NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Seaman Furniture Company, Inc. and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments
necessary to present fairly the results of consolidated operations for
each of the three and nine month periods ended January 31, 1997 and
January 31, 1996; the financial position at January 31, 1997 and the
cash flows for the nine month periods ended January 31, 1997 and
January 31, 1996. Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring
items. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes for the years ended April 30, 1996 and 1995
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
The interim financial results are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be expected for the full year.
2. NET INCOME PER SHARE
Net income per share is based on the weighted average number
of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.
Employee and director stock options are considered to be Common Stock
equivalents; accordingly, 461,276 Common Stock equivalent shares have
been included in the computation for the three and nine month periods
ended January 31, 1997 using the treasury stock method.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended January 31, 1997 compared to Three Months Ended
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
January 31, 1996
- ----------------
Net sales for the three months ended January 31, 1997 of $63.3
million increased by $7.0 million (12.4%) compared to net sales for the
three months ended January 31, 1996. Comparable store sales were $61.0
million and $56.3 million for the three months ended January 31, 1997
and 1996 respectively, an increase of $4.8 million (8.5%). Management
believes the increase in comparable store sales is primarily
attributable to the prior year's severe winter weather conditions.
Net finance charge income decreased from $3.5 million for the
three months ended January 31, 1996 to $3.0 million for the three
months ended January 31, 1997. This decrease is attributed to an
increased amount of deferred interest credit promotions and a decrease
in the customer accounts receivable balance.
As a result of the foregoing, total revenues for the three
months ended January 31, 1997 were $66.3 million, an increase of $6.5
million (10.9%) from the comparable prior year period.
Cost of sales, including buying and occupancy costs, increased
$3.8 million (9.9%) primarily due to the additional sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1.2
million (5.9%) principally due to the costs, including advertising and
payroll, of operating six additional stores that opened in the January
1996 quarter.
As a result of the foregoing, income from operations was $2.2
million for the three months ended January 31, 1997 compared to
$749,000 for the three months ended January 31, 1996, an increase of
approximately $1.5 million (199.2%).
Net interest expense of $543,000 for the three months ended
January 31, 1997 increased $316,000 (139.2%) from $227,000 for the
three months ended January 31, 1996. This is primarily attributed to
decreased interest income due to the Company's lower cash balance and
to increased interest expense associated with the revolving credit line
entered into in April 1996 and increased capital lease interest
expense.
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended
January 31, 1997, is $730,000 compared to $187,000 for the three months
ended January 31, 1996. The increase is primarily related to the
increase in income before taxes.
Page 7 of 13
As a result of the foregoing, the Company's net income for the
three months ended January 31, 1997 was $968,000 an increase of
$633,000 (189%) compared to $335,000 for the three months ended January
31, 1996.
NINE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 1997 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
JANUARY 31, 1996
- ----------------
Net sales for the nine months ended January 31, 1997 of $189.7
million increased $17.9 million (10.5%) compared to net sales for the
nine months ended January 31, 1996. The increase in net sales is
attributed to the Company opening new stores. Comparable store sales
were $172.2 million and $171.7 million for the nine months ended
January 31, 1997 and 1996 respectively, an increase of $500,000 (.3%).
Net finance charge income decreased from $10.9 million for the
nine months ended January 31, 1996 to $9.5 million for the nine months
ended January 31, 1997. This decrease is attributed to an increased
amount of deferred interest credit promotions and a decrease in the
customer accounts receivable balance.
As a result of the foregoing, total revenues for the nine
months ended January 31, 1997 were $199.2 million, an increase of $16.6
million (9.1%) over the comparable prior year period.
Cost of sales, including buying and occupancy costs, increased
$13.1 million (11.5%) principally due to the costs associated with the
increased sales volume, and the warehousing and occupancy costs
associated with opening six new stores during the January 1996 quarter.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $3.9
million (6.2%) principally due to the costs, including advertising and
payroll, of operating six additional stores.
As a result of the foregoing, income from operations was $5.9
million for the nine months ended January 31, 1997 compared to $6.3
million for the nine months ended January 31, 1996, a decrease of 6.2%.
Net interest expense of $1.6 million for the nine months ended
January 31, 1997, increased $1.1 million from $462,000 for the nine
months ended January 31, 1996. This increase is attributed to decreased
interest income due to the Company's lower cash balance and to
increased interest expense associated with the revolving credit line
entered into in April 1996 and increased capital lease interest
expense.
Page 8 of 13
As a result of the foregoing, the Company's net income for the
nine months ended January 31, 1997 was approximately $2.5 million, a
decrease of $901,000 (26.7%) compared to $3.4 million for the nine
months ended January 31, 1996.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------
At January 31, 1997 the Company had working capital of $65.7
million, including cash and cash equivalents of $1.3 million. The
Company's principal sources of liquidity are earnings before income
taxes, depreciation and amortization and borrowings under the $40
million Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the "Loan Agreement")
with The Bank of New York Commercial Corporation and Fleet Bank N.A.
(as successor by merger to Nat West Bank N.A.), as co-lenders. The
Company's principal uses of cash are working capital needs, capital
expenditures and debt service obligations, including capitalized lease
costs.
The Company's working capital decreased from $66.9 million at
April 30, 1996 to $65.7 million at January 31, 1997. Cash and cash
equivalents declined from $3.4 million at April 30, 1996 to $1.3
million at January 31, 1997. As of January 31, 1997 the Company had
stockholder's equity of $104 million. The Company's largest asset at
such date was accounts receivable of $68.4 million (net of bad debt
reserves). At January 31, 1997, $783,049 was outstanding under the Loan
Agreement, including letters of credit of approximately $762,000. In
addition at January 31, 1997 the Company had $13.2 million in other
long term debt, consisting of a mortgage in connection with its Central
Islip, New York warehouse facility (the "Central Islip Warehouse") and
capitalized lease obligations.
On November 8, 1996, the Company prepaid an industrial revenue
Bond, which had an outstanding principal balance of approximately $3.7
million, with proceeds received from Fleet Bank N.A. in the amount of
approximately $6.2 million pursuant to a Mortgage Note ("Note") issued
by the Company to Fleet. The Note, payable monthly and maturing on
November 8, 2003, is secured by a Mortgage, Security Agreement and
Assignment of Lease Rights covering the Company's Central Islip
Warehouse. The balance of the proceeds was used to reduce the
outstanding borrowing under the Loan Agreement.
Capital expenditures were $2.2 million for the nine months
ended January 31, 1997. These expenditures were primarily related to
relocating one store, renovation of existing stores and the development
of a radio frequency warehouse inventory control system. The Company
expects to spend approximately $4 million in capital expenditures
during the current fiscal year ending April 30, 1997, the majority of
which will be related to the renovation and opening of new stores. The
Company expects that the borrowing under the Loan Agreement together
with cash from operations will be sufficient to meet the Company's
planned capital expenditures.
