NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of CRSS Inc. ("CRSS") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, CRSS Capital, Inc. ("CRSS Capital"), collectively referred to herein as the "Company". The Combined Financial Statements include the accounts of the four less than majority-owned power and cogeneration limited partnerships in which CRSS Capital has equity interests ranging from 47.5 percent to 50 percent: Hopewell Cogeneration Limited Partnership ("Hopewell"), Naheola Cogeneration Limited Partnership ("Naheola"), Appomattox Cogeneration Limited Partnership ("Appomattox"), and Westwood Energy Properties Limited Partnership ("Westwood"), collectively referred to herein as the "Partnerships". In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the respective financial positions of the Company and the Partnerships as of March 31, 1995, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 and cash flows for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These unaudited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements included in the June 30, 1994 Annual Report to Shareholders. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Certain amounts in the prior period Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. NOTE 2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS As of June 30, 1994, the design, engineering and construction management segment was reflected as discontinued operations in conjunction with the Company's plan to dispose of this business. On July 21, 1994, the Company sold CRSS Architects, Inc. to Hellmuth, Obata & Kassabaum, Inc. ("HOK"). Total consideration amounted to $6.8 million, consisting of $4.8 million in cash at closing and a $2.0 million sharing of future net cash distributions from the Peace Shield project, of which $0.6 million was received during the nine months ended March 31, 1995. On July 29, 1994, the Company sold its engineering and construction management operations, consisting primarily of CRSS Constructors, Inc. and certain assets and liabilities of CRS Sirrine Engineers, Inc. to Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc. ("Jacobs"). Total consideration paid by Jacobs through March 31, 1995 was $37.8 million in cash, representing $14.0 million over the aggregate book value of the business acquired. Subsequent to March 31, 1995, the Company received an additional $0.4 million from Jacobs as a final purchase price adjustment. 7 10 Net assets from discontinued operations at March 31, 1995 consists primarily of the assets and liabilities of the retained power plant contracts (primarily receivables and payables), cash of $7.8 million held by CRSS's captive insurance company net of claims reserves of $6.3 million, NaTec's investment in the White River Nahcolite Minerals joint venture, deferred taxes, legal claims reserves and accrued discontinuance costs. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS GENERAL Electricity sales, steam sales and plant operations expense included in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations consist of the revenues and costs associated with the three Viking cogeneration facilities. These projects are wholly-owned by CRSS Capital. Equity income in partnerships includes CRSS Capital's interest in cogeneration facilities that are less than majority- owned and are accounted for using the equity method. These partnerships include the Hopewell, Naheola, Westwood, and Appomattox facilities. Operations and administrative service fees arise from management services provided by CRSS Capital to each project in which it maintains an ownership interest. Costs associated with providing these services are included in general and administrative expense. In addition to the components discussed previously, costs and expenses included general and administrative overhead costs as well as expenses related to the Company's project development efforts. CONTINUING OPERATIONS Consolidated earnings from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 1995 were $1.1 million, or $0.09 per share, compared to $1.1 million, or $0.08 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 1994. For the nine months ended March 31, 1995, consolidated earnings from continuing operations were $3.2 million, or $0.25 per share, compared to $2.5 million, or $0.19 per share for the nine months ended March 31, 1994. Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1995 of $7.3 million were relatively consistent with the corresponding period of the prior year. For the nine months ended March 31, 1995, total revenues were $21.8 million compared to $22.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 1994. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower operations and maintenance services provided by the Company to the Hopewell project during the current year. Plant operations costs of $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 1995 were relatively consistent with prior year costs for the same period. Higher wood fuel prices during the first quarter of the year resulted in an increase in plant operations costs of $0.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 1994. The higher wood fuel prices were attributable to difficulties in procuring adequate wood supplies during the period. General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 1995 were $2.0 million higher than the corresponding period of the prior year. The increase is due to the prior year amount including approximately $0.7 million of reimbursements of prior expenses related to a developmental project, a $0.7 million reduction to legal claims reserves due to favorable claims developments, and approximately $0.5 million of collections of a receivable that had 8 11 previously been written off. General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 of $7.6 million, were $2.8 million higher than the prior year amount of $4.7 million. In addition to the items noted above, the prior amount also included expense reimbursements of $1.6 million related to a developmental project received during the first quarter. Marketing and project development costs for the three months ended March 31,1995 were $0.8 million compared to $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1994. For the nine months ended March 31, 1995, marketing and project development costs were $1.8 million compared to $2.0 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. The decreases in current year costs are primarily due to expense reimbursements received related to a current developmental project. Non-operating income increased $0.2 million and $0.5 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1995, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year. The increases are due to higher cash balances available for investment in addition to higher rates of interest during the current year. Interest expense, which is primarily related to the long-term non-recourse debt used to finance the Viking cogeneration facilities, was $0.1 million lower for the quarter ended March 31, 1995, and $0.3 million lower for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 as compared to the prior year amounts. The decreases are due to reductions in the outstanding principal balances on the non-recourse debt. Minority interest in earnings for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1994 represents the minority interest in CRSS Capital previously owned by Paribas North America, Inc. ("Paribas"). The Company (via redemption by CRSS Capital) repurchased all of the common stock of CRSS Capital owned by Paribas on January 31, 1994 resulting in CRSS Capital becoming wholly-owned by the Company. EQUITY INCOME IN PARTNERSHIPS Equity income in partnerships reflects CRSS Capital's 50 percent interest in the Hopewell, Naheola, and Appomattox power and cogeneration facilities and the 47.5 percent interest in the Westwood facility. Equity income in partnerships increased from $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 1994 to $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 1995, an increase of $1.6 million, or 50 percent. The increase is primarily due to improved operating results at all four projects. Equity income in partnerships for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 was $14.3 million compared to $10.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 1994, representing an increase of $3.5 million, or 32 percent. In addition to the items noted above, the increase for the nine months ended March 31, 1995 is primarily due to the Westwood project, which experienced an unscheduled outage during the first quarter of the prior fiscal year. Also contributing to the current year increase was a retroactive rate adjustment at the Appomattox facility during the second quarter. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS Earnings from discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 1994 reflect the operating results of the design, engineering and construction management segment which was classified as discontinued operations as of June 30, 1994, in conjunction with the Company's plan to dispose of this business. As further discussed below under "Liquidity and Capital Resources", the Company sold its primary subsidiaries related to this business segment during the first quarter of fiscal year 1995. As part of the sale transactions, CRSS retained certain assets and liabilities, the majority of which relate to four power plant engineering, 9 12 procurement, and construction contracts which were substantially complete or in the later stages of completion. Additionally, the Company agreed to indemnify the purchasers against certain legal claims. During the three months ended September 30, 1994, the Company recorded an additional reserve of $9.5 million for the discontinued design, engineering and construction management segment related to changes in the estimates to complete these power plant contracts and for additional legal claims reserves. During the three months ended September 30, 1994, the Company also increased its provision for the estimated loss on disposal of its holdings in NaTec Resources, Inc. ("NaTec"), the discontinued acid rain/pollution control segment, by an additional $2.5 million. See further discussion under "Liquidity and Capital Resources". CONSOLIDATED RESULTS Consolidated net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 1995, were $1.1 million, or $0.09 per share versus net earnings of $1.3 million, or $0.10 per share for the corresponding period of the prior year. For the nine months ended March 31, 1995, consolidated net loss was $5.5 million, or $0.42 per share versus net earnings of $3.5 million, or $0.27 per share for the nine months ended March 31, 1994. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Working capital at March 31, 1995, totalled $30.4 million, which included $21.5 million in cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 1994, working capital was $37.5 million, which included cash and cash equivalents of $2.2 million. The $14.0 million increase in cash and cash equivalents for the period from June 30, 1994 to March 31, 1995 is primarily due to the sale of the discontinued design, engineering and construction management segment, as further discussed below, and distributions from the equity investment partnerships of $13.1 million. On July 21, 1994, the Company sold CRSS Architects, Inc. to Hellmuth, Obata & Kassabaum, Inc. ("HOK"). Total consideration amounted to $6.8 million, consisting of $4.8 million in cash at closing and a $2.0 million sharing of future net cash distributions from the Peace Shield project, of which $0.6 million was received during the nine months ended March 31, 1995. On July 29, 1994, the Company sold its engineering and construction management operations, consisting primarily of CRSS Constructors, Inc. and certain assets and liabilities of CRS Sirrine Engineers, Inc., to Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc. ("Jacobs"). Total consideration paid by Jacobs through March 31, 1995 was $37.8 million in cash, representing $14.0 million over the aggregate book value of the business acquired. Subsequent to March 31, 1995, the Company received an additional $0.4 million from Jacobs as a final purchase price adjustment. Cash payments related to the discontinued operations during the nine months ended March 31, 1995 of $22.2 million consisted of working capital requirements of the businesses prior to the sale, severance and other employee related costs, legal fees and settlements, costs related to the retained power plant engineering, procurement, and construction contracts, and closing costs. The Company maintains a letter of credit facility with two banks. The facility may be used to fund draws under existing outstanding letters of credit issued thereunder, which totalled $9.0 million at March 31, 1995. The credit facility, which is available through July 1, 1995 is subject to certain restrictive covenants including, among others, liquidity ratio, tangible net worth, and limitations on capital investments. 10 13 The Company's non-recourse project financing represents long-term non-recourse debt related to the Viking projects. The notes provide for interest payments at 11.15 percent per annum due in quarterly installments of principal and interest through the year 2009. The Company has entered into negotiations with the lenders for the restructuring of the debt. At March 31, 1995 cash totalling $0.6 million has been reserved for plant maintenance on the Viking projects in accordance with the terms of the non-recourse project financing. An additional $0.7 million is reserved for debt service. The Company has reached a settlement with James River Corporation regarding the call notice it received on its interest in the Naheola partnership. The project, which includes a chemical recovery boiler and cogeneration assets located at James River's Naheola Mill in Pennington, Alabama, has been in operation since March 1993. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company will receive $38.1 million, payable by May 19, 1995, in exchange for its partnership interest. NaTec has reached an agreement in principle (the "Acquisition Agreement") to sell its interest in White River Nahcolite Minerals, Limited Liability Company ("White River") to North American Chemical Company. Under the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, which is subject to various conditions, including approval by the NaTec shareholders, NaTec will receive $10.0 million, payable $6.0 million at closing with the balance to be paid with a non-interest bearing note payable in quarterly installments according to a formula based on sales of White River's production of sodium bicarbonate, over a period of five years. The note is secured by the assets of White River. The Board of Directors of NaTec has also approved the liquidation of NaTec, subject to shareholder approval. Proceeds from the sale of NaTec's investment in White River will be used to satisfy the claims of CRSS and other creditors, and CRSS as the holder of NaTec's preferred stock.
