RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
- ----------------------
Consolidated food sales revenue increased $2.1 million from $18,312,559 in the
first quarter of fiscal 1996 to $20,379,355 in the first quarter of fiscal 1997.
This positive change is the result of an increase in revenues from the food
processing segment totaling $2.6 million, offset by a decrease in revenues from
restaurant operations. The increase in revenue in the food processing segment
reflects improvements in sales in the bakery division. As previously discussed,
the bakery division's sales during fiscal 1996 were negatively impacted due to
its largest customer discontinuing a line of product previously purchased from
the Company. Although actions to replace this business were put in place early
in fiscal 1996, benefits from these actions were realized at a slower pace than
originally expected, and significant improvements in bakery sales did not occur
until late in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996. Sales in the bakery division
have continued to improve during fiscal 1997, with first quarter sales showing
a $3.0 million increase over the corresponding period of fiscal 1996. This
increase in sales from the food processing segment during the first quarter of
fiscal 1997 is offset by a decrease in sales from restaurant operations
totaling $461,000. A decrease in revenues totaling $552,000 occurred due to
the closing of three stores since the beginning of fiscal 1996 and was offset
by increases in same store sales totaling approximately $92,000.
Franchise, royalty and other fees in the first three months of fiscal 1997
experienced an 8.7% decrease over the comparable period in fiscal 1995. This
is a partially the result of a net decline in the number of franchise units
from seventy five at the beginning of fiscal 1996 to seventy at the end of the
first quarter of fiscal 1997. A second factor contributing to this decline was
an overall decline of approximately 6.1% in franchise unit same store sales
during the first quarter of fiscal 1997 compared with the first quarter of
fiscal 1996.
Total operating income increased from $387,000 in the first quarter of fiscal
1996 to $772,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1997. This increase is the
result of increases in operating profits in the food processing and restaurant
operations segments, as well as reductions in corporate expenses, offset by
decreased profitability in the restaurant franchising segment. Total operating
profits in the food processing segment increased approximately $225,000 during
the first quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to the same period in fiscal 1996.
This increase is directly attributed to the increase in food sales revenues
described above which this segment has experienced. In addition, operating
profits from restaurant operations increased $183,000 over the comparable prior
year quarter despite an overall decline in operating revenue from this division.
This increase in profitability is attributed to the closing of several poorly
performing restaurants during fiscal 1996, as well as better management of
costs and expenses in existing restaurants and an increase in same store sales
during the first quarter of fiscal 1997. These increases in operating profits
were partly offset by a $67,000 reduction in profitability in the restaurant
franchising segment which was brought about by the decline in franchise,
royalty and other fees discussed above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
The Company had total working capital of $666,000 at May 17, 1996, down from
$984,000 at February 23, 1996. The main reason for this decrease is that as of
February 23, 1996, the semi-annual senior note principal payment due April 1,
1996 had been prepaid from the proceeds received on the sale of certain assets
as required by the amended terms of the notes. Therefore, current liabilities
as of February 23, 1996 includes only one of the $769,230 semi-annual senior
note payments. However, as of May 17, 1996 two of the semi-annual payments are
reflected in current liabilities. The effect of this is partially offset by
working capital generated during the first quarter through profitable
operations. In addition, management anticipates additional improvement in the
working capital position of the Company during the coming quarter as the
Company continues its return to profitability.
Total cash and cash equivalents increased $529,000 during the three month
period ended May 17, 1996. This increase was driven by profitable operations
during the first quarter which generated cash totaling $847,000. In addition,
collections on notes receivable and proceeds from sales of assets generated
$389,000 and $132,000, respectively. Offsetting these inflows of cash were
repayments of long-term debt and capital expenditures which totaled $475,000
and $361,000, respectively during the first quarter.
