CONNECTICUT WATER SERVICE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
PART I, ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Corporate Resources
At September 30, 1995 the Company had $5,756,000 of unused lines of
interim bank loan credit available.
Result of Operations
THE FOLLOWING FACTORS HAD A SIGNIFICANT EFFECT UPON THE COMPANY'S NET
INCOME FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AS COMPARED WITH THE NET
INCOME FOR THE SAME PERIOD LAST YEAR.
Net income applicable to common stock for the three months ended
September 30, 1995 increased from that of September 30, 1994 by $392,000, or
$.10 per average common share, on an increased number of average common shares
as a result of a $331,000 increase in operating income, a $32,000 increase in
other income, and a $29,000 decrease in interest and debt expense.
Operating revenues increased $1,199,000, or 10.9%, primarily due to
higher residential, commercial and public authority consumption in 1995
reflecting a summer season that was much hotter and drier than the 1994 summer.
Due to the quarterly cycle meter reading and billing, approximately $450,000 of
this increase is unbilled to customers at September 30, 1995. The Subsidiary
acquired the Sound View Water System August 1, 1995. The 1995 seasonal billing
to these 300 unmetered customers increased revenues approximately $150,000.
Operating expenses increased $868,000 primarily due to higher income
and gross earnings taxes related to the higher taxable income, $394,000, higher
operations expense of $309,000, primarily consisting of recognizing $100,000 of
post-retirement benefits other than pension costs, $50,000 in operating costs
related to the higher level customer water consumption, $40,000 relating to the
amortization of Sound View acquisition costs, and $119,000 of increased medical
claims, stock performance benefits and other employee benefit costs. A large
portion of these increases represent timing differences as operation expense is
only $63,000 higher for the nine month period ending September 30, 1995 as
compared to 1994. Planned maintenance and non-critical repairs also increased
$77,000 during the quarter. Depreciation expense related to a higher level of
plant in service increased $42,000. Municipal property taxes and payroll taxes
increased $33,000 and $13,000, respectively.
The increase in other income is primarily due to increased profits on
merchandising and jobbing projects.
The decrease in interest and debt expense primarily reflects a
reduction in the average balance of interim bank borrowings.
THE FOLLOWING FACTORS HAD A SIGNIFICANT EFFECT UPON THE COMPANY'S NET
INCOME FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AS COMPARED WITH THE NET
INCOME FOR THE SAME PERIOD LAST YEAR.
Net income applicable to common stock for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 increased from that of September 30, 1994 by $520,000, or
$.12 per average common share, on an increased number of average common shares
as a result of a $1,132,000 increase in operating revenues, a $746 increase in
operating expense, a $135,000 increase in other income and deductions, and a
$1,000 increase in interest and debt expense.
<PAGE> 15
Page 15
Operating revenues increased primarily due to the higher residential,
commercial, and public authority consumption in 1995 reflecting the unusually
hot and dry summer.
Operating expenses increased primarily due to higher income and gross
earnings taxes related to the higher taxable income, $474,000, higher
depreciation expense related to increased plant in service, $127,000, higher
operation and maintenance expenses, $63,000 and $41,000, respectively, and
higher payroll and municipal taxes, $39,000 and $2,000, respectively.
The increase in other income is primarily due to a reduction in
preferred stock dividends reflecting the refinancing of the 9.5% Series
Cumulative Preferred Stock of the Subsidiary in March, 1994, higher interest
income related to a loan to the Sound View Water Company, and increased profits
on merchandising and jobbing projects.
