NOTES TO CONDENSED COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited Combined Consolidated Financial Statements have
been prepared with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and 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 only of
normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.
Per share data is determined based on the weighted average number of common
and common equivalent shares outstanding. The calculation when applicable
takes into account the shares that may be issued upon exercise of stock option
and warrants, reduced by the shares repurchased with the funds received from
their exercise.
ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Net sales of $5,980,000 and $11,360,000 for the three and six months ended
October 31, 1997 increased by 7.6% and .74%, respectively, from $5,556,000 and
$11,276,600, respectively in the comparable prior year periods. This was the
result in increases in all of the Company's core operations as well as
continued growth in its insurance subrogation division and its MVR service.
The Company's gross margin increased to 18.7% for the three months ended
October 31, 1997 and 19.2% for the six months ended October 31, 1997 as
compared to 17.2% and 18.2% respectively, in the comparable prior year
periods. These increases were attributable to increases in those areas which
yield a higher gross margin than that of its core business. Such departments
are insurance subrogation, MVR reporting and fees charged for specialized
reports available to all fleet customers.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months
ended October 31, 1997 decreased to $950,138 and $2,087,283 respectively, from
$1,416,968 and $2,665,091, respectively in the comparable prior year periods.
These 32.9% and 21.7% decreases were primarily attributable to a 29.9%
reduction in the Company`s workforce. Such a reduction had a corresponding
effect on the Company's other administrative expenses which resulted in a
decrease in across the board spending.
Interest expense decreased to $83,521 and $181,869 for the three and six
months ended October 31, 1997, respectively, from $131,141 and $237,236,
respectively, in the comparable prior year periods. This was primarily due to a
decrease in the amount owed to our finance company which was slightly offset
by the interest charged on a note payable to a former shareholder of the
Company.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities was $201,544 for the six months
ended October 31, 1997 as compared with $1,060,599 used in operations for the
comparable prior year period. This was primarily the result of an increase in
accounts payable and accounts receivable which was partially offset with
favorable net income of almost $800,000.
Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended October 31, 1997
totaled $35,368 as compared with $90,238 for the comparable prior year period.
Net cash flows used in investing activities decreased due to a reduction in
loans to officers.
Net cash used in financing activities was $99,403 for the six months ended
October 31, 1997 compared with $1,145,643 provided by operations for the
comparable prior period. This was primarily the result of the Company selling
Series A preferred stock and warrants which resulted in net proceeds of
$478,000. In addition there were increases in the bank overdraft as well
repayment of our note payable to the finance company.
The Company has negative working capital and has limited availability under
its existing credit facility and will need additional capital to have
sufficient liquidity and to meet its working capital needs for the foreseeable
future. It is the Company's intention to refinance its mortgage liability on a
short term basis. The Company expects to enter into a sale and leaseback
arrangement with respect to its property in the near future.
