NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The information contained in this Report is unaudited, but reflects all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of the management, necessary for a fair
statement of results of the interim periods, consisting only of normal recurring
accruals. The results for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected for the full year.
Certain financial statement items for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 have been
reclassified to conform to the 2000 presentation.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Conditions and Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources:
- -------------------------------
The primary sources of the Registrant's liquidity are its operations, short-term
borrowings from a commercial bank pursuant to a revolving line of credit
arrangement, and other borrowings.
The total borrowings under the line are secured by trade receivables,
inventories, and other assets, and can aggregate a maximum amount of $3,500,000.
Borrowings under the line are due on demand from the bank. Under the terms of
the line, the Registrant is required to maintain minimum working capital of
$1,500,000, a maximum debt to tangible net worth of ratio of 2.5 to 1 and a
minimum debt service coverage factor of 1.15 times.
On March 25, 1999, The Registrant borrowed $400,000 from an entity owned by
certain officers of the Company. The obligation requires monthly payments of
principal and interest at prevailing rates through maturity during April, 2004,
when a final balloon payment is due.
The Registrant is involved in making sales in the Canadian market and,
accordingly, is subject to fluctuations of the Canadian currency. The Registrant
does not engage in currency hedging and deals with such risk as a pricing issue.
Results of Operations:
- ---------------------
Gross sales increased approximately 8% or $232,500 for the quarter ended March
31, 2000 when compared to the same quarter of the preceding year. Such increase
was consistent with prevailing trends and not associated with any single product
or customer.
Cost of goods sold decreased as a percentage of net sales when comparing the
quarter ended March 31, 2000 with the comparable quarter in 1999. The
percentages were 69.1 % and 69.3% for the quarters ended during 2000 and 1999,
respectively. This change was not significant and is not attributable to any one
individual factor.
Selling and administrative expenses increased approximately $89,500 or 14% when
comparing the quarters ended March 31, 2000 and 1999. This change was primarily
due to increased personnel costs and professional fees. The Company has recently
announced the pending introduction of a new automotive product line and has
opted to charge off costs associated with this project as incurred rather than
deferring them until the quarter in which revenues commence. It is currently
anticipated that initial revenues will be earned during the quarter ending June
30, 2000.
7
<PAGE>
Advertising and promotion increased approximately $84,900 or 86% comparing the
three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999. This was primarily due to increased
catalog costs and co- operative advertising. The Company has previously reported
intentional levels of decreased advertising in prior quarters and has now
strategically decided to expand advertising efforts of the Star brite brand
during the current fiscal year.
Interest expense increased by approximately $23,300 when comparing the March 31,
2000 quarter to the corresponding quarter in 1999. This increase resulted
primarily due to recently promulgated prime interest rate increases.
Forward-looking Statements:
- --------------------------
Certain statements contained herein, including without limitation expectations
as to future sales and operating results, constitute forward-looking statements.
For this purpose, any statements contained in this report that are not
statements of historical fact may be deemed forward-looking statements. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as "may", "will"',
"expect"', "anticipate", "intend", "could" or the negative other variations
thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and
other factors which may cause actual results, performance or achievements of the
Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or
achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors
which may affect the Company's results include, but are not limited to, the
highly competitive nature of the Company's industry; reliance on certain key
customers; consumer demand for marine, recreational vehicle and automotive
products; advertising and promotional efforts, and other factors. The Company
will not undertake and specifically declines any obligation to update or correct
any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date
of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated
events.
