MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
MARCH 31, 1996
Net income increased $128,879 to $47,306 during the three months ended
March 31, 1996 when compared to a net loss of $81,573 during the same period
last year. Net income increased $244,493 to $173,559 during the six months
ended March 31, 1996 when compared to a net loss of $70,934 during the same
period last year.
The increase in net income can primarily be attributed to the improvements
in gross profit and reductions in selling, general and administrative
expenses.
As a percentage of sales, gross profit increased to 37.3% during the three
months ended March 31, 1996 when compared to 30.1% during the same period
last year. Gross profit increased to 38.8% of sales during the six months
ended March 31, 1996 when compared to 32.1% of sales during the same period
last year.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased $110,666 or
15% to $625,455 during the three months ended March 31, 1996 when compared
to $736,121 during the same period last year. As a percentage of sales,
SG&A expenses decreased to 33.6% during the three months ended March 31,
1996 when compared to 36.3% during the same period last year. For the six
months ended March 31, 1996, SG&A expenses decreased to 32.2% of sales
when compared to 34.8% during the same period last year.
Net sales decreased $166,522 or 8.2% to $1,861,488 during the three months
ended March 31, 1996 when compared to net sales of $2,028,010 during the same
period last year.
For the six months ended March 31, 1996, net sales are essentially
identical (down $39,224 or 1% to $3,952,503) when compared to net sales
of $3,991,727 during the same period last year.
Cash and cash equivalents increased $494,505 to $1,015,181 at March 31,
1996 when compared to $520,676 at September 30, 1995. The increase is a
result of $741,836 in net cash provided by operating activities, $51,984
in net cash used for capital expenditures and $195,347 in net cash used in
financing activities.
At March 31, 1996, the Company had available aggregate lines of credit
totaling $600,000. In addition, the Company has a Letter of Credit facility
available, for up to $500,000, which will be secured by specified inventory
being purchased.
Management believes that its working capital requirements for the forseeable
future will be met by its existing cash balances, future cash flows and its
current credit arrangements.
