C. Accounting Policy Change
The Company adopted the provisions of the Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 115 ("SFAS 115"), "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
& Equity Securities" for such securities held as of or acquired after July
1, 1994. In accordance with SFAS 115, prior period financial statements
have not been restated. Currently, a portion of the Company's investments
have been classified as trading securities and are carried at fair value
with unrealized gains and losses reported in earnings. The balance of the
Company's investments are currently classified as available for sale and
are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses excluded from
earnings and reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity. The
cost of investments sold is determined on the specific identification
method. Investments are reported at fair value. Investments designated
trading securities are carried as current assets. Available-for-sale
investments are carried as current or non-current assets as appropriate.
The Company has not identified any held-to-maturity investments at this
time. Dividend and interest income are accrued as earned.
Registrant has reported the cumulative effect of the change in accounting
principle relating to trading securities in the first quarter of fiscal
1995 as an expense of $593,000, net of taxes. During the quarter ended
September 30, 1994, the market value of the Company's trading securities
declined $615,000 and is included in Other income (expense). The Company
has reported the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle
relating to available for sale securities in the first quarter of fiscal
<PAGE>
C. Accounting Policy Change (CONTINUED)
1995 as a reduction in shareholders' equity of $546,000, net of taxes.
During the quarter ended December 31, 1994, the fair value of the Company's
available for sale securities declined resulting in an additional reduction
in shareholders' equity of $441,000.
Unrealized gains and losses on available for sale investment securities
included in shareholders' equity at December 31, 1994 were fixed income
government securities maturing after one through five years with a cost of
$26,721,000, a fair value of $25,576,000, resulting in a net unrealized
loss of($1,145,000) and fixed income government backed securities with a
maturity after five through ten years with a cost of $3,303,000, a fair
value of $3,072,000, resulting in a net unrealized loss of ($231,000).
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analyis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
The volatile the green coffee market continues to effect Registrant's
operations. Green coffee costs have decreased from the 20 year highs
reached this past summer. The members of the Association of Coffee
Producing Countries (ACPC) are again trying to establish a voluntary coffee
retention program to provide a mechanism to support green coffee prices at
or above current levels. Green coffee costs for the first half of fiscal
1995 have exceeded those during the same period of fiscal 1994 by nearly
100%. Increases in the sales prices of roast coffee during this period
brought operating margins in line with historic averages by the end of the
quarter ending in December. Registrant cautions against predicting whether
these margins can be sustained given the uncertain cost of its primary raw
material and the competitive pressures of its market.
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 1995 increased 26%, as the
result of higher sales prices of roast coffee, to $62,598,000 as compared
to $49,564,000 in the same quarter of the prior year. Net sales for the
first half of fiscal 1995 increased 21% to $116,780,000 from $96,562,000 in
the same period of fiscal 1994. Gross profit in the second quarter was
$30,084,000, or 48% of sales, as compared to $25,908,000, or 48% of sales,
in the first quarter of fiscal 1995 and $27,621,000, or 56% of sales, in
the same quarter of fiscal 1994. Operating expenses reached $22,063,000 in
the second quarter of fiscal 1995, as compared to $21,394,000 in the first
quarter of fiscal 1995 and $21,372,000 in the second quarter of fiscal
1994.
Income after taxes and before effect of accounting change for the three
months ended December 31, 1994, reached $5,374,000, or $2.79 per share, as
compared to $4,514,000, or $2.34 per share, in the first quarter of fiscal
1995, and $4,196,000 or $2.18 per share in the second quarter of fiscal
1994.
Net income for the first half of fiscal 1995 has been reduced as a result
of adopting the provisions of SFAS 115 in the first quarter of fiscal 1995.
The cumulative effect of its adoption, net of tax, was $(593,000) or
$(0.31) per share. Income after taxes and before the effect of accounting
