MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(in thousands, except earnings per share)
Referring to the Company's financial condition as of March 31, 1995 as
contrasted with December 31, 1994, inventories have increased while accounts
receivable and current liabilities have decreased. The increase in inventories
is attributable to the programmed leveling of production over the entire year.
The decrease in accounts receivable is due to the Company's seasonality which
naturally reduces accounts receivable at the end of the first quarter. Current
liabilities are down due to the payment of an amount contractually due former
owners of a business acquired in 1994. This decrease was partially offset by
increased payables related to purchases of materials to support increased
inventory production.
Net sales for the period ended March 31, 1995 were $26,990, an increase of 46%
over net sales of $18,447 for the same period last year. The increase is due in
large part to acquisitions made in the second half of 1994 as well as
distribution growth in certain of the Company's product lines. First quarter
gross profit rose from $6,836 in the first quarter of 1994 to $9,693 due to
increased sales volume partially offset by increased sales in product lines
carrying lower margins. Selling, general and administrative expenses were 35%
higher in the first quarter of 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994,
reflecting costs associated with increased sales as well as increased goodwill
amortization related to the 1994 acquisitions and the recognition of $160 of
expenses related to the planned relocation of the Company's Idaho Woodworks
operations. These costs were partially offset by a reduction in advertising
expense due to a reserve adjustment. Interest expense for the period was $656 as
compared to $269 for the same period last year. A combination of increased debt,
related to the 1994 acquisitions, and higher interest rates caused this
increase. Net income for the first quarter of 1995 was $212 as compared to $93
for the same period last year and related earnings per share rose from $.03 in
the prior year to $.06 in the current period. Earnings per share for the quarter
were calculated on 3,772 weighted average shares as compared to 3,340 for the
same period last year, reflecting additional shares related to the 1994
acquisition activity.
