ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash provided by operating activities was $10.4 million for the quarter ended
April 27, 1997, an increase of $7.3 million. The increase was principally due
to higher net earnings and improved cash and working capital management. Cash
and cash equivalents were $1.3 million at April 27, 1997. At April 27, 1997,
the Company had $34 million in borrowings outstanding under its foreign and
domestic bank credit facilities. The amount of borrowings available under the
Company's bank credit facilities was $33 million at April 27, 1997. The
Company's capitalization ratio was 50% at April 27, 1997 compared to 51.1% at
January 26, 1997.
Working capital was $48.8 million at April 27, 1997 compared to $49.2 million at
January 26, 1997. Capital expenditures were $5.6 million through April 27,
1997, $258,000 greater than last year. Capital expenditures for fiscal 1998 are
expected to approximate $28 million.
During the first quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company acquired certain uniform
rental routes in Detroit, Michigan for approximately $2.2 million in cash, and
notes payable. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. The operating
results of this acquisitions have been included in the consolidated results of
the Company since acquisition with an insignificant effect on revenues and net
earnings. The acquisition is expected to add approximately $2 million in annual
rental revenues.
On May 22, 1997 the Company declared a $.075 per share cash dividend payable on
June 24, 1997 to stockholders of record on June 6, 1997. The $.075 per share
dividend was 25% greater than the semi-annual dividend paid in the second
quarter of last year.
Management believes that cash generated from operations and its bank credit
facilities will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements for acquisitions and
capital expenditures in the foreseeable future.
Results of Operations
First quarter fiscal 1998 compared to first quarter fiscal 1997
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
Revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 were $68.9 million, an increase of
$5.0 million or 8% over the comparable period last year. Rental revenues for
the quarter were $54.0 million, an increase of $5.6 million or 12% higher than
last year. The increase in rental revenues was due to our fiscal 1997
acquisitions and internal growth within our network of existing locations.
Direct sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 were $14.9 million, a decrease
of $625,000 or 4% below the comparable period last year. The decrease in Direct
sales was due to fewer implementations of new image programs with national
accounts.
Depreciation and amortization was $4.2 million, an increase of $508,000 or 14%
over the comparable period last year. Amortization of intangible assets from
rental acquisitions and capital expenditures created the increase over last
year.
7
<PAGE>
Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 was $6.2 million, an
increase of $470,000 or 8% over the comparable period last year. Higher
operating contribution from Rental operations offset a slight decline in the
profitability of the Direct sales business and increased depreciation and
amortization.
Net earnings for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 were $3.0 million, an increase
of $238,000 or 9% over the comparable period last year. Improved operating
contribution from Rental operations offset decreased Direct sales' profitability
and increased depreciation, amortization and interest costs in comparison to
last year. Net earnings per common share for the first quarter of fiscal 1998
were $.31 per share, an increase of $.02 per share or 7% over the comparable
period last year.
