ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Forward-Looking Statements
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION CONTAINS CERTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS,
GENERALLY IDENTIFIED BY PHRASES SUCH AS "THE REGISTRANT EXPECTS" OR "MANAGEMENT
BELIEVES" OR WORDS OF SIMILAR EFFECT. THE REGISTRANT WISHES TO CAUTION READERS
THAT CERTAIN IMPORTANT FACTORS SET FORTH WITHIN SUCH DISCUSSION, AMONG OTHERS,
IN SOME CASES HAVE AFFECTED, AND IN THE FUTURE COULD AFFECT, THE REGISTRANT'S
ACTUAL RESULTS AND COULD CAUSE THE REGISTRANT'S ACTUAL RESULTS FOR 1997 AND
BEYOND TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE EXPRESSED IN ANY FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS MADE HEREIN.
ALSO, CERTAIN FACTORS WHICH COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER FROM
THOSE CONTAINED IN ANY SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE CONTAINED IN THE
REGISTRANT'S ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
1996 UNDER THE HEADING "FORWARD-LOOKING AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS," AND ARE
HEREBY INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE.
Results of Operations
For the three months ended March 31, 1997, the Company generated net income
after tax of $129,618 or $0.019 per share (on a fully diluted basis) as compared
to net income of $530,690 or $0.077 per share of common stock, for the same
period last year.
The Company's net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were
$5,961,288 as compared to $7,473,167 for the same period for 1996. All the sales
were from shipments of resin and formaldehyde by the Registrant's wholly owned
subsidiary, Spurlock Adhesives, Inc. The 25.36% decrease in sales as compared to
the same period in 1996 resulted in part from lower average selling prices
related to lower costs of underlying raw materials, and reduced product volume
shipments for the period due to price cutting by certain competitors in the face
of reduced market demand generally. In response, the Registrant effected
downward adjustments in its product prices in February, 1997, and by the end of
the quarter shipments had increased commensurate with first quarter 1996.
Cost of sales for the first quarter were $4,512,915 or 75.7% of net sales as
compared to $5,471,222 or 73.2% for the same period in 1996. The increase in
cost of sales sold as a percentage of net sales is primarily a result of reduced
sales. The gross margin decreased to 24.3% from 26.75% for the prior year
period, reflecting the above-described competitive pressures in the marketplace
which management believes will be short term in nature.
Operating expenses (sales, general & administrative expenses) for the first
quarter were $1,182,082 or 19.8% of net sales as compared to $1,017,729 or 13.6%
of net sales for the same period in 1996. This increase is attributable to
higher depreciation due to the purchase by the Registrant of the formaldehyde
plant located in Waverly, Virginia, which plant was subject to an operating
lease during the first quarter of 1996. The large percentage change is due to
lower sales.
Interest expense was $70,681 or 1.2% of net sales as compared to $109,337 or
1.5% of net sales in first quarter 1996. Although average borrowings under the
Registrant's line of credit were somewhat lower in the first quarter of 1997
versus the comparable period in 1996, total average outstandings were
approximately $1,000,000 higher due to additional term borrowings relating to
the Registrant's purchase of the Waverly, Virginia formaldehyde plant. However,
significantly reduced borrowing rates under the new credit facilities entered
into by the Registrant in July 1996 resulted in significantly lower interest
expense overall.
The Company accrues for income taxes at an effective rate of 34% inclusive of
the deduction for state income tax. The tax accrual for the first quarter of
1997 is $66,773 as compared to $353,793 for the same period last year, owing to
reduced taxable income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Working Capital
At March 31, 1997 working capital was ($3,004,779), down $824,642 from the prior
year's period. Increased product shipments and orders at quarter end caused
accounts receivable and inventories to increase $172,231 and $151,718,
respectively, from December 31, 1996. Likewise, accounts payable and accrued
expenses increased by $216,510 and borrowings under the line of credit increased
by $217,627, effectively funding the buildup of receivables and inventory.
Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities was $378,618 and $674,640 for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The reduced cash flow
from operations during the 1997 period resulted from lower net income.
Depreciation accounted for $249,000 of such cash flow, a substantial increase
from the $143,950 in the 1996 period, as a result of increased depreciation
expense relating to the purchase of the Waverly formaldehyde plant.
Cash from operations was supplemented by a net increase in liabilities of
$309,856, comprised primarily of increases in accounts payable and accrued
expenses, deferred tax liability and other liabilities. Cash was invested in the
above-described increase in accounts receivable and inventories, and an increase
in fixed assets of approximately $400,000.
Liquidity
As previously reported, in July 1996 the Registrant entered into a new
$3,500,000 revolving credit facility with a new lender, which facility matures
in July 1999. On March 31, 1997, outstanding loans under the facility totalled
$1,638,428, which amount represented 92% of the total amount available at such
time based on the levels of accounts receivable and inventory on which borrowing
availability is based. The credit facility provides the Registrant with an
important source of liquidity in addition to cash generated from operations.
Management believes that cash generated from operations, together with amounts
available under the revolving credit facility, will be sufficient to meet the
Registrant's anticipated working capital and liquidity requirements during 1997
and 1998.
New York Expansion
In the fourth quarter of 1996, the Registrant entered a contract of sale with
Niagara Mohawk Power Company for the purchase of certain real property and
facilities near Albany, New York, to construct thereon certain manufacturing
facilities for the production of formaldehyde and resins. In April 1997, the
Registrant announced that it had located a more favorable site in the Moreau
Industrial Park in the town of Moreau, Saratoga County, New York. Management
determined that the Moreau site met all of its requirements for operations, was
more cost-effective and would better meet long-term business objectives. The
Registrant allowed the Niagara Mohawk purchase contract to expire without
material cost to the Registrant. The total estimated cost of the proposed Moreau
facility would approximate $8,300,000. Management believes that financing for
the project, adequate in amount and on reasonable terms, can be obtained by the
Registrant, via a conventional loan or funding from industrial revenue bonds.
The Registrant has made application to the local planning board, and further
applications will need to be made with, and approval received from, state
environmental authorities prior to the initiation of construction. Although
management believes the complex can begin operations in early 1998, the
Registrant is unable to predict at this time, when and if, the necessary
approvals for the New York project can be obtained.
