Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01
of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
solely of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.
Note 2. Inventories:
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined
using the first-in, first-out method ("FIFO").
Components of inventories at September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994
consist of the following:
September 30, 1995 December 31, 1994
Raw materials $ 970,560 $1,010,187
Finished goods 892,819 850,771
Packaging materials
and supplies 90,511 102,938
Less provision for
obsolescence (25,000) (82,000)
---------- ----------
$1,928,890 $1,881,896
========== ==========
All inventory is currently used in the business of the Company's
subsidiary, Berger Bros Company.
Note 3. Property, Plant and Equipment:
Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Costs of major
additions and betterments are capitalized; maintenance and repair costs, which
do not improve or extend the life of the respective assets, are charged to
operations as incurred. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter
of the lease term or useful life.
<PAGE>
When an asset is sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of, the cost of
the property and the related accumulated depreciation is removed from the
respective accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income.
For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is computed on the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. For income
tax purposes, depreciation is computed on accelerated methods.
Note 4. Short Term Debt & Extraordinary Item.
As of September 30, 1995 the Company's working capital credit line of
$2,697,000 has been classified as a current liability. Under the terms of the
credit facility a payment is due on June 30, 1996 for all unpaid principal
unless it is extended. The Company is currently exploring different options
with respect to the refinancing of this credit facility.
In June 1994, the Company paid off its loan with its former lender and
recognized an extraordinary net gain of $940,906.
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Conditions and Results of Operation.
Results of Operations
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Berger Financial Corporation and Berger Financial
Corporation's wholly-owned subsidiary, Berger Bros Company. All intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated.
During the quarter ended September 30, 1995 (the "Current Quarter") the
Company reported a net loss of $258,356 on net sales of $4,133,260. This
compares to net income of $84,623 on net sales of $5,019,421 for the quarter
ended September 30, 1994 (the "Comparable Quarter").
The Current Quarter's sales decreased 17.6% ($886,161) as compared to the
quarter ended September 30, 1994. This decrease is primarily related to the
adverse weather experienced in 1995 compared to 1994.
Cost of Sales decreased to $3,730,248 in the Current Quarter from
$4,261,969 in the Comparable Quarter. As a percentage of net sales, Cost of
Sales increased to 90.0% in the Current Quarter from 84.9% in the Comparable
Quarter. This percentage increase occurred as a result of decreased sales
volume and the inability to absorb fixed overhead costs.
<PAGE>
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $506,497 in the Current
Quarter as compared to $522,793 in the Comparable Quarter. This decrease in
expenses is due to lower sales commissions resulting from the reduction of sales
in the Current Quarter. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and
administrative expenses increased to 12.3% in the Current Quarter as compared
to 10.4% in the Comparable Quarter.
For the nine month period ending September 30, 1995 (the "Current Nine
Months"), the Company reported operating income of $96,837 on sales of
$12,279,983. This compares to operating income of $165,559 on sales of
$12,470,510 for the nine months ending September 30, 1994 (the "Comparable Nine
Months"). This decrease in operating results is primarily due to unabsorbed
labor cost and associated benefits cost incurred by the Company in attempting
to build inventory based upon anticipated sales. In light of the current sales
level, the Company is looking at ways to reduce future expenses, which will be
reflected in the fourth quarter. The Company's net loss of $332,725 in the
Current Nine Months as compared to net income of $742,448 in the Comparable Nine
Months resulted primarily from the extraordinary gain of $940,906 in the
Comparable Nine Months.
Sales decreased $190,527 to $12,279,983 for the Current Nine Months from
$12,470,510 for the Comparable Nine Months. This decrease is a result of the
Construction industry's softness as well as the adverse weather conditions in
the Current Nine Months.
Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Current Nine Months
increased 20% compared to the Comparable Nine Months due to the hiring of a new
salesman, additional advertising, higher professional and warranty fees,
resulting primarily from the introduction of a new product segment.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 1995, the working capital deficit was $175,659 resulting
in a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of .96 to 1, as compared to
working capital of $2,103,748 (2.61 to 1) at December 31, 1994. This decrease
in working capital is primarily due to the fact that the Company's credit line
of $2,697,000 has been reclassified to a current liability as discussed in Note
4 to the Financial Statements.
Current liabilities at September 30, 1995 totalled $4,404,455 consisting
primarily of $1,643,397 in accounts payable and accrued expenses and $2,761,058
in current maturities of long term debt. At December 31, 1994, total current
liabilities were $1,308,142 consisting primarily of $1,079,968 in accounts
payable and accrued expenses and only $228,174 in current maturities of long
term debt.
<PAGE>
At September 30 1995, the Company had shareholders' equity of $4,971,883
as compared to $5,171,321 at December 31, 1994. The decrease of $199,438 is
made up of the following:
Increased equity for issuance of stock $133,287
Net loss for the period ( 332,725)
--------
($199,438)
========
Depending upon the Company's performance and market conditions, the
exercise of outstanding warrants could produce additional proceeds. There can
be no assurance that any warrants will be exercised.
In February 1995, the Company reached an agreement with a supplier of new
equipment originally ordered in 1990. Delivery is expected during the fourth
quarter of 1995 pursuant to an 11 month purchase agreement which requires
payments in 1995 of approximately $200,000.
Cash used in operating activities for the Current Nine Months was $162,717
as compared to $699,755 used in the Comparable Nine Months. These uses of cash
result primarily from the increase in inventory and accounts receivable during
both the Current and Comparable Nine Months.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $195,476 in the Current Nine
Months as compared to $583,365 used in the Comparable Nine Months for the
purchase of new equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $431,294 in the Current Nine
Months, as compared to $880,747 provided in the Comparable Nine Months. The
current unused credit line as of September 30, 1995 was approximately $803,000.
