RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Sales decreased 54% in the second quarter of fiscal year ending August 1998
to $1,163,433. The majority of this sales decrease is due to our largest
customer, Ford Truck Division, Louisville, Kentucky, shutting down the
production of their HN-80 lines of heavy-duty trucks at the end of December
1997.
Freightliner Corporation purchased the vehicle line from Ford Motor Company.
Freightliner's intention is to use the months of January 1998 - March 1998 to
transfer necessary equipment from Louisville, Kentucky to their plant in St.
Thomas, Ontario, and make all necessary adjustments at that facility in order
to produce the new product line. They are forecasting production to begin in
the second half of April 1998. All current vendors of the HN-80 line at Ford
Truck Division will be retained by Freightliner.
In the month of January 1998, Knusaga Corporation purchased a six-way power
seat track line of business from ITT for $315,000. The customer base for this
product line is mainly the motor home industry serviced by independent
distributors. In the first year of operation, we are projecting $3,500,000 of
sales.
Gross profits from operations decreased to a negative $243,973. This is
partially attributable to fixed costs remaining constant with the severe
reduction in sales volume. Also, during this period, the plant machine lay-out
was drastically changed from a batch and que processing method to a work cell
concept at a cost of $130,000.
Selling and Administrative expenses increased to 21% of sales during the
quarter as compared to 9% for the year earlier period. The increased
percentage is attributable to fixed costs remaining constant as compared to the
reduced sales volume.
Net income decreased to a negative $349,641 for the quarter as compared to a
positive $155,108 for the previous year. The significant decrease in net
income is the result of lower sales and production volumes due to the purchase
of the HN-80 line of trucks by Freightliner from Ford Truck causing the three
month delay of shipments for this product line.
LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL
The company's cash flow generated $106,002 from operating activities. The
purchase of the seat track product line and other machinery requirements
totaling $407,860 was financed from cash flow and bank borrowing of $326,565
resulting in a $7,761 decrease in our cash balance.
CONTINGENT MATTERS
There are no contingencies or consequential uncertainties known that will
materially affect the financial information as presented.
