NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1998 AND 1997
NOTE 1 - INTERIM PERIODS
The unaudited information has been prepared on the same basis as the annual
financial statements and, in the opinion of the Company's management reflects
normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
information for the periods presented.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been omitted. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1997.
The results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and
1997 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year.
NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of Avani
International Group, Inc. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries. All material
intercompany balances and intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
NOTE 3 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130
("SFAS"), Comprehensive Income for the first quarter of fiscal year 1998.
Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that
includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not
been recognized in the calculation of net income. Comprehensive income (loss),
representing foreign currency translation adjustments for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 and 1997 was $18,640 and $(22,296).
NOTE 4 - MAJOR CUSTOMER AND SUPPLIER
The Company sells a substantial portion of its products to one customer. During
the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, sales to this customer
aggregated $18,720 and $139,781. At March 31, 1998 and 1997, amounts due from
this customer included in trade accounts receivable were $-0- and $-0-.
During the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company purchased
approximately 36% and 0% of its materials from one supplier. At March 31, 1998
and 1997 amounts due to that supplier were $-0- and $-0-. If the supplier ceased
doing business with the Company, management believes that other sources of
materials are available.
<PAGE>
Management's Discussion and Analysis.
The following discusses the financial results and position of the consolidated
accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries for the periods
indicated.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 compared with Three Months Ended March 31,
1997.
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1998 were $120,941 representing a
decrease of 19.15% from revenues of $149,594 for the comparable period in 1997.
This decrease was due to a reduction in sales to the Company's major customer in
Taiwan. The reduction is a result of the current economic difficulties in this
country. The decrease in sales to the major customer was offset partially by the
increase in sales of its five gallon bottles. Revenues for the 1998 period
consisted of $104,001 in water and supply sales (a decrease of 26.64% from
$141,776 for the prior period), $6,594 in cooler and equipment sales (an
increase of 106% from $3,201 for the prior period) and $10,346 in cooler rentals
(an increase of 124% from $4,617 for the prior period). Of the total revenue for
the 1998 period, $18,720 (or 18% of total water sales) represented sales to a
Taiwan distributor. This amount represents a decrease of 86.61% from sales of
$139,781 to the distributor for the prior period. Interest income earned on
investment of cash totaled $1,784 for the period in 1998 representing a decrease
of 73.53% from $6,738 for the prior period. The decrease is a result the
reduction of available cash which was used for increased operations during the
remaining 1997 period and first quarter of 1998.
Cost of sales for the 1998 period totaled $106,639 which represents a decrease
of 8.29% from $116,281 for the prior period. Cost of goods sold as a percentage
of sales increased by 4.13% from 66.33% to 70.64% due principally to increased
delivery expense related to sales of the five gallon bottles. Cost of sales
consisted of $85,429 in bottled water, supplies, coolers and related equipment
(a decrease of 13.91% from $99,227 for the prior period) and $21,210 in
depreciation (an increase of 21.17% from $17,504 for the prior period). Gross
profit for period was $14,302 compared with a gain of $33,313 for the prior
period. The decrease was due to reduced revenue for the 1998 period.
General and administrative expenses which includes administrative salaries and
overhead for the period totaled $253,757 which represents an increase of 58.96%
from $159,636 for the prior period. This increase is due to principally to
increased professional fees, printing and general office expense. Marketing
expenses totaled $169,199 for the 1998 period, representing an increase of
179.70% from $60,492 for the prior period. The increase in marketing expenses is
due principally to costs related to the Company's sponsorship of the Los Angeles
Marathon. Interest expense in connection with the Company's real estate totaled
<PAGE>
$10,925 for the 1998 period representing an increase of 16.16% from $9,405 for
the prior period. Net loss for the 1998 fiscal period was ($416,395) which
represents an increase of 119.81% from $189,438) for the prior period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since its inception through December 31, 1997, the Company has raised
approximately $4,399,600 from the private placement of its common stock (net of
offering costs of $449,429). The Company has used these proceeds to fund the
construction of its manufacturing facilities and its working capital
requirements. At the end of the first quarter of 1998, the Company raised
approximately $1,500,000 from the private placement of its common stock. In
addition, during the first quarter of 1998, the Company repurchased 400,000
shares of common stock at $1.00 per share from certain shareholders.
As of March 31, 1998, the Company has working capital in the amount of $882,956.
The Company is uncertain as to when it will achieve profitable operations. Until
such time, the Company intends to finance its ongoing operations through the
private placement of its capital stock or though debt financing. The Company has
no commitments for any such financing. No assurances can be given that the
Company will be successful in these endeavors. If the Company is unsuccessful in
these endeavors, such event will have a material adverse impact on Company.
Property, plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, totaled
$1,775,976 on March 31, 1998. Property, plant and equipment, net of accumulated
depreciation, totaled $1,752,806 on March 31, 1997. In connection with its real
estate properties, as of March 31, 1998, the Company has balloon mortgage
payments in the aggregate amount of 446,938.
