NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
January 31, 1995
(A) The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions
to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended
January 31, 1995 and 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for a full fiscal year. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
July 31, 1994.
(B) Primary per share data are based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding of 10,423,000 and 10,462,000, respectively,
for the three months ended January 31, 1995 and 1994 and 10,423,000
and 10,545,000, respectively for the six months ended January 31,
1995 and 1994. The three and six month periods ended January 31, 1994
have been retroactively adjusted for a 3% stock dividend distributed in
July 1994. Assumed conversion of debentures would have had an anti-
dilutive effect on net income per share for the three and six months
ended January 31, 1995.
(C) Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or
market. The components of inventory consist of the following:
January 31, July 31,
1995 1994
Finished goods $30,980,644 $24,684,609
Raw materials 26,912,976 16,889,428
Supplies 3,507,040 3,969,011
$61,400,660 $45,543,048
(D) Under the Company's amended and restated revolving credit and term loan
agreements (collectively the "Loan Agreements") with National
Westminster Bank USA and Chemical Bank (the "Banks"), the Company may,
from time to time, borrow funds from the Banks, provided that the total
principal amount of all such loans outstanding at any time may not
exceed $40,000,000. Interest (9% at January 31, 1995) on all such
loans is equal to prime rate, subject to adjustment based on the level
of loans outstanding. Outstanding borrowings under the Loan Agreements
may not exceed certain percentages of and are collateralized by, among
other things, the trade accounts receivable and inventories, and
substantially all of the machinery and equipment and real estate of the
Company and its subsidiaries. All loans made under the term loan
agreement ($10,000,000 at January 31, 1995) are to be repaid in
December 1997. Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreements, the
Company and its subsidiaries, among other things, must maintain a
minimum net worth and meet ratio tests for liabilities to net worth
and coverage of fixed charges and interest, all as defined. The Loan
Agreements also provide, among other things, for restrictions on
dividends (except for stock dividends) and require repayment of
outstanding loans with excess cash flow, as defined.
8 of 12
(E) Prepaid expenses and other on the unaudited condensed consolidated
balance sheets includes deferred income taxes of $1,766,000.
(F) In October 1993, the Company and Gourmet Coffees of America, Inc.
("GCA") entered into an agreement to sell Hillside Coffee of
California, Inc. ("Hillside") to GCA. Pursuant to the agreement,
which was consummated on November 19, 1993 (the second quarter of
fiscal 1994), the Company received (a) $38,500,000 in cash and (b)
shares of stock representing approximately one-half of one percent
of the equity of GCA. The operating profits of Hillside, before
intercompany charges, for the period from August 1, 1993 to November
19, 1993, included in the results of operations, in thousands, are as
follows:
Net sales $ 9,557
Costs and expenses:
Cost of sales 4,169
Selling, general and
administrative expenses 3,566

Operating profit $ 1,822

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Operations
The following is Management's discussion and analysis of certain
significant factors that have affected the Company's operations
during the periods included in the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated statements of operations.
In October 1993, the Company and Gourmet Coffees of America, Inc.
("GCA") entered into an agreement to sell Hillside Coffee of
California, Inc. ("Hillside") to GCA. Pursuant to the agreement,
which was consummated on November 19, 1993 (the second quarter of
fiscal 1994), the Company received (a) $38,500,000 in cash and (b)
shares of stock representing approximately one-half of one percent
of the equity of GCA.
Net sales increased $29,596,000 or 48% and $32,232,000 or 24% for the
three and six months ended January 31, 1995, respectively, compared
to the comparable periods of the prior year. The increase in net sales
was due to an increase in the average selling price of coffee,
partially offset by a decrease in coffee pounds sold and the loss
(primarily for the six month period) of $9,557,000 of sales from
Hillside (due to its disposition).
Operating profits from food products were $4,048,000 and $7,537,000
increases of 90% and 49% for the three and six months ended January 31,
1995, respectively compared to $2,131,000 and $5,049,000, for the
comparable periods of the prior year. The increases resulted primarily
from increased gross profit margins partially offset by increased
selling, general and administrative expenses and the loss of operating
profits of $636,000(second quarter) and $1,822,000 (six months) from
Hillside (due to its disposition). Increased gross margins were due
to an increase in the average selling price of coffee greater than the
increase in the average cost of green coffee, partially offset by
decreased coffee pounds sold. The price of green coffee has been
volatile over the last ten months. During the six months ended
January 31, 1995 prices ranged from a low of $1.44 per pound to a
high of $2.31 per pound. Currently coffee is trading at around $1.80
per pound, more than double the price since the beginning of May 1994.
The Company consistently values its inventory and commitments at the
lower of cost or market. Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased primarily due to increased advertising, promotion and payroll
costs, partially offset by reduced coupon and brokerage costs in the
six month period.
Net income was $1,295,000 or $.12 per share and $2,237,000 or $.21
per share for the three and six months ended January 31, 1995,
respectively, compared to $7,244,000 or $.69 per share and $7,750,000
or $.74 per share for the comparable periods of the prior year. The
difference was primarily due to the reported gain on sale of Hillside
Coffee of California, Inc. (the Company's specialty coffee product
line) of $7,068,000 after income taxes or $.67 per share in the prior
year comparable periods and increased income taxes (due to increased
income before taxes other than on the aforemented gain in the three
and six months ended January 31, 1994), partially offset by increased
operating profits in the current fiscal year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of January 31, 1995, working capital was approximately $92,750,000
and the ratio of current assets to current liabilities was
approximately 4 to 1.
As of January 31, 1995, the Company had unused borrowing capacity of
approximately $18 million under its credit facilities of $40 million
with National Westminster Bank USA and Chemical Bank.
The Company plans on expanding its cafe and Quikava owned and
franchised operations, which in total are currently operating in
10 locations. The sales of these operations, which are in the
development stage, are not material to the Company's consolidated
sales.
10 of 12
As a result of the rise in price of green coffee, the Company has
financed increased inventories and receivables through the sale of
marketable securities and increased borrowings under its credit
facilities. The Company believes that its cash flow from operations
and its amended and restated revolving credit and term loan agreements
with its Banks provide sufficient liquidity to meet its working
capital, expansion and capital requirements.
