ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
Century Steel Products, Inc.
Century's first quarter manufacturing revenues reflected the nation's winter
weather in the steel subsidiary's marketing area, and manufacturing revenues
reflect winter conditions in general. In spite of the weather, Century's
warehouse sales were substantially greater than first quarter 1995, even though
commercial and residential construction volume were consistent with 1995 in the
region.
U.S. Insurance Brokers, Inc.
The Company acquired U.S. Insurance Brokers, Inc. (USIB) in Washington, DC on
December 18, 1996, from Ted L. Schwartzbeck, the Executive V.P. of Century.
USIB has been in its development stage since September, 1994, when it began
insurance sales in December, 1995.
USIB was formed to service the members of major national associations in the
D.C. area, which is home to over 4200 such associations. The laws in DC permit
insurance agencies to share after expense profits with non licensed entities,
whereas all other state laws prohibit commission sharing with non licensed
entities, such as associations, and do not provide a clear cut path to share
profits.
This business plan allows USIB to share profits with the major associations
through Limited Partnership arrangements, in exchange for marketing rights, and
national association news letter and magazine advertising to their members.
The insurance brokerage subsidiary, U.S. Insurance Brokers, Inc.(USIB), entered
into its first major national association Limited Partnership agreements on
March 8, 1996, with the National Lumber and Building Material Dealers
Association (NLBMDA) in Washington, DC, an association formed in 1910 with
11,000 lumber dealer members and 270,000 employees in all 50 states. The
agreements provide for USIB to market group health, commercial lines and
personal lines auto insurance to the NLBMDA members and their employees on a
national basis.
The NLBMDA advises that the potential annual gross group health premium for its
members approximates $540,000,000, and the annual gross premium for personal
lines auto approximates $400,000,000. The amount of premium actually written by
USIB will depend on the competitive rates and benefits offered by the insurance
carriers which have appointed USIB.
USIB has been appointed by Golden Rule Insurance Co., an Indianapolis based
carrier admitted in 30 states. Golden Rule's group health plans are amongst the
most competitive plans in the nation with respect to rates and benefits. They
have developed plans which are especially designed for national associations
with business trade groups within the associations, which exclude pre existing
medical conditions, and do not require medical
-9-
<PAGE> 10
exams. Lower national association rates have been filed by Golden Rule with the
various state insurance departments, permitting better benefits with lower
rates. USIB's Commissions are established at 10%, with USIB retaining 4% of
annual gross premium after commissions and Limited Partnership profit sharing
plans, as its revenue stream.
USIB also has the authority to market group term life and disability plans to
the NLBMDA members and employees, and has been appointed by CIGNA, Phoenix Home
Life Mutual and U.S. Life Insurance Co's. as their agent to market their
products to the NLBMDA members.
The NLBMDA has also granted the authority to USIB to offer commercial lines
liability coverages to its members. To this effect, USIB is in active
negotiations with the Howard W. Phillips Agency in Washington, DC, an agency
established in 1916.
This Joint Venture will provide for USIB to be the originating broker and
Phillips to be the Managing General Agent for the Lumbermens' liability
coverages. The approximate annual gross premium for the NLBMDA commercial lines
coverages is in excess of $500,000,000. USIB projects that a minimum of
$50,000,000 of that annual gross premium will be written by USIB, with USIB
projected to retain 4% of that gross premium as its annual revenue stream.
Phillips advises that it is negotiating with Firemen's Fund to provide an
exclusive on the NLBMDA business in exchange for the lowest competitive rates
available in the insurance marketplace.
USIB has begun to quote its rates on health coverages to the NLBMDA members in
North and South Carolina, Louisiana and Tennessee at this date. USIB is
expected to begin accepting premium and earning commissions from NLBMDA members
and their employees during the second quarter. Commercial coverages and
personal lines auto quotes will also begin income generation in the second
quarter.
USIB was appointed as Insurance Broker of Record by the Association of
Metropolitan Sewerage Agencies (AMSA) on April 3, 1996, as the prelude to the
completion of a Limited Partnership agreement between USIB and AMSA. AMSA has
165 municipal members, and its members include the sewerage agencies in New
York, Chicago and Los Angeles.
AMSA's gross insurance premium currently being paid by the municipalities to
various insurance carriers is approximately $250,000,000. USIB projects a 20%
minimum premium penetration level, or $50,000,000 of sales. USIB would retain
approximately 4% of that amount as pre tax profits, after Limited Partnership
profits and placement costs.
USIB and AMSA have agreed that the pilot placement of all lines coverage will
be the AMSA Northern Ohio members, including the Cleveland municipality. The
gross premium will be approximately $20,000,000.
-10-
<PAGE> 11
The AMSA members have not put their insurance out for bid in over 15 years. At
the time the coverage was originally placed, the insurance markets had a much
smaller capacity, and coverage was therefore more difficult and more expensive.
The low claims history of the past 15 years has been minimal, due to risk
management, and that factor alone should help USIB to reduce the AMSA members'
insurance premium costs.
USIB is in active negotiations with The National Career Colleges Association
(1,000,000 members), and STPP, an association which includes many
environmentally conscious municipalities and national associations. STPP has
authorized USIB to develop a "green" auto insurance program for its 300 member
association and municipalities, covering 7-8,000,000 members and their
employees. This "green" program would reduce insurance premium rates for
members through less miles traveled, the use of alternative fuels, and other
methods characterized as "the transportation reform movement".
In order to obtain sufficient capital to continue operations beyond the start
up development phase, USIB began a private placement of its Series A 12.5%
cumulative coupon convertible preferred shares, during the first quarter.
Management believes that it will complete the raise of the capital required to
completely fund operations by the end of the second quarter.
USIB raised $320,000 from the private placement of 8,000 USIB convertible
preferred shares during the first quarter at $40.00 per share. The proceeds
from the convertible preferred share sales were more than sufficient to defray
USIB's additional development costs. USIB expects to complete the hiring of all
permanent personnel on a salaried basis during the second quarter 1996.
USIB has utilized the services of Association Assistance Corporation, an
affiliate of Government Relations, Inc., a transportation public relations and
lobbying firm on Capitol Hill, to assist USIB with its association
negotiations. Government Relations, Inc. lists among its clients such entities
as the San Francisco Transit Authority, and the Michigan Transit Authority.
Results of Operations
Century Steel Products, Inc.'s (CSP's) sales of $729,000 for the 1996 first
quarter were $111,752 or 15% greater than the first quarter of 1995 sales of
$617,247.
CSP's Trade debt was $233,063 as compared to $403,837 in the first quarter of
1995.
CSP's first quarter 1996 operating profits of $118,500 were 1000% greater than
the 1995 first quarter's operating profits of $12,587, and contributed $.09 per
share to the Company's consolidated earnings.
This earnings increase is attributed to CSP's overall 1996 increased sales over
1995.
USIB's first quarter 1996 operating loss was ($94,670). This loss contributed
($.07) per share to the Company's consolidated earnings. This (loss) resulted
from continued development costs with respect to USIB's national association
marketing agreements.
The Company's consolidated earnings per share were ($.01) for the first
quarter.
