2. Sale of Notes With Recourse
---------------------------
The Company at September 30, 1995 has a contingent liability of
$3,005,000 for customers' installment notes sold with recourse to the
Chemi-Trol Chemical Co. Profit Sharing Plan. The credit risk associated with
these notes is minimal as the Company retains a security interest in the
products sold on the installment basis.
3. Net income per common share
---------------------------
Net income per common share is based on the weighted average number
of shares outstanding of 2,004,930, after giving retroactive effect to the
10% stock dividends issued in March of 1994 and 1995. Shareholders'
rights, which may have a potentially dilutive effect, have been excluded from
the weighted average shares computation as conditions to the exercisability of
such rights have not been satisfied.
4. Commitments and Contingencies
-----------------------------
The Company, along with five other parties, has been designated in a
letter dated July 13, 1995, as a potentially responsible party by the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") at the County Line Landfill,
Fremont, Ohio, under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and
Liability Act of 1980, as amended. The EPA is requesting that the potentially
responsible parties initiate an Engineering Evaluation and Cost Analysis (EECA)
to evaluate what future response activities may be necessary at the site, which
was licensed and operated as a landfill from 1969 to 1984. The potentially
responsible parties have commenced participation in an engineering evaluation
at the site.
There is no volumetric ranking of parties available. Although the EPA
takes the position that any potentially responsible party is liable jointly and
severally for response costs, the Company is only one of many parties believed
to have usedthe site. There is also no information as to the extent and nature
of any necessary future response action at the site. During the period in
question the Company maintained various insurance policies and management is
exploring the availability of coverage of claims which may arise. Because of
the preliminary state of this matter and lack of information, it is not possible
to estimate the financial impact or range of probable financial impact on the
Company.
During the quarter ended September 30, 1995, the Company has expensed
$9,132, its portion of the expenses of the current engineering evaluation, but
has not reflected any amount or accrued expenses to cover any future cost of
additional evaluation or remediation relating to the site.

Third quarter ended September 30, 1995 vs. third quarter ended September 30,
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1994
- ----
Revenues for the third quarter ended September 30, 1995 totaled
$18,836,693, down less than one percent (.5%) from a year ago. Net income
declined to $390,528 or 20 cents per share, from the year-earlier quarter's
$532,955 or 26 cents per share.
Revenues in the Tank Division, which accounted for 44.4% of the
Company's revenues during the quarter, decreased slightly (.9%) from 1994
levels. Increased costs of raw materials and competitive pressures caused
margins to tighten and resulted in a 11.6% decrease in gross profit which was
largely responsible for the 9.5% decrease in operating profit of the Tank
Division.
Chemical Group revenues were down 10.4% from the prior year third
quarter as a result of scheduled downtime for equipment maintenance necessary to
change the types of materials being applied. However, operating profits during
the same period increased 32.0%. The increase in operating profit was the
result of 9.1% increase in gross profit coupled with a 30.2% decrease in selling
and general administrative expenses. Reductions in staff and realignment of
sales territories resulted in the lower quarterly sales expense.
-6-
7
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(continued)
Revenues for the Cal-Van Tools Division increased by 6.9% to record
levels during the third quarter; however, operating profits decreased by 92.3%.
Disproportionate increases of 10.4% in cost of sales, 43.0% in selling
expenses, and 10.6% in divisional general and administrative expenses combined
to decrease operating profits from the prior year levels. The increase in
selling expense was the result of an aggressive marketing program.
Cory Orchard & Turf increased net sales by 17.9%, while cost of sales
increased by only 13.8%. The lower than proportionate increase in cost of
sales coupled with decreases in selling and general and administrative expenses
of 9.6% and 4.0%, respectively, resulted in a $115,105 increase in operating
results from the prior year's depressed level.
For the Company as a whole net sales decreased by .5% while cost of
sales decreased at a lessor rate of .4% to decrease gross profit by $21,278 or
.9%. Selling expenses increased by 19.5% while general and administrative
expense decreased by 2.2%. Third quarter interest income decreased by 7.9%
while interest expense increased 19.9% over 1994 levels. The increase in
interest expense was the result of increased borrowings to meet short-term
working capital needs. The Company's effective tax rate decreased from 38.5%
in 1994 to 37.0% in 1995. Net income for the quarter decreased by 26.7% to
$390,528 or 20 cents per share from $532,955 or 26 cents per share.
First nine months of 1995 vs. first nine months of 1994
- -------------------------------------------------------
Nine months revenues for the Company increased 5.4% to record levels,
and net income increased by 8.5% to 70 cents per share compared to 64 cents per
share in 1994.
The Tank Division revenues increased by 6.1% while cost of sales
increased by 7.3% resulting in an increase in gross profit of less than 1%
(.3%). Increases in selling and general administrative expenses of 9.3% were
offset by 12.9% reductions in interest expense related to the financing
operations of the division. Operating profit for the first nine months was up
.2% over prior year levels.
Increases in revenues of 2.3% in the Contract Division and 5.2% in
CADCO, the material sales division, combined to increase Chemical Group
revenues by 2.8% during the nine months. Increased margins in the Contract
Division combined with a 12.5% reduction in selling and general administrative
expenses and resulted in operating profits increasing over 2 1/2 times 1994
nine month depressed levels to $742,687.
Cal-Van Tools nine month revenues increased by 4.9% to record levels,
while cost of sales increased by 5.7% over prior year levels. The
disproportionate increase in cost of sales coupled with increases in selling
and general and administrative expenses of 18.5% and 6.8%, respectively,
resulted in a decrease in operating profit of 32.4%.
Revenues of the Cory Orchard & Turf Division increased by 8.9% while
cost of sales decreased by 7.1%, resulting in a 20.2% increase in gross profit.
The increase in gross profit coupled with a 1.2% increase in selling and
general administrative expenses resulted in a 98.5% increase in operating
profits for the nine month period.
For the Company as a whole net sales increased by 5.5% while cost of
sales increased at the lessor rate of 5.0% to provide an increase in gross
margins and profits. Selling expense increased 10.1% largely as a result of
operations in the Cal-Van Tools Division. Nine month general and
administrative expenses increased 2.9% over 1994 levels. Interest expense
increased by 15.1% as the result of increased borrowings and higher rates
during the period. Led by profit increases in its Chemical Group

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(continued)
and Cory Orchard & Turf Division and sustained performance at its Tank
Division, net earnings climbed 8.5% to $1,401,128, or 70 cents per share, after
adjusting for the 10% stock dividend paid in March 1995. The effective tax
rate decreased from 39.2% in 1994 to 38.6% in 1995.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The working capital position of the Company remains strong. At
September 30, 1995, working capital was $13,986,138. This is an increase of
$200,132 over working capital of $13,786,006 at June 30, 1995 and in increase
of $2,767,875 over working capital of $11,218,263 at December 31, 1994. The
current ratio of the Company at September 30, 1995 was 1.6 to 1, unchanged from
June 30, 1995. The strength of this ratio indicates that the Company is in a
good position to meet its short-term obligations.
The Company's increase for the nine months in working capital was
largely provided from operations and short-term borrowings. Long-term
borrowings of $4,647,000 during the first nine months were used to finance
customers' installment notes receivable and sales type leases of steel tanks
produced by the Company's Tank Division. Outstanding borrowings at September
30, 1995 amount to $6,083,732 to fund the customers' installment notes
receivable and $2,147,204 to fund the sales type leases. In order to meet the
anticipated needs of customers, the Company has a commitment from an area bank
to provide long-term financing for tank notes extended to customers for an
additional $7 million during the current year, provided the combination of
short-term borrowings outstanding and current year long-term financing does not
exceed $12 million.
Due to the seasonal nature of the operations of the Company's Chemical
Group and the extension of payment terms in certain divisions, the Company has
an uneven cash flow pattern. Operations of the Chemical Group begin
approximately mid-April and run through November. There are substantial
startup expenses for this division associated with inventory build-up and the
purchase of equipment and supplies. A large portion of these expenses fall due
in the period of May through July. Since the majority of the contracts
performed by this division are for political subdivisions and the contracts
stretch over the entire summer season, a high percentage of the payments are not
recieved until mid-September and October. This places the Company in a tight
cash position from June through October, occasionally making it necessary for
the Company to borrow short-term funds. For this reason, the Company has
arranged a short-term borrowing limit of $12.75 million through local banks. At
September 30, 1995, the Company had short-term borrowings of $10,837,280 under
these lines of credit. Normally, beginning in November, the Company has excess
cash to repay these short-term borrowings and to invest on a short-term basis.
