Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Results of Operations: Six Months Ended March 31, 1996 vs. Six Months Ended
March 31, 1995
Revenues increased by $26,906,000 (28.9%) to $120,167,000 from the
$93,261,000 reported last year. The increase in revenues was the result of
acquisitions made during fiscal 1995 offset in part by lower average prices
and a change in incineration mix. The Company's incineration revenues were
adversely affected by industry-wide overcapacity, waste minimization and
intense price competition.
Operating expenses increased by $33,732,000 (46.0%) to $106,997,000
from the $73,265,000 reported last year. The increase reflects the increase
in revenues and higher fixed operating costs as the result of acquisitions
made during fiscal 1995. Operating costs as a percentage of revenues
increased to 89.0% in 1996 from 78.6% in 1995 mainly due to the large
component of the Company's cost structure which is fixed.
Depreciation increased by $4,660,000 (41.3%) mainly due to the impact
of the 1995 acquisitions offset in part by lower capital expenditures during
the last few years.
Selling and administrative expenses increased $3,760,000 (26.5%) as the
result of higher payroll, data processing and other costs associated with
acquisitions made during the third quarter of fiscal 1995. As a percentage
of revenues, selling and administrative expenses decreased to 14.9% in 1996
from 15.2% in 1995.
Interest expense increased by $4,509,000 as a result of acquisition-
related debt incurred or assumed in the third quarter of fiscal 1995.
The effective income tax benefits for the six months ended March 31,
1996 and 1995 were 36.1% and 40.4%, respectively.
Results of Operations: Quarter Ended March 31, 1996 vs. Quarter Ended March
31, 1995.
Revenues increased by $15,377,000 (35.5%) to $58,730,000 from the
$43,354,000 reported last year. The increase in revenues was the result of
acquisitions made during the third quarter of fiscal 1995 offset in part by
lower average prices and a change in incineration mix. The Company's second
quarter has traditionally been the slowest quarter because of decreased
market demand. In addition, unusually harsh weather conditions
significantly impacted revenues and earnings as companies reduced operating
schedules causing a reduction in available waste volumes and a decrease in
demand for related transportation services. Although overall business
conditions remain very competitive, the Company experienced an upturn in
business late in the second quarter that is expected to continue into the
third quarter.
Operating expenses increased by $16,597,000 (44.1%) reflecting the
increase in revenues and higher fixed operating costs as the result of
acquisitions made during the third quarter of fiscal 1995. Operating costs
as a percentage of revenues increased to 92.4% in 1996 from 86.9% in 1995
mainly due to the large component of the Company's cost structure which is
fixed.
FORM 10-Q Page 6 of 7
Depreciation increased $2,751,000 (48.5%) mainly due to an increase in
the amortization of airspace for a recently completed landfill cell and the
impact of the 1995 acquisitions offset in part by lower capital expenditures
during the past few years.
Selling and administrative expenses increased $1,275,000 (17.1%) as the
result of higher payroll, data processing and other costs associated with
acquisitions made during the third quarter of fiscal 1995. As a percentage
of revenues, selling and administrative expenses decreased to 14.8% in 1996
from 17.2% in 1995.
Interest expense increased $2,224,000 as a result of acquisitions-
related debt incurred or assumed in the third quarter of fiscal 1995.
The effective income tax benefits for the three months ended March 31,
1996 and 1995 were 36.2% and 39.0%, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the first six months of fiscal 1996 and 1995, expenditures for
property and equipment were $5,788,000 and $9,255,000, respectively. In
addition, expenditures on remediation projects at the Company's facilities
for the first six months of fiscal 1996 and 1995 were $1,537,000 and
$1,051,000, respectively. The Company financed its capital and remediation
expenditures from available cash resources.
The Company's projected capital and remediation expenditures for the
remainder of fiscal 1996 are approximately $6,000,000. Capital and
remediation expenditures are expected to be financed from available cash
balances and proceeds from the sale of certain nonstrategic assets.
The Company continues its efforts to reduce operating losses through
cost reductions and increased operating efficiencies. In addition, the
Company continues its emphasis on expanding the scope of customer services
in order to enhance revenues and improve cash flows.
For the remainder of fiscal year 1996, the Company anticipates lower
operating cash requirements as it realizes the benefits of cost reductions
and a lower level of planned capital spending. The Company believes that
existing cash balances and cash expected to be generated from future
operations will be sufficient to meet the Company's cash requirements for
the remainder of fiscal 1996. For further details, see page 8 of the
Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
