NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1: INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORTING:
The consolidated balance sheet as of July 3, 1999 has been derived
from the audited consolidated balance sheet for the fiscal year then
ended and is presented for comparative purposes. Certain amounts have
been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. The
accompanying financial statements presume that users have read the
audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year.
Accordingly, footnotes which would substantially duplicate such
disclosure have been omitted.
The interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in
the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the
results for the interim periods presented. Such adjustments consist of
normal recurring accruals plus, for the three months ended September
30, 1998, major costs incurred as a result of the installation of a
new integrated computer system.
Effective in the forth quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company changed
it's fiscal year end from June 30, 1999 to the 52 or 53-week period
which ends on the Saturday closest to June 30. Accordingly, quarterly
periods will generally be comprised of 13 weeks and end on Saturday.
The impact on the current quarter was not significant.
The results of operations for the three months ended October 2, 1999
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a
full year.
Note 2: CONTINGENCIES:
Other than as described below, no material proceedings to which the
Company is a party, or to which any of its properties are subject, are
pending or are known to be contemplated, and the Company knows of no
material legal proceedings, pending or threatened, or judgments
entered against any director or officer of the Company in his capacity
as such.
In July 1997, the Company received an arbitration demand from the
estate of Dr. Max Tesler, the former President of the Company who died
in December 1996. For alleged breaches of employment and other
agreements between the Company and Dr. Tesler, the Estate is seeking
an award of not less than $5,500,000 in compensatory damages,
$10,000,000 in punitive damages and such number of shares of common
stock of the Company as would equal 10% of the total number of shares
outstanding (approximately 4,000,000 shares, which had a value as of
the alleged "change of control" date of approximately $3.5 million).
Dr. Tesler's estate subsequently increased its claim for shares from
4,000,000 shares (10% of the outstanding stock) to approximately
15,594,000 shares (including shares for claimed interest through
September 30, 1999, which would be approximately 34% of the post
issuance outstanding shares) due to reductions in the value of such
shares from the time when the estate alleges they should have been
issued. For claimed tortuous conduct, the Estate is seeking
$20,000,000 for intentional infliction of emotional distress and
$10,000,000 for PRIMA FACIE tort. The Estate is also seeking
attorney's fees.
The claimed breaches of contract include failure to pay (a) salary
through December 1998 and (b) changes of control payments on the
assumption that there was a change of control, as defined, at the 1996
annual.
With respect to the claim for continuing salary, the Company has
advised the Estate of counterclaims which the Company has, which,
exceed the amount of such payments. The Company maintains that as a
result of the termination of Dr. Tesler's employment in December 1995,
the Company ceased to have any liability under the change-of-control
provisions of the various agreements with Dr. Tesler, as well as
having other defenses to such claims.
The children and a former spouse of Dr. Tesler had also raised certain
claims arising out of the death of Dr. Tesler. The Company settled
these claims in December 1998. Accordingly, the Company recorded a
lawsuit expense of $1,179,000 which included legal and other costs
related to the settlement recorded in the quarter ended December 31,
1998. Payments were advanced by ICC on behalf of the company.
In December 1995, the Company accrued the continuing salary due to Dr.
Tesler for the period through December 1998. It has not made provision
for any of the other amounts claimed, nor has it accrued any amounts
due from the Estate. As noted above, the Company believes that the
claims are without merit and that the Company has valid offsetting
claims. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the
arbitration claim and to prosecute its claims against the Estate.
Management believes the final outcome of the above will not have a
material effect upon the Company's financial position, liquidity or
operating results.
The Company is a party to various other legal proceedings arising in
the normal conduct of business. Management believes that the final
outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect
upon the Company's financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Gross sales for the three months ended October 2, 1999 were $22,076,000 as
compared to $19,440,000 in the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. The
increase in sales of $2,636,000 or 13.6% is mainly due to an increase in the
private label (store brand) sector of the business. The private label (store
brand) sales were $20,223,000 for the three months ended October 2, 1999 versus
$17,875,000 in the prior fiscal year. The increase of $2,348,000 or 13.1% is
primarily a result of new customers, new products, and increased sales to
current customers. The bulk/ contract sector of the business had sales of
$1,853,000 for the three months ended October 2, 1999 as compared to $1,565,000
in the prior fiscal year. Sales to two customers, Walgreen Company and Costco
Wholesale, were $6,857,000 or 31.1% of sales for the three months ended October
2, 1999 as compared to $7,464,000 or 38.4% in the prior year period.
Net sales for the three months ended October 2, 1999 were $20,978,000 as
compared to $17,425,000 in the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. The
increase was due to the increase in gross sales, net of a decrease in sales
discounts and allowances.
Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 77.5% for the three months ended
October 2, 1999 as compared to 93.2% in the prior year period. During the first
quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company converted to a new computer system, which
resulted in disruptions in shipping, production, and planning leading to a
reduction in sales for the quarter and increased cost of sales. Also, cost of
sales was affected in fiscal 1999, by the increased cost of packaging due to new
equipment installed in fiscal 1998, which caused production inefficiencies and
higher waste due to the beginning trials of the equipment in 1999.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3,055,000 for the three
months ended October 2, 1999 as compared to $3,654,000 in the prior year period.
The decrease of $599,000 in the current fiscal quarter is a result of decreased
distribution, and legal expenses. The decreased distribution costs are primarily
related to shipping problems that occurred in the prior fiscal year, due to the
new computer system mentioned above. The decreased legal costs related to the
settlement of litigation in fiscal 1999.
Research and development costs were $150,000 for the three months ended October
2, 1999 as compared to $234,000 for the comparable period in the prior fiscal
year. Interest expense was $1,245,000 for the three months ended October 2, 1999
as compared to $1,129,000 for the prior year period. The increase in interest
expense is primarily a result of increased interest rates as compared to the
prior quarter The Company recorded a tax provision of $103,000, which is related
to the net profit for the three months ended October 2, 1999, as compared to a
tax benefit of $1,247,000 recorded in the prior year period.
The Company reported net income of $201,000 or $.01 per share as compared to net
loss of $2,588,000 or $.09 per share in the prior year period.
The Company continues to take steps aimed at increasing profitability. These
steps include: (a) seeking new customers and products to increase sales volume,
(b) discontinuing marginal products and customers and (c) continuing efforts to
reduce material costs and other costs. There can be no assurance that such
efforts will be successful.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At October 2, 1999, the Company had working capital of $8,341,000 as compared to
$8,481,000 at July 3, 1999. Working capital at October 2, 1999 includes
$16,066,000 of accounts receivable as compared to $16,600,000 at July 3, 1999.
The accounts receivable decrease of $534,000 is a result of improved collections
and a decrease in sales from the prior quarter. Working capital also includes
$17,096,000 of inventory as compared to $17,916,000 at July 3, 1999. The
decrease is related to the disposal of shortdated products and improved
management of physical quantities. Working capital also includes $23,075,000 of
accounts payable and accrued expenses as compared to $24,298,000 at July 3,
1999. The decrease of $1,223,000 in payables is primarily due to payment of
accrued expenses.
The Company produced $1,089,000 in cash from operations in the first quarter of
1999, as a result of the above.
Capital expenditures for the first quarter ended October 2, 1999 were $155,000.
Such expenditures related primarily to the continuing upgrade of the Company's
manufacturing equipment and plant facilities.
On August 7, 1998, the Company modified its line of credit and equipment term
loan with its financial institution. The maximum amount available under the line
of credit and term loan is $25,000,000. At October 2, 1999, the Company had
borrowed $20,829,000. Borrowings under the modified agreement, which expires
August 7, 2001, bear interest at the prime rate of interest less 3/4%. Such
borrowing rate was increased by 2% effective April 1, 1999. In addition, the
Company has convertible subordinated debentures outstanding and capitalized
lease obligations which have a substantial impact on the working capital
requirements in terms of required principal and interest payments.
The Company has outstanding 2,500,000 shares of Series A cumulative redeemable
convertible outstanding preferred stock sold to ICC. Dividends from the date of
issue (April 8, 1996) through October 2, 1999 totaling $700,000 have accumulated
and are in arrears. There is no obligation or intention to pay dividends
currently on the preferred stock. Dividends will continue to accrue at the rate
of $200,000 per year until declared and paid. In addition, in April 1999, the
Company entered into a loan agreement with ICC for $3,000,000 with interest at
1% above the prime rate.
The Company has a deferred tax asset of $4,317,000, before the valuation
allowance at October 2, 1999, which consists of future tax benefits of net
operating loss carry forwards and various other temporary differences. The
benefits of net operating loss carry forwards and other temporary differences
that will take more than a few years to realize can not be reasonably determined
at this time. Accordingly, a valuation allowance of $664,000 was recorded at
October 2, 1999 to provide for this uncertainty. The realization of this asset
in future periods will improve the liquidity of the Company.
The Company continues to take steps aimed at increasing sales and reducing costs
to increase profitability. The Company intends to spend an estimated $1,500,000
for capital improvements in the fiscal year ending July 1, 2000 to increase
manufacturing capacity and reduce costs. It is anticipated that these capital
expenditures will be funded through equipment lease financing and working
capital. While the Company has in the past had no difficulty in obtaining such
financing or meeting working capital needs, there can be no assurance that it
will obtain the financing or meet working capital needs in the future.
