Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Results of Operations: Six Months Ended March 31, 1994 vs. Six Months Ended
March 31, 1993
Revenues for the first six months decreased by $24,721,000 (21.8%) due
mainly to the continued weak conditions in the hazardous waste treatment
market and the extreme winter weather in the Northeast and Midwest during
January and February of 1994. The reduced revenues reflect a lower volume
processed at lower average prices.
A review was made of the Company's assets at March 31, 1994. As a
result of this review, a Special Charge before taxes of $14,500,000
($9,031,000 after taxes) was recorded in the second quarter for: (1)
various engineering and other expenditures on capital projects no longer
considered viable in the current business climate ($8,200,000); (2) future
estimated expenditures for landfill capping and related activities
($5,000,000); and (3) miscellaneous items ($1,300,000).
Operating expenses decreased by $6,177,000 (8.3%) reflecting the
reduced level of revenues along with the impact of personnel cutbacks and
other cost reduction efforts. Operating costs as a percentage of revenues
increased to 76.8% in 1994 from 65.5% in 1993 due mainly to the decrease in
revenues.
Depreciation increased by $1,107,000 (10.7%) due to the Company's
capital expenditure program to upgrade equipment, improve operating
efficiency and comply with changing regulations.
Selling and administrative expenses decreased by $519,000 (3.6%) due
mainly to lower commissions and other compensation expenses related to the
lower level of revenues and personnel cutbacks under the Company's cost
reduction program. As a percentage of revenues, selling and administrative
expenses were 15.7% in 1994 and 12.7% in 1993 due mainly to the lower
revenues.
The income tax benefit recorded for the six months ended March 31, 1994
was based on an estimated effective rate of 37.0%. The income tax charge
for 1993 was based on an estimated effective rate of 36.8%.
The net loss for the first six months of 1994 was $11,724,000 or $.19
per share compared to net earnings of $8,947,000 or $.15 per share in 1993.
The Special Charge of $14,500,000 ($9,031,000 after taxes) included in the
net loss for the quarter and the six months ended March 31, 1994 amounted to
$.15 per share. The cumulative effect to September 30, 1993 of the adoption
of SFAS No. 109, Accounting For Income Taxes, in the first quarter of 1994
resulted in a favorable adjustment to net earnings of $543,000 or $.01 per
share. Exclusive of the Special Charge and the cumulative effect of the
change in accounting principle, the Company had a net loss of $3,236,000 or
$.05 per share.
FORM 10-Q Page 6 of 8
Results of Operations: Three Months Ended March 31, 1994 vs. Three Months
Ended March 31, 1993
Revenues decreased by $13,251,000 (24.3%) due to the continued weak
conditions in the hazardous waste treatment market and the extreme winter
weather in the Northeast and Midwest. The reduced revenues reflect lower
volume processed at lower average prices.
As discussed above, a Special Charge of $14,500,000 ($9,031,000 after
taxes) was recorded in the second quarter ended March 31, 1994.
Operating expenses decreased by $3,800,000 (10.2%) reflecting the
reduced level of revenues along with the impact of personnel cutbacks and
other cost reduction efforts. As a percentage of revenues, operating
expenses were 81.3% in 1994 compared to 68.5% in 1993 due mainly to the
reduction in revenues.
Depreciation increased by $712,000 (13.7%) due to the Company's capital
expenditure program to upgrade its equipment, improve operating efficiency
and comply with changing regulations.
Selling and administrative expenses decreased by $246,000 (3.4%) due
mainly to lower compensation costs resulting from the Company's cost
reduction efforts. Selling and administrative expenses were 16.7% of
revenues in 1994 compared to 13.1% in 1993 due mainly to the lower revenues.
The income tax benefit recorded for the quarter ended March 31, 1994
was based on an estimated annual effective rate of 37.0%. The income tax
charge for the quarter ended March 31, 1993 was based on an estimated annual
effective rate of 36.8%.
The net loss for the second quarter was $12,373,000 or $.20 per share
compared with net earnings of $2,881,000 or $.05 per share in 1993. The
1994 net loss included the Special Charge of $14,500,000 ($9,031,000 after
taxes) or $.15 per share. Exclusive of the Special Charge, the net loss
from operations was $3,342,000 or $.05 per share.
Earnings from operations continue to be adversely affected by the weak
conditions in the hazardous waste treatment market. The Company is
continuing its comprehensive program to improve its competitive position and
its profitability. This program includes Company-wide cost reductions
including elimination of salary increases and personnel cutbacks where
appropriate. In addition, the Company is directing capital expenditures at
improving material handling and other capabilities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's financial condition continues to be strong despite the
reduced earnings of the last several quarters. The Special Charge of
$14,500,000 in the second quarter did not affect current cash flow. The
accruals for landfill capping and other costs included in the Special Charge
will require cash outlays in future periods.
FORM 10-Q Page 7 of 8
The Company's reduced capital expenditures were financed with the cash
flow from operations and funds on hand.
The Board of Directors of the Company suspended the payment of
dividends on its common stock at its October 29, 1993 meeting to retain
these funds within the Company for use in its capital improvement program.
The Board of Directors will periodically review the resumption of future
dividend payments.
Otherwise, there have been no material changes in the Company's
financial condition and its liquidity and capital resources since September
30, 1993. For further details, see page 14 of the Company's 1993 Annual
Report to Shareholders.
