NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1 - Basis of Presentation
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all
information, disclosures, and notes necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. Reference should be made
to the financial statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994. These financial
statements include all adjustments which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary to a fair presentation of the results for the
interim period.
2 - Restructuring during 1994
In March 1994, the Company restructured its operations by combining
its overseas resistance wire operations with Harrison Alloys Inc.
(Harrison). The latter is referred to herein as "related company".
Effective September 30, 1994, the Company transferred substantially all
the assets of its U.S. operating subsidiary, Driver-Harris Alloys
(Alloys), to Harrison in exchange for the assumption by Harrison of an
equivalent amount of liabilities. Harrison is required to pay to the
Company license fees and commissions totalling $500,000 per year from
1994 to 2003. For details of these transaction, see Part I, Item 1,
"Business" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1994 and Notes 3 and 4 to the 1994 consolidated
financial statements.
The unaudited pro-forma consolidated data for the six months ended
June 30, 1994 gives effect to the foregoing transactions as if they had
occurred on January 1, 1994.
3 - Investment in Related Company
Harrison Alloys Inc.("Harrison"), a fifty percent owned company, is
recorded on the equity method of accounting. The recognition of past
losses has reduced the carrying amount of the Company's investment in
Harrison to a negative balance (liability) of $1,480,000 at June 30,
1995. This amount, combined with a deferred credit of $1,117,000 which
originated from the March 1994 restructuring referred to in Note 2, is
equal to the balance of a bank loan of Harrison ($2,597,000) which the
Company has guaranteed. Accordingly, for the six months ended June 30,
1995, Driver-Harris Company recorded income from its equity in Harrison
of $221,000 and amortization of the deferred credit of $148,000 (which
is included in other income).
The Company, in addition to its 50% ownership of Harrison, owns
Irish Driver-Harris Co. Ltd., a producer of insulated electrical wire
and cable, located in Ireland and the U.K., and Quality Heat Treatment
Pty. Ltd., a company in the furnace manufacturing and heat treating
business, located in Australia.
4 - Waiver of Non-Compliance with Loan Covenant
The U.S. banks have waived non-compliance with a loan covenant
until January 1, 1996.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Financial Condition
After consummating the 1994 restructuring referred to in Note 2 to
the Financial Statements, the Company has reduced its liabilities and
contingent obligations and stabilized its cash flow requirements. The
Company continues to be partially dependent upon Harrison Alloys Inc.
(Harrison) for its cash flow. Harrison, a 50% owned company, has a
highly leveraged debt structure, a portion of which the Company is
contingently liable for.
Results of Operations (Pro-Forma for 1994)
Net sales to customers increased by about thirty-five percent
during the first six months of 1995 compared to the same period last
year. This was principally due to higher exchange rates and increased
selling prices. The latter were caused by the higher cost of raw
materials principally copper and PVC. However, since increases in
selling price lagged increased costs, the gross profit percentage
dropped from 15.7% in 1994 to 12.4% in the current period. Selling,
general and administrative expense remained relatively constant and
therefore decreased as a percentage of net sales, from 15.7% to 12.8%.
Higher average borrowings, primarily in the first quarter of 1995,
resulted in increased interest and finance expenses.
In 1994, the Company recorded a charge of $426,000 representing its
equity in the investment in Harrison. For the six months ended June 30,
1995, the Company recorded income of $221,000 from its equity in this
investment. The recognition of past losses has reduced the carrying
amount of the Company's investment in Harrison to a negative balance
(liability), which combined with a deferred credit resulting from the
March 1994 restructuring equaled the balance of a bank loan of Harrison
which the Company has guaranteed. Losses from the Company's investment
in Harrison are recognized only to the extent of the bank loan guaranty.
During the six months ended June 30, 1995, Harrison made aggregate
principal payments of $369,000 under the bank loan. Accordingly,
Driver-Harris recorded income from its equity in Harrison of $221,000
and amortization of the deferred credit of $148,000 (which is included
in other income).
The disproportionate income tax provision in 1995 is primarily
because $221,000 recorded as income from equity in Harrison is not
taxable income to the Company. In 1994, no tax benefits were available
for subsidiaries experiencing losses. The utilization of tax loss
carryforwards provided tax benefits of $42,000 and $41,000 in the 1995
and 1994 periods, respectively.
