NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED 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 three and nine months ended September
30, 1999 have been reclassified to conform with the 2000 presentation.
ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION 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 $5,000,000.
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, and certain other financial covenants.
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.
In connection with the previously announced Automotive Oils and Related Fluids
Program, the Company expended in excess of $ 1,050,000 of its resources during
the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Such amount was net of the balance
which remained in escrow from its Alabama Industrial Revenue Bond Issue for
future equipment needs aggregating $285,000 at January 1, 2000 and represented
new equipment, personnel and related costs associated with the Program. Through
September 30, 2000, the financial impact of these transactions was a reduction
in both liquidity and profitability. Although limited production commenced and
initial customer orders were received during July, 2000, it is not contemplated
that full-scale operations related to this line will be accomplished until late
2000 or early 2001. The Program comprises approximately forty (40) new line
items in the Company's product line and represents the Company's re-entry into
the automotive aftermarket.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH PERIOD JULY 1- SEPTEMBER 30:
Gross sales increased approximately 5% or $261,000 for the quarter ended
September 30, 2000 when compared to the same quarter of the preceding year. This
was primarily due to increased sales of the Company's existing core product
line.
Cost of goods sold increased as a percentage of net sales when comparing the
quarter ended September 30, 2000 with the comparable quarter in 1999. The
percentages were 79.6% and 70.1% for the quarters during 2000 and 1999,
respectively. This change was due the lower than anticipated margins on
anti-freeze products resulting from increased materials costs and, decreased
absorption of manufacturing overhead at the Company's Alabama plant somewhat
related to the above mentioned Automotive Oils and Related Fluids Program.

<PAGE>
Advertising and promotion increased approximately $ 58,000 comparing the three
months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. This was primarily due to a planned
increases in the advertising budget.
Selling and administrative expenses increased approximately $ 25,700 when
comparing the quarters ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. Such change was
attributable to increased personnel costs and anticipated incremental costs of
operations.
Interest expense, which aggregated approximately $ 117,000 for the current
quarter, increased approximately $15,000 when comparing the September 30, 2000
quarter to the corresponding quarter in 1999. Such increase was attributable to
recently promulgated interest rate increases as well as increased borrowings.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTH PERIOD JANUARY 1 - SEPTEMBER 30:
Gross sales increased 8% or approximately $992,000 when comparing the nine month
periods of 2000 and 1999. This was primarily due to increased sales of the
Company's existing core product line.
Cost of goods sold increased to 73% as a percentage of net sales versus 68.3%
when comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to the comparable period
in the preceding year. This change was due the lower than anticipated margins on
anti-freeze products resulting from increased materials costs and, decreased
absorption of manufacturing overhead at the Company's Alabama plant somewhat
related to the above mentioned Automotive Oils and Related Fluids Program.
Advertising and promotion expenses increased approximately $152,000 when
comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to the nine months ended
September 30, 1999. This was primarily due to a planned increases in the
advertising budget.
Selling and administrative expenses increased for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 by approximately $224,000 or 11% when compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 1999. This was attributable to increased personnel
costs primarily associated with the above mentioned Automotive Oils and Related
Fluids Program and normal incremental costs of operations.
Interest expense increased during the nine month period in 2000 by approximately
$68 ,000 when compared to the nine month period of 1999 reflecting the effect of
recently promulgated interest rate increases as well as increased borrowings.
