiro charges the Company a handling fee of 3% for each letter of credit that is opened. Interest is payable to Yashiro monthly at 2% above the prime rate. At May 31, 1996, the Company had direct borrowings under the facility of approximately $421,000 and outstanding letters of credit amounting to approximately $352,000. There were approximately $48,000 in capital expenditures during the first six months of 1996. The Company presently anticipates that it will expend an additional $200,000 for capital improvements during fiscal 1996. A substantial portion of capital expenditures are related to the Company's new showroom in New York City. Management believes that its cash and cash equivalents, lines of credit, factoring of accounts receivable and cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient to meet its liquidity and capital requirements for the next twelve months.
